WIS TAKING 1 eT ENGINEER WAS DOING FIRE. MAN'S DUTIES. Failed to Notice Distance Which Ss.parated His Train From An- other--Injured Passengers Are Dong Well. Quebec, Jan, 15-A searching in vestigation has just been held into the causes of the accident on the LCR. at St; Michael, Bellechasse, as a re "ult of which twenty people were more or less injured. Mt is understood that the accident was due to the fact that the engineer was performing the du- ties of his fireman, who was so tired that he was taking a rest. The engi- neer, who -is a model employee, was engaged in shovelling coal into the Dirnace and failed to notice the dis- tance which separated his train from the market train, which was standing at the station at St. Michael. All the passengers injured in the accident are doing' well, A fatal. accident befell a resident of St. Lazate, county of Bellechasse, a couple of days ago. Joseph Braghu. aged thirly-seven years, and father of ov family. employed in the saw mill of Joseph Goulet, attempted to replace a hell upon a wheel, when his clothing a Mile QUEER ICE-BOAT BUILT Hpsans Travels Over Minute. St. John, N.B., Jan. 15.--A novelty in the way of an ice boat was recent- | lv built by Beverly Heans, and is now, lying at Millidgeville. The Flip, as | she is called, is practically a yacht | on skates and is built to sail on] either ice or water. An odd feature of the Flip is that she has no rudder, | the stéering being done by the ib. The Winter so far has been an. ideal one for, ice-boating: for séveral days lof each week since the winter set nl good ice-hoating has bee available, s and the owners of boat ve had plenty of opportunity to enjoy the sporti : The Kennebeccasis has always been the headquarters for tls sport, and in its revival. it seems that river again has the preference. A little fleet of five ice boats is now lying at Millidgeville. One of these craft is owned by Con, McCluskey, the veteran E BRITISH THE DAILY ice yachtsman of these parts. The largest of the fleet is owned by Fred- erick Heans, who has the record for aj run to Rothesay from Millidgeville, having covered the distance to that place "and 'back, a distance of eigh- teen miles, in seventeen and one-half minutes.
