Pellttcs, Generally.
While the Canadian people are not
called , open just at present to go
threugh the mental strain and physi-
cal activity of an exciting political con -
WA, their fellows in adjacent lands are
having this experience. In England
e political contest is in full swing,
Id if is being conducted with an in-
eity that is unusual. The support -
of Mr Gladstone realize that if
Rome Rule is to become an accom-
plishedfatt, it has abetter opportunity
of success during his lifetime than
s otherwise, and they are, therfore, mak-
ing the most strenuous efforts to suc-
ceed in the contest. The prospects

opponents have the advantage of being
the ruling party:

words, as he favors free trade, he is
alleged to be un-American. This is the
same old loyalty cry, in another form,
that was made to do service during the
Canadian elections, and it will, doubt-
less, affect some votes. Mr Cleveland

The above is the junior 4th. It will be
seen that the pupils are not fit for the
principal's room, but as no other ar-
rangement can be made the class will
be taken in, but will be kept at junior
work. At the end of the term if they
do not work well the names of the
pupils will be published with marks in
each subject. Most of those pupils are
indolent, some do not attend regularly.
This class and Miss O'Neil's will be pre-
pared for the entrance In July 1894.
Most of the pupils in both classes'are
too young to be pushed forward before
that time.

THE CROP Otrreools.-The continued
rain has, it is feared, seriously damaged
the prospects of various crops. Corn
in Western Ontario will be almost a
failure. Of peas there will be a short
crop. Potatoes are said to have rotted
on low-lying or clay lands in many
districts, and the total yield will be
short. A great deal of the fall whea,t
has been thrown down, and may not
be able to gain strength enough tostand
up and ripen unless the weather chang-
es very materially, and that soon.
There will be an immense crop of hay,
and the yield of roots will also be large
Apples promise to be very plentiful.
Berries of all kind will be more plenti-
ful than usual.

again, after spending a few days with
his son at Kirkton. Mr. and Mrs Auld
are both in very poor health at pres-

having taken unto himself a wife, in
the person of Miss Curry, of the Nile;
his -numerous friends- welcome the
bride to Westfield, and wish them
both a pleasant journey through life.
-THE COW AGAIN. -Outhe cow ques-
tion a lady says that the chief objection
she has to cows roaming the streets is
the manure they leave upon the side-
walks. It is ditigusting in the daytime,
and on a dark night is destructive to
clothing and limbs, the electric light
having no effect where the foliageabove
is as dense as it is now.- The cow her-
self ruminates somewhat as follows: -
To be free or not to be. is the question
now that's troubling nie ; while now at
large. of my sweet will, of grass or gar-
den truck get my fill; if shut within
the pasture field, just as much milk
and cream I'll yield; but don't you see
that, while I'm free, it costs so little for
feeding me; my troubled thoughts keep
me awake, and if I see an open gate
that to a garden goes, I'll enter there
while all is still. and as I eat- and eat
to fill, I'll calmly wait, inside the gate,
or out upon the walk,to hear the Coun-
cil talk.
Protectionist papers point with pride
to the circumstance that our exports
to Britain are more than they were a
year ago. So they should be, but it
, , indicates no greater prosperitY because
i‘W
they are. It simply proves the con -
a tendon of the Liberal press that, being
islutt out of the nearest market by the
McKinley tariff, Canadians are compel-
led to use any market that is open, and
that of England always has been.
SUCCESSFUL. - The Sunday school
picnic, on Thursday of last week, was a
decided success, and but for the threat-
ening state of the weather, a much
larger crowd might have been expect-
ed, although the crowd that attended
was by no means small. The commit-
tee had the grounds fitted up in first
class order with swings, boats and
°thee Ainusements, and altogether a
awes' enjoyable time was spent. The
entire scene was photographed by Mr
E. C. Potter. Among the visitors we
noticed Misses L. Smith, E. Andrews,
S. Kilty, Mrs J. Ford, Miss Upshall,
Messrs B. Davis and T. Calbick, all of
Clinton; Miss Johns, Wingham; Mrs
Leech, Goderich.
WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY. -Very nice
weather, isn't it? You silly boy, why
don't you fight the lamps? I 'doubt your
word. It is time we had the sidewalk.
You should have heard us singing, it
was almost heavenly. Do you think we
will have the camp meeting here next
summer? The singing is not theatrical,
it is abominable. 1Nfliat foolishness, to
put every little thing in the paper. It
Would be better if, on Sunday evenings,
those passing out of the church first,
would not say everything they had to
say on the steps, but give those coming
behind a chance to reach the door be-
fore the lights are turned off. Mr and
Mrs Jones were at our house for tea
last night, would you please see that it
goes in the paper? I guess we will not
go to church to -night, we will stay and
have a picnic in our orchard.
On Thursday night the residenceof James
Mann, 16th oon. Grey, was destroyed by
lightning. Nothing was saved, theinmates
having barely time to esoape with their
lives.
Mies Cargill has resigned her position in
the public school, Fordwioh, and intends,
after the holidays, to remove to Duluth,
Minn., to pursue her studies as an elocution-
ist.
Mr McKenzie, foreman of the Brussels
salt -works, was killed on Tuesday evening
by his team running away. He was thrown
out and a wheel of the wagon struck his
head.
Mrs Newton Campbell, of Westfield, met
with an unpleasant accident on Tuesday
last. While descending the Oak she mis-
sed her footing and fell, spraining her ankle
severely. She has not been able to walk
since.
It is rumored that Miss Geddes, of
Auburn will tender her resignation with
a view of teaching near the parental
roof, in Elgin county. This is to be
regretted as she has proved to be a Army
affieient teacher and made a host of warm
friends.
S. Y. Taylor, principal of theParis public
school, an old Huron boy,had been forced to
give up his work until the close of the term
owing to a severe attack of whooping cough.
Mr Taylor is a son-in-law to George Crooks
Grey.
Mr Hanhofer Henforzor, had a boy help-
ing him to make brick, named Earnest
Fisher, from Stratford. Last Sunday
while Mrs Hanhofer was in the garden the
boy took the purse and contents ($17,)frons
a drawer and skipped.
Mr James Kehoes of neeforth, met with
an accident which might have proved fatal.
He was coming home in a light waggon
along with Mr Keating and was sitting be-
hind in the box of the waggon, when he slid.
denly fell out on his head on the hard road..
About noon on Friday George Monteith,
aged about 25 years, son of Robert Mon-
teith, of the Thames road, Usborne, Huron
county, was shaving himself to go to a picnic.
When about half done he dropped off the
chair and died immediately. Heart trouble
was the cause of death.
Wingham. ,
CHURCH.- The union services were
brought to a close on Wednesday ev-
ening of last week. The meeting was
held in the lecture room of the 'Pres-
byterian church, the place was very
much crowded. Rev Mr Watson gave
the address, his remarks were founded
on the words, "What meaneth this,"
from these words he gave an excellent
address. He referred to the interest
which had been manifested at these
meetings and hoped that they would
have a union meeting once a month or
so. Several took part in the meeting;
in closing Rev McQuarrie said he hop-
ed that the union that now existed
between them would ever continue.
NOTES. -The Wingham and Luck -
now lacrosse teams played a game on
the park here, on Friday of last week;
after playing one hour, each team
made one goal. On Saturday of last
week the Listowel foot ball team came
over here and played a game with
Wingham boys, the former made five
goals, the latter one; they showed
Wingham boys how manly the game
ca -n be played. The races on Tuesday
brought a large crowd of people to
Wingham. Owing to the rain last
Friday the ladies postponded their
garden party for a few weeks. Mr W.
Green and wife spent a few days visit-
ing friends in Huron township this
week. Mr Jas McTavish, of Lochalsh,
spent a couple of days in town this
week visiting friends. Mr George Mc-
Tavish and daughter Ida are visiting
friends at Verden and Lochalsh at
present. Miss Harburn is visiting in
Hibbett thie Vreek. We ate serry to
say that Mr It. Elliott, of the 'Times,
is tiot Jimmie ing very rapidly.
Zurich.
NOTES. -Mr. Henry Lei bald, who
had been attending college at Napier-
ville, Illinois, for a couple of terms,
arrived home on Saturday last, to
spend his summer holidays. Mrs. D.
Stelk has greatly improved the appear-
ance of her property, by erecting a
neat new fence. Twenty seven pupils
of different schools in the country are
writing for the high school examina-
tion in this village-, we wish them all
success. Our public school was closed
yesterday (Thursday) for a term of
eight weeks, as well as in former years
six weeks. Mr. S. J. Latta has taken
charge of the Exeter entrance class
this week, and Mr Brown, of Exeter
has taken charge of Zurich school.
The Evangelical convocation of this
place intend holding their Sunday
School picnic to -day (Friday) at Bay-
field; and the Lutherans are holding
theirs at R. Taylor's grove. Our bi-
cycle club is making rapid progress,
and Zurich can claim the honor of hav-
ing some very good riders. Quite a
number attended children's day, which
was held at Dashwood on Sunday last,
the day was all that could be desired,
and consequently a large crowd attend-
ed. Some of our farmers have started
haying, but the majority seem to wait
for less rain.

WAR DANCE. -Our quiet village was
kept awake to an unusual hour one
Sunday night, by wair-like sounds issu-
ing from one of the back streets. Ear-
ly Monday mor n ing we made enquil ies
as to the cause of the commotion, and
ascertained from some small boys who
itneseed thaseproussaassalejghlwbags
bridge, the following report, which we
give verbatim: -"As we were coming
from church on ourway home, we
heard some sharp voices, and on turn-
ing around saw a party of seven or
eight men and women surround one
man; we were frightened and climbed
up on the bridge for safety; for a while
we could not make out what they
said, but as the conversation became
louder we caught snatches now and
again as -"What business have you
here?" "Such singings" "I doubt
your word," "It's abominable." "Bet-
ter stay at the quartettes till you can
sing something better.J' "Such dis-
cord." "It was mean to- turn us out
anyway," &c., &c. It looked for all
the world like a pack of Lndians trying
totorture a captive but in spite of
their number were unable. tc, inake any
headway. We thought it would last
all night, but towards midnight the
mob moved away, leaving, the one man
master of the field, and we also slid
down the other side of the bridge and
ran home as quietly as possible.

For some weeks past, cables "a Member
of Parliament" to the New York Herald,
there have been rumors afloat in London
to the effect that Mr Gladstone intends to
take refuge in the House of Lords after the
approaching general election, and it is not
at all unlikely that be will do so. Disraeli
was not particularly anxious to become a
peer, but the time arrived when he could
no longer stand the hard work and late
hours of the House of Commons, and had
either to take advantage of the leisufe af-
forded in the Upper House or retire from
active politics altogether. Mr Gladstone
finds hnnself in much the same position
now. Although his health is styprisingly
good for a rnan of his age, still the inevi-
table infirmities of eighty-four years are
pressing heavily upon him. His physical
strength is failing, he is growing very deaf
and his eyesight is also giving way.
