DEATH ON Tun RAIL.—One result of
the recent heavy falls of snow was to.
lead to the instantaneous and horrible
death of Brakeman Alex. Livingstone,
of Wingham, of the G.T,R., Saturday
night, about 9.30 o'clock. Livingstone
was cone of the London, Huron &Bruce
way freight crew, and root his death
while on ditty in the railway yards at
Hensall. The accident occurred
through Livingstone mistaking, in the
insufficient light, a cattle -guard pack-
ed with snow as part of the solid road-
bed. He was assisting in the shunting
of cars, and the work was being hur-
ried, as the crew were a day late be-
cause of the heavy snowstorms. A car
had to be "kicked” into' the .Hensall
sliding, in the railway man's parlance,
and Livingstone wee in the act of
drawing a coupling'pin from between
two cars while he whole train was be-
ing slowly shunted. He had:' to move
along While pulling -the pin, when he
suddnly Bank' in the dee snow in the
cattle -guard.! In' an instant the fatal
car foliowin done its work.' The
body= was �yr '�nangled. Grief-
stricken ecuurs es'Aaif the dead man
tenderly gathered=ti the remains, and
theywere carried into the caboose,
and thence taken' to Wingham, and to
the home of the young man's. father.
Deceased was unmarried, and about 28
years of age. He lived with hie' mo -
Cher and father, who not longsince
had moved to Wingham on his ac-
count. His connection with the G. Tr
R. dates back a number of years, and
promotion would shortly have come
his way. He was exceedingly popular
among his comrades, and quite a num-
ber of railroaders from London at-
tended the funeral.

NOTES.—Mrs Ross, of Winnipeg, vis
ited relatives here last week. Mrs Joe.

FooTSALL.—An exciting game of
football and rugby combined was play-
ed here on Friday last between the
Bayfield boys and Varna's "Little
Fry_" The grime was carried on very
spirited throughout by both parties,
though there was much dissatisfac-
tion, owing partly to the condition of
grounds, which rendered fouls una-
voidable and numerous, also abusive
language and 'a quari'el'lgome spirit,
discreditable to any Match anddie-
gustingto visitors, while fairness was
out of the question entirely. The first;
half-time neither side scored a ggoat
vghile the portion of the second' hall,
.time the Little Fry evidently had the
best of the game though Bayfield ob-
tained one goal by foul play. A short
time elaiised when the f•efer'ee called
time eight minutes too soon, and this
terminated the game. A return match
is expected on Saturday next in Bay-
field.
