-John Douglas, a former resident of
Exeter, committed suicide last week by
poisoning himself. A dispatch from
Lexington, Michigan, dated June 2nd,
says: John Douglass came to Cross -
well, Friday, to work for Paupet, the
tailor, He was under the influence of
liquor all the time he was there. About
four o'clock Saturday afternoon he
went to Deadie's drug storefor landunum,
but was refused. He then went to
Graham's drug store and said he had a
sore leg which pained him considerably,
and wanted a small quantity of laudu-
num to bathe it. They gave it to him.
He then went to the Franklin House
and sat writing and scribbling until bed-
time. About six o'clock Sunday morn-
ing, the proprietor rapped at his door,
but got no reply. He then broke in the
door and found Douglass dead. The
bottle, with a few drops of laudanum
left, was found. in his room. He left a
letter addressed to his wife, Elsie Doug-
lass, Exeter, Ontario, saying: "I am
going to another land, farewell. I am
dying among strangers. -John A. Doug-
lass.

CHANGE OF ,13 USINESS. -Mr. J. W.
King has bought out Messrs.Smith,
Malcolm & Gibson's furniture ware-
house and undertaking business. The
litter firm will continue to run their
cabinet factory aa usual. They have
bought Mr. King's house and lot ad-
jacent to the factory.
BRIEF NOTES. -The wool Beason has
begun, and that article is now coming
in with a rush to the woollen factory.
Messrs. Sanderson & Miller are also
handling the fleecy product. -The bridge
over the Maitland has received a much-
needed new flooring of elm plank laid
down in a workmanlike manner by W.
D. McKechnie and A. G. Brown. -The
work of gravelling the streets and mak-
ing repairs was let by the village coun-
cil on Monday evening last. Albert
Paulin was awarded the Job at 19 cents
per cubic yard, -Mr. S. Y. Taylor,
Principal of the Public School, who was
recently elected President of the East
Huron Teachers' Institute, is endeavor-
ing to have High School entrance ex-
aminations held here, which would be
an undoubted convenience to the schools
of this section. -Mr. A. L. Gibson re-
turned from the hosisital at Toronto,
week before last, but as a thorough cure
of his disease has not yet been made he
intends returning thither this •week.
His friends hope that he may soon come
back again entirely restored to health. -
Mrs. William Douglas and Mrs. John
Davidson left this week on a visit to
their native land--auld Scotia. We
hope they will have a :pleasant voyage
and an enjoyable trip.
ELECTION ECHOES. -Election deer
passed off very quietly here, as it almost
necessarily does everywhere under the
ballot. In the evening, however, when
outside returns began to come in the ex-
citement commenced, and ere long the
etreets were filled with the partizans of
both sides shouting in turn as the news
was received, of the success of their re-
spective candidates. Local interest
naturally centred in East Huron, and
when the news came placing Mr. Gib
son's election beyond dispute,enthesiasm
rose high. A bonfire was speedily
erected in the street, and the member
elect placed upon an improvised plat-
form of dry -goods boxes. From this
uncertain perch Mr.* Gibson returned
thanks for his election, which he said
had been won in the face of determined
opposition and of more than the usual
quantity of calumny and falsehood. -
The village bell and sawmill whistle
blended in a night -long chorus, and not
until late did the cheering crowd dis-
perse satisfied that Gibson's majority
was bigger than ever. -On Friday even-
ing a few of Mr. Gibson's friends and
supporters from Gerrie paid him a con-
gratulatory visit, and a pleaeant time
was spent at the member elect's in
epeeches, music and sociability. -On
Tuesday evening the Brussels brass band
paid us a visit to serenade Mr. Gibson
and congratulate him upon his re-elec-
tion. They discoursed sweet music
upon tbe streets, were entertained at
supper -by Mrs. Gibeon, and formed the
mainstay of an impromptu concert got
up in the town hall, at which short ad-
dresses were delivered by the member
elect and ethers. The Brussels band
made a most favorable impression upon
our villagers as segards good playing and
gentlemanly behavior..

PERSONAL -We are sorry that, on
account of ill -health, Master Richard
Smillie has been for several weeks un-
able to attend to his studies at Clinton
Collegiate Institute. It has overtaken
him in a bad time for the coming ex-
amination, but we hope to see him soon
on hand again.
Locee BRIEFS. -The Royal Templare
of this village intend having an open,
free, public temperance meeting in their
council room next Monday evening,_
June 16. Readings, recitations music.
and an address by the Rev. J. II: Simp-
son, subject, "Woman's work and in•
fluence,' is to be the order of the even-
ing e we, hope the Templars will be en-
couraged by a full house which the pro-
gramme deserves. -The Sabbath School
of Union Church, along with the branch
school in Stanley are to have a pic-nic in
Mr. Donald Grassick's grove, Stanley,
on Friday next; June 20th. The Sab-
bath Schools of the village are expected
to join. Games of various kinds are on
the docket The friends are expected
to leave for the grounds at 9 a. m. ;
friends of the schools are invited. -The
sad news reached here on Wednesday of
the death of Mr. Henry O'Neil. He
died of typhoid fever in Cleveland, Ohio.
• He was a young man very highly
thought of in this part where he was
welt known for some years past. The re-
letives have the !sympathy of their many
friends here, -The juniors of this village
-••••-4,

played a game of foot ball here, with the
Juniors of Egmondville last Thursday
week, resulting in victory for the home
team two to one. The return match is
to be played in Egmondville on Thurs-
day of this week. We hope the juniors
of Brucefield will again come off victori-
ous.--adrs, Win. Scott is' visiting friends
in Kansas. -Our popular young friend
Mr. Wm. McQueen has been successful
in passing his second year's examination
in the arts course at the University of
Toronto. -The Methodist Church ser-
vice last Sunday was conducted by
Messrs Wiley and Diehl, of Varna, the
pastor being away at Conference. We
understand the next minister is to be
Rev. James Walker; Mr. Hart goes to
Rockwood. -Dr. Armstrong is the guest
of Dr. Elliot this week. -Miss Goodie
Marks is viaiting friends in Wingham.-
The young ladies and gentlemen of our
village intend having a lawn tennis club
this sununer. We wish them every suc-
cess.
TEACHER DISMISSED. -We understand
that Mr. Grant, who has for some time
very efficiently and satisfactorily con
ducted the school in Stanley, near here,
has for some reason been informed by
the trustees that his services will not be
required after the summer holidays.
This action on their part has given the
greatest offence to.a very large majority
of the ratepayers of the section, all of
whom' were well pleased with their
teacher. It seems that two of the trus-
tees are Conservatives and one a Re-
former. The Reformer went to Mani-
toba a short time ago. As soon as the
Conservative members of the Trustee
Board got the Reformer away they dis-
missed the teacher, w ho also is a Reformer,
One of the Conservative trustees has
since gone to the old country, and noth-
ing can be done until he returns. It is
generally supposed in the section that
the action of the Board is instigated asy
political malevolence, and that through
this cause the section will lose the ser-
vices of a most efficient and painstaking
teacher. Should this prove to be the
case there will be more heard of the
matter, as it will not be allowed to rest
here. ---!Coes.
Kippen.
MOWER REPAIRING. -The under-
signed calls the attention of his many custo-
mers and fermers in need of their mowers re-
paired, in all lines of repairing, or brushing new
knives or guards or sections, to bring in their
rnowen at once. This line of trade has in-
creased to such an extent upon myself that I
find it impossible to attend to all in a few. days.
Farmers wanting pea harvesters had better apply
to me for them, for which the beet testimonials
can be given of the manner in which they do their
work. Warranted to work on the roughest ground
and do the work cleaner than can be done with
scythes. Partiee wanting such, send in bar
with one side shoe on. THOMAS MILLIS.

GeneunuEN,-The battle has been
fought andt the victory won. I there-
fore return you my sincere and hearty
thanks for the efforts made by you both
before and on the day of election, and
`which have resulted, notwithstanding
some slight defections from different
reasons, in such a grand triumph in
favor of fair and honest government.

contest has -passed away, it will becleer-

Your Humble Servant,

Should County Officials Meddle
with Politics 9
LEAR _EXPOSITOR, -One of the most
prominent speakers and workers on the
Conservative aide in this county during
the recent elections was Dr. Holmes,
the county treasurer, who ran about
from riding to riding and from hustings
to hustings trying to promote his party's
cause. Dr. Holmes is the paid servant
of the people of this county and receives
his salary for the performance of the
duties of this pffice. It is no part of
such duties to work against the Mowat
Government, and' a decent respect for
the opinions of his employers, if nothing
else, should have kept him at home.
The people of Huron have just shown
themselves to be largely on the side of
the Reform party, and they have a right
to expect that their county officials
should at least be neutral in political
contests. The County council might
very' profitably enquire into their ser-
vant's couduct at their next meeeing.
Years truly,
SCRIITATOR.
