April 9. â€" Quite an excitement “as created on Friday morning when two of our townsmen ~â€".inhn Gallagher and Wm. PatterSon «marched down street with a . Very large muskinunge strung upon a puk- uhich they carried upon their shoulders. i\s the story goes, they haul been strolling around the dry (lock that morning when some one noticed the fish come sailing down m: a block of iCe. After he had been l'tCOVCTde from his perilous position and it had been ascertained had acâ€" tilally died in trying; to swallow a large mud cat and choked in the atâ€" tempt and in fact had now been dead for some days, but beautifully pre- si'rved withal, the fish was about to be consigned to u “ntery grave be-l cause it was feared the penalty of‘ the law might be exercised. The gentlemen decided that as Mr. Fish hid come to his death through no wilful act of theirs but irrm his own act. of which the evidence was still pri-sent. thev decided to bring him down town and show him around a. hit. This was done and it was no time till a crowd gathered and var- ious snaps taken of his back, front and in different positions. Of his weight. some said 40 lbs., another a, few ounces under, another 42, anoth- o-r u few pounds under 40, and so on. The largest we have ever seen taken from these waters. We under: stand that as soon as the snaps taken have been developed, that his life. history will be written up and l duly.- recorded together with his pic- ture and his captors in one of the magazines which supplies informaâ€" tion in the acts of angling and hunt- ing. etc. In the meantime, however, the fish is stored in Mr. Thompson’s ice house with the understanding he would be properly mounted and put on exhibition as a tribute to what du- Kawartha Lakes can produce.

A very pretty Easter wedding took place Monday afternoon at three James, east ward, when her daught- o'clock at the home of Mrs. Mary er, Miss Amelia Muriel James, was united in marriages to Mr. W. H. Barnsley. “he ceremony was per- formed under a beautiful arch of evergreens and roses, the bride car- rying a large bouquet of white Car- nations. The bride, who was given away by her brother, Mr. Richard James, looked charming in a. white voile dress. She was assisted by her sister. who wore a. pretty fawn dress. and carried a bouquet of pink car- nations. The groom was assisted throughout the trying ordeal by Mr. M. Dobbin. It appears that on account of the ~“ashout “hich has taken place, caused by the spring freshets the trains are compelled to go around by Millbrook in travelling from Lindsay to Peterboro. The train ‘which was under orders from Peter- ‘boro was supposed to take all passâ€" engers from Peterboro to Millbrook and Port Hope and was to remain at Fraserville while the freight from Lindsay passed through on the sid- ing situated near the station. But on arriving there, for some unknown reason it is understood that the pas sengen pulled out, and when one half mile outside of the village, the train from the east was noticed rap- idly advancing; both engineers ap- plied the emergency brake at Once, which lessened the violence of the impact of the‘two trains, and a_vertâ€" ed a more dreadfulrcalamity. Never- theless the passenger car with its liVing freight, who were regardless: of any disaster coming upOn them, were thrown headlong through the train.

It was upon this train the passengers were in transit. The one from the west was manned by Conductor Mollroy and Engineer McConnell. Much credit is due the engineers for their prompt action in applying. the brakes to their engines and to the railroad company in transferring the injured passengers to the hospi- tal with dispatch.

As a result of the collision the pas- sengers received a severe shaking up. and many were more or less injured, but fortunately not seriously. The It appears that the passenger train, composed of one coach, which was made up here, was in charge of Conductor Ballantyne, of Lindsay, and had orders to convey the Peter- boro passengers to Millbrook, where they were to be transferred for Port Hope and also for Lindsay. It is not known just how the accident oc- curred, but it is stated here that a freight train, which reached Mill- brook from Lindsay, proceeded under instructions on to Peterboro, tender first, with the result that both trains were running with tenders ahead when the collision occurred. Just who is to blame for the accident can- not be ascertained. but it is claimed that orders were disobeyed. the Grand.’1‘runk railway line last evening turns out to be not quite so serious as at first reported, al- though a. dreadful catastrophe might have occurred had the two trains been traveling at a high rate of and was washed by the violence of the wind and water upon the ice.
