WE notice by our Flasherton news budget that the sports committee of that town has a cash balance on hand of $301.99. Surely their cel'ebration this year will be a big success. THE sports for Monday next are pretty well advertised. but lest any- one should forget we repeat the like- lihood of this being the greatest de- monstratiou ever witnesbed in this part of the country. Be here in time to see the great Calithumpian parade and all the other attractions. WE have to announce this week the death of Mrs. John A. Clark which took place on Monday. May 18th. exactly five months to the day after the death of her husband. and six months to the day after the death of her grandson. Albert Lloyd, son of Mr. Jas. Lloyd of this town. It seems rather singular that all three should have died on the 18th of the month. The deceased lady was sixty- six years of age. a native of Nor- wich, England. For the past fifteen years she has been in very poor health. Mrs. Jas. Lloyd is a daugh- ter of the deceased. Interment. takes place this Wednesday afternoon. Tim annual meeting of the oflicials' of the Durham Methodist. circuit was held in the school room on Tuesday afternoon. The pastor and officials are encouraged at the close of one of l the most successful years in the his-1 tory of the church. Numerically and ‘ financially the record is one of pro- gress. And the deepened and quick- ene-d spiritual life was evidenced by the unusually large attendance at the Communion service on Sunday. A committee was appointed to care 'for and see to the beautifying cf the lchurch lawn. Standing in a conspico uous place it ought to be made at- tractive and worthy of our growing ' town.
