The step of the buggy gave way, and Mrs. Tomlinson fell heavily to the ground, bruising herself severely. —The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Don- ald Park, jr., of Cromarty, sympathize with &hem in their sudden bereavement in the death of' their little bay, who had been ail- ing for eorrie time, but was not thought serious until he suddenly grew worse on Friday, 24th ult., and although medical aid was at once called, they were powerless to Save the ohild, who died in the afternoon. DISTRICT MATTERS.I very large number of the people will avail 1 themeelvea of this opportunity to enjoy a 4invon Ovoitsre, CONVETION.—The ,Huron County Sab- bath School and Christian Endeavor Union will hold their convention this year in Clin- ton on June 18th and 19tb: As the location is central and of easy access by train, every Sunday school and Christian Endeaver so- ciety should see they are well represented by delegates. The local • committee is making elaborate preparation s for their re- ception. An excellent' programme ia ar- ranged, including some attar speakers in the Province and we look for a good time. Don't forget the dates, June 18th and 19th. • FOR THE OLD COUNTRY.—Mr. W. Som- erville has ticketed the following persons to the old country 3. n. Broadfoot,Seaforth ; D. Sproat, Walter Scott, Joseph Wilkinson and Miss Proctor, Belgrave. They sail from Montreal on Saturday by the Allan line steamer, Auetralasian, for Liverpool, and will visit the Glasgow Exposition and other points. He also ticketed Rev. and Mrs. Sewers, Brucefield, and Mrs. Simpson, Lon- don, who sail from Montreal` on the 14th, by the Beaver line steamer, Lake Megantic. Mr. Sewers visited his native place eleven years ago but this is Mrs. Sewers' first visit. We wish them all a pleasant visit to the old land. Ecimo'envianE NOTES.—Mise Charlotte Cook, who has efficiently filled the position of organist and leader of the singing in our church during the past year, has resigned. Our people regret the loss of Miss Cook's valuable services, but no doubt the duties will be capably performed by her successor, Miss Gertie VanEgmond.—Mr. and Mre. °miens, of Wingham, were renewing old ea. cvaintances in the village last week.—Miss Sara Stewart, who has been visiting her sis- ter, Mrs. Knight, of Melrose, returned home on Wednesday.—The treasurer of our church has sent in to Dr. Warden nearly $50e as our contribution to the century flied. There will also be a supplementary contribution from belated eontributors.— Kruse Bros. have got nicely started at their new brick and tile yard, and are said to be turning out a fine article in both lines.—Mr. Jacob McGee spent a few °aye with hie son and daughters up around Ashfield last week. • OTHER To WN'S STREETS.—There is al- ways more or less criticism of the condition of our Main street, and although it ie by no means perfect, there is a eatisfaction in knowing that the main thoroughfare in other towns around_cannot ()prepare to ours. • Major Anderson, our street • tomrniseioner, was in Wingham on Sunday"; and as the Major always has his eyes open for anything in the good roads line, he was looking over the streets in that town,and is our authority for the statement that Main street, Seaforth, is like a pavement when placed along side Wingham's Main street. Thereepools 'of water, resembling small lakes, were standing on the roadway, while the road itself re- sembled the smooth side of a corduroy road. Things were in such a condition that some wag had stuck up placards advertising the fishing privileges in the "ponds" to rent on application to the town conned. Hereafter who will dare to say our Main street is not all right? APPREcIATED.—In its report of the annual Stbbath School Convention of the Brussels district, held in the Methodist church in that place last week, the Brussele Post says : "Rev. Mr. Larkin, M. A., B. D., of Seaforth, expressed his pleasure at being present. He congratulated the Association on the success of the convention and was de- lighted with the musical selections and Rev. Mr. Me"Nab's address. The speaker then proceeded to epeak of the great and para- mount importance of life. •The boys are the most important part of the community. If we follow the simple, yet diptinct command • of the Master we will not fail in our efforts wj the children. The home and the church were shown to have within them the possibility of up -lifting the world and an urgent appeal was made by Mr. Larkin that everybody should adopt the International motto, Organization for Evangelization." He concluded his short, incisive, helpful,. brortherly address with the large audience very deeirous that he would have continued at greater length." • AFTER FIFTEEN YEARS. —Having com- pleted fifteen years of faithful and very efficient -service as leader of the choir of thil First Presbyterian church, Seaforth, Mr. James Scott has tendered his resignation to the church Session. This action on his part was rendered necessary on account of increasing business duties and contemplated absence from home. Under the circumstan- ces the Session, at a -recent meeting, very regretfully accepted the resignation and placed on ecord a minute expressive of that regret and acknowledging with gratitude Mr. Scott's long, faithful and untiring ser- vices and the harmony which had all these years subsisted betwee himself and'the Ses- sion and congregation, The position of choir leader is usually a difficult and deli. cate one, but Mr. Scott seemed to possess in an eminent degree the tact necessary to avoid all difficult:4es and he has always succeeded in maintaining a ohoir which has ever been creditable to himself, to the members of the choir and isatiefactory to the congregation and his services will long be remembered by those in whose behalf they have been so long and so unsparingly rendered. The reeignation will take efface so soon as a suit- able succeseor can be secured. A DRAINA s DISPUTE. —The townships of McKillop and Logan have a dispute over a drain. The township council of Logan passed a byjaw for the construction of a. drain and the engineer in charge had a. por- tion of elle drain running along .the Logan and McKillop boundary and asseesed Mc- Killop for a portian of the cost. The coun- cil of McKillop demurred to paying this as- sessment claiming, in the first plaoe, that that portion of the dramwasnot constructed in the right place and secondly that Melia - I p received no advantage from it and consequently that the armament of the • engineer was wring. The council of , Logan appealed the matter to the Provincial drain referee. That official held a court in Sea - forth on Thursday of last week. Upon going into the case it was found that Logan had not complied with all the requirements of the law and their proceedings being in- formal, they had no, case and their claim was dismissed and they were adjudged to pay all the costs. Thus MeKillopcomes off a winner in the first round. It is likely • that. Logan will permit the matter to rest here, as it was made, evident at the trial, that even had their procedure been regular and in accordance with law, they have no case, as McRillop's contention oan easily be sustained by evidence. , * FARMERS' EXOURSION.—An exoutsion un- der the auspices of,the West and East Rid- ing of Huron'Farmer' Institutes will take place to the Experimental Farm, at Guelph, on Saturday, June 15th. As will be seen by the official,notice in !Another pait of this issue, speci d 'excursion trains will be run from Goderich in the west, Belgrave in the north, and Centralia in the south, and the time is so arranged to permit of a good;leng day at Guelph, and the return of the excur- sionista to their homes the same evening, if they so desire. Or excureionists can remain over until the following Monday, and return by any of the regular trains on that day. The fare,•also, has been placed at a very moderate figure, and we have no doubt a pleasant day's outiug at a very reasonable cost. We understaud this will be the only excursion from this pare of the county to the Farm thie season, These excursion(' have become very pc pular, and those who go one year are always more anxioue to go the next. We have no doubt but the same will be tee case this year, and that the coming excursien will be the'beet patronized of any of the man 3 succeeeful excursions that have been held. • We are informed by the committee that ample accommodation will be provided for all who go, so that none need remain at home, for feer of there not being ample oar aocommodatrion. • CHAIRED.—There was a pleasant gather- ing of the members of the Methodist church in the school room of the church on Friday evening last. The meeting was for the pur- pose of giving the congregation a last oppor- tunity of spending -a social evening with Rev. and Mrs. Russell, and at the same time, to allow them to show, in a tangible manner, their appreciation of the earnest pastoral work done by Mr. Russell during his three years etb,y here. The evening was most pleasantly spent. A number of ad. dresses were given which bore testimony to the close feeling of Cheepeeian fellowship which has existed between pastor and peo- ple, and the regret 'elt at the severing of these most pleasant and profitable ties. The addresses were pleasingly varied by musical selections and to add to the sociabil- ity of the evening light refreshments were served. The most pleasant .feature of the evening was, no doubt, the ,preeentation to Mr. and Mrs. Russell of a handsome chair each, setting forth in a substantial way the sentiments verbally given expression to in the different addresses. During his stay here of three years, Mr. Russell has made many frieeds outside of his own congrega- time, and when he closes his pastoral duties in Seaforth, which he does the end of thie month, he will go tO hie new field carrying • with him the beat' wiehes lief very many friends. Mrs. Russell has els° been a most active participant in every Christian move- ment, and in her own ehuroh was el leader in every good work. She is in every way a true help to her husbend in his workl and her friends here will longremember her many acts of kindness, and cherish the memory of a true aristian friend.
