The Presbyterians at Arthur are building a new church and invited their old pastor, Rev. L. W. Thom, of this place, to take part in the cere- mony and lay one of the corner stones of the new building, on Fri- day afternoon last, which he consent- ed to do. The ’bus driver forgot to call for Mr. Thom at the manse on Friday morning as he was instructed to do. Upon learning this Mr. R. J. Sproule hitched up and John like drove to the station, but reached there only in time to see the train move out of sight. It was a disap- pointment to Mr. Thom and was doubtless as much so to his old flock, but a message from him in the after- noon containing a handsome dona- tion to lay on the corner stone would be tangible evidence that they were remembered by and had the God- speed wishes of their former paStor. ‘The Orangem'e'n. of Artemesia SDistrict, with a visiting lodge from liirnberley celebrated the 209th an- miversary of the battle of the Boyne .in a manner befitting the “ glorious :twelfth" at Flesherton Station on Wednesday of last week. Our sister :burgh entertained her visitors royal- ‘ly and looked quite taking in her reception dress. Flags floated in the breeze, hunting and evergreens ‘were in profusion and three hand~ some arches Spanned the front street. Shortly after dinner the procession formed and marched to McKenzie’s bush where patriotic Speeches were given by Revs. Ward and Darroch .and Dr. Christoe, of this place, Rev. Plunkett, of Eugenia, Rev. Condell, .of Dundalk, and Mr. John Lyons, of Markdale, Mr. Thos. Gilray, of Eu- ;phrasia, presiding. The speeches .over, the procession re-forined and marched back to the village, where, .after the grand rallv and cheers for Queen and Country the lodges began to move for their respective homes. Kell’s and Orange Valley having lost ; .their lodge rooms and contents by! fire’last fall have not got their new| .outfit yet and did not march asi separate lodges under their own aanners. Notwithstanding the C. P. B. excursion and strong attrac- tions at Owen Sound the turnout .here was large, orderly and well con- ducted and the Orangemen of this District are to be congratulated upon the success of their celebration. The Hon. W. B. Ives. Ex.-presid- rent of the Privy Council. and the rep- presentative of Sherbrooke, Que. in ‘the House of Commons died at St. Luke’s HOSpital, Ottawa, on Satur- -day last.

He was son in-law of the late Hon. .John Henry Pope, who for many ,years was Minister of Railways annder John A. Macdonald’s govern- ment. Largely signed petitions have been forwarded by teachers to the Minis- ter of Education, recommending the appointment of Inspector Dearness, 'to the principalship of the new Nor- mal School at London. a: a a Hon. C. A. Gefirion, Liberal Mem- her for Vercheres, Que. is dy,ing if inot already past that bourne from ‘which no traveller returns. Mr. 'Geofirion has been eminently suc- -cessful as alawyer, but as a poltician .he was regarded as a failure, a fact in: which he gloried, as he hated public' life. He was a bosom friend of Sir 'Wilfrid Laurier, and it is said that he ihad neither personal nor political en- ~emy in Canada. ARRISTEB, NOTARY, CON- ‘: EYANCER, Etc" Etc.
