He Was Thrown Out on Roadway and Had His Head Cut--Was Return- ing Home From Trip to the Coun- try. Frightened by an automohile, late on Wednesday afternoon, a horse owned by William ' Woods, of 26i University avenue, made a sudden bolt which caused the breuking of a whitletree. Mr. Woods was thrown out against the side of the road and suffered a severe cut on the top of his head, as well as a bad shaking up. He had a miraculous escape irom death. His injuries are most pain- ful, but it is not expected that they will prove serious. 2 Mr. Woods had been out in the coun- try on business and was returning bome when the accident happened. His horses have always been very much afraid of automobiles, so when Mr. Woods reached the corner of Division and Main streets and noticed the car of H. W. Newman coming along he endeavored to get on tw Main street, so a' to allow the car to pass. How- ever, too sharp a turn was made, with Some of the aldermen didn't like the iden of the city going into railway work. It had never built a railway line before, and Ald. Carson, a mem er of the industries committee, said he didn't think the city council 'would sore to begin at this stage of the city's history. That's all the moré reason why vou -should build the switeh,"" Mr Cushman sdid. "If the eity had pro vided railway e+ site before, the probability is the site would long ago have utilized by smelting concerns." "Well, | don't think the city council would pass the proposition as it stanls it present," said AM, Carson. "Well if vou don't care to that been accept, better whiel proposition from that offers us a free site with way facilities and exemption from tax- ation. 1 wish, however, smelting plant in Kingston, which acted so generously with me before, We'll do nothing regarding the Deser onto offer until the Kingston city council turns down our proposition." This was a further statement made by Mr. Cushman, David Murray, a member of the com- pany, and manager of the Northern Crown bank, of this city, stated that he was present to hand over a cheque to the eity as soon as the company's offer was accepted. The company had lots of money in the hank, he gaid, and the $3,000 land purchase money would be pail over at any time. Ald. Graham wanted to know muck it would cost to build switch, and- Mr. Cushman said town, how the that switch would cost $3,000 It was then suggested by son that instead of the city building the switch, it should give the com- pany the land for nothing, and leave tha 'building of the switch to thé com Ald. Car of pany . Nr. Cushman pointed out thai the city council would have to submit a haelaw to the people hefore the pre perty could be given away. The com- pany had made an offer to the city that it thought to be best for all concerned, Ald. Harrison said that if the build ing of the switch wag left to the com- pany, it would own it, and other in- fustries coming in afterwards and set- tling on the balance of the property could be held up, as the city would have no direct railway facilities to of- for. It would be better, he thought, for the ¢ity to build ands own the switch. Then it could allow other com: panes to use it. . Mr. Cushman and Mr. Murray that was the proper Way to look at the question. Their company didn't care who might build the switch, bat thought it would be better for the city to do il. They would be satisfied to accept the purchase price of the land in lieu of the city building the switch. Ald. Graham said that' the commit- tees wanted to make such concessions to the company as would pass council without any hiteh. M:. Murray remarked that the com. pany considered it was doing the city a favor in asking it to take care of the switeh question, Ald. Hoag suggested that a small committee shiuld be appointed to talk over the matter with the company's re wesentatives and conmle to agreement regarding the matter. After some further discussion it was decided to appoint Alds. Graham, Carson and Bailey, along with the city solicitor, to arrive at some agreement and re- port back to the joint committee, on Friday afternoon. An agreement and hy-law will be submitted to the city courcil, on Monday evening, Mr. Cushman said that the smelter would he working by October 1st next. Ii the company Faia to carry out agreement, the city is to receive hack the Inmed and also all the buildings on it for the amount of the purchase money, $3,000. Mr. Cushman declared, however, that the smelter would be working after he and every member of the committee were dead. The com- pany didn't want exemption from tax. ation. It was prepared to pay its way, Kingston, however, would benefit greatly by the smelter, and it was only fair that it should make some covcessions. Anothec thing the com- pany asked was that the £300 for. feitedd a couple of years ago hy Stanley Smelter company be applied on the purchase price of the land. Ladies' Auxiliary. At the regular meeting of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Hotel Dien Mrs D. O'Leary and Mrs. DD. J. Mil ian were nominated for the position viewpresident. The vote will be taken at the next meeting, which will sail month. Outside of routine matters there was no other business hefore the meeting.

Butit. : Wasn't our fault . we were like a housekeeper, who had a good cook, and a careful housemaid, and a well kept house, but got hornswoggled by the butcher. We paid the price but didn't get the goods. And for a little while we made you do the same, But you bet, it didn't last; we reared up on oyr hind legs and chased that butch-| er clean off the lot and then we hustled around and got the best butcher in the whole bailliwick, and the housekeeper is now putting on a meat ef motion pictures that will make your mouth water, It be- gins to-morrow. » The Bijou hasits troubles but you can't keep it down So now, if you feel sore at the bum show we have been giving you, we'll make it square. Come around with another nickel, and we'll give you the worth of it. The Bijou's New Bill of Fare VITAGRAPH PICTURE DRAMAS. --Since we used to show Vita: graph productions about two years ago, vast progress has been made by this company. Their Studios are now the most splendid in America. Thejr private company of actors, including Florence Turner, "The Vitagraph Girl" is unexcelled, and their pictures the most splendidly staged of any in America. KALEM'S CANADIAN SUBJECTS.--After a lapse of some months, we are delighted once more to be able to present the productions of the famous Kalem company, one of the most enterprising In the world. The Kalems are now engaged in making dramas in Canada, and we hope soon to present them. The first will be entitled "PFight- ing the Iroquois in Canada." This is the company which prodiced the great Quebec drama, "A Priest of the Wilderness." LUBIN'S COMEDIES.--The Lubins have just completed a new addi- tional factory. They are easily first in the production of American comedy, and their best efforts will be seen in The Bijou. PATHE'S FILMS OF ART.--The works of the great master, Charles Pathe, of Paris, France, were always in the very first rank, but of late special eforts have been made to cater to the American and Canadian public, and the Pathe films have, therefore, increased ten- fold in interest. The most celebrated actors of Burope may be seen in these film-pictures, and for magnificence of display no makers equal to the Pathe's. LAEMMLE'S DRAMAS OF THE HEART.--The splendid human nature dramas of this maker, known as the "Imps," with Plorence Lawrence as leading lady, are world famous, and from time to time will be shown at The Bijou Say, Isn't That a Great Combination, But whisper in your ear and be mum We give you this in mall type, #0 keep It dark. These film dealers are the ver ickens When sn exhibitor goes after them to get flims. he's just like a poor little yellow gosling, pinned up in a fence corner by a bunch of red-mouthed, red headed ravening foxes.

So come around and see us and bring your nickle with you. Of course, there's onie thing about pictures that's the same whether they're wobbling around on a white screen or painted in oils by Michaelangelo} Botticelli, or Dan Fowler up on Amherst Island. What pleases one} won't please another, but if our pictures don't please you to-day, it's ten to one they will tickle you out of your. mind to-morrow. fo come along, and remember that if our show lun't all we say it is be} cause we have been "Worked Again," so don't blame us. | But we came to life every time | | | Blame it on the Butcher 4 -
