We make a Spocixlty of Watch Repairing. in a Life Time: A. GORDON Our usually quiet little burgh was somewhat excited last Friday even- ing. The occasion was a visit from the Dromore football team, who came over to play a friendly game with our boys. On two previous oc- casions our boys had suffered defeat at the feet of the famous Dromore team, but then football was only in its infancy here and we are not quite sanguine if it should wear long clothes yet for our boys again suffer- defeat by a score of 1 to 0. The game passed off in the most friendly way as the best of feeling exists between both teams. The line-up was as follows: Holsteinâ€" Goal, Hunt ; backs, Mitchell and Reid ; half backs, Seaman, Smith and Boyle; forwards, Ellis. Little. Mc- Ewen, Irvine and Edwards. Dro- morev-Goal, Wilson; backs, Cole- ridge and Nelson ; half-backs, Hunter Eccles and Renwick ; forwards, Tay- lor, Renwick, Lester, Swanston and Renwick. The return match is to be played in Dromore on Thursday even. ing next when our boys purpose turning defeat into victory. The roads in this vicinity are re- ceiving their annual coat. All the loose stones are being carefully gathered which is a decided advan- tage to the traveller. And while all this improvement is going on our sidewalks are in the same old dilapio dated condition. The sidewalk storm is over. and the condition of afiairs is growing worse. W. Mitchell, of Tecumseh. spent a. few days lately with friends here. J. D. Roberts is building a. new stable and drive shed. The Haas Bros. are the contractors and the work W1“ soon be completed. Mrs. Wrein, of Fordwich. was the guest of her brother, A. Doupe, last week. C. Drumm has commenced a livery business here, and is meeting with a reasonable degree of success in his new venture. We hope his success may be such as will warrant bis con- tinuance in that line. Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Jamieson, of Mount Forest were the guests of Dr. Brown last Saturday.

The line-up was as follows :â€" Thompson Greenwood Gilliard Gélviu The home team took only one goal the first quarter, which goes to show the visitors to be no mean foe to fight. In the second quarter they got three more and the visitors got only one by the time the whistle blew- The visitors scored the first goal in the third quarter. giving them two in all. Notwithstanding their desperation to gain by hook or by crook, and an immense amount of heavy slugging by which two or three of our men were disabled for a time, they couldn’t make another point, and at the close of the third quarter the score stood six to two in favor of Durham.

Bert Mockler took a snap shot of the Durham lacrosse boys just before the game started for fear any of them should be unrecognizable after the match. Hammond McLean How does it lookâ€"9 to ‘2? Poor Owen Sound ! Billy Hunter is rapidly becoming a good man on the lacrosse field. Dowkés Murrin Dug Munro and Allie McIntyre are old reliables and get there with both feet every time. We anxiously wait to see how the Owen Sound papers will explain the drubbing their boys got here on Tuesday. Jim Lambert will he tickled be- cause Mt. Forest defeated Owen Sound on the Sounders’ lacrosse lawn last week. If he had been here on Tuesday he would be tickled again to see the way our boys fleeced’ em. There wasn’t a single man on the Owen Sound teem knocked out which shows the good clean game put up by our boys. Several of the home boys came to grief by the vigorous slashing ol’ the visiting teams. A load of young ladies came over from Hanover to witness the gene. Their heerte. no doubt. were with the Durhun boys. The Owen Sounders are simply not in it, in playing lacrosse. and realiz- ing this they began some dirty slugging with s view to disabling the Durham boys by their superior weight. But even weight didn’t count much. and it was amusing to see Jimmy Lavelle get after one of the big fellows. Jimmy is a little fellow. but he’s a tough one to get away from when it comes to a scrim. mage. He is full of grit, and the size of the enemy has no terrors for him.

The visitors brought a heavy team of picked players fully confident of gaining in the first quarter, but they :were not long in finding out that 'the Durham boys were not an easy aggregation to dispose of. The score was 9 to 2 in favor of Durham, and the playing from first to last showed our boys to have a dead easy snap in disposing of the visitors. The Sounders were heavy men and good players notwithstanding their igno- moninious failure to make more than two goals. Charlie Lavellq was in the Durham net, but his chief work consisted in viewing the rubber as it played at the other end of the field. On a few occasions the ball did find its way near the Durham net, but the Durham defence men proved an insurmountable barrier against which the enemy could make little impres- sion.
