THE MILITARY BALL, Friday evening this week, promises to be one of the most popular and success- ful events of season. The Hon. Secy,, . Lieut. Combo, has received favorable replies from many prom• inent gentlemen and ladies, among them Lieut. Col. Smith, D. A. G., and Mrs. Smith, Londi h. While the- 33rd Battalion will bo largely represented, the Battalions of ads joining counties will be well repre- sented by their commissioned ofli. cess. CONCERT.—The concert in the town hall, :,linton, Thursday of last week, under that popular inapressar fess, if wo;way be allowed to coin a word, Aire Juliau Nall, asrpated by competent artists, was all that the moat fastidious could expect. Un. fortunately Miss MacCorrnacof Goderich and Miss Jackson of Clin- ton did not participate, much to the disappointment of, tfle friendsof these favorites of the music loving. Otherwise the entertainment way all that,, could have• been desired from an artistic point of view, while the attendance and financial results were greater than plight have been expected under the circumstances.. Speaking personally and for many friends .we may say 'that we shall be pleased to again hear Mrs Wall. FIRE.—One of these least expected and less desired incinerating pro - ceases commenced Monday evening last, id our town, about half past six o clock. It commenced in the rear room of the building pn Albert street occupied by J. C. Gilroy as a general dry-t.,00ds store and spread until it nd the adjoining premises occupied y J. B. Ruwball, jeweller, and the orner store occupied by John Cun- inghewe as express office and fruit nd dontectionery store, were coin, letely destroyed. Mr. Cunning - lame was uninsured, his lose will be omplete, so far as it goes, but com- aratively small. Mr. ltumball'a loss ill be fully covered by insurance, ost of his stock having been re- oved with but little damage.. Mr. ilroy, who nsaally carried a stock f from 1113,000 to $I5,000, will be he' greatest sufferer. At•.the time f,the fire his stock would not have een nearly up to its normal pro- ortions were it not that in view of he early spring trade he had laid in n extra supply of goods for that eason owing to the seyluctiveneas'of he markets in the way of prices at his off season' for° these goods. His ock may have comprised 'goods of e value of gay $13,000, of which robably 350,0 only was saved, in ire of the most strenuous exertions ' hundreds of willing friends. It is robablo his books have been saved, ut at time of writing this is by no eans certain. The origin of the e is well determined and was ui•ely the result of an accident that uld not have been foreseen.' since e introduction of the electric Lights r. Gilroy has had unused several ::ging lamps formerly used in the ow -windows .:--On,-,the-evening of e fire an employe had arranged ine ol'these lamps in a rearroom, the lower flat, so that customers uld be conveniently shown therein examine goods instead of going stairs as formerly when the lower t was occupied by ,dressmakers. e of these lamps exploded while e employees were at tea, Mi. Gil. y being the sole occupant of the nt ,store which is separated from e -rear show room referred to by a rtition in which was a door. Mr. lro,y etheard the report of the ex- oon, but knowing that a,neighbdr the rear, only a few yards distant, onged to the gun club, he assum- the report was that of some cart- ges being fired off. In afew min - s he heard a crackling sound in rear and opened the partition or, more out of curiosity than m any well' grounded, alarm of on his own premises. Much to amazement he fpund the rear m a mass of flames. In the ex ement of the moment iae rushed to give the alarmof fire, unfor•. ately leaving the door open. The sh air rushed in, adding fuel to flames and torcing the heat and oke into the front part so that en assistance arrived, which was ost instantly, there was little t could be done to save the main ck. The firemen and the steam ine were on the scene in the rtest possible time and under the nagenlent of Chief Coats, Captain uton and as gallant a crew of men ere.ever alternately roasted and en, the saving of buildings and ek was essayed, w' h the results ve stated.

MR. JOHN BEESLEY, of Marlboro, Man., twelve miles from Moosejaw, brother of Mr. W. Beesley of this place is in, town renewing of friendships. Besides being post plaster of 'Marlboro, Mr. Beesley runs a farm and last year raised 4000 bushels of grain: It is about tea 'years siuo he left here. He likes Manitoba well and knows of no one who has gone there and been ordinarily idustrioue who has not done fairly well. Standard wheat there is aorth 70 cents a bushel. WE aro indebted to Mr. C. C. Rance, of Rat Portage, Ont., for a copy of the RECORD, a readable paper published at that place. There are two other towns, Norman and Keewation, all within three miles, on the C. P. P., with a total population of 4,000. It is expected that the three will- merge into one ere a score of moons have passed, and the euphonious name of "Triune City" ie what the amalgamation will be known by. And it is expected from the almost inexhaustible mineral ,and timber resources in that section that Triune City will bo the future manufacturing centre of Northwestern Ontario. • FRozEN ArPLEs.—A corroepond- ent of the Germantown Telegraph says that apples that have been frozen in barrels if, before they are thawed, are treated as fol- lows, will come out bright and clean and look better than over : Say, the Bruit in the frozen state is in barrels, stand the barrel on the bottom head, remove the top head and enopgh of the fruit so that that the barrel is full, lacking one half of a bushel, then fill the barrel rounding full �of clean sno)y well_lingtied: down; place the 'barrel in a moder- ately warm room, and in a day or two they will be all right and bet ter than before frosted. ELECTION UNCERTAINTIES. -There is 'omething strange about election requisitions. For instance, Ald. Copp, of Hamilton, was brought out as a mayoralty• candidate by a re-. quisition signed by 1,632 electors. His cause was championed by the temperance party and aided by the majority -of the ministers of the city, and yet on day of polling the worthy alderman only received 1,442 votes ! It must be assumed that fully ono -third of those who asked him to take.the field did not vote for him after getting him out, for it is acknowledged ,that he re- ceived many votes from electors who tvere not on hie requisitions: It is a miserable piece of business to in- duce a man to take the field and then to deliberately let him tumble into the soup on polling day. Liberal-Consepaaties beet. The annual meeting of the Liberal -Conservatives of West Huron was held at Smith's Hill on Wednesday last. The sleighing be• ing excellent there was a splendid gathering. The main object of the meeting was the election of officers. Incidentally the havoc made a- mongst the representatives of the alleged party of purity,by theelection courts, was referred to. Among the slaughtered, it will be remembered was the irrepressible M. C. Cameron of West Huron, Casual reference was made as to who the Liberal Conservatives would be likely to bring out in the coming bye-elec- tsou to oppose the Grits in West Huron, but discussion "thereanent was considered premature and con- sideration deferred until Feby. 3rd.

IN AND ABOUT THE COUNTY —The Grand Valley Star, Well- ington County, 'gives some interest- ing details of a broken engagement between Miss Hay, a Colbeck school teacher and Dan Sinclair, a Luther farmer. At Miss Hay's school en. tertainment she was presented with a ring as a forewell gift by ber pup'. ils. She requested some one 4n the audience to put the ring on one of ber fingers. but no one volunteered. There was a little boy, one of her pupils, who had one of bis legs little fellow to put the ring in its place. "I have a great deal of sytn pathy for him," said she, for he has qw , �utieipation. and ftealilatiQfl', Some people claim that we mortals take more pleasure in the former than in the latter.

The boy with the broken leg did not toe the mark, and then Miss Hay expres.ed a willingness to hayo Dan Sinclair put the ring on her finger. Dan was present but refused to be chair- man. Dan stepped forward, mon- key with the ring a little while, and then proceeded to put it on one of the fingeril of the discarded lover. He feared that if he put it on the engagement finger he would be ren• during himself liable for an ,action at law, but Miss Hay wanted it on no other digit and there wad con- siderable sparring and finger hand- ling for a time. At last somehow the ring got on the rightffnger and theproceedinge terminated. It is said Miss Hay has given Dan back the $200 that he paid her. --Smallpox is alarmingly pre. valent in some parte of Germany. NOTICE.
