CLEANING Ur.—During the past
week, the weather being so beautiful,
most people in town have got the fever
of rakiug up ail the dead leaves on
their promisee and the street, and
burning them, which certainly adds
greatly to the appearance of the town.
IN NEW PREMISES.—Jackson Bros.
announce an inauguration sale in their
new premises, corner of Albert and
Huron streets, to -morrow, Saturday.
In their new, commodious premises
they will be able to meet all the re-
quirements of their extensive business,
- which will, doubtless, under their en-
terprize and energy, continue to great-
ly expand.
STATION NOTES,—Mr J. R. Holmes
:shipped one car of horses to Deloraine,
Man., and one car of apples to Killar-
ney, Man. Mr E. Watson, Blyth,
shipped one car of stock to Montreal,—
W. Doherty & Co, shipped two cars of
organs to Liverpool. J. Fair shipped
one car of flour to Montreal. 3. Col-
well shipped one car of hogs to Hamil-
ton. Mr Steep has just filled a con-
tract of 4500 bbls of apples for Mr Ben-
der, of Cincinatti, Ohio, loading them
-during the last two weeks. Mr Rens-
ford shipped eight cars of salt to local

Shipment to Liverpool. J. Jteep ship-
ped three cars of apples to Morrisburg,
for cold storage. There were three
special trains up this week, one getting
a full load from ere.
WHAT WL+ WANT IT TO BB.— A.4Rb-
scriber to the 1`IBW EVA. in Toronto,
writes as follows:—"I find yoer vain -
able paper more useful than a letter
fur giving all the news, so would not
be without it if possible."
THE 1WIIATUER.—On Saturday last it
looked as if winter was going to set in,
as the ground showed a beautiful
white carpet, but it soon melted away,
and for the past few days the weather
has been particularly fine and warm,
rewiudiug one more of summer than
winter.
BARRELs. —Some idea of the de -
mated for apple barrels this season may
be gathered from the fact that Messrs
Ranefor d, of the Stapleton Salt Works,
have turned out 85,000 barrels; Mr D.
Dickinson has turned out nearly two
thousand. When it is remembered
that barrels have also been turned out
by the thousand at Blyth, Hensel',
Seafortb, Goderich, Manchester and
other points, it shove how busy coop-
ers have been.
Fool' BALL --On Wednesday night
a foot ball match was held between the
Collegiate boys and the Modelites. The
game was well contested and neat
combination was shown on both sides.
The modelites though inferior in size
were rather fast for the Collegiate boys
and when time was called the score
was 2 to 1 in favor of the modelites.
An oyster supper for the two teams
was held in the evening which was set
up by the losing side, and secur-
ed at Mr C.Witts'restaurant.
I. 0. G. T.—A large number attended
the open meeting of the I. 0. G. T. last
Friday evening, when the following
program was rendered:—Duet, Mrs
Hoover and Miss Goodwin; reading,Mr
Houston; instrumental duet, Messrs
Emerton and Walker; address, Rev Mr
Millyard; instrumeneal,Mr Yellowlees;
recitation, Miss Washington; recitat-
ion, T. Courtice, of Holmesville. The
most pleasing feature of the evening
was the address by Mr Millyard. The
reverend gentleman is equally at home
on the temperance platform and in the
pulpit, and delivered a fluent, eloquent
and forcible address, and those who
listened to his terrible arraignment of
the evils of intern erance could not
help but feel that the liquor traffic is
productive of more poverty, crime, de-
solation than all other Satanic in-
fluences combined.
HIGH SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS.—
The following extracts from Circu-
lar No. 50, recently issued by the Min-
ister of Education, will prove interest-
ing to many Public School teachers:—
"'The Public School Leaving exarnina-
tion will be conducted under the exist-
ing regulations in 1897. Any Public
School Leaving Certificate granted
heretofore or that may be awarded
hereafter will have the same value as a
certificate of having passed in Form 1.
The holder of a Public School Leaving
Certificate will not he required to pass
the examination of Form 1 to the
High School." "Form 1 examination
will be conducted in 1897 asa,in 1896.
High School pupils will not=ie,allowed
to be candidates at the Public School
Leaving examination until after 1897."
AN IMPRISONED Doa. <When, the
Medical Association held.,,ite meeting
in the Council Chamber fast Wednes-
day Dr. Shaw's dog accompanied him
thither. But when the doctor came
out the dog did not come, a fact that
was not observed at the time. When
the doctor missed his favorite he went
'"'rbback but could find no trace of it
"whatever. Mr Welsh, in the course of
Allis daily duties, continued looking for
the animal, but it was not until Fri-
day afternoon that he was able to lo -
rate it, and then only after consider-
able difficulty. It would seem that
when the dog found itself shut up in
-'the engine room, where it had evident -
1y wandered while the meeting was in
progress, it made its way up the hose
tower, and when found by Mr Retail
-was wandering pitifully about the top
'"landing.
DISTRICT ThtM 'LAas.—Districtiodge
No. 24, I.O.G.T., met in Blyth on
Wedpesday of last week. Lelegates
were present trom the lodges at Clin-
ton, $inborn, Lucknow, Wingham,
_Auburn, Paramount, Londesboro,
-Ilummerhill and Blyth. There were
nearly 100 delegates present, among
this number being G.C.T. Brockensbire,
of Wingham. Reports showed the
lodge to be in a flourishing condition.
Preparations were madefor a thorough
•campaign during this present fall and
winter. An organizer was appointed
with instructions to devote his whole
time in the interests of the lodge. The
delegates were billeted among their
temperance friends here and bad their
.every want served. In the evening an
.entertainment was given in the Tem-
perance hall, under the auspices of the
elocal lodge; P.O.T. Murdock, of Luck -
?now, occupied the chair, and a good
prcgram was given. The proceeds
—,mounted to nearly $25. The next
meeting will be held In Clinton in
February.
MARRIAGES.—The Prairie Witness of
Indian Head, of Oct. 22nd, has this to
say of one of Clinton's prominent citi-
aens:—"Mr W. C. Searle, who has been
visiting for some time at the Head.
the guest of Mr R. Lee, bas returned
- •to his home in Clinton, Ont. Mr
8eerle has made many friends during
his stay with us, and we have no doubt
the hospitality of our people helped
bin to enjoy his visit. Mr and Mrs
Lee have given him what will contri-
bute to his future happiness—a wife.
Of course Mr Searle took his wife with
him, and the friends here will be glad
to hear of their continued happiness
and prosperity. We are sorry to lose
Miss Lee, but we have sometimes to
give up our own pleasure that another
-may be blessed." The NEW ERA ex-
tends hearty congratulations to Mr
and Mrs Searle. Miss Lee was former-
ly a resident of Clinton, and ws be-
speak for her a happy home among us.

MEETING Or MCNICIPAL CLERKS.—
A step in the right direction was taken
on Friday last, when a number of the
municipal clerks . of the county met
in the town hall, here, and decided to
form themselves into an association.
Mr W. Lane, County Clerk, was elect-
ed President, and Wm. Coate, of Clin-
ton, Secretary. It is proposed `o hold
a meeting annually in Clinton, in June,
after the meeting of the County Coun-
cil. The object of the Association will
be to secure uniformity in the manner
of performing the many duties which
pertain to the municipal clerkship, par-
ticularly in connection with election
to the County Council, the preparation
of the voters' lists and collector's rolls,
selection ofurors and registration of
births, deaths and marriages. Few
persons not experienced in municipal
affairs have any idea of the many du-
ties to be performed b the clerk of a
municipality, among the least i.nport-
ant of which is the recording of the
minutes. The Association proposes to
ask the new County Council to bear
the actual expenses incurred by the
clerks in attending the enamel meet-
ings, and their proposition should be
willingly assented to by the County
Council. Among those present were
Wrn. Lane, county clerk; Messrs Smil-
lie, of Tuckersmith; Campbell, Hullett;
Cairns, of Stanley; Prouty, of Stephen;
Hess, of Hay; Sturdy, of Goderich
township; Erwin, of Bayfield; Morris,
of McKillop, and Coats, of Clinton.

DEATH OF JOSEPH ROWELL•—On
Saturday last another of the older resi-
dents of town passed away in the per-
son of Mr Joseph Rowell, at the age of
86 years, being ill about six weeks
previous to hie death. He was born in
England, near Newcastle -on -the -Tyne,
co Dec. 10th, 1810, and emigrated to
Canada in 1844, settling in York, now
Toronto. In 1862 he, accompanied by
his youngest son, took a trip to Cali-
fornia, having to sail from New York
to South America, in order to reach
bis destination. From California he
went, to Yale, B.C., returning to Clin-
ton in 1874. He was a man of unusual
mental as well as physical vigor, and
every question that had in it the prin-
cipal of bettering the condition of his
fellow, found in him a warm and
sturdy friend and supporter. Exceed-
ingly unostentatious, he disliked any-
thing pertaining to sham or deceit.
He w as for many years a consistent
member of the Congregational church.
In politics a Liheral. Having been a
prominent resident of Toronto for
many years the remains were taken
there for interment. Rev. Mr Stewart,

o'clock on Monday from Zion Congre-
gational church to Necropolis. There

composed chiefly of old residents of
Toronto. Mr Sowell was a very pro-
minent citizen of this city fifty years
ago. In the 40's he was an enthusiastic
volunteer fireman and was captain of
the hook and ladder division at Say
street hall. He was a blacksmith by
trade and kept a shop on Queen street

its advocate". This wag during '49 and
