• ME LAST WEEK'S GAMES.
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.

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.

The Canned Meat Question,
Dr. Chisholm,. M. P., ot East Bum,
Questions" the Government.
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 ?
Next Sunday, Rev. Fr. Laurendeau
