It Says : "0n Tuesday the spring show of entire stock was held on the Market Squire, it being considered the moat convenient place. A citizen coming down street, and seeing the . large crowd asSembled, formed a very different conclusion than the right one, as to the 'cause of the crowd. "Why, the Salvation Army has come to town at last," he joyfully exclaimed to a com- panion, "and they've got splendid horses with them too; I'm SO glad, because there's plenty for them todo here; wonder where their band is, and their women -prayers, and— "Why,, you simpleton, this ain't the Salvation Army," said his companion, 44 its a stallion show." And the worthy citizen was so taken back by his mistake that he eat dowp, in four inches of mud fore he realized what he was doing.'c Then he rose up and—swore." The Clinton New Era of last week says: On Tuesday a meeting was held in the Temperance hall here, for the .purpose of forming a County Temper- ance Association. Among the repre- sentatives present were Messrs. D.Cum- ing, Leeburn ; F. Metcalf, Blyth Rev. A. E. Smith, Manchester; R. Adams and A. Woodman, Londesboro ; A.Hale, Clinton. The following motions were carried: Resolved that it is desirable to form a district county lodge, to em- brace all lodges 7aow in existence in the comity, with any other lodges that may be organized in the county, who may wish to join with us, It was decided that representation to the county lodge would be one to every ten members. After some other minor matters were attended to, it was decided that the next meeting be held on the second Monday of May, at 10.30 a.m., in the Temperance hall, Clinton. A meeting was held in the Baptist church, in the afternoon, to consider the advisability of submitting the Scott Act in this county. Mr. Searle occupied the chair, and a number of those present gave . their views on the matter, All were of the opinion that it would be asirable to submit the Act, but there being so many other meetings just at present engaging the attention of temperance workers, it was deemed best to appoint a committee to confer with adjacent counties, and learn what tthy intend doing, and then call a convention to be held in Clinton to make final arrange- ments foronzbmittan' g the Act. — -.01111,M j :j 1
