CURLING- MATCH.—A very interesting
and keenly contested curling match wes
played on our rink on Tuesday
between two rinks from Wiughaan
and two rinks of this place. The claiy
being clear and frosty the ice was in ex-
cellent condition, affording the playees
every change of putting in their best
shots, and the keenest competition for
the championship was manifested from
the very start, but as the day wore op
and the game advanced our home play-
ers kept forging ahead, and at the close
of the game they had the satisfaction Of
beating their opponents, a ho, by the
way, are excellent players and fine gen-
tlerminly fellows, by six shots in all.
TEAMEETING.—The annual tea -meeting
in connection with the Methodist Churc
was held on Friday evening last. The
tea was served as usual in Coxworth's
Hall and. was such as reflected the great-
est credit on the members and friends
of the chauth as excellent cooks and
liberal providers. After tea was served
and all had done ample justice to thp
good things provided, a move was made
for the church where an excellent
literary and muaiettl program -me was in
store. The Rev. R. Godfrey, pastor,
occupied the chair in his usual able
and pleasing manner and after a few
short and appropriate remarks called
upon the choir to furnish some music
which they did in a manner that pleas-
ed the audience and at the smile time
did. credit to themselves. The Revs.
P. A. Fear and O. H. Bridgeman, of
Hensall, and Rev. Mr. Hart, of Varna,
then in turn gave short and interesting
addresses which were listened to
throughout with,. f-nuch attention and
interest, the addresses being inter.,
spersed with fine musical selections
from the Exeter Harmonica Band and
the choir, which were well received
judging from the encores called for.
0 -un TOWN.—We notice that our grain;
men are shipping large quantities of
barley out these last few days. There
have been about 70,000 bushels of barley
alone purchased on this market this sea-
son. Our market has got the name of
being the best market west of Toronto.
Farmers have been drawing far and near
to get the high prices, and our grain
men are well pleased with their profits
for the season. We can boast of one of
the liveliest villages in Ontario of its
size. Every department of business
seems to be represented by the right
man in the right place. This season
already there are six large brick dwel-
lings besides a brick store in the way of
erection with the brick and material on
the ground. We have not a town hall
or town clock yet for the township
would think it extravagance of us ask-

ing for such toys until we are able to
buy them withdut issuing debentures.
Our school system is not quite right
here, for most of our children have to
walk about two miles out into the
country to school, but as we axe young
and have only been adopted into the
school section we will have to abide by
it and hope for better. At present the
village presents a lively appearance with
wood haulers for our saltworks, which
are doing a large business under the
management of the owner, Mr. Geo.
MeEwen. The brine -from this well was
tested and pronounced to be the purest
and strongest brine of any of the Cana-
dian wells. The works have a capacity
of three hundred barrels a day.
Between the saltworks and the cooper-
age Mr. McEwen is manufacturing
barrels of every description, and he
keeps from 20 to 25 men employed.
Blake.
THE CREAMERY.—A meeting of the
patrons of the Blake Creamery was held
on Tuesday of last week. There was a

Steckle was else appointed Salesman.
Messrs. D. B. Steckle, Henry Cook, E.
Ess -ler and Hy. Eichart, Directors.
Messrs. Wm. Muldrew and J. C. Kalb-
fleisch were appointed Auditors. A
unanimous vote was passed ill favor of
re-engaging Mr. Park as manager of the
factory for the past year. The entire
make of the factory for the past season
has been sold, the patrons paid in full,
and all seemed well satisfied with the
results.
ACCIDENT.—While dratit!ing saw logs
to the Woodham mills onMonday Mr.
Win. Jacques' team ran away and hurt
him severely. Dr.' Irwin, of Kirkton,
was summoned, and the petient was cared
for as well as possible.
ANNIVERSARY.—The 13th anniversary
of the Elimville church was held on the
evening of the 23rd inst. Sermons were
preached on the previous Sunday by the
Rev. Dr. Pascoe, of Exeter. Notwith-
standing the inclemency of the weather
many friends turned out and enjoyed a
sumptuous repast as well as the addresses
of the able speakers of the evening. The
choir also rendered some excellent music
and did credit to themselves. The sec-
retary's report was read and showed the
church to be in a good financial position.
The receipts of the anniversary were
$56.77.

GOOD HORSES.—Last w ek we made

the handsome sum of $,200.. These
gentlemen, however, . still own four
imported stallions. Tw of these,
" Freedom " and "Lo hair," they
traveled last summer. Th other two,
however, they imported lhis, last fall,
and consequently they hav not made a
season with them yet. Qne of these,
"Turk," is a beautiful ba and weighs
nearly 2,100 pounds, end the other,
"Charming Charlie," is a brown and
brings down the- scales 4t something
over 2,100 lbs. They are both splendid
specimens of the thoroughbred , Clyde,
and they are the best of the many very
good horses owned by these gentlemen.
They will make a good teem to replace
the well-known and popular horses,
" Major " and "Rover." he Colgu-
houns and DOV78 have probably done as
much as any other men in Ontario to
make for this Province the enviable
reputation it now enjoys as a horse pro-
ducing country, and their enterprise and
pluck deserve emcees. We hope their
recent importations will prove profitable
as What benefits them benefits alike the
whole community.
