He was on his way to Hutton Hill school picnic and when driving over the crossing was horrified to see an engine and passenger coach rapid- ly bearing down upon him. Mr. Hop- kins says he is positive the whistle was not sounded for the crossing until the engineer observed him on the track ahead. How he escaped he does not know, but he would not take another chance of its kind for a con- siderable sum. As residents of this locality know. the Hutton Hill cross- ing is exceptionally dangerous, as is the crossing at Garafraxa street in this town, and with the several narrow escapes that people have had from being run down, it is up to the railway company to be more careful and pro- vide protection for the travelling pub- ing is exceptionally the crossing at Ga this town, and with ascapes that people the bank. but could see. no trace of him. \Vhen he did not turn up the next morning, the foreman was not- itied and on search being made the body was found in about twenty feet of w-ater not far from where his cloth- ing was disco hex-ed to make. objection to the deal the people of this constituency are getting in the matter of railroad crossings, and think it would be well to act now, before‘loss of life occnrrs. ’ The train which came so nearly putting Mr. Hopkins under the sod was the official car that passed through earlier in the .

The remains of the late Mrs. Male, whose death we referred to last week, were interred in Durham Cemetery on Thursday afternoon last. She died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Mcâ€" NELsoxâ€"In Glenelg. on Saturday, June 19th, 1908, to Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Nelson, a son. Tavish, of (Jedarville, where she had been for about three weeks prior to her death. Her maiden name was Sarah Putherbough. In January 1868 she married the late Benjamin Male, only one daughter resulting from the union. The deceased was a strong healthy w mnan until after the de-‘th of her husband m June 1905, when she began to fail. She was a member of the Baptist church here for more than a quarter of a century. Before re- moving the remains from her daugh- ter’s home a service was held by Rev. Mr. Riddeford, Baptist minister of Mt. Forest, and the last burial rites were conducted here by her own pastor, MARIONâ€"EVERITTâ€"jln Durham, on “'ednesday, June 24th, 1908, at the residence of the bride’s parents, Miss Edith Everitt, to Mr, P.

On Friday afternoon last. at Han- over. before a fair sized crowd. the Owen Sound lacrosse team went down to defeat at the hands of the Hanover twelve, to the tune of 10â€"9. Though the game. to one not in- terested in either team, was not of the class the Durham spectators expected to see. it had its brilliant features. and occasimally a flash of combination and good team work would crop in and remind a spectator of the days gone by when lacrosse was the one great game of this part of the province. Altogether, the Sounders had the best combination. and though they lost the game it was due to the loose work on the part of their defense at critical stages of the game. In the first quarter it looked all Hanover, the score standing when time was called, 4â€"1. The Owen Sound aggregation pulled together somewhat after this and for the next two sessions helped themselves to a series of seven goals to the Dutch- mens’ two. When the teams lined up for the final quarter, the score stood 8â€"6 with Owen Sound on top and playing strong. At this juncture, the OWen Sound defense went to pieces, playing much the same game as in the first quarter, and, failing to properly cover their checks, the home team landed three into the nets to their one, and at full time the score was a. tie, 9â€"9. Of the Owen Sound aggregation, Hare and Nevins were the chief actors, and easily have the Indian Sign on anything on the line-up of Friday. In the extra time, the Hanover bunch scored the winning goal in three minutes and it was all over. For Hanover, Herman Wendorf played the best game on the field, and is easily the fastest and headest man the Hanover aggregation can boast of, while Henning the goal keeper, is cer- tainly astar in his position between the flags. Sam Wendorf, too. played a good game, such as it was, though his tactics at different stages of the game were not conducive to good, clean lacrosse.

A Halibut-ton despatch says :-â€"-For some time J. E. Holmes, of Haliburton. has been experimenting with explosives and has finally formu- lated one that should make his name. famous to the world, the new explosive being not only very powerful, but absolutely safe for transportation. be- sides being quite inexpensive. Mr. Holmes and his friends have every; confidence in the discovery and do not hesitate to place a quantity of the powderâ€"for a powder it isâ€"upon a rock, floor, or on the ground and set fire to it with a match, where it will slowly burn. They will also pound it with a maul or eat it and say it is' perfectly harmless until excluded from : the air and reached by an electric; spark or fire from a fuse. The climate : has no effect upon it, neither has the! lapse of time, and it is evidently des- l tined to become the best known and most used explosive for blasting pur- poses, if not for heavy firing guns,! throughout the world. A charge of it ' was placed in a hole about three feet2 deep in a rock, and after the fuse was ' in place the hole was filled with earth l only packed in by hand to exclude the l air, and the power displayed was l greater than either dynamite or pow-i der. Mr. Wigmore, an expert who has had wide experience with explo-t sives in South Africa and elsewhere, says "It is a world beater.” A company § 1 I l I is formed to promote the enterprise, consisting of the discoverer, and Robt.
