Stratford Herald: The new fast train. to and from Toronto was inaugurated Monday morning and proved its popul- arity by taking on over one hundred passengers at the local station, adding to the large number who were on from Goderich line towns. The train itself made a fine appearance, the cars hav- ing just come out of 'the London car shops where they had been repainted and refitted with new equipment. Two day coaches; gine cafe coach and one official cur made up the• train, which was hauled by a latest type locomotive and manned by a first class crew, In the official car were Mr. J. C. Garden, Superintendent of Motive Power, returning to Montreal; Mr. W. J, Piggott, divisional superintendent, who secured the train for his divis= ion; Road Foreman East and some other officials of the G. T. R. The passengers included many.' local busi- ness amen bent on trying out first hand the advantages of the new ser- vice: , in charge 'of Conductor J. S. Allen and Engineer R, Snider, with "Max" Wagner as fireman, the train node a fast run front Goderich this morn- ing; reaching Stratford on the dot of 7.45. While the engine crew are front Stratford, the trainmen are men sta- tioned in Goderich—J. D. Stewart as baggage then and 1-l. A. McLean as brakeman. The relief crew ' consists of 'Conductor J, H. Kelleher, Baggage - man A. 'Cox and J. 0, Stewart, Jr., as brakeman. The train got away promptly at 7.45 and reached Toronto ' at '10,15, The traveling time of the train is from 45 to 50 miles an hour,, and further time is gained by the small number of stops made—Kitchener, Guelph, Georgetown, Bramnptott and West To- ronto being the only stops.

Murdock Burned—Horses Re- scued. Hensall, May 3.—Fire, which is be- lieved to have originated in the black- smith shop of George Brock, between 10,30 and 11 o'clock to -night, com- pletely destroyed that building, along with the livery stable of Thompson Murdock, and a woodshop operated by Colin Hudson. 'All three buildings were of frame construction, adjoined each other, and were owned by Mr, Murdock. His loss, which will be ex- tensive, is partly covered by insurance, The fire/was brought under control at midnight, The blaze was the most spectacular seen here in some time. In addition to the frame structures, quantities of hay and straw lent impetus to the flames, which mounted to a great height, attracting hundreds of people from Seaforth, Zurich and Exeter, Soon after the' fire was discovered the hand brigade was on the scene and pumped streams 'of water into the buildings. It was only through per- sistent efforts that the home of Mr. Murdock, close to the livery stable, was saved. Fifteen or 16 horses in the barns were rescued, but several carr- iages and equipment were destroyed. ships close -by will have a team that should be at the top of the District when the season ends.
