Snell, o f Hullett, left for Chicago, on Wednesr day, with twenty-two head ofLeicister sheepintended for. exhibition at the Word's Fair. The sheep are the cream of hjs stock, and. represent nearly $2,500. AIVOINVIBNT.—Mr Harry T. Rance, on: the recommendation of the D.A.G., has been appointed to the command of the Exeter Volunteer Company, with the rank of Captain. Mr Rance is well qualified fort the position, and is as genial, affable and gentlemanly a young man as is to be found in the .town. DEAma.—About two weeks ago the wife of Mr Josh. Inwood, of Hullett, formerly ot Clinton, had the misfor- tune to get her thigh broken by one of the cows striking her.- She never re- covered therefrom, and died on Friday last. She was a hardworking indus- trious woman. TEMPERANCE.—There was a good at- tendOce ,ce at the open meeting of the Teat. ranee Lodge last Friday even- t ieg;' and all were evidently pleased at evening's entertainment. The pro- gram embraced singing ' by the Glee Club of the lodge, a recitation by Miss M. Washington, solos by Miss Hattie Rumballand Mr Israel, club swinging by;Bert Taylor, retitation by Miss hite and addresses by Mr Jas. Scott, barrister, and Rev... J. W.- Holmes, oth of whom were very interesting, and their remarks cordiallyappreciated. TRIFLES.—Get ready for the fall show. The fall fair season is now on deck. Turnips are coming on nicely, and fall wheat looks well. The days are now shorter by two hours than they were in June, a full hour having been cut off each end of them and the shortening process is going on at the clipping rate of about three minutes every twenty-four hours. The recent heavy rains, although slightly incon- venient as far as business was concern- ed, have been just what the country needed; roots and fall wheat -are look- ing magnificent. NEWS TO CLINTONIANS.—That one has to go away from home for news finds an illustration in the following item, clipped from a far eastaper:— "A record has been made at Clinton, Ontario, wl e , there has been born twins the other day to Mr and Mrs Wishard; the father 77 and the wife 62 years of age. The twins and mother are doing well." It is scarcely necessary to say that the item is not true, as regards this place, no such persons whatever resid- ing here, nor any occurrence of this nature transpiring here. 'orbit WHO TRAV.414.—Mr W. Jackson, the popular" agent. of ,the G,. T. R., has all" the Beta of travel at hfs finger ends, and when people want to know the hest rail connections oe routes, he is always willing to, supply the information., He has book a hgreat many passenger this season, and; ad the foflowin World's Vail* party last Week:—R. Gould, Mies Dursley, Jacob Taylor, . Rev. H. Diehl,, J. Irving,. Clinton; A. (ottld, Holnlesville; .Chris, Nesbitt; T. Churchill, Hy. Baker, Goderich townshi ; Dr. ,Sheppard and. wife, Bayfield; D.Fell and wife,D. E. Munro, h. Erratt, J. Fisher, Auburn. 4 41 Doily.—.When Mr Bawden Purchased a portion of the big Hans- ford farm,. and purposed, selling it out ii: ,park lots, a good many people. thought he had gone into a speculation that Would leave him "In a hole"—not that the investment was a bald' one `by any means, but very few thought he would be able to sell it in lots.- The result has not verified this anticipation but on the contrary has been roost satisfactory to Mr Bawden, .and now that he has disposed.,, of the whole 165 acres, at fairly good prices, those who at first were skeptical, are now wonder- ing how itwas they did not see a spec- ulation in it themselves. The proper- ty,.was not boomed at all, as this term is usually understood, but Mr Bawden seemed to possess a sort of mesmeric power, and was ably seconded in his efforts by Mr Thos. Carling, who dis- posed of not a few of the lots. Next year several of the purchasers purpose erecting houses, and the "Bawden annex" may yet be quite an important addition to the residential portion of the town.. THE. DOHERTY ORGAN.—The Lon- don Advertiser, in its Western Fair notes, says:—Upstairs on the north side of the main building is an exhibit which everybody stops to see and which no one can help praising. The Doherty organ has been before the public for many years and has won an enviable reputation. The exhibit is a grand one, and visitors should make it a point to see it. The Toronto Globe has the following to say regarding these instruments:—"Sir Richard Web- ster, the distinguished guest of the Fair yesterday, called at the splendid organ exhibit of the Doherty Organ Company in the annex. After being shown all the beautiful designs, Sir Richard, during a pleasant conversa- tion, told the gentleman in charge that he knew the Doherty Organ well. He said that a few years ago the organ most thought of in England was the Estey, an American organ, but he was pleased to say that a Canadian instru- ment—the Doherty—was regarded as the best to=day. This, coming from one of England's leaders in liberal science, is truly great praise for the Doherty.. NOTES.—Mr. Smith, of Hensall, has taken up his residence in town. The other day Mr Geo. Lavis bought one of the old buildings from Mr T. Car- ling, belonging to the "Dodsworth row," and sold it a few hours later at an advance of $10, to Mr T. C. Pickard, of Holmesville, who is removing it to that place. A valued and perfectly harmless deg,_ owned by Rev: J. W. Holmes, was poisoned ' on Monday by some one not a friend of canines. Messrs -Steep and Darling are buying and exporting "culled apples," and have already shipped away two car loads; they express their willingness to pay the highest price for such fruit. Mrs Taylor, of town, has rented her farm of 100 acres, on the 13th con. of Hullett„ to Mr Issac Lawrence, for one year, at a rental of $240; she gets a good tenant, and he gets a good farm. g p Mr Thos.

The princi- pal, in his monthly report says ,"Al - thou h so many upils were sent to The principal was empowered to close the school on the afternoon of Wednes- day, the 27th inst., the day of the fall fair. Miss Leslie applied for six months leave of absence in order to attend the Normal. This was left over to see what arrangements could be made. THE WORKSHOP ON WHEELS.—E. Taylor, who had• a machine shop on wheels here for some months last year, was in the city last week He is at pre- sent located in Clinton and complains of the treatment he receives there. A lot of hoodoos continually molest him and the other night several persons at- tempted to. burglarise his shop. Mr Taylor is a quiet, industrious and inof- fensive man, and it is hard to see why he should be molested as he complains he is.—Stratford Herald. (There is considerable exaggeration in this, the basis ot which simply was that some young fellows played pranks on him. It was lila own conduct here that led to the pranks being played. He should not look through a bottle so much. ACCIDENT.—On Monday evening, Mr Geo. Laois was driving a heifer into town, witen it ran up along the Huron road, and, as he thought, crossed the track, urging his horse forward quickly to get ahead of it, he was just going up . the grade that leads to the railway track, when Mr Richard Baker drove quickly up the grade on the opposite side, of course both unaware of the other's presence. In an instant there was a collision, the for,ce of which lock- ed the buggies together and threw Mr Baker violently out on his head. The; buggies were slightly broken, but no serious injury sustained by either Lavis or Baker. The heifer, instead of crossing the track, ,had turned up it, and as the evening train came along, it struck the animal and killed it. DIOMISSED.—On Monday Mr Jos. .Mallough, of Dungannon, appeared be- fore Messrs McGarva and Steep, charged by Inspector Paisley with a Sunday violation of the Crooks Act, and also with breaking one of the re- gulations framed by the commissioners. The charge of selling liquor on Sunday was not sustained, and a dismissal was entered accordingly. The second charge was in having his bar window blinds down, when they should have been up. The evidence showed that the bar has three windows; on one of these (the front one) the blind was down, while on the side windows the blinds were -tip, and as the magistrates •were not quite potitive whether this 'Would constitute a Clear violation of transferring a couple of licenses. e understand that Mr 11. B. Marcy wilLshortly leave town and remove to Winnipeg, to Lake charge of the north- western agency of the Doherty organ. We are exceedingly sorry to hear of the continued illness of Mr John Steep, who lies at the point of death; he is one of the old residents of thetown. At the Toronto exhibition Mr W. Do- herty sold his handsome colt, Young Carman, for a good figure. . Several persons about town are summoned to act as jurors at Goderich next week; this is a form of "invitation" they would rather not receive. Mrs May has been confined to the house for sev- eral weeks by a severe attack of rheu- matism. The C. P. R. will make a "north-west" exhibit at the Huron Central Fair, to be in charge of their representative, Mr Caven; the credit of. getting it here should be given their local agent, Mr A. T. Cooper. A chance to secure a good farm is offered on Saturday, Sept. 30th, when the May farm, one mile west of town, will be put up by auction. J. P. Doherty was a winner in one of the trotting races at London, on Tuesday, with the horse John Nelson. Nearly 200 tickets have been sold here for London this week. Mr Fred Jarvis, of Goderich township, has taken a position with the Dry Goods Palace. Mrs Reid, of Princess street, is confined to her room -by ill- ness. Davis & Rowland are putting in a new furnace for Jackson Bros. Mr James Perdue, of town, lost a little two- year-old boy this week; he had not been long i11. A Chinaman. from Lon- don, was in town on Wednesday, ar- ranging for a place to open a laundry, Mr Ronald has loaned a fire engine td the town,' while he is repairing our own. Mr D. A. Forrester and W. Weir were judges on grain and • Will Coats was a judge on flowers, at Goderich show, this week. The trustees of the Collegiate Institute have decided to put in more seats and desks to accomo- date the increasing attendance; this is an encouraging sign. The Mechanics' Institute, among other books, have added the author of Ben Hur's latest volume, "The Prince of India." Mrs trimmer and two children, of Toronto, are visiting relatives here. On Con- ductor Walmsley'd train, going south Wednesday afternoon, there were no less than three wedding couples. On Wednesday a young man from the country lost a pocket book containing $19; he has a suspicion that it was stol- en, but by whom he does not know.— Mr Saunders, late an einplo ee with the PENING • a a • F WE CAN SUPPLY ANY.
