For some ti'Uie the fire of qioss-tab'le criti­ cism ra.ged funiotisly, but eventually it spent itself, though 'the siifnuldering continued to the end of ineimeeUng, and liitleifuol would have been necessary to renew lliei blane. And what did it aifl amount to? Simply this: that if the m.anaguns would only do the insuj-iug the Education Committee would find lire cash for the premiums. The argument of tbei inan;iget;> was that il the education authority had to find the money why iiol take out the policius; that of the Town Council on the advice of the Town Clerk was that the managers are the einr ployersy hence they are the only pei'jplo with an insurable rntefiest.

There should be no deficiency of life and


gaiety in ClMheroe to-morrow. Our visk- or.s are not confined toi the railway men from Liverpool, but in addition the North- Weateiiii Federatmni of I''orestei|s are due in the tO'Wn. The tw|o Ipcal Courts— Royal Castle and RlbblesdaJe (Waddington)— with Mr. T. Davies and Mr. J. Herd as joint secretaries, have made full arrange- meuts for their reception. Forestry Will be much in evidence, for the great meeting that is to take place will be preceded by a procession through the principal thorough­ fares.

The leadilnig present and past offi­ cers in the Order, including tlie P.ast ChStef Ranger, Mir. Hulse, of Clilesl'cr, are expect-

When the chaise of the stag and t'lie hare


is over there is otter hunting '■ to fall back upon,.” if the phrase be pdrinissible, “ for verily,” said a huntisman the other day, *' ulvere is more fun hunting the otter tha'ir eitlier of the others ”— with the proviso, I suppoiso, that an otteir is “ located.” For a b.arren otter hunt is as tame an affair as one can well imagine, the excitetnent barng .as intense as on a:n a.vor.age picnic. To­ morrow morning the Cumberland Otteir Hoiiitds hegi'n a Series of hunts on the R,ib- b'lie.

❖ ❖ ❖ There is coiisider.able uneasiness .oinong.st


the coimiry jjeople living iln' tlie neighhonr- hood of Duttoiii near Ri'bchester, owing lo the fact that' Che burglar wlijt last week broke into Ribchester Workhouse is still at I.T(rge, and has paid nocturnal visits to several farmsteads in the vicinity, taking one or two articles of small! value. Dutllon is an extensive but thirily popiflaited parisht and the farmH iki most cases lie a consider­ able distance apart.


The subject of school gardeiiH hais been


considered by a sub-committee of the Lan- casltire Education Committeie.

Safe and Keliable.


Saturday was what the dtecriplive^^ re-


pooiteir descrilhes as “ a red letter day ’ ih the history of 'Methodism ih Waddmigton'. There is no getting beyond thie fact th'at the Wesleyans in thalt village are not allony,- ing the grass to gitorv under their feet in the matter of their new dhapef memorial stones concerning which were laid in weath­ er which oould hardly be called propitious on Saturday. While malray pejople would be still thinking about it Waddington will! ■ have its new chapel— or shduSd it be church? Accarding to 'M!r- Clough M.P. •the NoncoWformists as far as possible ape the Chiirdh of England and tlie latter that of Rome, in trying to make names and thlles somrd bigger. That is a question on which there will be divem opinions. In any cape no good can come of di.scu.ss'iing it. Suffice i t to .«Lv that calll it what you will the Wad­ dington Wesleyans intend to have a builld- ing that will do credit to the village.


While a. re.aisonable amoiunit of latitude


must be adowed to per^ns in charge of horstis or c.adtie— oithenvisc it would often be impossible to accomplish the object in view—^it is still necessary at times to te.ic'h a sallutary lesson to thope who seem to re­ gard dimrb animaLs as speciailly made for flogging purposes. Few people wall qua.r- rel with lihe actidu of the Cliitherqe County bench on Monday in sending to gaol two brutal carters. I nieed not hare go into the facts, which are reported eilscwherei, but it may be observed that the evidence showed the ntendto be nilfPL- tlian ordinafilliy callous. In such cases fines do HlJtllo good— ;i taiste of the 'same tiyeallment a,d- mi'ifcitered to the dumb animals would be most effective— but it .affords at least somie satisfaction to know (Ihait the justices had the power to sdnd the offenders to gaiol and th.tt they exerdse this prerogattve. Per­ haps wdicn tho men afe liberated they wiM


leave prison’s ptecinctis more kindly disposed towards what a.i1e afte(r all their best friends.


Apropos the county cases at Clitheroe on


Monday it is interesting to note that tli.o magistrates were occupied most of the .aflbr- noon in he.aring a. case to decide whleither a' in.an was or was nidt drunk. Of all thiinigs thi-s is the mopt vexed question on which the Great Unpaid are called upon to adjudicate. It all. of course, depends upon the view taken: by the observer.


.A man


mav a.ppear to be .sober to olne indi\ndiia!l while to another he undoubtedly seams to be drunk. Then who shall decide?


i f


justices acted on the lines of a certain, wl'Iiy magistrates’ cl'erk, who drew up the foliow- iing to get out of a dilemma, then how many would escape punishment for their offences ? Not drunk is he w'ho from the floor Can, rise again and stilll drink moyile;. But drunk is he who proptrate lies. Without the flower to drink or rise.


Old Clitheroe residents 'ivil'l join in con-


gratulabipns to Miss Wardle. of Ch.atburn, on attai'iiing her birthday to-day. The venerable lady is 86 years of age <a'nd en­


joys good health. Her reminiscences of Clitherqe in (he days of her girlhood are most interesting. She and he|r la,l(ely de­ feased bibther htive ajlwa^'s lived together and h.ave led a very quiet and unassuming


lliife. She is first cousin of Sir Thomas Wardle, IC.C.B.,. silk manufacturer, of Leek in Sbiffordshire, and sister of the late Mrs. Henry Bulcock, of Clithisroe. who died a few I'etirs ago.


.Smart Styles Redmavnes. The Board of Education have reecntly

’Haworth, Who took his


benefit last Saturday, and who 'has signed dm for Olitheroe for the next season^ has had a remarkable run of 'success so far this


■ season, espeoiaJ'ly when one considers tha poor cricket weather that we aite having. Not only has he shbtvn his old form in batting, but has made a wonderful imppave- mient in his bowling, having taken 28 wick­ ets at a cost of 159 runs. The Olitheroe Cricket Club had no hesitation in allowing Hawortli to take full aidva.ntage of the m- vitabion -extended to him, which may lead to greater things. The match against Durham is at Sunderland on Monday anid Tuesday, and against Northumberland 'at Newcastle on Thursday and Friday, hence it will not interfere with his playing engage­ ment at Clitheroe. There will be un a * mouse hope amongst aiH local sportsmen that Haworth may meet with the success he


so richly deserves. Haworth, who is now iln his fourth


season with the Clitheroe club, joined the team from Church, and has proved ode of the inlost popular .and successful profession­


als the club has ever had. He is one of the finest batsmen hi title


Ribblesdale League, h'eadling the list last season with an average of 32, .aimd this season with an average of over 40.
