Four t teams were entered in this competition, viz.: Newmarket, Bradford,lAthletioo of Toronto, and Seaforth. Seeforth was tied against Newmarket, and Succeeded in defeating that club Ion Wednesday morning by a score of 3, goals to none. Immediately after this game Bradford and. the Athletics lined p, the Athletics 3 being victoriou. In th afternoon the s Athletics and our boys 1ined up for the final. Seaforth were under somewhat of a disadvantage, having had a hard match with Brantford on Monday and having to travel all the svay to Toronto, while the Athletics were right at bome. Nevertheless the boys were determined to win. The game *a started about half -past three, and wa waged long and furiously until the refei. ee called time on account of darkness. 1 Although both teams did their utmost to win, the score wee a tie, two to two, when time was called. The game wee to have been finished Thursday morning, but as our boyS. had only enough With them for a team they were unable to play on ac- count of wounds received the night be- fore, and it is altogetheT likely tbet the Athletics will be awaided the game. This, however, will be eo great Credit to them, as our boys would likely have won had they been able to go on the field. 'The boys deserve greatIeredit, for what they have done, and we have no doubt • that next year they will sweep every- thing before them. : 1 1 . i i__ PREsitYTERT OF Ht:RON.—ThiS Pres- bytery mat in Blyth, on the 8th inst.

About this are too dee, and especially • oni the time also, another new o ce was open - Northern graVel road running through McKillop. •The wonder is that accidents from this canie are not more numerous. When the road -ways are sixty-sii feet wide, the roads could be as high in the centre as they are now and with a gradu- al slope reaching to near the fence on either side iestead of the deep ditch close to the.toadway as now. In fact several roads I know of are so narrow that the slighteet shying of a horse in passing or meeting another conveyance is almost sure to cause an accident. In some municipalities the pathmasters • have instructions from the municipal councils to make all road -ways at lea.et twenty-two feet between the water tables, but it frequently occurs that the vertebra: of cbuncilors is too weak to enforce the instructions, and as a result the nuisance of narrow roads continues. And only the temperate habits of the people save a the municipalities in this cbuntai from being mulcted in serious damages on account of the deep and dangerous ditches along the roadsides. Why will not some municipal council immortalize themselves and render the public debtors to them by setting a good example and widening their roads, do away witb the deep ditches,and thus add greatly to the public safety."

The camp breaks up on Saturdayeand the breve defenders of our country will be home Saturday evening. The special correspondent of the Clin- ton News -Record, Mr. Todd, one of the proprietors of that journal, who is a member of the force, makes the follow- ing references to the Seaforth officers: "Colonel J. 0. Wilson feels proud of the 33rd, although the number is less `than two years ago, owing to harvest season.—Adjutant J. A. Wilson is in camp for the first time with that rank. —Captain Roberts is a jelly good fellow, and his sociability is enhanced in that he is a very staunch Conservative,—Cap- tain Bays had a peculiar experience when °flecking his baggage at Seaforth. He is a barrister. A young lady claimed his trunk and wanted it checked for Wingham. She could not be persuaded that she was mistaken until Captain Hays opened the trunk, unpacked the contents, and asked the lady to don a bravo t" soger " uniform and come to camp. The Captain is still single but is now away on ,leave of absence. COUNCIL DOINGS.—At a meeting of the Council on Moqday evening the Mayor reported that the Western Insurance Company had paid the insurance money, $1,500, on the property destroyed by the recent fire, and that the new hose recently purehased had been insured in the same company. The committee appointed at a previous meeting to enquire and report on buildings imitable for temporary use for town purposes, , reported that a hall in Kidd's bock can I be rented fora year at a rental of $100 land that $25 bf this amount can be used lin making ' necessary repairs. The 1 committee deem this the most eligible room in the town, as it is suitable for holding Division Court, council meet- ings and other purposea. Also that a buildiug situated on Main street, north of Forbes' livery -stable, eligible for a fire hall can be rented for $6 per month and they.recomnaended this building to the council for that purpose. This report of the committee was received and adopted. The fire, water and light committee we -ie requested to have all the Fire apparatus stered in the temporary fire hall except no hose reel and five hun- dred feet of hose and that storage for this be procured in some other part of the town. The finance committee were authorized to dispose of the town safe, which was i jured by the late fire, to the best advan age. . The fire and water committee were authorized to purchase the supplies asked for by the chief of the fire -brigade, eteept the new carts and hook and ladder wagon, on the most advantageouS teims possible and the council accepted the offer of Reid tk i Wilson to supply two hose carts on approbation and the offer of Mr. John Smith to construct a hose cart the same as the, small cart formerly in use by the fire thrigade. A special commit- tee consisting of the Reeve and Council- lors Tyermap and Beattie was appointed to prepare la rough plan of a suitable building containing fire hall, clerk's office, court and council hall, lock-up, hose tower, lac., and an estimate of the probable •cOst of the same, also the Mayor, 'Deputy Reeve and Councillors Good and !Duncan were appointed a committee to look out suitable sites for said building and the cost of the same, and that both committees have power to add to their; number if they desire and to report to the council at its next meet- ing.

As both teams were tie in the number of games won and loat, the final match had to be played on neutral grounds, so Stratford was the place picked on for the pine. Arriving at Stratford, our club wise met it the !station by their President, Mr. W.

After the faceoff the rub- ber went in a direct line for the Brant- ford goal, and after ac!engtby scuffle in front of the goal one f Brantford's men secured the ball and passed it down on Seaforth's goal, -,nd ilfeer a few minutes play they succeeded in winning the first and only goal in their favor during the match. After this the Brantford Club was not "in it," as Seaforth had it all their own way, and as play went on cheer after cheer renthe 4ir for each It good play that was m de by our "boys." The 2nd, 3rd, 4th an 5th. goals were scored by Seaforth, P., Mcc,osh scoring two, Meredith one, and Freeman one.
