He declined' the honor.— Blyth Standard. THE FIFTH CLASS.—At a meeting of the Collegiate Board last week dis- approval was expressed at introducing the. fifth class in the lower school. The move on the part of the Public School Board is airnost certain to prove popular, and the reasons advanced for instituting the same are worthy the. recognition of taxpayers. HARVEST FESTIVAL.—Tho congrega- tion of the church of England, St. John's church, Holmesville, will hold a Harvest Festival, on the premises of Mr. Richardson, on the north of the village on the evening of Tuesday the 10th inst. A good program and enjoy- able time may be looked for. All are invited. SEAFOREH SENIOR CHAMPIONS.—The protested lacrosse match between Sea - forth and Fergus at Brampton on Monday was won by Seaforth 4 to 2. 'The Seaforth team has well earned the senior championship.

All tenders must he in the hands of the Chairman not later than 21st of this month. BASE BALL.—The game of base ball between Clinton and Goderich Junior Clubs could hardly be called a junior game. The Goderich manager tele graphed the captain here of his inabil- ity to get a junior team and wished for the home team to play three seniors to even things up, but unfortunately the message was not received in time to change the team, and Clinton played a strictly junior. However, Goderieh has promised in the return game to play a strictly junior team and our boys expect to 'do better. The score was 8 to 20 in favor of Goderich.—The hall team journeyed to Exeter on La- ber Day, defeating the team of that place by 43 to 22. The boys report having an exjoyable time. The bat- teries atteries aqere for Exeter: Hyndman, Gid - ley, Yeo and Bissett ; Clinton : 'Pen- nington and Johnson. MASONIC.—Clinton Lodge No. 84, A. F. and A.

An energetic committee has the arrang;i ing of a programme in hand. Special' services will be held in the church o theprevious Sunday morning and evening. I Is LABOR DAY A SCHOOL HOLIDAY i —The Brussels Post says :—The Post a few weeks ago; on the testimony presented, said it was not. We have ea our possession a note from F. J. Taylor, Pro. Deputy Minister of Educa- tion, Toronto, under date of Aug. 22nd, which says "Labor Day is a statutory holiday." As all such days are suppos- ed to include schools and colleges, next Monday will be a school holiday and will no doubt be observed as such by the teachers and pupils. PEOPLE WHO TRAVEL. --W. Jackson reports the following travellers :—J. R. Holmes, H. Catling and J. Cantelon for Manitoba on yesterday's excursion ; Miss Mary Ross for Fargo, Dak. ; Ed. Wise and family for Soo per steamer ”Cambria" from Goderich • J. C. Gilroy for Montreal.; Rufus Andrews for Ottawa ; C. C. Rance, Kinston ; Mrs. Yes. McMath, Kingston. There was 70 passengers for Detroit on the excursion last Saturday. AT HALIFAX.—The Peterboro Review gives Bro. C. W. Sawers views on Max. The following should be read in conjunction with what appears in letter four in this issue :—Five British and one French man-of-war were in the harbor, and three regi- ments of soldiers in the city. The British flagship "Crescent," built two years ago, was seen by many. Sixteen , Iittle midshipmen were on board ; some of them did not look to be more than twelve, although the entering age is fifteen. It was a most:interesting sight to see the dapper little officers in full uniform, The ship was seen from bow to stern, and to the lower deck where the torpedoes are. They are fired from under water, a port hole opening and closing automatically, and the enemy knows nothing of their ex- istence until they actually strike their vessel. The "Crescent" was beautiful- lZ lean and fully equipped with guns rind" ,soIdiers for active service. The place seemed alive with red coats and bine jackets—numbering about 700. When Mr. Sawers went through, the men were at their "meas," and a good English dinner they were having, and were enjoying it in jolly good humor. NEWSPAPER DUNS.—There can he no 'more unfortunate state of affairs imaginable than the necessity which exists for newspaper duns. The editor oft the Mount Forest Representative flees' the issue fairly and squarely, bitting from the shoulder in the follow- ing emphatic • manner: "We must have money, and in order to get it without stealing, begging or bor- rowing, we intend to collect what is owing us. We understand perfect- Iy that money is scarce ; no •one knows Whetter than we, but we have come to the conclusion that it will be easier for the 50 or 100 subscribers in arrears to borrow $2 or $3 each (if they have not that mush on hand) than for us to have to borrow $200 or $300 (at interest) with which to meet payments maturing." The Ingersoll Chronicle is also after delinquent subscribers with a sharp reprimand, which it cencludes thus : "Get right down into your wallets as soon as you read this and send us the cash in advance to tat Jan., 1806. We tiave a host of friends who don't forget us when their subscriptions expire, and promptly renew in advance. Let us count you among them, and our grad - :tilde will be undbounded, unfathom- able and everlasting," Delinquent sub- scribers to THE NEWS -RECORD will please make the application that these extracts call for, and act accordingly. Ca REGARDING ANIMALS ESTRAY.—Tbe law provides that a person taking up estray stock shall give notice that such animals are on their premises by pub- lishing three times in a newspaper published within the section where the estray was found, and if the property is not called for within three weeks after inserting notice the finder shall go to a justice of the peace and make oath to finding and advertising. If the property is not claimed within a year and should not exceed $50 in value, it then belc.ngs to the party on whose premises it strayed. If worth over $50 it shall he advertised by the justice and sold, and the excess of all expenses shall be paid over to the county treas- urer. Any person taking up an estray and neglecting to cause the same to ire advertised and appraised shall be liable to a tine of $20.—Ex. THE PARK TRACK.—Through the energy of Messrs. Riter, Capt. Combe, Lieut. McTaggart and Chief Wheatley the track on Recreation Park has been greatly improved. The Chief passed around a subscription list and at 25 cents each enough money was raised to engage a couple of teams and sever- al men. The road machine performed excellent work under the direction of Wheatly. If it is to be kept in good shape there should be no tragic on it in wet weather, and there should not he since it has been graded for bicycl- ing. What Clinton requires is a pro- gressive bicycle club. It has been sug- gested that if a club were formed, ar- rangements, could be made for two or three first-class concerts during the winter, the proceeds to go toward a cinder race or speeding track in the spring. There is no reason why a move in this direction should not he made by those who have time to de- vote to such a commendable undertak- ing, NEW GAME LAWS.—The revised On- tario Garne and Fishing Laws have been put into our bands by Chief War- den Edwin Finsley, of Toronto. From it we make the following deductions respecting the close seasons in which it is unlawful to shoot game or offer it for sale : Bass, April 15 to June 15.
