In tribute to the late Charles NJ. Hays,
vice president and general manager of
the Grand Trunk, and president of the
Grand Trunk Pacific, every wheel on the
system was stopped for five minutes
Thursday, from 1880 A. NJ. TO ll:35,
eastern standard time. This was during
the course OF the memorial services for
him at the American Presbyterian
Church in Montreal, of which he was for
many years q member and trustee.
Emigrauts by successive train loads
continue to go over the Grand Trunk,
several specials with emigrsnts who
landed in Portland having gone west
during the past week. Bradford Chap
ter, K. A. NJ, of Auburn, which was TO
have visited Oxford Chapter at Norway
last Tuesday evening, was unable to get
a special train, for the reason that the
road was using all its cars and borrowing
from other roads for the emigrant bust
ness. Most of these smigrsuts go into
western Canada.
The Democrat will shortly begin pub
LEGATION, as a serial, of Gene Stratton-
POrter's story, "Freckles." This, as is
doubtless well known, has been one of
the "best Sellers" still il is to be pre-
sumed that many of the Democrats
readers have not read it. Like many
other best sellers, the story has its
literary faults, but it is nevertheless a
story both sweet and clean, and withal
entertaining. Freckles, the one-armed
guardian of the Limberlost, and student
of nature from the vantage ground of
the forest, is one of the interesting
characters OF recent fiction.
The grand organ demonstration ban
quet to be held Tuesday evening, May

of purchasing tickets to the evening OF
