The Earl of Bradford has offered to present to the
Town Council, on certain terms and conditions, which have
been agreed to, 46 acres of land at Reed's Wood, nearWalsalle
for a public recreation ground.
It is stated that the Mayor of Crewe has paid into
the hank the sum of £5OO towards providing a public park
for the town, the donation being made in lieu of giving ban-
quets during his year of office.
It is stated that no fewer than 5 400 dogs have been
killed during the season at the New York City dog-pound,
which has just been closest. The contractor is said to have
realised a line profit on the skins, which he sold to the
glove makers.
His Eminence Cardinal Manning will leave London
on Thursday, the 6th of November, on his way to Rome, to
take part in the 25th anniversary of the definition by the
late Pontiff. Plus IX., of the dogma of the Immaculate Con-
ception. o:her Reman Catholic prelates of England are
expected to proceed to Rome to be present on the occasion
of the anniversary, which will be kept with great solemnity.
A rather curious incident eccurred recently when the
Royal Artillery were shooting off a regimental carbine
match. While one of the competitors was tiring at 300 yards
a crow crossed the range. The bullet went clean through
the bird, and made a low "outer" on the target. The crow
was picked up quite dead, the bullet having passed through
the cheat under the wings.
Two thousand colliers struck work on Tuesday
morning in the Produits Flenn pits, in Belgium, and were
followed at noon by the men in the Mons it Cooly pits. The
reason assigned in both cases is the refusal of the employers
to grant an increase of wages.
By the breaking of the drawbar of a waggon in the
mineral train at Dairy on Tuesday morning two waggons
got in the way of the Pullman 7.12 train from Kilmarnock
to Greenock. Steam was shut off, but too late to avoid a
collision, and the engine was thrown across the line, block-
ing the traffic. The driver and stoker were hurt, but the
passengers escaped with a shaking.
