Tin littIRON OICIMAL,--/r/10 Secret-
ary, Mr W. Coate, haS been very busy
for several dap; attending to the en-
tries for this fair, which takes place on
the Oth and 7th -Thursday and Friday
of this week. Last night (Thursday)
was the only night that the hall was
open to the public. Excellent wea-
ther favored the first day; the inside
exhibit, especially In fruit, is a long
way ahead of previous years, and to-
day (Friday)will likely see both a large
attendance and a good show.
CONVICTIONS.—The total convictions
in the county for the last quarter,
nurubered only 40.-O2 the of1ences-4
were violations of the License Act, and
nearly all the rest were either assault
cases or something akin thereto. The
total fines imposed, including two of
$20 each, only amounted to $98. The
morals of the county are evidently im-
proving, as there is nothing like the
number of magistrate's cases there
used to be in previous years.
TEMPERANCE ENTERTAINMENT.r-A
good entertainment will be given in
the town hall, on the evening of the
14th inst., when addresses will be de-
livered by F. S. Spence, of Toronto,
Grand Chief Templar; Rev. E. H.
Hughes, Wingham, and Rev. W.
Smyth; of Clinton. In 'addition there
will be excellent musical selections,
both vocal and instrumental, and it is
intended that the entertainment will
be first-class in every respect except
the admission, which will be only 10c

'CONSCIENCE MONEY.—A number of
years ago Mr N. Robson had- ten dol-
lars stolen from his till, and he suppos-
ed it had been taken by the clerk at
thattime—in-his-eniploy;T •
he received an anonymous letter in
which was enclosed $10, saying it was
to replace the one taken years ago.
The letter also stated that the writer
was the guilty party, not the clerk.
LITTLE DOTS.—Indian Summer is to

MUCH IMPROVED.—The wife of Mr
P. B. Sibley, as most of our town read-
ers know, has been in delicate health
for a considerable time, and a couple
of weeks' since underwent a critical
surgical operation, the result of which
has been watched with close interest
by her many friends. We are much
pleased fo'be able tb state that she has
safely passed the most anxious point,
and is recovering as rapidly as can be
expected. That she may speedily en-
joy the best of health is the wish of all.
SAFE AND SOUND.—On Tuesday Mr
McGrarva was exceedingly gratified by
receiving a letter from his son Andrew.
mailed from Vancouver, announcing
his arrival at that place in good health
and spirits, notwithstanding the un-
pleasant experience through which he
had passed. With 37 others he was
-captured-by a—Russian -sealer, while
away froin their own vessels. They
were taken on board the Russian vessel
and got the same fare and treatment
as the Russian sailors. Subsequently
the prisoners were all put aboard an
old vessel and turned adrift, the Rus-
sian officers evidently hoping that the
vessel and crew would go to the hot-
-form
ay -but Providence favored the,"
and they managed to reach Vancouver
in safety.
ACCIDENT.—A couple of young boys
were riding bicycles along Huron St.,
on Sunday. afternoon, when Master
Harry Disney came along in a buggy,
accompanied by his two sisters. Quick
as a flash, and before there was time
to check it, the horse wheeled and up-
set the buggy, dragging the occupants
across the road, young Disney being
thrown against a tree, and an ugly
wound inflicted on his head; he was
taken into an adjoining house and
doctors summoned, who found it
• necessary to sew up the wound. The
dash of the buggy and one shaft were
broken. We do not know, but sup-
pbse that the cyclists who were the
cause of this accident, were exercising
caution but in view of the alarming
frequency and serious nature of sonie
of the accidents happening from this
cause, the very greatest care should be
taken to avoid and prevent like on- h
currences. The same evening, while C
Mr Disney' was driving the same horse pl
in a road cart, it was again frightened (1
in the same way, and became unman-
ageable, but fortunately did no harm.
RAPID Won.- On Monday last an
attache of the circus that was visiting
Seaforth, placed an order with Jack-
son Bros., here, at 10 o'clock for a suit
of fine clothes and heavy overcoat, the
precise stipulation being that he should
have the clothes by the 4.45 train the
same da, in order that he might leave
for New York. He expressed his
doubts about getting them so quickly,
but Mr W. Jackson assured him that
the clothes would be ready-, and ready
they were, as complete and well -made
as if more time had been spent over
them, and when he handed over $50
for them, he remarked that "he would
not have believed it possible to have
got them finished up so quickly."

Call it revolution, change, development or any other
pretty name you like; the fact nevertheless remains
that some good old names of articles are becoming
fast unknown to us. Who now thinks of 'asking for
a cravat. The young man of to -day asks for this
article in words like a Four -in -Hand, a Puff,
an Ascot, a Windsor or Bow Please.
Rarely now, it ever, does the Sturdy Yorkshire Man
sing out in his cherry voice "Hast thou got ony
Gallowsers," he has had the later developement of
society,the Suspender inoculated into his vocabulary.
It is only a man who has purchased underclothing from us in
by -gone -days who now asks for Guernseysas the
goods we sold him has worn so well, that not having
to buy of late he never noticed the change of name.
Men used to ask for Socks, now it is Hosiery.
Amid all this change it is consoling to know that what over
name may be applied to Mens' wearing apparel we
always supply every demand. every want in every
case
