Happily Wedded.
A quiet home weddin • was the at-
traction at the home of Mrs. Stoller,
on Tuesday last, when her youngest
daughter, Miss Martha, became the
bride of Mr. Alex. Porter. Both tiro
parties to the marriage contract are
residents of town and enjoy_ the es.
teem of the community. The mar-
riage ceremony was performed by
Rev, W. Lowe at High noon. The
happy couple were unattended, and
only the immediate friends of bride
and groom witnessed the interesting
ceremony. The bride wore a neat
travelling suit of navy blue, and re-
ceived many tangible evidences of
esteem by way of presents from her
friends. After a tasty wedding re-
past, Me. and Mrs. Porter left for a
trip to Toronto and Coliingwood. On
their return they will reside on Minnie
street. Many friends hope that their
Toys may he many and their sorrows
few.
Landslide At Goderich.
A big landslide occurred on Mon-
day morning on the north bank of the
Maitland River et Goderich, where
the contractors for the work on the
Guelph and Goclei•ieh Railway have a
large steam shovel at work. Seven
clump cars were thrown off the track,
and rolled to the river bed below, a
distance of about 00 feet, and the
rear end of the shovel was smashed.
Two rasa were on the shovel at the
time, but saved themselves by jump-
ing., and most of the other men were
a short distance up the track, clearing
it of some earth that broke away from
the bank yesterday, or they might
have been buried nuder the heavy
mass of clay and sand. The slides ex-
tend a distance of about 200 feet along
the bank, and no doubt the cons
tinuons rains of Sunday had some-
thing to do with the loosening of the
earth. The most serious aspect of the
mishap is the loss of time that the
clearing of the track will entail.

Mrs. Flack's Death.
The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. 3,
A. Fleck, formerly of Wingham will
sincerely regret to hear of the death
of Mrs. Flack, which took place an
September 13th, at the home of her
son, in Claresholm, Alberta. Mrs,
Flack was one of Wingban's earliest
settlers ; her maiden name was Miss
Goss. She was at devoted cheistian
woman, a true help-ntate for her hus-
band, who in the early settlement of
this so tion of conntr was elcone
d
by the settlers, as, after
a week of
toil, be went forth on Sunday to
pewit the gospel. Mrs. Flack was
one of the four members that formed
the first Alethoclist Class in Wingham,
and hence with her tow bereaved hus-
band, was one of those who helped to
lacy the foundations of Methodism in
this vicinity. A few Months ago, she
retnoved with her husha.ue to Olnres-
hobn, to reside with their son, and
since then hats not enjoyed good
health, She passed away on Septem-
ber 13th, leaving a bright testimony
behind her ; interment took place on
Sept. 15th, Mrs, Finck was in her
72nd year. Mr, Flack has the sym-
patthy of his Wingham. friends, and
they are many.
Lacrosse Season Over.
So far as the Maple Leafs are con-
cerned, the lacrosse season of 1905 is
at an end. Both the team and its
supporters have every reason to feel
gratified at the splendid record which
the boys in green and white have
made. When it is considered that•
lacrosse is comparatively a neve game
in Wingham, the tearn certainly de-
serves credit for the season's record.
Out of seventeen games played, they
only lost four; forty goals were scored
against them, but ninety-three stand
to their credit. From the goal keeper
to the inside house, every player play
ed clean, scietrtific lacrosse. Johnston

Accident At Belgrave.
An unfortunate accident occurred
at Belgrave station on Wednesday
morning of this week. As the freight
train from Wingham to London was
passing through, Mr. Edward Bryaus
of Mortis *as approaching the cross-
ing, with a fine team, and a load of
chop on his waggon. Tho train hav-
ing no freight to take on, was passing
right through Belgrave, without stop-
ping, Whether Mr, Bryans failed to
hear the whistle, or expected the train
to stop, or whether his horses became
unmanageable, is not known, but the
engine struck his waggon, knocking
it to splinters and throwing Mr. Bry-
ans a distance of nearly fifty feet. He
was picked up unconscious and at
time of writing it is not known whe-
ther the injures will prove fatal or
not. The hind wheels of the waggon
were found a hundred feet away, and
the horses ran away with the rem-
nants of the waggon attached. It was
it most unfortunate accident but it is
still hopecl that Dir. Bryan's injuries
may not prove fatal.

Mt. Forest Beat Wingham.
Over one hundred lacrosse enthu-
siasts, including quite it number of
laulirs, journeyed to Mt. Forest by
special train last Friday, and wit-
nessed the defeat of the .Maple Leafs
in the Feconti, round of the semi-flea}s.
The following report of the ,match is
taken front one of the Toronto (lefties ;
The score was 5 to 2 hi the home
tean)'s favor, and as Wingham won
on their own grounds in the flt'st game
by only 8 to 1, tbe Lornes win the
round by one goal. The match was
well played by both teams, and was
clean end free from roughness, when
the speed with which the teams
worked is considered. None of the
players were injured and Referee A.
Steele of Fergus found it necessary to
penalize only about eight 'nen for
minor offences, the teams suffering
equally in that respect, all of which
speaks well for the fairness of the
referee, who kept the game under con-
trol throughout and gave good satis-
faction, Wingham bas a well-bal-
anced teani and up to the hast quarter
they managed to maintain a lead of
one goal on the round, but at this
stage they made the mistake of at-
temptinga block game, and the Lornes
scored twice, winning out a nip -and -
tuck match a feiv minutes before time
was np. The match from a spectator's
point of view was one of the best ever
seen here. The Maple Leafs scored
the first goal in the first quarter, the
Lornes tieing before the quarter was
up. Neither team scored in the sec-
ond quarter. The Lornes took the
lead in the third, scoring two, the
visitors getting one. The last period
saw the Maple Leafs cut out, while
the Lornes added the necessary two
to win the round. Following is the

Presentations To Rural Dean Lowe.
Rev. Wm. Lowe, who for neatly ten
years has been the faithful and ener-
getic Rector of St. Pant's, has severed
his connection with this parish and
removed.
to London. As the Advance
has before remarked, not only the
congregation of St. Paul's, but mem-
bers of other churches sincerely regret
his removal and only hope that a
worthy successor for Mr. Lowe will
be• available.
On Saturday morning, the Rural
Dean was waited upon at the Rectory
by Messrs. John Robinson, James H.
Kerr and A. E. Smith in a quiet and
informal way. Mr. Kerr, in well-
chosen words, explained the object of
their visit, which was on behalf of the
congregation to present Mr, Lowe
with a purse of one hundred dollars.
Mr. Lowe was touched by this addi-

Presentation To Rev. J. N. McLean, B.A,
Thursday evening was pleasantly
spent by members of the Baptist
Church, and a couple of hours passed
pleasantly and quickly by. It bad
been known for some time that the
pastor was about to leave Wingham,
enol this was considered a suitable
time for the congregation to express
their appreciation of the services ren-
dered by Mr. McLean, during his
pastorate.
Mr. P, Fisher was called to the
Chair, and at a suitable stage in the
programme, the following address
was read by Mr. Browett, and Mrs.
Alex. Kelly on behalf of the congre-
gation, handed Mr. McLean a betted -
fel Gold Watch.
To Rev. J. N. McLean, B.A., Pastor
Wingham Baptist Church.
Dear Pastor :—Tile members of
Wingham Baptist Church and congre-
gation, on the eve of your departure
from among us, desire to convey to
you an expression of our appreciation
of your zealous life and work while
with us. Year high and commend-
able object in further preparing theyour-
self for
ministry of Christ, we
acknowledge and appreciate; and,
knowing that this is the reason of
decision to sever your connection with
ns, reconciles as, to a certain extent at •
least, to the loss we feel we are to
sustain by your departure. During
the two years you have been our pas-
tor, we have seen the church cleared
of debt, and become self supporting,
while contributions to missions have
been largely increased. The Sunday
School and all work among the child-
ren and young people bas been very
near to your heart. As a result of
your labors, we have had the great
joy of seeing precious souls brought to
a saving knowledge of their Lord and
Saviour, while many more, we be-
lieve, have been spiritually impressed
by your faithful and earnest preach-
ing of the Gospel. We feel assured
that the sane earnestness, and the
same fidelity and devotion to the
Haste • s
r cause s which have character-
ized
h t '
i r 1 acte '-
ized all your Tabors here, will continue
to mark your future career, wherever
your lot he cast. We assure you that
the good wishes and loving remem-
brances of the \Vinghaant (Church and
congregation will follow you and your
estimable wife as you go from us,
while example and precepts of both,
will leave 0 good and lasting impree-
elan upon us. We would kindly ask
you to accept this slight, token of our
esteem, and trust that it may at
times call to your remembrance the
many happy and profitable days of
your Wingham pastorate.

tist Church and congregation this
