Every citizen in accord with the principles Of t 1e Conservative Par- ty is invited, to be present next Mon- day night. Never before in the history of Canada has the occasion been more important. Mr. Weismiller will likely be present. FIRE. ---The alarm sounded a little af- ter seven o'clock Friday evening and there was soon a big crowd of people on the streets. After some mnrutes the blaze was located at the residence of Mr. James Miller, Albert street. The fires had started upatair•a, evidently from the stove pipe or chimney. A team from Davis livery was soon at- tached to the fire engine, but some of the fastenings gave way and consider- able delay occurred before the Claren- don bus team, in charge of driver Wal- ker, appeared and delivered the fire fighter at the tank on Whitehead street. By the time the engine was throwing water the upstairs of the building was badly gutted, and the roof well burned. Therincipal por- tion of the downstairs furniture was saved. The building and furniture was insured for $400. The destroyed property will cover the greater amount of insurance. CANADIAN WOODMEN OF THE WORLD. -Head Sovereign Organizer Hawthorn of Brantford, has been in Clinton sev- eral days and last Welnesday evening very successfully organized what will hereafter be known as Clinton Camp No. 76, C. O. W. O. W. The following officers were duly elected and installed: -Past Consul Commander, Sovereign Thos. Jackson, Jr.; Consul Command- er, Sovereign J. B. Hoover; Adviser Lieutenant, Sovereign G. P. Emer- son; Clerk, Sovereign H. B. Combe; Banker, Sovereign J. W. Hill; Escort, Sovereign H. B. Kerr; Medical Examiner, Sovereign J. S. Freeborn; Watchman, Sovereign Peter Kerr; Sentry, Sovereign A. M. Todd. The Camp starts ender the most favorable auspices, with a good membership, and promises toreatly extend its field of usefulness. The pre- sent opportunity afforded those who desire $500, $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000 in- surance is such as should meet with popular approval. THE PUBLIC SCHOOL FURNACES. - For several years there was an agita- tion to have furnaces placed in the Clinton Public School. There were those who objected to the expense without considering the ultimate sav- ing to the people in various ways, particularly from the improved sani- tary condition of the rooms by having a scientific system', of ventilation. THE NEws,RECORD has always been in favor of proper ventilation -and pro- per heating. We looked upon the old system, with hnndreds of :children closeted together, as one that must breed disease and cause death. to say nothing of the great expense to the individual. The investment, we hold, is one of the most economical Clinton has ever made. In the Public School Board report extracts are given from the written reports of Principal Lough and Inspector Robb, which near out THE NEwe-RECORD'S contention. In addition to this we would like to have the School Board secure an expert to report on the'pr•eeent system in order that our people may he even more thoroughly satisfied with such an im- portant change. The expense will be a trifle compared with the satisfactory result. Prohahly no man on the Board has been more diligent or sacrificed more time in carrying out this most important work than Trustee W. S. Harland, and THE NEWS -RECORD is pleased to notice that -even though only a slight reward -he has been elected chairman. Mr. Harland is practical in every detail, and has dis- played unusual foresight in bringing to a. successful issue the present needed improvements. The head of every ferniiy in town is indebted to the Board in general and Mr. Harland in particu- lar. HIULLETT DISTRICT ORANGE LODGE. On Tuesday of last week the annual meetingg of Huilett District L. O. L. was heti at Snrnmerhill, Bro. Thos. Mcllveen in the chair. There was a fair attendance, considering that the meeting was a postponed one. After routine business a resolution was in- troduced by Bro. Dr. las. S. Freeborn, seconded by Bro. A. M. 'ford, and un- animously- carried, expressing strong disapproval of the custom of inviting gentlemen not members of the Order to address 12th of July gatherings, and impressing 00 promoters of future de- rnoustretions the desirability of secur- ing only members as speakers. A strong resolution was introduced by Rev. Bro. W. Stout and Bro. (Iso. M. Kilt. approving of M. W. trend Mas- ter Kitty, course in severing his lueratiue connection with the Govern- ment ; charging the Government and Premier Sir Mackenzie Bows ell with being made the political instrul ment of the Romish hierarchy, with overiding Provincial rights in Manito- ha, and with making Romanist]] the state church in this Dominion; expres- sing as little or less confidence in the Opposition, and advocating the forma- tion of a purely Protestant third party. After considerable discussion the reso- lution was amended and declared car- ried on a division. Officers were elect- ed as follows :-District master, Brd. Thos. if cIlveen; Deputy master, Bro. Jno. Bullard; Chaplain, Rev. Bro. W. Stout; Secretary, Bro. G. M. Kilty• Treasurer, Bro, R.Scarlet; Director of ceremonies, Bro. James Miller; Lectur- ers, Bros. John Scarlet, and R. Draper. After the installation the Lodge decid- ed to hold the next antrual meeting in Clinton. After adjournment a moat palatable supper was served at.,the re- sidence of Bro. Chris. Beacom, and it is needless to say the brethren much appreciated the hospitality. The mem- bers of Snmmerhill Lodge always treat their visitors in right royal style, and several who were compelled to leave early regretted very much their inabil- ity to remain for the social reunion. s xr Great. -.r CELEBRATI Saturday, Jan. 25th, 1896.
