Hog Cholera. /. Until recentlv Mr. Geo. Forester, one of the well-to-do farmers in the vicinity of Gormley, Markham, bad a fine hard of hogs. Unfortunately, a short time ago they were stricken with a disease which is termed hog cholera. More than a. dozen of them died, and the case being referred to the Health Department, the Provincial Inapeotor order- ed the rest or the hog»: to be destroyed. Mr. Forester had bought. some of the bugs in Toronto and it is thought. that this is the source of the trouble. We understand the g-Wurnmeut allows a percentage on animals which have to be Jeutroyed by order of the department. The annual report of the Richmond Hxll Methodist church for the year ending May lst. just printed, shows a successful year for that body.

A meeling of those interested in football was held in the Lorne Hall bn Thursday evemua. Mr. A. E. Coombs occupiod the chair, and Mr. W. Glass acted as seen-wry.

Cooper. F. Graingor. On motion of Mr. G. Cooper, seconded by Mr. F. Rutherford, it was decided to leave the selection of the first eleven playei's in the bands of the committee of management. The question of sending uut challenges to surrounding clubs was left over for future consideration. Lovers of our national game will he pleas- ed to know that a revival of the spirit of the invincible Young Canadians has taken place and that our village bids fair to be the home of a championship lacrosse club in the near future. For the last three weeks the young men 0! the village have been at work at the park preparinn themselves for the season's work, and are now in condition, wind and limb. to meet all corners of their class. The first match of the championship series I will he played here on Saturday. June 6th. against the 'L'ecumsehe II. A well contested and exciting game is expected as both teams are determined to Win. There is no lack of material for a first-class team in the village and the players one and all are working like , beavers to accomplish the desired end. It ’ is hoped that the citizens will turn out in large numbers at every match to encourage the boys. as additional expense has been gone to in purchasing new uniforms and in fitting cut new dressing rooms. Season tickets admitting holder to all club matches played on the park may be obtained from any of the memlers of the club for the nom- inal price of one dollar ; membership fee is fifty cams. The investment is a good one. Don't forget the ob Impiunship match, '1 ecumseh 11 against Richmond Hill, on ‘ ‘ Sunscrday, June 6th. ‘ Methodist Church Kapott. Pomical M cetings Victoria Square.

Never was a better programme presented to a Richmond Hill nadir-rice than that given in connection with the Agricultural Concert in the skating rink on Monday evening. That there was a large number of people in the hall may be judged from the fact that the proceeds amounted to about $175. No better chairman could have been selected for the occasion than Mr. Frank Danton, whose'chserful. patriotic and elo- quent remarks, so appropriate at the open- ing, won for him the respect rind esteem of his h.-arers. At the close of his remarks the audience, by request. rose to their feet and sang heartily " God Save the Queen.” Prof. F. E. Karn. assisted by Prof. Boudo, then commenced the programme proper by giving a number of sleight of hand perfor- mancss, and both pleased and deserved the spectators by their extraordinary dexterity. Miss Alice Burrnweu. who is a mezzo-soprano singer with a good voice and a good stage presence, followed with a selection, “ Loch Lomond," which was encored. Then Miss Jessie Alexander was introduced. and it is needless to say that applause both preceded and followed this distinguished elocutionist. Her first selection in which she related anumber of anecdotes and Witty sayings told her by Mr. Johnston, the Scotch stage driver, on her recent trip to Scotland, was very amusing and very cleverly given. Other selections were equally iutnrosting, but Miss Alexander excels in presenting good rich Scotch humor. and in portraying the symplicitv of childhood, which was proven by the recitation, " Friday Afternoon ‘ in a Primary School.” The national dances by Miss Maggi» Bunch and Muster Mishnw. ex. cuted in a quiet. modest manner, were evrdently appreciated, and they were en- cored, as were all the other performers. But the reel humorist of the evening was Mr. T. A. Baker, whose comic and harmless»; songs kept the audience in the best of humor. and he was encored again and again In fact be fairly “ brought down the house," and hundreds of both sexes made no effort ‘ to control their desire to laugh until their sides must have ached. Mr. Baker is one of the most enthnsmslic comics before the public and his efforts to please his audience is most successful. And, last but not least, reference must be made to the accomplished pianist, Mrs. lit Weir, whose accompaniments on the piano for several of the performers were admired by all. She is a musician of more than oruinary ability, and her willingness to appear so many times on the programme was very commendable. It must be said that each and every performer labored under diflicul- ties, as during nearly the entire entertain- ment the rain came down in torrents on the roof of the building, making it very difficult to hear these who took part. At the close the chairman thanked the audience for the very good attention during the evening, and really with the exception of it it little commotion in the rear of the hall the order was excellent. considering the noise of the storm outside. and the discom- fort caused by the water flooding the west part of the floor of lhe ball. A most enjoy- able concert wus concluded by singing the National Anthem. FULKRARDâ€"On the 2nd con. Vaughan, on Satur- day. May 23rd. the wife of John Folkeurd, o: a. sen.
