JUDY 8, 1887. „ Wroxeter. A Bio CROWD AND AN ENTRI, SIAS= CELEBRATIoN.—The twentieth anniver- sary of Confederation was celebrated in right hearty style, on the first of, July, by the people of Wroxetea and sueround- 'hag townships. The spirit of Jubilee enthusiasm and the patriotic regard for the birthday of our country, combined with appreciation of a holiday such as can only be felt by industrious people, brought together a large crowd, which began to pour into the village at an • early hour in the morning. A first-rate programme of amusementa had been pre pared At 8:30 the king and queen of the namsandwich. Islands—whose arri- val in the country had apparently been overlooked by the press—appeared on the streets seated in a magnificent two - wheeled chariot drawn by &pair of fiery, untamed working oxen. In their train -came a tong array, presumably of their Majesties' subjects, whose variegated costumes and intellectual countenances, awakened a lively interest among the humorous spectators. After performing a number of graceful evolutions, the glittering conglomeration retired to the shades of obscurity, and the crowd of visitors pursued their way to the agri- cultural grounds, where a foot ball tournament was at once begun. The competing teams were Wroxeter and reeswater, Belrnore and the Ironsides of Turnberry. The two first -mentioned dubs were very evenly match- ed and played for - en hour without a goal being secured by either. This was the first match for the Wroxeter club, which has been in existence only about a month, and its -sympathizers were enthusiastic over the way the boys held their own against their opponents. Time Was called and Belmore and the Iron- sides began play. The game had no more than got under way, when an accident occurred which put an end to the play, and cast a damper over the subsequent proceedinga, A young man named Jeffery, a. member of the Belmore club, came violently into collision with one of his opponents and received on his right shin the full force of the blow intended for the ball, the result being an extreme- ly bad fracture of the bones of • the leg. Dr. Brawn was at once called, and the unfortunate lad removed from the field. Later in the day he was taken to his home on the town line-Turnberry, about one mile and a quarter west of Belinore. This accident threw the Belnaore club out of the competition and a draw re- sulted in Teeswater and the Ironsides being pitted against each. other. The first half of the game passed without a goal being won, but in the second the Ironsides were successful in putting the ball between their opponents flags. This gave the Turnberry club 1st prize amounting to $10; 2nd money $5, being divided between Wroxeter and Tees - water,. A base ball competition was then begun, the clubs entered being Teeswater, Gerrie, and Wroxeter. The two first named clubs were matched, against each other but owing to the non- appearance of the Teeswater catcher that club Was forced to drop out of the competition. Wroxeter and Gorrie were then sent to the field and a lively game • ensued, the play being close and the re- sult in doubt until the finish when the score stood 7 to 6 in favor of Gorrie, who thus won ist prize $20, and 'Wroxe- ter 2nd, $10. This result was largely due to the exertions of the Gorrie pitcher, McLoughlin, whose curves the • home club seemed unable to find, and who was ably supported behind the bat by Nash. The Wroxeter battery was M,cHardy and Sanderson who also did good work. Oa the conclusion of the base ball match the athletic sports were at once begun. The winners of the various events are as •follows : Standing jump, Martin Simons, 11 ft. 9,a in; G. Musgrove, 11 ft. 9 in. Running jump, George Bugg, 19 ft. 5 in.; G. Musgrove, 18 ft. 5 in.

Walking :pole over river, J. Marks. The day was very warm, and the comfortable and shady booth, erected for the convenience of spectators were highly appreciated by the crowd. An elegant band stand was erected an the grounds for the occasion, and was occupied by the Teeswater brass bend, which discoursed aweet music therefrom, at intervals during the day. The Gor- rie company of the 33rd Battalion, under the command of Major Kaine, marched on to the grounds during the course of the day. They looked soldier -like in their white helmets and bright, red tunics, and skirmished, charged, and fired blank cartridge as if they had been veritable heroes of battle. The celebra- tion was a, grand success in point of at- tendance as well as aport, and the com- mittee in charge deserve credit for the • energetic way in which they brought the arrangements to so successful an issue. cheese at 9i- tents per pound.

We wish him continued suc- cess. BARN RAISING.—Mr. -Thomas Bolt's barn was raised on Monday. The captains were Messrs. Herb. Henning and Wm. Mitehell. Herb. won the race, the odds being a few rafters. The frame is a good one, and reflects credit on the framer, Mr. John Abrarn. After the raising the boys had a game of base ball.
