a shock but a noise. It was such that it awakened every one in the car. J. J. Curran, M. P., of Montrea), was sleeping on a sofa nearest the door and he is sure it was an explosion. Sir John affirms that he heard a distinct explosion. So does his Secretary, Pope. An examination of the car shows that it was no accident. Some one either had a bomb planted on the track or threw one at the passing car and timed it well. The fright sustained by the in- mates of the car was such that one of them said he frankly believed his hour had come. The car is now lying at the station. Al- though none of the Ministers would say what had been done to ascertain the truth, it is believed that two special officers from the Dominion agency have been detailed to report on the matter.

——_-—— Smith's Remarkable Jump.
FROM THE TOP OF A 160 PooT CHIMNEY HANGING TO AN UMBRELLA SIICK. *
Ait Walkill and surrounding country were thrown into a state bordering on insanity when they read the announcement of the intention of George Smith, the gen- eral utility man of J.C. Beach & Bro., at
their mill, to out-do not only Brodie, of East River bridge fame, but Larry Dono- van, the Niagara artist as well. George is
+ or
man of about 27 summers, and in his very occupation of a man of all work he has become a trained athlete.
In order to show the general public what he could do, he asked and obtained per- inission to leap, on Thanksgiving day, from the smoke stack of the paper mill. It looked like a fool-hardy attempt, yet, des- pite the protestation of friends, and after sharp evasions of officers of the law, he has successfully aceomplished a mest wonder- fol and stccessful performance, Exactly at half-past two he emerged from the finishing room of the paper null, where his trainer, Jeli Wells, had put on a few last touches. Making his way to the foot of the stack, without hesitation he unmediately com menced his perilous ascent. A few moments only were consumed in reaching the top, where he regaled the horrified assmblage by standing on his head in the network at the top, then on signal from his trainer he com- menced to haul up the only artificial assist- ance he received. it consisted of a large umbrella, much in the style of those used by market men. After adjusting his shoes he hoisted the umbrella, and to music by the Wallkill drum corps he leaped ints the air. He seemed to have caleulated the dis- tance well, for, by a series of gyrations that the pigeon who picks up rye at the mill door could not excel, he kicked and sailed over the top of the straw-stacks, over the mill stable, and with a last expiriug flop fell in the Wallkill. There he was rescued by the new postinaster, who, true disciple of Izaak Walton that he is, was taking his first holiday since appomtment. Save a slight nausea, Smith experienced no evil etiects from his jump. The stack is 160 feet high.—Walkill Valley Times.

The Abuse of Liquor.
VIEWS OF KENTUCKY LIQUOR DEALERS ON LICENSES, SUNDAY CLOSING AND SHE- BEENS.
The executive committee of the National Protective Association of liquor dealers met at Louisville, a few days ago, and decided that a moderate license system would be the most beneficial to the trade and the public, and that it would be to the interest of wholesale and retail dealers to eliminate fraud in evading the payment of lawful licenses; also to prevent the sale of liquors to minors, to close saloons on Sunday, and if possible, to induce municipalities to cease granting licenses to disorderly establish- ments. The committee held that it was the abuse of liquor that did harm, and charged this mainly to city governments allowing licenses to improper parties.
