FRuDA1, Sept. 13. A.1 o'clock this morcing fire was discovered in Hodgen. Bros.' drygoods store. The alarm was wounded and witheut undue delay the Ore brigade was nn hand and doing good work. 1'be fire WAN chiefly on the second floor at the rear of the store and it threatened to spread to the build- ings closely adjoining. Fortunately there was very little wind, or the conflagration might easily have got beyond control. The men worked hard and the fare was confined to the Hndgens stole, which, however, was badly gutted. The costly stock of drygoods. carpets. fur., etc., was horned or ruined by the water poured upon it. By 3 o'clock the fire was under control. The roof is burned off the heck portion of the store. and the interior is more or leer turned, blist- ered or otherwise damaged. Four of the five plate gismo windows in the front of the second floor are broker]. It is supposed that the blaze must have started from an electric light wire. There had been no Ore in the store and everything was apparently all right when one of the clerks was in the store in the evening after closing - up time. 1t is impo.sihle at present to esti- mate the lose. The stock was worth about $45,000. There is insurance of $39.000 on the stock and 111100 on the fixtures. The building belongs to the Joseph Whitely estate.

THE HAMILTON VISIT. Rosiness Men of the Ambitious City Speed a Pew Hours in Town. The special train on the C. P. R. bringing the Hamilton business men's excursion arrived shortly after 7 o'clock this evening. It was scheduled to arrive at 6.80, but a breakdown of the motive power shortly after leaving Listowel caused a delay. It seas in- tended to give the visitore a drive of an hour or so about town and then to have sures speeches on the Square, followed by a luncbeun at Hotel Sun- set. On account of the late arrival of the train, however, it was necessary to cut down the program, and the visitors were simply given a short drive to the Square and then back to the hotel, the trip being made to auto- mobiles provided by some of the citi- zens. There were &brut sixty in the party. 1n addition to twenty -Ove membere of the 13th Regiment baud. After luncheon at Hotel Sunset there was a program of toasts and speeches, Mayor Reid presiding, and a very interesting time 1..0 spent. A report of the proceedings will be elven in next week's issue. About midnight the party took their train for the return to Hamilton. The 13th Regiment bend during the evening gave a delightful program on the Squat e. FALL FAIR NOTES. The Gederieh industrial Monday, Tues- day and Wednpday of Next Week. Thie has been a very busy week for all concerned in the fall fair work. En- tries are coming in freely from our own locality and from distant points also. The fame of the Exhibition is extending more widely each year. The directorate are succeeding very well with their efforts in securing amusing attractions, not only before the stand but in the Midway. Such old favorites as John'. glass blowers will be here, as well as many new features. The great pttraetion will be, of course, Power's performing elephants, well worth the price of admission alone. "The bit of the show" is wired from Ottawa, and in Toronto a tre- mendous sensation was caused by these very intelligent creatures. The weather conditions have fav- ored the rtpl fag of the apples and other fruits and the prospeeta for a good show of grapes are brighter far than a week ago. Intendingexhibitore should remem- her that the secretary will be found in the afternoons and evenings of Fri- day and Saturday at the office in the basement of the public library, where entries can be left and enquiries answered. • LOSES POSITION, COMMITS SUICIDE.

A number of Trustees' Associations have been formed in different parts of Ontario. It has been felt by many that a Trustees' Association for West Huron would give our schools an in- spiration and an uplift. With this ob- ject in view a few trustees met and de- cided to call a meeting to be held in the Collegiate institute, Goderieh, on Thursday, September 20th, comment ing at 1:30 p. no.. to tvbich all school trustees are invited, for the purpose of organizing a Trustees Association for this inspectorate. The announcement will he found on page 11 of the West Huron Teachers Institute program, a copy of which bas been sent to the teacher to he given to the secretary of the school board. It is only by united action that trustee* will secure three changes which they believe will bene- fit their children and their schools, If at least one representative from each whorl' board attende the meeting on the 18th inst. a strong Association may be formed whose influence will be felt to educational matters throughout Um district, and will give greater oni- foealty and satistsettoo is the 11r man - of the schools. ensherw contemplate with 04111111111111 the organisation of a trustee& Vie. a new ors in educe.
