Demonstration at Peterboro on Monds . Those who went by tram certainly had their money's worth in riding. The round trip is 175 miles, and our travellers did not reach home until two o'clock next morning. Band Instruments Destroyed Peterboro Salvation Army Band was to have assisted in the Orange Demonstration on Mon- day, but on Thursday night some person or porsons destroyed their band instruments. It was but natural to think that some Ro- man Cathclic was the : guilty party; but this is emphatically denied both by the Salvation Army Adjutant, and the Chief of Police at Peterboro.' These persons claim that there is the heartiest good will between the Salvation Army and the Roman ing? i the | offering of flowers. When asked | farming?

I know that the very best harmony exists be- tween Rev. Father Phelan and adjutant Bunton, and 'Mrs. Bun- ton, who is my Police Matron. Furthermore, nothing has been suggested to me or any of my men conducting the investiga- tion, or from any Source what-|. ever, that would lead me to believe that the damage had been done by any person of the Roman Catholic faith." This statement by Chief Thompson appeared in Tuesday's Globe. Sad Accident near Port Hope A young married woman had the misfortune to lose both her feet at at station at" Garden Hill between Port Hope and Mill- brook. The accident occurred on the return trip. about: eleven, o'clock at nighty It seems that the young woman whose name is Hallam, was in a different car to that in which her husband was riding, and when the train stopoed, she did not get off be- fore the train started to move. Her husband had alighted safely with their child, and he shouted to his wife to "Come on." = A. brakeman warned the woman not to jump, that he would stop the train; but she was excited and jumped. Instead of jumping clear, she held on to the railing and as a result her feet were drawn under the train. One foot was cut completely off, and the other was so badly mangled that it will likely have to be am- putated. ns Such assistance as was possi- ble was given to the unfortunate woman, and she was taken on to Port Hope, where she was taken to the hospital. The Procession Peterboro was crowded to its utmost, for in addition to the Orange Demonstration, there was a circus at the Fair gronnds. The procession was a monster, but proceedings we e spoiled somewhat by a sharp downpour of rain. It is possible that the Orange Demonstration may be held in Port Perry next year. Garden Party at Sonya A Garden Party is to' be held under the auspices of the Sonya Ladies' Aid of St. Andrews Church, on the evening of Wed- nesday, July 28th, at the home of Mr. James Munro.
