A passenger on one of the trains attempted to make the trip from the train to the liquor store and return before the train left again. He actually made the trip and secured two bottles of gin to reward him for his speed. However, just as he was stepping on the platform of the rear car one of the ‘bottles slipped onto the cement of the station platform, and all that anybody got from that bottle was a smell of sweet gin. Acâ€" cidents will happen, of course, and no blame attaches to anyone in this case, but there are people who think that the T. N. O. should provide soft rubber coverings for all station platforms to guard against the reâ€" currence of any such tragedies as the one quoted. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY AT COBALT STATION LAST WEEK.

Responsibility of a stockbroker toâ€" ward his client so far as an individual transaction is concerned ceases the moment a stock is purchased, Mr. Justice Boyer decided in the Superior Court in condemning W. A. Dansereau to pay Arthur Bruneau, Montreal broker $37,718.54. Bruneau took action for that amount for loan and interest in conâ€" nection with stock transactions carâ€" ried out for the defendant. Danserâ€" eau pleaded that the broker should have sold the stocks purchased when the buyer‘s margin was exhausted. He claimed further that he believed this had been done because the plaintiff did not send him any bills or notificaâ€" tion that he owed the broker money. ‘Mr. Justice Boyer said : ‘*Once the purchase is completed by the broker, he ceases to be the agent and becomes a security icreditor and is under no obligation to protect the buver by obligation to protect the buyer by selling the shares to avoid a loss. The defendant could have protected himâ€" self by giving this order but he did not.

Withâ€" in the past week at least two parties of motorists arrived in North Bay with tales of encounters. _ One of the parties, en route from Ville Marie to Montreal, exhibited a badly damaged six cylinder car, the left side of which was almost completely wrecked and the headlights, windshield and radiâ€" ator erumpled. They stated that the damage was the result of being chargâ€" ed by a moose several miles north of North Bay. On the following day, according to local garage men, anâ€" other pair of motorists arrived in the city with a story of having been haltâ€" ed by a whole family of moose who took up positions on the road in front of the automobile and ‘by ominous pawings challenged the car to proceed, The incident occurred at night and not seeking battle the motorists drew up sharply and shut off their lights for several minutes.

Mrs. Whitney‘s mother had been in poor health and the daughter was anxious to see her, but when she arrived in the English city on a recent Saturday she was shocked to learn that her parents had been buried on the previous Wednesday. Other relatives had not known of Mrs. Witney‘s intentions, or the funeral would have been delayed. Her father, it was learned, had died suddenly and her mother survived only a few hours.
