AxoTHER Farar Snootixa.â€"On Satâ€" urday last while four Hanover lads were hunting north of Allan Park, one of them, Herbert Westfalls tripped in gome way over a log and in extricating his doubleâ€"barrelled gun from some brush got shot in the back. Messages were at once wired to Durham and Hanover and Dr‘s Mabhan and Taylor were soon in attendance but the ball having touched a vital part, there was no bope,,and he died on Sunday mornâ€" ing at Mr. Hopkins‘, on whose farm the shooting took place, He was about 17 or 18 years of age, and being a Roman Catholic, the ministrations of a priest were secured before he died. This fatality following so soon that of young Stinson emphasizes the danger in fall hunting, when young men, in the heyâ€" day of young manhood are not sufficiâ€" ently impressed with the danger of the careless use of firearms. The message, not stating who, caused a special alarm in Durham as some of our boys were out and the recent accident to Campbell Mcluotyre caused nervous apprehension. REvyErsEp THE DECISION.â€"A case of much interest to factory employers of labor was recently decided by Justice Street. A boy, between fourteen and fifteen yeatrs of age, who was employed in a factory, was told to place some boards beside one of the machines. When he did so, one man who was in charge of the machine was some distance away, standing at a window. The boy thinking that the machine was not in motion, put his hand on it to brush off some dust, and was seyerely injured by the knives, He sued his employers for damages, and the jury found that the boy had used reasonable care, considering his age, and that his employars were guilty of negligence, because they had not a guard on the knives, and because their employee, the man in charge of the machine, was not attending to his proper duty at the time of the accident. The Court of Appeal!, however, reversed this, and held that a boy of fourteen years of age was (unless proved to be otherwise ) capable of understanding the danger he ran : and that his employers had not. by their negligence, caused the accident. The action was therefore dismissed.â€"Uhesâ€" rey El)t, C Lzrctonrx®.â€"Last Friday eyening Rev, Mr. Beanet, Hamilton, gave a a lecture in the Baptist church.

The same occurred at Leamington, Kingsville and Merrickville.. The Pasâ€" sion Play will be seen at Tottenham on Nov. l1th.

Having heard that the men did not start work at the proper time the employer thought he would just drop down ‘about halfâ€"past‘ sizx one morning and see, Going up the yard he caught sight of a joiner standing emokâ€" ing with his kit not e opened.

" ‘ PusL1c LIsRARY.â€"A meeting of the Directors of this institution was held on Friday night last at the call of Viceâ€" Pres, Moran to consider current busiâ€" ness, A resolution was passed to have a course of lectures during the coming winter, by professors of Toronto Unâ€" iversity on what is called the University Extension System. _A committee has been formed to secure lecturers for at least three evenings, of which further announcements will be made. This beâ€" ing the first meeting of the Board since the death of the late President Dr. Gun, expressions of regret at the loss to the Library by his death, were made, and a committee appointed to draft a sthitâ€" able resolutioun to be engrossed in the minutes and presented to the family of the deceased The board meets again on Friday evening of this week and a full attendance is requested. It is scarcely necessary to remind old memâ€" bers of the advantages offered by this splendid library, but there have been large additions to our population lately who hayve not yet found it out, and to these we point out its merits.

Mr. Cuilerton‘s Passion Play. 27 sonals on Page 8. uTN( DURHAM, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1901. The machinery in part were small things weighing each we are told 10 or 12 tons, the gearing for the immense 70 feet long rotaries soon to follow, roof trusses for the machine shop, and other matter, The rails are being laid through the cut this week, as far at least as the Photographer Browne was on hand and took two views of the train and ifs load of men and machinery which view we hope to present to Reyiew readers before long, Just as the train stopped we noticed Mr. Neil McKechnie on the north bank of the rotary building, viewing the apâ€" proach of the Iron Horse with ité iron load, : We were glad to see him there for to his persistence and foresight must ever be attributed the inauguration of the enterprise others are so ably carâ€" rying out. 3. Lang‘s establishment, C. Wilkinâ€" son‘s " Shoue Shop ‘" and a rear view not remarkable for aesthetic architecâ€" tural features we turn north leaving the main line of the switch. _ Timeâ€"keeper Arch. Dayidson boards the train here, thus being able to boast of having ridâ€" den twice on new rails to Durham, the first time 18 years ago. Here are the grounds, formerly a second rate farm, now begining to brisâ€" tle with striking buildings, massive foundations, great excavations, &e, As the train slowly advances the throttle is opened and the engine giyes a scream of triumph and foreman Layton and dozens of workmen leave their posts and make a rush to board the cars as they same to a stand still on the last rail laid, within about one rail length of the barn, near by being the stumps of the apple trees that two months ago formed the orchard ! Conductor Lavelie stationed him. self on the rear or rather now the forâ€" ward car and signailed safety or eaution as entry was made on foreman Gibson‘s road, which stood the test to perfection. The passengers were highly inverested in the performance and as they swing past Smith‘s hills and McClocklin‘s flats their eyes ure not on the scenery. Soon a gravel road was reached and there was Robt. Scott in his racing sulky looking as if he would like to challenge the new comer to a trial of speed. â€" Now we are on the classic banks of Camp‘s creek, whose waters come from the lake supplying the maâ€" terial at the foundation of all this enâ€" terprise. Cork town hill is receding in the distance, on the right on an imposâ€" ing height came in sight the residence of Thos. Brown standing sentinel at the appreach of the amphitheatre of hills through which is the great cut now coming into view. On the left the natives are st their doors and winâ€" dows to welcome the invaders. â€" Past Engineer Blackburn then steamed down the line to the water tank, conâ€" ductor Lavelle in charge of the motley load of Direétars, cogwneels, merchants, trusses, printers, gearing, retired farmâ€" ers, bound for a trip by rail to the great works of the National Portland Cement Co. Theswiteh reached, the backing up commenced, for the cars haying to be lefé on the grounds, the engine could net go pmdfy first, | _ Thursday last it was learned that the |G. T. R, authorities had the "frog" in { position and connections made with the Inew switch leading to the Cement | Works aad that that afternoon four car loads of machinery were to be run | up to the grounds, _ Unfortunately it | was not generally known or more of |the citizens would have donned a bit of |sentiment and joined in the welcome to ‘ the Iron Horse and its freight. These boarded one or other of the four cars with the machinery and stuck to them while some shunting was beâ€" ing done. There was an amusing seramble or two by starid citizens when one of the cars was switched off as if it were going to be left and a futile race made affer the retreating train. It wasn‘t " off‘‘ yet, howeyer, and reâ€" turned in due time to pick up all. Heey. Stanhope and Director McLaren had come up the evening before and in company with Director G. McKechnie found their way to the station on arâ€" mval of afternoon train. _ With them were Messrs Wm. Calder, Chbarter Smith, C. McKinnon, R. Cochrane, A. W. H. Lauder, J. P, Hunter, Jno. Hunt, W.
