THE Clinton New Era of last week
says :—The Brussels Herald, whioh has

L00ELNo FOR OTHER WORLDS To 00N•
QUER.—Alexander of old linked the whole
creation of his day and then had a crying
bee because there were no other people to
hammer. Brussels Base Ball nine will
soon have to follow Alex's example as
they have defeated Milverton, Blyth,
Wingham, Clifford and Kincardine and
in none of the events were their oppon-
ents hardly a good second. The last
game was played on Viotoria Pack here
with Kinoardine on Friday. After the
oat -hauling they gave onr lads at the lake
shore we were a little dubious of the re•
suit but bad it not been for a substitu-
tion of pitchers in the 6th innings by
whiob the visitors piled up 9 rune it
would have really been a walk -over for
Braseels. Kinoardine plays goad clean
ball and has a cracking good battery in
NoOabe, the one arm piteher, and "our
own" Bob Ross, but at the aloes of the
4th innings the score card showed Brus-
sels 14 ; Kinoardine 8, and after the big
6th the visitors only soored 6 in the re -
maiming 4 innings, totalling them 17 to
Brunets 20 with a half innings to the
good. Neither teams played e, ober game
although there were numerous bright ex•
hibibions whioh evoked hearty applause,

BASEBALL, EH ? — The Wingham Ad•
vanoe
says "On Friday last
Winghamham
and Brussels baseball teams played a
friendly match on the grounds of the
Brussels teals. After this great exbibi•
tion (7), and the tremendous score rolled
up of 18 to 81 in favor of Brussels, we
regret we poked fan at Brussels last week
and take it all bank. What happened
our boys, we cannot imagine. One in-
terested in the game says be oounted 21
errors. Wingham beat Kincardine on
May 24th, then Kincardine defeated
Wingham ; next, Kinoardine routed
BrOesels, and then Brussels defeated
Wingham, and the scores are getting
larger and longer all the tiros. Come,
Wingham, wake np ; do not let this oo-
our again." The Times of the same
town remarks:—"The Wingbam baseball
club went to Brussels on Friday last and
played a game with the team of that
town. The more was 35 to 18 in favor of
Brussels. This is a large score and
neither team oonld have been any good in
this game. The Wingbam base ball olub
is badly in need of some "fixing" or they
will need to go out of the business. We
have the material in town for a good
club and we would like to see the boys
pull themselves together and do some
work."

waived a floral tribute as a token of kind-

King, of Toronto, Reeve Kerr and four
flower girle, Hazel Johnston, Luella Rose,
Millie Grewar and Norma Vanstone, fol.
lowed the prooeeaion in a carriage. On
arrival at the cemetery, and after a short
introductory ceremony, the sed, yet
pleasant duty of planing the beautiful
wreaths and boquete took place in the
following order :—Mrs, 0. M. O'Connor,
Jno. Parker, Geo. Hayoroft, Mrs. Geo,

Scott, Dan. Scott, Mrs. Wm. Smith,
Peter Thompson, Wire. Thompson, and
Alex, Webster. After the grave had
been enoircled, and the announcement of
the name of the deceased, the wreathe
were deposited and an appropriate verse
read. A most interesting innovation
this year was that at the graves of the
ladies mentioned above the four girls
dressed in white, placed the flowers and
than sang a verse of a hymn. Ib was
cleverly done and 'was a most pleasing
part of the oeremony. Short remarks
were made by Noble Grand Maguire,
Chaplain, Rev. 3, L, Stewart ; Grand
Secretary, King ; Boos. Robertson and
Paulin, Mr. Powley and Past Noble
Grand' Kerr, land after singing "The
moot Byo and Bye," the procession re•
formed and rebarned to town. There
was a large attendance of Brueselites in
addition to the Odd Fellows. A number

for several years, was tendered 1,banquet
at the Mansion House, 63 persons sat

removal and yet a hearty weloome ex.
tended to 1L, J, 111urdsu, hie successor,
who was also at the banquet, and respond-
ed to the toast "Monetary Iuebitatioue."
—A pleasing feature of the evening's en-
tertainment was the presentation of a
handsome diamond ring to Mr. Brent, by
ex -Warden Sanders, on behalf of the citi-
zens of Sbouflville, Mr. Brent feelingly
responded to the ex-Wardeu'e remarks.
The Stottffville Sentinel Bays :—"As all
know, the occasion of hir. Brent's depnr-
tnre was fraught with much regret and
sorrow, as he had especially endeared
himself to those that knew him well and
intimately, and also to those that came in
contact with him in a business way. He
had a pleasant word and smile for all,
and was still reserved, as becomes a man
in the position he 000upied here in 5touff•
