 A man narrowly escaped being struck by the afternoon express tram one day last week, as he attempted to cross the tracl.S in front of the train coming from behind a long l,ne of freight cars on the siding. The shrill whistle of the engine and the GuIck application of the air brakes startled the pOpulace but an accident was averted by the man get ting accroSs the tracks before the en- zine struck him.
 The largest crowd eyer at q dance at the Masonic hall was in attendance at the St Patrck's Day dance, last week Wednesday evening. It was almost too large for comfort, convenience and en- tertainment. and the Young Ladies' club feels amply repaid for the time labor and effort spent in plannirg the event, the only regret being that they could not have fOrSeen the numbers and been better prepared to entertain them. The club wishes to thank every one in at tendance for their helrty support The hall was very pleasingiy decorated in red, white and blue and greer. a large green flag draping one side of the stage and the stars and stripes the other, banner of red. white and blue being green letters was the salutation, "The top O the evenm to ye," Other notices in letters of green. such as "A bit O blarney" Remember green Erin" 'St PatricK's Day and Erin go Bragh." were around the hall while from cen ter of American flags. streamers of red. white and blue and green were fcs- t0NHcd to the corners of the ceiling. The extra piece of musfc added much to the enjoyment of the occasion and most of all the Club feels it has spelled sue cess with its series of dances when fail lre was the word predicted.
