The Huron News-Record, 1896-09-30, Page 8The Silver Question Ie agitating our American friends and is a matter of passing interest to Canadians and Cliatoniaoe. At our store you can always realize 100-oeot dollars, not 50 cent dollars—with us Value and Price go hand in hand, you sill never find the one with- out the other, the value usually the biggest though. Our five cent Salt Shakers and ten cent Cup and Saucer are exceptional. Do you need a Cloth Brush 1 if so examine ours at ten cents. We believe in the boat goods end popular prices. 'ale W. D.

PLUMS AND PEARS WANTED—Highest price paid.—CANTELON BROS., Clinton. See the beautiful Wedding Stationery at THE NEWS -RECORD Office. It is superior and does not cost as much as you pay in the cities, Those in need of Writing Tablets should have a neat card printed on them. THE NOWS-RE- CORD can supply you with all you require at little cost, tablet and all combined. A NECESSARY ORGANIZATION.—An effort which will doubtless prove suc- cessful is being made to organize an up-to-date Orchestra. Some ten or twelve local musicians have consented to take part and it is expected in a few days the organization will he complete. THE S. A. BAND.—A subscription list has been passed around and liber- ally responded to, so that Clinton will soon have a Salvation Army Band. The organization will prove a popular feature and a valuable ,auxiliary to the Army work. ROYALTY.—Lord and Lady Aber- deen passed through Clinton to Gode- rich last Wednesday on the one o'clock train. There was a number of citizens at the station, but the Queen's repre- sentative was not seen. The party were having lunch at the time the train was here. It was a mistake on the part of the Council in not recognizing in some way the presence of such notable per- sonages. On the return Thursday morning Lord Aberdeen stepped out on the platform. IMPROVE THE PARK—The cricket crease on the Park should he enlarged. The club, now one of the best. has spent about $125 on the ground and cannot well afford $200 more, a suru that would be required to Place the crease and enlarged grounds in proper shape. The work might be done for less if the Council would on behalf of the Town become interested. Our people enjoy the use of the Park and no portion more than the cricket crease. A grant of $10) would simply mean the greater improvement of a de- sirable property that the Town is al- ready interested in. The matter is worthy of consideration. OUR CLIMATE 1S SUPERIOR. ---Last, spring Mr. S. J. Andrews received from Missouri sorne coffee and peanut, in seed from a friend and experimented his garden. The result is a good crop of peanuts and coffee beans. The coffee is of the norohern bean species, which had developed here strong and healthy and is well [matured, while the stalk and kernel of the peanut seems to he even superior to what is produced in Missouri. The root of the latter is long and Blender, on the end of which the nut is formed. Sprouts from the lower and upper branches grow down- ward and after entering the soil the not forms and rapidly comes to matur- ity. The seed from which the plant before ua was grown was planted the latter part of May and can he fully de- veloped here, with proper care, about the middle of August or first of Sep- tember. NOT Oyu FAULT.—An esteemed sub- scriber whose post office address is Port Albert, and who always gays for his Aper In advance, complains that he received but I vepopie of 'Ino ltt'uws-1 :icons ranee June. The paper haeleftthis office ev'erj+Tu(isday n[ghtor early Wednesday morning and should reach the Port Albert office on time every week. There is certainly some cause for the non-deliveryand we trust there will not be future cause for complaint. If there is all our esteem- ed subscriber will have to do is notifly thia office hnd we ehall endeavor to as- certain the cause of the non -arrival or delivery. All papers for the mail leave tine office as regular as clock -work. LAST WEEK'S FROST.—Potatoes tomatoes and late grapes suffered ' Prom the severe frost early last week. The frequent rain in some sections has caused potatoes to rot in the ground and it is feared this trouble may be- come general and cause great loss. GoDERICH WINS.—The champion baseball match at Seaforth on Monday, between Goderich and the Gorrie- Wroxeter Unions, was won by the Goderich Club. The latter have beaten their opponents two out of three games. The score on Monday was 5 to 13. HAND SMASHED.—While coupling cars here on Monday Brakeman John Smith, of London, got his left hand in the coupling and it was badly smashed. The injured member was dressed and he returned home. He may not lose any of the Lingers or the hand,'although the splash is very severe. A TALE OF THE SEA.—This week that interesting continued story, "Fate's "instruments," concludes In THE NFws-RECORD, and we com- mence another entitled "A Tale of The Sea." It will be found worthy of per- sual and of great interest. SAD ERRAND.—Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Dowson were called on a very sad errand last Thursday. It was to attend the funeral of Mr. Dowson's sister Tillie, who died after eight days illness. The deceased was an estimable young woman, daughter of Mr. Henry Dow - son, con. 9, Stanley. Her age was 24 years and 11 months. The immediate cause of death was infiamation of the lungs. Tho funeral took place to Bayfield ceuretry and was largely attended. DROwNFD,—Yesterday's Globe says: —"The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. fl or - ranee, who were drowned last Friday in Sparrow Lake, while out canoeing, were brought to the city yesterday from Gravenhurst, They were taken through to Woodstock by the 2 o'clock train, and will be interred there. A statement telegraphed from Graven- hurst that Mr. arid Mrs. Torrance were inexperienced canoists is incorrect, as this understood they were both expert in the handling of a canoe." The lady was formerly a Miss Douglas, cousin to Miss and Messrs, G. D. and M. D. Mc- Taggart, and had only been married a few years. Mr. Torrance was a stu- dent at Knox College. Mr. G. D. Mc- Taggart attended the funeral at Wood- stock yester day. SERIOUS MISHAP.—Chris. Fanner, who resides near Exeter, showed sev- eral line thoro'-bred live hogs at the Goderich show and was awarded some of the prize money. The lot were in charge of Cookston, a cautious driver. On the return 'journey when corning down Acheson's hill on the Huron Road the reach of the heavily laden wagon broke and for a time it looked as though there would be certain death. The rig, driver and hogs were ditched and scattered promiscuously, the horses wining their liberty. Through the kindness of neighbors all were cared for—the driver being badly, though not seriously, shaken up and bruised. Mr, Cookston was able to return with his cargo to Exeter on Monday. _ A PROGRESSIVE FIRM.—Jackson Brothers, so long established in the clothing and furnishing business in Clinton, are still in the march of pro- gress. For nearly twenty years the firm have been up-to-date and in con- sequence their trade has increased until it now reaches from ocean to ocean. Wherever the firm is known orders for clothing corse, sometimes from distant and neighboring Sates, Canadian border towns and from the innermost parts of Canadian territory. A short time since one of the firm paid a flying visit of a few days to the Can- adian Northwest and returned with several thousand dollars worth of ordered clothing from the very hest people in that country, while erders continue to pour in from all quarters. To meet the demands a very large staff is constantly employed, the result be- ing a great benefit to many Mechanics and families. In order to be in pace with the great and increasing business the firm have completed the purchase of the magnificent plate front brick store in Coats' Block, recently occu- pied by Plumsteel and Gibbings, one of the largest stores in town, and on St.aurd ay next will inaugurate a great ieinov:tl sale. Jackson Broth- ers have well earned the Dominion business and reputation which they ppossess, and the worst wish of THE NEWS -RECORD is that the business of such a responsible firm may continue to flourish and thrive and that their trade may even further extend. They deserve all they have achieved and more too. Os'rAilii) Sr, METHODIST BIRTHDAY. Special services in connection with the 19th anniversary of the dedication of 1heOntario St. Church were held this week. On Sunday a-ervices were con- ducted in the morning by itev. A. Ste- wart, B. A. of the Willis Presbyterian church, and in the evening by ltev. B. Millyard, of the Itattenbury it. Metho- dist church. The congregations were large, the seruxms able and well re- ceived, and the choir conducted th- singing in their usual handsome man- ner. On Monday evening a Birthday Party was held, under the management of the Women's Christian Association of the rhur•ch. About. 300 people sat down to tea in the basement, which was nicely fitted up for the occasion. A large and ornate Birthday Cake, which was on exhibition in Mr. Mr- Clacherty's window during the past week, was cut, and distributed to the guests. After t,ea the people retired to the auditorium of the church and a feast of soul was indnlged in. Appro- priate addresses were delivered by Revs. Messrs. Harris, Millyard and Stewart. The musical part of the pro- gramme was ver fine. There was a solo by M al • a chorus by the full choir; net y Mrs. Wall and Miss Couch ; and a quartette by Messrs. Murch and Harland, Mrs.B.J. Gibbings and Miss Hamilton. Amid so much that was good, very good, it it may seem invidious to distinguish, but the solo by Mrs. Wall was certainly worthy of special mention. The superb autumn weather contributed a share to the . general success of the festival. A Birthday Party would hardly be com- plete without a birthday present. At the conclusion of the programme the pastor produced and placed upon the pulpit a handsome new pptrlpit Bible presented by Mrs. John Gibbings and Alas Mattie Shipley. The proceeds of the entertainment amounted to $88. W. JACKSON, Special Announcement. T. JACKSON, Jr. —��IAG7iSON BBOS., Gliaton;� The Oldest Clothing and Furnishing Establishment m Western Ontario, Established 1854. We beg to announce to the many patrons of the above long established business that we have bought the large and magnificent Corner Store in the Coats Block, lately occupied by Plumsteel ' Gibbings, and will occupy the same in a few weeks or as soon as the many changes are completed that we have now under way, which will make one of the very finest and largest Clothing Stores in Western Ontario. Since the year 1877 we have occupied the present stand in Victoria Block and the public well know the growth our Business has made. To -day our Local and Foreign Business has become so large that we are compelled to move to what we consider the -best store in the Town of Clinton, and when we become thoroughly settled in our new quarters we will leave thu�ublic to judge for themselves whether we can claim to have the largest and finest Clothing and Furnishing Estaffishment in Ontario. To make our change of place widely and distinctly known we are going to inaugurate a Removal Sale that will totally eclipse anything we have ever attempted in the past.

BLYTH FALL SHow.--•The Standard is in great trouble because some of the county papers have not mentioned the dates of their fall show.
