After spending a very enjoyable evening the brethren separated at 11 p. m. , Entrance Examination. The papers at the Entrance Examination- this year were on the whole exceedingly fair. One notable exce tion was History, which was absurdly di cult, one or two candidates for first-class certicates having expressed the opinion that it was (so far as it went) really as diicult as that set for them. `A new departure also was made by giving more questions on each paper than were necessary to make up the maximum, thus giving the candidate a choice of questions. As a result of this one Candidate obtained 110 marks in Arithmetic, the maxi- mum bein 100. As an offset of this (which was undou tedly a step in the right direction) we learn that all the papers had to be special- ly marked for writing and neatness, for spelling `and for literature. This sort of thing is quite right at a University exami- nation. and is probably wise at an exami- nation for teachers certicates, but it is an absurd incon ruity at an examination which is simply to iscover whether the candidate :. m. t. mil. fit to benet bv 8 High School 18 Illnply to (uncover wuuuuur one Unuusuuvo is or is not t to benet by a High School education.

Last Saturday evening Mr. William Short- reed, brother of Thomas Shortreed. Esq.. of this town, was drowned at Hillsdale. He went to the mill pond to have aswim, a little nephew accompanying him. It appears that the little fellow went home, which is half-a mile fromthe scene of the drowning, and said he had become tired of waiting for his uncle and thought he would go home. Nothing wasthought of this. but at length some boys passing by the pond saw the man's clothesnand went to Mr. Short:-eed s and gave the alarm. The little fellow before spoken of was then taken to the pond and pointed to the spot where he had last seen his uncle, and there the body was found. The deceased was an excellent swimmer and a large, nely developed man. VVhether he was seized with cramps or the nervous system had received a shock which rendered him powerless in the water is not known. He was about30 years of age. His body was brought to Barrie by Mr. Smith, the undertaker, and shipped by train to Guelph, where he formerly resided and where his parents now live. -Ba.1-gains in whi nd grey cottons at W. R.
