It was wit- nessed by a large crowd, and all pro- nounced it a most excellent game. During first half tiuxe no goals were scored, but during the second buffalo Hurons w eresuccessful in winning one goal, and thus came off victord. CHVug#I.—At a business meeting of the .Epworth League, held on Tuesday evening last, the following officers were elected for the ensuing term of six months: W. D. Bright, President; Geo. Black, 1st Vice Pres.: Miss R. Sparling, 2nd Vice Pres.; Mr 0. Gray, Secretary; Miss S. Bargaa, Treasurer; Heads of Committees, MissL. Willison, Devotional; Miss N. Galloway. Look out; Mise E. Smith, Literary; Miss Annie Willie, Flowers; J. H. Pyper, Entertainment. Rn-OPENED.—The lowering of the choir gallery has vastly improved the appearance of the interior of the Meth- odist church. It has taken about six weeks to accomplish the work, which was undertaken by the choir and who bear all the expenses in connection therewith. The church was re -open- ed for public worship on Sunday last, when the pulpit was occupied by Con- ductor Snider, of Toronto, "who de- lighted the large congregations with his discourses. In the morning, in connection with the reading of the scripture lesson, Mr Snider gave a short account of his conversion, which was. indeed full of interest. His sermon was based on the words "Christ is all and in all.” In the even- ing he delivered his railroad sermon. The choir of the church had prepared special singing, which was rendered in a manner pleasing to all present. Con- ductor Snider is a cousin of Mr Wm. Cline, of this town. NOTES. — The Christian Endeavor Society of the Presbyterian church will be represented at the great con- vention in Cleveland, next month, by Miss Sarabel McLean. Mr W. M. Gray, superintendent of the Metho- dist Sunday School, participated in Sunday School anniversary services at Goldstone, near Guelph, on Sunday last. Mr J. Edgar Kent, traveller for the St. Catharines Carpet Co., and formerly salevntan in Mr E. McFagl's dry goods store, called on old friends here last week. A good many people from here were present at the laying ' of the corner stones of the Methodist church at Kinburn of last week. Rev. Rural Dean Hodgins at St. Thomas church, on Sunday. afternoon last, preached a special sermon to the Free Masons. Miss Ethel Galloway left on Wednesday for Toronto; where she will spend a couple 'of months visiting friends. In accordance with the by- law passed hy'the town council a short time a; 4,"the curfew bell is rung at 9 o'clock every evening. The Broadfoot & Box Furniture fac�ory closed down on Tuesday to allow the employees to exercise their franchise in connection with Provincial elections. Mr Frank Scott, who came home a short time ago to attend his mother's funeral, re- turned to Chicago on Monday. Rev. Mr Shaw, of Egmondville, and Rev. MrGuthrie, of the Presbyterian church in town, exchanged pulpits on Sunday morning last. Mrs. Samuel Bennett left last Tuesday on a visit to friends in Manitoba. Clinton and Seaforth.. willplayaaerosse• trrrTitesdaYnett on` the Recreation grounds; a good game is expected. While in town over Sun- day Mr and Mrs Conductor Snider were guests at the Methodist parsonage. Mrs Jas. Beattie was at Plattsyille last week attending the wedding festi- vities in connection with the marriage of her brother, Mr Wm. Buggin, edi- tor of the paper of that place. A un- ion meeting of the Christian Endeavor Societies of town and Egmondville and the Epworth League will bold a union meeting in the Methodist church the second Tuesday in July. There was a good deal of stir in town on election day; both Grits and Tories workea hard in getting out the votes, and we understand very few, if any, votes were left unpolled; in the even- ing the election returns were received at Cardno's hall, which was some times the scene of much excitement; in town the majority for Mr McLean was near- ly what was expected. Mrs W. N. Watson and daughter, Miss Bella, are booked this week by Mr W. Som- erville for a trip to the old country. Londesboro. RUNAWAY.—As John Cartwright, of the 9th con., was taking home plead of shingles on Wednesday morning his teats ran. away. The cause was the tongue dropped out of the neckyoke. There was not much damage done. He lost some shingle nails and the horses were slightly injured. POLITICAL.—Political matters did not warm up in this part of the County during this contest. Both parties felt that it was a foregone conclusion that the old members would be returned and there was only a small vote polled. Mr Milne had a meet- ing called on Monday night but did not appear himself. Thera were three, calling themselves patrons addressed the meeting, in his behalf. One of them is the Patron candidate for South Huron for the Dourinion election but we think he will be a wiser man after Tuesday's returns are showed him, and quietly retire. NOTES.—Church services were not very well attended on Sunday owing to the extreme heat. Miss McLaugh- lin finishes teaching in S. S. No. 8 this week; the pupils of her room presented her with an address and aold ring on Tuesday evening. Mr D. McFayden, a former teacher, is visiting in the sec- tion. Dominion Day is going to he celebrated in a great many ways and places, but we wish to draw especial at- tention to the Strawberry festival and entertainment in the Presbyterian church. The committee are going to do something grand—All friends of Sunday school come and assist. Strawberries are scarce and command a good price. The item about the pie last week was not from the regular Londesboro cor- respondent, as some think, BLYTH NOTES.—The members of the C.E.S. of St. Andrews church spent a pleasant social time at Mr Greg. McGowan's on Wednesday last. A friendly game of base hall was indulged at Auburn on Friday. in which the Blyth team were victorious; score ten to nothing. Rev. Mr Higley attended Synod in Loudon last week. H. A. Scarlett, Owen Sound, a former resident of Blyth, was in town this week. It is said about one hutdl;ed tickets were sold for the N• t. fr Model Vann excursion to Guelph at this station one day last week. Mrs Metcalf returned from a visit with friends in Toronto and Mitchell on Thursday. Ur Piper, who adjusted the affairs of the Jeseop & McElroy stock, left on Saturday for London. A. J. Irwin, L. D., Win_gham was in town on Saturday. Dr., Gibson, of Chapleau, visited friends in town on Saturday. Mr A. Tinlrnay and bride returned home on Tuesday evening. Mrs R. S. Hays is a guest in town this week. Miss Jean Mullen is the guest of Mrs McKinnon. Miss Sperling, of Wingham, is the guest of Miss Young. Rev. Mr McLean returned from his trip to St. John, N. B., on Monday evening, where he attended the Pres- byterian General Assembly. Rev. Mr Stewart, Clinton, filled the pulpit of St. Andrews very acceptably on Sun- day evening in the absence of the pastor. WELDING BELLE.—Quite the most interesting and fashionable event of the season was that which took place in St. Andrews on Wednesday morn- ing, at 11 o'clock, being the marriage of a popular young townsman, Dr. W. J. Milne, to one of Blyth's most esti- mable young ladies, Mies Ella, only daughter of Mr D. B. McKinnon. The large edifice was prettily decorated and filled to the doors with an expect. ant throne,in which the sterner ele- ment was not by any means lacking. The strains of Mendalsson's, cleverly, rendered by Miss Young, heralded the bridal party. The bride entered on her father's armlooking beautiful in white corded silk, en -train, veil of tulle, wreath of natural flowers and carrying a large bunch of roses. The bridesmaids, Miss Curtis and Miss Jean Mullen, Belfast, cousin of the bride, looked charming in dainty cos- tumes of pale blue and pink silk re- spectively, each carrying large bunch- es of roses. MrJ.S.McKinnon, brother of the bride, and Dr. Shaw supported the groom in a manner worthy of the cause. Mr J. A. Taylor, Pickering, and Mt W. W. Sloan, of Toronto, were the efficient ushers, and Rev. A. McLean securely tied the knot. After the ceremony the bridal party repair- ed to the residence, where congratula- tions were tendered and asumptuous lunchet'on provided for the occasion by Boomer, of London, partaken of. The young people were the recipients of many beautiful and costly presents, manifesting in a degree their populari- ly. The honeymoon will be an_ ent in New York, Buffalo and other places, for which they drove to Clinton to catch the afternoon express, leaving amid a shower of rice and good wish- es. Among those from a distance we noticed the following ;—Rev. D. and Mrs McVicar, Dromon; Dr. and Mrs Knetchtel, Ripley; Mrs Milne, Clinton; Miss Jackson, Clinton; Mrs R.S. Hays, Seaforth; Dr. Thompson, Hensall; Mr and Mrs Gracey, Wingham; Dr. Gib- son,. Chapleau, and a number of others. Holmesville. TEDSPLARS. — Next meeting on Monday, July 9, when capitation fee and installation of new members takes place. FUNERAL SERSION.—The memorial service of the late Mise Walters was held Sunday evening, but owing to the disagreeable night there were not many out. The Royal Templars marched in a body from their hall and occupied the centre seats behind the mourners. ELECTION,—There was not the excitement 1132e'ctn-Ttiesday there is at some elections, the Patrons and Conservatives seeming to combine their efforts against .the Reform- ers, but without avail. Their man, Con- nolly, ran well and polled a big vote, but the towns went Garrow. WEDDINGS.—We understand Rev. Mr Fear officiated at two weddings on Wed- nesday, the one being the marriage of Mr Arthur Curry and Mise Lizzie Emerson, of the 7th con.; the other being Mr Addie Cantelon, of the 9th con., and Miss Sarah Beacnm, of the 6th; all of whom are well known. S.S.PImxc.—The Sunday School picnic to Bayfield, Friday last, was fairly attend- ed, and they no doubt would have put in an enjoyable time, had it not commenced to ram about half -past four. Mr. Jowett's rove is a very good; place for picnicking, at as there were two other picnics on the gronnd at the same time, the apace was none too large. NOTES—Mise Emily Potter,of Woodstock, is visiting friends in the village, Misses Annan and Tom, of Dnnbarton, are visit- ing at Mr. A.J.Courtice's. Mr. Enticknap, Drumbo, was in the village last week. The school closes on Friday, for the summer va- cation. Several have started haying; the crop is light; it never seemed to rally from the effects of the frost. Mr. Fear's brother John, of Waterloo, was in the village the other day. We are glad to know that Mrs J. W. Yeo is improving. Exru nsIos. —The farmers' excursion to the Ontario Agricultural College, was very largely attended from the village and vicin- ity, there being 51 tickets sold from this office alone. Among many others who at. tended were J. Trewartha and son, J. Mar- quis, H. Elford and wife, Misses J. and B. Marquis, J. Tebbutt. A few of thorre who went Take a practice of attending it every year, and think they cannot afford to mise it; others who went for the first time, were much pleased with the day's experience and enjoyment. CONDOLENCE,—At a meeting of the Temp. lars on Monday night, it was decided to present the following card of condolence to the family of the late 5liss Walters; who was a member of the council:— To MR, AND MRS. WALTER, AND FAMILY.— Dear friends—We, the members iE Holmesville Council, No. 508 R. T. of T., desire to express to you our heartfelt sympath yregarding your lata bereavement occasioned by the the death of your loving daughter and sister, Lizzie. Being an active memher of our organization, ready and willing at all times to do anything in her power to further the interest of temperance, she will therefore be greatly missed by us. We are also constrained testate that herexemplary life, and her Christian fortitude and patience dur- ing her period of suffering will not fail to pro- duce their wonted effect upon those observing them. Therefore we would say to you, "Weep not as those who have no hope", because at such a time as at, present "outward things and inward thoughts teem with assurance of im- mortals ty." Let us be patient. Those severe afflictions " Not from the ground arise, But oftentimes celestial benedictions, Assume this dark disguise. She is not dead,—the child of our affection,— But gone into that school Whore she no longer needsour poor protection, And Christ, himself doth rule. Not as a child shall we again behold her; For when with raptures wild, In our embrace shall wo again unfold her, She will not bo a child; But a fair maiden in her father's mansion, Clothed with celestial graco; And beautiful with all the sours expansion Shall we behold her fano. Signed on behalf of Holmes- I J.H,LowERY. vino Council, No.608, R.T.of T. 1 W.Moltone TS. ACC1DENT.—The othe evening when Peter McDougal and •' - iving to Holmesville in broke, letting the& ground. The shaf soared the horse, • jumped and tried to get away. Though, neither Peter or his sister could get out, of the cart he manaed to bold the lines with one band while with the other he helped, Miss McDougall to her feet, and then got out, quieted the .horse and righted things. The harness was badly broken, but Pete may thank hie own presence of mind that it was no worse. Hinburn Conrnia BTONB.—The corner stones of the neweethodiet church were Paid last Thurs- day, one by fair R. Stephenson, and the other by Mrs W. Snell, the two oldest mem- bers of the church. Bove, J. Galloway and G. Buggin were present and assisted the pastor, Mr Fair, in the service. The tea - meeting and other exercises realized about WO. Crisp County Clippings Andrew Robinson, of Centralia, has the contract for a big drainage work in the township of Brooke, Mr Thos. Case, of Seaforth, shipped 41 head of prime fat cattle last week. They averaged 1,480 pound per head, and were destined for the old country. Mr Alex. Orr, of Gorrie, formerly of the Park House, Wingham, has pur- chased Messrs Rogers & Co's livery in Wingham. He has leased his hotel in Gorrie. A number of the friends of Rev Geo. Law gathered at the manse at Belgrave, on Tuesday evening of last week, and presented him with a well filled purse, prior to his departure from amongst them. Awell-known resident of East Wa- wanosh last season marked his sheep with his initials P. P., after shearing them. He was joked about the letters standing for "parish priest," so this year he put & after the other two let- ters. The Jennison farm on the Sauble line, near Zurich, was sold by public auction on Friday, and was purchased by Mr Taylor, who owns the adjoining farm, for $1,3.35. The farm contains 62 acres, is a good place and has good buildings on it. Mr 'IV Holmes, . Wingham, while shoeing a horse on Saturday, received a very bad kick on the left leg just above the knee. He thought the leg was broken. It is supposed that some- thing scared the horse, as it is unusu- ally quiet. The leg was very sore and stiff for a few days. Thos. Cudmore, of Usborne, harvest- ed about three acres of rye on the 7th of June. It was a good sample, and the straw averaged 5 feet in length. He now has the ground plowed up and again sowed with roots. This, we think, is the first harvesting of the season in the county. Rev E. V. Smith, of Grey, arrived home from British Columbia, on Tues- day evening. He had a thrilling ex- perience in connection with the recent disastrous floods on the home journey. He purposes attending college at Mon- treal for a couple of terms. Mr Smith has been British Columbia for the past two years, and has done good work. Contractor Oliver, who was awarded the work on the Beauchamp creek and ditch, in Grey, commenced work last week at the outlet. He will employ 40 or 50 hands, and will engage local men as far as possible. The excavating will - be done by teams and scalpers, and eight months is estimated as the neces- sary time for the completion of the contract. The men will be boarded in camp by the contractor. Mr Oliver is a man of wide experience in this kind of work, and has recently returned from British Columbia, where he had large dredging contracts. He counts this job a small one as compared with many he has had. A very peculiar instance in which Rev. E. W. Hunt, of Exeter, is the unfortunate loser of $80, took place on Friday last. It seems the good gentle- man went to Mr Wm. Southcott's tailoring establishment for the purpose of ordering a suit of clothes and while Mr Southcott was taking his measure for the pants he (Mr Hunt) took his wallet containing $80 from his hip pocket and laid it on the desk, and in some way when leaving forgot to take it. On his return to the store about three o'clock in the afternoon he in- quired of Mr Southcott concerning the lost treasurer, but strange to say he knew nothing of it or how it had dis- appear ed. On Friday night much excitement was created in front of Mr Grigg's book store, Exeter, by aferociouscow, which was being delivered to Messrs Ford Bros. by Messrs Etherington, of Us - borne. The animal had been brought thus far with a blindfold but when it was removed she became very um my and doubtless would have done much damage had they not curbed her by getting the rope around a telephone pole. This seemed to enrage her all the more and to guard against acci- dentsthey deemed it necessary to bleed her before proceeding further. After taking a pail and a half of blood from her she became quite calm and could be lead without any trouble, but after walking about a half mile she be- came so weak that she dropped and had to be killed by the roadside. NEWS NOTES Alexander Logan, a well-known citizen of Winnipeg, is dead. A 17 year old youth was drowned while bathing at Galt on Saturday afternoon. A young man named Reuben Tew was killed in a runaway accident at Dundas Saturday night. Over 250 miners lost their lives by an ex- plosion in the Albion mine, York, England, on Saturday.
