We are heartily glad to hear of the for
nation of the Canadian Kennel Club, and
have no doubt that it will, though young,
attain before long stout and vigorous
growth. Certainly there is no reason why
IL should not be in every way successful,
supported as it is by some of the best
sportsmen and most prominent kennel
owners of the Province of Ontario. We
expect before long to hear more of the Ca
madam Kennel Club. Forest and Stream
English advices speak in the following
terms of the field meeting at INVERSION,
July 9th g This year another record has
been cut at INVERSION, viz The standing
high jump in which G. Fox, of INVERSION,
accomplished the feat of clearing the lath
ing been feet 10 inches, as achieved by
F. Moore, of Burnley, and F. Hargreav.s,
of Washington. in tie at the Pendlebury
Sports in Manchester, August 5, 1871.
Every care was taken to certify the cor
rectness of the measurement, and Fox's
performance may be accepted as genuine.
Twenty five young men started in a five
and three-quarter mile race in the river
Thames on the 9th of September, to de-
eide who should be called the long distance
amateur champion of England at swim
ming. The struggle is said to have been
very keen and close right up to the finish,
which was j. r. liter, III Ism l5s; w.
Richardson, lii Ism 40s; A. L. Bettinson,
In Ism SIS !; G. A. liter, In 20m los w.
S. Booth, lh 2lm 30s; G. Bettinson, In
2lm SIS; and B. j. Phillips, LII 23m los,
with G. Spong two yards off. The winner
is % years of age, stands 5 feet u inches
high, and weighed l49 pounds.
The recent tournament between men and
beasts at Chicago would lead us to believe
that tive legs can beat four, or at least /
brains can beat instinct. This affair was
instituted by Daniel O'Leary and ]. Fl.
Haverly, who offered prizes of 81, 600,
81 ,000, $500, $3.50, $50 and 500, for
contest of one hundred and fifty-six hours.
The following score will tell the whole
thing: Men-Byrne, SIS; Khrone, 535
Colston, 500 Horses-Betsy Baker, SOS
Rose of Texas 545; Barthman's entry,
527; Dun's, 525. John Dobler withdrew
from the contest five days from the finish
on account of lameness, so it is said, and
R. Vint quit next day. The horse Specu-
lation retired after the fourth day, and on
the llth he died, and foul play is suspected.
The result of the race cannot be regarded
as having settled the question of the rela-
tive endurance of men and horses, and is
not near SO good showing as was made
by the horses in San Francisco last Octo-

ing the celebration, Friday September IL,
1850, OF the 250th anniversary of the first
settlement of Boston. All loyal Bosto-
mans, wherever located, felt it their duty
to revisit their former home and assist in

Every local train brought its full load of
COUNTRY COUSINS
To view the sights, and as all the railroads
ran trains at reduced rates and increased
frequency, very large percentage of
Massachusetts itself was on hand. The
streets being so narrow ION an average
like Oak avenue) and the sidewalks still
narrower, averaging about FIVE feet, the
crowd seemed larger than it really was.
Judge, however, that at least 200, 900
strangers were in Boston last Friday. The
procession was very long and very good
but must have been tiresome to those who .
stood for eight or ten hours to see IL
through, for we were tired and we rode.
The most interesting sight to us was after
the procession had been dismissed. in
watching the crowd depart To reach the
three depots of the Boston and Maine Rail.
road, the Boston and Lowell Railroad, and
the Fitchburg railroad, the people were
obliged to pass the Revere, as being the
usual route. Our windows commanded
Bowdoin square and we sat for two hours
watching a continuous stream of men,
women and children, so vast and dense
that they filled the street to the exclusion
of teams as they pressed onward to the
various depots to take the cars for home.
All were nicely dressed as all were on
visit, and it certainly was grand and
beautiful panorama. In the evening the
torch-light parade was complete success,
and the streets were again jammed. |
must give Boston crowd credit for being
good-i atured, for neither during day or
evening did we see or hear row, and we
rode some thousands of miles that day.
You see we had to--we hired a carriage for

For a moment Harold swayed towards

Mauvain, without stirring, listened to
the retreating footsteps of the man who

TESTIMONY GtyES BEFORE THE CORONER :
JURY CONCERNING his DEATH.
The sudden death Of oE old man Se!fe-
Doctor Clarks partner-has created some
talk among the gosslps ofthe city, and they
have thereby, created soAe doubts, as TO the
cause of the old mans death, in tie minds
Of some Of other more thoughtful people.
1t is true that Dr. Clark acted some what
strangely during the night the old man
died, but since his mind is effected, his
conduct does not argue foul play.
The following testimony given before the
the coroner's jury by Anna and Nicholas
Me, VINO reside in the same building in
which the old man died, is the cause Of
the talk. Anna Me being sworn and
questioned by Coroner Fitzgerald said
Ny name is Anna Me. my age is twenty
nine years. reside in the same building
ing ia which Selfe died. That night, at
about one o'clock heard noise as of a
man grooming, called my husband and
he raped on Selfe's door but did not get
any response from the room. | heard Mr..
Clark speaking loud to deceased about fiji
teen minutes before my husband
raped, but could not hear what he said
| think Mr.. Clark could not have fallen
asleep from the time heard him talking
until the time my husband raped. This
happened September lst, $780, in this city.
Mr.. Clark came to me about daylight and
said deceased was dead. Mr.. Clark would
not admit anyone to the room and was very
stubborn when they asked to be let in"
Nicholas Me being sworn, said;
Last night deceased seemed to suffer a
good deal went to the door where he
slept and knocked, but could get no re-
ply. I then went down stairs and called
| Bette Hines, as she was in the habit OF
waiting on deceased. We both came up
and knocked, but could not get in. Mr.
Clark said in a very surly tone Of voice that
he would not admit anybody, and at about
80 o'clock, Mr.. Clark reported the de-
ceased dead. Mr. Clark was very short and
surly in his answers when we asked for adj
mission. Deceased must have suffered very
much through the night before death Mr.
Clark acted very strangely about the mat

The Womans Christian Temperance
Union held its regular weekly meeting in
the Reform hall yesterday afternoon, and
transacted some business of public impor-
lance. Mrs. G.. NJ. Alden, the president,
and Miss Jennie Wilson, the secretary, &C.
cupied seats on the platform. After devo-
tional exercises by Mrs. Cornell speeches
were made by several members in regard to
an aggressive work against the use OF
strong drink, which, touching point of
general interest, was listened to
with rapt attention. A committee
consisting of Mrs, Ford, Ms. R'ttenhousc,
Mrs. Alden and Mrs, George was APP
pointed to visit the jails Of this city not
less than once month in the interest OF
the cause. The prosecuting committee
which is standing committee, appointed
yearly-was instructed to use its influence
to secure, as much as possible, the enforce
ment of the ey'stipg temperance law
both Of the state aud city, and was also
instructed to take action IN every case
wAich come to their knowledge in which a
violation of the liquor law is apparent A
committee consisting of Mrs. Cherry, Mrs.
Kent and Miss Wilson was appointed to visit
those members of the club who have Of late
failed to attend the meetings, and attempt to
awaken new interest among them. The
report of the treasurer was then read and
adopted which showed that there was &
balance Of S. 81 in the treasury and no
unpaid bills against the club. The at.
tendance was larger than it had been tor
some weeks previous and the members
present-one and all-exhiblted a deter
mination and interest in the temperance
work, such as has not characterized their
meetings for some time.
