Atter the official figures had latex tl lasatie lalbLe, it was eontended by oonir ot the opponents of prohibition that the margin of difference between the majorley and nimority was so slight tuat it praaetitatily eoustituted a tie, and there was, therefore, no ocea- e on for. the Government to inemounee either one way t)r the other.

Taylor, a farmer living on concession 8, West- minster, and four-llliles-eatst of, 'Glare-; worth, was killed instantly at the Glauworth station crossing by an M.C. R. train about 10.15 yesterday. Taylor was occupied in thought apparently and deliberately drove in front of the oncoming train. The fireman drew Engineer Jones attention to the man and remarked that he did not ap- pear to notice .the approaching ex- press. The bell was ringing at the time, and the whistle was v,goronsly totted. But all in vain. Taylor al- lowed his horses to jog onto the track just in time to receive injuries that caused his own death and that of both horses. One of the horses was cut in two. Taylor's body was considerably mangled. The scene presented by the wreck was a horrible one. Taylor was one of the best known residents of the township, was 85 years of age, and leaves a wife and one child—the latter a boy of seven years of age. polled, costs of day to be pal lay 1)laintAl' (latrow', Q.

Green- wood, of Blenheim, who had been sit- ting up with his sick brother, set out for home about two o'clock in the morning. The night was very dark, and, being unable to see his way, he decided to return for a lantern. He had just stepped inside the gate when he was commanded to throw up his hands. Mr. Greenwood . replied by making a dash for :the house. The highwayman fired once, but missed, and the business man reached his brothers house unharmed. Mr. Green- wood had been too late for the bank in the afternoon, and had considerable ,money on his person. It is believed that the highwayman is one of those who robbed Powell's bank a couple of weeks ego. Blenheim is still without a night -watch. Volcanic Eruptions.

We read that woman was a gift, Given as ahelpmate unto man, But as a nurse T think she comes The nearest her Creator's plan: In their own homes our better halves With noble qualities unseen, But here ambitions height she gains And quietly r ons the whole machine. How oft the drooping heart she cheers, She answers every beck and call, Her noble nature brightest shines, Within the city hospital; And thus we by degrees may learn, Our own. complaints and those of others, Are sent to us simply for to prove Mankind at all times should be broth- ers. All hail the doctor and his art, His soothing•syrups,pills and blisters. But loving kindness is the milk That's kept in stock by all our sisters; Philanthropists may scatter wide The contencsoftheirweil-filledpUrses Be mine the part to speak a word, A word in favor of the nurses. You're champion for the ladies. fair, And that the nurses treat you kind, Aye, kinder than they did the Mayor. You think the nurses, blessing now, And wonder who could call them curses, But have you heard about the row, His Worship had with certain nurses. You have for them the greatest praise, In love, in fact I do declare; Let you hear what Mayor Wilson says And then takewarning by the Mayor. I hope your time is not mispent, While working in that latitude, As kindness often is repaid, With basest of ingratitude. Those nurses yet may win renown, They are so kind in every way; I'm glad to hear it Mr. Brown, Mayor Wilson hasu't that to say. —1'ec usiselt A pleasant smile, a winning wile, A friendly word well worth presery She showers her favors all around Alike on good and undeserving; And while we scan each others woes We learn more freely to forgive, And one step farther up we go To live, to learn, to learn to live.
