BURGLARS AT WORK AGAIN. -On Sunday
evening last while Mr.' and Mrs. Michael
Hurley, oft -his town, were in church, some
person or persons e fleeted an entrance to
their residence by breaking in the back-
door. Everything was done in a business-
like Way, the curtains were 'drawn closely
tegethee and a lamp being then lighted a
thorough search of the house was made;
drawers were pulled out and the contents
strewn about the room, and every place
where money was likely to be placed was
investigated. Fortunately, however, there
was no money in the house and the burglars
-were unrewarded for their tro,uble. This is
the third time that Mr. Hurley's house has
been entered and on both of the -two former
occasions money was obtained. The num-
ber of such petty burglaries are becoming
alarmingly numerous, and the authorities
should put forth every effort to ferret out
the giiilty ones.

- A SUCCESS. -We have already referred to
the beautiful sacred song, "Satisfied,"
written by our talented Young author, Miss
Graham, of Egmondville. We are pleased,
but not surprised, to learn that it is be.
coming very . popular, and the publishers
say it is going out exceptionally well. Wea
-may also state that it has been successifillY
sung by Mr. Harold Jarvis and other .pop-
ular artists. In the Globe of a, few clays
ago we find the following reference to it:
"At the morning service in the Metropoli-
tan church yesterday,Miss Chester, soprano,
sang the new song, " Satisfied," by Ernest
A. Humphries. The Words, which are by
Miss H. Isabel .Graham are full of fervent
spirit, which is admirably brought out by
the music. The song is published by Messrs.
Whaley, Royce & Co., and has met with
much praise from leading musicians," :To-
ronto Saturday Night also says: ,"Satisfied,
a sacred song for baritone or contralto,Wordp
by JI.I.Graham, music by. E. A. Humphries.
This song, which is an effective and me- -
loclious composition, is dedicated to Mr. F.
11. Torrington. It has already. been sung at.
several leading churches, with good effect."

A PROTEST. -By special request we pub-
liah the following resolution which speaks
for itself : .` It was with deep regret that
we heard of. the proposal to run an excursion
train from Stratford to Goderich, on Sun-
day, November 8th, and learned that said
train did actually pass through Seaforth on
that day. Therefore, be it resolved, that
at this our first regular meeting held since
the excursion was advertised, we, the mein-
bere of the Seaforth Women's Chris-
tian Temperance Union, record our
most emphatic disapproval of the running
of that excursion train, and our strong op-
position to any such violation of the saered-
ness of the Sabbath Day. Also that a copy
of this resolution be sent for publication in
tach af our local papers."
Cr.evEr. Yousu MEN. -Mr. James A.
Reid, who holds the responsible position of
head book-keeper in the offiee of the Bryce
Lember Company, Toronto, and who was
spending a few days at the parental home
a.t Ifarlock, in Ilullett, left here on Satur-
day -to resume his idaties in the Queen
City. -A younger brother, Mr. Alexander
Reid, who has been in the electric) light
works, in Seaforth, for the past year, and
-who has lately been running the electric
light plant at Auburn, also left by the same
train ..or Mitchell, where he has assumed -
the charge of the town electric plant.
He is a young man for so important a posi-
tion, but is thoroughly up in his profession.
He is a graduate of Mr. A. Ingram, mana-
ger of the Seaforth establishment, and is a
credit to his instructor. Both these young
men are sons of Mr. Samuel Reid, of Oar-
lock, and they are a credit to him, and he
is very justly proud of them.

THE FAT STOCK Seiow.-We would again
remind our readers of the Fat Stock Show
to be held at Exeter, under the auspices of
the South Huron Agricultural Society, on
Friday of next week, December 4th. The
Stephen and iUsborne Agricultural Society
have very kindly given the use of their
grunds and buildings for this show,so there
will be ample and comfortable accommoda-
tion for both exhibitors and spectators.
Liberal prizes are offered for fat cattle,
sheep, swine and dressed poultry. We un-
derstand that a large number of animals are
being prepared for competition at this show,
and we expect that the poultry exhibit will
in itself be well worth seeing. There is,
also, no donbt but buyers, both local and
from a distance, will be largely represented.
We hope, therefore, that the farmers of the
riding:, and others interested in agricultural
matters, will turn out in large numbers, and
thus not only benefit themselves but assist
and encourage lithe society in establishing
this show which, if successful, must ulti-
mately prove of immense benefit to the
farming community in a county where
stock raising and feeding is such an impor-
tant industry as it is in the:countyof Huron.

McClinchey, who 'died at her residence on
the Goshen line, on the 15th inst., after a
few days' illness. The deceased was a
native of the county of Antrim, Ireland, and
emigrated with hex parents to Canada in
1852. She was a consistent member of the
Chute& of England, and one who was al-
ways in her place in the sanetung of the
Lord to lift up her voice in prayer -add
praise to Him who kept and supported her
through life's journey, 80 that when she
came to die she could say," The Lord giveth
and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the
name of the Lord." She was in her 61st
year, and her sudden death caused a sad
gloom over all the neighborhood. She
leaves a husband and six children, five girls
and one boy, to mourn the loss of a dear
companion and a loving mother.- On the
following Tuesday her remains were follow-
ed by a large number of friends and acquain-
tances to the Bayfield cemetery.
