Pym, who for many years has been the con- ductor on our train. has. it is reported. decided to resign, his health not per- mitting him to continue railway work. On Wednesday evening last Mrs. Pym. who has always taken a leading part in :he education and moral and religions training of the children of the village invited all the young folks to spend the evening with her. and a very happy party was the result.

A waous YOUTu.â€"-Thursday morning during recess at Centre-at. public school while the boys were at play, Albert Short and Leslie Welsh got into a dispute and durlng the scnflle which ‘ensued Short was thrown to the ground by his oppon- ent, who afterwards proceeded to Hal: the fallen boy about the head. The boy's screams brought everyone in the nelgh borhood t3 the scene. and every endeavor was made to stop the flow of blood. The little fellow’s eyes were swollen and bleed- ing and it is not yet certain that the sight will not be affected. He was sent ‘ to his home by the teacher. Such bar? barous conduct should not be tolerated in any school for a moment and any boy who will do such an act at this tender age has a great deal to fear from his own actions should he ever arrive at man’s estate. Prompt measures should be put into force to prevent a repetition of an occurence which is a disgrace to any com- munity, and by making an example 01 boys of this temperament lessons in a marked degree the ofl'ence being repeated in the future. NARROW Emmaâ€"On Tuesday morn- ing about 8 o’clock Mrs. David McMillan sent her eight year old daughter down stairs to light the coal oil stove in order to prepare breakfast. A few minutes afterwards the mother was terrified by a scream from the little girl and upon hurrylng down stairs found that the stove had exploded, and the house. was rapidly filling with smoke. From the win’dow Mrs. MeMillau gave the alarm and soon Mr. Glenny, who was in the stable. was on the scene. He was nnab‘e to gain admittance for the doors were all fastened up and the inmates of the house were bewildered. When he at lest we ceeded in afl‘ecting an entrance the piac. ‘ was so densly fiLied with smoke that u was suffocating. Mr. Glenny asked after rhe other children and the distressed mother had almost fcr tten that such exis‘ed. however she pi oted Mr. Glenn; upstairs amid the smoke and groupins h s way four children were found sleeping peacefully. They were got down stain as soon as possible, but perhaps none too soon for as it was the smoke‘had made them very ill. While this was going on upstairs a neighbor named Thee.

The questions upcn which! there is any difi'erence of opinion between Mr. Jarvis and the city are all pracl'cally settled except, perhaps, one, which is however, of minor importance.

PROJECTED Runwn.â€"â€"1‘n_e MOWU politan Railway Company of Toronto, whose line on Yonge-st. at present terminates at the northern iimits 01' the town 02 Richmond Hill, c0ntemplatc- making extensions to the road which they believe will have the effect of bringing an immense amount of trade to Toronto, besides opening up an im- mence trazt of country in the County of York and neighboring districts. Already operations have been commen- ced and the line has been surveyed through to Lake Simooe. It is pro posed to finish the railway through t. Aurora this fall. When completed the railway will extend northward to Lake Simcoe. westward to Schomberg ind north-east to Jackson’s Point. Roach’s Point and Beaverton, taking m the principal summer resorts along the lake shore and the diflerent towns and villages en route. The undertak= iog is a big one. but the company are confident of success. At the head {cf the project are such men as Mr Charles D. Warren, president of the Traders’ Bank, and the company will directly super 'nt :nd the building of the entire line. In addition to a regular passenger service there will be special trains intended exclusively for light lit-eight, such as milk, butter, eggs, fruit,vegatables and small farm produce a generally. The solicitors of the com- pany are at present making enquiries as to how far the railway act wil: affect the question of taxation. Under this act locomotive railways cannot, in the country, be assessed for improvments but only for land at the rate of farm property at so much per acre. Should the electric road come under the same law there will be no delay in pushing forward the exten- sions. OUR FAcrORY.â€"â€"Bobcaygeon is the amt. There is not another such place in whole universe. That is a. self evi- dent fact, for there can be but one hub. Chicago considers itself some thing. but it is merely the ornamental grease? stopper for the hub, and shock ingly filthy it gets around the edges. Bobcsygeon’s reputation is the envy of the whole world. Bobcsygeon is the synonym of perfection, it is the pure cheese, and Franklin, Pennsylva- nis, is one of the places that grace. fully acknowledges Bobcaygeon’s cheesey perfection. Yes, sir. Last year Mr. harry Lsmberton of Fraklin obtained a cheese from the Bobcaygeon factory, and the name of LambertOn became famous througont the States. Strangers would send in their cards, even after midnight, begging the priv- iiiege of a. taste of the Bobcsygeon ‘cheese. The guest distinguished ladies of the surrounding States, worked all manner of schemes to attain invita- tions to Mrs. Lamberton’s five o’clock cheese parties. Generals, senators and politicians insisted upon calling Mr. Lsmberton Harry, old men, and dear boy, and slmost insisted upon his running for governor, but fortunately for Mr. Lsmberton he had broken a leg end wei not in extra. twist for running. Agfinthis week, Mr. J. C Anderson, the skilled muddler of milk' at the factory. has shipped another cheese to Mr.‘ Lsinherttm, end this time next week Boboeygeon will he on the lips of thousands of the most intelligent mm jgudthe’ niost bountiful ‘ women 0! ‘Penn'syl‘vgnio.

Lily Taylor of Bracebridge wants back her daughter Lottie, who, when she was in rather poor circumstances, was entrusted by her to Mrs. Scott. of Park dale, under a legally drawn up document. 011 one occasion Mrs. Taylor succeeded In getting the child away from Mrs. Scott, but was forced by a writ of habea:I corpus to restore her to the foster parent. She has now entered an action to set iside the agreement and recover damages for the detention of chi d. The case came before Mr. J ustire Ergnson Tues- . day morning. at Osgoode Hall. and was Adjourned until nexr week. when another judge will be sitting. Justice Ferguson decided not to hear the case himself owing to the fact that it was he who granted the writ of harbeas corpus. RIPE Smwsnnnms. â€"- Mr. J. C.
