Oddfellows Sermon 1 Hours a. m. to 7 p. m. 1)IL MAS ARRIVE. Afew years ago several wealthy capitalists of Montreal and other places formed themselves into a company for the purpose of buying up all the cotton mills of the Dominion. They worked quietly but steadily; mill after mill fell into their hands, and about a month ago after an expenditure of about five million dollars, their desire was' accomplished. Of course these men had an obiect in view, and that ob- ject has been shown in the immediate advance in the price of all kinds of cotton goods. They control the entire output of these mills They are Practically without opposition ; they rule the market. The advance may not be felt by the consumer for some little, as many of the retail merchants, anticipating what was coming, laid in large stocks at the old price, and 'competition is keen enough to keep down the prices till these stocks have to be replaced, when they are bound to go up. We desire here to inform our customeas that we are among the fortunate ones in having on hand a large stdck of white and grey cottons, cottonades, shirtings, jeans, linings,tickings etc., and wilt thus be enabled to give our friends the benefit of our foresight. We have also laid in a large stock of overalls and shirts of all kinds, from the cotton check up to the fine flannel and white dress. Try us for gents furnishings in general.

Annual meeting The annual meeting of the members of the Lucknow Mechanies Institute will be held on Monday evening, May 2nd; at eight o'clock, for the purpose of hearing the annual report ,of the Directors, election of officers and other important business. Let there be a a full attendance of the members. Early closing We understand a movement is being agitated amons, our merchants to have their places of business closed at seven, o'clock each evening. except • Saturday when they are<to be closed at nine o'clock. This would afford the purchasing public ample time to do their shopping, and at the same time allow the merchants and their assis- tants a few hours to themselves for recreation. It should be adopted. Lacrosse Meeting .• A meeting of the "Sepoy" Lacrosse club was held in town hall on Monday evening last when the following officers were elected for the year 1892: —Von. President, D. E. Cameron; Hon. Vice -Presidents, James Bryan and A. S. Campbell ; President, J. Murchison; Vice -President, M. Camp- bell, Jr. ; Captain, Geo. Johnston; Secrecary,.D. M. Lawrence; Treasurer, J. Jewitt; Managing Committee, W. R. Hernell aud Tim Kirk. Do Unto Others, Etc. There is a scrap of law that may not be familiar to a great many. "A finder of property is compelled to make diligent enquiry for the owner thereof, and to restore them. If on finding the property, he attempts to conceal such fact he may be prosecuted for larceny." The safest way, when you find anything, is to advertise the article in the columns of a local news- paper. • The loser will gladly pay the necessary expenses, and perhaps reward you beside. The At Home The "At Home" held in the town hall on Thursday evening last, under the auspicesof the, W:.C. T. U., and was in every way, a success. The presi- dent, Mrs. W. H. Smith, occupied the chair, and although it was her first appearance in that capacity, she did her part remarkably wel • he •choruses 'by the boys" we e t ell rendered. • Miss Lalla Berry sang a, solo with her usual ability and we regret that her sweet voice will soon be missed from our •midst. Miss Libbie McDonald gave a fine temper- ance recitation and bids fair to become a reciter of more than ordinary merit. Miss Laura Berry gave a recitation showing how soon the use of strong drink takes away fine farms and stately homes, which was muCh ap- preciated. Miss Minnie Greer gave a recitation entitled "I've drank the last glass" with much feeling. •The diietts given by Mr. Hamly and Smith were well . executed and received merited applause. Mr. R. D. Cameron as usual interested the audience with a fine temperance read- ing: George Douglas was 'in good voice and gave the old Turnkey, which was well received. Mr. J. G. Murdoeh closed the programme with a stirring address and seemed to impress on the people that if women , had the ballot in their hands the dawn of prohibition would soon be ushered in. Mrs. J. W. Armstrong and Edith Smith were accompanists for the evening. The meeting closed with the national anthem. Proceeds aniOunted to over 810. The members of the union are very . grateful" to those who assisted at the "At Home."7—Cosi, —An important clause in the Liquor License Act renders any person who, after notice, gives, purchases for dr sells to habitual drunkards any liquor, liable to imprisonment for not less thalMeitilSts-Thrtiffirlrilifftreiirf Owing to the continued illness of - the Re'. J. W.Conners, of the Episco- pal church, the Oddfellows of the village will attend divine services at the Methodist church on Sunday morning next, 24th inst., at 11 o'clock. The brethern will assemble in the Lodge room at half past ten and march in a body to the church. All Oddfellows whether connected with the local lodge or not, are cordially invited to attend and take part in the services. Foot Ball at Kincardine The chief feature of the holiday in Kincardine on Friday last was a foot- ball match between the team of that town and the Luck -now Sepoy club. The.game commenced at 2:30 o'clock and for the first hour and a half neither sides had put the ball through the goal, although both teams played almost with desperation. At the ex- piration of the time, it was mutually agreed by both clubs to play another twenty Minutes longer, and these twenty minutes decided the fate of,the game, the result being that the Luck - now boys secured one goal, and the Kincardine team having nothing to mark on the score card. The game from start to finish was well contested, both clubs evidently doing their best. The player who shot the ball through through the goal was D. McDonald. The Lucknow boys speak in high terms of the <treatment they received at the hands of their lakeside opponents. LOCAL PARAGRAPHS. Newsy Items S erred up for Sentinel Readers —Mrs. W. H.
