The leciure on Christian Science â€"delivered last evening at the Christâ€" ian Science Church at the corner of Francis and Water street was atâ€" tended by a large crowd. The lecture was one of the most informing upon the subject of Christian Science that: has been heard in this city. Charles I. Ohrenstein C. S. B. member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church was the lecturer. Previous to the lecture the audience was enâ€" tertained with a programme of music by H. L. Staebler; Mr. Pugsiey preâ€" sided as chairman and introduced the lecturer. As soon as the news of the accident was telephoned to the car barns a crew rushed to the spot and began clearing the tracks for the resumpâ€" tion of traffic. Owing to the fact that the vestibules of the two cars were so tightly wedged together it took considerable time and work before the wrecking crew wore able to sepâ€" arate them. As soon as the two ears were separated they wero taken to the barns where repair work immedâ€" fately began. They will both be in service again in a short time. The crew of the Bridgeport car were J. Fries, conductor; and Â¥. Schier, motorman. ‘The Kitchenerâ€" Waterloo car was operated by F. Marâ€" in, mmotorman; and G. Davis, condueâ€" tor. ed and many windows broken. The glass from windows was scattered .all over the street making it difficult for the passage of motor traffic. The damage to the Bridgeport car was considerably more than that to the Kitchenerâ€"Waterloo car. The fender was smashed, vestibule steps damagâ€" No. 20 of the Kitchenerâ€"Waterloo line was just passing Water street on its way to Waterioo when the Bridgeport car crashed into it. The vestibules of both cars were badly damaged, one vestibule being wedged into the other. The step of car No. 20 was smashed and the rear truck broken. The accident happened as the Bridgeport car was turning . from Water street into King street. Car Bridgeport car No. 11 crashed into car No. 20 of the Kitchener and Watâ€" erloo line _ at the corner of Water and King Sts.. Friday evening at 6 o‘clock causing considerable damage to both cars and tying up traffic for some time. No one was hurt but the passengers on both cars received a bad shaking up. | PASSENGERS SHAKEN Bridgeport Car Rams K.â€"W.

Clement, Acting for a trio of the prisoners, made a strong plea for ‘his clients that they be allowed out on bail in the meantime. The Court could not agree to this without the consent of the Crown Attorney and Mr. Bowlby would not agree. When pressed for his reason for refusing the request the Crown Attorney said: "On behaif of the best interests of justice that they remain in jail, and I don‘t think it is in the interests of justice to make them public." _ _An adjournment was made until Oct. 9th at the request of Crown Attorney Bowlby of the trial of Walter Simon, William Mike, Ludwig Rekofski and Stephen Willick the four men who are charged with liighwny_ robbery when it is alleged that they held up and robâ€" bed one Mike Hashuk of Galt.
