However, in two or throe weeks we will be in a posi- tion to return to your town and continue negoli.-ition already opened, with a view of building the line chartered in your section."

Only train hands are said to have been seriously in- jured. The tireman, a brakeman and a colored porter of tho east bound train •wore killed. Some people from this section ai'o supposed to have been on the tniih, but no word of any of them being injured h«s been received. Tho wreck was caused liy the west-bound train over- running its orders. A Sweet Boiling Down One of the chief products of spring weather, alonglwitli maple syrup, is sugar- ing off "yarns." A good one reached the ear of The Advance recently. Here it is : At a neatby community a number of young men entered a neighbor's .•sugar- bush, and fouiid a kettle hung up, tilled with what was apparently sap, but the camp was suspiciously deserted. However they .set to work with .'i will, kindled a tire under the kettle and soon had it boil- ing merrily. The smoke and cinders were easily tolerated in the light of tho sweet- nes.s-to-bo. As tho "aap" boiled down the usual sweetness failed to materialize, and after several hours of waiting, the would-be inisoreanta discovered that they were boiling plain un.^dulterated water, and the laugh was on them. The Horses Speak The Advance man and the people of Fiesherton: Take notice that the undersigned are now and have been for some time on our annual rounds of trimming shade trees, orananontal trees and shrubbery, and we will trim them to a peak if you don't keep them iu or put us in pound.
