She de- lighted her appreciative audience. Speaker eulogized the work of the In- stitute along the line of our National crisis.

Opening number was The Maple Leaf by the audience after which kir.

Monday Night's Train Derailed Brussolites among the Passengers Railway accidents are frequently reported in the daily press but com- parative small attention is paid large- ly on account of their remoteness but last Monday night the location was near enough to make it very realistic: and fortunately no one was injured barring one of the engineers. J. T. Wood, of Brussels, was a pas- senger and gave Tier Posy report- er the following particulars :-We left Palmerston over an hone late Monday night with a double header as track was icy and full of snow, After get- ting away from Listowel we ran slow- ly and passing the highway, 14 miles from town,. we felr a bump for 100 yaeds and immediately followed a sudden jar, caused by the application of the air brake. The cars swayed and stoppedemd on investigation we found both engines in the ditch, the tender of the last one being separated from the engine but still attached to baggage car, which was tilted and al- most off the road bed. Engineer Moorehead, a veteran on the road, had his side injured and the escape of the other engineer and firemen bordered on the miraculous as the engines were little more than junk after the upset. Conductor Halpeuny was in charge of train and did his part with the other members of the clew to make every- thing as comfortable as possible in first-class style. The passenger car soon got cold when the steam connec- tions were severed but a coal stove in the mail car afforded its friendly warmth as a set off to the howling storm outside. We warehoused there from about 10 p. tn. to 2 a. ni. Tuesday morning when two engines arrived from Palmerston, with the auxiliary, when our cars were pilled back on the rails and hauled back to Listowel where comfortable lodgings were pro- vided at the hotels. Among the passengers from Brus- sels locality were Mr, and Mrs. Bish- op, Mrs. W. Slemmon and Miss Mabel Haycroft beside myself, I have done a good share of travel- ling on the railway but don't want any closer call than Monday night. • Ice and snow on the crossing seem- ed to be the cause of the run off. Fortunately the train was running slow and the side of tbe track where the engines went off was well up to the level of the roadbed. Tuesday evening I met Alex. An- derson, liveryman, of Brussels, in Lis- towel. whence be had driven some travellers. He provided me with warm wraps and we landed home safe and sound that night with only one upset. It is a good thing to be guard- ed by a kindly Providence. Perth Oounty Thos, Gourley has purchased the McLellan property in the South Ward Mitchell. Price $900. St. Marys has a record that any town might well be proud of. It has not had a fire since December 1912. Alf. Price, Mitchell, mailed a letter to his brother, in France and received a reply in less than one month from day of posting. Mitchell Woollen Mills are very busy on army orders. They employ nearly 40 hands and the continuous running of their mills has been a great, benefit to the town. James Jones, Mitchell, has been elected a County Auditor for the year 1915, sad F. H. Thompson, K. 0,, re- appointed to the Mitchell High School Board by the Co. Council. At the conclusion of the annual meeting of the Couch & Schneider Co., Mitchell, a purse of gold was present- ed to their departing member, F. A, May, who has entered into business with his brother at Exeter. • At the annual meeting of Knox church, Mitchell, the Financial State- ment ehowed a most successful year and the organist Miss Bain was voted an extra 525. The Managers were in- structed to make some improvements to the church and manse. Among the notable events of the past week was the passing away after a wasting illness of Mrs. John Broderick at the ripe age of 74 years. It was notable because of the long residence of the deceased in Mitchell, because of her prominence as a citi- zen and because of the large family she'brought up, who filled so large a place tn the social life of the com- munity. Mis. Broderick was born in County Clare, Ireland, in 1841, and came to America early in life. In 1860 she was married to John Broder- ick in St. LOtlis, Missouri, and came to Mitchell 5 years afterwards and continued a resident of that town up to her death, The marriage of Joseph Petrie and Miss Maude 13arton took place in the Methodist church, Donegal, on Wed- nesday of last week, Rev.
