The weather on the 24th was fine and
not too hot. The local celebration con•
sisted entirely of athletic sports, games,
trotting and running races and a military
tournament. The 28th Battalion Band
was in attendance, and everything pee-
ved off without a hitch. The attendance
is estimated at from 1,200 to 1,800, and
the Mitchell Sporting Association scored
another financial :moose The street
procession in the morning consisted of
a troop of eighteen mounted men armed
with swords and lances, with medieval
uniforms. Following them came the cal-
ithumpians. The following are the prin-
cipal events of the day :—Baseball tourn-
ament --Mitchell 1, Monkton 2. Football
—Mitchell and Sebringville : 2 to 0 in
favor of Mitchell. Trot and pace -1, Car-
lisle ; owner, J. Long, Monkton ; 2, Lady

Kelly, Kinkora. The military tourna-
ment was attractive, and consisted of the
spiral ride and mounted lance exeroise •

W. B. Waterbury, and tilting at the ring
by the mounted troops under the direct
Hon of N. W. Cull.

Wingham. After dinner the game was
renewed when Wingham took acerber
goal; time winning the $20.00.
It was past two o'olook when the game
of the clay, so far as the interest in it of
the immediate citizens of Luoknow (vas
oouoernod began. The games was an
Beavers
ers
exhibition one betweenSeaforth
and Luoknow Dropoboto, junior ahem -
pions of Huron and Bruce, respectively.
The game was really an exhibition one of
no ordinary kind and was pronounced by
many as the cleanest game of lacrosse
they had ever aeon. Very little rough
play was indulged in although Jimmy
Yule received an ugly wound on the head.
The game resulted in a victory for the
visitors by 2 goals to 1.
The next event brought on was the
senior laorosse match between Goderioh
and Wingham, for 18 beautiful medals.
The game all through was hot, furious,
and rough, and the wonder is, that more
of the players wore nob injured. Two
Luoknow men played with Goderioh, and
one of them, Tim Kirk, snored the first
end only goal taken in the hour's play,
thus wining the game and the medals.
A grand oonceetin the evening brought
the celebration toe close,

The concert in the evening was well at.
tended. The program was furnished by
the Lamont family, of Listowel. It com-
prised vocal and instrumental mu0io and
recitations, all of a high order. Miss
Ducker's violin solos were wonderful for
one so young, w11110 the quartettes, etc.,
could not well be improved upon by ama-
teurs. This company are the coming

CHEESE MAaaET,—The first fair and the
annual meeting of the Listowel Dairy-
men's Board of Trails was Held in the
Institute rooms, on Thursday of last
week, The auditor's report was confirm-
ed, showing a bslanoe of $15:06 on band.
S. MoAllister, of Donegal faobory, was
elected president. At the call three fat).
torics were sold; Aehileld, Paramount and
Pine River at 10 oents. At the close of
the gall J. W. Wheaton, B. A., Secretary
of Western Dairymen's Assooiation,Lon.
don, addressed the board, advising there.
tention of the call system ander stringent
rules and giving an aoaount done by the
Association Instructor. A motion was
brought up by the buyers to make it a
rule that all cheese bought et the board
be weighed at up beam more than weight
marked on the boxes, and no fractions of
a pound be taken into account. The
bbyera advocated this rule for the reason
claimed by them that weights in the wast
did not hold out in the old country as well
as weights of Eastern cheese, which
were sold subject to weights being guar.
anteed at Montreal. In oo1sequenoe of
this they said their oustomers were not
willing to pay the prior; for Western
cheese, and the condition of affairs tend.
ed to damage the reputation of cheese
made in Western Ontario. The propos-
ed rule met met with almost unanimous
oppoeition from the salesmen who claim-
ed that net up beam weights only should
be given, without fraotions. An extreme
case has been cited ebowiog the differ-
ence in the rules. A cheese going up
beam at 6q pounds, would under the
new rule be harked 68, under the old 69
pounds, A resolution was carried to ad.
here to the old praotioe. Robert Italian.
tyne thereupon read an agreement sign-
ed by all the principal buyers binding
themselves to buy only under the half
pound rule. This agreement was signed
by 5. T. Brill, T. Ballantyne & Son. W.
P. Hibbert, J. W. Cooke, Hodgson Bros„
C. W. Riley, and J. L. Grant. Mr. Bal.
lantyne stated that the bnyere had wait-
ed until all the boards had passed upon
the proposition before announcing their
position. The rule had been adopted at
Brantford, Woodstock and Sbelburne,
and rejected at Ingersoll, London and
Listowel. The buyers claimed the rale
would work in the interests of the pro-
ducer. There is however, a strong, feel.
ing amoug the factory men not to submit
to it.
