NEw ENGINEER,—Mr Alex. McCrae,
of Toronto, who holds a Provincial
Certificate as a certified ,engineer, has
been engaged to take chargee of the en-
gine'at the Doherty Organ Factory.
WILL BUILD.—We understand that
W. Butler, of Goderich township,
' who lately'sold his farm, will ;take up
his residence in town. The lot fdrmer-
ly:occupplIed by Kelly's hotel belongs to
him,andlie will probably build thereon
INCIPIENT FIRE.—On Sunday after-
noon last some :one carelessly threw a
lighted cigar on.a straw heap at the
rear of Davis' Livery, and it was not
many minutes before the whole thing
was in a blaze. Fortunately it was
discovered and extinguished before it
had made much headway.
SAFES.—The Doherty Organ com-
panyare putting in a very large safe,
to replace the small one in use; the
new one will weigh about three tons
and stand nearly eight feet high. R.
Holmes has bought the safe belonging
to the Worthington_estate, having
sold his own to Mr James Swan, of
Brucefield,
- A BAD FALL.—On Saturday Mr Jno.
Worsen, formerly a popular resident
of this town, met with a serious acci-
dent. He was engaged in repairing
the steeple of the Episcopal church,
Goderich, (which had been damaged
by the heavy wind„ storm) when he
slipped from the scaffold and fell to
the ground, breaking his thigh bone
and injuring himself internally.
BUSINESS CHANGE.—H. and M. Mor-
rish have bought out the baking busi-
ness hitherto conducted by Mr Wm.
Young, and take possession next
week. They are industrious young
man, well known in town and will en-
deavor to merit a share of the trade.
Mr Young intends to build a house
this year, and desires to give his time
and attention directly to it.
A SUCCESSFUL STUDENT. — Miss
Bessie Ross, daughter of ;Mrs A. Ross,
of Brucefield, has just returned from
the Ladies' tColigny College, Ottawa,
having been successful in carrying off
the Gold Medal in music, Gold Medal
for general Proficiency, and a Silver
Medal in Botany These are very high
honors, especially for one, so young,
and who has only been a student at
the College for a few months. She is
a graduate of polinton Collegiate and a
pupil of Mrs Whitt, and both may feel
justly proud at the high standing of
the pupil.
IT WAS A SUCCESS.—The other day
a young man whose sphere of labor is
not far from the station ticket office,
undertook to ride a bicycle without
previous practice. After a few pre-
liminary, skirmishes he got it properly
balanced and started down the road,
his pace increasing as hegathered con-
fidence. Some distance ahead of him
was a load of gravel, and he endeavor-
ed to either pitse.it or slack up, but his
speed was sp great that he could do
neither, and he struck the waggon
with a force that nearly knocked it off
the road. The waggon wrs uninjured,
but the cycle is undergcing repairs.
A CAPTIVE AT LAST.—After trying
for a considerable length of time to
keep himself free from the snare of
matrimony, Mr Ed. T. Holmes, of the
NEW ERA, has at last acknowledged the
supremacy of woman's charms, and on
the evening of the 27th, he meekly and
willingly surrendered himself, and:was
led a captive into Hymen's bonds. The
lady whose . personal magnetism he
could not resist, was Miss Louie Cole,
of St. Catharines, (eldest daughter of
Mr Aaron Cole) and she looked just as
charming as brides always do, while
theroom—that's Ed.—was more or
less (rather less) as complacent as the
circumstances would permit. Mr Jas.
Varley, of St” Catharines (who vows
he had no ill -will in the matter) stood
by to see that the groom passed safely
. through the ordeal, ' and did not
"weaken" just at the opportune mom-
ent, ghile Miss Jessie C.Te, sister of
the bilde, gracefully lent her charming
presence and help. Rev. W. Van-
Wyck, of Hamilton, tightened up the
cords, while a large crowd quietly and
admiringly stood by, and volunteered
no relief to the captive. That the
bride was popular, was generously
shown in the customary manner.
After they spend a week (and a lot of
good Money) in visiting Cleveland,
etroit, and other little places, they
will sdttle down to "love in a cottage '
and become permanent residents of
Clinton. ,
MASONIC,—On Sunday last, the Free
Masons of Clinton Lodge, No. 84 G. R.
04 A. F. A A. M. attended Divine
sereice in St.Paul's Church. There
were also a very large number of
brethren from other parts of the courn
ty in attendance. Seven Lodges were
well represented, and the present
W. M's. of the same were all there.
There was, without doubt, the largest
- .collection of P. Ms. ever gathered to-
gether, thirty five being present.
Three Grand Lodge officers were
rescin.t, biz. r. Beck, Goclerich, D. D.
}. M.; Bev. J. H. Fairlie, Clinton,
rand Chaplin; B. W. Bro.ackman,
Exeter, Grand Steward;also thedistrict
superintendent of the R. A. Masons,.
R. W. Bro. Humber, : of Goderich.
The•brethern of Clinton Lodge,in their
irSual efficient, manner, had air.uiged
for the aecotnodation of the ;visitors,
Who unanimously expressed them-
selves as highly' pleased, with their
reception, The•Lo geopenedprompt,-.

monies were gone through. Bro.° Dr.

from the 33rd' chapter of St. Matthew,
and the 8th and Oth yerses, Riad preach,
ed a sermon that was listened to with
great satisfaction by all the brethren,
a better one has never been delivered
to the craft in Canada. After service
the brethren ;marched back to their,
hall. Where short addresses,were given
by the.1; ; D. G.11., R. W. Bro. Spack-
man, and W, Bro. Collins, of 'Exeter;
W. Bro. Hod ens, Seaforth; W. Bro.
Hamilton, ..Blyth, W. Bros. Mackay
and Benediet,IHettsall; W. Bro. Park,
Goderich; an '\V. Bro. Brown, Smith's
Hill. This** the largest and inost
enthusiastic gathering of Free Masons
ever witnes ed in this county, and
rarely.eguatled in our largest cities.
Free Masonry is gaining rapidly all
over Canada,never in its history has
dt showfi sucprogress as at the present
time; nearly every Lodge has all the
work it 'can possibly attend to. R. W.
Bro. J. Beck of Goderich, D. D. G. M.,
to whom a • good deal of the credit is
due for the success of the gathering,
was highly pleased at all the arrange-
ments made by the Clinton Brethren,
and also for the splendid attendance
of the visitors.
NOTES.—Mr W. H. Perrin contem-
plates putting a hay press to work in
town to supply the export trade. Mr
W. Jones returned from his World's
Fair trip on Friday, having spent two
weeks very pleasantly and profitably
in viewing the wonders of the fair;
while there he met Mr Owen Ballard,
formerly of Clinton, who unfortunate-
ly has been off work for a month owing
to an injured hand. We congratulate
our esteemed friend, Dr. B. R. Smith,
of Seaforth: on his election to the vice-
presidency of the Ontario Medical As-
sociation. Miss Hillen, of the Ratten-
bury House, who has been visiting in
Detroit, came home Saturday. Miss
Nellie Walker, of Detroit, is home for
her holidays. Flax 3 feet 5 inches long
,and in flower, was left with us on Sat-
urday by Mr H. Carter, of Goderich
township; with the rapid growth of
the season, it would grow nearly a foot
since then. Miss Minnie Henning,
Godterich, (sister of Mrs Swaffield,) and
well known here, was married last
week to a gentleman in London. Miss
Gauley has been visiting in Brussels.
A little son of J. H. Worsell, Goderich,
late of Clinton, was knocked down on
West street Saturday afternoon, by
one of the mail stages, a wheel passing
over one wrist and one leg; fortunately
he,was net seriously hurt, and a day's
rest found him able to go out again.
The wife of Mr Jno Snyder, of Clinton,
who underwent an operation at Gode-
richlast week, -was able to return to her
home on Wednesday; with her husband
she has gone on a visit to friends at
Preston. Miss Martha Trewartha,
who has . been residing at Qu'Appelle,
N.W.T., for some time, has returned to
town, and expects to remain here For
the future; she finds the climate there
more vigorous than she , can stand.
Miss Sarah Malloy, of Detroit, is visit-
ing her relatives here. Mr J. A. Cook,
of Toronto School of Medicine, `s home
for the summer holidays. Mr Chas.
Cooper, of Toronto, is home on a visit.
Miss Sarah Acheson, of Goderich, is
visiting friends here; she leaves in a
few days to attend the Christian En-
deavor Convention at Cleveland; Mr
Albert Cooter also expects to attend
the same convention; this is purely a
coincidence, however, but the NEW
ERA is willing to supply wedding in-
vitations if necessary. The Doherty
Organ Factory was closed down for a
couple of days this week owing to a
break'in some part of the machinery.
Mr James Forbes, of Baltimore, and
sister, of Toronto, were the guests of
Mrs Thos. Cooper last week. The new
one third mill track on the Recreation
Park is now nearly completed,and will
be one of the best bicycle tracks in the
county; the club intend to hold a big
meeting sometime in July. Messrs
Hovey and Emerson will leave this
evening for Sarnia; they intend to
wheel all the way. Mr Will Kelly, of
Blyth, took a tumble while coming
down the hill at Londesboro a week
ago, and is still confined to his bed.—
We leant] that Mr McGarva was lately
the purchaser of one of Miss Mount -
castle's prize pictures. Mr W. W.
Kew, of the G,/T. R. freight office,
Niagara Falls, and formerly of Clinton,
was married on Wednesday, to Miss
Libbie Chrysler. Strawberries five
inches in circumference are the pro-
duce of Mr John Kilty. We ac-
knowledge the receipt of baskets of
fine Strawberries from Mr P. Straith,
tswn, mid Mr H. Elford, Holmesville.
Mr J. W. Irwin returned from his
World's Fair trip, on Wednesday,
having had a splendid time, and feeling
amply repaid. Don't forget the stick
fair on the 541 of July next. Mr Shil-
ton drove to Walkerton, and Mrs
Shilton left by train on Wednesday;
before leaving town Mr Shiltoe seCur-
od-a new phaeton from Mr F.Rumball.
The failure of the hay crop in England
is a good thing for those who have old
hay in this country; it is said Mr W.
Cudmore, of Kippen, is $1000 richer
than he was a couple of weeks ago, by
the rise. About 75 tickets were sold at
Goderich, on Tuesday, for the excur-
sion to the Model farm, and 50 at Clir-
ton; there were about 250 altogether,
from points north. Mr McKinney and
wife, of Owen Sound, nephew of Mr
F.;Rumball, were here on their wed-
ding tour on Monday. West Huron
License Commissioners met here on
Wednesday. and transferred the licen-
ses of the British Exchange hotel and
Brewery, Goderich. Miss Orpha Mil-
ler, of Listowel, is home for her holi-
days. Mr Moore, of Kincardine, (an
old resident of this section) was visit-
ing relatives here this week., Mr John
Junor, who hos been failing for some
time, is very low, a fact his many
friends will deeply" regret to hear; then e
is no hope whatever of his recovery.
At the last meeting of the Teni erance
Lodge, a very pretty tableau "Beware"
was given by several of the rriemlters.
Those wishing a,'treat should not fail to
attend the festival at Mr. W. Weir's,
