While the Farmer's Institlite meeting Was in progress in the Orange Hall, on Friday evening, members of. both polit- teal parties being present, Bonaeoue jokingly remarked that "it was a rare thing to find so many Reformers in an Orange Lodge Room.," Daring the severe cold weather of last week, Mr John Medd, one of the section men on L.

Mr James Turnbull, late Principal of the Clinton Collegiate Institute is here on a few clay's visit; he looks exceptionally well, notwith- standing his severe illness, and is most cordially greeted by his; many old friends. Among the many guests from outside of town, who vere present at the nilitary ball, Friday evening, were Hon. A, C. Strathdee, U. S. Consul, Wingham, and wife. Two or three runaways occurred in town_ on Satur- day, but with no serious results. Miss Ettie Farquhar has returned to town, after spending a week with her brother at Hills Green, and "Billy" smiles his sweetest.

LOST THEIR WAY.—The other night Mr Snell, who resides on the north gravel road, was awakened about 1 o'clock, by a party who claimed to have lost his road and wanting to be direct- ed aright. The party was aClint,onian, Vd it seems that in coming homefrom kih, in company with another we - son, they bo went to sleep. e horse, left to itself, turned into -Mr W. Mury's lane, and circling around a 4 . cou e of times, had finally landed in ?the corner of one of the fields, upset- • 'ling the sleeping occupants out in the 'snow. Beyond a broken shaft and the cold experienced, the pties were none ;the worse of their careless mishap. At Youxo SCA.3fP.—On Sunday last a horse and cutter belonging to Mr Beattie, Lake Shore road, Goderich -township, --were- - driven -away from - the Union Chnrch, while service was in progress. They were taken by a younghoy.namecl, McCabe, who, if all i they say of him s true, seems to be an incorrigible. He is only about nine years of age. The boy came down to Clinton, and drove around town aim- lessly durting the afternoon, and tow- ards evening turned the horse's head towards Goderich; when near Holmes- ville he drove into Mr G. Lavis,' and asked for accorninodation for the night, telling a most plausible story, and • aVoidrng carefully all efforts' of his host to prove his stories to be false. In the morning he started for home, but his father was waiting at Holmes- ville for him and took him in charge. It is said that the boy had been absent frpm home since the early part of the week. It looks as if the adminis- tration of a little "strap oil" would do this youth 'good. • MILITARY MATTERS.—The Canada Gazette contains the following: 33rd Huron Battalion of Infantry, 0.— Lieutenant John Pollocl, No. 7 Com- pany, Second Lieutenant James Hen- ry Wells, No. 1 Company, and Second Lieutenant Nelson Thomas Ritchie, No. 2 Company, having failed to at - Presentation to James Turnbull, Esq., B.A. A very interesting and pleasant in- cident occurred at Wilile Church on Tuesday eVehing tiii: MrJas. Turnbull was made the recipient, from the congregation, of a silver service. At the close of an address delivered by Rev. J. W. Shilton, of Rattenhury St Methodist Church, the Rev. Mr Stew- art -who occupied the chair, in fitting terms referred to the presence of Mr Turnbull,who is about to sever his con- nection with the congregation. He ex- plained that it was thought that the occasion of his leaving should not be allowed to pass without giving him something to carry away to mark his long and honorable association with the congregation. Mr Turnbull' had been identified with the educational interests ot the Town and County for a period of over 20 years, and the school, under his management, had risen from a very small institution to be a flourish- ing Collegiate Institute, and he could say,conflning himself simply to his own church, thatlsome of the most,promising men in the ministry had received their High School training at the hand of Mr 'Turnbull. During most of the time of his residence in Clinton, he had been closely identified with the congrega- tion of Willis Church, and it was not 'necessary that he should refer to this at length; it was sufficient to say that he had proved himself thoroughly loy- tend annual drill, their names are re- al to the congregation and to the cause moved from the list of officers of 4the 1 of Presbyterianism, and he could safely active malitia.—The ball given in the say,that as pastor of the congregation, Town Hall, Clinton, on the evening of the 22nc1 inst., under the auspices of the officers of the 38rd Battalion, is said to have been exceedingly suc- cessful, in fact, so much ap that it has been decided to make the affair an annual gathering. About three hun- dted guests were present, festivities being tenth:wed until 4.80 a. m. The hall vras beautifully decorated, red, white and blue bunting stretched from side to side, lace curtains and flags adorning the windows, while rifles and bayonets were artistically affixed to walls. A SAD DEATH. —The wife of Mr Wm. Grant, Dinsley terrace, died on Friday evening last, the result of a sad and painful experience. For many years she has been a cripple, and being in- firm, managed to walk about with the aid of a stick. One evening last week, while it was bitterly cold, she went out to milk, but fell down in the snow, and was unable to regain her feet. Her calls for help were unheard, and she soon beeame benumbed and helpless. Later in the evening Mr Grant, missing her, went out to see what was wrong, and discovered her lying in the snow. She wank,carried into the house, and cared for, but the shock and exposure was more than her weak system could stand. -Deceased was formerly a resi- dent of Tuckersmith, but has lived at the southern extremity of this town for a number of years, during the whole of which time she has been a patient and faithful member of the ttetibury Street Methodist Church. Not able to get around ninch, her life was a daily evidence of faith under ad- versity, and strOng confidence in the Saviour. All her children are scattered in different parts of the States, but one of her daughters, Mrs James Bowey, arrived here from the vicinity of Du - 'fah the morning of the pesal. The remrkins Were Interred at .0W/A he had found no warmer or more loyal friend than Mr Turnbull. In the name of the congregation, he expressed the hope that Mr and Mrs Turnbull would find much happiness in their future life, and assured them of the combined interest, good wishes, and prayers of the people of the con- gregation, and without any formality he asked him to accept from the con- gregation the silver service which they desired to presentIO Mr Turnbull,inlaccepting, spoke feel- ingly of his departure fromChnton. He said that his thoughts were running in two channels, one of sadness, as he dwelt upon these partings which were in- cident to an experience here. He thought of the many changes which had taken place during his 23 years rysidence in Clinton, and he had at one time hoped that when he retired from his profession he would have spent his remaining years here, but an over- ruling Providence had ordered it oth- erwise. But these were feelings of pleasure as well as of pain. He could think with pleasure of the confidence which had been reposed in him at all titnes, as manifested by their having placed him in the various offices of trust, which he had filled in the con- gregation, of the uniform friendship and sympathy which had been shewn him, and now as he received this very beautiful token, he felt that he vvas not forgotten, and it would always be sa- credly preserved by him to remind him of hisin and profitable associa- tions n Willis Church. He returned his heartfelt thanks to the congrega- tion for the very valuable present. At the close of the meeting a number took the opportunity offered of exarnin- i rig the gift, which consists of a salver having the following inscription en- graved"Presented to as.Turnbull,B.A., by the Congregatiefi of Willis Church, Clinton, Janna , 1892," and sirt other trner mom-, pieces of a nea u1d chaste design, told ei 0 :•eetred ft in Idessix grunballaa. prices at which we are selling LADIES & GENTS Fine Furs Are proving an irresistable temptation to many shrewd buyers.
