PRESS MATTEtts.-A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Press As- sociation (of which R. Holmes is a member)was held at the Rossin House, Toronto, last week, to arrange for the annual meeting and transaction of other business. Mr Fairburn, who for years published the Teeswater News- boy, but who.has been running a job office in Buffalo for the past three years, disd suddenly last week. Mr W. R. Davis, of the Mitchell Advocate, who has also conducted an extensive auctioneer's business, announces that owing to the death of his brother,he will devote his attention to the paper ex- clusively. The Stratford Herald this week came out greatly enlarged, and promises to keep up to its present size; the Herald is the best Conserva- tive paper in Western Ontario, with a good faculty for news, and enjoys a circulation equalled by few weekly papers.

He was playing with a tin pea- shdoter, havingit in his mouth, and ac- cideitly falling forward, the tin was driven forcibly into his throat. It was necessary to sew the wound up. CHOSEN FRIENDS. --- The order of Chosen Friends, organized here some two years ago, appears to be growing in favor and (popularity, as additions to its membership are constantly being made. It is a mutual endowment so- ciety,, and is regarded as a cheap me- thod of carrying life insurance. Nox IMPROVING. -The friends of Mr Rabt..Brown (who lately had his foot amputated) are exceedingly anxious about him, as the last word received from him conveyed the unpleasant inthtiation that blood poisoning had set in and it would be necessary to make another amputation above the knee. REGISTRATION. - Major Hamilton, deputy -registrar general of Ontario. was in town last week, he being on a tour of inspection through the 'lsro- vince. It is his duty to look atter the registration of births, m.„triages and deaths, and although the law relating thereto Aa- .fairly well observed, Mr yamiTton expressed the opinion that ,.. it will be necessary to resort to vigor - oils measures to secure complete com- pliance with the law. TAKEN To LONDON. -Mr John Hunt- ' er, of the London road, who recently caused his friends so much anxiety by leaving home, was taken to London .Asylum on Friday last. He seemed perfectly rational on his way down, and when taken to the building, real- ized were he was, and remarked "Sure- ly I am not so bad as to necessitate being here.” He keenly realized his r q' position, but did not make the slight - 1 est resistance. • rtr �rvi'J, WORKING} ,:ALONG. -A new firm in Toronto that seems to be laying the basis of a . that of good business in stationer's supplies, su le isCooper & Co. -the members of it being Messrs John A. and Charlie Cooper, of town. The busi- ness is managed chiefly by the latter named, the other member of the firm being also engaged in journalism, and although only established for a short time, t ey have found it necessary to y rt move into more commodious premises on Front Street. HORSE AND BUGGY STOLEN. -On c"ski r. Saturday last a man giving the name Py of Beaton, and representingthat he was a canvasser for the Mai, hired a horse and buggy at Beatty's livery, Wingham, promising to return the same evening. He faked to do so, and al was traced to Clinton, where he spent most of Sunday,leavinghere ostensibly for Seaforth. He drove to Stratford, and left the outfit at Forbes' livery .v, a there, where it was secured and brought to Clinton. The fellow escaped. PROPERTY CHANGE. -The house and t�q�r5 a lot, on VictoriaSt., owned by Mrs Jno. Williams, has been sold to Mr Wm. Webb for the sum of $600. We believe it is the intention of Mrs Williams to the Rev. A H. Drumm, and hide wofAvont nher . She has been a highly esteemed resident of Clinton for about thirty or thirty-five years, and it is a severe wrench to ten- der associations and memdries to sever them, but she carries with her the good will and esteem of all who have known her so long. ee GOOD TESTIMONAL. - The British American, of Chicago, has the follow- ing to sayfor a well-known Clintonian, nephew of Mr W. Grigg, of town: - "Mr Samuel Grigg, who has had the management of the Hotel Manitoba during the World's Fair, left for his old home; London, Ont., this week. Among all the hotel men in Chicago ,. • during the Exposition, none was so popular as the genial manager of the Manitoba. Mr Grigg made many friends among the business men of Chicago, and should he at any time conclude to settle in this city, his chances of success seem to be assured, for he is one of the most upright men we have come in contact with in a business way. IMPROVEMENTS. -We are pleased to notice so large a number of our citizens have this year been improving their properties, and considerable enterprise is shown in trying to excel. Mr Thos. Jackson,: jr, and Mr David Cantelon imported red pressed brick, which gives their residences a very neat appear- ance, the work being done by first-class mechanics. We notice that Mr Searle has also been trying his hand in a small way, by covering his baker's oven With metallic bricks, and has made a very neat job of it. Frame dwellings covered in this way would present a handsome appearance. A number of others have made additions to their dwellings and premises, and others are still making improvements. mite a number of buildings have been erected on the Bawden annex; Mr Jas. Steep has put up large buildings there. Dining the summer a good number took doivtl their fences, and made boulevards in front of their places. 1VItyl.Stevens ie putting,an addition :,are of being present joined in honor- ing the genial hosts, and wishing them and their interesting family long life and prosperity, no matter where their lot may be cast." NOTES. -Mr John Bailey, near the cemetery, has been going around on crutches lately, the result of a severely sprained ankle. Mrs Tufts, of Bel grave, was in town on Saturday, hav- ing recently returned from Chicago; she was much pleased at the financial result of her venture there. We are pleased to see Mr John Ransford out again after an illness that has not left him as strong and vigorous as is his usual wont. Mr W. P. Spalding, of Rance & Spalding, was in Toronto last week. • Mr H. S. Holmes, agent of the G. T. R., .Acton, left last week on his vacation; he visited friends at Gode- rich and is on a trip to Montreal this week; Harry is . a graduate ,of Clinton station. Mrs R. Jennings, of Gode- rich township, left on Saturday on a visit to her daughter, Mrs Baer, of Woodstock. Conductor W. R. Klo- phell, of Toronto, was a visitor in town for a couple of days last week. Mrs R. G. Emerson, of Winnipeg, leaves for home in a few days. The regular meet- ing of the Home Circle takes place on Tuesday evening next. On Sunday evening several youths broke into Boyd's bakery, and made themselves free with refreshments; they were fol- lowed to Seaforth, and a settlement effected, Mr Boyd not .wishing to pro- secute. We understand that the Misses Cole, who some time ago moved from town to Tennessee, purpose re- turning, as the south is not as conduc- ive to health as this section. Mr Ink- erman Cantelon, who has been in the northwest for some time, is home on a visit. Mr Stinson, of town, has re- ceived word that his daughter has al - moat entirely recovered, and may be brought home at any time. Mr A. T. Cooper has been at Toronto on busi- ness for several days. The Ancient Order of Foresters are looking after Mr T. Tipling, who was so badly hurt lately -not the Sons of England, as erroneously stated last week. The posi- tion of Liberal Organizer for the pro- vince has been filled by the appoint- ment of Mr Smith, of the Toronto Mail; for this position the names of J. A.Morton, of Wingham, and W.Coats, Clinton, were at one time mentioned, either of whom would have made ex- cellent organizers, but the latter de- clined to consider the matter, as it would necessitate his removal from town. Mr McVittie, who is employed with Mr S. S. Cooper, got his hand severely cut on Tuesday. The condi- tion of Mr John Steep was so serious this week that the members of his family were telegraphed for, hut he has taken a slight turn for the better, al- though we are exceedingly sorry to say there is no hope of his ult.iinate recovery. Mrs Harry Perdue, of Gode- rich township, who died this week, was a sister of Mr Wm. Young, of town. Mr John G. Crich, formerly a resident of town, but more recently of Min- neapolis, is visiting friends here. Mr T. C. Bruce spent Sunday at the home of his father in Alvinston. Mr John Cook, teamster, is confined to his home h illness. Mrs May is at the home of her sister, Mrs Crich, and is .unable to leave her room. Mr John Gorrell (eldest son of Mr A. Gorrell) is quite ill at Carberry, Man., and unable to get around. Mr Flem- ing, of Stayner, has taken a position as assistant with T. C. Bruce, dentist. Mr John Little, of the gravel road, Hullett, has rented his farm to Mr John Crawford, for a term of five years at $150 a year, and intends mov- inginto Clinton to reside. In the fire at Regina, on Tuesday, the stock of Charlie Howson (son of Mr Jan: es Howson) was damaged, though not destroyed. Mr Thos. Fair is at De- troit, consulting a specialist; we are glad to know that Mr Fair is recover- ing, even though slowly. Miss Mc- Eachren, of the Dry Goods Palace,,was called home to Stayner, on Saturday, owing to the illness of her mother, who has since died. J. H. McConnell, of Windsor, is announced to give (a lecture hevee next Tuesday, on "Pprd- Alex, in olitics.% Mr ex, Cion e spent, Sunday in (loderich,withafriendt wen n1 y yet be wore than a sister to. ,tf i, r t ool's liaise X C?;ellingtOn Street '11114, 1.1-1 CLINTON NEW ERA FOR FURS..
