Accosting a. woman right at hand whom she suspected, she requested her to open her shopping bag and return of her purse which was stolen in Lon- don. The theft occurred while Miss past two years held their nomination a month earlier. Elderslie Township is following the same procedure. The chief cause for reverting to the old date appears to be dissatisfaction that with the earlier date a complete state- ment of the financial affairs of the municipality could not be given for the year, as well as the fact that in e- vent of a defeat sustained by reeve and council, these officers carried on for a month following the election, a con- dition not thought satisfactory nor in the best interests of the municipality.

A large crowd gathered to see the wreckage and were relieved to learn that the driver of the car, Mr. Mansell Tamberling miracul- ously escaped unhurt. It seems that Mr. ’Tambling had been driving east and not seeing the train until too late ran into the side or the locomotive. Neither car nor locomotive were trav- elling very rapidly but the momentum of the train crashed the car through‘ the cattle guards and flung it down the embankment facing in the oppo- site direction to which it had been trav- elling.
