Lawn Social,
The Lawn Social an Tlutrsday even-
ing last melee the auspices of the
Anglieart Young People's Association
of St. Paul's Ohms* was a very enjoy-
able
njoyable event. The evening was fine, the
attendance large, and the receipts
were $51, The selections by the Band
made the evening pass pleasantly,
Westward Bound.
Among those who left for the west
on Saturday were four from town.
James Found went to view the land.
John Welsh has had land taken asp for
him and has gone to look into the
prospects ; I;e will probably remove
there. Two young men, Newman
Wellwood and Benson Cruikshank,
went on a trip to see the land of
which so much has been said and
written.
Married.
A wedding of local interest was con-
summated in Toronto recently at the
residence of Mr. G. 0. Flintoff, Ser-
geant of the Toronto Junction police
force, 81 Pacific avenue, when Miss
Marie Wellwood, sister of Mr. Win.
Wellwood of Wingham, became the
bride of Mr. Alden Burritt of Mitchell.
The ceremony was performed by the
bride's brother, Rev. N. Wellwood,
and the bride was given away by
Sergt. Flintoff. The bride wore a
handsome gown of blue eolienne over
taffeta, and carried bridal roses. Mr.
and Mrs. Burritt are spending their
honeymoon in Montreal and Quebec,
and on returning will reside in
Afitehell, where Mr. Burritt has ex-
tensive business interests.
The Markets.
This week, the local market reports
wheat at 90 cts; flour, $2.40 to $2.75;
oats, 40 to 42 cts,; butter, 16 cts.; eggs,
15 ets.; new potatoes, $1.00 a bushel ;
wool, 25 to 26 cts.; live hogs, $0.25.
Bowling Contest.
A Bowling contest enlivened the
grounds of Wingham Bowling Club,
on Tuesday. Two rinks of Brussels
bowlers were the visitors. Afternoon
and evening games were pleasantly
played, the visitors leaving the home
players away behind in the score.
This Everting.
Is the date of the Garden party to
be held on the lawn of Mr. E. Emmen,
Diagonal street, under the auspices of
the ladies of the Methodist Church.
The Band will be in attendance. Ad-
mission, 25 eta.; children, 15 cts. Re.
freshnients, ice-cream, etc., will be
served. tf the weather proves unfav-
orable, the Social will be held in the
lecture room of the church.
Court Holds It.
Chief Justice Meredith has decided
that the legacy left by the late Alex.
McKenzie of Lucknov, to the Free
Presbyterian Church in Canada, in
connection with the Free Presbyterian
Church in Scotland, must be paid into
court until some beneficiary succeeds
in snaking good the legacy. The Chief
Justice decides that there is a legal
uncertainty as to whoa, the money
should be paid. There is more than
one "Free Presbyterian Church in
Scotland," and the evidence shows
that several groups of individuals ans-
wer in a measure to the term "Free
Presbyterian Chnroh in Canada."

Eat Cheese.
Prof. Atwater, one of the ggreatest
living authorities on foods, believes
that one pound full cream cheese has
as great nutritive value as 1 1-4 lbs.
steak, and if the cheese is properly
cured it is certainly fully digestible.
Cheese, he adds, is next to milk the
most perfect food, and in connection
with bread. a perfect one. In Canada
the consumption of cheese amounts to
about five pounds per head. It is a
pity the Canadian people do not show
greater appreciation of a food product
in the manufacture of which they
hold the first place in the world. It
would add both to the health and
prosperity of this country if we used
more cheese at home.
Civic Holiday.
Tuesday, Augnst est, has been pro-
claimed by hi:atyor Bell as Wingham's
Civic holiday, The event of the day
will be the 'Thiel) Sunday School ex-
cursion to the lakeside, Kincardine ;
a trip that the children look forward
with so much pleasure. Wingham
Citizens' Band will accompany the
excursion, The train is billed to leave
Mitchell at 7.15 a. m., arriving at
WiAgham at nine o'clock, and at $in- -
eazdine soon after ten. Returning,
the train will leave llineardine at 7 p.
m. The fares for adults and children
are--l3elgr'ave, 80 and 40 ets.; Wing -

joyable day are anticipated. See

Kincardine vs. Wingham.
The above Lacrosse teams will play
a championship game on the park
here, on Friday evening next. The
game is likely to be a close, exciting
game, as these teams are rivals for the
championship of the district, Listowel
not being in it now. Game called. at
4 p,m.; usual prices of admission. Give
the boys good gate receipts, as they
have been unfortunate, so far, and
have had to go down deep into their
own pockets. If Wingham boys win
this game they will be champions of
the district. We understand that the
stores will close from four to six and
that the factories will also shut down
atfo r n o'clock. e Tomake the e

Work Commenced.
We understand that tenders have
been asked for the work of extension
of mains, the new flume and stand-
pipe,•and the probability is --that the
work will be proceeded with at an
early date. The work has so far been
cotnmenced, that the Executive com-
mittee of the Council has purchased
land for the standpipe from Mr. John
Armour. The location selected is just
inside his gate at the east end of John
street, The foundation ground has
been tested ; men have dug down six
feet and found it very satisfactory.
The standpipe, with its contents,
when full of water, will be a tremen-
dous weight, and it is gratifying to
know that a good foundation is acces-
sibie on the spot where the standpipe
requires to be located. The priee
agreed on for the site, is, we hear, $75.

Ireland, in 1800. She was married on
May 0th, 183.3, to her late husband,

by which she broke a hip joint, has
kept her in the house ever since, but

Entrance Results.
We publish in this issue the results
of the recent entrance examinations.
Notwithstanding the increased per
tentage required, Wingham school
holds a most successful record. Twen-
ty-seven pupils wrote on the examina-

these took 70 per cent. and thus stand
on the Honor list. This is exceedingly

Lacrosse Qatne,
The lacrosse game on Friday last on
the park, between Wingham and
Listowel was neither fast nor exciting.
Listowel canto three men short, so
the game was played with nine men -
an each side. A heavy rain began
eoon after the game commenced, and
this prevented fast playing. The
game was too one-sided to make it in-
teresting, the score standing 17 to 4 in
favor of Wingham.
No Sunday Entertainment.
The Washington correspondents
of United States newspapers, a bril-
liant lot of journalists, have been tour-
ing and recently passed through Can-
ada, arriving in Toronto, Sunday
morning. Wherever they have gone,
they have been sumptuously enter-
tained, but Toronto through her May-
or, informed thein that the City could
not entertain on the Sabbath. This
may prove a salutary lesson to these
American journalists. The laxity of
Sabbath observance is one of the na-
tional sins of the *United States, and
perhaps no better method could have
been adopted to show these talented
journalists how Canadians observe
the day of rest, than to decline jaunt-
ing them from place to place and turn-
ing the Lord's Day into a day of feast-
ing, merriment, sight-seeing and jolti-
flcation. Mayor Urquhart is to be
commended for his action.

The Home Merchant.
Nearly every week, says. an ex-
change, we hear of someone being
"salted" by a shoddy pedlar. Some
people say why does the County
Council'not put on a stringent license
fee and thereby prohibit them. That
is not as easily done as said, with the
Statute reading as it does. One of
the most effective methods is for the
public to positively decline to deal
with strangers, and we will guarantee
these gentlemen would soon seek new
and greener pastures if this plan was
followed. One reason why there are
so many shoddy pedlars scouring the
country is because their profits are
to a
large and no expense comparable

in the way of taxes, sent and in-
surance. The established merchant
has a stronger claim on the trade than

PiLINQ IT ON HEAVY,
The tide of expenditure rises rapidly
in this Dominion. As will be seen
from an article on page 5, the es-
timates this year are over eighty mil -
ion dollars, and still there is no sign
of retrenchment. On the contrary,
the tide is rolling the other way. A
number of changes are proposed, and
among them are these .--
Premier Laurier's salary is to be in-
creased from $3,000 to $12,000, and the
Leader of the Opposition is to receive
the same pay as a Minister of the
Crown, $7,000. This last may perhaps
be partially excused, for the Leader of
the Opposition, be he Grit or Tory,
must, if he discharge his duties faith-
fully, devote much time and labor to
the work, and if it is in the interests
of the country, he should certainly
receive some remuneration, but $7,-
000 plus $2,500 indemnity, is (we
think) too much ; $5,000 with in-
demnity should be ample.
Then the inembers of the House of
Commons and the Senate are to have
their salaries increased, from $1,000 to
$2,000 (or a $1,000 of clear found
money) and this provision is to apply
to the present session ; it is proposed
to deduct from this, 315 for each day
of the member's absence, over the
fifteen days allowed. Instead of the
20 cts. mileage front their homes, the
members will be allowed only the
actual transport to and from their

promised in the Liberal platform of
1800.
The Judges, from those of the Su-
preme Court, down to the County
Court judges, are to share in the in- i'
a. at;
creases , the general opinion is that
they were getting sufficient.
The most uncalled and unnecessary
of all the changes made, is the pay-
ment of a pension to ex -Cabinet
ministers, of a sun, equal to one-half
of the salary attaching to the office
they held. This we regard as most
extravagant ; these men had large.
salaries while in office, and were well
paid for all they diel, and that should
hale been sufficient.
When, and where, is the present
reign of extravagant and constantly -
increasing expenditure to end ? With
the Governor-General, and all the
flummeries of his office, the Lieu-
tenant -Governors and all their expen-
sive theS useless Senators
i outfits, almost,
s Ve stfi a t O
and their salaries—Canada pays a
tremendous lot of ,stoney for which
she receives very little real benefit.
These proposed increases look like a
"hand-out" of public funds, and a
general game of "grab." The Govern-
ment, whose members viewed "with
alarm" the expenditure nine years
ago, when it was less than half what
is now, could prevent this "grab" if
it so desired. If the expenditure of
37 millions in 1890, was a "shame and
disgrace," what must the expenditure
of over eighty millions be in 1005,
with all these proposed increases yet
to be added.
"Pile it on, and pile it high" seems
to be the rule. This too, in face of the
fact, that Finance Minister Fielding,
hes stated that the day of surpluses
it hire
is past, and that Canada v I require
tt n
p ,q
very careful financing, if she is to
meet her accruing liabilities and in-
creasing expenditure.
The Opposition have an excellent
chance now to "do something" in the
interests of the country by stemming
. the tide of lavish expenditure. The
indications however, are, that rIltuR
tnouths are also watering for the
plum, and possibly they may offer
little or no opposition to the general
"hand-out," but take it and be thank-
ful that "things is no wuss."
Let us see—$1,000 a year extra, for
five years, is $5,000. Now then, every
member can (if he likes) spend $5,000
, in his own election, and still be as
well off as he was before. But, of
course, none of them will think of
doing anything like that ; oh uo I
Sit Wilfrid is cute ; he did not
stroke the fur the .wrong way this
time. Our ]imble opinion is—that
you won't hear any more kicking
about the Autonomy Bill, the length
of the session, or the heat of the wens
then. They'll all go house very happy,
earl one voting the other, "a jolly
good fellow."
