The Citizens Band.
ELECTION QF OFFICERS, AND FIRST
ANNUAL DINNER.
For many years the lively and pros-
perous town of Clinton lacked what
might properly he termed a Citizens
Band—a band that the ratepayers of
the town had a financial interest in.
Bands as a rule are very difficult or-
ganizations to keep up. The constant
whirl of business and the removal of
young mechanics and musicians is al-
ways a draba upon the reserve talent,
The Council of last year seemed to un-
derstand this and made a annual
grant of $100 to the Band on well de-
fined conditions. The result was the
securing of a competent leader and the
organization of a first-class band.
'Open air concerts were given weekly
throughout the sutneuer season and it
is needless to say that these were greatly
appreciated by the citizens of Clinton.
1n fact people generally regretted
when the cold weather caused them to
cease. Up to the present time the
Vitizene Band bas preyed an unquali-
fied Stare:us, and the leader, rbernbers,
Couraetisand people are,to be congra•
tulated. It was a short time since de-
cided to hold an arinnal dinner at tire
same time as the annual meeting and
the inaugural took place last Thursday
evening. The following officers were
elected
0. D. McTaggart, Hon. Pres.
J. T. Emmerton, President.
A. Stoneham, Vice -Pres.
Gr. McRae, Treasurer.
Wna. Holloway, Secretary.
A.J. Holloway, B. Kerr, J. McRae,
Committee.'
J. T. Shunk, Conductor.
After the business meeting the mem-
bers adjourned to the splendid re-
modeled and refitted Hotel Clarendon,
where;an open air conceit was given
:from the balcony. A further adjourn-
ment, along with a good number of
their friends, was made to the large,
'cheery and inviting dining room of the
Clarendon, where all sat down to a most
excellent spread prepared bythe gen-
ial host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. J.
,C. Miller. Upon entering the dining
room the eyes of all were drizzled by
the very artistic and beautiful manner
the tables were decorated and arrang-
ed and laden with all the delicacies of
the season. During dinner' Messrs. H.
Muir, N. Yellowlees and W. Holloway
gave a number of piano selections
-which —added -•much . to the plea-
sure and comfort. After the good
things had been done justice
to the following toasts were pro-
posed and responded to in a manner
which would reflect credit to a J. B.
Gough or a Chas. Kelly. Mr. M. D.
McTaggart distinguished himself as
chairman of the evening by his usual
display of oratory, as Hod also Mr. H.
B. Merit in the vice chair. The first
toast of the evening was
' "The Queen and Royal Family," re-
sponded to by all singing "Rule Brit-
tania," and a song and chorus by Mr.
W. Harland.
"Canada, Our Country," responded
to by Mr. W. E. Rand; song, W.
Spaulding.

"The Host," by Mr. J. C. Miller.
Messrs. T. H. Marks, Kellam and
Wilson, of the Marks Bros. Comedy
Co. added much to the pleasure of the
evening's entertainment by giving a
number of their choice selections.
At the close of the programme ex -
councillor Armstrong moved a very
hearty vote of thanks to the officers
and members of the hand. He said
he considered much credit due them
for their endeavors to make our hand
second to none in this part of the
country as the annual report clearly
showed it to be. Dr. Turnbull took
peat pleasure in seconding the motion,
which was carried unanimously.
The hour being late all joined in
singing Auld Lang Syne and departed
to tkeir respective homes, feeling they
had enjoyed a pleasant and profitable
evening and wishing the band conduit -
ed prosperity and every success.

services.
HARD PRESSED TO ACCOUNT FOR
EVIDENT DEFEAT. —Yeste rd a y our es-
teemed friends, the Grits, were gather-
ed in clusters here and there discussing
the situation in West Huron. Our
Opposition friends seemed to he all
united that the coming election in
this Riding—because the voters' lists
were not in the hands of the
printer—would take place on the
1801 lists. The conclusion is of
course ridiculous in the extreme,
but it might be just as well to concede
(Meat for our friends in this way as
any other, because those who are post-
ed know that the lists of 1895 are even
more favorable to the Consevatives
than those of 1891, and the 1895 lists
will be in readiness for the coming con-
test. Our friends must be hard press-
ed to account for their evident defeat.

Many of our exchanges are warning
their readers against the use of private
post -card. If they would take the
trouble to interview their respective
postmasters concerning the matter
they would have no doubt as to the
correctness of its use. It was a new
regulation adopted Jan. 1st, 1895, and
any person is at liberty to user their
own private card if they comply with
the regulations which are as follows :
The card must he composed of ordinary
card hoard not thicker than the ma-
terial used for the official post card,
must correspound as nearly as possible,
with the size of the,ordinary Canadian
post card now in use. The ininimuni
size must not be less than 34 inches by
44 inches.

adjacent to the church shed. Ahout

gone into the church the wind, which
