SERVICES RECOGNISED. —M r . J. R.
Adams and family, who have been resi-
dents for many years in Egmondville,
having removed to Wiugham, the ladies
of the Egmondvilie Auxiliary of the
Women's Foreign Missionary Associa-
tion, wishing to express their apprecia-
tion of Mrs. Adams services in connec-
tion with the Auxiliary, at a recent
meeting adopted the following compli-
mentary resolution, which speaks for
itself : That a hearty vote of thanks
be tendered to Mrs.J. R. Adams on her
departure from among us, for the able
manner in which she assisted at all times
in performing the duties in connection
with the meetings of our society. Also
that we deeply regret her sdeparture
from among us, and express the fervent
hope that she may be long spared to as-
sist in carrying on the good work in her
new field of labor. This is the earnest
and prayerful desire of all our mem-
bers.
ST. JAMES' CHURCH PIC-NIC.—Owing
to other attractions in the surrounding
towns and villagee, the phonic under the
auspices of St. James' Roman Catholic
Church, on Dominion Day, was not so
largely attended as similar events on
some former yews. There was, how-
ever, a very fair representation. The
weather was favorable, and there was
ample amusement for both old and
young, and all seemed to enjoy them-
selves immensely. The refreshments,
• provided by the ladies, were in abund-
-awe and of the very best quality. There
was a competition for a gold headed
• cane between Doctors Campbell and
Bethune. This created considerable
interest, and when the votes were count-
ed it was found that the former gentle-
man was the winner of the cane by a good
majority. Both gentlemen delivered
neat and appropriate addresses. Rev.
Father Cook, the pastor of the congre-
gation'kept a watchful eye over all,
while his pleasant smile and affable
greeting made each one with whom he
came in contact feel quite at home.
SEAFORTH ON DOMINION DAY.—Sea-
forth scored a splendid record on Do-
minion Day. The Huron foot ball club
won the Championship of Canada on
the Recreation Grounds, in this town.
The Senior Beaver _lacrosse club went
to Brantford to play their first match
in the Western District Series for the
Championship, and succeeded in van-
quishing the club of that city by a
score of four goals to two. This also
was accomplished with an incomplete
team, eeveral of their best players
being otherwise engaged they had to
draft six players from the Junior Club.
The Junior Beavers went to Goderich
and played a match with the club of
that town. They, however, did not fare
so well, the home team having got four
goads to none. But this is not to be
wondered at, as six of their best players
went to Brantford with the seniors, and
they had to make up their team as best
they. could. At Brussels Mr. Alex.
Winter won firat place in the two mile
bicycle race, and Mr. D. Devereaux
took first in the one mile bicycle race,
and both gentlemen rode on their
bicycles from here to Brussels the same
morning. We have not heard of any
further triumphs, but this is a good
enough record for one day.
DEATH OF MR. JOHN TIARGAN.—
Mr. John Hargan, who has been market
clerk in this town for several years, died
on Sunday last. Mr. Hargan has been a
aufferer from Bright's disease for severest
years, but was always able to be around
attending to his business until two
weeks ago*Jast Saturday, when he was
prostrated by a severe attack of inflam-
mation to which he succumbed after
much patient suffering. Mr. Hargan
was only 48 years of age. He was the
eldest son of the late John Hargan. He
was a native of the County of Hastings,
&rid with other members of his family he
came to Huron about fourteen years ago.
Mr. Elargan purchased a farm in the
township of McKillop, on which he re-
sided until about five years ago, when
failing health induced him to sell the
farm and remove into town where he

- For a feve mi utes after the kick-off
the visitore pr seed the Scote, making
two or three dal
ngerous attacks on goal.
These raide wept followed by occasional
rushes at the other end of the field
by the Scots' right wing men who were
playing admirebly. They were, how-
ever, in every ease cheoked closely and
persistently by Jackson and Willis. At
sitions the home players Were slightly
assisted by the breeze. This was not
sufficient to enable them to penetiate to
the northern goal. Rushes were made
on either side, but in each !instance the
effort 'proved futile. A shot made by
W. McDonald on the Scotegoal had for
a time an ominous tendency, but by a
remarkable move on the part of Mc-
Donald, the Scott' goal keeper, the
sphere went over the line, resulting in
a goal kick. Almost immediately after
this W. McDonald got another chance
and shot straight into the Scots' goal-
keeper's hands, but -before he had time
to dispose of the bell Smith had forced
him and the ball both through. The
game now stood two to nothing in favor
of Seaforth, but it was not until the
visitors had placed another point to
their credit that the Scots were able to
draw themselves together and urge the
contest. In the third game the Hurons
made the Scots play a defensive game
pretty much around their goal. Several
shots were made, but McDonald pre-
served his goal splendidly. The strain
was too much for him when a foul was
made just before the goal by Arnot,who
threw up his hand and stopped the bath'
The foul was quickly taken advantage of
by Dewar, who passed to Killoran and
from his foot the ball flew through the
goal. It was a swift and well -directed
shot, and made the game almost sure for
the Hurons. The Scots now took an ag-
greseive part in the game and forced
the play to the finish. Although it was
an up hill fight they did great work,and
made a better showing than at any other
-period during the match. A swift run
was made, chiefly managed by Manison,
• who, after dodging and eluding his
checks, passed to Norrie McCallum on
the left. That promising young player
shot quickly, and scored the first and
only goal for the Scots. Time, 30 min-
utes, The remainder of the game was
fast and exciting, but neither side suc-
ceeded in scoring.
For the Scots probably Manison and
MeWhirter on the right, Reid at back,
and Paterson at half did the most praise-
worthy playing, Arnot Made some ex-
cellent plays, but was never at his
beet. Edmonds' long throws in were as
usual features of the game.
For the visitors every men of the for-
wards did great work, and it would be
invidious to particularize. The combina-
tmio
irnplay of the team w s much ad -
ed. '
It is said that the g me was one
of the beet ever seen ip! Canada and
much superior to that in wlhich Seaforth
defeated Chicago last month. The
game of Saturday is said to compare fa-
vorably with the match between Sea -
,forth and Detroit on May 23rd, when
the former team defeated the Michigan -
dere by two goals to one. The Scots
did not put up nearly as OLIO a game
as did the Detroits, and consequently
the Hurons were not used p at the close
of the match. It was a v ry gentleman-
ly game throughout, few ouls, no acci-
dents to speak of, and th general opinn
ion was that the Hurons had won on
their merits.
The Toronto Empire makes the fol-
lowing reference to the Seaforth players:
For. the Hurons, Sloan in goal is a
stranger to Toronto, but is smart in his
movements and will develop into a good
man. Willie and McDoneld both kick-
ed with steadiness, and leovered their
goal several times in the nick of time.
At half Jackson worked with great
energy and fed his 'wings splendidly,
Stephens is a new men also to Toronto,
but is a nice, gentlemanly player. Liv-
ingeton, although slightly crippled, waa
of great service to his team and a niaer
half -beck line than the litirons' could
not be wished for. On the left Craw-
ford made some fine indieidual efforte.
Smith is about the best forward on the
Seaforth line, a neat dribbler and a sure
shot on goal. W. McDonald made a
most favorable impression in centre, his
passing to the wings being marked by
judgment. Killoran is a vastly im-
proved player since his lest appearance
in Toronto, and the confidence he show-
ed on Saturday affected the play of the
whole forward line. As for Dewar he
is too well-known to req ire any news-
paper remarks. His pl y on Saturday
was as usual, iiPeedy, anI whenever he
got theball made good u e of it.

was filled by a most intell'gent audience
t
of ladies and gentlemen. • The chair was

The closing _,Football n&toh for the
Championship of Canada was playe 'on
the Recreation grounds in Seafort on
Wednesday, between the Hurons of
Seaforth, and the Scots of Toronto. The
match resulted in two Oils to none for
the Hurons. The Hurons have thus beat-
en the Scots in the twq matches by 5
goals to 1. The Hurons therefore occu-
py the proud position of being the
Champions of the Western District,
which includes Detroit, and also the
Champions of Canadai The arrange-
ment for nompetition is this: There are
two districts, the Western District and
the Toronto district. The clubs of each
district play for the championship of
their respective districts!, and the two
chainpiou clubs play two matches for
the championship of Canada, the club
getting the largest number of goals in
the two matches holding the champion-
ship for the season. This season, the
Hurons won the championsuip of the
Western district, and the Scots of the
Toronto district, and the two champions
playing off, the Hurons Won the final
championship by a score Of 5 to 1, which
is the best score ever reeorded by any
club. The Scots held th championship
last year.
The match on Wednes ay was one of -
the keenest and most i teresting ever
seen in Canada, and the laying *as of
the inost scientific orde . It was wit-
ness ' d by about fifteen h ndred people.
There was a strong side lind,which was
somewhat troublesome, but otherwise
the weather was faultlesii. Both clubs
did their very best,buttlie Hurons kept
the lead from the first. elks a club they
are, decidedly, the best players. They
play better together and in a goal scrim -
_page are more activelnd sharper to
p
'take advantage of their osition. The
'Scots, however,are a good1 club and they
have several magnitheiit individual
players. They seem to e a very gen-
tlemanly lot of fe1lows and took their
defeat with the best of good grace.
There was not an uni)leasant word
spoken during the match and the very
best of good feeling appeared to pre-
vail between the membells of the two
clubs, although they were contending so
hard against each other. It is no ordi-
nary honor the Seaforth aoys have won
for themselves and their 1 town, and all
are proud of and congratulate them on
their success. It would be difficult to
find a more gentlemanly or well-behaved
lot of young men. They have. conduct-
ed themselvel creditably, in every re-
