Hugh Dever, Joseph Hussey and Charles
Johnson, came to their deaths on Dccem-
Der ID, 1890, by being struck by train 81,
on track 4, Pennsylvania Railroad, at Mill
street, Bristol borough, in consequence of
the electrical appliance which rings The
alarm bell in the gateman's house not
working properly and the gates being up.
And We consider similar accidents liable
to occur at any time, as the Mill street
crossing is d very dangerous one. Under
present conditions an additional safeguard
would be to have man stationed on the
track to watch both ways every time be-
fore the gates are raised and while they
are up. But we do not believe any system
can be devised that will make this cross
ing safe as long as the railroad tracks
cross at grade.

TO- 1t is good sign in the religious
world, that all Christian bodies are paying
greater regard to the observance of the
Church year. For the chief holy days OF
the Calendar are memorials of the saving
acts of Chrst's life and in helping them,
we both honor our Lord and also have
His example brought prominently to our
notice, for imitation. Thus our minds
are turned more TO the person-a Saviour,
less to The dogmas and opinions OF men.
AS consequence, there is an increase in
practical charity, good works and kind
feelings, and less disposition to discuss,
YEARLY, the varying notions about free
will, fate, election, repIobalion, &C., that
used to amuse the intellect while souring
the temper and paralyzing the useful ac-
tivites OF the dispntants.
TO keep" Christmas, Good Friday,
Easter aud Ascension Day Alright, is to be-
come better and happier Christians.
The first Of these days now has well
nigh universal Observance at least in the
interest of the children.
II Tue Churches are moi yet all open, on
the 25tn 81 December, to celebrate Chrisrs
nativity, yet on some day or evening near
il there is sure to be gathering Of the
children and those who love children,
making "Merry Christmas" with gifts and
evergreens, and singing carols and listen
ing TO The sweet story of the wonderful
night, the Angels music, and the visit Of
the Shepherds.
LambcrtVille, as usual, had its Child
rcu's Celebrations, in all the Churches.

addition to the customary canticles and
hymns sung by the mixed choir and the
congregation. On the Sunday following
there was repetition of the Christmas
music.
