Parents of childeen along Athol street are warned to keep tbemn off the railway tracks, as there have been many close shaves'thee lately in the accident lne. Four Oshawa rinks deféated four rinks from Prospect Park, (Toronto, not Elis park,) by one shot last Thursday and in the evening Oshawa did up Wbitby by about forîy shots. On Tuesday nigbt at Whitby four Oshawa rinks trimmed Wbitby by 21 shots. On Tuesday a large party of oid people were invited to the residence of Mr. J. O. Clifford, Harmony, to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Lorne Drew, Mrs. Cliflord's mother A good old chat and a merry time was in- dulged in, and an eas chair was presented to Mrs. Drew by lier friends.

The presence of the railway îrack has a tendency to cause a quicker thawing on the main streets, and they are already quite muddy. In a day or lwo there wi il be no sleighing on these streets, and the back streets wili have t0 be used entirely. 0f course the natural result will be that the streets having railway lines will dry up ear- lier. The choir, of the Simncoe st. methodist church, under the leadership of Prof. A. O. Geiger intend giving a grand concert on Easter Monday evening, April 6th. Pro- grammes will be out in a few days. This will without a doubt bc the finest concert lield in Oshawa this year. The Oshawa or. chestra under the leadership of Mr. Geiger will make their first appearance at this con- cert. Mr. 0. Pascoe traded horses with Mr. R. jeffery on Saturday, and drove his horse up îu Elliot & White's milI, leaving hlmn stand-1 ing by the door untied while he ran in to see the firm. The horse started to move and walked over the side of the platform, falling a distanoe of about twenty feet thereby end- îng ils useful career. It is understood that1 the horse was biind, which account.s for its acrobatic performance. Brth-To the Diogenes family there has been an addition. The Reformer has had a monopoly of the original Diogenes up o10 date, but now a more conceited and self-as- suming Young Diogenes has sprung up in1 the \Vîndicator claimning 10 be the original turned off by te Reformer's correspond- ence inill. How to distinguish between1 them, or how 10 maké sure which is the spurious article is the trouble. Married-At the manse, Oshawa, March iith, 1896, by Rev. S. H.

The fire and water commiîtee, composed ()f Aldermen Henderson. McLean, Craig, McCaw and French, met last Monday even- ing to open the tenders received in response of the advertisement for caretaker of the town hall. Some twenty-flve tenders were received rangîng in salary from $300 to $450 per yeai. Afttr a hot discussion as to the necessity of having a caretaker the commit- tee adjourned until next Monday evening. M<ssrs. Hendersoxi, McCaw anîd McLean are in favor of having a caretaker while Messrs. Craig and French think that a care- î aker is not needed. Last %Wednesday evening the members of Rebecca iodge NO. 3, gathered at the homne (f Mr. and Mrs. Wmn. Dickie to spend a so- cial evening with Mr. and Mrs. McLean be- fore they left îown. They were presented with a beautiful dlock as a sliiht token of the esteem in which they were held by the friends and members of that iodge. The following address was read :'Having iearn- ed with deep regret of your intended re- movaî from our mdst, we, your br( thers and sisters of Oshawa Rebecca Iodge, find that we could not alîow this opportunîty to pass. without addressing you with a few parîing words and in somne way expresing the fraternal feeling in which you are heîd by the iodge. We wouid ask y0u 10 acr.ept this dlock as a slight token of esleem, and that when you are far from us you wiIl often caîl to mind the many happy hours we have spent together. We wisb you God speed in vour new home anîd may the Grand Master above long spare you in heaith and happi- ness to enable you to meel with our order and assist in exemplyfing our great princi- pIes the father baud of God and the brother- hood of man." After supper was served the ev'eniag's amusement was brought bo a close. On Tbursday everîing a sleighing party was gotten up t10 escart Mr. and Mms. McLean 10 Wbitby to take the train there 10 Port Pe"r, but wben tbey reacbed Whitby they fouud there were no trains running. Mr. and Mrs. McLean left on Friday for Port Perry. The Reformer of lait week prints anothfr of ils ambiguous paragraphi about THvE CHRLONICLIE, wbicb starts nowbere and* ends there. Il takes care 10 keep wide of the sub- ject of anonymous letters 4bout a year ago it had ils anonymous leIter machine running weekly, and bad raised ils average up 10 five or six a week, each hitting somebody be- low lbe boIt. We calied public attention to the extent of Ibis cowardly slashing, and n another anonymous letter appeared in the Reformer for over tbree monthi-until ils editor tbougbt the public had torgotten about it. Threo weeks ago the Reformer had five of these fatheriess epistles, and last week there was none left to keep the machine run- ning but Diogenes, whose main object ini wrîing appeapd to ho to try and put a face on this namelesse dasa of literature. Have not tbe results in every case shown that THE CHRONICLEL is right in demanding a more manly class of newspaper comment ? How hs it that no poison e-ver seeks go stab people secretly througb THE CHIRONICLE. They know botter than toeoven suggest sucb a thing.

McGillivray related a special as- sortment of yarns for the edification of the crowd, and certainly carried the house. Dr. Patter-on recited some pieces in the Irish dialect.

There were only tbree men who didn't emoke, and they stayed at borne. After the programme had expired, and the midnight hour with it, the visiting Party from Wbitby and other oulside points were invited 10 refreshments in another hall, where a rattling wind-up vvas indulged in. Oshawa's first oflort at producing traditional Scotch performances may be rated as a tremendous success, which will be repeated and iniproved upon many limes in future. Dlog-enei dies bard. It is often the experience of obscure men to corne suddenly mbt prominence somehow and cut a greal figure. Then, having shot their boIt, and there being nothing more in themn, they go back forever to that obscurity from whence they camne. This must neces- sarily prove the fate of one who is unknown, like Diogenes. However, he feels that he cannot die so soon, and seeks 10 rescue him- -self for a short spell fromn oblivion by turning froma bis war with the drarntic club chamn- pions, whomn he says lie bas demolished, 10 THE CHRONICLE. He declares the doctors and aclors were an easy mark for him, and his bead is so swelled by bis stIf-assumned triumph that he is looking for a champion slang-whanger to measure his wit wiîh, s0 he pitches int us. He feels that he ia great hero, and no doubt he is a very brave man-his hidden position behind the oîd grsnny women ofîthe Reformer proves that much. We agree with Diogenes that an un- known person may present valuable consid- etations upon public matters and hold legitimate ground, but we fear he will he making new doctrine if he assumes that one mnay indulge in personalities fromn a hidden place and relain his dlaim 10 right or cour- age. If he be as clever as he assumes lo be, lie must clearly see that there is no issue 10 discuss between us, except personalities, and if we deî-ired this we do not know him. Therefore the brave (P> Diogenes seeks 10 fight where he will be entirely hidden ail the while! He had better have goneinto oblivion without rTaking such dying kicks. He has enîertained us aIl for a short period, and ba% furnished a subject for conversation and newspaper talk. Up to last week he used decent language and had kept fairiy well within the bounds of proper discussion. H-e became Diogenes for a purpose, and tbat purpose be has accomplished. He now maires himself ridictîlous by trying to fit himself 10 a rew underîaking of a difierent character. Even though aIl he says about us were true, truth itself does not excuse eiîher a hidden coward or a known combat- ant for indulging in gross personalities. Like his original of olden time, Diogenes disdains to be guided by either literary or artistic ruies. That is one of the thinge which will prevent him from becoming a junius, which {ae admits he bas in view. There have been len t housand spurious Juniuses, but only a single real one. There will neyer be more than one genuine Diogenes. Neither Junius rior Diogenes were men to be admired, nor are their imitators. Asto0whaî Diogenes bas to say about either THE CHRONICLE or ils editor, we have nothing to reply. The pub- lic must De the judge of sucb matters.

We noticed an item in the Kinsale corres- ponpence of last weelr regarding an item our Gazette scribe wrote a short time ago. Now, I have nothing more to say about it than this. Everybody knows il is worth far more than 1,5 cents to listen to such a choice program as the Whitby choir is able to give, and aiways do give. The reason buch a smail charge was made, was so that every one, old and young, wouid be able to attend the treat of the season. 0f course we were anxious for our Kinsale friends to hear it, and are very sorry they were unable to at- tend il.

Fhree have already been formed, one ai Pros- p-ect, one by Manchester and Utica. and one at Greenbank. The farmers are surely going to economnise in tiais line as well as others pertaining to their position. Ini each ring theTe are twenty members, a beef is killed each week and divided equaily, aad the average cost is about 4 cents per lb.
