Base Ball Tips, A game was played on the ball grounds cn Monclay between the married and single men of town. The spectators were numerous and enjoyed the manoeu- vres of some of the players. During the game there were no plays on the part of the single men worthy of especial mention ; but by the married teamsome creditable playing was done by Collins, Weeks, tlyndman and Andrews, who handled themselves in professional style. The base running by N Dyer Hurdon and E. H. Fish of the married men was admired by all and merited the applause given. The score stood 40-41 in favor of the married men. The large score may be accounted for, by the fact that the game was extended far into the twilight. The single hien not receiving their defeat in good grace, have challeng- ed the benedicls to another game to take place in the near future. D. Tait umpired the game, andgave satisfaction. —On Tuesday Charlie Stanley's team of Lucan drove over to Exeter and played a snatch with the a' Juveniles " of this place. Tho game commenced at 3;30 and the nine innings were complet- ed by 5:15, which proves that somegood playing was done. The match through- out was characterized by very sharp playing by both teams, each member of which handling himself in a admirable. manner, giying evidence that the rising. generation Wil 1 become ball-tossers.of a calibre far ahead of those who control the diamond to -clay. While the Lucian boys play good ball, we must with due gravity, admit that the "Juyetiiiles".' of Exeter are bettor practiced and slightly superior players. The store resulted 24-1.6 infavorof the Exeter "Juveniles." Ed. Collins of Lucan, umpire.—The "Exeter baso ball team" is diligently: practicinar for several matches which are on dit,—The Commercial Traveller's nine of London will play the Exeter team in Exeter shortly. We may Ox pest a good game as the "Travellers'' sae considered second to none outside the leagues. .Kass Mary Johnet� of 13a es t .onr tilr s street east, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Pr p'rayne, of Exeter, Ont. -London' Advertiser Bruasel:s 're Xxeter. The game at Seaforth, on Wednesday last between Britsaels and Exeter, .pf which short mention was made last week, was a foirtilnateone for Brussels team and an unfortunate one for the Exeter team. „Admirers of the two (rubs. Wore about equal in number and during the game the cheering was lend and. continuous. Exeter wen the toss and. sent Brussels to bat, and gave then a whitewash, Exeter in the lot inning made ohe run, In the second inning Brussels ran up five, owing to the over- throwing and ill luck of the Exeter' team, which characterized their playing. throughout the game. From the seooncl,to the sixth innings both teams made from, one to two runs, and in the sixth inning ruing Lxeter scored six ; but, Brussels obtaining such a good lead our boys were unable to redeem themselves. The game throagliout was most harmon- ious not a word of dispute arising, which speaks well for the decisions rendered by Mr Alex. Murdoch, umpire. There was very little sharp glttying clone, as the score 19 to 14 will show. At the conclusion of the game the majority of spectators gave their opinion that the Exeter team, was the atrongerancicould, they felt assured, defeat the Brussels ; offering to back theiropinlons by waging from $100 to $1000, or making a stake of $200 and have the some teams play for it, on the following day. The Exeter team also challenged them in many ways, to the advantage of the Brussels team, but they refused any aucl all of the challenges. The Brussels team surely realized that they got the game by mere chance, and that the Exeter team wasinreality their superior. We hope that before the season closes Exeter team willhave another chance to secure the championship.

RICHARD PI Voters' Lists, The voters' lists for the townships of Hay, Stephen and.Usbarne, and village of Exeter have been issued and posted up.; The.new franchise adds many names and changes the qualifications of many others. In Exeter the list contaius upwards of 600 names and nearly five hundred are entitled to vote at elections for the Legislative Assembly and Municipal elections, while 82 vote at Municipal elections only and 13 at elections for the Legislative Assembly only. Those qualified to serve as Jurors number 230.: �n Usborne there are 796 voters, 600 being qualified to vote at both elections, 128 at Municipal elections only, and 68 at elections for the Legislative Assembly only, 360 persons are qualified as jurors. In the township of Hay there are 992 voters. Those qualified to vote at both Municipal elections and elections for the Legislative Assembly number 874, while 76 'yore at Municipal elections only, and 42 for Legislative purposes only. There are 328 jurors in Hay. Elated with their success oyes Exeter we understand Brussels base ball team has challenged Mitchell to play a game for a stake of 8200, allowing our boys to choose two men from the Exeter team. We hope the challenge will not be accepted. Play- ing for money is bad, and our boys should show that they are above doing anything of the kind.—Dlitchell Advocate. A correspondent writes .—Many are mistaken in the idea that the Jesuits,' Estate Bill, Which became law on the 8th inst., gives the Jesuits $400,000. The property claimed by the Society of Jesus is valued at over$2,000,000. The Quebec government, as a final settlement, gives Jesuits $160,000 and the Protestants $60,- 000, while the lands go to the Proviuce. . This ought to be satisfactory all around. 1 Mr. Thos. Fitton has commenced the erection of another brick residence on Andrew-st. This will complete the sixth residence which Mr. Fitton has ha:l erect- ed in Exeter within the past two years, In this way Mr. Fitton is putting his capital to good use, and were others to follow his example and build saleable or rentable houses, the results would prove amicably satisfactory to self and town. We are pleased to notice that the coun- cil has at last had the open drain on Ann-st thoroughly cleaned out. This is a good move so far as it goes ; but it will not be long ere it is in as bad a state and as distasteful to the olfactory Organs. The drain being rough -bottomed will be hard to keep clean; and not until it is either plb.nkecl or tiled will it be in a proper sanitary condition during summer months, Toronto's Great Exhibition. SEPT, OTE To 21ST, There is perhaps not a city on this con- tinent that has made more rapid progress during the past ten years than the City of Toronto, and it is still going ahead. Its population during that period has advanced from eighty thousand in 1879 to one hun- dred and eighthy thousand in 1889, being an average increase of ten thousand a, years The attendance of vi-Ttors at Industrial Exhibition, which in 1879 was about ninety thousand, has steadily increased each year until last year it reached over two itnndrecl and fifty thousand. The number of exhibitors has also proportion ately increased, and the indications are that the Exhibition for the present year, which is to be held from the 9th to the 21st of September, will he greater and better than ever. . Although the buildings on the Toronto. Fair Grounds are already far more numer- ous and commodious than any in the country, the Association is expending over $20,000 again this year in providing in- creased accomodation in the way of new stables, a new poultry building and many other additions. They fully realize the fact that they cannot stand still, that their patrons. want somethiug better and greater every year. This is really the People's Exhibition." It is not as many uppose controlled by a stock company, but by gentlemen who give it their time and service for nothing, and their charter provides that every' dollar that is made out of the show must be spent in adding to and improving the grounds and buildings, so that the country and general public get the full benefit of whatever assistance they may give the institution by their annual patronage. . In addition ` to the grear Exposition U f L tvo Stock, Agrieu tural, Dairy and Horticultural products, Manufactures of all kinds, Fine Arts and Ladies' Work; etc,, there will be a much larger programme than usual of special features, of the most novel and interest• ing character that it has been possible to procure, full particulars of which will be given in the official programme to be issu ed shortly: 'There will be an international Dog Strew the second `week, and Pain's Great Historical Scenic production, the "Burning of Moscow," with grand pyro- technic displays every evg. Specially low rates will prevail on all railways during the two weeks of the Fair. Entries for exhibits in all departments must be made before August 17th, 11 our readers con• template a holiday trip this season, they good ply will a afforded ao orttinity of snaking it an enjoyable one if they re- serve it for the time of the Exhibition. Children Cry for Pitcher's Costorle El 1911 Nobody Has Yet Said that of Our Goods They are cheap—look at them in every light weigh them ;' measure them ; try them and way you will they 'are indisputably cheap goods, so cheap are they that ` a great many who hear about our prices, say a once the goods can't be goof]. WHY 0.AN'T THEY Can't they be good because no other merchant has yet made such prices on good goods. Again, _why can't they? Must we follow the old "dollar squeezing" method in prices. Must we tag after those who sandwich their goods between two prices, and call on the public to eat the sandwich and give thanks ? Not much. We don't follow anybody.' ' E LEAD OR LOSE. Why these goods are good, You should hear the in- fliction with which the skeptical buyer says these words. He did not believe us, but he is bound to believe his own senses. There is no going back on the, evidence of sight and touch. You cant deny as to our cheapness, and one purchase of our goods must make you admit that good and cheap go together with us.
