A FLYING CONTACT On Sunday last a young man from the country thought he would have some fun coasting with his bicycle down the runway in McTavish's garage leading down from the second story and out onto the street. This runway is used for taking cars up to the second story and is quite steep. It offered a great thriller for both coaster and spectators, and ev- idenced the great bravery of the young man in question. I we are informed the brothers had ' not been on the best of terms. About six o'clock p.m., jangling among one another began at the house, the rum- pus involving Milton, Walter and Jack Hare (the latter who had been help ing his brothers that day) and Mrs. Milton Hare. In an enraged fury Walter un- dertook to beat his brother Milton and succeeded in doing so with the aid of domestic missies (dish pans, tea kettles, etc.) while brother Jack was helping Walter by keeping Mrs. Hare from endeavoring to help her husband. When Constable Wilson arrived on the scene, he found Milton Several of these exhibitions had ' in a verv bad condition, gashes on the been pulled off and another was in head and faae and bruises, inflicted in progress when a car happened alone the turmoil which lasted about half ._ _ _. i * * .. ~ ** . _ L . . . : i .

The wheel struck the car fender, crumpled up the bike wheel and the brave young man took a flying shunt clean over the car alighting on the road on the other side. A little adhesive plaster was all the young man required but the bike needed more. ALTERATIONS ON BUILDING Mr. \V. A. Armstrong is making considerable alterations in the build- on Sydenham street, formerly occu- pied by the late R. J. Sproule, and now used by Mr. S. E. deCudmore as an insurance office.

Constable Wilson returned here bring- ing Milton and his wife with him, where medical aid was given the for- mer, who was in a very weak condi- tion. Several stitches were required to close the wounds. After medical attention was given he was removed to his home. Creemore Star.
