ENTRANCE EXAMINATION.
EAST HURON.
The following are the names of the suc-
cessful candidates who wrote on the entrance
examination at the various examination
centres in the inspectorate of East Huron.
The names are arranged alphabetically- in
two classes e—those who obtained sixty per
cent, of the total marks or over are placed
in the honor list ;.there who obtained more
than fifty per cent, but lees than •60 per
cent, are placed in the pass list.
The papers of this examination were all
fair and reasonable exee t that on spelling
which was much too difficult for children.
Fifty marks are allowed for this paper
with two marks off for each Mis-spelled
Word. There were at least 50 difficult
words on the paper. The town and village
!school pupils did quite well on this paper,
but owing to the number of classes in the
rural school, the teachers have not the
time to give the necesiary drill t4 prepare
their pupils for such a difficult pa er.
Except in so far as an unfair paper i is
likely to demoralize candidates for succeed-
ing papers of the examination thos writing
in this inspectorate suffered no injnatice on
account of the unreasonableness of this dic-
tation paper. .

The Twelfth at Stratford.
tratford was the grand centre for the
O angemen of this district, on Friday last.
Tiey were there from North and South
H ron, North and 'South Perth and North
M ddlesex. A special train was run from
th west and south for their accommodation,
an the many whd went from this district
un tie in saying that they had a most enjoy.
ab e day. The morning train, cofitaining
fly ears, was so crowded that the brethren
w a o intended going from Seaforth station
co Id not get aboard, and, consequently,
thy had to await the special, which passed
do n about eleven o'clock. On the returu
tri the special reached Seaforth about eight
o'c oek in the 'evening. The most of the ex.
en sionista returned by it, but a good many
ea e by the regular train. It is estimated
th t there' were between 6,000 and 8,000
vistore in Stratford, and it is safe to say
th t never was a more orderly crowd given
th freedom of the city.
he parade started 'at the city hall, and
re robed via Market and Ontario streets to
th Queen's Park, where a programme of
sp rts was carried out, under the auspices of

ev. A. S. Grant, M. D., t e well known
Yu on missionary and noted, pastor of , St.
An rew's church, Dawson City, is in To-
ro to to see his wife, who has been living
th re while he has been laboring in the
Yu on.
e gives an interesting description of the
, City.;
We
have," said
pr gress of and the conditions now existing
ataevso
id Mr. Grant, who might
vie Iy be mistaken for a layrean, owing to
his semi -clerical drese and free -and -easy
style of conversation, " some of the shrewd-
est, business men in the world in Dawson
Cit . It is the base of supplies for the whole
o ntry round about, and t would slur-
;
pH e you the amount of •bu iness that is
doe there." i -
ceording to Mr. Grant, a • remarkable
oh nge has taken place for t e better in the
m ral tone of the cominunit . There are
fiv religious organizations iz Dawson City,
th Anglican, the Presbyteri ne the Roman
Ce holic, the Methodist and the Salvation
Ar y, and each one has its meting -house.
It as quite true, he said, that the public
da ee halls and gamblers -1'd a thriving
trade until quite recently, but such was the
public sentiment that now they had to clear
out. Men Who at first entirely neglected
their religioes duties were now to be seen
at church every Sunday. "Why, I'm
building a c urch there now," said Mr.
Grant, " co ting $20,000. It's no trouble
to get moue for church objects. They
whack up at once. In fact, they throw it
at you."
Mr. Grant, when he first went to Dawson,
used to go to church and preach in a sweater
and wearing moccasins. He could not do
that now, for the people were getting quite
stylish. The dresses Of the ladies would do -
ctedit to Kik street, Toronto, and the
scene at St. '4ndrew's ball could not be out-
done in Torolato. The log cabins were all
disappearing and being replaced by a sub-
aitantial class of -buildings.-. was also
'true of the bUildings erected after the dif-
ferent fires.
• The water System was kept open through-
out Dawson for the first time during last
winter. Every other winter the main pipes
only were kept -in operation'and then only
i
by keeping a overflow constantly running.
Very littleipauperism exists there now,
as is evidenc d by the fact that where the
c
hospital, of Inch Mr. Grant is superin-
tendent, at fist treated 90 per cent. indi-
gents, it is n w just the reverse.
Mr. Grant s a -fine type of the hardy
Canadian pio eer. •He is a graduate in
r
medicine, ancholds a degree from McGill
University.

The StEl. e of Affairs in South
Africa.
Returning fficers do not speak hopefully
of the situati n in South Africa. They as-
sert_that the ailways are securely held, and
that there ar small zones around Bloem-
fontein, Preteria and Johannesburg, where
it is possible ler inhabitants to settle down
and resume their usual occupation without
the fear of duiturbance ; but apart from the
pacification of these small spheres of British
influence, thee are few signs of progress.
The railway line from Johannesburg to
Laing'a Nek i still menaced ; the Dutch
section south of the Orange river is ravaged
with guerillas, and broad distriets in the
Transvaal and Orange River colony are
only kept quiet by being emptied of popu-
lation through repeated marches of strong
columns. In Cape Colony, Commandant
Scheepers, who is giving General French
considerable trouble has been burning the
public buildings at ,idurraysburg and some
farms in the viainity, while during the
march to Zeeruet of Col. Fetherston and
Dixon's columns, the local colonial troops
suffered somewhat severely. On the other -
hand the British have at last succeeded in
surprising and capturing the so-called Or-
ange River Government, ev!ith the import-
ant exception of ex -President Steyn, who,
with one other man, managed to escape in
the, nick of time, the conipletennese of the
surprise being evidenced by the fact that
the ex -president was obliged to fly in hia
shirt sleeves. He, like his wily country-
man, De Wet, has been in many tight .cor-
ners and experienced many hair breadth
escapee. Of the generals now in South
Africa, Lord- Methune is most highly com-
mended by officers serving under him. He
is described as one of the most energetic
and resourceful generale at the front. In-
stead of cemplainilag of the harsh criticisms
to which he was subjected, he has remained
in service and displayed untiring industry
and gallantry.

hay in. About 11 o'clock his wife and the
small children drove out with his dinner.

farmer, Mr. Weaver, was called in, but as
Mr. Fisher was already dead, he hastened

thorities. Mr. Fisher had fastened a log-
ging chain to a beam, run a loop through
the ring round his neck and swung to his
death. Mr. Fisher was about 60 years of
age, and a universally respected citizen.

evidence of his unsound mind, being subject
to violent fits of despondency.

—Canadian Pacific Railway reports re-
ceived 'On aatorday, show that all over
Manitoba and along the line as far west as
Broadview heavy rains fell from two to
three hours during the early morning. The
temperature varied from 85 to 95 above. A
very heavy thunderstorm was reported from
Gretna. Crop news from the Province and
along the C. P. R. lines show that condi-
tions have greatly improved. On the main
line, as far west as Moose Jaw, the weather
was favorable. Damage by locusts at Car-
berry and Sewell Was reported, and by hail
at Balgonie, but very slight. On the south-
western sections the crop will be light at
Carman, owing to grubs, and at Stockton
and Methven slight damage by locusts was
reported in wheat. On the Pembina, Sour-
is, Northwestern and Prince Albert sections
the weather is excellent and the prospects
never better, damage by hail and locusts be-
ing very slight. Too much rain in the
Edmonton district is reported, whieh has
made the growth rank, and reports from
the district are not so favorable. All the
rest of the lines in the Province give vary
good reports. Applicationt for harvesters
are pouring in at the Department of Agri-.
culture from all sections of the Province.
One township alone calls for 125 extra men
and another for 75. It is calculated that
each farmer throughout the Province will
require from four to eight extra hands this
year. The above figures will give some
idea of the enormous crop which it is ex-
pected will be reaped in Manitoba this
season,
