W. a, W. niums asket,, ns, J. rs, W. Sunshine. GARDEN PARTY. -The garden party held here under the auspices of the For- esters of this place on Tuesday of last week was a grand success. A large crowd gathered in the afternoon to see the base ball match between the Bel - grave and Brussels clubs. The Match, however, was too muchtone-sided to be very exciting, Brussels winning by a score of 22 to 4 runs. The Brussels brass band was in attendance in the evening, which greatly enlivened the proceedings. BRIEFS. -Mr. T. Nugent, blacksmith, of this place, is giving up business as his health is not very good. This i a good stand for a blacksmith, and as Mr. Nugent wants to sell or rent we hope to see an enterprising man here !before long. -A number of young men from Morris left for the lumber woods in Michigan this week. -Several of the leading farmers of Morris attended the Commercial Union meeting at Clinton on Tstesday.-This week will clean out the logs in the mill yard, and if all be true will be the last of the mill here. Lumley., OBITUARY. -The shadOw of death passed over this village and removed one of our early settlers.. Mr James Ni Stewart passed peacefully a ay on Thursday morning, the 22nd ' st., at the advanced aged of 85 years. Ile was a native of Argyleshirh, Scotland, and emigrated to this counhy about 30 years ago, and settled on lot 25, north-east boundary of Usborne, Huron 'county. Here, like many other pioneers, by his industry and prudence he was snceessful in clearing a good farm and seeuring a comfortable 'home. He was ia very healthy. person and had not been Blois since he came to Canada until about three or four months ago, -when he had taken a paralytic stroke, and f oua the effects of which he expired. Ele, how- ever, remained conscious up to he time of his death. He was a very q iet and unobtrusive man. His remain, which were followed by a large conc urse of relatives and friends were interred, in Martin MeTaggart's cemetery. 1 fdrtune to run a needle into her right hand. She suffered intense pain from the effects until Dr. Smith succeeded in removing the cause of the trouble. Ile had to cut the needle out, as it was biuiied over an inch in the fleshy part of the hand. A Home for the Poor., EAR EXPOSITOR. -An old blind nian losthis way a few days ago,and wan er- ed into the river a few miles below burn. Fortunately Fortunately the water was not very deep, and he waded across and was seen by some boys who directed hini to the base line. It is possible that he might have lost his way, or got into a hole in the river and been drowned. Another instance of the necessity for a home for the aged and infirm. The county of Elgin has a 200 acre farm, with a man and his wife in charge of it. There are from fifty to sixty who have a home h'ere, and all who can work are required to do what they are able to do to assist in the taking care of the helpless and infirm. The old men do the hoeing, miffing wood, and 'choring, and the old Women wait on the sick and do such household duties as they can perform. Thus by the able rnanagement of Mr. ffunsbergenthe farm is made to produce nearly enough to abay the running ex penses of the hone. Mr. Hunsberger has one hired man and a hired girl, the rest is performed by the inmates. This 'alight be considered mach a good thieg that the home would be crowded to over - owing. Not so, however, for every Pne has to pass an examination and get a. letter from the county judge before they are admitted. Now, Mr. Editor, why cannot a home Of this description be run in the county pf Hurn and not allow such poor unfor- tunates as I have referred to above to roam at will and be at the mercy of the ublic. Few would care to take such a an into their homes, but would wil- lingly pay their portion -for a home for the poor. Full information could be obtained from Mr. Hunsberger, Fingal postoffice, or St. Thomas. -HUMANITY. [We may recall to -the mind of our correspondent the fact that it is not the want of information but the lack of will that prevents such a place as he recom- mends being provided. The subject has been before tbe County Council nearly every year for the past fifteen years, and deputations have visited nearly every poor house in the country and have re- ported favorably; but when the matter assumed shape and came before the as- sembled wisdom it was invariably voted down. It is indeed a reproach to the large, wealthy and prosperous coun- ty of Huron that there is no place but the county jail, where poor, unfortunate and penniless people can be kept.--L-En. EXPOSITOR. Chis. elhurst. ACCIDENT. -While Mr. and Mrs. Fitz- gerald were driving home one evening last week a part of the harness broke, frightening the horse so that it ran away precipitating the occupants into the ditch. Mrs. Fitzgerald sustained some slight injuries, from which we are glad to say she is entirely recovered. NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. -Mr. Alex. McDonald, having rented his fartn, dis- posed of his stock and implements by public auction onSaturclay last. As the day was fair and bidding free everything was sold at a good figure. -Mn Peter Morrison has returned from his trip to Washington Territory .and purposes going back shortly with a car Of well- bred horses. -Messrs. Cantelon & Mc- Taggart are making apples scarce in this vicinity. -Mr. Wm. Davey is erecting a very handsome residence, and it is whis- pered around that he willaecure the bird as soon as the cage is built. A GOOD MOB.AL.-Quite a number from here attended the Fair at London last week. Amongst the number was one of our usually level-headed citizens who, thinking he could bettJr himself in the shoe line in the Forest Cityl pur- chased a pair. Imagine his Surprise, after returning home, when he was about to put them on to find that they were both for the same foot and numbers seven and eight instead !of number teris as he bargained for. Mbral :-Patronize home industries. PUGILISTIC. -Jack " Dempsey " and " Ryan " engaged in a hard glove eon - test last Saturday evening before a crowd of spectators. They both defend- ed themselves so ably that not a blow was struck until the third round,, when Dempsey got in one with his " right" in good style. At this juncture Ryan clinched his opponent and threw him to the ground. The contest was decided a draw as " Dempsey " was laid up by means of a foul. Wroxeter. RUNAWAYS -We had a very disastrous runaway on Saturday _evening last. A team belonging to Robert Hamilton started from in front of J. Sanderson's store, /Tuning into Mrs. Walker's fence and destroying it for twelve feet or more and. making a total wreck of the wagon. The horses were caught, hitch- ed up again to a borrowed rig, when they started off the second time, break- ing this rig also and destroying two sets - of harness. Mr. Hamilton barely es- caped being badly hurt himself. NEW8.-The moving of the Methodist church is proceeding !slowly; the rope has not beeu strong enough but there is anew one expected which will, do the work better. -Mr. Steve Playford, son of Mr. Samuel Playford, has been visit- ing in town. He is from Colorado, to which place he has returned making only a short stay. After corrAng such a distance his friends were sorry to see him return. -Mr. R.

A large num- ber are availing themselves of the oppor- tunity to become proficient with the pen, which is a mightier agent for good than the sword. WonTun COUNML.-The Grey coun- cil are making things boom this year. They have wisely expended on roads which were almost impassable a year ago. This is a step in the right direc- tion. We would like to see the council elected by acclamation for another year. Wiarrrro Cnass.-Mr. C. W. Bell, who has been conducting writing classes at Walton and Leadbury during the past summer, is at present conducting a class in the school house in School Section No. 2, Grey. The term usually consists of eight lessons in succession, each lasting one hour ancl a half begin- ning at half past seven each evening. Th.e class here consisted at first of 20 scholars, but when the term was finish- ed all were so well pleased that they unanirnously asked Mr. Bell to remain another term, and in organizing another class nearly all the young people in the section turned out and joined, so that the present class numbers about 50 acholars. Mr. Bell is undoubtedly one of the best penmen in America to -day and his specimens of drawing and. pen- manship can scarcely be equalled. He is a splendid teacher so that all, even the pooest writer, can, under his in- struction, soon become a good penman. Mr. Bell is a native of Pennsylvania and has traveled. extensively in the States ,and Canada, and his teachiog is inter- ' NMINIMMIMMINIMMIENIMMM News of the Week.
