Tnnr TABLE. -A new time table went into effect on the Buffalo and tiroderich branch of the Grand Trunk, last Mon- day morning.

Cook, Howick; W. Milne, Grey; H. Eilber, Hay; W. Proudfoot,' Goderich, and A. McMurchie, Clinton, who constitute the House of Refuge Committee, met in Mr McMurchie's office, on Friday, ; to- Arrange. .,details . connected with the erection of the building. It was decided to sink.a well on the place, and erect a windmill at once, and advertise for tenders for the erection of, the building, the above committee to meet and open. tenders just -before the December meeting of the County Council. TowN "COUNCIL.—_Council met on Tuesday evening; the following ac- counts were passed:—J. Becker, street work, $630- F. Evans, teaming, $5.25; J. Leslie,iiheelbarrow, $4.50; R. Rey Holds, salarya300; A. Ewing, rent, $2.50; T. Spooner, Fent, $2; J. Miller, street watering, $25; Mrs Cudmore, scrub- bing hall, $8; J. W.

The sum of $50 was granted towards. the cleaning out of Fair's pond, as the the same is to be used for fire protec- tion purposes. MARKET DAY.—At the Council meeting on Tuesday evening, council- lor Armstrong introduced a resolution, seconded by councillor Taylor, that we endeavor to establish a market day here; the resolution was warmly endorsed by the members of council, and Saturday, Sept. 15th, was decided upon as the first market day. The Monthly Fair will be held on the same day. In order to make the same a suc- cess, there must be the mutual co-oper- ation of both farmers and townspeople. It is said that one cause of failure to establish the market before, was due to the fact that higher prices were asked for produce than was at the stores. Let everybody unite to get the day estab- lished. There are no fees to pay, and we hope to see a good turn out on the morning of the 15th inst. Larson DAY.—At one time it looked as if there would be no celebration of this day here, owing to a hitch in ar- rangements, but an amicable adjust- ment of all difficulties paved the way for a nice pleasant day's outing. The intended procession had to be abandon- ed, but all the sports were well con- tested, with the following result: - 100 yard race, M. Canfelon, F. Beatty; 200 yard race, Chas. McKinnon, Fred Beatty; third -mile race, Chas. Mc- Kinnon, Fred Beatty; 100 yard boys race, H. Gordon, Fred Gilroy; 100 yard old men's race, Thos. Kemp, George Cottle; three-legged race, McKinnon and Beatty, Read and Twitchell; 100 yard smoking race, R. D. Stanley, Wm. Dew,ns, Goderich; 50 yard girl's race, Lilly Aitken, Ida Ross; one mile walking race, Wm. Walker, Robt. Twitchell; Bicycle races—one mile town championship, G. N. McLean; two-mile lap race, Thos. Bates, Gode- rich; the three-mile county champion- ship was limited to 10 minutes, but, Hillier, Bates and Emerson, who rode, were ruled out; boys' race under 18, one - mile, ]1. Holmes, Wm. Hillier, of Goderich third mile boys' race under 14, Walter Irwin, Goldie Pike. Bruce - field heat Clinton at cricket; the town and the organ factory lacrosse match resulted in a draw; the organ factory beat the town at base ball, score 17 to 18; the base ball match between Clin- ton and Goderich resulted in a squab- ble, the score'standing 13 to 14 in fav- or of Clinton, but Goderich refused to complete the g i ie. In the tug of war the married mon wer beaten by the single, Several huned people were en the'round. The . nd added much to the day's pleaeurl dent that Clinton had the worst of it, and the only consolation is that to be beaten by a club like that of Galt is no disgrace. A LONG TIME.—If spared until the 16th inst., (and there is at present ev- ery probability they will be spared much longer) Mr and Mrs T. Q Coop- er, of Princess St., will pass the 62nd anniversary of their marriage. It is not the lot of very many people to live in unbroken relationship° for so lona a time. Mr and Mrs CDoper were mar - dried on a Sunday, the anniversary falls on a Sunday this year and they would like some arithmetical friend to tell them how many times the anniversary has fallen on a Sunda y. NOTES.—Mr Joe Jarvis, formerly of town, has opened a tailor shop at Brucefleld. Mr Many. Hill, of -Hallett, left us on Saturday some corn that measures over eleven feet in length; pretty good for a dry year.

Doherty played with the Blyth band at the Grange picnic, on Thurs y., Mr James McDougall carries his band hand in a sling, the result of getting it poisoned in some way.
