SUDDEN ()ALL. -Last week this
locality was shocked to hear of the
sudden decease of Ohara. J. Rintoul, a
highly esteemed resident of the 6th
line, After a busy day cutting wheat
deceased sat chatting on the verandah
of his comfortable home with his
neighbor, Adam Somers, feeling as
well as usual. After Good -night had
been said Mr. Birrtoul removed his
shoes and had taken the first step on
the stair to go to his bedroom when
he fell forward unconscious. Speedily
he was taken back to the verandah
for air thinking perhaps it was a faint-
ing spell and a hurry call was sent by
telephone to Brussels for a doctor but
the latter stated deceased bad prob-
ably died instantly. While a hearty,
cheerful dispositioned man be had
a Bond weak spell last Winter but
only temporary. Mr. Rintoul was
born in the township of East Wawa -
nosh where he grew to manhood. 39
years ago deceased was united in mar-
riage with Mies Mary E, Stein of the
same locality, and site with 4 sous (W,
J., 6th line ; 0. A., of Woodrow,
Sask. ; A. G. of Knox College ; and
Chester at home) and 2 daughters (Nies.
P. D. McLertn, Belgeave and Miss
Maude at home) survive, to hold in
laving remenbranoe a kind husband
mud an indulgent father. Mrs. G. Gil-
lespie, another daughter, is deceased.
After living in Winghatn locality for
the most of his life 2 years ago Mr.
Rintoul purchased a fine 100 acres
from W, R. Mooney and they were
moat comfortably situated and ap-
parently ready to eujny the good
things.of life as welt as ever in their
lives, '1.'he subject of this notice was
a sociable, agreeable man, industrious
and honorable and acquainted with
almost everybody. He was a Presby-
terian in religion and a Liberal in
politics, ;Nobody could desire a bet-
ter neighbor. The funeral took place
Saturday afternoon, Rev. A, 3. Mann
conducting an appropriate service.
Interment was made in Wingham
cemetery, Palibeaere were Wtn,
and Jae. Pardon, A. and J. Stein, Jno.
Gillespie and Tag, Cardiff, Mr, Rin -
Mel is survived by 2 sisters (Mee. W.
Webster, of B.O. and Mrs, J, Ooultes,
Toronto) and 2 brothers (W. H., of
Wingham and Alex., of Wewanoeh.)
The family share in the deep sym-
pathy of many old friends in their
sudden bereavement, It is expected
they will continue to make their home
in their present location as the sons
are well versed in the management.
Mr. Rintoul was in his 1321111 year and

quite gay in her
holiday a t t i r
Thursday of last
week, for the au-n'S oual Celebratio,
tee.Banners across
the Main street
welcomed t h e
runny visitors and liege and banner.
Pates were in profuse evidence.
The weather-wise were none too
sure about the day brit 01d Probs. waa
in a kindly mood and reserved a down-
pour of rain for the following clay.
Thursday's weather was the very sam-
ple needed for outdoor gatherings.
Shortly after 10 a. m. the Jazz Band
arrived from Guelph and at once com-
menced to enliven the proceedings
by both music and uniform. Not easy
to say which was the loudest, About
the same Lime the arrangements were
on for the water fight, on the bank of
the Maitland, nearithe Lowry Sale
stable Mill street. The Fire Engine
supplied the propulsive necessity, the
]nose was the vehicle for transmission
and the Maitland river supplied the
aqua porn for drenching the competit-
ors. Wm. Pawson and Sylvester Fox
assayed to drown out Juo. Harkness
and Harold ,laoklin but after a battle
royal, with 80 to 140 pounds water
preesure, the latter duet took the
largest quantity of water and won
out. It was great sport for the crowd
and the competitors did not appear to
be any worse of their somewhat
strenuous bath.
In the afternoon there was a fine
assenblege at Victoria Park to wit-
ness the program, Seating accommo-
dation had been provided and a large
platform. Galt tine Kittle Band lead
the procession and gave a number of
choice selections to open the day.
Wingham and Brussels faced each
other in a League match on the Base
Ball diamond and gave an exhibition
hard to supersede by professionals.
Wingham were in luck by jumping
up a score of 7 in their lst innings by
bad play on the part of the home
team. Notwithstanding this rebuff
at the initial stage they settled down
to business and did not allow a man
to cross the plate until the 9th innings
when the score was a tie. The visit-
ors got 2 and our lads were blanked so
the victory went to Wingham by 2
runs. No one begrudged them the
win as they worked hard for it. They
administered 5 coats of kalsomine to
our boys during the game. W. A.
Giewar was umpire. Telfer and Mc-
Lean was Wingham battery and Gee
andlBest held the points for Brussels.

The Julian acrobats put on an exhi-
bition on the platform of various acts
that showed they were experts in
their line,
Next came a Base Ball contest Kin-
cardine vs. Brussels and its character
may be judged when it is said 11. in-
nings had to be played to decide to
whore the honors would go, the lake-
side lade winning out, score 16.18.
This looks big but` Brussels got 9 of
theirs in 2 binings and Kincardine
piled up 7 in their Oth effort at bat
and 4 in the 6th, otherwise the scoring
avas small and close. There was
plenty of ginger in the play and the
applause was frequent. Here's the re-
cord ;-

After supper Wingham and Brus-
sels Juniors played a Foot Ball match
which was hotly contested and final
results were 1-0 for home team.
Players for Wingham were :-Forbes,
Town, Cantelon, Abell, Geddes, Me -
Lean, Moore, Harrison, Fry, William-
son and Aiteheson. Brussels line up
was r-Jacklin, Kerney, Harkness,

The referee was the redortable Menno
Jackson.
Evening Concert was largely attend-
ed as the weather was fine, A grand
program was rendered by the Bands
for several hours and the Julians per-
formed again. At a late hour the
Park resumed its usual quietude and
the big day once more over proving a
genuine success, program outlined
being carried out to the letter.
A dancing pavilion and other forms
of amusement were of the Park and
were apparently well patronized,
Electric lights surrounded the
grounds and east their friendly rays
on the evening's scene, Many outsid•
ere were present and not a few re-
unions were a pleasant part of the
Celebration,

The Galt Kittle Band will be always

fine music and plenty of it.
Barrister Dudley Holmes, Wing -

Many of our residents rallied to the
job of decorating their premises for

The Committees worked well cap-
tained by Chairman D. C. Roes, Sec-

If soft soap were added to the water
light and the hose turned loons it
would be a great method of present-
ing a wholesale sanity y bath.
"Jimmie" Hunter, Lucknow, always

What to do with horses and rigs on
a big day has been solved by the in-
troduction of the binzz buggy. There
was a great number of cars here last
Thursday.
While Brussels Base Ball team was
nosed out of each game they made
Wingham and Kincardine "go some"
to secure victories. It was most in-
teresting sport for the spectators in
both instances.
The Foot Ball participants not only
kept their eye on the ball but followed
its various ramblings over the Park
with a determination to "stay with
it." There was a great deal of come -
and -go in the match.
"That Jazz Baud was a joke," said a
spectator as he laughed at their an-
tics. That is the reason they have
more calls than they can accept.
