It will be held in Goderich on Oct. 3-4, the first session to commence at 7.39 p.m. 5TH CLASS LIN PUBLIC SCHOOL —The statement in this weeks News -Record that the Collegiate Institute Board had expressed itself as opposed to the intro- Suctrotl of 5th Class work in the Public chool, is incorrect, the fact being that 'the Board has taken no action in the matter. QUIET AND ORDERLY.—Chief Win- dred, of Sarnia, remai ked last week that Clinton was a most quiet and 'orderly town, as he had seen no "drunks" or "disorderlies" since he was in town. He said further,• that it was a very rare thing when there was not at least one or two prisoners be- fore the P. M. every morning in Sarnia. PLENTY OF HAY.—The scare on the scarcity of hay is said by those suppos- ed to be posted to be very much exag- gerated and that the price will be lower than is, anticipated. The lower pro- vinces are not only cutting a large crop this season, but also nave thou- sands of tons of last year's hay on hand. PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL.—W. Jackson reports the following travellers:—J. R. Holmes, H. Catling and J. Cantelon for Manitoba on Tuesday's excursion; Miss Mary Ross for Fargo, Dak.; J. C. Gilroy for Montreal: C. C. Rance, King- ston; Mrs Jas. McM' th, Kingston; . Nesbit, per steamer Cambria, to the Soo. LAifoR DAY.—Business generally was suspended on Monday, although the important industries such as tie Organ Factory, Fair's Mill, Foundry, etc. found it necessary to run as usual. The Collegiate gave instruction for half the day, observing the afternoon as a holiday. The band came out in the afternoon and gave several popular and well executed selections. TRAVELLERS.—Mrs Goodfellow who has been visitng her parents dnring summer months, returned on Friday to her home in Lowell, Mass., going via C. P.R. to. Montreal and Boston and Main route to Lowell.—Mrs Bert. Potts ac- companied Mrs Fred. Potts c f Detroit to the latter'shome, going by steamer Carmona. They were ticketed by C.P. R. Agent, A. T. Cooper. PAINFUy. ACCIDENT.—One day Last 'week the three year old son of Mr Bacon, Toronto, (son-in-law of Mr A. Dorrell) met with an exceedingly pain- ful accident. The child pulled a frying - pan off the stove, the hot contents thereof pouring over his breast and limbs, scalding him so severely that in removing his clothes, the skin came off. For a time the little fellow's life was in danger, but he is now nearly well again. THE HURON CENTRAL.—Though much interest is not taker, in exhibit- ions until'after the Toronto Industrial and Western fairs, still the secretary of the Huron Central, Mr. Wm. Coats. reports a steady inquiry for prize lists and the prospects are that the coming exhibition will be one of the most suc- cessful held. Exhibitors should com- mence early to select their 'exhibits and by making their entries early both they and the secretary will be saved unneessary t rouble. NEWSPAPER NOTES.—The Wroxeter Advocate has ceased to exist, and the plant has been moved to Fordwich; the proprietor might have known he could not spread himself as he tried at a place like Wroxeter.—We are surprised at the number of pavers accenting "Nursery ads" on the base's offered. The Blyth Standard has extended its borders very materially. Mr Simons, of Wingharn, intends to start a paper at Wroxeter.

Campbell, Duff, Hartley, Hogan, Jeckell, Russell, Smith, Whidden, Dunlip. A CORRECTION.—THE EXPOSITOR SAYS:—A paragraph appeared in our Huron notes last week to the , effect that Hodgens Brothers, of Clinton had compromised with their creditors for 60 cents on the $, This was on error. The firm writing to us says. As we have only been in business one week, this is obviously a mistake, What we have done is; Purchased the stock of the estate of John Hodgens, at 60 cents on the $. This will he seen is quite a different thing, and we are sorry the mistake occurred. The Messrs Hodgens Bros. are most estim- able young men, who have a thorough business training, and with the enter - prizing spirit and close attention to business, which has hitherto been characteristic with there, there is hot mach danger of any such fate overtak- ing theirs. . • THE CLINTON NEW ERA HOWLING.—A very enjoyable game I vis hos itable manner.
