HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS.
Last Wednesday evening a very fast
and exciting football match was play-
ed between our boys and the Wroxe-
ter football team, resulting in a score
of 1-0 in favor of the High School.
On Saturday last the High School
football team journeyed to Clinton
for a game with the Seaforth Colleg-
iate Institute. Seaforth had just
previously defeated Clinton Collegiate,
thereby winning the Clinton trophy
cup, but our boys proved more than a
match for the Sertforth eleven. At
half-time, there was no score, but in
he second half both teams went forth
to win and to Peter McEwen fell the
honor of scoring the first goal. Not
content with this, Reid scored an-
other goal, and the score remained 2-0
till the finish. By winning this game,
the High School boys brought home
the Clinton Trophy Cup, which they
will hold for a season. The line-up
was as follows :-Goal, Gallagher;
backs, Wilson, Weir; half -backs,
Muir, elawen, Ansley; forwards,
Lloyd, McKee, Reid, Moffat, Geddes.
The boys mune home rejoicing at the
victory,
This In Colborne Township.
Goderich, June 5. -The little Village
of Dunlop, in the Township of Col-
borne, has been the scene of stirring
events within the last forty-eight
hours, The Ontario West Shore Elec-
tric Raliverry has been under con-
struction from Goderich to Kincar-
dine for about two years, and during
this time there has been a dispote
as to the manner in which the cross-
ing at Dunlop Village should be made.
The company desired to deviate its
line on to the highway for a short
distance. The township council claim-
ed this would be dangerous to traffic
and would not give permission to the
company to use the highway. In the
meantime, the company has had to
team its construction material across
the gap from one end of track to the
other.
After several unavailing attempts
to break the deadlock, the company
executed a bold stroke by putting on
a big gang on Friday at midnight to
ley the crossing under cover of dark -
nese. Saturday inerning the mem-
bers of the township council, finding
that a, march had been stolen upon
them obtained legal advice and on
Saturdey night, after the company's
men had quit work, they had the
track ell pelted up again.
The matter will now probably be
taken to the courts, and in the mean-
time the railway has to work over the
gap in its lines as best it can,

Drilling Contract Let.

expected to begin about June 15th.
Fine Horses.
Levi Galbraith of Howick believes
in raising good horses. Last week, he
sold a four-year old for 1300; this ani-
mal weighed 1700 lbs. after driving
twelve miles. A short time ago, he
sold a team for $600, one of them a
5 -year old, the other 4 years. A gen-
tleman in St, Marys secured this fine
team,

priate address, Prof. G. W. Cline pre-
sented Miss Paterson with a beautiful
diamond ring, the gift of the menibers
of the choir. After the presentation,
the young people were treated to ice
cream and cake. Miss Paterson is one

in her position as clerk in the post of-
fice, she has been attentive and
courteous,

Fruit Injured,
Mr, Cantelon of Clinton is an ex-
tensive dealer in fruit, and reports to
the News -Record thusly ;-"The early
plums will be a complete failure and
of the later varieties there will be het
a small yield, The entire crop will
not any more than suffice for 'the
local denaand, The eame may be said
of the cherries, There will be few of
the early kind and of the later varie-
ties scarcely more than will feed the
robins. As to the apples, there is a
heavy set of the Duchess, but the
weather is dead against the late
varieties, too much rain and not
enough sunshine. I venture to say
that what apples there are will be
spotted and scabby. Brit I don't be-
lieve I ever saw the fall wheat look
better and with steadier weather
there ought to be an abundant crop.
The spring grains are also looking
well,"
Successful Students.
A partial list of the successful
students at Toronto University ap-
peared in Tuesday'e daily papers,
We notice that W. J. McLean of Bel.
grave and Geddes Wilson of Wing -
ham passed the first year's exam, in
Medicine with honors. W. L. Argue,
a former student of our High School,
standerfirst in Chemistry and Miner-
alogy in third year. Robt. Weir of
Turnberry took first class honors in
Mathematics and Physics in third
year exam. Miss Marjorie Gordon
passed her second year's course in
Biology with honors, standing second
in her class./ This is a heavy course
and incluas biology, mineralogy,
geology, physice, chemistry, English
and world history, French and Ger-
man, Miss Gordon's success on the
heavy work of the second year Uni-
versity course is very gratifying and
creditable indeed. The Advance con-
gratulates these successful students. --
Want Him To Remain.
At the London Conference last
week, a delegation from Grace &mesh,
St. Thomas, asked that their pastor,
Rev. Dr. Gandy (formerly of Wing -
ham) be retained to that church as its
pastor for the fifth. year. This re-
quires special action on the part of the
conference. Every organization of the
church sent most pressing resolutions
on behalf of their claim. It is seldom
given to a minister in any communion
to spend so many years in the active
service of the church, and to be re-
ceived with such a hearty welcome, as
it is seldom that such great activity is
shown after so many years of faithful
and energetic service, to secure such
excellent results as those accomplish-
ed by Rev. Dr. Gundy. Ile has'been
51 years in the actiVe work, and in St.
Thomas, where he has been for the
past four years, he has attained a high
degree of success, His congregation
recently undertook to erect a fine new
church; and one of the reasons for
asking that Rev. Dr. Gundy be given
another year is so that he tnay be pre-
sent as pastor when the church is
opened. -[St. Thomas Times.
