It was noOtfence to anyone particularly, but the constable •and it new-born by-law, the latter of which, to say the least, is too stringent. I There nre 104144.4tber wbich 1:CIrOire enforcing infinitely worse than that of the bicycle, but beeause the cyclists sought (without success) some modification of the restrictions, proyiding they were granted the pri- vilege of riding on the sidewalks of the back, streets during the muddy season, • from October 1st to May 1st. But the ' Council refused to take any action in I amending the by-law, which they. passed (without discussion) at the re- quest of a single man, while a, short time previously (because some of them owned cows) they were months pass- I ing a cow by-law, even when request- ed, by petitions, signed by several hundred ratepayers, and even it is not enforced ietbeslightestdegree. People I are allowed contrary to by-law, to speed their horses on Main street at a 2.30 pace, much more to the jeopardy of lives than riding it bike on the back streets. Loafers are also allowed to hang about street corners and other public places to the annoyance of pedestrians. Thus judging their action In reference to other tnattets, it is not a question of performing their duty, but a Matter of spite with the officials regarding bicycling. I am not the owner of a bicycle, but realizing that those who are, have paid large sums for wheels, and are forced to desist riding on account of the weather and bicycle by-law, witeri the season is best adapted for the exercise, I think that some arrangement could be made whereby wheeling might be allowed on the back sidewalks.

T. R. crossing near Shoebottom's corners, about four miles west of St. Marys, on the Lon- don Road, 131ansleard, another ter- riblo catastrophe is to be added, that fatal spot having been the eciene on Saturday night of the death of two well known and popular young peo- ple of the section,' About 11 o'clock it west bound freight team ran into a carriage containing Richard Franklin Hayes and his sister Mary Ann Hayes, who reside on the 10th concession of Blanshard. They were driving a spirited team of young horses, atteett- ed to it covered buggy, and as the night was soniewhitt stormy the side blincleesvere closely drawn. 'Whether they had any warning of their danger will probably never be accurately Iknown. The railway crossing at this point emerges from it deep ca on the east side, so that for soine dietance, possibly about twenty rods, it is im- possible for a person to see a train ap- proaching front the east. At Shoe - bottom's Corners, which is a little more than it quarter of a mile distant from the crossing, a glimpse of an approaclaine train caa be obtained. It is reinareable, howeyer, that trains gli.le through this cut very quietly, and owing to a strong wind blowing from the west at the time of the ac- cident, it is just possible that the un- fortunate victims had no warning of their fate until the train was upon them. As nearly as cen be ascertained the horses had cleared the track when the collision occurred. The buggy was liaelly broken. The bodies of the in- 'tes were found lying abouteix rods -els-and not far apart. The was battered also Chttich Notes.

The treasurer reported a deficit ' the year's finances. "A little less for bicycling," remarked the president, "and we could cover this deficit." The court of appeal of the Methodist church at -Toronto last week delivered a riding of interest to the denomin- ation, when It decided that it had in PO"(" to pass fa review anylegislation passed brthe Methodist general eon- ference. The ruling was delivered in connection NiltRA the appeal of repre- sentatives of The London conference. The lattter (gained that the general conference hattpassed legislation, pro- tractingthieterixt of probation for the Methodist Ministry from four to five years, and appealed against the legis- lation.
