The inspector of the Fire Underwrit- ers' Association has resolved to instit- ute a first class system of fire protect- ion in every town. The officers of the 33rd Battalion • have named Friday, April 19th, as the date of the annual military ball, to be given in Clinton this year. Capt. Kemp wishes in this way to thank the citizens and firemen for the valuable aid rendered, in saving his resi- dence from destruction during the recent fire. The school population between 5 and 21 yearn of age is greater in Bruce county than hi any other county in Ontario, being 17,468 ; Grey comes second with 17,248, and Huron third with 16,829 • Of the cities Toronto stands first in this respect, containing 43,108, or about two-fifths of the entire school population in Ontario cities. The markets in the western States are dull and narrow again, and the range of prices was lower till Monday When they "„firmed up a little. The influence is now largely the woather,and the future of the markets is uncertain. In Ontario wheat is considerably higher, with sales of winter wheat at Ontario points as high as 67 I-2 cents. This is about as high as has been paid for wheat in a couple of years in this Isrovinee; The cause .of the advance is the searoity of the grain, owing to the small deliveries by the farmers .for •same weeks. The state of the country roads has not been favorable to increased de- liveries, and in view of the fact that they will not be better for a few weeks. at many points the'etitlook for wheat in our markets does not indicate lowest prices in the near future, 'C1I TRSPAY, APRIL th, 1,895 NAL HAPPENINGS.

Tenders are being asked for the con- veyance of Her Majesty'a. mail between Dublin and Farquhar, From present indications it would appear that a. new Methodist church will be built in Exeter this year, Joan Willie' sale of stook and imple- ments on Saturday was largely attended, and gond prices were realized. Several robing were seen in town last week. The ice storm of Sunday night would somewhat atartte them. Messrs. Prier and Armstrong shipped a ear load at hogs on Thursday, and Finlay ds IVioDonell a car load of horsea this week. Mr. Weismiller, of Heneall, oontradiote the report that he has disposed of hie line- men in that village. The item first ap- peared in the Seaforth Expositor, Deposits in the Post Office savings bank continue to increase, month by month. There is somewhere a good four•dation being laid for the business revival when it starts. The contractors of Exeter will have their hands full this summer. Besides the building of about a dozen houses in town, the surrounding country furnishes a large quota. :Last Sunday was review Sunday in the James street Sunday School.

Monday was all Fool's Day, and the biggest surprise was that instead of com- mencing the week with a spring like day, citizens were met with a sleet storm which continued all day. The last days ' of March exhibited the Canadian climate's :bitter ugliness, and winter, that once welcome guest, might go in response to en all -prevailing belief that it has been too long in the country. Wm. Lammie, of Hensall, was married last week to Mies Aggie Ranter, daughter of Mr. Leonard Hunter, of (Iaborne• Mr. Lammie has rented Mr, Murray's farm at Rodgerville, where they will in future reside. Mr. James McQueen, of Rodgerville, died on Sunday night after a lingering illness of two years, of consumption, aged 40 years. Deceased leaves a widow and five small children to mourn their loan, who have the sympathy of a large circle of friends, What oan be done by attentive and intelligent fruit culture in Ontario was last fall illustrated in the case of an Oxford orchardist, who obtained $800 for the apples grown on seven acres of land. The secret of this extraordinary crop lay In pruning, mulching and spraying. Mr. C. Bowerman, son of Mr. I. Bower- man, town, bas succeeded in his final examination, and is now a fall fledged dental surgeon. He is going to practice in Huntsville, Muskoka, Mr. A. R. Kinsman also passed his examination for entrance to the Dental College. A peculiar feature of the present depart- ing winter season has been the remarkable absence of heavy rainfalls. there having been very little rain all winter long. A result of this is that many farm cisterns, never before empty, are now dry and farmers are without their venal soft water supply. Last week we made note of the fact of all the newly washed clothes in town being splattered with mud. We find on looking over our exchanges that the com- plaint was general,and the reasons diverse. It is quite likely that the water which supplied the snow was drawn from some muddy creek. Monday was a very disagreeable day to be out. A sleet storm set in Sunday night which covered everything with an icy surface nearly half an inob thick. Tlie sidewalks and streets were as one sheet of ice and pedestrianism was a thing to be avoided Many were the nasty falls but 00 serious casualties have been reported.. Conductor Snider, formerly of the L. H. & B., will, in a few weeks, take a trip to the Pacific coast, having leave of abgenoe from his present duties ;for four months Fle will go by way of North Bay oyer the C. P. R., and stay over at all the Ieading railway centres to presch and lecture to the people. The Methodist church at Kingsville bad a close call from fire on Wednesday night last. A door leading from the choir loft to the reception room caught fire from a gas jet. The choir was practic- ing at the time and the fire was quickly put out, before much damage was done. Thie might also have been a case of sup- posed incendiarism. Some time ago the Ontario Government decided to institute Fruit Experimental stations at different pointe, Clinton will be the experimental. statioa in Huron, and, in about three week's time a represent- ative will be there to give instructions in fruit eprayiug, Some farm adjacent Will be eeleeted, and with the owner's oonsent a certain part of the orchard set aside for experimental purposes. According to the annual repent' of the grand secretary of the Independent Order of oddfellowa for the year ending Dec, 81, 1894, there was a net increase within a trifle of the beat showing since 1870, and twelve subordinate lodges were instituted. The total membership in good standing is now 21,662.

The farm of 150 acres, belonging to Mr. John Willis, gold under mortgage on Tuesday, was purchased by Rlr, Wm Penhale, of Stephen, for the sum of $9,330. Mr. Willis on Tuesday sold privately the 33 acres facing the Lon- don road to. Mr. John Treble, for 32,- 000. This property is well situated and adjacent to the village. Some years ago Mr. Willis was the happy possessor of this fine farm, but through backing h n sable notes for els arsons o persons, he lost 1 his grip, and bearing a heavy load, has gradually gone to the bottom. Death of 11ir. SobnAnderson, Another of the pioneers of this sec- tion died on Tuesday, in the person of Mr. John Anderson, at the age of 82 years, 3 months. Deceased had been ill but a week, and died from the effects of old age. Born in Barrickshire, on the borders of England and Scotland in the year 1813, deceased emigrated to Canada at the age of 16 years. During the cholera scourge, he worked on the erection of a Fort at Kingston, and subsequent years, until the immigration of his parents from the old home, ho became a sailor, making his home at Goderich.. On the arrival of his par- ents he left the lakes to work on a farm in Yarmouth, near St. Thomas. Sonie fifty years apo, with a brother, he came to Exeter and purchased from the Can- ada Co. the three farms now owned by Messrs. Harvey, Frayne and McCord, and during the early years was a coun- cillor for the then united townships of Stephen and Usborne. He married Mise Gibson, daughter of the late Robb. Gibson who resided on the Lake road, who until a few years ago shared his sorrows and joys, Deceased was a member of the Presbyterian church and a Liberal in politics, and was a very beneyolent man. His home was always open to the traveller, be he clergy or tramp, and Mr. Anderson was always the same genial person. Since retiring from the McCord farm he had lived on the Thames road and onjoyed good health. There survives him two sisters,. Mrs. Allison of Yarmouth and Mrs. Middlesmiss, who has lately been his housekeeper, both of whom are over 85 years of age. The funeral takes place today (Thursday) for the Exeter Cemetery. Decide to Re -build. A meeting of the Quarterly and Trustee Boards of the Main street Methodist church met on Monday even• ing to receive and consider the reply from James street church to the pro- position for union submitted by the ofliclals of Main at. church last week, as follows : "That this Board appoint a committee to wait on the official Board of James street ohurch,withaview to uniting the two con- gregations, the lata united congregations to meet in a new church to be built within one year. in a central location between the pros - est sites." There was a full attendance,Rev.Jaek- son, chairman of the Exeter District, occupying the chair, The following is a copy of the reply delivered by the Official Board of James street church "Resolved that we assure our brethren of Main street church that we have received their proposition most oordiel y and have given it our most careful consideration; and we further assure them that we are in favor of a union of the two congregations if it oan be effected without the sacrifice of too nnueh of the ma- terial resourcesand moral influences of the two churches; to ne the only way to prevent that would be for the oongrogations to amal- gamate for t e present in the joint and com- mon use of the James street property, keeping steadily in view the erection of a new church in some central location between the two present sites, and that sueh churoh be built as soon as it now seem expedient to the collect- ive wisdom of the newly formed Board of the united ceigreeation;'and .wo further reeorn- mendin order to the establishment of con- fidence that a site bo selected,b by proper committee as soon as the wo soots dsBide to unite; and that stens be taken at once to se- cure funds for building; and that this reply be forwarded by the handl of biethren Peter Prone, Chas. Snell and hos. Gregory on be- half of the Board." The question was discussed in its different phases by those present, and on a vote being taken the following resolution was carried five to one, the reply received being considered too in- definite : "Resolved that as ;the reply received from the James street church does not meat the terms sent in our offer fee ern published above)we loee no ft:rtber time, but proceed to rebuildon the old site.".

Hetvy avalanches of ice from the buildings on Main street, Tuesday, not only endangered the lives of pedes- trians, but caused a panic among horses.

The pathmasters slung the London road south should repair the road and make it passable. The snow being very deep, ,it iswith difficulty and great danger to rigs that the travelling public navigate. The Huron Medical Association held its next meeting on the lad of April at Clinton. A number of papers were read on various subjects, which were followed by the usuai discus- sions. The brass band enlivened things on Saturday evening by discoursing sweet music on Main meet. This was their first appearance this season, and the winter's practise has developed a great improvement. The Ontario Agricultural College has issued a special bulletin en planting and caring for young trees in an apple orchard, which should be widely read. It is timely in its contents and very full of valuable information, The South. Huron. Conservative .As- sociation met in Seaforth last week, but did not select a candidate. They decided to support any candidate who would give his vote in sustaining the National Policy. and advocate strict economy in the financial affairs of the country. It is an interesting astrdnotnicsl fact, that on Good Friday, April 12th, the heavenly bodies which gravitate around the sun will be in exactly the same position that they occupied in the firmament on the day that Christ died on the cross. It will be the first time that such a thing has happened for 1,862 years. Astronomers say that about noon, New York time, the moon will pass before Viginis (Spica) and hide that constellation for more than an hour. The House of Refuge committee will meet in Clinton on April 9tli, when Government Inspector Chamberlin, of Toronto, and Architect Fowler, of Woodstock, will also attend. At that meeting the rules and regulations to govern the House, and the duties of the officers will be outlined, after which they will be printed for distribution among the County Councillors and will come up for revision or ratification at the County Council.
