The musicale given in Willis church 00 the evening of 'Thanksgiv- ing Day was well attended and most enjoyable. The program consisted of several beautiful selections by Prof, Bristowe, vocal solos by Miss- es Roles and Arlin, and ;Mr. Dowd- ing and Dr. Gaudier, and a violin selection by „Miss : Gertrude, Chant, Quite a number took ad- vantage of the opportunity of spend- ing the soft twilight hour in list- ening to sweet and soothing music. from . skilfully handled instruments and well trained voices, and the first musicale given in Clinton was a decided success. It will :probably become a popular form of enter- tainment. The church was softly lighted and prettily decorated,. RETAINS AN ACTIVE INTEREST We have before us a copy of the annual report of 'Trinity Methodist church 'I'orohto, for 1011, which is evidently One of the larger churches of the city, for the total amount raised for church purposes was over $35,000, of which nearly $11,000 was for missions. A former Clintonian evidently retains his active interest in church affairs, for the name of Mr. 11014. Holmes figures in the re- port as a local preachsee, claps lead- er district visitor,member ofthe- missionary ,th • missionar1 and church Calendar c 0,tnj ua l t, t e e s, chairman of the, finance: committee, member of the quarterly board, and tach of i teacherthe young o men's Bible Y g class in the Sunday school. That should be enough to keep him out of mischief. CHICKENS GALORE.. There are chickens galore down at the Gunn, Langlois plaint there be- ing ' now no less than 2432 feeding on the second floor with daily arrivals that will soon swell the number to 5000 on the two floors. This semis a large number to have on hand at one tine but the Gunn, Langlois peo- ple do things on a large scale. These chickens are being bought all over the county, the Company hay-. ing representatives at susch distant points as Lucicnow, Dungannon and Blyth on the north, Dublin and Sea - forth on the east and Exeter, TIen- sall and Zurich on the south. From tihe fact that the majority of the chickens now in stock are Bar- red Rocks it night easily he inferred that the Rocks are the popular breed in this county. Mr. A. W.

Walkerton is about to sec ,.'ne sol- ving of an old mystery which 'con- cerns the. burial of John Haag, the oSIy murderer over hanged in Bruce. The. tale is as sensational as the escape from the Paris tombs of Jean Valjean. In February, 1808, it seems, a man named Stephen Neu- beeker while returning from Seaforth with the proceeds from a load of grain lie had .sold, was robbed and murdered near: Formosa, by a man who jumped on to his sleigh and bat- tered his head with a club. Jelin HHTaag was `convicted of the cringe and hanged on December 15. After be- ing taken from the gallows, the body was pieced in a coh'in and given to G•eeson,i caretaker of the cemetery, for burial Several years after- wards the sexton told that the rope had never dons its work, and that the body had conte into his hands alive, iTe stoutly main- tained that an empty. casket was lowered into the grave and that the supposed corpse walked out of the cemetery. The murderer is alleged, to have been seen afterwards tending bar in a Detroit saloon, 'l'he- pre - posed • ro-posed, sale of the old burial ground to A. E. Sherrington whose farm_ it abuts, and the consequent order tihat has gone forth for •the removal of the bodies interred, there, will afield • -ea, "opportunity to discover what cred- ence d- enee can belaced p r 1 in the old sex- ton's story, Personals Mr. Gus.
