CENSUS COMMISSIONER for the
County of Huron, Dr. Case, was in
Clinton Wednesday last when
returning from the funeral of his
late uncle Mr. F. Case, Soaforth.
"WATCHED" AND 'A THAT. -Mr.
J. W. Green, the retiring proprietor
of the Parkhill Gazette, who bas
been staying for a few days with
his father-in-law, Mr. John Croll of
this town, was, previous to his leav-
ing Parkhill,preeented with a hand-
some gold watch and complimentary
address by the leading citizens of
that place, among thein b ting Mr.
W. H. Hutchins, the M. P. elect for
the North Riding of Middlesex.
Mrs. Green was also presented with
a beautiful silver cake basket.
LAwYERs Holt, Campion. and
Proddfoot of Goderieh attended the
sitting of the Division Court in
Clinton last Friday, Judge Doyle'
presiding. Messrs Scott and Man•
sling wore also present, and the fact
that the Court sat from 11 a. m.
until 7 p. tn. and theu left several
eases untouched, shows that, there
was considerable_ business t;, do.
Litigation is said to be one of
-the signs of improving times.
Contradictory as it may seem, it to
.claimed that the more prosperous a
people are the more contentious
they are.
EDITOR MCGILLiCUDY,. of Goder-
ich, when about to return home from
Clinton one day last week by the
late evening train, was pacing the
station plattorm,whethor in "maiden
meditation fancy free" or absorbed
in contemplation of the many- in•
stances of grossly illegal acts he
heard of in ADnnection. with the
election of Mr. Cameron, deponent
saith not : but whatever the cause
the "all aboard" of the conductor
escaped his attention and he might
yet be pacing and meditating,' -wait-
ing for the train," had not the Rat,
tenbury House 'Bus driver,who had
driven him to the station,plied him
with the query "I thought you were
going to Goderich" when the reced
ring train was about two miles die
tont on its way to the county town.
It's an ill wind that blows no body
any good, and one of our liver
firms profited to the extent of the
cost of an equine motor to convey
the gentleman and hie friend to
Goderich.
MR, S. E. SALLS, of Clinton, has
accepted an agency for The Mutual
Life Insurance Company of New
York. This company has certified
figures to show that it is the largest
iu=nrance company in the world,
having a surplus of $9,981,233.38.
Last year it paid to its policy
holders over $16,000,000. Its
assets are $147,154,961.20. It is
one of those companies whose
prosperity is but one of the many
proofs that nothing "succeeds like
success",•its business laet year being
larger than during any year since
its organization in 1843, the new
risks in 1890 being over $160•,-
000,000. No one doubts the
utility, nay the itnperative necessity
of every person having something
for those dependant on him to fall
back on, when it may be the slow
but unerringly sure sweep of old
father time shall telentlossly mow
down the head of the family. To
those wishing inauranco, we know
of no Company that makes a better
.showing than the Mutual Life of New
York. And we know of no gentle.
man whom applicants can do busi-
nese with in a more pleasant and
satisfactory manner to themselves
than with Mr. Saila. In our deal•

and the Crooks Act make it illegal.

OBJECTED TO BEING A WALKING
ADVERTISENENT.-"Tarn that wrap-
ping paper the other side out", said
a lady in a dry goods store the other
afternoon as the clerk was putting
up her purchase in a printed wrap
ping paper. "I don't want to be a
walking advertisement,to your store.
I read the local papers as all intelli•
gent people ought to do, and I
think in thein is the place to adver-
tise your business," Instead of ask-
ing your customers to carry your
sign around with each purchase of
goode,go and tell the people through
the papers what you have tosell aud
how you sell it.
A Coon MAN GoNE,-Wednee-
day last our Mr. Whitely accompan-
ied Mr. James Hearn to Seaforth to
pay their respects to the memory of•
Mr. F. Case whose burial took place
on that day. The funeral was one
of the largest ever seen in the coun-
ty, about 120 vehicles being in pro-
cession and a large number
of pedestrians •present also. Deceas-
ed was a brother of the late George
Case who contested old South
Huron with Mr. Biehop and was
only beaten by some half dozen
votes. He was a farmer and cattle
buyer and raiser. During the forty
years or more since the writer first
became acquainted with him he has
yet to hear the first word disparaging
his conduct as an honorable and
Christian man.. The tuany express-
ions in harmony with Ibis statement
by those who had life long dealings
with him is ample proof that the
good which men do does not die
with him. He was 59 years of age,
'was in politics a Conservative, and
a member of the English church.
He leaves a widow and eleven chil-
dren well provided for,
MAStNLO SUPPER. -On Tuesday
evening the 281.h ult a banquet was
given Mr. Owen Ballard by his
fellow Masona and friends in town,
at the Grand Union Hotel, which
was perfect in all its parts and com-
plete as a whole, everythifig having
been taatefully and carefully attend-
ed to. Mr. R. Hoy wood, \V. M.,
occupied the chair and conducted
the affair in a manner calling forth
praise to himself and satisfaction to
all present, The table was charm
ingly set reflecting much credit on
Host and Hostess Spooner. Of
things drinkable and edible, of
things ibteresting and instructive
there was abundance and variety
suggesting both the mysteries of
culinary science and. the greater
mysteries of the Masonic art. First
the supper called into play the
energies of those assembled in the
most pleasant and palate stimulating
way, and they demonstrated their
ability to deal generously with what
had been prepared, after which
their talents were directed to the
honor of the guest. All were con
genial anirits, and the state of cou•
toutinent produced by their good
dinner caused them to boast with
pleasure, and to give voice to ex
pressions of good wishes. tempered
with regret at losing so good a
citizen. The compliments were
well deserved, Mr. Ballard having
made ninny friends by his urbane
manner during his five years or more
in town, during which time he has
'held the position of foreman in an
important branch of the Doherty
Organ Works. Among the work-
men he will he touch missed. In
his departure musical circles also
sustain no small loss. He was ex
pert on several instruments and was
willing at all times to respond to
many requests to entertain in this
connection. He left here Thursday
for Paris, his home, where he will
remain for a few days and then
proceed to West Superior, Wis.
Among those whose presence graced
the farewell supper, not connected
with the Masonic Order, were J. L.
Gaeb.
A., A. E. Weeks, P. L. S., all do-
ing much to make the assembly an
impressive and pleasant one.

FIRE. -Saturday night about. 12.
30 the lire alarm sounded w heti it
was found Mude's reet.auraut was
on fire, caused by the explosion ,'f a
coal nil lamp. The at (ismer api1 ti re
brigade were out. in short order and
the Hamer confined to Mode's. There
was an insurance of $700 on the
stock, hut it is thought the damage
wi,lamount to more than this. Mr.'T.
Jucksou'sstouk in the adjoining store
was damaged by smoke to the ex•
of probably $75. The building is
owned by Mr. Jackson end wan
damaged t0 some extent wlii ll le.
more than covered by insurance.
BRUSSELS P. O. ROBBED. -It is
getting to be quite a common affair,
this robbing of postofces. The
country is so properous that remitt-
ances through and deposits with
these branches of her majesty's set -
vice are so numerous that
crooks have glade a deal
set on them. Early Monday morn-
ing burglars blew up the sate in
Brussels P. O. While they were at
work a Mr. Macdonald,who had been
out of town, was mailing some lett-
ers from the outside was about to go
away when one of the burglars per-
suaded him to remain until his pals
got through by presenting a revolver
in his fare. They got a $25 watch
and two registered letters: Had
not Mr. Farrow deposited $300
after bank hours they would have
gotten that much more. No arrests
yet.
A GOOD CONCERT. -The 1. O. F.
concert on Friday evening last was
a most successful one taken front a
view point on either side of the
curtain. The audience was a large,
intelligent and highly appreciative
one. The rendition of the program,
containing excellent selections, was
heartily applauded and vociferous-
ly encored and had the remarkable
feature, as the chairman Mr. A. H.
Manning remarked, of not having a
change made in it. Mrs. Caldwell
was, of course, "the star of the
evening" and in eeoh of heli-num•
bees received a well merited tribute
of sincere applause. \Ve can state,
without fear of successful contradic-
tion, that never before on the Clin-
ton stage did any vocalist so favor..
ably impress the audience. Those
even for whom music has no par•
titular charas, or who are more
inspired by the noise of an ordin
ary Gerinar, band, were aestheti-
cally gloved to a remarkable degree
by her singing. The tick of a small
parlor clock could he heard distinct-
ly throughout the hall and the
nndience seemed to realize with
regret that each tick brought }ler
selection nearer an end. Her
firat "Le carnival de Venice" was
delightful, and at the earnest solici-
t'ition of the audience she respond-
ed in en eurore with "clang up the
baby's stocking.". "The ILaiuy
Day" in the second part gave full
opportunity for the exhibition of
the skill which eke possesses to so
marked a degree, it fairly captivat-
ed the audience, and after the
tumultnous anplanse had subsided
she gave "The (`nekoo Sung " l'he
encore was encored apd it was most
pleasantly acknowledged by her.
Her popularity may be judged to
some degree by Mrs. Caldwell's
own expression when she said that
never before was she better received
than in Clinton. Mise Cargill and
Mr. Crawford in their recitations
were lustily encored in Finch piece
as was also Prof. Bohner in his
solos. The local quartette club :
Mies Walker, Messrs Kay, Foster
and Harland, did not, we deem it,
receive the greeting they deserved,
for they were well trained in good
selections. Dr. Oronhyatekha and
Mr. J. A. McGillivray, Q.C., each
Alelivared. en-address-alrvwlrr niece
benefits and eectfrity of the Order.
In all it was one of the best con-
certs ever given in Clinton and
should any of those taking part in
it ever return they are sure to be
welcomed by a throng of admirers.
THE Humor of ALOOMA preached
in St. Paul's church last 'Thursday
evening on mission work. His
Lordeltip is a good speaker and his
discourse was touch appreciated by
a fair audience. The offertory was
liberal and in aid of mission work
among the Indians.
MAYon W. AND J. L. DOUERTY
left fur Cleveland on Monday where
there is a big sale of first class horse
stuck. \Ve believe it is ;heir in-
tention to secure a sire of such
pedigree and 'blood that his services
in this section will do much to im-
prove our class of horses and btiug
thein up to a standard that will
secure their sale at best paying
figures.
