CLEAN UP, -Mr, Editor-Decur Sir:
Is it not fully time bur authorities shou'al.
look after the back premises of our town?
Many ;of them are in a deplorably filthy
state, and the stench emanating from
them. is almost unendurable. During the
warm days this was very manifest. 'If
alloWed to continue, as at present, they
will be a nest of pestilence for the season.
CONCERT. -The concert to be given
under the management of Mr. '0. W.
Cline, for the benefit of the cricket dab
on Thursday evening next,promises to be
a grand affair. In addition to the local
musical talent of the tawn, the services
of the following _eminent vocalists haye
been secured : Mr. James Kennedy,corn-
ic ; Mr. Thomas Sheridan, soloist, • and
Mr. George Lee, Ma J.:11. Wood, the
popular elocutionist, will give ;several
readings. Those desiring to attend the
concert should secure tickets in time as
there will be e rush.
Pansoestfe-a-We notice the following
in a London paper : "Mr. A. S. Abbott
has received the gold medal which has
been awarded to Mr. WM. O'Connor,
M. A., for general proficiency as a high
school teacher'. It will be presehted at
the midsummer examinations, and will,
no doubt, be highly prized by Mr.
O'Connor, being as it is a mark of his
great ability:" Mr. O'Connor was for a
• time head master of the Seaforth public
• school, and his many friends in this
town will be glad to learn of his Con-
tinued advancement.
THE IRDITITOWN Pre-Nic. -The MAI -
town picnicon Dominion Day will be
held in MeCarin's grove, immediately op-
posite the cemetery. Proceedin e are --
pectecl to commence at 10 o'cloc shar
In the forenoon there will be a game ,of
base ball between the Silver Stars Of
Carronbrook and the Blue Stockings ,of
Sedarth, and in the afternoon a game
between the Hopefuls of the White School
House and the liaymakera of IriSlawsiel.
Holland's quadrille band has also been
engaged for the occasion. If the weather
be favorable, it is expected there will be
between one and two thousand p ople
attendance.
THE FlEter Or TUE SEASON.- r. Wen.
Campbell has kinclly presented s with
a basket of sti-awberries of this season's
growth.They are of u nus nallir large
size, are quite ripe and of delicioue flavor.
These are the first ripe strawberries vire
have seen or heard of in this section this
season, and they speak well not only for
Mr. Campbell's care and skill in Cultiva-
tion, but also for the climate and soil of
the north 'ward. Who wouldn't live in
the northward, if they could, ripe
•straWberrlefe can be produced thus; early ?
No wonder it id growing so rapidly, and
becoming such a favorite locality
which to locate handsome private resi-
dences, of which Mr. Campbell's ' is the
pioneer, and is by no means the least im-
posing.

ceeesWAY. -On Wednesday forenoon
last, about 10 o'clock, an old gentleman
from near Cromarty in the township of
Hibbert, whose name we could not learn,
was passing the railway station le this
town with a horse and buggy. As he
had got over the track an engine' gave _a
whistle, frightening the horse an caus-
ing it to run away. The man w s per -
fectly powerless to control the hc rse, it
being a large spirited animal, and it ran
up Main street at full speed, n til it
came nearly opposite Robertson Co.'s
hardware store, when it havi g, no
doubt, a fancy for cheap hardware tarri-
ed short in towards the sidewal , and
_ ran in between a wagon standing n the
street and the planks of the walk. The
front wheel of the bu on on side
struck the walk, and t e wheel du the
other side struck the wagon. The con-
cussion was so severe that the old gentle-
man was thrown headlong a distance of
about 10 feet on to the sidewalk, the
'
horse broke from the

checked, would have

great lover of pets, as tenderly nurs d

Whiteley had been a ay for some tin ,
and on his return th eagle was so ov `r-
joyed at seeing I hi. 'that he mad

The elder dog made dash at the eag le,

howling with pain.- -At this junctu
Mr. Whiteley though it was time for h

FATAL ACCIDENT. -On Thursday after-
noon, June, 15, a very painful and serious
accident occurred on the farm of Mr.
John Powell, Con. 6, Turnberry. Mr.
Powell had a number of men gathered
together for the purpose of raising a
'small frame shed. After the first bent
was up, and when about to raise the
second, mil 'account of not having the
first emir*, propped, it fell to the ground,
striking Me. James Hastings in the fall
and killing him instantly, besides hurt-
ing a number of others. One of the
beams of the bent fell across the breast of
Mr. Basting, smashings it to jelly. Mr.
Thomas Anderson was thrown quite a
piece from i the building and was badly
hurt, but is recovering rapidly under
medical treatment. Mr. Joseph Hig-
gins and Dougall Fraser were both 'Mut,
but only slightly in comparison with the
others. They are both recovering. We
think that such accidents asthis are
caused to a great extent through care-
lessiiess in not making everything secure.
This sad affair should be a•warning to
those who. attend raisings in future, and
should cause them to be far more care-
ful, Mr. Hastings was a native of Blen-
•
heim County of Oxford, and had been
up here on a visit to see his brother, Mr.
Wm. Hastings, of this township. The
corpse was taken on the cars to Blenheim
on Saturday last. He leaves a
large
circle of friends and relatives to mo rn
his loss.

ACCIDENT.- On , Tuesday evening of
last week, !Mr. Willows,of Morris, hitch-
ed one of his horses to a single horse wag-
on with the intention of taking Mie T.
Farrow inld his son to Bluevale, The
horse had never been hitched alone before
and was not accustomed to wear breech-
ing on its harness, and the result was
that whenever they began to go down
g rade, the animal kicked furiously, am sh-
mg the dashboard to splinters,
som of
he pieces striking Willows in the face.
Ir. Ferro*, seeing the danger he was in,
attempted to jump out of the rig, hut
missing his foot in some way, he fel on
the point of his shoulder between the fore
and hind *heels of the wagon, the hind
wheel paroling immediately over his rieck
I and bruising it. badly., Mr. Willows nd
the boy both jumped from the wagon hod
were but &lightly hurt. Mr, S. Or of
Morris, brought Mr. Farrow home in his
buggy. Medical aid was sent for to d ess
the wounds, and we are happy to ay
Mr. Ferro w is fast recovering. The wa on
was badly smashed and • the horse as
severely mit in the shoulder by a spli ter
from one of the broken shafts.
OPEN LODOE.-The open meetin4 of
Bluevale Lodge of Good Templars, held
in the temperance hall, Bluevale, on Wed-
nesday evening, June 14th, was a very
successful one. Notwithstanding Ithe
very heavei• rain that fell in th° fore art
of the evening, the hall was *ell filled.
Mr. Joseph -Leech was appointedeh ir-
man, which office he filled with credi to
himself and honor to the lodge. The ro-
gramme was a very lengthy o e con ist-
ing of speeches, dialogues recitations, nd
music, both vocal and marnmental, The
entertainment commenced about 8 o'cl ck
with music" from the choir, then iialogtes,
speeches and recitations in their ti4rn.
Dr. McDonald, of 'Wingham, deliver d a
very able and eloquent speech on the
evils of intemperance and the best m th-
od of obtaining a prohibitory law in n-
tario, so strong were his arguments tiat
when he spoke of bringing it to a el se,
the crowd cried, "go on go On l" The
singing of the choir was excellent, nd
was well encored by the audience. Mr.
Eggleston. of Bluevale'sang "Good-bye
John," in his usual first-class style and
was loudly enchored. On coming on the
platform the second time he sang, "York-
shire am," which MIS very amusing and,
brought forth peals of laughter from the
crowd. Before the; close the chairmani
said it Was their intention to hold another
ore long; we think the sooneelhe bet-
ter
if they all prove as successfill as the
. About ir o'clock the meeting wee
rought to a close with music from the
hoir, after which each left for their ree
pectiife places of :abode well satisfied4
with. the manner in which they had spent
he evening. I

BASE BALL. -A thatch game of base
ball took place on' Saturday last, Juno
17th, hetween the 'ball players of thig
place and Exeter, on the grounds of the
latter club, resulting in an easy victory
f2or ourboys, the score standing at thei
close, rucefidd 30; Exeter 12. At the
close f the sixth innings the score stood
2 to , in favor of Brucefield, at which
time the rain began . to fall, making the
latter part of the game somewhat nu+
pleasli t. ' In the meantime the Exetei,
club, aided by several overthrows, by the
ninth "linings, brought their total run
up to 12. The fielding was not at all,
brilliant on either aide, the difference in
the scores being principally attributable
to the difference in pitchers, the swift
pitching of Baird being seldom driven
out of the infield, while that of Hayden,
was severely punished. Below is the
score:
