On Sunday last the members of L.
0, L. 194, Orange Young Britons, and
Lad TrueBlues e
Lady Bl s alt nava Divine ser-
vice in St, Paul's church, The breth-
ren gathered in the ranks eighty
strong, and at 11 a, rn, marched neatly
to the cinhrch, where they listened to
an appi•opriatn sermon frorn the Rec-
tor, Rev. T, S. Boyle, M. A., B. D.
The Rector chose for his text, the
first verse of the 44th Psalm—"We
have heard with our eara, 0 God, our
fathers have told us, what work thou
didst in their days, in times of old."
The following is
a synopsis of the
discourse :-.-
After announcing his text, the Rec-
tor welcomed the brethren to St.
Paul's church. The Church of Eng-
land, he declared, had ever been on
the side of civil and religious freedom,
had shared in the battles of liberty,
and was therefore in sympathy with
the cause of Orangeisrn. Briefly he
referred to the fact that it was St.
John the Baptist's day, working out a
parallel between the great forernuner
of Christ and the heroes of Protes-
tantism, Luther and the Prince of
Orange. Then speaking as an Orange-
man to Orangemen, Mr. Doyle traced
the development of the Jewish race,
the Obristian Church and the British
Empire. In Canada, he said, we were
just awakening to the fact of our
great possibilities as a nation. The
present was a transition period, a
crisis in our national growth, and
Orangeism was inseparably bound up
with true national development. It
was farthest from Orange principles
to kindle religious intolerance or bigo-
try, or to raise the race cry. They
had to do, however, with the very es-
sentials of our national being. Their
warfare was against evil principles,
and was at no time personal. They
stood for light as against ignorance,
for individual rights and liberty as
against oppression. They upheld -the
personal supremacy of Christ, the
rights of conscience, the independence
of Christian thought. Orangemen
were pledged to oppose any attack on
these rights, from whatever q uar•te
r
these attacks cane. These were quali-
ties to he cherished jealously, if our
Canadian people were to grow into an
enlightened, progressive and freedom -
loving nation.
In conclusion he quoted the follow-
ing noble expression of imperial senti-
ment :—
Strong are we P Make us stronger yet,
Great? Make us greater far,
Our feet, antarctic oceans fret,
Our crown the polar star,
Round earth's wide coasts our bat-
teries speak,
Our highway is the main
We stand the guardian of the weak,
We break the oppressor's chain.
Then bind our realms in brotherhood,
Firm laws and equal rights,
Let each uphold the empires good,
In freedom that unites
And make that speech whose thun-
ders
un-ders roll,
Down the broad stream of time,
The harbinger from pole to pole
Of love and peace sublime,
Great God uphold us in our task,
Keep pure and clean our rule,
Silence the honeyed words that mask
The wisdom of the fool.
The pillars of the world are thine
Pour down Thy bounteous grace,
.And make illustrious and divine
The sceptre of our race.
After the brethren had returned to
the Lodge room, it was moved by
Bros. Hall and D. Bell, and resolved:—
That a vote of thanks be tendered the
Wardens of St. Paul's church for their
kind permission to worship there; to
the Rector for his excellent sermon,
and to the Choir for the nntsie render-
ed. On motion of Bros. Maguire and
Green, the visiting brethren were
thanked for their fraternal visit. The -
brethren then dispersed.

Pension Bill Repealed.
The Bill granting pensions of $3,500
to ex -Cabinet ministers, who have
served live years in the Cabinet, is
likely to be repealed ; at least, Fin-
ance Minister Fielding has given
notice of a Bill to that effect. The
electors generally will approve of this;
indeed the dissatisfaction throughout
the country at the pension clause, was
so pronounced, that the Government
oould scarcely refuse to repeal that
clause. The increased indemnity to
the members of the Commons and the
Honorable old Senators, however, still
remains and
apparently
hascone
to
stay.

Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Button (former-

Buffalo, thence by train to Philadel-
phia; there they take steamer to Port
Autonia, Jamaica, thence across to
Cuba. They expect to travel through
Cuba and rehire by way of New York.

to go to the "sunny south" unless the
heat, there is Iike the cold in Manitoba
(that is you don't feel it). Mr. and
Mrs. Button's Wingharn friends wish
them a very pleasant trip and safe re-
turn to the laud of the Maple Leaf,

Lacrosse Match.
The second home game in the dis-
trict C. L. A, was played on the Park
here, on 'Wednesday last, between
Wingharn and Clinton Lacrosse
teams. It was nearly seven o'clock
when the teams lined up for play,
with J. E, Cantelon of Clinton as re-
feree. The first quarter showed hard
play, but neither team scored. In
the second quarter
lively Y p1a
y con-
tinued, and Reid and Fleming scored
for the home team. The big defence
men of the visitors showed signs of
being winded, while the Iocal team
played good, clean lacrosse, McGii-
livery in the goal, making some very
pretty stops. At the close of the
2nd quarter, rain descended in tor-
rents, and the boys went out on a wet
field to finish the game. The third
quarter was more Clinton than Wing -
ham, but only one goal fell to the visi-
tors', making the score 2-1 in favor of
the home team. The last quarter was
played nine hien aside, as some were
laid off for repairs. Nevertheless,
Kenikes, Elliott and Wendorf scored
four for the home teazel, while Couch
for the visitors landed one, Making
the score 0-2 in favor of Winghtun.
Me.
Cantelon probably did the best he
could as referee, brit perhaps ;allowed
the visitors too much rough play,
which cost them the game.

paralyzed, as is also the left side of Itis
face. Isis left arm is powerless, but
is regaining its strength. A. peculiar
feature of the ease is that the chest
is seared and marked like the branches

Canada Furn. Mfrs.
As intimated last week, a regular
meeting of the heads of the various
factories of the Canada Furniture
Manufacturers Ltd. was held in Wing -
ham on the 20th inst., and the busi-
ness was not completed when we went
to press. Those present were—J, R.
Shaw, Vice -President and Managing -

agent, Toronto; W. Lamont, W.
Welsh and Alex. Watson, of the Ber-
lin factories ; H. Schaefer, represent-

factories unrepresented were those at
Woodstock, Manager McBeatlt having
missed the train. The matters dis-
cussed related purely to the operation
of the factories. All reported being
busy. Some of the managers bad
never been in Wingham before, and
they were deligbted with our pretty
town, and surprised at finding here the
Company's three factories, and such
complete and splendid plants. Mr.
Shaw was very much pleased to see
that the G. T. R. officials had fully ap-
preciated Winghatn's importance as a
big shipping centre, and had taken
steps to meet all requirements, at the
same time showing such good taste in
erection of the new station and ar-
rangement of the yard. The new ad-
dition to the Union factory, being
completed and occupied, together with
the additional storage the Company
has acquired by the purchase of the
old G. T. R. freight shed, has put it in
a position to handle its constantly in-
creasing business,

Flicks' Forecasts Por July.
An excessively warm wave will pass
over this country generally, and over
other countries as well, during the
first ten days of this month. The as-
tronomic conditions, on and touching
'Wednesday the 4th to Sunday the
8111, indicate disturbances of more
than ordinary violence. Terrific elec-
trical disturbances, with heavy, tor-
nadic storms over central to north-
westerly regions, will be perfectly
natural. If severe end general thun-
der storms do not relieve the electric
and magnetic strain, about the 4th to
the 7th, the high temperature will in-
crease to phenomenal readings and be
followed by seismic and kindred per-
turbations over our own and other
quarters of the planet, The crisis of
the next period will fall on and touch-
ing Thursday the 12111, Oii this date
the Moon crosses the celestial equator,
coming northward. This fact will
add to the probabilities of very high
temperature, low barometer anti thun-
der storms on and next to the 12th,
A regular storm period covets the
15th to the 10th, central ort the 17th.
Notwithstanding "anybody eller safely
predict that it will be warm in July,"
we predict that it will be wanner at
some times than others, and that this
period, the 45th to 10th, will lead up
to one of .J'uly's warmest periods,
More thunder storms Ore probable
from the 17th to 10th. A reactionary

and 23td, in which storms and eartir-
civake distntbtutces will be reported
