The funeral takes place on Friday, Wingham Won At doderich. The Maple Leaf Lacrosse boys are keeping ep their good work, and won at Goderieh on Monday by a score of 3 to 2. When Goderieh boys played here our boys gave them a good, clean game, but they did not return the compliment and used the boys very roughly, but failed to beat them. Paddy Ramore of Fergus refereed the game and gave good satisfaction, but when Goderieh boys saw they could not win they handled the referee vety roughly, but failed to scare him. Mr. Ramore deserves credit for the stand he took, and shotild see that some of Goderieh players were dealt with by C. L. A. This game puts Wingham ahead in the district, and a win from Seafort•h on the 18th will give them a good chance to win the district. The Club intends holding a garden party in the town park on Friday evening next, July 6th, and would like a large turn -out, as they are in need of funds. Encourage the boys by gone presence on Friday evening. Admission will she 10 cents, and a handsome centre table will be given to the holder of the lucky ticket. The Citizens' Band will furnish the music, and a good night's fun may be looked for. SHOES THAT TALK.—To those who know Shoe quality we want only a chance to show our new lines.

The Presbyterian General Assemb- ly formed three new Synods in the West and changed the names and boundaries of a fourth. And yet some ministers tvill have to travel 700 miles to attend a meeting of Synod, The Bruce Times, published in Walkerton, says :—"Rev. Mr. Fitch, of Wingham, and Rev, Mr. Brownlee, of the Baptist church, exchanged pnl- pits on Sunday evening last. Mr. Fitch is an able and instructive speak- er and delivered a splendid sermon. Next Sunday morning Mr. Fitch will speak on "The Supremacy of Truth.' In the evening his subject will be "God's claire upon Young Manhood and Womanhood." A special invitation is extended to all young people to be present in the evening. .

Business Change, We have to report a change in the hardware firm of Bishop & Brewer. Mr. Brewer finds his health failing, and hence with -draws from the firm. His place has been taken by L. A. Ball, who has been known until re- cently in connection with the furni- ture business, We regret to hear of Mr. Brewer's health being in poor condition, but hope that rest may soon prove beneficial. We wish the new firm of Bishop & Ball the fullest measure of success. Wedded At Preston. The home of Mrs. D. Anderson, Preston, was the scene of a very plea- sant ceremony, when her daughter, Miss Lily K., was united in marriage to Mr. Clarence B. McKeig of Galt. The bride looked charming in a cos- tume of cream voile over taffeta, and carried a bouquet of bridal roses and lilies of the valley. She was given a way by her brother, Elgin Anderson. Miss Marie Anderson admirably filled the role of bridesmaid, in a very be- coming costume of crepe-de-chene, trimmed with silk and valenciennes lace. She carried a bouquet of pink roses. The bridegroom was assisted by Mr, John Thomson. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr. Johnston, pastor of the King St. Presbyterian church. The wedding march was artistically played by Miss Elma Nix, who also sang in a pleasing manner, "Oh, promise me," while the register was being signed. After the cere- mony, the guests retired to the dining room where breakfast was served. Among the toasts were, "The bride," aptly referred to as the Queen of that beautiful realm called Horne. This was suitably responded to by the bridegroom. The usual toast list was shortened by the early departure of the happy pair on the 9.45 train for points north, where they intend spend- ing the honeymoon. The presents were numerous and beautiful. Their friends unite in wishing the young people many years of wedded happi- ness. On their return they will reside in Galt. The groom was the recipient of a handsome sideboard, accompanied by an address, from his fellow em- ployees at Scott & Bennett's.

Last 'week the Sabbath Observance Bill was before the Dominion Parlia- ment and met with considerable oppo- sition, especially from Quebec mem- bers, some of whom were very pro- nounced in their action against the Bill. We notice from the Ottawa pa- pers that Dr. Chisholm, M.P. for East Huron, gave an excellent speech on the question. The Ottawa Citizen says :-- Dr. Chisholm of East Huron said: "While both sides of the house were fairly well agreed in regard to the general principle of Sabbath obser- vance, the difficulty appeared to be in meeting various local and other conditions. The general agreement was shown when Mr. Oockshutt se- conded the amendment of Mr, Bon- rassa, Had the hill been properly drafted it would have embraced a principle as -broad in its application as the spirit it ilius indicated, It appeals to me that the bill has far too many details, too many clauses and too many exceptions. It is im- properly drafted. It is like an at- tempt to bnild a house from the top intend of from the bottom. The bill ehould have a great deal more elasticity. It should be so consti- tuted, so framed, as to cortnnand the respect and support of the public and of the local authorities in the different parts of the Dominion. For after all they are the parties who must enforce and administer this law if it is not to become a dead letter." After referring to the diffi- culty of legislating in such a matter o vastin extent and forte country s , , whose population is so varied in race and Breed, Dr. Chisholm said :—"I believe the bill should be so drafted ns to.suit the different provinces. I am perfectly sure that in the part of Ontario which I have the honor to represent, the people will never be satisfied with a. Lord's Day bill that actually legalizes and permits games of baseball, cricket, football, golf, hockey and the like on Sunday. For my past, I would like to see this legislation kept as near to the fourth con iniindntent as (possible. 17et in the enforcement of Sunday observ- ance, regard Khonid be lrtul to local opinion and local custom. The races and peoples who kept one day of rest tit the seven had nutde the greatest physical and moral ad- vancement, He would support the the bill on the principle that half a . loaf is better than no bream. The Advance will give Dia (`hishohn's speech in full in next issue. 1V'oares.--Ella May (Leary) Bond. my wife, staving left my bed and board all persons are hereby notified, that i will refuse to be responsible for debts incurred by her after this date July 4th, 1900, Signed -4. P. Bona, Toronto. Matrimonial Event, A happy assemblage of intimate friends gathered in Orangeville, on Thursday last at a borne of and Tir d y th h n Air. Mrs. Samuet Crozier, to witness the marriage ceremony of their youngest daughter, Miss Winnifred, to Dr, W. J. Price, of Wingham. The ceremony took place in the beautifully`-decorat- ecl parlor, and was performed by Rev, H. Crozier of Ashburn, uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev. J. Locke, of Orangeville. The bride was hand. somely dressed in white point d'es- pelt over white taffeta, with pearl trimmings. Her travelling suit was of green broad -cloth with French valenciennes lace trimmings. The ceremony took place at 5.30 and after a tastefully prepared wedding luncheon, the happy couple took the evening train for Wingham, where Dr. Price practises his profession. De. and Mrs, Price reside on Patrick street, in the house formerly occupied by Dr. Holloway. They commence life's voyage together under pleasant auspices. We trust that the voyage may be prosperous, with favoring breezes, touch sunshine, and but few storms, until the ocean's farther shore is safely reached. Maness—All recounts due to L. A.

Kennedy has met with suceesssul results in his efforts to es- tablish a Hospital in Wingham, and we understand that the amount neces- sary has been nearly all secured, and the prospects are that before many days the entire amount required for purchase of the building and fitting it up in first-class style, will have been provided by our leading citizens. Dr. Kennedy has been encouraged also by citizens who, though not shareholders, are taking an interest in the matter and assisting in the furnishing of rooms. Wingham is an excellent cen- tre; the building (on which option is held) is substantial, and with some changes can be fitted up so as to be convenient for the purpose, while the location is most suitable. One pleas- ing feature, that augurs success, is the fact that the medical men of town are practically unanimous in supporting the project, and we believe the estab- lishment of the Hospital will be suc- cessfully accomplished. A meeting of the subscribers is called for Tuesday evening next, July 10th, in the Coun- cil Chamber, at 8.30, to appoint provi- sional Directors and transact such other business as may he necessary, in connection with the organization of the Board of Directors. There ap- pears to be no reason why Wingham Hospital should not be one of the best. Silk Grenadines in Black, worth in the regular way $2.25 per yard, are on sale for a few days at D. M.

The following is from the Dutton correspondent of the St. Thomas Evening Journal :—"Mr. J. A. Taylor, B. A., who for the past six years has held the position as principal of the High School in Dutton, has fully de- cided to accept the principalship of the Wingham High School. Mr. Tay- lor has for about eight years been a citizen of this place, and during that time he has Iron a warm place in the hearts of the people here. Apart from his professional work he has always taken an active and prominent part in all matters pertaining to the general welfare of the community. During his term as principal, the High school has greatly prospered, as a perusal of the figures readily shows :—The atten- dance has increased from 75 to 177 pupils now attending from all the neighboring counties, some in fact coming from the county of Huron ; the following have passed the various examinations, junior leaving, 103, junior matriculation 58, senior leav- ing, parts I. and II, 07, including 71 with first -clash honors ; scholarships to the value of nearly $3,000 were won, of which nearly $1,500 went to students in Mr. Taylor's department-- seieuce. The school has ono of the largest fourth forums in the province Too much honor cannot be accorded Taylor who has labored so dili- gently and faithfully to elevate the institution to its present degree of ex- cellence. As ft slight token of the es- teem in which he is held by the stn.. dents, the four forms assembled on Friday afternoon and presented Mt. Taylot with a handunne bookcase and set'retary, , quartered oak, the gift be- ing accompanied by an tuldreas. Mr. Taylor suitably replied, expt'essing his sorrow in severing his connection with the school, evening them that the past six years were the brightest in his experience as a teacher and that they would ever be cherished in his memory as the most pleasant period of his life: Addresses were also given by Mr, E. J. Wethey, B. A., Payne, 11 A., a former principal, and Rev..3, W. Mann, all speaking in glowing words of the suecess of the school, and paying the highest tribute to the retiring principal. The New Pastor. Rev W, G. Rowson, the new pastor of Wingham Methodist Church, began hisfor e here onSunday5 pas at e last, and thongh weary with moving, and hay. ing been under no small nervous strain for some time, he fully met the expec, talons of his congregations. The morning discourse was not based on any particular passage of scripture, - bnt was rather an informal address on the relations existing between pastor and people, and was full of helpful suggestions. The address seemed to bring the congregation at once into close touch with thein pastor, who as- sured there that his sympathy and help were always available for them by day or night. In the evening Mr. Howson chose as his text—I Corinthi- ans, 8:9 --"Tor ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, yet for your sakes He be- came poor, that ye through His pover- ty might be rich," The speaker spent but a moment or so in introducing his subject, and then noted: 1—The riches of our Lord prior to his incarnation. 2—His poverty while on earth. 8— The results—that we might be rich. The sermon was listened to most at- tentively, and, judging from the tear - dimmed eyes seen in the congregation and the remarks passed afterwards, Mr. Howson has every reason to be encouraged by the reception of his first day's work in Wingltanl. If we are not mistaken, his ministry will prove a spiritual uplift to the congre- gation, 'Wingham Methodist Church has a number of faithful workers, and the new pastor nifty rest assured of their sympathy and hearty co-opera- tion. Mr. Howson will be absent four Sundays in July, and his pulpit will be supplied by Rev. W, E. McNiven, of tate Hamilton •Conference, who comes well recommended. Mr. How- son expects to resume his work here on the first Sunday in August. SPECIAL BARGAINS in Chatelaines, reduced to 59c and 25c ; on sale on Saturday at 10 a.m., at Mason's Fair.
