The game was very friendly though hotly contest- ed reslting in avictorj for the "Stars" by 17 to 12 runs in nine innings- The home team provided a luncheon at the Markdale House after which tbe yisiting Club took their leave highly pleased with the treatment they re- ceived. OASDEN PABTT. The English Church S. S. garden party held at the residence of Wm. Lucas, Esq., was largely attended and much enjoyed.

EDITORIAL NOTES. â€" The Queen's Jubilee was celebrat- ed in a most enthusiastic manner all over the Empire and also in other Lands. â€" A young man named James Coutts was killed and two gunneis seriously JEJured by a premature discharge while firing a royal salute from the connon. â€" The Presbyterian Reviewâ€" pub- lished in Toronto by the Presbyterian News Co. â€" is enlarged and very much improved, being now the cheapest de- nominational newspaper for its size in Canada. â€" The Toronto Mail has recently been giving interesting illustrated sketches of various towns and their leading business men and business places. Churches, Schools c. Their tarvelling agent was in Owen Sound last Week on that business. â€" Manitoba is moving with tbe times. Followmg the example of the older provinces, the Legislature has passed an amendment to the municipal act, giving to all femalea who are pro- perty holders whether married or not the right to vote at municipal elections. This is but an act of justice. Women who pay taxes should have the same right B amen. â€"The question of "Sabbath Observance" has engaged the attention of the various Chdreb "parliaiaents" recently, and the arguments ha-ve been l^gical, forcible and decisive in the direction of enforcing a strict observ- ance of the "day of rest." Tbe laws of natnre, as well as experience and Ihe commands in Scripture all say it i:; good, profitable and r^ht to rest the seventh day. â€" The various annual Assemblies of the different denominations which hnve been convened in numerous parts of the Dominion recently have given no uncertain sound on the pro- hibition questiop, and though the fight again^ the great evilâ€" aiehguor tvaflSoâ€" is a hard on«, and its su^aor- ters^nii«crnp«l'.ii8. yet flie ^Miibitiqn EoolpftMit ia^rowipg, antf «^tr-it ia ^1^r«e Iwg be iajri|ci«nt clasw^ *ixf^ iJOTM irem our lat^ " mupf J^resbyteriaaCsteh of Canada m«i in Winnipeg Um^ week!

Messengers were sent to Tobermorey where a boat was secaijed which took the passengers (some 75 pe^rsons) wi tj Owen Bounds The vessel was laden with 80,000 bushels wheat, part of wh|ph tWas thrown overboard. The boat was released from her perilous condition some days after with the assistance of a tug, and arrived at Owen Sound on Monday last none the worse. â€" Canon Demoulin, Bector of St. James' Church, Toronto, after touch, ing logically on the moral and reUgiouE aspects of Sunday Street Cars â€" in the course of a sermon recently- wound un the following pertinent paragraph â€" "We have said nothing of the argu- ment about Sabbath desecration, No work which is really promotive of men's physical, mental and moral well-being can be desecrating when- ever or wherever it is performed. Even under Judaism, "the Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the babbath."
