It kept the centre of the road for about four or five hundred yards. The deer had about 100 yards for a start and when it bolt- ed in a westerly direction it had a lead of less than 30 feet. The car was then going slightly over 50 miles per hour. The deer ran into the wire fence and got entangled, and was there long en- ough to get the car stopped and the owner to go to the deer’s assistance, but got clear when Mr. Tate was with- in a few feet of it and went mos the fields in a westerly direction, apparently none the worse of its experience .â€"The Grand Valley Star and Vidette. water everywhere. couldn’t find a drop How Fast Can 3 Deer Run?

FARADAY’S DAIRY No other experiment in physical science has been more fruitful in the profit of mankind than that of Michael Faraday, whose work was responsible for the production of the dynamo. The centennial of his birthday will be cele- brated by a large gathering, representâ€" ing the great electrical societies of the world. Faraday kept a careful dairy in his own hand of all his experimental work. For sixty years this dairy has been the most treasured possesion of the Royal institution, which has re- solved to publish it in full.

He probably did not see the train at all and drove head-on into the side of the locomotive, smashing in the radiator and pushing back the engine in the truck. Only one side window was bro- ken, and the driver had an injured knee, probably from coming in contact with the dash. After the accident, one truck was in the ditch on each side or the road.â€" The first of the trucks belonged to R. M. and it was utmost on the track before the driver noticed the locomo- tive. Seeing that it was useless to try to stop. he speeded up, and his truck almost cleared the track. The front part 01’ the boiler on the engine struck the overhanging rack abone 18 inches from the back, and turned the truck over on its side. The stock rack hit a telephone pole and was smashed slight- ly, but neither the driver nor truck was badly injured and the truck was able to proceed under its own power when turned over on its wheels again. The second driver was not so fortun- ate. His truck belonged to the Tees- water Lightning Rod 00. and he was having difficulty seeing through an The C. P. R. train consisted only of a locomotive, tender and one car, and was a special sent on the Elora branch to repair the telegraph lines. It was moving very slowly at this time, and to this fact, at least one of the drivers probably owes his life. A curious double accident occurred at the C. P. R. crossing on St. David street on Monday afternoon about four o’clock, providing the first smash-up of the year in town. Two trucks were proceeding south on the highway, com- ing from Teeswater, when the first was struck by a special C. P. R. loco- motive coming from the east. The second truck ran into the side of the locomotive hitting it head on. One driver escaped injury and the other had only a slight injury to his knee. oi’ Walkerton when they hit that burg.
