It appears the company after arriving at the hunting ground, separ- ated, each one taking a separate road, About 1 o’clock, Mr. McEachern, anx- ious to discover his comrades, placed his rifle and shotgun, both of which were carried by him, in the snow. In a moments time, the rifle which was standing upright, fell against the standing shotgun, causing fire, which led the contents to enter Mr. McEach- ern’s left arm just about the shoulder, causing a most thrilling accident, and shattering his arm to a most horrible sight. His shouts soon brought his companions, who were horrified to find their poor comrade in such a pitiful condition. He was at once taken to Mr. A. H. Campbell’s and medical aid was at once summoned. Drs. Galla- way, McKay and Grant were soon called in. After a close examination the arm was taken off close to the shoulder and the wound dressed nice- ly. Mr. McEachern is a. young man of strictly temperate habits and is much respected by all who know him. Great sympathy is felt for him through- out the entire community.

Brrmuous COAL. -- A splendid specimen of Ontario coal was shown to theExsmnuzn this morning by Mr. E. F. Coxwell, proprietor and explorer for the Ontario Mining Company. The sample came from a spot not many miles from Peterboro. It is bitumious and burns readily. giving forth an intense heat. In quality it resembles the Manitoba mineral, though it grades better than the latter and will make excellent fuel for a grate. From what can be learned the coal lies in a bed 60x200 feet in breadth and length, and its depth will determine the value of the find. which Mr. Coxwell classes as one of the most important in the mining history of the Province. The coal bed will be prospected and opened up as soon as the snow clears away. The advantages which would occur to Peter- boro, if a coal bed of any considerable yield was located in the vicinity. would he immense and the outcome of the prospect- or’s investigation will he awaited with no inconsiderable interest.

Why the council is so backward in allowing the admiring public to inspect it is more than we and most people can understand.
