cess in the west. Mr Thos. B. Fowler,
jeweller, Galt, made a short visit to his
relatives here last week. Mr Josh.
Hamner, of Toronto, forinerly of Clin-
ton, has suffered a severe loss by the
death of his second eldest daughter,
Ida, from diptheria. The many frinds
of Mr John Callender, of London, (son-
in-law of Mrs Reid) will regret to learn
that he has been for several weeks

MoNtmENTs.—Mr Seale, of the Clin-
ton Marble Works, took among his
ether orders last week, two for =nu-
rnents that will be among the finest in
Exeter cedietery. One was for the
late Mr Jory, to cost ; and the
other for the late Mr Ijorrell, too° st
$200.
FIRE COMPANY. — We undePstand
,that there are a few vacancies in the
Fire Company owing to the resigna-
tion of ,several of the members, and
that application for the position will
be received by the Town 011erk up to
Friday night, when we hope that the
company will be completed. There
should be no difficulty in keeping the
company up to the high standard hith-
erto maintained.
BRICKS.—For three years the brick -
milking machinery of Jtir Thos East,
the well-known manufacturer of brick
and tile, has been idle, so far as the
manufacture of brick is concerned,
though in the meantime he has turned
out a very large quantity of excellent
drain tile. This year, 'however, Mr
Eat intends to manufacture brick
again, and will doubtless turn out
quite a lot.
TOTAL ABSTINENCE.—The lodge of
I. 0. G. T. is growing nicely, now
members joining at every meeting.
It has been decided to hold the meet-
ings of the lodge, for the next month,
in the Orange hall, over Jackson Bros
store, and in the meantime efforts are
to be made to secure permanent hall ac-
commodation. Friday night is the
, night of meeting for the present, and
the support of all in sympathy with
' total abstinence principles is earnestly
asked.
LIMNING ToWN.—Mr J. A. Giffin'B.
of Clinton Collegiate Institute, has
been engaged as Science master for St
Catharines Collegiate Institute, and
will enter on the duties thereof the 1st
sf April. St Catharines Collegiate
Institute has the name of being one
, of the best in Ontario, and will even
gain by Mr Giffin's addition to the
• staff. He is a capital fellow; an ex-
,cellent worker in religious circles also,
and one of the kind of men whose re-
moval is a loss to any town.
DEATH OF MRS CHAMBERS. — Brief
mention was made last week of the
death of Mrs Chamber % at Grenfell, N.
W. T. She was one of the oldest resid-
ent of this town, having resided here
continuously for about 30 years. Last
fall she decided to visit two of her sons
in the Northwest and it was while
there that she contracted grip which
---Tealiltetrifilfer-delith--a-t-the age of35"
years. She leaves a daughter in Tor-
onto —Mrs Josh Hamner—and three
sons, only one, Joseph, now living in
Ontario.
MANUFACTURE OF PIANOS.—The en-
terprising proprietor of the Doherty
Organ Factory is about to branch out
into the manufacture of pianos. The
success that he has made of the organ
business. which will be continued with
'unabated vigor, is an assnrance that
the new venture will be equally suc-
cessful, and the reputation of the Do-
herty Organ is a guarantee that the
Pianos will be of superb style and
workmanship. We wisb Mr Doherty
unlimited 'success in this new branch
of business, and certainly expect to see
no other piano sold in this neighbor-
hood than those of the Doherty Make.
ONCERT COMPANY: — The Emma
W lis Comedy Co. played for a week
i he Town Hall, to crowded houses
each night. They then left for Goder-
ich; if they do not have full houses
each night where ever they play, it
is not the faillt of the plays, etc., for
everything is first class. The last night
they play is just as good as the first,
and they never need be afraid of com-
ing back to a place the second time,
for they are sure of a well filled house;
each play is first class, the concert is
free from vulgarity. The farces are
excellent, and -Miss Emma Wells is a
renowned pianist and singer, and has
few equals.
SEEKING DAMAGES.—The night of
the election, when the boys were scour-
ing back yards and alleyways for mat-
erial with which to replenish the bon-
fire, they were notes particular as they
might have been in reference to the
articles appropriated, and took pretty
nearly anything that they could lay
their hands upon. Some persons allege
that they lost articles of value, and ex-
press their determination to bill the
council for the same. Unquestionably
the council is, to a certain extent, the
'custodian of the property of citizens,
but the circumstances of these cases
are unusual, and we question the pru-
dence of trying to recover damages.
Metter la the matter drop.
