We are pleased to say he has entirely recovered. The gentleman was also visiting friends in Clinton last Sunday. RIDING PARTIES. -01 late years the old-time recreation of horse -back riding has not met with much favor locally, but a revival of the pastime has set in. The other evening a party of four—two ladies and two gentlemen—proceeded down the London Road, bat on the re- turn the horses refused to carry the human freight and all had to dismount and lead the horses hack to tOWO. THE NEWS -RECORD and the many friends of the publisher of the Wingham Advance Will he glad to learn that he is on a fair way to recovery. On Friday week it appeared as though amputa- tion of the right foot was the only thing that could save his life, but through skilled medical aid the foot was somewhat improved the next, day. Blood poisoning was the cause of the trouble. It will be some time yet, however, before he will be able to move around very freely. DISTINGUISHED VISITOR.—We had a very pleasant call last Wednesday from H. P. Moore, Esq., editor of the Acton Free Press. The gentleman had been attending the Methodist Confer- ence at Goderich. Mr. Moore is a practical printer and newspaper Irian .of the first order with a Dominion reputation. About a year and a half since he adopted the pay -in -advance system and declares that the result has been mostsatisfactory. While in town Mr. Moore was the guest of Mayor Holmes.

A.—The initials may have two applications, but they refer to a citizen in town who the other day had an addition to his household. In elec- tion times Young Men's Conservative Associations are very desirable. PROGRESSING.—The continued click of the hammer and a,ncle an army of workmen at Mason's new hotel, under the direction of S. S. Cooper, bids fair to see the premises open for business within a few weeks. TEmPErtaNcE-Clinton Star Lodge 378. I. 0. G. T., reports an increase in membership and gives every substan- tial indication of prosperity. Meeting night every 'Friday in the Oddfellows hall. Visitors and new members will always receive a warm welcome. AN HOSPITAL WOULD Db.—Many of our 'people are of the opinion that the Stavely Estate held by the Ontario Government should go toward the erection of an hospital similar to that in Stratford, London, Owen Sound and other places. Mn.• SLIER -BROOK, of the G. T. R. offices, London, left Clinton last Mon- day morning at -8.10 on his wheel for the Forest city and reached there at 11 o'clock. The distance is fifty miles and there was a five minute stop at Exeter and Lucan," so that the time was two hours and forty minutes. The wheel he rode is an English Quadrant. This is a record breaker. LAND SALE.—Mr. Bawden, as we intimated some time since, will sell by auction on the 21st inst. the 21 acres of land pnrchased from Mr. Hale, adjoin- ing the Rattenbnry estate. It will be offered as a, whole or in large or small parcels to sui t purchase rs. The property is a desirable one and should find a ready sale. SHIPPING.—Mr. James Fair sold his •eutire lot of fat winter cattle to Mr. S. Smith recently, and 46 of the 66 were shipped last Saturday. Of the 46, 20 were Manitoba steel s and 26 of the lighter class. In the Manitoba lot there were four pairs 3;350 pounds per pair. They averaged 1,575. pounds each, while the 26 head of home stock averaged 1,415 pouuds each. The re- maining 20 head will be shipped to -day. The whole lot are for export trade and the price is said to be above the aver- age ruling. DEATH. -4t is with extreme regret, that we announce the death of ivlary Jane, wife of Mr. H. Stevens, at the age of 51 years. The lady passed to her reward on Saturday and the funer- al took place to Clinton cemetery on Monday afternoon. Mrs. Stevens had 'been quite ill for a year or more and bore her suffering with Christian re- signation. She was kind-hearted and generous to a fault ; respected by all who knew her. She was a sister to Mrs. Tufts, of Belgrave. Mr. Stevens and the relatives of deceased will have the sympathy of a very large circle of friends.

Snamox.—Last Sunday the members of Kearns and Varna Tents attended Turner's church, Tuckersmith, in a body. Rev. Mr. Smyth preached an eloquent and prac- tical sermon, taking for his text the 17th and 18th chapters of Proverbs, 17th and 24thNerses respectively. The sub- ject was true friendship and the rev. gentleman brought out many striking and happy conclusions in favor of the society. We regret that space will not permit even a condensed report. At the close the Sir Knights marched in single file around the grave of the late Sir Knight Francis Layton, Past Com- mander Kearns placing on it a beautiful wreath of natural flowers. The scene indeed was impressive, and a just reflex of the words the divine had uttered from the pulpit. • , SPORT/NG GOODS, BICYCLES —,Humber, Raleigh, Budge, BASE BALLS FOOT BALLS CROQUET CRICKET BOXING GLOVES AIR GUNS ORANGE.—South Huron sem i -an n meeting in Clinton last Friday was one of the most largely attended and interesting for many years. Matters pertinent to the well-being of the Order were thoroughly and harmon- iously discussed. The resolution car- ried at the annual meeting deciding to hold the 12th July celebration at Park- hill was allowed to stand without a motion to rescind it. The brethren there are making extensive prepara- tions. The best possible railway arrangements will he completed at once and posters issued. Among the speakers who will deliver addresses are Bro. J. S. Larke, the gentleman who made such a forcible reply to Chicago's Mayor last fall, Rev. W. McDonagh, and. Rev. J. C. Madill. The session occupied six hours time and the various reports were of a most encouraging nature. In the meantime get ready for Pkrkhill. BASE BALL.—There was a very in- teresting base ball match en Recr ea - Con Park last Thursday afternoon. Clinton has not a full-fledged club, although Messrs. Spalding, McKinnon, Dr. Shaw, W. Harland, Martin McMachie, Alf. Sermon, Hoover, and Agnew, mustered courage to combat against the famous Irish Nine from Lucan. The breeze was . blowing east and this caused the Lucan Umpire to not "catch on" to several in- fringements of the rules and fords by various Lucan batters. In fact some contend that the Umpire's weather - •eye was at fault or his judgment warp- ed. However, the Lucan team had to work hard to keep in the ascendant. At, the conclusion the score stood 13 to Win favor of the Irish Nine. TENNIS LACROSSE etc,. HAMMOCKS, TENTS, FLAK • "Ask for our Sporting Goods annual."
