The musicians were Assisted by their old? friend Mr. E. Mason who is tak- ing a few days holidIays befOre his retum to Stayne'r. The Queen’s Plate of 50 guineas was on Satwrday won on the Wood- bine by Mr. Hendrie, the wehl known Hamilton turf man. For the eight pveviov-s years it had been won by MT. Seagram of Waterloo. The Metropolitan Railway occomâ€" modation was pretty well taxed on the Queen‘s Birthday and‘ it is said that between 3,000 and 4.000 patron- ized the line between TorOnto and Richmond Hill. A fast and exciting lacrosse match took «place last Saturday on the park between the Maintos (of Tor- onto) and the Richmond! Hill Jun- iors. The Mintos were good shots and did some good fielding but were surpassed by the comlbinwation of the home team and the game ended 2 to l for Richmond Hill. The visitors remarked while leaving that they were used fine and that they hoped at some future time to meet the Hill boys agarin. The home team linedl up as follows: Goal. F. Storey; R. Goode, F.

The Presbyterian congregation will resume worship in the auditor- ium of the church on next Sunday. The interior has just been beauti- fully i‘Ieâ€"tinted and varnished and presents quite a new and attractive appearance. Fine weather and re- newed conditions should see the con- gregation present en masse at each service hereafter. Another prominent citizen has crossed the bar. After a lingering i’ll‘ness Mr. J. A. E. Switzer passed away early Tuesday morning sur- rounded by his wife and daughters. Although of a quiet and retiring dis- position he was always willing- and anxious to add in any undertaking for the benefit of the Village, and he will be greatly missed as a cit- izen, and particularly in the Metho- dist Church. He was a member of the Royal Templars and the A.0.U. W. and! was for many yea-rs prom- inently connected with the Board of Education. He was recording stew- ard for the Methodist circuit, had long‘ been a. class leader in the Church, and was superintendent in the Sabbath School until his health compelled him to retire. Mr. Swit- zer, who was born in the County of Peel, came to this Village in 1872 and for three years was Principal of the Public School. In 1876 he married Elizabeth A., daughter of the late Wm. Atkinson, and in the same year became a member of the mercantile firm, afterwards known as Atkinson & Switzer. The fun- eral will take place on Friday.
