Taman and Frank Wil- liams spent Sunday last at Blyth. The Misses Kaine, of Clinton, are guests of their uncle, Major Baine, at present. Mr. Samuel Greer, jr., of Toronto, is home,on a short holiday visit. He took in ,the excursion to Arthur on Tuesday.- Mr. uesday.Mr.. Roberts, of the firm of Hurd & Roberts,.,; wholesale marble dealers, Hamilton, was in town for a day or two last week. Messrs. John :Kaine-and..D. Fallahay played, with.. the Dungannon; .foot -ball club, ,on ;Tuesday, against Wingham. The game resulted in a draw. Mr. Jas.. Young, of Clinton,, preached to the Methodist congregation _in ;the town hall here on Sunday. ;evening last, giving an impressive discourse. A.large fuchsia, inthe post offrce•wili- 'dew presents a very .attractive appear:_ ance just now.. Upon its branches are 115 flowers in bloom, . besides fully as many .more buds which have not yet opened. The plant is of the " Storm King " variety. Rev. J. W. Pring, of,Bluevale, passed through Gorrie on Wednesday. He was disappointed in not being able to attend the demonstration -at Arthur. He had got as far as Palmerston but was unable to secure a livery there to take him the rest of the journey. Mr. S. Seaman last week removed his family to Fordwich where he has re- cently been appointed to the position of station agent. We congratulate Ford- wich upon this accession to her inliabi- tantkand also upon receiving so capable and genial a young man to take charge of railroad affairs there. The Fordwich and Orange Hill Orange Young Britons presented a very attrac- tive appearance in the procession ,at Arthur on Tuesday last. They were neatly uniformed and marched with pleasing precision. It was hard to say which made the finer showing although the Orange Hill boys seemed to have : a little the.. best of- it on account of their superior numbers. , A young, sin of Mr. Wm. McKee, who lives just east of Belmore on the Carrick side, met with a serious and - painful acr cident on Tuesday. He was leading. a horse which was drawing a hay -fork, when the animal stumbled over a pile of boards and ,fell upon the lad breaking his leg at the thigh and otherwisecrush- iong and bruising him. Medical help was at once called, and although his life was despaired of, he has rallied, and is now apparently doing nicely.: . . M. and Mrs. Sam'! Greer were- ab- sent at Lucknow for a few. days .last week and this. Mr. and Mrs. Hutton, of Teeswater, were the guests of her mother, Mr. R. James, in this village over Sunday last. '1Mr.''W. C.

We understand several intend start- ing from here next Monday on the ex- cursion to Manitoba. Among the num- ber are Messrs. James Leech and John Kaine, jr. The Gorrie Brass Band is under obli- gations to the genial editor of the Arthur Enterprise, who permitted his office to be their .headquarters, while in that irillage on.Tuesday. If the Vidette man has succeeded in making any . responsible person believe what it:said last week concerning the proposed s sale of his. plant, we invite them to eall,at,the GAZETTE office and read his tiwn letter. The celebration --of .• the .Twelfth of July at Listowel drew.. out an immense throng, estimated at nearly 8,000.The procession was large and grand. Quite a number Iron the south part of the township were present at the demon- stration... Mr. N:,:,McLaughlin has .this week placed in his, store a neat rack for hold- ing and displaying wall paper. It only occupies a few feet of) ground -room, yet holds./00 rolls of sample wall paper,any one -of which can be displayed in one secpnd of time. The rack was made by Mr. A._Doan. J. A.Ceoll, B.A., Commercial Master of the town of Perth Collegiate Institute, was the guest _of his sister, Mrs. J. W. Green, of this office, .for a few days last week, leaving for his parents' home in Clutton on Saturday. He was accorii panied by his sister, Miss Eva Croll, of Galt, who will remain a week or two. Rev. Mr? Osborne preached in Luck - now oninday last. By the way, we inadvertentlyomitted to mention,in our report of the corner -stone laying last week, the fact that Rev. Mr. Osborne not only was present at the ceremony in the afternoon, but also gave an excel- lent address at the tea -meeting enter► tainnient rn the evening. - Messrs. T. McLaughlin, of Gorrie,and Alex. - Robinson of Fordwich, attended the Presbytery at Harriston on Tuesday. The Presbyterians are ready to give a While the Orangemen were.,away at unanimous call to Rev.

The flag is a very home-made affair and clings con- vulsively le; the. pale as if it veould-. like #A cliietistown.from the atmosphere, to which it docs not belong, and' hide itself in a hole along with 14 Tera` and the others of that stripe. Mr. Eschoo,a Persian strident of Knox college, Toronto, with a view of return- ing to his native country as a missionary, delivered a lecture in the Presbyterian t)hucch in this village last Monday.eve- ning, the buildingbeing well filled. Mr. Jno, B,Campbell was called to the chair and jntroducd the speaker. Mr. Eschoo spoke, very well for a loam who has very lately learned the English .1011gpage„and' was 'quite entertaining_. ' 'His conversion was due to the efforts of Presbyterian -missionaries, who have five: stations in :Persia._ Out of..the nine=and-a-half mil-' lions of his cottntrymmeu there are in all. abord2,600 Christians,the balance being. followers. of Confucius,=Mohamedans and Fire -worshippers... He gave an interest- ing account of the habits of the Persians, showing that the. women there are little better than slaves, although there are; - 700 women and girls who .can read through the instructions of a Miss; Fisk, who spent 25years in that country. His countrymen know nothing of -the telegraph, telephone or railroads and but `little of the world's _history. He was listened to closely throughout and at the close a,collection was taken up to assist him in his collegiate course. _ which he has partly concluded with a congregation in the Western States. The rev, gentleman preached eloquent sermons on this Circuit on Sabbath last. One hundred and four applications were taken by the Howick Fire Insur- ance Company during the month of June, covering property to the amount of .154,1Q4, No policy, will . expire in the Company. from June, 1S92,. to April, 11893,' awing to. the. term, of i surance being reduced, by the .Ontario: govern- ment, from five to three years in 1887, and extended . again to . four years in 1889. In order to stimulate American eom position, Tlie Ladies' Home Journal has just made public an attractive series of liberal prizes for the best original musi- cal composition by composers residents of the United States and Canada. The prizes call for a waltz, a piano composi- tion, a pleasing ballad and a, popular song, an- anthem and the four best hymn tunes. The composition is open until Novemner 1st, next. The opportunity has an additional attractiveness since the prize compositions will form part of a series for which Strauss is writing an original waltz, and Charles Gounod and Sir Arthur Sullivan each an original song.

Mr. S. Hicks, of Minto, his wife, and son, Tom, the teacher, and one daugh- ter, were visiting friends in thispart lately. THE TWELFTH. Howick District Celebrates the Day ; at Arthur. A closely -packed excursion train last Tuesday morning carried away nearly 400 members of the Lowick District L. O. L. and; their friends, to the thrifty little village of Arthur, 35 , miles east of here, on the C. P. R., a: village which has a marked history in connection with. - the early days of Orangeism in this sec- _ tion. Some Howick. Orangemen were on the train who could recall the days, just before the American war, when companies were formed here to go to the . relief of their brethren who were sup- posed to be in so great peril at the hands of the Catholics around Arthur. And a number did actually hunt their way through the nntraversed woods of Haw- ick, Minto and Arthur townships only ., to find that instead of the Orangemen being in peril, help had already arrived, _ and the case was reversed. The writer well remembers when the old Catholic . church in that village was riddled with bullets, while the (then) hamlet was fairly alive with Orangemen — in- cluding the famous, Wallace Lambs— who had gathered from all points to show that they were ready then,as they are to -day, to fight,if necessary for their principles. But those days have long since passed away, and a, totally different purpose actuated the happy train load of excur- sionists who were carried in elegant comfort, in a little more than an hour, over the journey that occupied several days on the occasion of that first "ex-., cursion" many years ago. When he train left the township borders there were on board 370 persons, nearly 250 of whom were Orangmeen. On.ar•,riving at, Arthur,-the.excursion- ists -were met by the committee and the fine Brass Band of that village, and es- corted to their quarters, the procession forming`, under the supervision of Mr. Geo. Walker, Huron Co. Field Marshal, about as follows : Major W. W. Whyte and Marshall Fair. Arthur Brass Band. Orange Hill L. 0. L., No. 575, Jno. Dane, Master. 50 Members. Fordwich L. 0. V. No. 642, John Donaghy, Mas- ter. 50 members. Gorrie Brass Band. Gorrie L. 0. L. No. 767, W. J. Greer, Master. 40 , Members: Newbridge L: O.L. No. 77.5, Adam Spence, Master. 25 members. Wroxeter L. 0. L. No. 1091, Jno. Bray, Master. 20 members. Cook's Lodge 0. Y. B. (Fordwieb), No. 4, Jas. Sanderson, jr., Master. 24 members. Orange Hill,0. Y. B. No. 78, Abram Strong, Mas- ter. 37 .members, After .a short paradethe procession. broke up for dinner. At -half-past-one the grand -procession formed,there being about 30 lodges in the line,and marched through the principal streets to the pleasure -grounds where nearly four thousands people were gathered around the stand which ,had been erected fir the purpose, and from -which stirring. speecheswere delivered by Major White, W. H. _ Clegg, Rev. Messrs. Smith and and Mr. Clark,of Palmerston, after -which rousing cheers were -given, and the &ass _Bands,joined together, played "G-od Save the Queen." The procession then re-formed and marched back to Main St:, where it disbanded. until 5:30 o'clock, when the Howick Contingent re-formed and marched to the station and boarded the train for home. The trip was a pleasant one, and the, excursionists cannot speak;too-highly of the way they wereentertained by the Arthur Brethren. The party enjoyed . the unusual occurrence of a "dry Twelfth,'? not a -drop of rainh,f4ving fal;.. len during the day. A. heavy shower the day previous, however, had laid the; dust nicely, mach to the comfort gf all. -Scarcely an intoxicated person was to, be seen in the village, and• there were. certainly none on the train, while the friendliest -feeling appeared to pervade the entire proceedings,. T.44,1 ale Gorrie Brass Band acquitted, themselves very creditably,and were especially requested to play "Ta-ra-ra„ Boom de„ e" at the platform. The boys_ are highly pleased with, the generous . treatment they re- ceived from the Gorrie lodge, who bad them engaged for the day. The excursionists arrived back to`the-. township shortly after seven o'clock, after having enjoyed as fine a trip an celebration as one"could wish fpr; z
