AVIN(1)I AM Air BAYPIELD, Wingham Football Club played the return game at, Bayfield on Tuesday, June 5th, and lost by a or of 2 to 0 —not 1 to 0, as reported in last week's PaPers. The ground was a sea of mud and rain fell throughout the game. Had the weather been favorable, the Wiughara bo” would have shown a better account of themselves, but the long drive .and wet grounds caused their defeat.. Wrissais.st WINS DISTRICT. The final game of the district, was played on Friday, when Wingham went to Brussels to re -play the protes- ted game of May. Though playing only ten men to Brussels' eleven, Wingham won the district champion- ship by a score of 1-0, the game being played before a small crowd and in a drenching rain, Brussels seeing that Wingham was only able to put on ten men, refused to drop one, but Wing - ham boys, nothing daunted, threw themselves into the contest with ener- gy, and won the game, outnumbered as they were, For the first 25 minutes no goals were scored, Wingham boys playing a hard defence game; then a Brussels playee made a foul, giving Wingham a chance to score, which was done by a pretty shot from Mc- Gillivray to Cruikshank, who did the rest. From this, Wingham put up the most stubborn defence, and kept the, ball clear of -their goal for the rest of the game. Brown Jackson of Seaforth refereed. the game in his usual fair manner, and endeavored to induce the Brussels players to be fair and drop one player, but they were so anxious to win they positively refused. Dur- ing the last few minutes, Wilson made a foul in goal for a penalty, and the crowd got around Wingham's goal- keeper, but Strachan was so sure of making the score a tie that he shot four feet wide, and Brussels' chances disappeared again. It is rumored that Brussels had bills ready for the first game in the second round. This is the first time Brussels has been defeated on their own ground in five years, and Wingham did it. Wingham Football players are now the champions of the district. Won Thaw Lost Points Wingham 2 1 1 5 Bayfleld .... 1 2 1 4 Brussels .... 1 1 2 3 CLEAN GAME OP LACROSSE. On Wednesday evening of last week Goderich lacrosse club made their first visit to the locals in this district, and before a large enthusiastic crowd, lost, by a score of 7 to 3, both teams put- ting up a good clean game of lacrosse. In the first quarter both teams were playing on even basis, but Wingham home pressing hard at the end of the quarter, with the score a tie, 1 to 1. The second quarter was much the same as the first, Wingham home wearing down the visitors defence, but Goderich met them well, and the quarter ended 2 to 2. Everybody was anxious as the third quarter began, but the locals were out to win, and the quarter ended 5 to 3 in favor of Wingham. The fourth quarter was played in semi -darkness, and was un- eventful, only for the scoring of 2 more goals by the local team, ending the game by a score of 7 to 3. Mr. Geo. Allen of Mt. Forest, refereed satisfactorily, and had little to do in the way of penalizing, no dirty work being seen during the whole game. The best of good feeling prevailed, and this should always be the case.

On Thursday last, Dr, Chisholm (East Huron) called the attention of Parliament to the shocking revela- tions in connection with the sanitary conditions of Chicago Packing houses, and asked the Government for the fol- lowing information :- 1—What quantities of canned meats were imported from the United States into Canada during the years 1903, 1904 and 1905 respectively? 2—What was the value of the above in each of the years above-mentioned ? 3—What quantities of meats, fluid _beef, and unmedicated soeps, were im- ported from the United States during the years 1903, 1004 and 1905, respec- tively, and what was the value of the same ? 4—What are the respective rates of duty on canned meats and extracts of meats coming from the United States to Canada? 5—Has the attention of the Govern- ment been drawn to the reported con- dition of affairs in connection with the meat packing houses in Chicago? 0—In view of the statements made respecting the unsanitary condition prevailing in the meat packing houses in Chicago, is it the intention of the Government to increase the duty or prohibit the importation of canned meats and meat extracts from the United States, as a protection to the health of our citizens, and at the same time benefit the Canadian farmer, stock -raiser, and packer ?
