Can Not Do Without Expositor.—A subscriber from Strome, Alberta, in renewing the subscription to The Ex- positor, says: "I have taken your paper ever since 1881. and as there are very few of my old friends deft, I was going to drop it at the end of this month, but I find I would .miss The Expositor too 'much as there is always something of interest in it about Ontario and people I know there. We have been eighteen years in Alberta, in the Edmonton district. Our town is on the main line of the C. P. R. from Winnipeg to Edmonton and are in a mixed farming district. We have good soil and some brush, which makes good firewood when there is a scarcity of coal. When we came here fifteen years ago the largest poplar and willow would only 'maks' a good walking stick, as it was all a ranching country and run over with prairie fires, But there are no fires now and the timber grows to quite a size. The farmer gets $10 for a grain tank full of this poplar wood split ready for summer wood. We had a very fine winter, just three cold snaps of two or three days at a time. It never reached fifty below all winter. We had very little snow and cars ran all winter with the exception of February," Death of Archibald Scott. — The death occurred at his home on Gode- rich Street West, on Wednesday evening of one of Seaforth's pioneer business men and prominent and re- spected residents, in the person of Mr. Archibald Scott. Mr. Scott had been a sufferer from anaemia for more than a year, but was able to he about the greater part of the time, and was out driving as recent- ly as Friday last, so that his death came wthh somewhat of a surprise and shock to the citizens of the Mown, where he had been so long a resi- dent. The deceased was a son of the late Robert Scott, of Roxboro. In the early days of Seaforth he and Ms brother, Mr. James Sic'ott, now of Edmonton, organized the 'firm of Scott Bros, and carried 'on a mnsiea' instru- ment store there for many years. Later they built the fust obstetric fight plant in Seaforth Which sup- plied the town with met and .power until the advent of the Hydro a few years ago. They were also extensive- ly interested in western lands. Mr. Scott is survived by his wife and a family of one son and one daughter, Mr. C. Melvin Scott, of Edmonton, and Miss Clarissa Scott, of the Civil Service Department, Ottaws. No arrangements have yet been made for the funeral.

A. on Wednesday evening, when they met Clinton in Clinton, and gave a right good account of them- selves, finishing with the long end of a 4-0 score. The game was pretty much 'Seaforth's all the way through and it was only the very good work of the Clinton goal keeper that kept the score from piling up. No score seas made in the first .half, but Sea - forth ran in four in the second per- iod. The following was the Seaforth line-up: Goal, C. Adams; backs, Dot Reid, Angus Kennedy; halves, P. Doig, Dawson Reid, E. Johnston; right wing,. C. Workman, C. Con- signey; left wing, W. Parke, Pat Chesney; centre, Roy McGeoch. The first game on the home grounds 'will be played on Tuesday evening next, when 'Seaforth will meet Kinburn, last year's district winners. This will be a gams worth while.
