The last game to be played in this district's schedule was that on Wed- nesday of last week when London was defeated by the "Huron Oaks" by a score of 21 to 3. Wingham boys were a little surprised when London man. agement oaid they would be on hand to play their game because they still bad a chance to win this district owing to St. Mary's defaulting their Wingham game. London brought up a different team, andthe first quarter of the game looked like a stiff fight, it ending 4-2, The visitors scored the first 'goal, however after first quarter the home team juet "played" with the Londoners and the remainder of the game was anything but interesting.

The lacrosse boys do not get the patronage they deserve from some of our citizens, There are those who get on lumber piles, wagons, etc. and watch every game, and never think to encourage the boys by giving them a few shillings to pay expenses. The Globe of August 21st hats the following to say of the Wingham lacrosse team: Weston, winners of the O.A.L.A. intermediate Group No. 4, will in all likelihood be ordered to arrange home and -home games with Wing - ham in the fleet round of the semi- finals. If they are it will be an interesting .series, as Wingham is' counted upon as one of the best teams that has ever represented Western Ontario for some time.

G, Karstedt, aw ell- known merchant of that place was found to be unsuitable for use by the family as it l:ad a very oily flavor, The latter part of last week the well was pumped dry throe times, then the pumping, if continued, would die- charge pure coal oil of bright amber color, which would give as bright a light as any of the beet American oil. The natives are now using the oil from the Karetedt well, and are enjoying the cinch, On Monday of this week lk r, Karstedt sent a couple of gallons of the oil to the government labetory in Toronto to be a amined x andee Toronto:), rh result of the ann:tlyels is awaited with great tenlriety by the citizens,--tMild- may Gazette, Personals w-.Y+�rir'M+www�n�w Mr. Arthur Newman is holidaying Seaforth, Mr, Harry Coutts of Berlin, is home for his vacation, Mr, Collar, of Wingham,, spent Sunday at Belgrave, Mr. Will Murch went West on Tuesday morning.

While visiting with friends in Ham- ilton last week, Mr. -John Quirk met with a nasty accident, He was knock- edddown by a motorcycle and received a blank eye and several other bad bruises. It was indeed lucky that Mr. Quirk was not seriously injured as he is in his 83rd year. Many :t, younger man would have been taken to a hos. pital, but not so with our esteemed citizen, he feels a certain amount of pride in the fact that he was able to mare the rifler stop his wild speed and pick himeelf out of the gutter, Some of Mr, Q Ark's friends wanted him to take the law of his would-be assassin, but he takes a different View and can't see where he would benefit thereby.

An intereeting game of baseball was played between the 0t,h, line ladies and a team from the 3rd. con, on Thursday evening last, in D. McGowan's field. The diamond was made smaller than the regulations called for, which prob- ably accounts for the large score, 38 to 15 in favor of the con. 0 team. The lineup was as follows: Mrs. McCallum, e. 011ie McGill Annie Scott p. Mono Potter Mary Cook e. s. Annie Ellis Esther McCallum let. b, M. Marshall Ella Taylor 2nd. b. D. Marshall Lily McLean 3rd, b. Janet McGowan Etta Cook 1. f. Mary McGowan Edna Cook c. f. Rebecca McGowan Elsie Wightman r. f. Annie McGowan The return match will be played next week on the 0;h. con. diamond in P. W. Scott's field. The Red Cross representatives of Blyth were present and got a nice collection from the crowd. The Patriotic Baseball game be- tween the married and unmarried ladies which was held in Luoknow on Thursday evening proved wiry successful. Over $70 was realized which will be used for Patriotic pur- poses. One of the special features was the lady policemen, Mise A. Boyd, Mrs. J. A. Glennie, Mrs. W. 0. Johneton, and Mrs. Will Holmes, who were more than busy arresting men, It was dangerous for a man to make a re- mark and equally as serious for him to keep quiet. A clergyman was hand- cuffed and on exclaiming that he had not made a remark was politely told that was the very reason why he was arrested. Another divine was seen to climb a tree while a lady was placed as guard at the bottom until he de- scended. Another gentleman was standing peaceably beside his wife and was fined for not talking to her. It ie certainly no use to arrest an editor though, one was taken prisoner and while driven in anauto to the police magistrate's office, made good hie escape over the back of the car. After being arrested the policeman accom- panied the criminal to the office of the police Magistrate, Mrs. Moorehouse Mitchell, who imposed a fine of not more than $25. The baseball match was well worth seeing and the ladies made some very good plays. Miss Isabel Douglas made a fair umpire. The score was 38.30 in favor of the singles. The married ladies were Mesdames Wm. MacKenzie, W. J. Joynt, Andy Stewart, W. L, MacKenzie, George Anderson, Robt. Thompson, J. E. Agnew, G. H. Smith, W. J. Douglas, The single ladies were Misses Mar- garet Irwin, Rena Gordon, Jean Douglas, Lorna Campbell, Carrie Geddes, Margaret McClure, Lyla Tay- lor, Fern Reid, Mildred Spence, Belgrave's New Physician. Dr. T. Guilfoyle, who has been practising with Dr. M. H. Gillies for the past three months, has taken a practice in Belgrave, and will leave this week for hie new field of work. Dr, and Mrs. Guilfoyle have made many friends during their stay in town all of whom join in wishing them unbounded success and much happi- ness iu their new home,-Teeswater News.
