Motor car has now to pay a license to

public we here recite the wording of
the license issued to Mr. Tisdall.cen-
cerning his motor. It.reade as follows;
"J. P 'Estill% Clinton, is hereby licene
sed to use his motor vehicle during the
year 1904 upon•the highways in the

the provisions of 3 Edward VII, Cap.
27, arid the said motor vehicle is reg.'s-
tered in the Department of the pea.

retary." It is to be hoped that the
time is not far .distant when horses

the automobile is come to stay. -Those
'driving horse.e should use every pr -e

whatbecame apparent on viewing
the wreck, which occurred 345 p.
about asquarter of a mile south of the
tank. The local way freight with
some 25 cars going north, left the
station at 3 15, and was to get water
and make Londeshoro before theater

To save time, it is said after the train

and the train was Moving, the engine
left the cars a folleiwing and ran ahead
to get water, which, it accomplished,
an was in the act of backing upto

engine out of business by jarring the

but most assuredly had a close call
