MORRIS.
Mr. M. Spence is building a stone foun-
dation under his barn. --- •
Mr. A. Jackson left last week for Hep-
worth where he spends the slimmer.
A so'ciM for the benefit of the C. M.
Church fund, Bluevale, was given at the
residence of Mr. W. S'rnith on Wednesday
23rd inst.
Pastures are/ making -very little pro-
gress, those who have got plenty of feed
are still keeping the majority of their
stock in the barnyards.
Mr. Jos. Leech was thrown from his
buggy lastweeknear the junction en his
way to Wirigham, he received several
painful ipjuries, lout we are pleased to see
him en his feet bnce more and fully re-
covered.
Mr. E. Olver has a colt two. weeks old
that gets away with anything we have
seen this year, its size and proportions are
simply astonishing. This colt was sired
by Honest John, the imported stallion
owned by T. Agnew. of East Wawanosh.
The celebration of the birthday of Our
Queen, at Bluevale, was rather above
what might be expected of such a small
place, the sports consisted of horseracing,
jumping, putting the stone, foot races, etc.
An interesting base ball match took place
at II a.m. between the 2nd nine of Blue -
Vale and thejunior club of Morris, result-
ing in an easy victory for the fornier,
though there was some excellent' playing
done on both sides.
Last week, two of the leading men of
Wingliam wandered up a little- creek in
Morris on a fishing excursion, splendidly
quipped and wearing long rubber. boots,
after tent long hours spent in wading- tire
s tyeam for the :purfiate -of Inducing' --some
-cif
the finny tribe to go home with. them,
they were- seen by a, resident on their
journey "homeward bound," with a neat
half dozen delicate little fish -that when
dressed and cooked it.would not be con-
sidered a breach of 'table etiquette to take
at one mouthful. It seenss strange that
men swho manage the affairs of such a
busy town should trouble themselves so

Catastrophe on Brooklyn Bridge.
Rsnerc-sr RICKEN CROWD euGHTING
THEIR WAY ACRoSS-MEN WOMEN AND'
,
CHILDREN TRAMPLED TO DEATH -THE
'VICTIMS WEDGED IN SIX1 TO TE/4
DEEP, •
A terrible accident occurred on the
Brooklyn Bridge New York, on Wednes-
day afternoon. 'The bridge waS crowded
to its utmost capacity at that hour. On
the- platform at the New. 'York tower the
Jam 'became so great that many persons
fainted. A cry of:distress was raised and
a dreadful struggle began between the
..panictstticken crowds coining from the
east and the west, and a number were,, it
.is reported, crushed to death. In the end
the crowd coming from the Brooklyn side
prevailed, and rushed towards ;tire New
York anchorage, trampling, clOwn every-
thing In' its way. Men, women and
children wefe trodden under ifoot, and
falling down the steps leading ter the tow-
er platforms, were buried under the mass
of struggling humanity.
The cause ofth-e accident was this: -
•A woman, who was ascending the lower
flight of stepsTstumbled and fell on the
landing; the ctowd pressed upon her and
she shrieked. Bridge Officer ;Frederick
Richards elbosved his way to the spot and
lifted her up. The crown closed upon'
them both and they went dbwri. With a
desperate effort Officer Richards got upon
his feet once more, dragging the woman
after birth She screamed again in des-
pair and fright, and the crowd !above and
below pressed towardsthe spot to discover
the. cause of the comlnotion. The crush
immediately became fearful; those on the.
approach below the stairs were carried
-forward-in--a solid Mass.!. Many stumbled,
• and'were unable to resist the pressure from
behind, and the crowd .passed Over 'them:
From above,the crowd corning from Brook-
lyn was carried to the edge of the steps,
and then fell over and down /upon the
struggling mags below. A terrible strugs
gle for life began. Men arid women
fought with the strength of despair against
each other, and it was • Only wherea force
of militia came and at,the muzzle of their
guns, compelled the 'crewel to fall back.
A general call for all the hospital aur-
a ,
bulances was sent out and policemen were
hurried over upon the bridge. The fire-
men of the hook and ladder companies
followed to' assist. The bodies of dead
and dying lay so firmly wedged together
that to extricate them was next to im-
possible. More than half a score were
dead when extricated from the, throbbing
heap, and others were more or ,less terri-
bly injured. 'They lay six, eightior ten
deep. those in the lower tier long dead.
The clothes were torn from the bodies of
