The exact number reported by the police up to mid- night was 176, but the list was not all in then. Probably 300 more were prostrated. The morgue is full of unclaimed dead. Am- bulance driVers and doctore, as well as the medital corps of the hospitale, were overworked, and they, too, were threatened with prostrations.

THE INSPECTOR'S VISIT.-Inspeetor Seath paid his official visit to .the Collegiate In- stitute on May 29th and 30th. His reporb, which was recently considered by the true. tee board, is most gratifying to all concern- ed in the welfare of theachool. He reports' that the organizetion of the school, the dis- cipline and the character of the pupils' work, are most satisfaetory. The teachers are each given the highest possible grading. He summarizes his report by saying " I need hardly assure the Board that the school ie in a better condition than it has ever been. The attendance will probably inerease. It should, if thorough efficiency can promote it." TRAVELLERS. -In liddaion to the usual holiday travel, the following were ticketed out to more distant points this reek, by W. Somerville, Grand Trunk up -town agent : W. II. Willie, to Montreal ; Miss Kirk- wood, to Essex ; Mies Minnie Somerville, MoKillop, to South River, Muskoka ; Mrs. - J. S.

Berwick, Winthrop, to Sault Ste. Marie. • A NEW ENGINE. -A new traction engine, just completed at the Seaforth Engine and Machine Works of Mr. Robert Bell, was run along several of the streets oh Saturday afternoon, and attracted a good. deal of attention. This is the first engine of the kind made at the Seaforth 'works. It is in. tended to propel a threehing machine and other machinery of -that kind. In many places also they are used for working road graders and other machinery requiring haavy draught. By simply changing the wheels, also, it makes an excellent road roller. It is well gotten up, nicely finished, and works most satiufactorily, Mr. Bell has several of these engines on the way to completion, and expects to have them all finished and ready for use this season, as well as several of the arditzary portable enginee. The engines of the Seaforth works are becoming so popular that the facilities of the establisernent are tested to the utrno it to supply the demand. • THE RACES. -As the dates draw nearer, -the prospects for an excellent race meet here, on Tuesday and Wednesday next, grow brighter, and present indications are' that at no point on the circuit will there be a bigger Bering of horses or better races than at Seaforth, and all that is now required is good weather, Hal Forest, Black Joe, and Mies Delmarch, all old rivaes, have been working hard against each oeher all season, and are just waiting till they get to Seafath to decide which is the better horse, and, as a resul4 there will be some particularly fast time made, as the Seaforth track is now ad- mitted to be the best half -mile track in Can- ada. Altogether there will be some fifty horses here. Suc'h a nurnber of fast ones -should attract a very large crowd, and if you wish to be in it and see the best races of the seaeon, you should make it a point to be hero on Tuesday and Wednesday next. Another great feature of the programme will be the running races, one each daya which, with three trotting races each day as well, melees a big afternoon'seport. • MARRIED IN PORT HURe.iN.-The young lady who played the principal pert in the pleasant affair described by -the Port Huron Times of June 27th in the following para• graph, is a native of Seaforth,- and the -fam• fly still have many friends ,here who -will join with TILE EXPOSITOR in extending con- gratulations, The Times says : " At the home of the bride's mother, Mrs, Elizebeth Beam, on Wednesday evening, occurred the marriage of Miss Edith May Beam and Mr. Wm. R. Schermerhorn, both of this city, Rev. A. B. Leonard was the officiating clergyman. A small company of family friends was present. The house was beauth fully decorated with roses and ferns, sent to the house by friends, The bride was prettily attired in white and carried a bouquet of roses. After the cereniony re- freshments were served. A generous list of beautiful prceents testified to the esteem in which the bride is held. An abundant shower of rice greeted the young couple as they left the house on a brief wedding jour- ney. Oa their return they will take up their residence on Lapeer avenue." FooTem.ra.-The final match kettle foot ball championship of Ontario was played -on the recreation grciunds here, on Friday lase, between Galt and the Hurons. The game in Galt on the previous Wednesday, had resulted in a victory for Galt by 4 goala 1, and as the greatest number of goals in the two games decided tbe championship, the Hurons went into the game decidedly handl- capped, but they went in to win if possible and they made an admirable fight ior it. From the beginniog, with the exception of a few minutes in the. second half, the Hurons had deeidedly the best of ehe game and, although they were only able eo soote twice, made it hot around the visitor's goal many times. Galt, however, with their big lead, could afford to play on the defensive, and this they did succeesfully enough to prevent our boya from scoring the requisite number of goals. The -Hurons played an excellent game all through and proved them- selves ihe euperior of their opponents. The Oalt, boys are good players, and the game was one of the most interesting we have seen here for some years. The final score was 2 to 1 in favor of Seaforth, thus the championship goes to Galt, they having won by 5 goals to 3 in Ihe two games. The Galt players came up in a special train, and were accompanied by a large number of their admirers, who exerted all the power in their lunge to assist their favorites to win. At the conclusion of the game they had quite a glorifization among themselves over having won tne championship, but their joy was somewhat marred through their Liability to win here, which they evi- dently confidently expected to do, • A PResesekeroao-The lady referred to in the following paragraph, vvhich we take from the Leamington Post, of June 27th, is the wife of Rev, Mr. WallVvin, the new pa's. tor of the Seaforth Methodist church : On Wednesday afternoon -there was a moat in- teresting gathering of the Woman'e Chris. tian Temperence Union at the residence of Principal Elliott, the „occasion being a sine, prim party in honor of Mrs. Wallwin, who.) has always been a faithful Woman's Chria- tian Temperance Union woman, and Whose departure from Learning`on is a great trial to the sisterhood. Being master of the house, Mr. Elliott was invited to participate in the festivities, and to keep him company he was permitted to invite Revs. Wallwin and Edwards. These were the only gentle• men present. A very elegant repast was partaken of. Pleasant words 'were said and the following atidrese was read by the secre- tary, Mrs. Coyne, followed by the presen- tation to Mrs. Wallwin_of a beautiful volume of the life of Francis Willard : DEAR SISTER, -With deepregret we, whd have been for three yeare your fellow workers in the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, hear of your approaching departure from our town. Since you came among us your kindly disposition and unselfish helpful life have endeared you to us, and we esteem you as a sister beloved. Your faithful labors in the press department have been highly • f , ,Teized by us, and, we sbelieve, have been helpful to the cause we have BO Much at heart, while your wise couneela and deep interest in every part of our work are worthy of oer warmest praise. We assure you that as you go out froth us our love and prayers go with you to your new 'field of labor. We commend you to the loving care of the Master, whose you are and whom you serve, and as we bid you farewell we ask you to accept the accompanying gift as a slight teken of the love arid gratitude of the ladies of the Leamington Woman's Chris- tain Temperance Union." • THE HAY BUSINESS. -The ailing and shipping of hay is becoming quite a large and important. industry in this part of the country, and a great deal of money is year- ly distributed among our farmers for this product. The crop this year is a good one, better than the average, both as roger& ghality and yield, and farmer,' should exer- cies) the greatest care- in having ib sieved in good conditioa. Although the local buyers do not discriminate much in price, not as mach as they Should do, but pay . pretty much a uniform pribe for all qualities, yet an inferior quality militates against the' price in the wholesale market, and conse- quently the local buyers are not able to pay as muoh even for good hay as if the entire crop were Of good quality and properly saved, In the wholesale market the hay is graded No. 1 and No. 2, and the larger the amount of the best quality that comes from a certain locality, the beeter the price the producers generally receive tor their crop, A very important consideration in the cue- ing of hay is to preserve a nice, brig& color, and every hay grower should strive to do this. It will pay, individually, as well as - beieg a general benefit , in retaining the reputation of the hay from that locality or shipping point. It would also be a great advantage if farmers would grade' their own hay by keeping the good and ehe inferior separate, so it could be bated in this way. Hy so- doing they would ' get a better price for 'their crop. A little- eare in thin reopeot on t he part of farmers Would be advantageous to them in many ways. , • • Do not fail to see Hal Forest' 2:14i7; Bleck Joo 2:141 ; Two 'Strike 2:101 and 'Miss Del - march 2:W when they moot on the fastest race track in Canada, at Seaforth,- on July fith and 10th.
