A flaw iii the steel, either in a rail or in an axle, the oversight, perhaps, of a careless workman, is supposed to. he the cause 0! all this misery. A terrible tragedy occurred on the C. P. R. on Friday last at Span- ish River. twenty-seven miles west of Sudbury. The train was going from Montreal to Minneapolis, and a broken rail or broken axle is supposed to have caused the des- truction. which resulted in an un-‘ verified report of forty dead: a n d s e y e rtal injured. .The" rain left the track as it approached , the bridge, one car struck the‘ bridge and split in two, the next: fell into the river and was almost; submerged, many passengers being ’ drowned. The dining car was! partially submerged, and a second ‘ class car which escaped going into E the river was destroyed by fire.

In the matter of general news we have no fault to find with the Globe. but We don’t see Why Mr. Delamere didn’t tell exactly the number he saw. If he had a poor timid witness in the box, the legal gentleman would seek for more accurate information. and the witness who would fail to be positive as to whether he saw “two” or “three” would be expos- ed to severe ridicule by many of the legal fraternity. The fact is Mr. Delamere saw two or three robins. and felt satisfied they were robins. He is evidently not certain i whether there Were two or three, nor yet would he care to swear. we presume, that he didn’t see four. Lawyers expect too much of witnesses sometimes, and the great unwashed public are too ready to charge a witness With lying because he happens to get nervous enough to get mixed up by an unscrupulous lawyer, who would willingly make a witness commit perjury for the sake of “gaining his case. rs ties, and the eight or nine outside 9. buyers in attendance. it must cer- vy tainly be pronounced a success.

The prices ranged from $75 to $200, which shows the widely vary- ing character of the animals dis- posed of. Yet the poorer class of horses are not wanted‘ and these fairs will have an educative influ- ence by which farmers will know the class of horses for which a ready market will be found. Mr. Black is the originator of the horse fair mm ement in this town, and it must be admitted on all sides that he deserves much credit for his enterprise. Though reports come in of only thirty-four horses horses having changed hands on‘ the day of the fair, the work of buying in the neighborhood has‘ been continued and the sales will no“ haxe reached many moxe.
