Irwin, who has owned and edited the Blyth Standard for five years or more, has sold the business to Mr. A, E. Bradwin, of Toronto. Mr. Irwin's new field of labor the annuncement does pot state. However, he has succeeded h publishing the best conducted paper Blyth has ever had and he has the best wishes of THE NEWS -RECORD for con- tinued success in any calling he may engage in. A Tufo 'COMPLAINT. --Several pro- perty holders complain of the wanton destruction of property. Plate glass has been cut and scratched, brick work scratched, bored and scribbled on, and door and window wood work hacked by boys and young men who should • and do know better. An example will one of these days be made of some of , the ,,.,r etrators. The work may be due to thoughtlessness, but if wise the reckless habit will be discountined at once. - DASTARDLY' DOINGS.—It is not very often THE NEWS -RECORD feels called upon to criticize the behaviourjofyoung hien residing in Clinton, but we must confess there are a few of them that are a disgrace to any community. While the corpse of a respected citizen was lying at a certain residence last week several hoodlums "serenaded" the dead and resorted to rowdyism worthy only that, of heathens. They pelted the house with stones and made the hours of night hideous with obscene language. One of the rapscall- ions went so far that an interested party gave him a pair of black eyes. He anthe rest of the obstreperous gang deserve exposure in the courts. Such dastardly doings cannot be tolerated by any respectable commun- ity in the nineteenth century. Unless ample apology is made to the outraged parties THE NEWS -RECORD will feel compelled to publish the names just as we have ferreted them out. And then there may be some sensational develop- ments. DEATH'S HARVEST.—James Young, aged 59, joined the silent majority last Wednesday morning. For some years he had been in declining health and finally succumbed to a• general breakup of the system. Born in Whitby, of Scotch parentage, he removed to this section when a young man. He settled on a farm in Tuckersmith and followed farming for some years there. About fifteen years since' he removed to 'Clinton and engaged in the implement agency business and afterward turned, his attention to dairying. He had a particular interest for martial matters. Some years ago he was a commissioned officer in the 34th Battalion and performed service during the fenian raid. He was at one time Lieutenant " of No. 4 Company, 33rd Battalion, and was offered full command • he was also president of the Huron Rifle Associa- tion for tome time. A valued member and P. M. of Clinton Lodge No. 84, A. F. and A, M., his circle of friends was large. The deceased leaves a widow, son and daughter—Wm. J. S. and Miss Gertie, both grown up; and three brothers and a sister, Dr. Young of Londesboro, William, Andrew, and Mary of Whitby. The funeral last Friday was under Masonic auspices, the beautiful burial service being conducted by R. W. Bro. Rev. J. H. Fairlie, of Clinton, and the Grand Chaplain, R. W. Bro. Rev. Rural Dean Hodgens, of Seaforth. There was a large attendance. ANOTHER DEATH.—We very much regret to announce the death of Mrs. Felix Hanlon on Tuesday of las* week, aged 60 years. Her maiden name was Catherine Blake, daughter of the late Timothy Blake, of Hullet.t, and sister of Richard Blake of the same town- ship. The deceased was married over 42 pars ago and had afamily of eleven children—four daughters and seven sons. Some years since one son, three years of age, was killed by accident. The late Mrs. Hanlon was an exemp- lary Christian woman and was loved well by her neighbors and by many who were not neighbors. The writer remembers a few years ago in family sickness when Mrs. Hanlon filled the doctor's prescription in cheerfully fur- nishing chickens for broth when the delicacy could not be obtained else- where "for love or money." Her kind and generous heart made her many friends. The whole family, highly respected where they live, were pres- ent at the obsequies:—;Martin, a drug- gist at Williamsburg, near Lansing, Mich.; Felix from Dundalk, N. Y State; Patrick from Centralia, who conducts a general store and poet office there; Thomas from Stratford, who is the head. cutter in a leading tailoring store there; Richard from Stratford, who is in the car shops there; James, . of the Doherty organ fac- tory; Mrs. datnes Dean of Gode- rich; Mrs. Dominick Reynolds, of Strat- ford; and Elton, a delicate young woman residing with her father. The deceased Mrs. Hanlon was a staunch Member Af the Homan Catholic Church. The funeral took' place last Friday to the Hullett Cemetery, service being conducted by the Rev. Fr..Westt of ' Godericli.

Hodgens, of London, Ont„ were driven to Bruce - field on Monday by Deputy -Reeve Ken- nedy. The gentlemen are in search of ores for the English market from four to sever; years old and weighing about 1,200ounds. They will be here il.�ain next Wednesday, S. O. i ., WINGHAM.--•The Times says :—Mr. Thos. Jackson of Clinton, D. D. for the Sons of England, paid his annual visit to Torquay Lodge here, on Tuesday night last and,was well pleas- ed with the work being done here. The lodge is in a prosperous condition, initiations almost every night. Mr. Jackson also stated that were he a young man starting in unsiness, Wingham would certainly be his choice ahead of any town he knows. �S,'ERENAD1i:D.—It isa well-known fact that the Aland is greatly indebted to Mr. J. C. Gilroy for the handsome new stand on the market square. While the members of the Band feel greatly indebted to every citizen who con- tributed toward the expense and would like to serenade all, a visit was made to the residence of Mr. Gilroy last Thursday evening and the gentleman duly serenaded. A very enjoyable half .lour was spent, W EST. HURON ELECTION EXPENSES. —The advertised statement of Mr. Garrow's expenses runs up to $479.27, as follows :—Livery account, $196 ; printing and advertising, $91.86 ; rent of halls, &c ; $77.75 ; personal expense* $51.25 ; telegraph account and returns $21.73; distributing campaign literature and canvassing tri days, $20; postage $14.03; stationery $0.65.

COURT ACCOUNTS.—About forty times we billed an esteemed subscriber to THE NEWS -RECORD for his subscrip- tion. No attention was paid to • our modest request for payment. Fin- ally, after patience ceased to be a virtue, we wrote the gentle- man that we would draw on him through the bank, requesting ac- ceptance of draft. The draft was re- fused and "modestly" endorsed with the words that he "did not owe rt." Then we placed the account,amounting to $13.87 at $1.50 a year, in court. Last week judgment was secured for the full amount and placed in the hands of the bailiff for collection. Along with costs the bill will run to some twenty odd dollars probably. We mention this particular case as an indication of what may happen several other similar de- linquents. All OLD subscription ac- counts must be settled with as little delay as possible. THE SHOOTING TOURNAMENT.—The Mitchell Gun Club carried to a success- ful issue their first tournament on Wednesday of this week. Competitors were present from Hamilton, Seaforth, Clinton, St. Marys, Stratford and Carl- ingford. Every event on the pro- gramme was worked off except two, that darkness prevented. The entries in the single contests ran from 20 to 30 in each of the contests. McMurray and Cantelon, of Clinton, tied for the highest aggregate score. In the Mer- chants' class Mr. Robt. Hamilton, of Carlingford, won the first prize by breaking ten straight birds. Iu the competition for the silver cup Mitchell scored 51, Stratford 61. Clinton 65, Sea - forth 66. Seaforth thus won the cup. Mr. Wm. Foster, of Clinton, was the referee and •his decisions were never questioned. Altogether the tourna- ment was a credit to the Mitchell club, and the manner in which everything was managed called forth the praises of the large crowd present.—Advocate. LABOR. DAY.—Last Monday was Labor Day. The day was generally observed as a holiday in Clinton. A short programme of sports had been prepared hurriedly, but the attendance of outside visitors was not large, owing to the fact no doubt of the short date and the holiday being a new one, There seems to be a general feeling that hereafter the civic holiday should be set for Labor Day, a combination most desirable. The programme as furnished us for last week's NEWS -RE- CORD was changed somewhat. The followingevents took place on Recrea- tion Par : -100 yard race, M. Cantelon, Fred Beatty ; 200 yard race, Charles McKinnon, Fred Beatty; third -mile race, Charles McKinnon, Fred Beatty ; 100 yard boys race,H.Gordon, Fred Gil- roy ; 100 yard old men's race, Thos. Kemp, Geo. Cottle; three-legged ''ace, McKinnion and Beatty, Read and Twitchell ; 100 yard smoking race, R. D. Stanley, Wm.

Hillier of Goderich ; third mile boys race un- der 14, Walter Irwin, Goldie Pike. Brucefield beat 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 Clinton and Goderieh result- ed in a squabble, the score standi 12 to 14 in favor of Clinton.- Clin had 14 runs and 19 hits, while Goderi had 13 runs and 17 hits, Clinton was in poor . form, Agnew and Scruton being severely crippled, the former as a 'result of the previous match. Um- pire Hunter did not give satisfactory rulings. The single men beat the married men at tug-of-war 2 to 1. The band was in attendance and merit- ed the admiration of all. The receipts at the gate amounted to about $40.
