The completion of these two gape in Canada will finish the double tracking of the line all the way from Montreal to Niagara Falls through Tor- onto and Hamilton. When tbe work now contemplated tbie season West of the river is oompleted, it will leave only 70 of the 335 miles between Niagara Falls and Chicago to be done next year.

They were charged with assaulting James Johnston, a bellboy of the Hotel Quints. Late at night some one entered the room of Mies Ela walker, a member of the oompaoy, but left when she ordered him oat. From the deeoription given by Mies Walker, Fraser and Stnrrook suspected Johnston. A complaint wee made to the management of the hotel, but the two men decided to settle the matter in their own way. About 12 o'clock the next night, after the oonoert, they rang the bell, and Johnston answered the summons, When he entered the room he found the furniture piled on the bed. The door was looked by one of the men, and they atonoe proceeded to punish Johnston. Before he snoeeded in making bie eooape he was badly cut and bruised about the face, and suffered severely. Fraser and Starrook were throated in Warkwork, where they went with their oompany. Before the Magistrate they admitted the assault, but pleaded as justification their belief that Jobneton was the one who en- tered Miea Walker's room. Johnston mote that he was not the man' and there was no evidence whatever to enpport the suspicion, The two men were ordered to pay $20 compensation to the injured young man, were fined $20, and ordered to pay $22 coats, making $62.
