Near St. Mary's. A Brother and Sister, of Blanshard, the Victims--Their Bodies Hurled The head of the young man was bat- tered almostto a pnip. Miss Hayes also had a severe scalp wound, and one of her legs was crushed. Their clothes} were somewhat torn and displaced, a peculiar thing in that connection being the displacement of the footwear. A pair of slippers, worn by Miss Hayes, were found under her brother's body, while his rubbers were either partly under or close by her body. The horses got safely away, and when a Herald reporter left for St. Mary's this morning no news of their recovery had reached town. The train, No. 279, was in charge of Conductor Fred. Chalmers, of Sarnia, with vay ark of this rg as "engin- nie +3 A {along so that Con- ductor Chalmers could not delay long- er than to let a brakeman off to look after the bodies.

Stratford, Oct. 19.--To the long list | t the near Shochottem's | corners, about rour miles west of St. Mary's the London Road, Blan- shard, another terrible catastrophe is to be added, that fatal spot having been the scene on Saturday night of the death of two well known and pop- "nlar young people of the section. About 11 o'clock a west bound freight train raninto a Richard Franklin Hayes and his sis- ter Mary Aun Hayes, who reside on the 10th concession of Blanshard. The young people were returning home from a visit to their brothers and sis- ters in St. Mary's, where they had spent a pleasant eveniog. Shey were driving a spirited team horses, nttached toa covered buggy, and as the night was somewhat stormy the side blinds were closely drawn. Whether they, had any warning of their danger will probably never be accurately known. - The railway cross- iug at this point emerges from a deep of accide:t int have ocenrred at G. T.

The bodies of the inmates were found lying about six zods up the track and not far apart. each of escaping with their demolished, them narrowly lives. Many nar- brow escapes are also related. Saved Her Grandson BUT LOST HER OWN LIFE IN DOING So-- THE TROLLEY CAR'S FIRST VICTIM AT GUELPH. Guelph, Ont., October 19,.--The first fatal accident to be recorded in with the Guelph electric street railway took place to-day, and the victim was Mrs. George Truckle, a) widow woman, over 50 years of uge, connection residivg with her son, John on James street, Brooklyn. Her little grand- son, Charles Swindlehurst, attempted to cross the track in front of a car, Mrs. Truckle caught hold of him avd tried to pull him out of dauger, but in trying to save her grandson's life, she lost her own. They were both caught by the car, which was getting to ascend the hill. The motorman seemed unable to stop the car very quickly, as both the woman and the child were drugged a- long for about 50 or 60 feet. The victim of the tragedy must have been killed instantly, as, when taken from the front wheels of the car, she was doubled up ina horrible way. Both legs were apparently broken, as well as her back, while her head was crushed badly. The body of the victim xcted as a sort of shield for the child, who beyond an ugly scalp wound escaped further when up speed and bruises, in- juries. A The trustees of S.

W. Waldren, perhaps better known as 'Charley Waldren," for he has lived in Guelph almost continuously since he was three years of age, and he has now passed the 38th mile post. Mr. Waldren is a monlder, and has worked at that busi- ness for 22. years ;and besides, being noted asa steady workman, he is a man whose yeracity is unquestioned, It is a well known fact here that Mr. Waldren had to quit work in January 1896, on account of a severe attack of sciatica, and for eleven weeks was un- able todo a tap. Knowing that he was againat work a Mercury reporter called at his residence one evening to learn the exact facts of the case. Mr. Waldren, when spoken to on the sub- ject, replied quite freely, aud had no hesitation in crediting Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with his remarkable reco- very.

After using two boxes I noticed an improvement, and I kept on nsing them. When I had boxes I was back at work again. I kept on until I had finished the &th box, and I never felt better in my life.
