Everything published in a news- paper is supposed to be private till the paper is out. Even the ofice hands are pledged to secrecy, and don’t you forget. it. Faith-healer Dowie now says that he is the Prophet Elijah, which leads an American paper to remark that there seems to be a slight ditfierence.

Come early nnd avoid the rush. A little girl visited recently at the house of a minister. After grace she remarked that her pa didn’t say such a long blessnng before eating. Whereupon the Minister asked wha‘t her pa said. and the child innocently answered that her pa just togk the cover of! the dish and said “ O Lord, what a dinner 3” Even the pious man that runs the Meatord Mirror has become tired of contributors who are trying to dis- cuss the question of Baptism. .He says it’s just about as well to let people do their own thinking on such matters. In most cases if peo- ple would try as hard to be good as they try to make people believe they are good, they’d be good enough for anything. A few nights ago as a gentleman citizen accompanied by two ladies drove into town. alter dark, a vicious looking tramp accosted them out about Hutton’s Hill. Thinking his; trampship had evil designs. one of the young ladies who handled the Hazel, spurred on the horse, but looking behind they saw the furious monster close upon them and rush- ing wildly forward. An additional incentive was given the horse, not too last at any time, but now tired after a long drive. In the flight one of the young ladies lost a wrap un- noticed. and Mr. tramp picked it up. The hotly pursued chase was con- ‘tinued until reaching the creamery where John A. who was just re. turning from a trustee meeting went quietly to his home enjoying the 1 Re immensely. The return of the wrap next day let the cat out of the bag. and the apparently evil pursuer still laughs so as to be heard a mile off when he tells the little story.

The Aberdeen: of Harkdalo lot Their Waterloo to the Tune of 14 Goo]: to 4 in Favor of Durban. The first game of the Intermediate League No. 5, was played on the grounds here Thursday, when the Aberdeens from Markdale crossed sticks with the boys here. Never in the history of this place was a more skilful game played. Never be- fore were the people of Durham more elated over the success, and never we say advisedly did the la- crosse boys from Markdale get a more generous surprise. The visiting team was in first class form, and having on previous oc- casions beaten our boys they were fully confident of an easy victory with their splendid team of picked players from Owen Sound, Meaford. Brampton and other places. Our boys were all resident men, but they are all fairly good ones, and though the ‘visitors were heavier and stronger, the way it was likely to go could be judged as soon as the ball moved out from the centre, and passed into the net aften three or four of the most skillul tosses ever witnessed at a lacrosse match, the ball remained round the visitors goal and in just three minutes the vociferous and deafening yells an- nounced a victory for the home team, the ball being passed into the net unnoticed by the goal keeper. Naturally enough the visitors thought this was a chance shot and felt qtfite confident that nothing of gthe kind would ever occur again. Him the second goal was won in less than half a minute to the conster- ation of the visitors who began now to feel they had run up against something they never expected. Lacrosse Match. The “Aberdeens” now put up a good fight and did excellent work making good combinations, and ap- parently determined to hold their own against all odds. In about ten minutes they made their first goal but the fourth was made by the "Durhams" in about three minutes. Another tussel of five minutes gave the visitors a goal. The sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth goals were made by the Durham boys, the tenth and eleventh by the visitors and all the rest by the home team. 'l‘weuty goals in all were scored, 16 by Durham and 4 by Markdale. but as one was disputed and the last one was made just when the whistle blew the official score was declared 14 to 4 in favor of the Durham boys. The Aberdeens are certainly a goodl team, and with practice will be able‘ to put up an exceedingly fine game1 before the season is over. Every one of the boys handles his stick well. and at difiersnt stages of the game made some fine combinations at long ranges. In a close scuflle. however, our boys were too many for them, and it was here the best Work was done by the home team. The game from first to last was considered a good clean, honeSt exhibition of playing, and though a little one-sided owing to the su- perior skill of the Durham boys we hope the next time they cross sticks the match may be a little more even- 1y. contested. The teams lined up in the following order :â€" Tuck ............ Goal. ...... Laidlaw Stephenson . . . . . Point ........ Mahan Cameron . . . . Cover Point .......
