To CORRESPONDENTS. — Thursday
next being Thanksgiving Day, it will
be necessary _for us to issue one day
earlier than usual. Will our corres-
pondents please bear this in mind, and
send their copy a day ahead of the
customary time. We would like to
ear from all our correspondents.
SERIOUSLY ILL—For some days Mrs
Thos. Stevenson has been seriously ill,
and we are sorry to learn that she
shows no signs of improvement. She
is one of the earliest and most highly
esteemed residents of the town. Her
oldest daughter, Mrs Roht. Callander,
from near Winnipeg, is expected here
this wtk.
clCHANGEABLE.—This is a wouderfn
imate of ours, for people can have
nearly any kind' of weather they de-
sire. Last Friday we were enjoying
six inches of snow, and on Saturday
plenty of people came to town in cut-
ters and sleighs. Monday the atmos-
phere was so mild that store doors
were thrown open all day.
APPOINTED.—Dr Blacken has been
appointed Veterinary Inspector by the
Dominion Government, for the town
of Canton. It is one that will meet
with very general approval, and shows
the willingness of the. Government to
make appointments regardless of po-
litical leanings. We happen to know
that a veterinary of Liberal principles
was in this instance passed over.
DEATH OF AN OLD SETTLER.—The
Mitchell Advocate says :—There passed
away on Sunday one of Mitchell's very
oldest settlers, in the person of Mrs R.
H. Ruttley. For years she and her
husband managed the "Live and Let
Live Hotel," on the Logan road. She
was a sister of the late Mrs Edward
Greensides, Monkton, and Mrs Copp,
of Clinton; the latter resided with her
of late years.
O N'ry COUNCIL—The next and
tet'ttnteeting of the County Council, as
t e constituted, will be held in Gode-
leb, on December 8rd. The county.

,,PROMPTNESS.—On Thursday last Mr the
CONCERT. — The members of the
Cricket Club expect and deserve a full
house at their concert on Thursday ev-
ening next—Thanksgiving night. They
have prepared a choice program,
wherein our best local talent will fig-
ure, the new Orchestra will make its
first appearance, and several new fea-
tures will be presented. The concert
will be up to -date in every respect,
,and seats may be reserved in any part
of the hall.
A QUESTION.—If Rev J. H. Fairlie
was appointed to his present position
in Manitoba by the Dominion Govern-
ment,, (which we still doubt, the state-
ment of our local cotem, to the con-
trary notwithstanding) then the Gov -
merit could not have been guiltyof
partizanship charged against iin

edeiration Life . Insurance Company,

there are so many good Liberals said
to be anxious for office.
PROPERTY CHANGES.—Mr R. MC.
Lennan has bought the brick store
lately occupied by Jackson Bros., and
owned by Mr W. Jackson, immediately
north of the post office. It is a most
eligible stand, and its occupancy will
enable Mr McLenan to resume busi-
ness at once; the price is $2,500. Mr
Thomas Smallacomb has bought from
Mr Turnbull, of Toronto, the house at
present occupied by himself, the con-
sideration being about $1,000.
HOUSE OF REFUGE NOTES.—The latt
est arrival Is Hobert Hall from Wes-
Wawanosh. There has been 00 com-
mittals during the year. Nine have
died. Thirteen left with the consent
of the officers, while five absconded,
leaving sixty-three inmates in the
House at the present time—forty-seven
reales and sixteen females. Several
are sick, but none are dangerously ill.
A boy of 14, healthy, smart and clever
is in the House, and it is desired to se-
cure a borne for hire with some farrner,
where he can have a chance to go to
school and he well cared for.
REMARKABLY NARROW EACAPE.—
Ou Monday last Mr Norman Fair, who
is employed in his father's flour rnill,
bad a very narrow escape from what
might have been a horrible death,
While dusting some gearing his sleeve
got caught in,t.he machinery, and he
was gradually being drawn in; Mr
Hunt noticed the accident, and with-
out losing a moment rushed down
three flights of stairs to the engine
room, and shut off seam, thus stop-
ping the machinery. Had it not been
for the combined strength of Mr Fair,
who is a good stout young man, and
the presence of mind of Mr Hunt, in
all probability a fatal accident would
have been the result.
THE Naw COUNTY COUNCIL. — In
several municipalities meetings are to
be held to decide on a candidate for
the new County Council represehta•
tion, and it is altogether likely a meet-
ing will be called in Clinton for the
same purpose. The general concensus
of oinion seems to favyor the selection
of r Forrester, 'though he has not yet
sign tied his willingness to' accept the
office, if offered him. There can be no
two opinions as to Mr I+'orrester's fit-
ness for the position. There:atre oth-
ers, also, who would make good repre-
sentatives, snit outside of S. S.'Oooper,
none have signified thea desire to run.

selection at prices that cannot be approached by any other
house in the ur Frieze
O ercoats at 85.50, ane we have already had foude. We have sold hundreds rsf shipments of
this great line. Our low prices on Men's Suits have caused a

again take our special sale of Children's Suits.
