The deceased came of a very well known family. his father being Mr. 5Robert Young. of OSpringe. He owned a farm in School Section No. ,Guelph Township, and was well known indeed throughout the county. 'He was 36 years of age and married, .leaving his wife. a daughter of the ‘late George Fyfe, and one son of 9 3 years to survive him. Moshorough Township. The machin- ery was being drawn up an incline into the barn. When just at. the threshold the engine suddenly stem-ted to move back on the thresher. which was just behind. Mr. Young was standing in such a position that the Steering rod on the engine was literally driven right. through him. It out through the abdomen and forced its way through the body. I'naware of the terrible extent of the injuries, his friends drove him two miles and a half to his own home. Here medical assistance was summoned and the reai nature of the injury discovered. The unfortunate man was brought to the General Hospital this morning and there operated upon. NOthing could save his life, however, and he passed away betweenl and 2 o’clock this afternoon.

'Twmaq Dunbar. an Old man of tin r: wrict, was the vimim and he wa~ baled as tba result of being run down by a freight, train. The old man was very deaf and ap- parently did not bear the train ap preaching. He was struck full on the crossing Bis horse was killed,_the wagon smashed and the unfortunate driver was so mangled that only small portions of his remains could be discovered. The crossing at which the accident occurred is a particula:ly dangerous one. and the approaches cannot be seen on one side on account of a high board fence shutting 08 the view. It is thought that the old man did not see or hear the train and was cut to pieces before he could have realiz- ed what happened. An inquest will he held. The concrete work on the Camp' Creek brige was finished lsat week.’ So far :3 can 'be seen it losks like a first-00a“ job. 1 TERRIBLY MANGLED FREIGHT TRAIN. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE BY l Eels are peculiar even among nsnes. A strange and mysterious race. the dimculty of killing them is not the least of their peculiarities. Very many of us have been annoyed by the ordi- nary eel that has seized our worm and then tangled up our line in its slim; coils. You may cut on‘ the head of an eelâ€"in the manner recommended by the S. P. C. A.-â€"and leave its body full of squirms and wriggles. for the eel is a hateful and uncanny creature. I have been told that the true method is first to cut 011’ the eel's tail and that after this the severance of the head ‘ brings all life and movement to an end. As to this I cannot say. for I only heard this recently and have not since had to deal with a sinuous eel. A correspondent has cited an instance of a conger left apparently dead for twenty-four hours on the beach. which ; then hit three fingers from the hand of ' a small boy who came to handle it. I can well believe this. i shall not easily forget the eerie shock which r had on a certain occasion in Wales. I had caught a large eel on a night line set for pike. We had severed his head and left him for some hours on the bank. leaving a good hook in his gullet. In the evening he was presented to a small boy. who bore him OH in triumph as a supper dish. Half an hour later the boy’s mother appeared, with some concern and indignation. to relate that the head had bitten the boy severely when he tried to remove the excellent hook. And this was no conger! The occurrence seemed to me like the hor- ror in one of Kipling‘s most weird sto- ries of uncanny horror. Whether these posthumous wounds by eels betoken the remnants of life in their severed portions or a mere mechanical flicker of the nervous system only the biolo- gist could say. And perhaps he would be only making a guessâ€"St. James’ , Gazette. “What will happen to me 11' I don’t?" said he. A hurried consultation took place. Counsel suggested that it was the so- iicitor’s duty to submit to the experi- ment. The solicitor refused. The bro- ker himself was then asked if he would risk it. “You’ll lose the case." replied both his legal advisers. “Then," said he hurriedly. “lose the case, lose the case!” And so he did. There Was a Difference. When Dr. Randall Davidson. arch. bishop ,of Canterlmry, was a curate. one day at Dartford he took a Sunday school class in a neighboring parish. The subject was King Solomon, and after the lesson he proceeded to cate- chise the children; “Tell me. boys." he said. "what was the difference between Solomon and other men?" No answer. “Come. come!” said the future archbishop. “Was there any difference. for in- stance. between King Solomon and my- self?” “Look here, guv’nor. you say them figs are good to eat. and I say they ain’t. That’s all there Is between us. ain’t It? Now, s’eip me, if you'll out two of them figs and you ain't sick immediately afterward I’ll lose my case)’ The judge at one-c saw the propriety of this suggestion and asked the law- yer what he proposed to do. "No, no! The ofier is made to you." said the judge. A tiny hand went up and a tiny voice replied. “Please, sir, Solomon was wise!"â€"Londou M. A. P. Queer Plants. , The searcher for curiosities among plants finds much to interest him in Kew gardens. There are primroses which blister the hand if stroked, leaves divided into two sections which snap together and imprison any insect which flights upon them. plants which live absolutely on air, without any root in the ground; walking plants. sleeping plants and plants which grow whiskers. And all these marvels can be seen by It wm Bat. Long Am; It Has The plaintiff. a caster. who conducted his own case. was skillfully cross ex- aminvd. The trial was obviously going against him. and once or twice he re- tortod so hotly that the judge threat- ened to commit him for contempt. At length the costar grew desperate and. turning to the opposing counsel. hoarse and perspiring, he said: - Peculiar Qualifications. “In choosing his men." said the Sab- bath school superintendent. “Gideon did not select those who laid aside their arms and threw themselves down to drink.

An English solicitor was defending a fruit broker in an action brought in a London court for the recovery of $100. the price paid for a consignment of figs which the plaintiff declared to he unlit for human food. The defense alleged that. although moderately dis- colored by salt water, as the plaintiif knew when he bought them. the figs were perfectly wholesome.

Irwin got in Montreal. was robbed during the night, poured out his story to the officials at the Windsor Street Station the next day, and was to have returned for a ticket back to Owen Sound if his wife advanced the money to the station agent at Owen Sound. He then disappeared. and his disap pearanoe was lookedon as so serious that the matter was placed in the hands of the police. who located a man named George Irvin (not Irwin) in the Montreal jail. where he had been sent for being found as a star- away on the SS. ‘Pretorian.’ As the Owen Sound Irwin was to have sailed on the ‘Pretorian,’ and had been robbed of his ocean ticket, it was immediately“ thought that he had been trying to steal his passage. As a matter of fact it was found that the Irvin in jail was a storaway from England on the ‘Pretorian’ when in- ward bound. Then it wes discovered thet the reel Irwin had gone to the Allen line peOple, hed told them his plight, end had been given nnother ticket by them.
