Smithson has bought the house.and let on Ontario street owned by Mrs. Shiip- Iey.. He will build a workshop on the premises. FALL WHEAT.—Probably one of the finest looking fields of fall wheat in the county is the one on the Hayfield Road, owned by Mr. Wm. Weir. Generally speaking there is not much apparent cause for complaint. The warm rain of Saturday has produced rapid vegetation. THE BAND.—The Town Band gave an open air concert last Friday evening and the crowds of people that thronged the streets demonstrated clearly the necessity of music of this class. A good band is one of the very best advertisements any town can have. DUST ! DUST ! ! DUST I I ! —For several days and evenings up to Saturday the dust flying through the streets caused pedestrians to exclaim as above. This brings to mind that the whole people should be willing to have the streets watered and paid for out of the general taxes of the town. The general public receive as great benefit as do the busi- ness men. _ There was ample proof last week, and the whole town should pay for what benefits the masses. LARGE HEN'S EGG.—Mr. David Lansing, of the Base Line, near Auburn, Iast Saturday presented THE NEWS -RECORD with an ordinary hen's egg from his hennery. It measures 6t inches by 7a inches and weighs 3 ounces. Mr. Lansing informed us that many of the eggs from his farm are as large. They come just in time to be in harmony with the revised tariff, so large and full of solid meat that even our Southern neighbors should even ad- mire the independent Canadian hen. Mr. Lansing's hens are of the ordinary Canadian breed. REMOVALy;FAN OLD RESIDENT.—Dr. Appleton and family last week remov- ed to London, where they will in future reside. The doctor is a pioneer Huron pactitioner and has resided in Clinton for a great many years. A short time since he was taken seriously ill and has not been able to visit his patients. His son is in the Molsons Bank at London and hence the remov- al. We regret the removal of such old and respected residents, but wish for the restoration of the doctor's health and future prosperity of the family. LAW COSTS MONEY.—Here is an item for those who are fond of going to law to settle their grievances. About two years ago three persons in Camp- hellville became involved in a suit over an account of $73.00. They were de- termined to fight and they fought., and they paid for it like the boy who bought the whistle. We are reliably informed that the law costs of one amounts to $620, another has forked over $200, while the ,third has benefit- ted the lawyers to the tune of $180. One thousand dollars to recover seven- ty-three. BICYCLE MEETING. — The annual meeting of the Clinton Bicycle Club was held on Friday evening, 27th ult., in the Council Chamber. The treasur- er's report was read and adopted. The election of officers for the following year resulted as follows :—President, Cat. H. B. Combe ; Vice -Pres., Mr. McLean ; Sec.-Treas., Mr. Geo. Emmer- son ; Captain, Mr. W. Doherty, jr. Committee—S. Smith, A, Cooper and ' ► Mr. Flemming. It was decided to grade the track again this year and C put it in thorough good shape. ' /arrangements were made for a series of club meets. The Club commences the season with a valuable asset in the 'track. While they spent over $100 the small deficit should be easily wiped out. The Club should receive as lib- eraI assistance as possible from our people. Club runs will take place weekly and monthly meetings will be held, .?Vo Local fleai4r eau Compete With tis in _variety or price. Our new designs and colorings are hand- somer this year than ever before. We have not depended . altogether on our own tastes r' in the ma`1ter of purchases APER but were assisted in our selection by MR. JOSEPH COPP, (long acknowledged as an authority in matters appertaining to the paper trade), and whose services we thankfully acknowledge. We have just received in stock two large shipments of BABY CARRIAGES & WINDOW SHADES And Invite Inspection, • o RANCE & SPALDING, ON THE Roan.—Mr. W. Smithson last week returned from a trip to Stratford and intermediate points. During the past two weeks he has sold nearly one hundred step -ladders. He says he never seen fall wheat looking better or more promising. CANTELON BROS. last week handled and shipped on an average 1,000 dozen eggs a day. The firm also shipped a large quantity of butter and are now advertising •for 5,000 bushels of pota- toes. MEW CREASE.—The Cricket Club will have their new crease completed in Recreation'. Park this week. It will be large enough 'for tennis. Mr. Mc- Quaig has the contract and B. Webb is laying the sod. JONATHAN MILLER, of the Albion, Goderich, was in town last Monday. When interrogated as to • the probable cause of his mission he replied that. his license expired on that date. Renewal and new licenses were issued yester- day. ST. JOSEPH'S CONCERT last Wednes- day evening was a success. Rev. Fr. Kealy delivered a lecture on Pope Leo XIII and his public life. The rev. gentleman has a good flow of choice language and excellent delivery. Lo- cal talent and several members of the Dublin church choir furnished the musical programme. Rev. Fr. West, of Goderich, occupied the chair. MARRIED.—Last Wednesday Rev. Mr. Stewart performed the ceremony that caused the noble hearts Mr. B. Tomlinson and Miss Wightman to beat as one. Both are highly respected young people and have the hearty con- gratulations of a large circle of acquaint- ances. Mr. and Mrs. Tomlinson have taken up their residence on Rattenhury street in the house lately occupied by Mr. John T. Harland. JOINED THE SILENT.—Robert A. Autterson, who had been ailing for some time, died last Wednesday, aged 35 years. The funeral took place on Friday to Clinton cemetery. He leaves a wife and four children.—We regret to learn of the death of the wife of Robert B. Carter at Cleveland, former- ly of this section. Her age was but 32 years and a few months. The remains were conveyed to Clinton cemetery. The infant has since died. Mr. Carter and two children will likely , remain here. AROUND AGAIN.—Mr. Peter Canto - Ion, of Porter's Hill, is now able to move about on crutches and called on THE NEWS-REcoRD last Wednesday. Our readers will remember a few weeks ago one of his cows fell or rolled on Mr. Cantelon's leg. No bones were broken, but the injury was worse than if there had been. The knee and ankle were severely affected, but the plaster Maris has been removed and the limb is coming to its former state. We hope to see Mr. Cantelon as sound as ever in a short time. THE WORTHY DEPARTED. --At. the morning service in Willis church on Sunday morning week, Rev. Mr. Stew- art prefaced his discourse with a few remarks respecting the late Thos. Fair and his connection with the congregor tion. He stated in commencing that it was not his custom to preach funeral sermons, and he did not intend to de- part from the custom, but owing to the official position held by the deceas- ed he thought it right to make a brief reference td` him. Mr. Fair united with the congregation on the 15th of January, 1863, and was ordained to the eldership in November, 1883. He would make reference to his life and character ; his life was before us, to his own master he standeth or falleth, but he could not refrain from remarking upon the faithfulness with which he had discharged his duties in connection with the congregation and his devotion and loyalty to its interests. He felt that in the removal of Mr. Fair he had lost one of his best friends. The ser- mon was based upon the twelfth verse of the thirty-ninth Psalm—"I was a stranger with thee, and a sojourner." There were in these words presented to ns a dark picture and a bright one. The dark picture consisted of the fact of the shortness, uncertainty and the unsatisfactory character of the present life we are passing through, we are away from our true home, nothing that earth can give can satisfy the longings which heavennd God alone can meet. The bright picture was presented in the short but import- ant phrase "with thee." The Chris- tian here is the guest of God under his eare and protection, and to complete the glorious coloring of the picture the Christian has the assurance that "God with us" on earth is to ripen into "with God in heaven."—Com.

It is the supplying of this that has made Priestley's Dress Fabrics So highly esteemed the world over. For beauty, tex• ture and enduring quality they are unequalled. • Manufactured as they are, in pure wool and in silk and wool interwoven, these goods have a soft richness that is a per feet delight to a lady of taste. A dress of Priestley's fabrics retains its style and beauty as long as there is any of • it left, hence they are the most economical to buy. Priestley's goods are mostly in Black, and Black and White, and you can be sure you are getting the genuine by see, ing that they are rolled on a varnished board with the words "Priestley's trade mark" stamped across the end ; unless they are so rolled they are not Priestley's. You can get Priestley's Dress Fabrics from us. We are sole agents for Clinton, and have a fine range for you to select from. Something New Stewart's Duplex Safety Pins We have just received from the markers in New York a ship- ment of these pins. They are a great improvement er the ordinary safety pin, lock as freely in the dark r,in the light, and from either side, cannot miss fastening by passing through, the point is completely hidden and pro- tected when fastened, and also have the additional ad- vantage of the "guard attachment" dyer the coil, so that the fabric cannot catch therein, as is so often t case. with the common safety pin. We have tbern in three sizes, small, medium and large. They cost a cent or two .1 a dozen more than the common kinds, but then there far better. Est. I Hodgen, CLINTON.
