OATTLE.-Last week Mr T. Mason,
of the base line, delivered to Mr D. A.
Forrester:here,51 head of fine two year
old cattle. Mr Forrester is said to have
received the highest price for his cattle
this summer, and Mr Mason believes
this la is so good that it should assure
him the best price next year also.
NOT A TRAXELLER.-On Friday a
gentleman from Londesboro was in
town, and was talking about it being
the day of Hayfield show, when he
made the remark that "he had lived in
Huron for 30 years, and had never yet
got to Hayfield." After the excellent
and admirable way in which Hayfield
has been written up this year by the
NEW ERA correspondent, no man has
any excuse whatever, if he keeps „away
from so pleasant a summer resort.
HOUSE HUNTING. -A Mr Valentine,
of Teeswater, was here last week hunt-
ing for. a house, with the intention of
moving to town; he stated that it was
very difficult indeed to secure accom-
modation here -not a bad sign for the
town. He has rented Mr Worsell's
house on Rattenbury street. Mr Thos.
Murch, of Holmesville, has rented Miss
Robinson's house on Huron street, and
will take up his residence in town at
the close of the present school term.
SHOULD NOT BE A ()OW PASTURE.-
Commenting on an item that appeared
ill the NEW A 'S-COIU,MIIS-abOUW0-
weeks ago, about cows running at large,
the Seaforth Expositor says: -"If Clin-
ton ever intends being anything of a
plaee, it should follow the example of
more progressive towns such as Sea -
forth and Acton, and abandon its old
fogy ways, one of which is allowing its
streets to be a cow pasture." Hear,
hear.
NEW TELEPHONES. -When Mr 3. B.
Rum ball gets moved into his new pre-
mises in the McKay block, which will
be in a day or two, he will not only
have a very fine business' stand, but
will have one of the best and most
complete telephone agencies in the
•west, a fine new switch -broad is being
put in, which will increase the working
facilities. New telephones are also be-
ing put in for the following persons: -
Harland Bros, 2; Mr G. Swallow's house;
Mr T. C. Bruce's office, and the Electric
Light Works.
MARRIAGE. - On Tuesday: morning
Miss Bella, Helyar was married to Mr
J. B. Gottshall, of Bpyertown, Penn.
MrGottshall, who is a prominent teacher
and evangelist among the Brethren,
was educated for the ministry in lar
Philadelphie. Mr Gottshall has shown an
excellent judgment in his choice of a eP
life companion, as Miss Helyar is a he
well educated, intelligent young lady, _
and one of Clinton'S most esteemed in
daughters. We wish Mr and Mrs wh
Gottshall a happy and a useful life.
They left on Tuesday for Boyertown,
the home of Mr Gottshall. They will
spend the winter in the south.
ENTERTAINMENT.A very fair audi-
ence gatheredin the to.withall on Fri-
day evening, to participate in the tem-
perance entertainment. Mr G. Swal-
low was in the chair. It was expected
that Mr Spence, of Toronto, would be
present, but he telegraphed in the af-
ternoon the fact of AlLinavhilitY, to, be .
on hand. However, two excellent ad-
dresses were given by Rev Mr Hughes,
Wingham, and Rev W. Smyth, Clin-
ton. Mr Yellowless gave an instru-
mental solo, and was enchored; Mr and
Miss Sibley gave a duet, and responded
to an encore; Miss Dowzer and. Mr C.
Todd gave a duet: Messrs Sibley, Stev-
enson, Bruce and Jones gave a duet,
and eight members of the lodge sang a
chorus.

ACCIDENT. - The othec (liky while
Dr. Worthington was alighting from
Is buggy., hie toe caught in the KA"
and notWlthstanding all hie efforts to
save IiiMeelf, he was thrown, on his
face. A sya:ained root was, fortunate-
ly, all the injury sustained.
A GOOD PRIZE.-Scrne time ago the
proprietors of the Diamood Dyes -
Wells Richardson 0o. of Montreal --
offered three prizes of $100. 875 and
$50 for the best collection of 20 articles
colored by Diamond Dyes. The com-
petition was open to the Dominion and
a great many ladies entered. The
third prize, $50, has just been awarded
Mrs Worthington, of this place. It is
no small honor to be a prize winner
in so extensive a competition.
EIECTRIC - The necessary
machineryto increase the facilities of
the Electric Light Co here will likely
all be in pooition in a couple of day's.
The incandescent light power will be
increased from 250 to 500 16 -candle
power lights. The Molsons Bank and
residence will introduce electric light;
Mr Jos. Whitehead is having it intro-
duced into his house, the new McKay
block will all be light up by it, and
several of the stores are increasing the
number of lights used.
MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. -A 'meeting
of the Huron Medical Association was
held in the council chamber, on Tues-
dalast. Although the attendance
was not large, the meeting was enthu-
siastic. Sane questions discussed were
"Recent doings of the Ontario Medical
Council," "Pauper practice," "Society
practice." A resolution was passed,
disapproving of the treating by: con-
tract the members of fraternal societies.
A committee was appointed to find
out the feeling of all the members of
the Association, and to confer with the
societies. Some interesting cases were
reported and presented.
FROM A COMPETENT CRITIC. - The
editor of the Mitchell Recorder, Mr H.
T. Race, was judge of fruit at the Hu-
ron Central. This is what he has to
say about it :-"The best all round fall
show that we have attended this sea-
son was at Clinton last week. The
fruit exhibit was very fine, though not
quite up to that of Goderich. The root
and vegetable display, on the contrary,
was much superior to that at Goderich,
and the cookery department was an
attraction of itself. The judges of that
department struck us as being either
hungry, or largely impressed with the
ide_a_thAtt_the_judging-of the pudding_
was in the eating of it. Of some of the
choicest pies the public could but view
the fragments and be content with
that. The Clinton ladies are splendid
cooks."
MECHANICS' INST. ENTERTAINMENT.
Our readers will see by advertisement
that Jessie F. O'Donnell will lecture in
the town hall, on Monday evening.
The admission is low and we wouja. be-
speak for her a crowded house. Of late
these entertainments for the benefit of
the Mechanics' Institute have not been
well attended; can :it be that most of
the people with cultivated minds have
left the town ? It may be so, but still
we hope that this young talanted wo-
man will not be left to talk to empty
benches. The Mechanids' Institute is,
of all institutions the m'ost worthy of
support. It provides our homes with
good literature; and those who have
no home frequent its reading room, and
there find healthy amusement. Speak-
ing of Miss O'Donnell's lecture Rev W.
Searles, D.D., says: "Simply Wonder-
ful." Miss O'Donnell gave her rich and
entertaining lecture on "Three Centur-
ies of English Love Song" to a ver
ge and interested audience at Thous -
d park, in a queenly manner:
eaking without manscript. She held
r audience for over an hour. A New
rk writer says: "she held the intense
terest of the audience throughout the
ole evening."

DISTRICT TEMPLARS.-The regular day
meeting of the District Lodge of Good whi
Templars was held in the lodge room, Alla
in Clinton, on Friday last. There was to I
a large representation present, al- tow
though several lodges in remote corn- says
ers of the district were unrepresented. tecti
After reports of the several lodges had leng
been heard, the District Secretary der,
made his report which showed that Can
only 14 lodges had sent in their returns; havi
during the quarter 69 new members Miss
were initiated, several expelled, and a ed t
number had withdrawn by card, leav- ness,
ing a net increase, as far as could be work
made out, of 37. The membership in prov
the district is about 1,100. "The linan- week
cial support from the Grand Lodge to the
the District being withdrawn, shall and
the latter be retame,d?" was a subject from
discussed, nearly all the speakers taking mak
the affirmative; a standing vote unani- she s
mously declared in favor of its reten- Smit
tion, and a capitation tax of 3c. per the
member per quarter agreed upon as a Mich
fund to sustain the District Lodge. he is
