Quite a number from here are at the Toronto Exhibition this week. Mr. Orr, the new landlord of the Al- bion hotel, took possession on Tuesday afternoon last. He comes here with a good reputation, and will, no doubt, keep up the high stand this hotel now has as a commercial house. Rev. and Mrs. Greene intend visiting the World's Fair at Chicago shortly. Mrs. Geo. Green, of Wingham, is vis- iting with her mother, Mrs. A. B. Alli- son, in this village, at present. Mrs. Al- lison has not been enjoying --good health of late. Mr. Archie Mr.Intosh has moved into the residence over Greer's shoe store, where he will reside with his family for a short time. A disgraceful affair occurred here on the night of the'tournament which may yet bring one young man a severe but well -merited punishment. The you -ng man, whose name we have not -yet learned, but who is reported to have came from Orangeville to play lacrosse with the HaPriston team, formed -the -ac- quaintance of a daughter of Jas. Mc- Grath during the afternoon, and late in the evening persuaded the girl to ac- company him for awalk. 1-Vlien they had got some distance soath cif Wm. Gregg's farm, the young man assaulted the girl, whose cries and struggles for- tunately brought help to the scene be- fore he had accomplished his purpose. He then disappeared and got out of. town as best he could in the dark. A day or two _ afterwards, an arrest wds made in Orangeville, but when the prisoner was brought before Miss Mc- Grath -she stated that he was not the person who had assaulted her. To -day (Tuesday) the constables are in Strat- ford where itis expected they "have se- cured the criminal, who will be brought here for preliminary` trial, and a gener- al hope is expressed that heavy justice may be dealt out to him. Mr. J. R. Williams, undertaker,of this village, is in Toronto taking a course in. the Toronto School of Embalming. Mr. W. has greatly improved the under- taking department of his business of late, having now one of the finest hearses in the county and as choice a selection of coffins, shrouds, etc., as can be found anywhere, and is now prepar- ing himself for the highest requirements in the art'of embalming. THE DEMONSTRATION. There was a large turn -out at the tournament held here on Friday last. The weather was just threatening enough, early ie. the morning, to pre- vent some from coming from very far, but later on the sun calve out and the weather was delightfnl. The com- mittee did everything in its power to have each event come off as announced but the failure of the Listowel base ball clip to be present and the persistent and disgusting kicking constantly indulged in by the various teams from Winghatu made things somewhat unpleasant for the spectators. The Gerrie Brass Band rendered really first-class music during the day and received much favorable comments Wingham and Listowel - were pitted against each other for the base ball prize in the forenoon, but the, non -ar- rival of the latter club necessitated a change. Wingham consented to .play an exhibition game with the Unions on being assured that they would get $20, win or lose. Five in- nings -of very poor ball were played in which the Unions came out ahead by a score of about 20 to 10. After dinner a very spirited and exciting game of base ball was played between the married men of Wroxeter and Gorrie and - the unmarried men of the same villages. This game was greatly enjoyed by all. In its first stage the benedicts kept the _ lead, but later on the bachelors passed them and won by a large, majority. A lacrosse match was to have been next on the -program, and; n3a,ny of the spectators had" come especially, to see this game. But Wingham objected _ to two players -on the:Rariiston teare who had played with" Orangeville the . Sum- mer. Nothing that the comm ittee could do would induce Wingham to go on with the game, and Harriston refused to put the men off so .after about an hour's disgusting wrangling the game' was declared off. Then came the foot -ball match, which wound up the sports of the day. The Rangers were short four or five of their regular team, while Wingham was bolstered up by several strong outside players. After fifteen minutes of the second half had expired Eddie•Wright, Gorrie boas-keeper,stum- bled in making a kick, and Wingham got the ball through. From this out Wingham played a defence game and their nimble goal -keeper had his hands full, dexterously stopping a dozen or so shots on goal. The game ended 1 goal to 0 in favor of Wingham. The tournament proved a financial success, but unless some plan can be adopted to -prevent the tiresome dis- putes amongt the players, tournaments will soon fall into disfavor. NOTES. A refreshment stand on the ground did a gdbd business all the afternoon. Among the spectators were the edi- tors of the Harriston Tribune, W ing- ham Times and Advane. An unusual- ly large number of ladies watched the base ball game, Married vs. Single but just about all their sympathies went out to the former. There certainly were some on the bachelors' team old enough "to have been playing on the other side. The lacrflsse "kickers" no doubt enjoyed themselves but it cost them $20, and the commtee was so much richer. That money should now be divided between -the Brass Band and Foot Ball club. • Wro ter. Mr. Jno., Sanderson and bride have returned from Scotland. • - A dozen or so of our Citizens will start for Chicago this week to visit the World's Fair. The Alerts of London were anxious to get on a game with the Unions, offer- ing the boys a large guarantee, but a satisfactory date could not be arranged and the match has since fallen through. Tile I.O.O.F. are completing arrange- ments for a grand entertainment to be held about- the "middle of October. Among the talent will be Miss Alex- ander; the famous elocutionist, and y1r. W.E.Ramsey, Canada's greatest humor- ist. On Tuesday the officers of Wroxeter Council of the Royal Arcanum met the widow of the late Matthew Buutin at the station in this village, and formally presented her with a cheque for $3,000 being the amount of her unfortunate husband's insurance in that society. The payment was somewhat delayed by reason of the death having occurred in Toronto, two trips to that city being necessary in making out the papers. eta set how - No. 39. criticizing public.
