A SUCCESS.—The temperance mass meeting held at the Ontario Street Church by the Epworth League on Monday evening was rt success, there being a good crowd considering the unfavorable weather.

Small hills will be issued giving full particulars. Make a, note of the celebration in Clinton on the 2lth and come and witness the sports. TIIEY ARE DEADBEATS.—A concert' company travelling under the name of "Wild & Blue" played in Seaforth and Goderich last week. Blue was in Clinton on Thursday arranging, as he claimed, to play here, and acted the part of a deadbeat and swindler. Wild was also here during the same day. The former used TIIE NEws-RECORD telephone for connection with Seaforth and promised to pay the Central office here for the service, but such a small matter escaped his dishonest memory. He also neglected to pay his hotel hill and again demonstrated that he was a deadbeat. The saute cheeky Blue, one would think, was not in any way particular as to the evidence of fraud he left behind, for he also received a collect telegraph message and promised that Wild would pay for it, but both and are yet free a r none of these Bills settled. If the business communities of Seaforth and Gcxlerich were treated sanitarily itis passing strange how Wild & Blue can have their freedom long. Exchanges should pass such vultures around and give them the ran when they strike their town. Just as we go to press we learn that hotel hill of the same troupe at Goderich was left unpaid. DIED IN CLINTON Locxtrr.—George Constable, a former resident of Sea - forth, was given a night's lodging in the Clinton lockup last Wednesday. Froin what we have learned he spent the winter months at (hrstle Dixon in Goderich and was on his return. On recei ving his liberty Thursday morning he did not leave town and was given another night's lodging. On Friday morning about 8 o'clock he was found dead as though he had slept away. Coroner Shaw summoned a jury and held an inquest as required by law, the following gentlemen heing empaneled : -S. J. Andrews, foreman ; John Shep- pard, James Steep, J. Biddlecombe, Wtn. Robb, David Cook, S. G. Plum- mer, Peter Cantelon, Sr., A. M. Todd, James Ross, John Scrnton, John John- eton. Eleven witnesses were examin- ed, the evidence going to show that deceased had been a victim of apoplexy and that he had on Thursday evening taken an unusual quantity of morphine pills, and a nurnher of Sedletz powders during the day. There was nothing to prove where he had secured the morphine. The jury brought in the verdict "That the said George Con- istahle died during the night of May Oth or'morning of Maa 10th from apoplexy and morphine poisoning, said morphine being administered by his own hand." The deceased was aged between 50 and 60 years. The remains were taken charge of by relatives at Seaforth, where the interment took place THE FROST ANA) FRUIT, ---The frost OR Sunday night, it is believed, has destroyed the plums, cherries and grapes. It is rather early to speak of the fate • of apples, but the frost may have affected the early varieties. Gar- den stuff was cut in ail directions.
