SUNDAY SCHOOL STATrsTies• —Rev.
Dr. Cornish, General conference Sta-
tistician, has just completed the Sun-
day School report for the past Connex-
Tonal year. It shows an increase all

The totals are 3,319 Sunday Schools,
32,671 officers and teachers alul 262,915
scholars, the latter baying increased

AN INDIa`` GauE.—When the game
of lacrosse is played without trying to
scatter each other's brains over the
ground,anoecasioual show of teeth,and
a few other scientific exhibitions oil
the part of the players, it will be some
pleasure for onlookers to watch the
gauze. Several knuckles without their
natural covering, an eye or two with
artificial shanty over them, were very
prominent features after the game be-
tween Mitchell and Exeter on AMonday
last, which resulted in two goals each.
Lacrosse is purely an Indian game and
the writer thinks in only fit for Indians
to play. ---COAL.
TRivIrs MEnxORIAL CHURczr.: Not-
withstanding the inclement weather
on Sunday last the attendance at the
Trivitt Memorial Church Anniversary
services was exceedingly large, the
thankot Bring amounting to $75. The
sermons preached at bothmorning and
evening services by Rev. M'Oosb, R.
D., of Chatham, were divinely el-
oquent, and without a doubt the most
soul -stirring that haye been delivered
in the Trivitt Memorial for years. Of
the two sermons the morning text was
probably most befitting the occasion,
taken from the 103 Psalm, 30 ; 'Praise
the Lord ! 0, my soul, and forget not
all His benefits," Rev, M'Cosh is not-
ed as one of the most sincere and earn-
est, workers for the cause of Christ's
church in the Diocese, andhis eloquent
and God -inspired words will long be
remembered by all who were present..
The music rendered by the organist,
Mr, Fred Knight, assisted by the Or-
chestra, was a treat. The ringing dur-
ing the evening was equally good.
The solo "Oh, bad 1 the wings of a
Dove," by Miss Davidson, was. most
favorably commented upon. Some
disappointment awaited the congreg-
ation when it was announced that Rev.
Hodgins was detained on acconnt of
the ram, from conducting the induct-
ion services: Rev. M'Oosh acted as
substitute, and in beautiful words,
characteristic of his sermons, commend-
ed the care of this parish to the rector.
N. Dyer Burdon, local manager of the
Molsons bank, and lay rector of the,
Church read •tne lessons. The te
-
poral belongings of the church.::'.s
presented to thenewly indu
by Rev. 11I'Cosh and the key 111
Wardens. The bells chins the
beautiful Church hymn "Let nal praise
God," to all of which Rev. Bray, prom-
ised the congregation that be would
do all in his power and with God's
help to labor for the interest of Christ
and his Church, and with the congreg-
ation while he remains theirrector. The
induction serviceC•hu f the o h arch is a
very serious one to contemplate, but
most beautiful in its design and object.
Owing to the enormous quantities of
fruit, fruit jars have advanced in price
nearly 50 per cent.
The Exeter croquet players visited
Clinton, Monday, and defeated the
team of that town by a score of five to

were the Exeter players.
Official notification has been re-
ceived that the Exeter Public Library
will receive this year a government
grant of $106. It now remains for
the public to give such a generous sup-
port as the Library deserves.
oldthorpe & Cullis, of Stratford
and Auburn, with Thos. Anderson of
the latter village, have bought 2,000
acres of timber limits in Michigan, 30
miles from the Sault, with saw,

George Moore, of Elizabeth, N. J„ is
the contractor who has secured the
job of laying 300 miles of track for the
Huron and Ontario Electric railway,
which is to connect Port Perry, Kin-
cardine, Meaford, and many other
points. Fifty or sixty miles of track
will be laid this fall, connecting Kin-
cardine and Goderich, Flesherton and
Meaford, and otherinterveulug points.
The Registrar -General has issued a
new form of notification to division re-
gistrars of information relating to
births. The first card issued did not
contain any provisions for stating the
residence of the parents, and this de-
fect has been remedied. The amend-
ed form must now be used under pain
of the customary statutory penalty
if the provisions of the Act respecting
he registration of births are not
complied with. They can be obtained
on application to theRegistrar-General
at the Parliament buildings.
Theie is at present in the county
treasury at Oxford $1,877 which was
collected during the time the Scott
Act was in force. The amount was
made up in fines which were imposed
d
on hotel keepers in the town" and
county and` has never been distributed
among the different municipalities.
There appears to be a doubt existing
as to whether the money belongs to
the county or to the different munici-
palities. We understand that an
amount from the same source lies in
Huron County treasury.
3. J. Rumohr, Parkhill, narrowly
escaped death by poison on Tuesday.
He put a quantity- of prussic acid on a

to letthe doglive . and threw the meat
ina stove in room atthe rear oo a of his
shop. A few minutes afterwards he
mened thestove door to see if the
eat had burned, when the fumes of
poison rushed into his face and so
overcame him that it was with dif-
ficulty that he was restored.
