TRAIN SCHEDULE
OUT OF WHACK

The train schedule still continued TO be
out of whack Thursday, the morning
trains being behind time few minutes,
train No. 49, due over the back road at
las, was 40 minutes late and the two aft
ernoon express trains were both off time,
pulling into the station practically to-
gether, which made more delay for both
OF them. The air line on the west-bound
train being out Of order and the lack OF
car inspectors made a delay until Fore
man Eliot could get around to fix it The
baggage and express harflers had a
strenuous time as the east-bound train
came in on the outside track and all the
baggage and express had to be handled
across the tracks.

'SHAWMUT JAM
WORTH SEEING

Many people from this city are going
to Shawmut these fine days to see the
big pile Of logs still on the dam there.
The logs were piled up onto the dam at
the time of the freshet which caused the
big boom there to break. The fact that
they iag1med on the dam kept them there
and undoubtedly saved considerable dam
age further down river. 1t is expected
that considerable dynamite is to be used
in order to get them started again, and
much work viii be involved as the logs
were washed to a considerable distance
from the river and all Of these will have
to be rolled back by hand. The logs now
make quite sight and have attracted
a great r1any people as it is just a good
ride up there in either an automobile or
in the electric cars.

of the German craft either fell or jump
ed from it and disappeared at the mo-
ment OF the first burst of fire from the
gun on the Canadian. The German OBJ

hold and plunged headlong. The aviatik
turned its nose down and fell.
