Althoui;h the essay is vary goud in itnelf, yet it recasaarily cov- ers much the same ground with that of the tirst prize article, published last week, which was ooinplete and convincing. An- other reason for not publinhing it is that a suc'ind clasii article followini; upon a first clasH unavoidably injures the good results obtained from the former.

There was to have been a baseball match in Fleaherton yesterday between Markdale and Flesherton clubs, for which small bills were issued and other prepar- ations made, but at almost the last moment word was received that Mtrkdale could not come, owing to the death of some one. It is probable that Flesher- ton and Priceville will meet on the diamond here some day next week.

Tlie eld fashioned joint picnic between the Presbyterian and Methodint Sunday schools, held on the beaver meadow, near Flesherton, last Wednesday, was one of the most enjoyable affairs of the kind which we ever attended. The day w;i» pleasant, the crowd was large, anu every one,old and yuung,abanduned themselves to the festivities with an enerty that de- noted the complete puttiii'^ away of buni- ueas anxibly. Baseball, croquet, swiue- inj,', and other games were plentiful. It was beautiful to see elderly gentlemen return to the games of their childhood, such as "duck on the rock," "tag," and "command you red lion." It was also beautiful to see them limping along the street on the following day like old spavined, riiigboned, foundered horsee, with dejected, muscle-contracted looks in their faces. Anyway they had a good time, and judging by the crovrds present the old annual Sunday scheul picnic has lost none of its charms.

To CorreBpondents. Will correspondents kindly wiite upon one tide of the paper only, and also en- deavor to write legibly. This week we have wrestled with manuscript closely written and written upon lioth sides. If there are errors in it the writers will please remember that wo are very busy with job work and have not time to de- vote to the study of picture writing or hieroglyphics. Had the same manuscrii't, however, been written with lines and words more distinct, it would be consid- ered as good. Please write plainly Bears. Bears appear to be quite plentiful out east of Eugenia this summer. A liltlu girl, daughter of Mr. H.W. Philips, aged 10 years, was driving the cows along the road near her father's house a few days ai»(<, wliuii a large black dog, as she lliounht|Rt the time, walked out of the busti, stood npim its hind legs and grin- ned at her. Thu aniiimKi bawled and started to run, when the bear (for it was a bear) dropped down upon his feet .tgaiii and ambl«<l olf into the bush.

It is necessary that you mention this paper in sending for the "Treatise." This offer will remain open for only a short timo. A 'Wild Beast Show. An itinerant showman pitched his tent on Trimble's corner last Friday. The show was not advertised nor heralded in in any way What the show was, only the owner knew. It was his business. If any person wished to tind out hu could pay his dime for the information. .An old colicky drum and an asthmatic hand organ furnished what was called music inside the tent. We waited around for a long time in the vain endeavor to find soma one who had bean inside, but htd to give it up in disgust. We actually did not see one person enter the yawning canvas d<H>r. A shooting gallery oy the outside drew considerable custom, but as Tommy Hollinger was away camping the shouting contest was not very spirited. The tliowiiiati folded their tent on Sunday evening and cautiously stole away while the natives were at church, which makes us suspicious that tliey were not exactly Methodists, Presbyterians nor Baptists. In fiict we don't believe they were very religious people, anyway. He WftB Balky. If there is anythiii:; in this world more exasperating than a balky horse thiA paper would like to know whni it is.
