TIIE LATE JOSEPII LOCKE.—A statue to the
memory of Joseph Locke, the eminent engineer, has
for some time past been on its pedestal in the Locke-park,
Barnsley, awaiting the ceremony of unveiling. The day
for that purpose is now officially fixed for the 18th inst.,
and Lord A. Paget has undertaken the task. At a meet-
ing of the Barnsley Local Board of Health, on Tuesday, it
was recommended that the entire battalion of the rifle corps
should be present, and that all public bodies and societies
in the town should be invited to take part in the proceed-
ings, which was agreed to. It was further suggested that
a public dinner should take place after the ceremony, at
which Mr. W. S. Stanhope should be asked to preside, and
Mr. E. Taylor to take the vice-chair. This suggestion was
also agreed to. A local holiday will mark the interesting
ovent.—Sherborne Journal.
