JUST LUCE THEM, —Alluding to a•
recent entertainment iu Seaforth, the
Sun says:—"A party of young gentle-
men from Clinton wer& present and
contributed much to the program, by '
their quartettes, mouth organ selec-
tions and instrumental solos, which
were all very much appreciated. A
variation on the program was some
fine club swinging by one of the gentle-
men from Clinton."
REFUGE, AND. COW,. „•=A..
1,,•-• • special meeting of the town council
was held on Tuesday evening. Among
other things, it was decided to take a
vote on allowing cows to run at large,
and also on the House of Refuge. All
ratepayers will have but one vote on
the latter, but on the cow question
they can vote in as many wards as they
are on the assessment roll for. The
vote on the cow question will not set-
tle the matter, but will be an index of
sentiment for the coming council.
,A WILL REMAIN.—Mr Barrow, of the
Alolsonsi Bank, who was recently pro-
moted:to a position in the head office
at Montieal, and who intended to take
his departure last week, will remain
here ard continue in the position that
it was intended should be filled by Mr
Smilie, of London, wffo has left the
bank's service. The citizens whose
business brought them into contact
with Mr Barrow, will be pleased that
he remains here, as they have hitherto
found him exceedingly affable and
obliging, and one with whom it was a
pleasure to have dealings.

DOMINION STALLION ASSOCIATION.—
A meeting of the Directors of the Do-
minion Draught Stud Book Assdcia-
tion was held at the Rattenbury House,
on Tuesday afternoon, all the members
being present. A number of Matters
relating to the Association were dis-
posed of, and arrangements made for
the annual meeting of tire Assoeiation,
which is te be held in thegown Hall,.
Clinton, on Wednesday, lye..21, com-
mencing at 1 p.m., when it s antici-
pated that all the members wil. be pre-
sent, as important business will come
before the meeting.

NOMINATIONS—The nominations tri:1
year, more especially those in the
country, are likely to be of greater in-
terest than usual, for the reason that
they take Rlace on a 'holiday, and also
the discussion of the House of Refuge
glierition will likely be taken up. The
meetings Wing the representative and
the represented raorktito touch, and
arc often the only odebti when can-
ateli May air their eloquence, And

TIO4IPAT TRADE.—The holiday ,tieft,

rum trade has begun and alloPPIng

BY.EgneeS enterPriSet ingenUity P,E4
competition havo multiplied in a be-
wildering fashion the number and
variety of holiday gifts. Our modern
holiday stocks are bazars of extraordi-
nary beauty and remarkable d,iversity.
The irapromement in 'the matter of
variety is not more noticeable than
the improvement in' the matter of
cheapness. A man of moderate-meana
can supply hinuelf with holiday giffi
at an ontlay that would have been
ridiculously inadequate twenty years
ago. The triumphs of human ingenu-
ity and inventive genius have brought
about this welcome revolution. Only
the very poor are barred from a par-
ticipation in the benefits that progress
has conferred upon mankind—bene-
fits that are so manifest at holiday
time. Our enterprisingmerchants do
much every year to assist in the solu-
tion of the holiday problems that con-
front nearly every man and woman.
It must be an exacting taste that they
cannot enlighten and gratify, and it
must be an impoverished purchaser
whose resources they cannot accom-
modate. There is no good reason why
any holiday, shopper, no matter how
abundant his means or extravagant
his taste, should go dutside of Clinton
to make his purchases. Our mer-
chants are able and ready to meet all
demands, and the NEW ERA wishes
there all a successful Season.
NoTEs.—Mr D. S. Cita Mechanical
superintendent of the Goderich organ
factory, (brother-in-law of Mr George
Armour, Clinton) has been ill for two
weeks with congestion of the lungs,
but is now on the mend and will soon
be at work again. Mr Brig Kaiser has
been confined to the house for a couple
of weeks by inflammation of the knee-
cap, and will not be able to get around
for a week or so yet; Brig says this is
not an "kneesy" thing to put up with.
Mr Jas. Smith, of this town (son of Mr
R.. Smith) who is laid up with typhoid
fever in Brantford, is recovering nice-
ly and will be at work again in a few
days. Mr W. Grant, who has been
living with his daughter, Mrs Bowey,
at West Supetior, for a year past, has
returned to town and is likely to re-
inain here. The child of Mr F. W.
Watts that underwent a surgical oper-
ation last week was not able to stand
the shock, being very low at the time
the same was performed, and passed
away on Friday. Mr Jas. Snell, of
Hullett, attended the sale of thoro-
bred stock at the Model Farm, Guelph,
on Tuesday, and also the Live Stock
show at the same place, on Wednes-
day, for the purpose of purchasing
stock; Mr Snell is one of the most en-
terprising of the maiw good stock
raisers in Huron, and stands well up
in the front ranks. Masters George
Hodgens and Fred Davis, who have
been in Manitoba for the summer,
have returned home; the latter holds a
quarter -section of land there and will
likely go back, but the former has
gained all the experience in prairie
farming that he cares for, though he
likes the climate, and will remain in
Clinton. Mrs Jas. Turnbull, . of To-
ronto, who has been visiting„here;
abouts -for several weeks, returned
literev:47.1-Ma:,4 morning. The Mac-
pherson Sr Hovey Co. purpose putting
three arc electric lights in their work-
shop, to facilitate operations during
the winter months. Mr Stewart, bas-
ket maker, has been laid up for a
couple of weeks, but is improving.
r C.• A. Chant, B.A., of Toronto Uni-
versity, and brother of Mr H. B. Chant,
Clinton, has been appointed one of the
examiners to prepare the various pa-
pers required for the high school leav-
ing and university matriculation ex-
amination for 1893; this is a res ousible
position for a young man to hil, and
shows that his superiors have confi-
dence in his abilities. The Rochester
Chronicle of a recent date says :—
"Marshall R. Dutton, of this city, has
been appointed to a position in the
overnment bureau of printing at
...asbington;,", ;)ls...gentleman is the,
.only brother of Mrs James
Shep-
pard, Townsend street. The mother
and sister of Miss Jessie Oliver, who
have been residing at Seaforth for the
summer: left for New York on Tues-
day, owing to the illness of Mrs Hood,
Mrs Oliver's daughter. Mr W. Rout-
ledge, of Godet ich township, has moved
into the house just over the railroad,
on the Bayfield road. Mrs G. Swarts,
of Wingham, paid her friends in Clin-
ton a short visit this week. A brother
of Robert Agnew is now with him in
his office. Jackson Bros., clothiers,
furnish a good object lesson by the to-
boggan slide erected in their window,
and the crowds who have stopped to
view it emphasize the point that an
attractive window display draws at-
tention. An open meeting was held in
connection with the Temperance lodge
last (Thursday) night. James McLac-
harty is out again, after a week's con-
finement in the house with mumps —
Mr. John Ross, formerly of this town,
is now in Idaho, and it is said that he
has struck a mine that is paying well;
he is also interested in a patent that
promises,good returns. Mr Hayward,
inspector of weights and measures is in
town in his official capacity; his posi-
tion is one of the many unnecessary
ones connected with the administra-
tion. Mr Chas. Cooper (son of W.
Cooper) has severed his connection
with the Goderich Organ Co., and will
go to a business College at Toronto
after the holidays. Clark Wallace,
who is seeking' re-election in West
York, met his Orange friends at Wood-
bringe, on Wednesday night, and the
report of the gather ing brings in the
name of a well-known-Hnroman when
it says: — Brother Floody expressed
(4 -mat pleasure at being present at this
interesting • meeting and wished the
Grand Master many years of prosper-
ity and enjoyment of the confidenee
of those with Whom he had been so
long associated. Davis & Rowland
have just put up a neatly lettered sign,
the work of Mr Geo Bowers, Mr Jas.
A. Ford has moved into the house late-
octupied by Mr SwaffinTd, on Mary
