A horrible accident happened on the
G. T. K. last Saturday afternoon near
Waterville, Que. George Hoerner of
Richmond was firing on special freight
train coming to Island Pond, and when
near Waterville the pin connecting the
engine and tender broke causing them to
break apart, and George fell between
them to the ground, fifteen cars passing
over him. When the train was brought
to a standstil! he was found pinned down
under the wheels of car, and it had to
be lacked up before he could be released.
As NAV be surmised he was injured in a
shocking manner, one leg cut off at the
thigh, the other almost of just above
the ankle, one hand cut off, besides in
juries to the head and body. He was
placed on the express train and taken to
Sherbrooke. During the journey to
Sherbrooke although suffering excruciat-
ing pain, he never lost consciousness,
but complained of the terrible pain IN his
back. and offered up frequent prayers,
God have mercy upon me-" The ambu-
lance was at Sherbrooke when the tram
arrived and George was at once taken to
the hospital, where everything that
could possibly be done for HIM was DONE
but without avail, for the unfortunate
man died at Z 80 O'Clock. He had been
running between Richmond and Island
Pond the past six or seven years iortwo
summers running on the express withen'
gineer |. P. Ferguson, and was a young
man thoroughly liked by all his nssoci'
ates, and one who enjoyed the friendship
of all acquainted with him. Deceased
was about &c years of age and unmar
ried. Richmond seems to have been pc
culiarIv unfortunate the past few years
in having SO many good citizens los'
their lives by railroad accidents. Funera
services were held at Richmond last Non
day and were attended by a delegation
OF nine of the brotherhood OF locomotive
firemen from this place.

The crying need of Island Pond TODAY,
and we might almost say one as urgent
as good water system, is thorough
system of drainage. This is a matter
that concerns the public health, and in-
stead of being at the rear OF the process
sion in a community 50 far advanced in
modern ideas as we are credited with, it
should by all means be at the head, and
we shall be sadly at fault it we do not
give this subject more of our thought
and attention. As the matter stands
now our present imperfect system OF
drainage is standing menace to health
and may be in the near future vile
breeder of disease. Who can tell? Then
"let us be up and doing"

shortly after o'clock last Monday az
ternoon by the alarm OF fire, and well
they might be for a heavy wind storm
was raging. Again our lucky star was
in the ascendeucy, for the fire-in the G.
T. K. coal shed-was fortunately discov-
cred before it had much Roadway. and
was consequently easily extinguished.
We shall have fire brigade and effective
apparatus for dealing with fires some
day, but let us hope it will not be too
late. The fire originated from sparks
from the cast sound express train.
