so far kept pretty well to the front.
Capt. Todd has held a place in the

THE 1ST .JULY.—The general
committee met on Friday evening.
It was found that the necessary
arrangements could not be nom
pleted in time to guarantee a great
demonstration like the comrnittee
proposed. Not for lack of money,
enthusiasm or workers, butler lack
of time between now and Domin•
ion Day to complete arrangements
and thoroughly advertise the great
attractions. The Mayor relieved
the committees from duty. This
will not, however, prevent a good
•day's sport, as there will be con-
tests in lacrosse, base ball, cricket,
etc., and the boys are preparing to
give as good a programme in this
line as our people could desire to
witness.
DISAPPOINTING. --The final action
of the stationing committee in
placing Rev. Mr. Edge of this town
at Acton instead of at Goderich
after he had been reported for the
latter place on first and second
draft of the committee, will be
somewhat disappointing to the
Goderich Methodists who gave him
a call and expected him. From
what we have heard of the ignoring
of the well understood wishes of
the Goderich people it would
appear that the stationing commit-
tee acted somewhat arbitrarily in
this matter, and that neither the
feelings of the congregation or Mr.
Edge were fairly regarded in the
matter. Though we presume all
concerned are too loyal to impute
"log -rolling" or improper motives
to the stationingcommittee. Anton
is certainly to be congratulated on
getting one of the moat conscien-
tious ministers in the province,
and one of good ability.

COUNTY ORANGE MEETING.—
South Huron County Orange
Lodge met in Clinton last Saturday.
The large hall was crowded with
delegates, probably the largest at-
tendance at a semi-annual meeting
in the history of the county.
There was enough business for an
annual meeting and the session
lasted well on into the evening.
Each District in the county will
celebrate the 12th (131h) wherever
it desiree. It was decided to ask
the Irish delegates to the Triennial
Council to address a meeting in
Clinton. A committee was' ap-
pointed to draft a letter of con-
dolence to the widow and family of
the late Premier of Canada; and a
resolution of condolence was also
carried to the Bros. Scarlett and
family in the death of their mother.
Incorporation was discussed at
some length and County Master
Todd instructed to report on the
matter at a later period. The
The County Master was authorized
to represent the county and attend
the British America meeting at
Kingston. A great amount of other
important business was transacted
after which the meeting adjourned.
Delegates were present from Me-
Killop, Summerhill, Goderioh,
Goderich townsnip, Holmesville,
Colborne, Stanley, Exeter, Saltford,
Clinton, etc., etc., and the meeting
was harmonious and profitable in
every respect.
SWUNG AROUND 1N A DIROLE,—
;Monday forenoon, the quiet calm
,of the previous restful Sabbath was
,still clinging to our citizens when a
team of borsee got frightened at
some vehicles opposite Tipling'e
blacksmith shop and ran away,
pitching the lady occupant forward
on the whifiletrees. She occupied
this uncomfortable position for
several hundred feet, until near
Robertson's store, where she slipped
off. As the horses swung around
in a circle the wagon swerved in
,the opposite direction to which she
avas thrown and was thus prevented
from coming in contact with her,
and she got up and walked away
none the worse for her perilous
ride. During the circular stampede
of the horses a number of citizens
armed with brooms, walking canes
and umbrellas tried inefectually to
stop the ''fiery steeds" but it was
only when the ubiquitous and
resourceful Alec. Hillen threw
himseif in the deadly breach, and
was himself cast to one side, prone
to the earth, by the legs of the fleet -
footed animals or the front wheel
of the wagon, that the excited
animals were brought to a stand
still, : nothing the worse for their
exciting constitutional. And all
ended well. The teem was owned

CONSIGNED To THE TOMB.—The
mortal remains of the late Premier,
Sir John A. Macdonald, were con-
signed to their earthly resting place
at Kingston last Thursday after-
noon. It is said that about
15000 persons gathered to pay their
last respects to the deceased chief -
tan. From this county we noticed
the names of several present :
Mayor Butler and Reeve Proudfoot
of Goderich ; Mayor Clegg and H.W.
C. -Meyer Q. C., Wingham, Major
Keine, Jas. Perkins and W. H.
Clegg, Gerrie ; R. L. Taylor, Capt

W. J. Johnston. Morris. , In Clin-
ton all business places were closed
from 1 to 4 p. m., in accor-
dance with a lagely signed re-
quisition to Mayor Doherty and
hie proclamation, and the town and
St. Paul's church bells tolled a
solemn requiem for the iilgstrations
dead. Here, es all over this broad
Dominion, irrespective of politics,
all seemed to express their tribute
of respect for the mighty one fallen.
While all did not and do not agree
with every political act in the life
of Sir John A. Macdonald, there
seemed to be consensus of opinion
that he was a man of undeniable
unselfishness and fertility of re-
source, and that, right or wrong,
the goal of his ambition was bis
country's welfare, according to bis

MR. JOHN SMITH was in Toronto
at the High Court Canadian Order
of Foresters last week. Don't all.

SYMPATHETIC.—Last week at a
special meeting of the town council
presided over by Mayor Doherty it
was unanimously agreed that a re-
solution of sympathy for Lady Mac-
donaldand family in their great aflfic
Mon be sunt to that lady. In accord-
ance amemorial, handsomely engross-
ed by Clerk Coates, was forwarded.
At a special of meeting the Clinton
Liberal Conservative Association
similar action was taken, as also at
the regular semi-annual meeting of
the South Huron County L. O. L.
NEW BANNING HOUSE,—Mr. G.
D. MoTaggart is now established in
the new brick building on Albert
St.,' especially constructed for th is
business. There is a fire and burglar
proof vault with all the precaut-
ions for absolute safety that the
most competent firm on the contin-
ent in such matters, Gouldie and Me
Culloch, Galt, could devise. The
general office is nicely fitted up with
counter ate of native woods, and the
other apartments will be fitted so as
to make it pleasant as well as profit-
able for those having business to
transact. As Mr. G. D. McTaggart
is favorably known,and having taken
over the business of his late father
Mr. M. McTaggart, and having the
necessary experience, courtesy and
wherewith to carry on the business
as a bank of discount and deposit,
it is but fair to presume that the
public will find this house a great
conveniienee. See card in another

Thie is an article worthy of every lady's

If you waut to save time and labor, buy a

If you want your ironed clothes to look neat

It you want the starch to stay in the clothes
on the line in spite of rain or frost, buy a box,
If you want everything to look like new, such
as shirt bosoms, collars, cuffs, lace curtains, etc,
buy a box.

BIG NEw POTATOES.—Ex-Mayor
Whitehead showed us the other day
samples of potatoes about the size
of the average eggs of the gallinac-
eous domestic fowl. Helgrew them
in his own plot. It is unusually
early in the season to have home
grown spuds fit for table use on the
13th of June, and the fact will not
at all support the contention of the
uninformed that we live in a hyper-
borean latitude.
C. O. F.—Mr. W. Sperling, who
was delegate from Clinton to the
High Court of Canadian Order of
Foresters which held its 12th ann-
ual session in Toronto last week
has returned home, the Court hav-
ing adjourned on Saturday the 13th.
Over 100 delegates were present.
The report of High Treasurer was
very satisfactory. Balance from last
year $108,014; receipts $96,419,65,
an increase of $21.142,57 over last
year ; 60 claims were paid $60,000,
leaving a balance to carry forward
of $144,433.65, that is $1,154 of a
guarantee in the surplus for every
$1,000 of liability. This is a pure-
