A Pretty Rendering. "Snow White" or the "Seven Dwarfs" was most successfully render- ed by a large class of young people on Friday evening last, under the direc- tion of Miss Houghton. There was a large attendance, and those present enjoyed the entertainment very much indeed. Miss Alice Mann as "Princess Snow White," Miss Netterfleld as "Queen," and J. Trout as "Prince" acted their parts admirably, while the "Seven Dwarfs" were quite at home in the characters ; in fact all did well. Mrs. C. P. Smith was the Accom- panist and the Band assisted with selections. Altogether the entertain- ment was very successful, and worthy of the large patronage it received.

A very quiet wedding was solemniz- ed in the presence of a few of the im- mediate relatives of the contracting parties, on Saturday, June 29th, at 2,30 p.m., at St. John's Church, Nor- way, by the rector, Rev. W. L. Baynes Reed, when Miss Laura M. Gamble became the bride of Mr. Ches- ter L. Davis of the J. B. Henderson Co., Toronto (formerly of Wingham). The bride, who was unattended, was dressed in a brown silk travelling suit with hat to match. After a dainty luncheon at the residence of Mrs. Boyes, sister of the bride, the happy couple left mid showers of rice for a short trip east. Chester's Wing - ham friends hope that the future may be pleasant and prosperous. Huron Old Boys. The Town Council has decided to welcome the Huron Old Boys in a fitting manner on Saturday next. The special train conveying the excur- sionists, which will arrive via G. T. R. about noon, will be met at the station by the Town Council, the Citizens Band, and a large representation of the citizens. A procession will be formed, and, headed by the Band, march to the Town Hall, where ad- dresses of welcome will be presented and replies made. At 2 o'clock sharp the following games and amusements will be entered upon with zest in the Town Park, which will be free to all, viz :—Baseball Match, Teeswater vs. Wingham. Girls' Race, 12 years and under -1st prize, $1.50 ; 2nd, $1; 3rd, 50c. Boys' Race, 12 years anti under - 1st, $1.50 ; 2nd, $1; 3rd, 50c. Com- mercial Travellers' Race -1st, $2 ; 2nd, $1.

Council met on Friday evening to decide on the appointment of a Chief Constable to take the place of V. Vannorman, resigned. There was only one application, that of Geo. Alien. Couns. Gregory and McDon- ald took the ground that the method taken, of advertising the second time, was not fair to former applicants, and while they were perfectly satisfied with Mr. Allen, they thought that one should have been chosen from the other applicants, on the first adver- tisement. The Mayor also understood that was to have been the plan. However as there was but the one ap- plication, Mr. Allen was appointed, and the general impression is, that he will make an excellent official. The duties are not so arduous, as numer- ous, and when Mr. Allen becomes familiar with the long list, we feel sure that he will do his best to dis- charge his duties faithfully. The Council then spent some time arrang- ing for the Huron Old Boys' reception and then adjourned. Very Sudden Death. Suddenly indeed did the dark cloud appear and deluge a Wingham home with sorrow on Thursday morning. Death came that morning without the warning of illness, and almost in a moment Mrs. Little, of John street, was numbered among those who have "crossed the river." The deceased lady was in her customary good health the day before, and had only a few days before returned from a few weeks' visit. On the morning referred to she rose apparently in her usual health, but after coming downstairs complained of a peculiar feeling in her throat, and, commencing to cough, asked for a drink of water. Her daughters assisted her back to bed, and almost in a moment her spirit had taken its flight, Medical aid was se- cured, but it was of no avail. The de- ceased lady had been a resident of Wingham for about three years, com- ing here from Brussels. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church, a good woman, and an affectionate mother. She leaves two daughters, Miss Emma and Miss Lucy, who are grief-stricken by the sad event that so suddenly deprived them of mother. The funeral took place on Saturday to Mt. Pleasant cemetery, Toronto. J. C. Reading's Wedding. A quiet but fashionable home wed- ding was solemnized at high noon June 19th, at the residence of the bride's mother, when one of London's cultured young ladies in the person of Ada Clare Abbott, youngest daughter of Mrs. M. J. Abbott, was united in the bonds of happy wedlock to John Chas. Reading, of Toronto, son of 'Mr, 0, J. Heading, of Wingham. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. E. B. Lanceley, pastor of Dundas Cen- tre Methodist church. The brides- maid, Miss Georgina Abbott, sister of the bride, preceded the bride to the parlor, suitably decorated with a pro- fusion of white flowers, the bridal patty taking their places beneath a magnificent arch of smilax and car- nations. The bride was gowned handsomely in white chiffon silk, trimmed with lace and ribbon, and carried a shower bouquet of white a r were from To - roses. Invited guests .ts g To- ronto, Hamilton, Peterboro, Barrie, Orillia, Wingham, St. Thomas and other points. The happy couple left on the afternoon express for Niagara Falls, Buffalo and the Thousand Islands. On their return they will reside in Toronto, For the best values obtainable any- where in is well assorted, fresh, clean, new and up -to -elate stock, you will find them at the leading Dress Goods and Fancy Goods store of D.

On Monday last, the Dominion of Canada was forty years old, and the holiday was well observed in town. Many took advantage of reduced rail- way fares to visit friends at a dis- tance ; others went to Brussels, Tees - water, Wroxeter or Goderich, where celebrations were held. Wingham was very quiet; had no celebration ; did not even raise its flag to the breeze over the Town Hall, where the town daddies (all loyal men) meet to legislate for the good of the citizens generally. The Citizens' Band en- livened the Teeswater celebration with their excellent music. An amus- ing incident occurred Saturday even- ing, when a man coining from Toron- to or some place east, was bound for Wroxeter. Unfortunately he fell asleep, and forgot to wake up, until the late train had carried him on to Wingham. To hire a livery and drive to Wroxeter where he arrived in the early morn, was the only remedy. The only thing that disturbed the quiet of our town was a group of young men (said to be from Lucknow) who filled themselves up with whiskey and made the street resound with yells and curses. One of them especially, was beastly drunk, and would have been locked up, had the Chief spied him. Canadian Home Circle. A branch of this fraternal organiza- tion was organized on Thursday even- inglast,byP.M.

Miss Brock, and also two of the boys are ill. We hope the illness may not prove serious, but that all may soon be well again. WOOL WANTED. --Highest price paid in cash or trade.—T. A. Mills, A Grey Wedding. A very pretty wedding was solem- nized on Wednesday, June 20th, at "Maple Grove" Farm" the home of Edward and Mrs. Bryans, when their second daughter, Miss Annie, was united in the holy bonds of matri- mony to Robt. McAllister, a well known resident of Grey. At 12 o'clock noon Miss Ina Bryans played Hohlengrin's Wedding March and the bridal procession marched into the parlor, the bride leaning on the arm of her father, who gave her away. They took their places ander a very pretty arch decorated with myrtle leaves suspending a wedding bell, and the ceremony was performed by Rev. E. F. Armstrong, B.D., of Ethel. The bride looked charming in a beautiful gown of white organdie trimmed with vul tn' t es laceand carried a boquet of while roses, maiden hair and lily of the valley. She was attended by Miss Mary Mc- Allister, sister of the groom, while Dr. W. B. Bryans, brother to the bride, supported the groom. Miss Edith Ames and Master Lyle McAllister acted as maid of honor and page very neatly, Miss Edith wearing a pretty dress of white silk. The groom's gift to the bride was a sunburst of pearls ; to the bridesmaid a crescent of pearls; and to the maid of honor an initial bracelet. The young couple left on a trip to Toronto, Niagara and other points carrying with them the good 'wishes of many friends, Toilet Soaps 4$COLQATES" See Our Window. We Import Direct—You Reap Benefit.

Thanks for your patronage. Don't forget, I'm still' pegging away. —Saunders. Mr. Jack of Corbetton, and Mrs. S. Rundle of Manitoba (formerly of Dun- dalk) were in town and called on the Advance last Friday, to renew the acquaintanceship of former days, when the editor presided in the sanc- tum of the child of his younger days, the Dundalk Herald, now ably con- ducted by Mr. McIntyre. The latter was then in the Banking business. We never heard of an editor getting well enough off to go into the Bank- ing business, but we presume Bro. McIntyre made his little pile in Bank- ing, and in looking around for an honest way of getting rid of it, and becoming a public benefactor at the same time, he found a good opening in the newspaper business. We are pleased to hear that Dundalk is thriv- ing, and that there are many there yet that have kindly remembrances of the first publisher of their excellent local paper.
