GEo. EMERSON is an authorized representative of the CLINTON NE'wEne CI!ANGE.--14 is said that the Prince ofjWates hotel will change hands at the end pf the year. Mr` Bell is not yet certain as to what he will do then. ORGANS. — Business is more than booming at the Doherty Organ Fac- ' tory, and no wonder,when instruments that have a world=wide reputation for beauty of construction and musical excellence are the only kind manu- factured. On Wednesday they receiv- ed orders for 76 instruments. SOMETHING TO BOAST OF.—The Clin- ton NEw ERA and the Wingham Times, are the only papers in the Coun- tyy of Huron that set up all the type for :their reading matter. All the other papers either get part of their paper printed away froth home, or else use what is known as "plate matter"—type all ready set up. SONG SERVICE.—The children's an- niversary and song service of the Pres- byterian church, will be held on Sun- day, Dec. 6th, and the managers of the Sunda School are expecting a big collection for their library fund. There will be three services on that day, and no more popular man could be got than their pwn pastor. A GENEROUS LOVER.—A young lady of this town, whose identity we shall not reveal, is making preparations for her approaching marriage. The young man to whom she was engaged thought so much of .her, that: he made her a present of $100 with which to purchase a wedding outfit. This was very gen- erous to say the least. The Clinton NEW ERA has donned a new dress, and although the size of the paper is slightly smaller than the old sheet, the paper has been very much improved and is a credit to the town of Clinton, Mr Holmes is an in- telligent journalist, and keeps abreast of The times, which is more than a large majority of his confreres can truthfully say.—London Free Press. A RUNAWAY BOY.—The other day a youth belonging to Goderich ran away from home, andwas found near here. He gave his name as Tompson, and while waiting for the train that was to take him home, gave his hearers plainly to understand that he not only had .a very futile imagination, but that he and Truth had no acquaint- ancewith'each other. CIaatsINa—Mr J.H.Cornyn, of Wing- ham, a graduate of the Clinton Colle- giate, has been called to a posi ti on on the Stratford Collegiate Institute staff, made vacant by the illness of Miss Platt. While attending the Clinton Collegiate Institute and Model, Mr Cornyngave promise o£greatusefulness in the teaching profession, and he has had considerable experience since. Pupils who attend Clinton schools are usually the ones that get to the .high- est positions. - A CANNUCig.—The Detroit Free Press publishes an engraving of the Detroit Foot Ball Club, and in the accompany- ing description of the players we find the following:.—"Fred Corbett, the out- side right forward,was born in Canada. Like the rest of the club, he has played the game from boyhood, first on the Clinton club, and afterwards on the crack 'Varsity team of Toronto. He came to Detroit three years ago, and helped considerably to start the game here. His age is 26, height 5 ft. 7 in., weight 140 lbs.- Fred is a fast runner, and passes and centers unselfishly.— He has played in every game since the club was organized, and scored a fair percentage of the goals won. He is the secretary of the club, and an active worker for the advancement of the game. SAD DEATH.—About a month ago Mr Joseph Brownlee, of this place, went to Montreal for the purpose of undergoing a surgical operation for kidney trouble, trona which he has been suffering for a considerable length of time. Being somewhat enfeebled, it was thought prudent not to perform the operation until he had got stronger, and on Saturday last it was performed. It was more, however, than his consti- tution could stand, and on Tuesday morning he died. He was the third son of the late James Brownlee, of Hullett, (whose widow resides in town) and was a most exemplary and indus- trious young man, until compelled by illness to cease work. He was married to a daughter of Mr J. Morrish, and leaves a wife and two children; and Was a member in good standing of the Ancient Order of United Workmen. His remains were brought home and interred in Clinton cemetery yesterday afternoon, being met at the station by the Workmen, and followed to the cemetery by the same Order. Mts.'1~odd, mother of A. M. Todd of the News Record, died at Woodstock, on Thift srlay afternoon. Deceased was stricken with paralysis about a week ago, anti heart failure set in, which ntiirsed her death.

A bister of Dr Gunn, will, it is said, enter the matrimonial state in a few days, and afterwards take up her permanen residence in Scotland. We are sorry to hear that the mother of Mr B. P Sibley is very low; the operation she recently underwent was apparently more than her system could stand, although at the time she cemed to im- prove. The other evening, as a csrtain gentleman was returning to town in his buggy, he narrowly escaped what might have been a bad accident by the axle breaking. The Sons of Scotland hold a supper at Kennedy's Hater, next Monday evening. Miss Amy Howson has taken a position in Coop- er's Bookstore, as assistant Book-keep- er.
