LOCAL HAPPENINGS. The Toronto Iixltlbltiorr, The price list for the next Toronto In- dustrial lair, which is to be he'.d from the 7th to the 19th September. has been issued. Conic: can be procured by drop, ping a poet mead to Mr. Bill, the secretary, at Toronto. Lawn Soolal. Strawberries, cream an cake, and cake, cream and strawberries were in constant demand by the merry throng which. gathered on the grounds surrounding James•st Methodist churelt on Friday evg. Before such a well sustained attack, the refreshments rapidly gave way, and con- stant reinforcements from the caterer were requisite to keep up a bold front The lawn social was one of the most successful held this season, and like others of the kind was mainly due to the management of the ladies. The leetare room was turned into a banqueting hall for the time being, and was crowded all evening. Gaily color- ed lanterns and convenient seats were distributed throughout the grounds. Among those taking part in the program were Misses Eacrett, of Sarnia, Messrs. Brown and Senior, Rev. Allen, Centralia, Miss Mande Hicks, and the Orchestra also rendered valuable assistance. The pro- ceeds amounted to $77. 'r' Refused the Right to Vote. At the Diocesean Cynod of Huron, which was in session last week, a resolution was introduced to allow women to vote at ves- try meetings, but, after some discussion it was withdrawn. Speaking of the motion "the Bishop expressed his astonishment that so many members of the historic Church of England should be in apparent baste to make one of the most revolution- ary innovations that could be made in its principles. He asked them to pause in view of the far reaching effects of the change, the wisdom and practice of other lands being against it. He held woman in too high an estimation to desire to see her dragged into the arena of dispute and difference of views, such as must be pre- sent at the business meeting of the church. The Bible said women were to learn from their husbands. His Lordship paid an eloquent tribute to the sex, speaking of the lbalo around the house where a true woman was, and the peace to be found only there. He would admit the question to the wis. Blom of the Synod, hoping they would be guided to a right decision." The receipt of the Western Fair Prize List reminds us that "The" Great exhibit- ion will be held in London, September 17. We notice that particular interest is being taken in Dairy Products, judging from the the number of Special Prizes offer- ed for Cheese and Butter. The secretary informs us that the manufacturing in, the Main Building, which proved such an at- traction last fall, will be largely increased and improved this year. A first class Speed Programme has been arranged in selecting the best Special Attractions avail- able. , If any of our readers have not yet received a prize list they can procure one by addressing a card to Mr Thos. Al .Browne, the secretary who assures us that it will be a pleasure to forward same. Their gentle action ndg good effect On the system really males them a perfect little pill They please those who nee' them. Carter's Little Liver Pills may well be termed "Per feetion."'

She was wanking serosa a hard staple floor, assieteri by a stiek. which slipping, allowed the old lady to fall heavily to the floor with the above results. The Exeter Ninth foot ball club went to Brumfield on Friday last and suffered defeat at the feet of the Brimfield Juniors The i3rueeticlditesseem to be very expert at this sport as they have drubbed several other clubs this season. At the suggestion of THY. TIMES last week, Stephen Powell was at once given the job of cutting down the burdocks and thistles growing at the edge of the side- walks throughout the town; and Low the streets present an improved appearance Mr Jae Snell hes had his resiienee opposite the Main street Methodist church raised and reshingled, a new kitchen built, and a large cellar put underneath ; and when repainted, the improvements will add materially to the value of the property. The oratorio, "Crention" will be render. ed in Exeter some time in September, in connection with a musical festival, by some 80 voices, selected from different places throughout the county. This is a diflieult drama and will require a great amount of practise. The engineer completed the gravelling throughout town an Wednesday. This branch of improvement this year has cost considerably over $1,01.10. The council will meet on Thursday evening to pay the accounts in this connection, We fear that our taxes will not be any lower this year than last. Rev W. McDonagh preached his intro- ductory sermons in the Main-st Methodist church, on Sunday, to very Iarge congre gations Both discourses were interesting, full of deep thought and no doubt created a favorable impression on those present. We welcome Mr McDonagh to Exeter, and trust that bislaborshere may abound with fruitfulness. Those teachers who attend the National Educational Association Convention at Toronto, July 14 to 17, will be charged single fare. In order to take advantage of this cheap rate it will be absolutely necessary that they go to Toronto with the certificate from their inspector that they are bona fide teachers. The residence of Mr R. W Coates, 28 Stanley street, London, was entered by thieves in broad daylight Friday, through the cellar window The house was pretty thoroughly ransacked, and the visitors secured 830 belonging to Mr Henry Coates, who is the only or,e of the family at present in the city. Mr C. formerly lived in Elimville. THE TIMES is published this week on Wednesday morning (one day earlier than usual), in order to allow our employees to celebrate Canada's national holiday in common with all true Canadians. There is nothing unusual transpiring in Exeter,and we believe that the greater number of the young folk will spend the day at the lake. We trust all may realize to the fullest ex tent their anticipations. The members of the Aylmer Methodist Church and congregation made up a little purse of between $40 and $50 and present- ed it to Rev Dr. Pascoe on the day of his departure, as a slight token of the esteem in which he was held by them. On ac- count of his daughter's illness it was not deemed advisable to make any outward demonstration of regrets at his departure ;- so this quiet means was taken to show their appreciation of his services. Monday Messrs Baliewill Jr Son shipped from Exeter station, a car load of fat cattle for the European markets. They were a fine lot of cattle. Among the number was a mammoth ox, which turned the scales at 2500 lbs, stood six feet high and girthed 12 feet.The.others of ,the load which were large`beasts, were made to appear sans)) by the enormous size of this ox. It' goes to the Old Country and will realize about $150. It was purchased. of Mr Dennis Sutten, of Corbett, and is the last of the large band of oxen which has done good service in the back of Stephen township.

Eacrett, formed an imposing proeessiin, The centre of the church was reserved for the members of the craft, while the side isles wore oeoupied by the general public. The sermon was preached by Rev W. Martin, B, D., and was an able and elo- quent effort, the subject being "True Manliness.' At the conclusion of the ser- vice the brethren again fell into line and marched to the lodge room, where hearty and unanimous votes of thanks to the Rev. :11r Martin. the choir and the officials were passed. A number of visiting brethren irom Crediton and other places were pre• sent and joined iu the service, Personale. T heisses Edith Verity and Maud.

Tho next meeting of the east and west Huron Teachers' Associations will be jointly held in Clinton on September 10th and lltlr. The markets remain somewhat steady --•a slight increase in price in some grains, decrease in others. Wheat is worth 98c per bush. Tourist excursions, by ocean, lake or rail.

Mr Solomon Manning has disposed of his interests in the flour and feed busi- ness to Mr Rubt Richardson, of this place, who takes possession at once. A local exchange in this county says "A newly made J. P., not a thousand miles from here, opened his first court recently by ordering the constable, in a pompnus tone. "Tiring forth the accurs- ed, and 1 will read the depredations." During the past year Oddfellows have distributed in'relief $1,500,000 and since the founding of the Order over $56,- 000,000. No man who has reached out his hand to receive that relief has been humiliated; it was not a gift, nor charity it was his due, his right. There are grubs at the cherries, grubs at the plums, grubs at the berries, grubs at the currants, grubs at the vegetables, grubs at the roots, grubs at the grain, grubs at the business of the country, and the family grub is getting dearer and dearer every mother•son of the day, and still there is no help for it. A practise shooting thatch among mem- hers of the Exeter gun club took place on Monday evening, with the following re. eult :-Ed Bissett. 10; P. Parncombe 5 ; A. J. Snell, 6; D. Johns, 5; I. Handford, 10; W. J, Carling, 7 ; J. Wood, 9, The above members of the club with the excep tion of W. J. Carling, go to Clinton today to shoot with the Clinton team, for the championship of Huron. A by-law prohibiting dogs from run- ning at large is just' as essential as one prohibiting cattle, sheep and swine, and such a°by-law would prove a blessing to the majority of property owners. A good dog has a much better chance to develop his usefulness about his owner's home. than he has on the street, and if he is useless, as most of them are,, take him to the woods and quietly shoot him. The Blue Ribbon meeting of the De- troit Driving club will open on July 20th and continue until the 25th. Nel- son the king of the turf will start and show his marvelous speed. His record is 2.101 and it is expected that this, will be the effort of his life, possibly beating the record of Maud ` S. Nelson is a wonderful horse and to see him trot will be a privilege possibly never to occur. again.
