"Well t" 'fNow she baa found that I hue an gingham”; span.” FROM As the result of an explosion that occurred in Mount Vernon Colliery, b'hettlestxm, two miners, Duncan McIntyre and John Brown, were se- verely injured. Owing to the slacknes‘s of trade many men are being paid off or sus~ pended at Glasgow docks, and crowds of men can be seen waiting in vain for a chance to get work. Tho death has occurred of Mr. Henry Arthur Kellen, a. prominent offieia1 of the North British Railway Company at Glasgow. He had been employed with the company for more than fifty years. _ The Sanquhar and Kirkoonnel Collieries have advanced the Kirk- ounnel Bowling Club the tic-ce-ssary amount to clean off the debt on their new green and as much as will build an up-bodate pavilion. The death has occurred at, his residence in Upper Coltbridge Ter- race, Muersyfield, Edinburgh, of Mr. Francis Braid, formerly post- master of Glasgow, in his seventy- sixth year. Damage to the extent of about $600,000 was done by a fire in the paper works of Messrs. Pirie at Stoneywood, near Aberdeen, and between 400 and 600 employes have been rendered idle.

Electric Lighting Committee that a. piece of gmwnd be acquired at Westbsnk, Portobello, for the erection of a. new electric light station to cost $75,000. 7 A boy named John Smith, 16 years of age, of Aberdeen, met with a terrible death when he was blown over the cliffs at Burnbamk Shore, near Cove Bay, a few miles outside Aberdeen, and fell a distance of over 120 feet.
