ACCIDENT:—A rather unfortunate
accident happened to Mr. R. Berry,
farmer, 4th con. of Blaushard, Friday
evening. It appears that Mr. Berry
was unloading oats from an elevated
position some six or seven feet from
the barn floor when the pulley broke,
causing the iron clasp to fall down-
wards. -It struck Mr. Berry on the
head anprecipitated him to the floor
beneath. He received an ugly scalp
wound which will be very painful for
a while. Dr. Brown was called and
dressed the wound, which needed sev-
eral stitches.
LAcRossE.—The finest lacrosse game
of the season was played here Friday
afternoon, the teams being the Beavers

-high as the boys in red piled up game

Inane team was absoletely perfect.

some effective work. The first two
goals were scored by St. Marys after a
considerable amount of playing. Then
Seaforth notched one, the only one in
the first half. • When time was called,
after 45 minutes hard playing the score
stood I to 1 in favor of the home team.
When the referee called the men on

LOST HIS LIFE IN TRYING TO
SAVE ANOTHER'S
Toronto, August 27.—Samuel Stein,
aged 23, living at; 114 Centre avenue,
sacrificed his life yesterday afternoon
in a splendid attempt to rescue, a
drowning young lady, who was
brought ashore little the worse of her
adventure by another bystander. Miss
Mary Miller amd a party of yorritre
ladies summering at Fisherman's Isl-
and, tried to swim across a channel
leading into Ashman's marsh, where
the current is strong. 3Iiss Milier
cried out for help and sank. Stein,
who was fishing on the shore, pulled
off his boots and jumped in without
removing any of his clothes. He made
for Miss Miller, but just before he
reached her, Terrance Holland, an-
other fisherman,. threw his line from
a boat, and the hook caught in the
drowning girls hair. By this means
she WaS dragged within reach by Hol-
land and brought 'ashore unconscious.
Stein took cramps while Holland 117aS
