DISTRICT MATTERS.
THOSE BICYCLES.—What is the mat-
ter with our town constable that he al-
lows pedestrians' lives to be endangered
every day by bicyclists riding their ma-
chines up and down Front street on the
sidewalks? Several parties have come
-nearly having a serious accident already
this spring. If our town constable has
not the power to put a stop to this busi-
nettle some one should be empowered to
do so at once, and if he has the power,
why don't he do it?-0Nn AGGRIEVED.

CHIEF MURRAY CHAIRED.—At the
meeting of the Fire Brigade on -Wednes-
day evening last, after ordinary busi-
ness, the members of the Brigade rather
aurprised their Chief by preseirting him
with a beautiful, plush covered, easy
chair and an address, expressing their
best wishes for himself and the estim-
able lady whom he has lately taken to
be a partner in life. On the address
being read and presented to the Chief,
he replied in a few very appropriate
romarki, but being so completely taken
by surprise he could hardly find words
to thank the boys for their kindly feel-
ings thus shown towards him. After
the presentation the Chief Was treated
-to a ride home in the chair on the
shoblders of the Firemen, they singing:
" 1 -•or He's a Jolly Good Fellow."
THE HOME COMING.—On Friday
icy -ening 'last Main street presented quite
'a lively appearance about train time.
The band, which had been discoursing
sweet music in front of the Royal
hotel for an hoar previously, marched
to the station, followed by a large
crowd of citizens. The object of this
visit was to extend a rousidal welcotne
to Mr. George Murray and his bride,
:who were expected home by train. When
the train arrived, and Mr. and Mrs.
Murray alighted on .the platform, they
were warmly welcomed by a large num-
ber of friends and Most warmly con-
gratulated. Being escorted to their car -
rive they were accompanied to their
residence by the band who played a
number of airs suitable for the occasion.
We unite with the many friends of the
young couple in wishing them a long,
happy and prosperous married life.
GOENG TO BLYTH.—We understand
that Dr. Ferguson, who has bei
practising here for soine time, intends
removing to Blyth in a few days and
will take up the practice of Dr. Sloan
in that vilbsge. We have pleasure in
being stele to recommend Dr. Ferguson
to the people in Blyth and vicinity.
They will find him a clever, skilful and
careful practitioner and a genial and
most worthy gentleman. During his
residenoe here he has been diligent in
every good cause, and both himself and
Mrs. Ferguson will be much missed in
church and Sabbath School work. They
are both teachers in the Presbyterian
Sebbeth School, and enthusiastic and
earnest members of the Christian En-
deavor Society. They will be valued
acquisitions - to • the social and church
circles of Blyth, and we beepeak for
them a warm and hearty welcome from
the people of that enterprising and
prosperous place as well as from the
good people of the aurrounding vicinity.
They will find them worthy in every
p ‘rticuler. The good wishes of our
citizens generally will go with Dr. and
Mrs. Ferguson to their new home awl
they will always be glad to hear of their
prosperity.
HURON' MEDICOS. -A meeting of the
Boron Medical Association was held in
Clinton, on Wednesday of last week.
The meeting was largely attended by
members of the profession from differ-
ent parts of the county. The President,
Dr. Smith, of Seaforth, occupied the
chair, and a lenge number of interesting
ceses were presented to the meeting.
Each case was carefully discussed, and
from the interest manifested in the
meeting there is every indication of a
lively interest being taken in promoting
the SUCO881 of this Association, which is
ono of the oldest in the Province. The
following resolution was introduced
and, after careful consideration, carried
unanimously :-Moved by Dr. Macdon-
ald, M. p., of Wingham, seconded by
Dr. Worthington, of Clinton, and re-
solved e--" That having learned of the
recent aetion of the Medical Council in
*eking the Legislature to so amend the
11 dical Act as to permit an increase in
th annual fees paid by members of the
m- sical profession in this Province to
su I port the Medical Council. the mem-
be s of this Association desire to ex -
pr ss their strongest indignation that
an attempt should be made to obtain
an hority to levy upon the members, of
ou profession any higher fee than that
no paid, being convinced that the fees
nib paid by students are amply sulfi-
de t with prudent management to meet
all he necessary expenses required for
the proper maintenance of the Medical
Co ncil." It was further resolved that
act on should be at once taken to bring
the matter oil the foregoing resolution to
the attention of members of the Legia-
lat re now in Session.
OWN Causerie -At a meeting of
the town Council on Monday le.st the
Fir and Water Committee were in-
str cted to have a new tank for street
wa ering purposes erected on the mar-
ke grounds as soon as possible,
as the 'present tank is not safe
to se on account of its decayed condi-
tio . The by-law fixing the reduced
jeri e for the electric lights on the com-
me cial circuit was passed. A resoletio was passed requiring all corpora•
tim employees to procure an order from
th chairman of the respective com-
mi tees for such town supplies as may be
re uired, and the council will not recog-
niz accounts for supplies procured with-
ou such orders, An application having
ben received from the olerk of Bayfield
as ing for the old street lamps, it was
dedded to dispose of the old lamps and
po ts, providing $4 each can be procured
for them, and the clerk was instructed
to notify the clerk of Bayfield accord-
ing y. There was no further business of
im Mance transacted.
