Ross, of Wingham, was a guest of Mr. Henry Perkins, on Sunday last. Dr, and Mrs. Armstrong, of this vil- lage, spent Sunday last with friends in Wingham. Mr. H. Ellis has lately ilad a fine barn added to his property near the sawmill in this village. Mr. and Mrs. Leathorne, of Bluevale, spent Sunday last in Gorrie, the guests of Mr. I. Sanderson's family. Mrs. Mitchell, of Walkerton, has been visiting at the residence of Mr. I. San- derson, for a short time past. Miss Martha Graham, who has been in Stratford since April last, was home. J on a short visit over Sunday last. Every instrument in the Gorrie Brass Band is now filled and the boys are ar- ranging to purchase several .new ones. Mr. Laughie Campbell, of Teeswater, was in town this week. He reports doing an excellent hotel business in the terminus village. He was accom- panied on the trip by Mr. Battle, of Teeswater. On Monday last Mr. Geo. Perkins re- ceived a telegram from a _ Meaford jew- eler, offering him a situation, and -on the following morning he started by train for that place. He has fully. re- covered from his late indisposition. The grain harvest is nearly over and it is expected that the last of it will be got in this week. From all parts of the township come the most encourag- ing- reports and it is confidently ex- pected that the yield will be a very profitahle one. Rev. W. J. Brown, of Wisconsin, was in Gorrie on Tuesday afternoon, while enjoying a short holiday visit with the family of his father-in-law, Deputy- Reeve eputy-Reeve Johnston, at Redgrave. The rev, gentleman was a former Howick boy and his many friends are glad to see him again. The Gorrie foot=ball team went to Brussels on Saturday afternoon to play a game with the club in that village. It was at first arranged to have the game played here and an announcement to that effect was made in last week's GAZETTE, but the plans were altered on Friday so that our boys were the visitors instead. A very even, though some- what slow, game resulted in a victory for the Brussels team by 1 goal to 0, the Gorrie players being sadly out of prac- tise. One or two more matches are on the tapis. Howick voter's list this year contains the names of 1201 persons, 787 of whom are qualified to serve as jurors. The voters are divided up as follows : In Ward No. 1, 202 ; Ward 2, 188 ; No. 3, 230 ; No. 4, 207 ; No. 5, 199; No. 6,175. Under the old law,which only permitted 200 persons to vote in a division, at least three new divisions would have to be established in the township to serve the requirements of Howick this year. , The Mail says of Parker's Dye Works, Toronto i .i No longer is it necessary to give away, or sell for a trifling amount, the partly worn goods when they can be cleaned and dyed so as to present as good an appearance as new, and last double the time they would otherwise. This firm have now a most enviable reputation and are distinguished from other and less comptent dyers - by the fine work they turn out." We Cannot say any too much for R. Parker & Co., the well-known dyers, of Toronto., We advise our readers to lookrthrough their wardrobe and have their soiled or faded., garments cleaned or dyed to look like new. Agents : . A. B. Allison. Gerrie ; Jas - Fox, - Wroxeter ; H. C. Bell, Ford- . wick. Orders left at any of the above agencies will receive _prompt attention, Mrs. Jno. Stearnol is at present quite ill at her home in this village. Mrs. Wm. Green, of Harvey, Illinois, is visiting here this week and part of last. Division Court was held in Gorrie yesterday. The docket was ,not a heavy one. Seaforth carried a $14,000 by-law on Tuesday for the erection of a market and fire hall on Main St, Mrso tarry Days, of Lucknow, guest of her brother-in-law, strong, in Gorrie, this week. A foot -ball match will be played on Friday afternoon at Wingham between the Gorrie and Wingham clubs, Mr. Jas. Warrell sold a fine horse the other day to Mr. Jno Hooey, of Wrox- eter, for the handsome sum of $150. Mr. Frank Gilliland, of Linwood, spent Sunday last with the family of Mr. Richard Graham, just north of town. Miss 'Bessie Hemley, of Harriston, is the guest of her sister, Mrs. (Rev.) Brownlee. Another sister, Miss Edith, is expected to -day. Mrs. Alex. Walker, formerly of this village, has been here for a few weeks, on a visiting and business tr- . ;She returned to her home on Teeay. Mr. R. J. Freeborn, of Itivermay, a student at Huron College; London, took Rev. Mr. Brownlee's work on Sunday last, the latter gentleman being ill, Miss Hattie Walker took her de- parture from Gorrie, on the afternoon train last Thursday. A large number of her friends were at the station to bid her good-bye. Miss Walker intends to enjoy a holiday visit with relatives in and near Hamilton before taking a posit. tion in the Northwest. The union picnic held on Thursday last by the Wroxeter and Gorrie Eng- lish Church Sabbath Schools, in Dr. Smale's beautiful grove at Wroxeter, was a very pleasant affair. About 300 children and friends were in attendance, and the grounds were provided with every convenience for the enjoyment of all. An excellent picnic dinner was. served under the trees by the ladies and all seemed to take full enjoyment from the occasion. The Busy Gleaners of the Methodist church intend giving a garden party on Mr. Edward James' spacious grounds on the evening of Friday, September 2nd. A good programme will be rendered during the evening, An admission of 10c. will be charged at the gate. Re- freshments extra. Gate open at 6:80. +, Everybody invited. A good time may be expected. is the I Arm- Redgrare. Most of the farmers in this vicinity will finish their harvest this week. :Miss Margaret Allen, who has been dangerously ill for the past few weeks, is slowly recovering. Mr. Suttrell Pritchard, who has been visiting his parents and friends here- abouts, has returned to Bowmanville, where he has charge of the Ccngre ra- tional Church during his vacation. Mrs. McLellan, of Toronto, has been visiting at Mr. Richard Morrel's for the past few weeks. - Mr. Absalom Bacon had the misfor- tune to lose a colt. It is supposed that it slipped and hurt itself. It died inside of twenty-four hours after the accident. Rev. W. Brown, Muckwango, Wiscon- sin, occupied the pulpit of the Congre- gational Church here last Sabbath. The church was filled to the doors. Rev. Mr. Brown was formerly a Howick boy. Mr. Alex. Johnstone has been very ill with typhoid fever lately, but we are pleased to hear that he is now slowly recovering. Mr. Geo. S. Johnston,had the misfor- tuneto lose some outbuildings by fire one day last- week. How the fire orig- inated is a mystery. Wroxeter. Our village still has a large number of visitors within its border They are all welcome; Mr. Cameron, who was - so badly wounded by Johnstone week before last, is slowly improving, and his recovery is now hoped -for. - Mr. Alex. Gibson is, we are sorry to say, again prostrateddbby illness. Mr. John Hooey, our Horse King,_ made another large shipment to Mani- toba this week.-- - The Wroxeter oat meal mill is: being run night and day to keep up with, the demand for the popular brand manufac- tured here. Reeve Sanders is having the top of his large post office block re-coverel with an iron roofing. In shipping hogs last week Hamilton & Sanderson lost three porkers between the village and the station, the animals having died from the intense heat. s- Some sweet -toothed persons broke: Into an apairy in town the other even- ing and stole all the honey, which, we understand.) was a considerable amount. The union pic-nic hold here last week in Dr. Smale's grove came off very pleasantly. The charming little maid- ens from our sister villages looked very pretty, The country is over -run with apple buyers. That is just the way with all Canadian enterprises—they are stifled in their infancy by sheer aggression. [Well,. well ! such an item of news from an avowed anti -monopolist like our es- teemed correspondent!—En.] Tom, from the north, paid our village a purely business visit this week. An appropriate'placard for his horse would have been : "Hay wanted. Enquire within." LakeIet. Owing to the occasional absence, and at times being a little forgetful your correspondent has not been as -faithful as he would like. As everything has assumed a bright aspect now and prom- ises well for the success of a11, Lakelet will try to send forth its news every week in the future. Harvesting is booming here, and a bountiful one it is... Some who got an early start have finished, but thegreater number will require a week and a half to get through. The threshers, Scott & Brinkley, have done a lot of work around- here. Grain is yielding well, the result , giving gen- eral satisfaction to "employers, and_ em- ployed. Mr. McKinney -is also getting a new engine, and the spirit of rivalry ex- isting among them will doubtless pro- duce fast and cheap work. To -night (Monday) intelligence has reached here to the effect that Willie, a son of Mr. Adani Scott, broke his arm by falling off a load of pease. We can- not elaborate as our information is limo ited, but we know that he went to Clif- ford to get the fracture attended to. Saturday's dailies,.containing a list of the successful candidates at the mid- summer examination conveyed -glad tid- ings to our two students, Miss .Escott and Mr. Bert Dulmage, whose names were among the successful lot. .. When we -consider the age, the time of attend- anceand the number slaughtered in the Province, our two deserve credit for the success attending them. We think it is their intention to resume their studies and next year worry the leaving exam- inations. Applications for carrying the mail to and from Lakelet and Clifford were re- ceived at Ottawa up to some recent date. The result is that Mr. Hailaday, who has been a faithful servant in that capacity since time immemorial, is to be superseded by Mr. Cyrus Horton, whose tender was the lowest of the three. Though apparently a snap it has its responsibilities, and we know that ere four years from the first of Oc- tober next our new man will be inured to hardships andin him will be devel- oped the highest virtues of endurance and courage. - NOTES.—Mr. Robt. Ferguson shipped some 60 head -of cattle to Calgarry last -Thursday where they will have ample room to roam...Our hotel man, Mr. Lounsbury, has been away for some time. Mr. Haskett has been doing everything justice -during his absence. ...Miss Crittenden, of Blyth, is spending some weeks visiting old friends and rel- atives here....Mr. Elmer Mahood occu- pied the pulpit of the Methodist Church on Sunday. His discourse was fluent afl inlpresaive....Water - is very scarce aroundthehamlet except Mr, Dulmage'a, and women have difficulty getting clean water enough out of the lake to do the waahing....Mr. Carlton, our blacksmith, is one of the busiest men in town. He is evidently giving satisfaction and is working up a grand trade....Our shoe• makers are quite busy and have men employed....Quite a nasty affair in the shape of theft has been engaging the at- tention of the public, and more especi- ally of the implicated parties who are neighbors. - At present it looks black, but we hope that time will unveil the mystery and that good feeling will ba restor.,� totn-
