The Arions have created a most favora- } le impression , and should they again ) ass this way , a crowded house is a certainty. a and soft coal , best quality , at Hallack & Howard's lumber yard. n Passenger train No. 1 , Saturday night , met with an accident , just as she was n lulling into the east switch at Oxfo'rd station , whereby the entire train , ( save rear day coach and sleeper , ) was de railed. The accident was occasioned by the breaking of the pin in the connect- ng rod of the switch , allowing the rails o spread. The train was probably run ning at the rate of 30 miles an hour at the time , and it is wonderful that no ) articular damage or loss of life occurvv red. After some delay , the engine of a 'reight train , then lying at that station , was drafted into tiie service , and No. 1 continued her journey , arriving at this station about three hours late. Supt. Campbell went down to the scene of the accident on a freight train , and the de- ailed engine was put to rights in short metre. For real genuine good luck the d J. & M. is justly entitled to the'cookies. . " Ii [ New Store ! New Goods ! L. Lowman t Son , Pate Block , Main Street. 'Another Soul Made Happy.
