A freight train going east jumped
the rails at Thornton last Friday
and lined both sides of the track
with broken cars and scattered con.
tents. Twelve or more cars were
wrecked and wheat, oil. tobacco
and other freight were piled pro-
miscupusly on every side. Nobody
was hurt.
The operators OF the Newburg
mines, have granted an advance Of

being sunk to reach seam of coal
not convenient to get at from the
old shaft.
Jake Kilrain accompanied by
several companions passed through
here on No. last Saturday morn
ing. and as the train laid over for
breakfast, the celebrated pugilist
strolled about the platform and
naturally attracted great deal of
attention when his identity became
known. Jake Was just in from the
Pacific coast and the scene of his
late encounter and defeat at the
hands of McAuliffc, the Australian
giant.
1t is gratifying to Grafton people
to know that the overwhelming sue
cess of the recent State Sunday

Martin wrote some 800 letters to
Sundays school officials all over the
State and the majority of those
who attended declared they did 80
because of the kind. christian in

Martin.
