J.• Livingstone. fomerly of Clin- ton, delivered an address at an Orange gathering at Wingham. Ms subject was "The worst side of Orangeism," which, answered in a few words, was that there was not enough of thent. tADVERTISINe CLINTON.-Messrs. J. MRs. B. SHEPPARD, who was so severely injured in a runaway accident a few weeks ago, had sufficiently re- covered to leave Goderich by the steamer Monarch on Satui day for her home at Sault Ste Marie, Mich. WE regret very much to learn that Mr's. (Capt.) McDonald, who has been ill for eight weeks at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. C. H. Hanley, town, is not recovering or gaining in, strength. MISS GERTRUDE GRAHAM, of Ingle- wood, who was on a visit to Clinton a short time since, was the other day un- ited in marriage to Mr. Harry Woods, a rising young lawyer of the same place. SHIPPING.-Last Monday Messrs. R. and J. Ransford shipped from here some 80 head of choice export steers and Mr. James fair 20, direct to Glas- gow. The average weight would he between 1,400 and 1,500 pounds. The price has been so very low that the gentlemen decided to handle the stock themselves. LEARN THE LAW. -Quite frequently advertisements appear offering a rewar'd'for the return of articles lost or stolen and promising that "no ques- tions will be asked." Sir John Thomp- son's criminal law says that both advertisers and publishers who assist in making such announcements shall be subject to a penalty of $25). The PRUDENT HOUSEWIFE will no doubt avail herself • of one Q€ the many BARGAIN$ in WALL PAPER offered for THIS WEEK. ONLY. E. Blackaill .and E. Canntelon took part in a shooting tournament at Park- hill last Thursday and were well to the front in nearly all the events. They won considerable money. Mn. E. S. DowNs and wife left on Saturday for Boissevain, Man., where Mr. Downs will re-establish his tailor• ing business. They were ticketed through by A. T. Cooper, C. P. R. agent. FELL FROM A LUMBER PILE. -Mr. John T. Shunk fell from a lumber pile at the Doherty Organ Factory on Mon- day and as a result will he laid off work for some days. The distance was probably fifteen feet. No bones were broken. He was severely bruised. A FAREWELL. -The London Free Press of Thursday says: -An exceed- ingly pleasant farewell party was given to Miss Hattie Read by Mr.' and Mrs. John Callender at their residence on York street Tuesday, which was very numerously attended by friends of the young lady and her sister Mrs. Callen- der. The Harpers furnished the music and a right lively time was spent until an early hour this morning. Guests were pregeut frorn Strathroy, Clinton and elsetvhere. Miss Read leaves in a few days forthe past -mentioned place, and it is rumored will shortly change her name STRIKING OUT. - TWO well- known farmer residents of a neighboring township met near Gilroy & Wiseman's corner on Mon(3ay morning. The one jostled the other and this re- sulted in a, blow from a whipstock. For lack of a name we will say that John Smith umpired the set-to as the contestants were "striking out" one for Lhe other. Better counsel,, however, soon prevailed. Before the Chief got onto the racket several blows were struck and blood drawn, but the trouble was amicably adjusted and the disputants were persuaded to seek peace rather than bloodshed. UNION MEANS STRENGTH. - Last Tuesday evening a delegation of two from each of the four Young People's Societies in town met in Mr. H. Foster's office and decided to form a union. to be known as the Clinton Young Peo- ple's Local Union. The first meeting will be held on the first Friday of January in the Ontario St. church and the organization committee , will re- commend the following as ()lacers for 1895 :-President, Mr. Horace Foster; Vice. -President, Mr. J. B: Hoover; Secy.-Treas., Miss A. Taylor; also that the presidents of the se'eral societies shall.he vice-presidents. An invitation is to be extended to the • societies at Holrnesville and Turner's; and as new societies are formed they will be cordially received. An interesting pro- gramme is now being arranged for the opening meeting. SETTLING TIME APPROACHES. -With the rapidly approaching close of the year comes settling time with many business men. Customers.should make it a point to square up and start the year even with the world, if possible. It may be but a small sum you owe ; but there are doubtless scores of other small sums due the merchant and mechanic and their aggregate is a large sum. Pay up your part, and help to keep all of the wheels of business moving. Where accounts are run between individuals they should be •rendered every year at least and a balance struck. Such a course would save many perplexing troubles when estates fall into the hands of the executors. Th.s is a step towards settlement that can b done 'without much money. A RELIC. -Mr. Brownson, who at one time worked for the Clinton organ company, sent Mr. F. W. Watts a piece of the bark of a tree said to have some of the blood of the murdered girl Jeesie Keith, near Lis- towel. Mr. Brownson lives about a half a mile from where the terrible deed was committed: EMPTY HOUSES AND INSURANCE. - It may interest house owners to know that should, houses be destroyed by fire when untenanted, it is difficult to collect insurance. In a case decided the other day, the' Waterloo Mutual succeeded in resisting payment on this ground. The safer way is to notify the conpany when a house becomes vacant. POULTRY AND PORK PRICES. -As yet. there is not a great deal moving. 'rices here are about as high as in Tor- onto, and the butchers so far handle about all that is going. Dressed geese hring 5c. per pound, turkeys 7c., ducks from 25c. to 35c. each, , chickens from 25c. to 35c. a pair. Pork is mov- ing very slow at $5 per hundred for the best. Farmers are holding hack in the hope that the price will advance. CRUELTY AND KINDNESS TO ANI- MALS. -A Grit contemporary says: - "W e - "We afe told that a certain farmer near here (Clinton). who had more horses than he wanted to winter, and - found it impossible to sell them, actu- ally turned three out on the road the °other day, with the hope that they 'would wander away and thus he would be saved the expense of feeding there ; BUT THEY CAME RACK TO HIM." It is more than' likely that the said farmer paid a few cents in advertising for the lost horses in THE NEWS -RECORD and recovered them. He turned • them on .the road a few days ago for pasture and they strayed away. Even adver- tising for "what you don't want" pays. If yoiX desire to recover a lost animal advertise in THE NE's -RECORD. LODGE LONDESBORo, SONS of ENG- LAND. -On Thursday, November 22nd. Londesboro Sons of England will ten- der a grand dinner and concert to the members and general public. Dinner will be served in the temperance hall froth 5 to 8 o'clock. The concert gill he held in Bell's hall, to commence at 8 p. m., and will consist of vocal and instrumental music, including Mr. Matt Floody, the well-known comic singer, Mr. David McGill, the noted baritone singer, and first class local talent. The supreme grand secretary, John W. Carter pf Toronto, and dis- trict deputy Thos. Jackson, of Clinton, will deliver addresses. No pains or expense are being spared to make the affair a success and there should be a Hood turnout from Clinton and neigh- borhood. 8 Roils ' Brown .bu -12 6 5 6 8 65 8 19 10 12 8 8 White 4i 44 ii Blanks 44 Glimmer Mica Bronze Gilt c4 44 c4 ii 44 GO i4 44 44 it 4c 44 cc K rc is 44. cc worth 30c. for 60c. 48c. 50c. 60c, 50c, 96c, 72c. 60c. 96c. $4.40 1.80 3.00 3,00 2.00 2.00 44 i. 44 it 44 4i ci 44 44 44 4r 44 44 ss 44 i4 44 it N 44 44 44 4: 44 +i 4i iG 15c. 25c. 20c.

FAREWELL SUPPER. -It was the pleasure of THE .NEws•RecpRD to he present at a farewell supper at the Rattenbury House on Tuesday even- ing, last week. Mr. Harding, a genu- ine English gentleman, . of Bedford, whose son is learning farming with Mr. John Beacom, of Goderich town- ship, came to Canada some weeks since on a visit and cast his lot in Huron, particularly Clinton and neigh- borhood, for the greater portion of the time, and previous to his departure for home invited the following ge.tlernen to partake of his hospitality :-W. W. Farran, -Dr. Shaw, Mayor Holmes, ('apt. Rance, Jaynes Fair, Jr., K. S. Duan, Phil. Crews, John Ransford, W. Jackson, J. 1'. Tisdall, John Beacom, Capt. Cornbe, W. Spalding, A.M. Todd and the intelligent young farmer son of Mr. Harding. The supper consist- ed of choice fowl and other solids and was in keeping with mine host of the Rattenbury. After the tables had been cleared there was an excellent pro- gramme presented. Mr. John Rans- ford was the flrst on the list for a speech, hut with the consent of the chairman he proposed giving his ex- perience as secretary of the D. F. Club. In a most thrilling, clever and enter- taining manner he described the Club's visit to a spiritualistic seance. The (lark-roorn experiences, singing to slow music, the conversation with and ap- pearance of other -world spirits, and it converation with long -departed friends, were all vividly portrayed in Mr. R's well-known style with particular emphasis. /The related experiences started the ball rolling and Myssrs. Farran. Jackson, Tisdall; Combe; Bea - coni, Spalding and others followed with songs and innocent jokes. The health of Mr. Harding brought the gentleman to his feet. He related his experiences in and impressions of Can- ada, They were all favorable, except the "abominable fences," He believes we have the "garden of the continent," but that the hedge fence should be in- troduced at once. His remarks were highly laudatory of our own Cana- dian country and people and he promised to give all his im- fressions in a letter to Tim NEws-RE- coRD. The gathering was a very en- joyable and profitable oue, bringing together as it did the sons of Great Britain and the sons of Greater Bri- tain -Canada. THE NEWS -RECORD would be pleased if Britishers only knew more of this Greater Britain and our people. �J. W. CHIDLEY, =� FURNITURE DEALER AND UNDERTAKER.

BEEsLEy8tEn The Ladies Favorite Establishment BEAVER BLOCK II GUNTON' Under Your Stove It's a good idea to put a piece of Oil Cloth ; a.live coal or some hot ashes dropped from it will spoil more carpet in a minute, than would have paid for the oil cloth half a dozen times over. Wo have it 1, 14, 12 and 2 yards wide, but what we sell the most of, is a piece 11 yards square, which costs you 550., 90c., $1.20 or $1.25 the square. The $1.25 square is made specially for the purpose, being in the form of a square mat finished with a border on all sides. While it costs a trifle more than the others, it has by far the best appearance. Did You Know That we made and laid all Carpets bought of us,, free of charge ? That's quite an advantage, even if we hadn't a bigger and better stock (which we think we have) and didn't sell any cheaper (which we think we do) than most people.
