ST. PAUL'S UHURCH.—A largely
-attended vestry meeting in the school
room last Wednesday evening, to con-
sider the free will offering as at present
or the adoption of the pew rent sys-
tem, almost unanimously favored the
latter. Dr. Freeborn, as one of the
Wardens, went into the matter most
thoroughly from all standpoints. The
meeting gave the Wardens power to
allot pews and in accordance with the
Canon the minister will call a meeting
to decide as to rents.
LOCAL UNION EXECUTIVE MEETING.
—On Thursday evening, the 14th inst.,
a meeting of the Local Union Execu-
tive was held at the home of Mr. Wil-
Iiam Cooper. Three items of business
awaited conclusions ; they were as fol-
lows: —1. The subjects for the next Lo-
cal Union to be held in Ontario St.
Methodist Church early in January.
11. Nomination of officers for the en -
ening year. III. The Sabbath services
at the House of Refuge. As to No. 1,
the subjects chosen were (a) A Chris-
tian's relation to the Sabbath; (h)
Christ's methods in personal work.
The former was alloted to Holrnesville
and the latter given to Turners. Offi-
cers were then nominated and the this d
item reluctantly left over to the more
responsible parties for further discus-
, sion. The secretary hopes that the in-
tei:ested public may bear the January
meeting in mind and that one of the
best meetings yet held, may greet all
interested workers.
SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING.—There
was a special meeting of the Town
Council last Friday evening, the Mayor,
Reeve Kennedy, Councillors Bruce,
Overberry, McMurray, Taylor, McKen-
zie and Gilroy being present. The ob-
ject of the meeting was to decide as to
tendering a banquet to the members of
the County Council and to take some
action in regard to improving the road
on Albert Street north during the win-
ter months. It was decided after con-
siderable discussion to tends ban-
quet, which will be held at We Hotel
Clarendon on December 5th after the
concert in the town hall. The best
mode of making Albert Street north
passable during the winter Months was
thoroughly argued and *it was finally

per rod. On a vote being called for,
the yeas were Kennedy, Bruce, Over-
Mbury, . Taylor, Gilroy, and the nays
urray and McKenzie, the later
favoring a high board fence. All
were unanimous that something should
ire done, and the wire fence will dem-
onstrate whether or not it will prove
satisfactory. Last winter the cost to
the town to keep the road open was
more than what the erection of the
fence will he and there cannot be any
great mistake in the investment. Wm.
Grant was refunded 82 cents wt'ongful
assessment, and Council adjourn-
ed.

W.iNTON AEs.EcBATION.—For very
many years the old Maitland (Metho-
dist) cemetery has been known at
Bea orth and Many a weary soul has
been laid at rest there. " The land for
the cemetery was originally purchased
by the late James Sperling and a living
desceddant still holds the deed of the
pproperty,. Those who have friends
interred there were greatly astonished
and justly horrified on learning last
week that monuments erected to the
dead had been removed and the sacred
ground plowed up. The matter is
being investigated and legal steps will
likely be taken against those who may
have been guilty of desecrating God's
acre.
CAPTAIN ANDREWS IN TROUBLE.—
The following from the Globe of Thurs-
day refers to the blind man who mar-
ried the blind girl Thornton here and
is said to have afterward deserted her :
—The afternoon Police Court was occu-
pied for some time yesterday in hear-
ing charges preferred by Inspector
Archibald's department against Capt.
Andrews, the blind life-saver, df sell-
ing tobacco to minors. The Captain
keeps a little cigar store on Yonge
street, and it was alleged that he made
a practice of supplying young boys with
cigarettes, chewing and smoking to-
bacco, etc. Three or four lads testified
that they had purchased from the de-
fendant, and the captain, who conduct-
ed his own case, claimed in reply that
he always questioned his customers
when he had suspicions, adding that he
had offended one or two dudes with
effeminate voices by asking them how
old they were. (Great laughter.) One
of the boys admitted that he had given
defendant a note from his uncle author-
izing him to supply some tobacco, and
Captain Andrews produced the note,
and added that boys often gave him
blank pieces of paper, saying they
were orders, and he didn't know to the
contrary until his wife would tell him
afterwards. In the course of the case
defendant spoke bitterly of the alleged
persecution to which he was subjected
by the police, and of the difficulties he
encountered. in earning hie living on
account of his blindness. The police,
on the other hand, declared that he had
been repeatedly warned and that he
persisted in knowingly breaking the
aw. In the end a conviction was re-
corded, but under the circumstances
Magistrate Miller thought he would be
justified in allowing defendant to go on
suspended sentence.

SOMETHING THAT CONCERNS
EVERYBODY. -
Considerably over Two Thousand Families Read
THE NEWS-RECORDeVery week.
Over 2,000 families buy Clothing and in all cases they want to know where they
are going to buy the cheapest, which is quite right and as a general
thing they all read the many advertisements in this paper to see which
is the most reliable place to invest their money and the general
verdict is JACKSON, THE CLOTHIER, and np•To-Date Cutter,
where you are sure to get perfect fitting garments. People are all
complaining of hard times, which is true enough, and as a natural con-
sequence they want to be careful how they lay out their money. But
yet they must be clothed and what I want to tell the many families
who- read this paper is that I am offering epeeist inducements to
compare with the bard times and if you will only call and see what
we have got you will be convinced that this is your place for Fine
Ordered Clothing and for two weeks more will continue to sell
