ingof the town council, held on Mon-
day evening list, it was decided to pur-
chase from the Ball Electric Lighting
Company. of Toronto, a plant- consist-
ing or one dynamo with 15 lamps of
2,000 candle power each for street
lighting, and one dynamo with 50 lamps
of 1,000 candle power each for com-
mercial purpottes,the whole Acost about
$3,000. They also decided to purchase
a Corliss engine from Cowan &

Blackrof Goderich, for the purpose of
running the Electric Light system, and
of such power as may be deemed neces-
sary, the cost of both to be about $1,600.

works building will entail an expendi-
ture of about $5,900. The amount raised

JUST what is requtred at this season
Of the year. Reid & :Wilson, Seaforth, . are
showing a fine assortment of Cattle Chains,
cheaper than ever. Also the largest and cheap-
est lot of Library and Table Lames ever shown
other expellees, amounting to about "ma
making in all an outlay of about $990,
and to pay which they only receive $00.
It will thus be seen that instead of the
County Society bleeding the Much
Society, as the Times tries to make it
appear, it actually pays out for the
Branch Society $190 more than 'it re-
ceives from it, and thus saves to that
Society that amount, so •that whatever
benefit their is, i all in favor of the
Branch Society.
. DEATH OF JAMES BIGGINS, ESQ.—
Another of Huron's pioneers has been
gathered to his fathers. Mr. James
Biggins died at his residence in Clin-
ton, on Saturday evening last, at the
ripe age of 82 years. Although in fail-
ing health.for some time the sad event
came somewhat unexpectedly at last, as
Mr. Biggins was able to go around un-
til Within a few days of hicdeath, and
attended the show at Blyth On the 9th
inst. He -was a native of Yorkshire,
England, and wasengagedthere as a
Land Surveyor and, Valuator .undeethe
Government. He emigrated to Ohio,
took up a large fern; there. and for, some
years was extensively engaged lathe
breeding of thoroughbred Durham cat-
tle. About thirty years ago when his
son, Mr. W. J. -Biggins, bought his
present farm on the . London Road,
Stanley, 'Mr. Biggins left his farm in
Ohio to another son, and came to Can-
ada. He first located in Goderich, and
after remaining there about a year he
removed to Stanley and resided with"
his son on the farm there until about
five years ago, when he went to live in
Clinton, He took an active interest in
public matters and especially in every-
thing pertaining to agriculture. For
several years he was President of the
Hullett Branch Agricultural- Society
and did much to improve the breed of
cattle in this county. He was one of
those genial, cheerful, warm hearted,
sociable mens.whomit always did OHO
gO0a to meet, and he was always ready
to lend a helping hand to any who need-
ed and deserved assistance. He was a
Conservative in polities and a member
of the Episcopal church. • He was much
and deservedly esteemed both in public
and private life, and, did well his part
in the work of life. It was ever his
aim to do what he could to leave his
adopted country better thanshe found -it,

ON THE WRONG IRACK.-+In referring
to the arrangement existing between the
South Huron -Agricultural Society and
the Stephen and Usborne 'Branch, by
which a union show was held this year
at Exeter, the Times last week says:
The local society accordingto agres-ment
handed over to the County Society the snug
sum of $800, from`which-, and the amount of a
membership 01 400, the county pay e the prizes
to a :sum of about 0/00, and expenses to the ,
amount of upwards 01 8160. On the whole the
county society is virtually the gainer in the
transaction. It receives a balance over and
above everything of nearly $400, While the local
Voiety is minus the gate receipte and $200 of
Ma membership money, leaving only a balance
01 8300, whereas, if the exhibition -had been con-
ducted under local auspices, the home society
would -have been at least 8600' ahead. The
county society in reality has only a inernberihip
Of 95 all told, while the Stephen and Uslicrne
Society's members number upwards of 500, and
why the Directors_ of the horde Society are so
anxious to unite with the county 'society is a
mystery. Of course with the countrshow Comes
a governMent grant in proportion to the num-
ber of members. This year it will aniount. to
$140. This seems to be what the Directors are
grabbing for; but really they lose $300 to pro-
cure $140."
Itis evident the Times has been gross-
ly misinformed as to the facts. If the
arrangement was as stated by the
Times the Riding Society would, un-
questionally have a very good thing of
it, but fortunately for the Branch
Society the :very ' reverse are the
facts. The County Society receives
from the Branch Society the sum of
000, and for this they pay the entire
prize list and the greater proportion of
the expenses of the show, such as prints
ing, judges' expenses, caretakers' and
assistants' fees, &e., while the Branch
Society retains- the whole of the gate
receipts, its own membership fees and
its proportion of the Government grant.
This year the Branch Society received
about $600 in gate receipts; about $400
in membership -fees and $140 in Govern-
ment grant, mtiking in all about $1,140,
and all they pay the County Society is
$800,1eaving them d surplus of over POO.
The County Society, on the other hand,
pay the whole of the prizes awarded at
the show, amounting to about $915, and

special mention made of a load Of bar-
ley brought into that market containing
no less than 102 bushels of fine barley,
and delivered by Mr.McCallum, Thames

load, but let the Exeterites hold their
breath while we tell them a load
of barley was recently purchased
on this market by Mr. D. Mc -
Lennon, our well-known bnyer,
which contained 138 bushels of extra
fine barley, the same having been de-'
livered by one Mr. Morrison, of the

RUNAWAY. —On Friday morning last,
as Mr. James Logan, of the 5th conces-
sion,had his horse hitched to the wagon,
he was called to the house. He left the
team standing in the yard. His little
three-yealsold boy was in the waggon
and also a plow. Before Mr. Logan got
back from the house, the horses got
frightened and ' ran away. They went
fifty or sixty rod' through the field in
the direction of a cedar swamp, then
dashed at full speed into the swamp.
When going across a big log the reach
broke at the same time pitching the box,
the plow and the boy the one way, and
the hind wheels of the waggon the other.
Strange to say, with the exception or a
slight bruise on the cheek, the boy was
none the worse for his fast drive. The
horses went through the swamp and a
short distance through the fields on the
other side, but did not do any serious
injury.

for next season. Mr. Murray has a good
farm in the- County of Oxford and he
has decided to devote all his time and
attention to it. All who have any con-
nection with the Kinburn Cheese Fac.
tory will regret this, as Mr. Murray, by
his genial disposition, gentlemanly man-
ner and thoroughly honorable dealing,
won the entire confidence and respect of
all,. He was not only a thoroughly
competent cheese maker and a good
business man, but was also a most use-
ful member of the community, and while
all will regret his permanent removal
from this place they will heartily wish
him health and prosperity wherever his
future lotmay be cast. The Kinburn
Cheese Factory has won a name and
fame under his management, and his
place will not be easily filled.

and granaries are exceptionally roomy.
Mr. Stephenson has conceived an idea.
by which, during the stormy and un-
pleasant days of the winter months he
will not require to turn his stock out-
doors for water. Directly in front of
the horse and -cattle mangers he has a
trough erected which is fed by means of
a pipe from a well outside and gauged
in quantity by taps at the different
troughs, At each stall is a slideatwhieh,
when pulled back,the stock is allowed to
drink. The idea is a good one, and dis-
penses with considerable unnecessary
labor. Mr. Stephenson is one of our
most progressive farmers, and we hope
he will have .lis barn well filled every
year with crops and herds.
NEW MONUXENT.—Mrs. Joseph Mar-
tin has had erected in her family bury-
ing ground in the Kinburn Cemetery
