    the subscribers to the fund is , by permission , to be placed in the archives of the Cathedral .

    Subscri JL ptions should be sent to Mr . R . B . Marston , the editor of the Fishing Gazette .

    Another proposed memorial deserves more than a passing word . The Lord Bishop of

    JL <_ 7 L Sarum has suggested that something should be done for the memory % / of the Rev . Willia m

    Barnes , the ' Dorset Poet , * whose death we chronicled a short time ago . This appeal is

    a strong one to the wide circle of Mr . Barnes ' readers , in fact to all lovers of genuine English

    speech and homely English manners . The Bishop JL selects a very «/ good O examp J . le in the

    following : Zoo now mid nwone ov us vorget

    The pattern our vorefathers zet ; But each be fain to underteake Some work to meake vor others' gai ' n

    , That we mid leave mwore good to sheare , Less ills to bear , less souls to grieve , An' when our hands do vail to rest

    It mid be vrom a work , a-blest . , Mr . H . J . Moule , Dorchester , is the secretary

    to the fund . The Queen has been graciously pleased to

    accept a copy of Mr . Walter Montagu Kerr ' s book of travels , entitled 'The Far Interior . '

    The presentation was made through Lord Frederic Kerr . —Morning Post .

    The annual dinner of Messrs . W . H . Smith & Sons' staff cricket club was held at the

    Holborn Restaurant on Saturday , the 6 th inst ., and a very successful affair it was . Most of

    t / the heads of departments were present . The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News has

    given a group of portraits of those who took a part X in the proceedings JL CJ . Some of the por A-

    traits can hardly be spoken of as ' striking likenesses , ' hut , on the whole , the p icture is

    very interesting . Sunday school teachers and others who

    wish to purchase reward cards should certainly see those published by the Society for

    Pro-Am / % J mofcing Christian Knowledge . The cards are exceptionally attractive .

    On the 25 th of this month Messrs . Henry Stevens UIOTCI 1 O & \ Xj Son kJUll will VV IXL publish JJ UL IL » 1 XOI 1 . a Oi very VC 1 J interesting llllClCOtlllg
