Two log trains collided on the main
track, this side of and near Mud
Lake Junction depot, last Monday
The train dispatcher ordered long
timber train to meet Morrison's train
at Roe lake, and ordered Malcolm to
take his train to Mud Lake station.
There being only one track, the two
conductors were unable to carry out
the orders, and the result was that
the two trains met on curve. The
engineers of the two trains did all
they could to prevent collision, but
the distance was too short, when they
first saw each other, for the engines
to be stopped before colliding. The
engineers and firemen saved them
selves by jumping, but the engines
undertook to climb over each other.
The result was a bad wreck. Both
engines were disabled, many of the
log cars were wrecked, and the line
blocked. The attempt to have two
trains pass each other on a single
track has always proved a failure.
1t can not be done.

There is likelihood of a war in

of school district number seven. A
school house had been erected in one
part of the district. Last fall it dis
appeared. Recently it was discover
ed in another part of the district
Whether the said school house went
on tramp on its own accord, or
whether is was moved by human agen-
cy, is yet a mystery, but the intention
is to march that school house back to
its former location. This roaming at
large of county school houses can not
be permitted. They must be learned

has been increased to 40 cents. The
fare to Black River has been increas-
ed from 60 cents to 70 cents, and the
fare to Roe Lake has been reduced
from 80 cents to 50 cents. The change
in the fares between said places and
this city is owing to the change in
mileage. The distance between this
city and Ossineke has been found to
be 13 and two.tenths miles instead of
IL miles. The old measurement was
up to the Washington avenue depot.

How to Distinguish tho Honest Article
from Its COunterEeits.
Mr.. John Horsley, in the Chemical
News, gives the following simple test for
distinguishing butter adulterated with
ard or other fats. It is we'll to begin
with two samples-one' of undoubtedly
pure butter and the other Of an article
which 10 known to be adulterated. so
that the exact difference between the
two when submitted to the test process
may be distinctly noticed and remcm-
bered. Then have ready two test tubs
about four inches high, and place one
sample in each. about the size of hazel
nut, corking the tubes and marking
them SO that they will not get con-
founded with each other. Then take
one tube in each hand. grasping it by
the bottom. In ten minutes the butter

Pure butter takes twice IS long to melt
as butterine, and even then is not %
clear and oily as butterine, which 10

cal test, after the tubs have stood to

about one-third, fill the tube and cork
