WE regret to learn of the death ofdMrs. Robt. Morrison, mother of Somerville,. t,gwn, at t;kteLege. of 65 years. The funeral took place last Thursday from the family resi- dence, Usborne, to Mcraggatts cemetery, and was largely attended. Mn. R.B. FOSTER of Clinton, spent Sunday in Wingham, the guest of his father. 1Z`. L'., as we announced last week sang a solo at each service in St. Paul's church. He is the possessor of a rich, clear voice, and uses it well—Wingham Advance. THE prevailing epidemic is no re- spector or persons. Dr. Shaw is the lastest addition to the long list of sick. IID has boon confined to his rooms for several days, but we are pleased to learn that he is on the mond. The Dr. was greatly missed at the military ball Friday evening. TAE -NEWS RECORD is sorry for having mentioned among th.e.nuntss of Conservatives who would bo fit and proper persons to represent West Huron in parliatnent, a couple of local gentlemen whose modesty suggests that they would not bo equal to the occasion. There are scores of other local men, however, whop, the people would delight to honor, whom we might name. A LIGHT STEP.—The whole art stud mystery lies in a single sen- tence : Put the ball of the foot down first, throwing the weight up- on it, and letting the heel come to the floor the hundreth part of a second after. Treading flat-footed —over all the sole at once— the weight comes with a jar that is about equally destructive to quiet, to grace, and to shoe -leather. By stepping first on the ball, just back of the toes, its cuahiony muscles act as a spring, and make of walking a double pleasure. Try it, boys and girls, for just one month, and see if it does not help you in many ways —not to mention the benefit to the older • people about you.—Harpers Young People. r�.

It was not as well attended as it ehouldliave been. CHIEF WHEATLEY took in charge on Monday a notorious character of Victoria etreot—called a man—for threshing his wife and stepchildren. He was to have been brought before the Mayor yesterday. A few months labor at Caetle Dixon might cool him off. THE extensive accommodations of our town hotels were taxed to their utmost Friday night, the evening of the military ball. Many of the guests were, perforce, obliged to, accept invitations from owners of private houses which were ungi•udg- ingl!, offered. THE school trustee election in St. James' Ward, necessitated by the election, ou municipal election day, of. Thos. Jackson, jr., a -hold over trustee, was held •Monday last and resulted in 27 votes for Mr. Geo. Stewart and 9 for Mr. John Mc. Garva. The meagreness of the vote is proof of the iwpolicy of holding school trustee elections at any other time than that of municipal election day. • But in this case there was no remedy as Mr. Jablcson could not be a dual representative. RUNAWAY.—On Saturday a horse attached to a cutter made things lively for a few Minutes. The ani - mai was tied to a lamp post in front of Robson's grocery. Through some cause the horse jerked the tie line and broke the eight -foot post off at the bottom and bolted scrota Dins- ley's vacant corner lot and down 1{attenbery street with the post dangling in front of it. It came to a stand of its own accord at Searle's corner, with little or no damage. A double team at the same time headed up Rattenbury atreet,but were easily stopped without any damage. INTELLECTUAL FiGHT.— Friday evening last in the hall of the School of Practical Science, Toron- to, there was a debate between students of Universities of McGill an d Toren to. Resolved—"That the effects of the French Revolution of 1789 have been beneficial." Mr, J. A. Cooper, of Clinton, was on the side of the affimativo and gave some strong reasons in favor of bis posi- tron, but Prof. Baker decided_ in favor of the :aiViafilM- hough `the' defeated side "had displayed super- ior rhetorical ability and. clearness of statement." 0, An !—Some of the Grit pa- pers have taken the nomination of a Conservative standard bearer for \\rest Huron out of the hands of the Conservative • Convention and say that J. J. Hawkins is the fortunate man who has been selected. It may not be out of place for us to say that the Convention will neverthe- less do business at the old stand, Smith's Hill, on Feby. 3rd and uutil that date no nomination will be made. But then the future re- presentative of West Huron will be 'selecteil"aiid•'lr'y` a mien -and strong pull old \ est uron will again drop into the ranks as a supporter of Canada and good government. TWO -ROWED BARLEY.—Mr. Thos.' E. Bays has shown us a sample of two -rowed barley grown on one of his farms, near Seaforth, during the peel seaspn. Mr. Hays had six acres and a quarter under crop, and it averaged 50 bushels to the acre and weighed 56 lbs. to the bushel It is a beautiful, bright, plump sample. Fifty-six pounds to the bushel is the standard for No. I barley in the old country, so that this barley would command the very highest price in that market. When we consider that this I set year 35 bushels to rho acre and 50 lbs. to the bushel was a good yield •for i,he ordinary six -rowed variety, the profit of growingtwo-rowedwill be apparent if anything near asgood a yield as Mr. Nays could be depen- ded upon. It is also said that the two -rowed makes a stronger, better feed for stock, and the only thing a• gainst it is that it will not take in. the American market, but if it can be grown to suit it will command a higher price in the English market than we formerly got for the six - rowed in the United States. Moet of the experiments thus far mado with the two -rowed have been fairly satisfactory, while in some instances, as with Mr. Hays, it has given an extraordinary yield. It must be said, however, that last year was a peculiarly favorable one for it, but enough is already known to justify farmers who have suitable soil for it, to 'give it a fair trial, as it would seem as if this is likely to be the variety that will at least take the market for some years to Dome. The seed used by Mr. Hays was of the second year's growth in this country, and the soil was a rich, atif'clay, which he considers to be the best adapted for it.—Expositor. Tie ri!i!tar 211 The Towha. Bali Taxed to Its Utmost Capacity With the Youth and Beauty of • Neighboring Towns. The Most Brilliant Assemblage Ever Seen in Clinton; The military ball in Clinton last Friday.eventng was looked -forward toby:its promoters with the fondest hopes, and when •the hour name every hope was fully realized. Tho hall presented a very pretty ap- pearance dressed in red, white and blue bunting, large and small flags, Japanese lanterns, weapons of 'war, the windows in parlor garb, andlthe stage as comfortable and happy looking as one's own parlor. All this was in keeping with the happy and brilliant aesetnblage present— the youth and beatify of this and other aoctions. 111r. Thos. Ranco end Lieuts. Combe and Rance, and Lance Corporal Ball, also Chief Joseph Wheatley (for ,years on Her Majesty's service), worked like soldiers and to them in a great measure is due the handsome ap pearance of the hall. The music was furnished by the Italian string band of London, the best to be heti. There were twenty five numbers and four extras, and there were in all about one hundred and ten couples taking pant. The supper was look• ed after by caterer Boyd' and assistants, and all were high in their praise of every arrangement. Lieut. - Col. Smith, D.A G., London, could not be present owing to the death of Prince Victor. Now that the 33rd Battalion officers have succeed- ed so admirably, the military ball should be mado an annual affair. This is just what the Battalion has required .for years, and Clinton is seldom behind in taking the initi- ative. The work that falls on the Hon. Secretary is considerable, but Lieut. Combo is equal to the task. Among those present were the fol- lowing ladies and gentlemen : SEAFORTH. — Misses Wiison, Mr. and Mrs. D. D. Wilson, P. T.

The auditor's report, which was read and adopted, show- -ed the -receipts• for the-^yeer••to bo, $558 and .the disbursements $591, thus showing a deficit on the year's transactions of $33. This deficit is due to the fact that the weather on the second Gay of the show was very wet and dieagreeabte, causing a large falling off in the gate receipts. The gate receipts at the fall show amounted to only $91. 53, but had the 'weather been favorable there would have been double this amount.
