ALLEN & WILSON. ACCIDENT. --Dell, the little two year old daughter of Mr. Jacob Miller, fell off the verandah, adistance of three or four feet, last Thursday, and broke her thigh bone. A DISTINCTION WITHOUT A DIFPER- ENCE.—Our esteemed town cetera says :— "Thee statement in tilis weeks NEws-Rncoun that the Collegiate In- stitute Board had expressed itself as opposed to the introduction of 5th Class work in the Public School, is in- correct, the fact being that the Board has taken no action in the matter."

FALL Slaows,—Commencing with this week the fan fair with its prize lists, its big pumpkins and other at. tractions, its admiring crowds and its features will occupy a large share of space in the daily and weekly papers. The Industrial opened its gates on Tuesday and until- the last township Show has recorded "the greatest suc- cess in its history" this subject will claim a first place in attention. Well, let it receive tt. The exhibition is pro- perly looked on as one of our greatest educators, and, it would be hard to esti- mate the benefit. conferred on mankind by the late Prince Consort to whom properly belongs the credit of the first Great International Exhibition held in London in 1851. THE COLLEGIATE COMMENCEMENT. We wish to call the attention "of our readers to the Second Annual Com- mencement of Clinton Collegiate In- stitute, to be held on Friday, Septem- ber 20th. The Board and staff are making every effort to make the event of great interest and pleasure to all friends of the school, and especially to the ex -pupils. It is expected that the teachers of the district will take a holi- day, and attend in a body to show their interest in,higher education. At 1.30 p. m. games and races of all kinds will be held on the school grounds, in which both girls and boys will partici- pate. At 8 p. m. in the Town Hall, a good musical programme will be given and the certificates won in the hast examinations presented to the success- ful students. While all our citizens are invited to attend, a special invita- tation is extended to the ladies of Ciin- ton and vicinity. MARRIED.—The Walkerton Herald thus refers to a happy event which occurred at Hanover on the 4th inst. The groom is a nephew of the editor of THE NEWS -RECORD and was on a brief visit to Clinton last winter :—"The home of Mr. James McGeagh, Han- over, was the scene of a happy event on Wednesday when his eldest daughter was united in marriage to Mr. Thos. R. Todd, of Hillview, Man. Owing to the illness of the bride's mother the wedding was a quiet affair, none hut the immediate relatives of the con- tracting parties being present. The knot was tied by the Rev. Mr. Cr•:rigie of Hanover. Mr. Harry Todd acted as best man while the bride was support- ed by her sister Miss Maggie. The newly wedded pair leave on Saturday for Manitoba where Mr. Todd has ex- tensive land interests. The Herald ex- tends to Mr. and Mrs. Todd its hearty congratulations on the important step in Iife which they have taken." ,r0 Stoc1-Takjng. HORSE STOLEN.—Sunday morning Mr. John Pickett found a horse and ba ►gy in front of his place. He made diligent enquiry for the owner, but tailed to locate him and handed the outfit over to Chief Wheatley. The latter traced the ownership to Robert McMordie, near Kippen and he came up Monday and secured the property. Mr. McMordie is quite sure the horse and rig were stolen. The animal was in the pasture field Saturday evening. For some reason the thief left the outfit in Clinton, probably through fear of being captured. FAIR LUNA'S ECLIPSE.—Tuesday night was perfect for the eclipse for not a cloud dimmed the sky. At 11.02 the shadow was well on. The eclipse displayed some beautiful coloring. At first a copper -colored tint was notice- able, especially strong on the north- east corner. Later on this extended itself, and a beautiful tint of blue and green shading off to grey were notic- able. At 12.57, when the middle of the total eclipse was reached, the coppery color was yery heavy, and other shades had disappeared. At 2.54 a. in. the moon left the shadow, and at 4.06 a. m. the penubra. A number of our citizens lost several hours of slumber in order to view the spectacle. ARE THEY FRAUDS P—Last May THE NEWS -RECORD performed some adver- tising for the Buyers and Merchants Benefit Co., 441A Richmond street, London, Geo. W. Miller, manager. It was announcing a grand military dem- onstration on the 76th anniversary of Her Majesty's Birthday. We have spent considerable postage in dunning and have drawn on the firm, but no attention has been paid and the draft has not been honored. The editor of the Free Press has even failed to give any information as to the reliability of the Buyers and Merchants Benefit Co. If this is the -apparently fraudulent manner in which military demonstra- tions are conducted in the Forest City the people should know it. So far THE NEWS -RECORD has not been honestly dealt with in the matter, and it is beginning to dawn on us that the firm may be a fraud. MORE TRAMPS —Last Wednesday an able-bodied young man was soliciting alms in Clinton. He claimed to have a broken arm and the member was encased in plaster paris. Chief Wheat- ley took charge of his trampshipand escorted him to a medical man fr ex- amination. The opinion was that the arm was broken. The back of one hand had the appearance of being re- cently blistered ; but this was account- ed for by relating an accident. He was warned by the Chief to leave town. Later on inthe day the same officer of the law was weighing stock at the station and spotted the fraud along with two other men. The brok- en arm had suddenly become well and was being used quite freely, When interrogated by the Chief he made a doable -quick dash in the direction pf Bayfield. Every tramp should bo placed in the care of the town authori- ties and suinmarily dealt with. Citi- zens owe a duty to themselves in this respect. We commence Stock -Taking the end of this month, but before we start we would like to reduce our Stock.

SEND IN THE ITEMS.—The editors of newspapers are often blamed for pari iality in their notices of churches. societies and families, when the fact is the parties most interested are the ones to blame. The newspaper doesn't possess a sufficient force of reporters to send to every church service in the range of circulation, and it must needs depend on some person to send in the news. Many pastors or elders of the congregation do this, and their items are gladly printed, but the paper is found fault with by other churches who neglect to send in their notices and the, charge of partiality is made. The editor inay belong to one or two of the hundred societies in town and naturally hears alt the news in refer- ence to his particular organizations, while the other societies, by keeping their items to themselves, miss the little mentions they would gladly re- ceive. Ruhr-DECANAL MEETING.—The half - yearly meeting of the Ruri-decanal Chapter of Huron ' was held in St. Paul's church, Clinton, on Tuesday last, the rural dean presiding, The members present were :—.Revs. Rural Dean Hodgins, Higley, Parke, Stout, Armstrong anCanon Young ; Messrs. Jewett, Ransford, Freeborn. Combe, Middleton and Holmes. Prayers were read by the chairman and Rev-. Mr. Stout was appointed secretary. The business of electing assessors under canon 25, to act for one year, was pro- ceeded with, and resulted as follows : Revs. Rural Dean Hodgins, Turnbull and Psrrke, and Messrs. Holmested and Ransford. 'These will visit the several parishes in the deanery and apportion the amount to be raised for the sup- port of tbeir clergyman. Rev. Canon Young then addressed the meeting on the methods to be adopted for increas- ing the contributions to our mission fund. The whole- matter was thor- oughly discussed, and the clergy pres- ent were urged to see that everything necessary for the proper working of the missionary cause should he carried out. The annual missionary meetings will be held this year before the 15th December. A vote of thanks was ten- dered Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Parke for their kindness in entertaining the clergy to dinner, and the meeting was closed to meet at Wingham in May. RESOLUTIONS OJ! CONDOLENCE. --The following resolutions were passed at the last meeting of Clinton Lodge No. 83, I. O. O. F. :— "The members of this Lodge wish to record their sincere sympathy with Bro. Malcolm Dowser in the groat loss he has sustained by the sudden and unexpected death of his deeply lamented mother. The removal by death of the mother from the family circle is at any time an event which arouses in the community feelings of the keenest commiseration, but when death comes with so sudden a stroke and without warning carries away from a family already bereaved of the father, the mother also, around whom the heart strings of the entire household are most closely entwined, the bereavement is almost overwhelm- ing. In this deep sorrow we extend to Bro. Dowser and his brothers and sisters our profound sympathy."—"The _members of Clinton Lodge No. 83, I. O. O. F., 'extend to Bro. Wm. Spooner• their heartfelt sympathy in the bere- avement he has been called upon to suffer in the death of his aged father. We know that the sorrow which is felt by the loss through death of one so intimately and tenderly related as the father is to his child cannot he remov- ed by the condolence of friends, yet our hearts are gloved to the warmest brotherly sympathy With you in your grief and loss.' - esley &co.
