A ghastly railway fatality occurred on the Grand ‘Trubk near Baden on Thursday night whereby Wilfrid Fisher, a young man 18 years of age, of Lakeâ€" field, Ont., lost his life. ‘The cireumâ€" stances of the accident are veiled in mystery to a certain extent. It is thougbt that young Fisher, in company with another young man juwped a freight at Berlin on Thursday afterâ€" noon. _ When found the legs of the unâ€" fortunate man were mangled from the knees down. _A New Hamburg doctor was called and Fisheg was brought to the Berlin-“’alerla@flospital on the 3.23 train this morning. Drs. Bowlby and Minchio were summored and found that both legs would have to be amputated. ‘The patient, though be never recovered consciousucss after reaching Berlin, must have been conâ€" scious at some time previous for a paper was found in his pocket bearing: his name and expressing a wish to be‘ buried at Lakefield, his home. He was probably injured internally. The doctors did not operate as the patient rapidly sank and died at 8.30. There will be no inquest. BTORY OF THE DECEASRD. Mr. Fisher, Sr., arrived from Lakeâ€" fieid on the 10.59 train. He says his son Wilfrid was a member of the 57th Regiment and bad been working near ‘ Bobcaygeon. From there he went with the Regiment to camp at Kingston. He took part in a parade in Lindsay on July 2nd and afterwards it is supâ€" posed started out to make his way by freight trains to Michigan. A younger brother named Percy is also missing. Percy worked in Shantz‘s button factory for about six months. He left about two weeks ago for Lakefield, from where le went to Bobeaygeon in search of his brother. Since then, he has not been heard of. Coroner Bowlby furâ€" nished a certificate this afternoon and Mr. Fisher, with the body of hisâ€"son in charge, left on the 5.23 train for Lakeâ€" field. One of the chicfest topics of discusâ€" sion among thinking citizens is the rapid development of Imperialism, both Sxar Snots.â€"The sanction of fashionable society may become a powerful instrument for good to huâ€" wanity at large, or on the contrary, may be responsible for many of the evils that prevail in all grades of society. Our noble Queen sets an example of kindness to animals that ought to be followed by more of her loyal subjects. In going through the Queen‘s stables at Windsor Castle last summer, one of a party of ladies remarked with pleasure that none of the many fine horses there were docked. "No," said one of the grooms, "Her Majesty will never allow a horse to be docked, and one of her grooms was discharged for having docked the tail of a newly purchased saddle horse." It is also a fact worthy of notice that the determined work of the Audobon Societies has resulted in a very great diminution of birds as a feature of millinery, so much so that the Millinâ€" ery Trade Review declares the demand to be insufficient to warrant them in placing them on the market. btraiford Herald in referting to bis appolutmeut eays:â€"AMr. Eby is well known in this city and in Sebringâ€" ville, his father, Dr. Eby, being once a resideut of the latter place. _ He reâ€" cel ed Lis Collegiate education at the local institution some eight or uiune years ago,and was one of the biightest and _ beet popils that ever passed through Priveipal MNayberry‘s hands.

One day while standing on the hustings side by side with his opponent he was rlolently struck by a dead cat.

Hall on Fiid«y evenivg and was a most succeseful event in every way. There were about 100 youug men present, members of tke ditferent league toams, the Berlin‘ and Royal Hockey Clubs and the seuior Haogers. The lhall was decorâ€"‘ ated with patriotic buntig, flags, and picturee of Queea Victoria, RKobeits, kitchener, Badeoâ€"Powell and Bulin‘s lavorite Hermie Quirmbach. _ The tables were neatly arranged and loadâ€" ed down with good things, put up in a way that only the Women‘s Ausiiary are capable of doing. These ladics have the art of pleasing the appetites , of young mep, down to a science. { After the iuner man bud been appeased ‘ the toast list was proceeded with. The chairman, Mr. E. P. Clement asked‘ all present to join in singing the Naâ€"‘ tional Anthem in response to the toast to the Queen. This was done wil.hj heart and soul. Next came the presâ€"| entation of medals to the Koyals, lhiu} seasop‘s champions. ‘This duty foll to ! Mr. G. Solon Lutz. Before presenting| theim he gave a short and witty speech in which he reviewed the work of the’ Roya‘s, individually and collectively, and complimented their able manager, | Mr C. W. Hagen, for the part he had‘ taken in bringing the champiouship to . the camp of the Royals. ‘The medals: were pinned on by Mrs. L. J. Breitâ€" l haupt amid applause. At the conâ€" elusion of this interesting part of the proceedings, Mr. C. Harry Boehmer rendered a solo which carned a recall. Sec‘y Jansen then read a report of the | league‘s finances. It showed the total: receipts to be $107.10 and expendiâ€"| tures, iacluding the batquet, $87.78 leaving a balance of $19.32 to the‘ good. â€" This is a most creditable showâ€" | ing the lik= of which few sporting orâ€" | ganizations can boast of. The next toast was to Association Football and | was responded to by Mr. H. 1‘. Sims, the old time Ranger goal keeper. He spoke of the benelits to be derived| ‘ from the game, and complimented the | league teams on the good article of football they are putting up. The seniors, he said, are a most erratic I team, sometimes they sweep every ‘ thing before them and oncé in a while they go up into the air of which "5 to 2" at Seaforth is a good instarce. He thought the Rangers of 1838 were the best team Berlin ever bad. That was when they held the championship of North America. A piano solo by Lesâ€" lie Staebler was encored. Then came the presentation of the City Hockey Leazue cup to the Royal Hockey Club. | The last toast was to the ladies. This brought Mr. Leslic Staebler to his feet. When he sat down the boys would rot rest until Mr. Gowling spoke to the same toast. He advised them all to get married.

Cuminings, then editor of the New York Evening Sun, to get the news ahead of the other evening newspapers. A direct wire ran from the jail is Chicaâ€" go to The Evening Sun offics, and an mlert operator was at each end of the wire. ‘The form of the first page was made up and ready to print with the sinâ€" gle exception of a line giving the time of the bhanging. ‘Thkat line was to be insertâ€" ed as soon as the pews flashed from Chiâ€" engo. Then the form would be locked, turned over to the stereotypers, who would make a matrix, stercotype the plates, rush them down to the presses, and in a minute or two more the papers would be in the hands of the newsboys on the street. ‘Then for two hours Cummings and evâ€" ery one else in the office waited for the news of the hanging. The suspense beâ€" came almost unbearable, for all the time the rival paper was selling in the strects and the newsboys‘ cries came in through the windows. As the time dragged on Cummings became more and more neryâ€" ous. He hung around the operator and asked him 100 times if he was sure evâ€" erything was all right. His excitement was intense. At last, when the editor was so wrought up that it was not safe to speak to him, the instrument clicked and the operator yelled out: "Mr. Commings, the drop is falling!" Cummings, who had been walking to and fro, suddenly stopped stock still. His form was rigid. His face worked, and his eyes blazed. Then he roared out at the frightened operator: A roar of laughter from the reporters in the office relieved the tension, the opâ€" erator shouted the «*xact time of the hanging, the foremam of the composing room inserted the lime in the form, and in fre minutes the paper was out.â€"Satur day Wrening Post, About 10 o‘clock in the morning, howâ€" ever, a boy rushed into the office with a copy of an evening newspaper containing an alleged nccount of the banging of the anarchists. "Mere," he said to one of the office toys. "Have & bulletin made of that and put it up is front of the office." ‘"How long does it take a drop to fall in Chicago?" "Look at that!" he cried. "‘They bave not been hanged," answoer ed the operator calmly. "I have this minâ€" ute been talking over the wire to our mam in the jail at Chicago, and he tells me they haven‘t yet left their cells for the weaffold." Cummings grabbed the paper from the boy and rushed with it over to the aperaâ€" tor. # Then Cummings sennned the newspaâ€" per more closely and realiz~1 that it bad anticipated the news. le picked up a it of copy paper and scribbled on it these words: "Beware of bogus extras!"
