Gasoline Explosion Markdale had a little excitement on Tuesday evening when an explosion took place at one of the gas tanks at the Lucas 8: Jackson garage. Mr. Jack Elliott, distributor for the Imperial Oil 00., had been filling one of the tanks from which the gasoline is lifted by an. automatic pump. The pump was in op- '. eration and Mr. Elliott removed the hose from the holder in order to dis- connect the electric contact. In replac- ing it apparently a short circuit wasl made and the explosion occurred. The force of the explosion damaged the pump considerably and cracked the ce- 1 ment walk in several places. The cap? was oil the pipe leading to the tank: and the escaping gas took the but Mr.- Wm.

The 093. passenger train. which has been running in ancient of Walk- erton for the past quarter of a. century, made its final trip there on Saturday, April 30, ~and with its passing Walk- erton not only loses an excellent ser- vice, but what is probably equally as important from a municipal standpoint isthelosstothetownotthesixtrain- men and their families who will move elsewhere as a consequence of the clos- ing of the regular passenger run. Conductor George Walker, who has been punching passenger tickets for many years, goes to the branch run- ning out of Elora, to which town he and his wife are preparing to move. Trainman Herb. 'I‘rimble, who has been on the passenger run here since the opening of the line in 1906, goes to Toronto, and with his wife and fam- ily will shortly make their home in the Queen City, as will also Brakeman Condutor O’Mara, Fireman Geo. Par- cells and Engineer Thos. Randle, with their wives and families, will all move to Teeswater, from which point the above trio will operate. The merging of the passenger, freight and express service into what is known as a “Mixed Train,” and which went into effect on this branch on Monday, May 2, gives a morning instead of a night passenger service up from Toâ€" ronto, and reduces the personnel of the C. P. R. staff from ten trainment to a crew of four. This in accordance with an economy program of elimination that is being instituted over the entire system. Walkerton, when it got its secondl transcontinental railway into town a; quarter of a century ago, considered it; had the world by the tall as far as pas- I senger service and shipping facilities1 go but the advent of the auto and the truck marked a new era and the urge for good highways supplanted the erst- while race for railroads, with which the '_ Bruce capital had then been so excel-l lently equipped.
