Mineapolis Tribune, May IS, 1895.— "Truly the brightest and most pleasing entertainment which has been orought before the public this season is now run- ning -at the Lyceum Theatre, under the title of 'The Brownies in Fairyland." The costumes are both exquisitely pretty sozd absurdly grotesque; the tableaux and stage surprises are very effective; the lines bright and interesting.' Town Hall, Clinton, Nay 22nd. CLINTON CONSERVATIVES. — There will be a meeting of the Clinton Con- servative Association in the Drill Hall • ' this (Wednesday) evening, to select de- legates to attend the Riding Conven- tion at Smith's Hill next Friday. As the meeting on Friday is for the pur- ppoossee of selecting a candidate to contest West Huron in the approaching Do- minion election, it is important there should be a full attendance to -night and a full delegation selected to attend the Smith's Hill meeting. DEATH.—The London Free Press refers to the death of a former resident ,rf Clinton and sister of Mr. Jaynes Howe, town, as follows:—The death is announced of Mrs. Robert Trouse, of Delaware after a very brief illness. She was seized with couyulsions, and only recovered conciousness for a brief period before death ensued. Deceased was the eldest daughter of Mr. E. At Howe, of Belmont, and was born in St. Thomas 46 years ago. She was mar- ried twice, her first husband Wm. Counter having died 24 years ago, Ieaving two sons and a daughter— .Frank Counter of Minnesota; Wm. Counter of Michigan, and Mrs. Geo. Tyler, of Delaware. She was married to Mr. Trouse about 20 years ago, and as a result of this union three child- ren survive her, besides her hus band. L 0. G. T. NOTES.—The L 0. 0. T. Lodge is gradually increasing and rmder the management of James Watters is sure to make progress as it has done in the past. The meeting last Friday evening was a splendid one. After the business part there was a programme given by the ladies, which was as follows :—Instrumental, Miss Tibhutt; recitation, Miss Turner; reading, Rev. Mr. Harris; solo, Miss Whittingham; instrumental, Miss Goodwin; reading, Mrs. Seward; in- strumental duet., Miss Whittinghniu and Miss Bean; impromptues, Messrs. Watters, Moore and Hill. The enter- tainment for next meeting, May 22nd, will he furnished by the gentlemen of the Lodge. Mr. Wes. Moore was ap- pointed as delegate to the District ledge to beheld in St.Helens on Wed- nesday, May 20th. GRAND STAND.—Recreation Park. which is really owned by the Town and Agricultur•.il Society, should have a grand stand. From time to time sports take place in the Park. It is the only place the Town controls and where citizens go. As a rule an ad- mission fee is charged, but none of the eomforts afforded by seating accomoda- tion are available. This is a matter worthy the serious consideration of the powers that be. Every individual Who seeks enjoyment and goes to the park is not able to stand or sit or lay down on mother earth for several hours. People of this particular class —find there are many—would not object to pay a small fee for the privi- lege of a seat and a rest when special aborta are on. Again, the whole peo- p1e are at the present time paying a tax for the nee of this Park and the Council would be justified in moving in this matter and erecting a respect- able grand stand, probably with the assistance of the partnership owners. We trust the suggestion is not, too late to'bave softie defipite action taken be- fore the 26th of May rolls round. It is efearly the duty of the Council, in the interests Of the towel and visitors, that reran aetidh'should be taken. .

McTaggart t Pres., John Harland ; Vice Pre''s , L. Kennedy ; Sec. -'meas., J. W. Chldley ; Execu- tive Commiitee, J. McMurchie, M. D. McTaggart, G. Barge, J. Fair, Jr.; coach and groundewan, J. H. Howson; Captain, J. McMurchie. The crease on Recreation Park is in excellent shape and the Club starts .the season under very f4Y9r4tle Circumstances. IIANn t au8HaD.—.bred Levan, an employe of THE NEWS -RECORD, met with a mishap while running off a tive thousand impression job Monday morning. By some means the three first fingers of his right hand received a good portion of the impression in- stead of the paper and the result is that he is taking a rest. Such rests are neither pleasant or desirable, and the wonder is that every bone was not smashed. In a few days the Injured member, it is hoped, will again be in active service. Mishaps of the kind are rare, but it is a well known fact that a printers' press is not very merciful when a clear impression is required. THE NEW ROAD MACHINE.—During the past week the Copp road making machine purchased by the Town Coun- cil has been at work on Whitehead, Rattenbury and other streets and is giving excellent service under Inspect- or Wheatley. Many streets in town, includingthose mentioned, will now and in uture he in a sanitary condition. In years past populated streets have heeu neglected in the town not providing water tables, thus creat- ing stagnant water and disease. The Town will he in a better position to place the majority of these streets in a sanitary condition. Even at a little extra expense the ratepayers will not object to every side or back street being graded. Now that the Town has such adesirable and satisfac- tory machine it should be kept at work as long as there is anything for it to do. DECORATE THE TOWN.—Next Mon- day there will be a large influx of visi- tors to Clinton. The demonstration managemet desire the business men and citizens to assist in making the town as attractive as possible. Bunt- ing, streamers, flags, evergreens, &c., &c., should he brought into requisition, and thus give the town a bright, at- tractive and welcome appearance to the visitors. Every individual can do something to assist the cemrnittee and it is clearly a duty we owe the town. The town should also do sowething, if even no more than to cut the long grass and weeds and gather up or break the numerous large stones on the streets. We are sure this remind- er will be all that is necessary to have the •town appear in proper holiday attire. THE HURON DISTRICT.—The Huron District lacrosse meeting was held in Mitchell on Friday. The following club representatives were present:— Harry Reid, Clinton ; J. P. Bell, Sea - forth; R. G.,Cuthbertson, Bright; W. R. Cole, Mitchell ; W. B. Barley, Secre- tray, Mitchell. • This schedule was ad- opted:—Clinton at Mitchell, June 18; Clinton at Seaforth, August 4 ; Clinton at Bright, August 28 ; Seaforth at Clin- ton, June 9; Seaforth at Mitchell, August 27; Seaforth at Bright, July 15; Bright at Clinton, July 8 ; Bright at Seaforth, June 17 ; Bright at Mitchell, Mitchell Civic Holiday; Mitchell at Bright, July 1; Mitchell at Clinton, Civic holiday ; Mitchell at Seaforth, July 7. The following referees were appointed :—Geo. Evans, Bright ; R. G. Uuthber'tson, Bright; W. P. Spald- ing, Clinton ; John Shaw, M. D., Clin- ton ; J. B. Bell, Seaforth ; Thos. Stevens, Seaforth ; F. L. Thomson, M. D., Mitchell ; Chas. Lemon, Mitch- ell. DROP IN BREAD.—There was a sud- den drop in bread last Saturday atter- noon. Mr. J. A. King, the popular city baker, had occasion to use his de- livery horse for another purpose and secured another for the cart. A weight was attached to the tie line and no danger was in consequence appre- hended. The rig stopped at the resi- dence of the editor of THE NEWS -RE- CORD and while a supply of the "staff of life" was being delivered the animal made off. It turned down Albert St. andiat Fair's mill headed for Recreation Park. The contents of the rig were spread promiscuously along the public thoroughfare until the cart came to grief. The result proved quitea loss to the surerior bread manufactured by Mr. King, the almost complete break- ing up of a home-made and substantial delivery rig, and some injury to the horse. Notwithstanding the mishap Mr. King is on deck as usual and is prepared to supply bread to poor news- pa.per men and all classes of people with a superior quality of the "staff of life." DEATH OF WM. REED WATTS,—On Wednesday evening last Mr. F. W. Watts received a telegram announcing the death of his father.' Mr. Wm. R. Watts, which occurred at the residence of his daughter Mrs. Garnham, at St. Louis, Missouri, who brought his remains here for interment beside Mrs. Watts, sr. who died in 1876 and is buried in Clinton cemetery. The funeral took place on Friday last being the 62nd anniversary of their wedding day 15th May. Mr WVattswasa native of Yeovil, Sunlmersetshire, England, being horn in 1812.
