H brought hit tugiu across to the Aurora tide, where the stopped only two feet from th edge of the break. Ho deserves credit for staying with hit engine id to great a peiil. The Under broke down aud hung front the engine while the rear end rested on the mast of ruioi below. 'Th car art piled on top of one another and the entire load of rail are dumped in the river. Among the train handt ouiy one was seriously nurt, Mr Harvey, a brakeman. He wat in the act of uncoupling cars, when tht accident occurred, and ' how he ever got out from under the dobrii it something which many teem not to compre hend.

W acknowledge the receipt of a basket of fins cherriet from oar old frieod, While th City council it working in fire matters th following extract from th Scien tific American might interest and instruct them: "The fire department of Marshall, Michigan hat twenty three driven Wells ranging from 63 feet to 110 feet in depth. The piping it of wrought iron, on quarter inch thick and 6 Inch bore. Their average Cost was $325, and they hsve been in use twelve years without any expense. At the recent Convention of the Michigan State Firemen's Association, Chief Burpee said the driven wells were an entire success, and that they had nover been able to pump one f them dryi The Firemen's Jour nal says that numerous othef Instances might bt cited to show that driven wells are service able and trustworthy. Of course they are not available in all places, but where they can be used they are economical and of great value. By attaching pumw to thsra and pumping in to the mains, driven wells have been found to give an abundant supply of water to good sired cities for both domestio and fir purposes, fur nishing streams directly from the hydrant un der sufficient pressure to render splendid ser vice lu putting out fires."

The current there is very strong, and speedily she wo car ried dowu the stream, till she came opposite to wlu-ie her father and others were. The girl was floating on or near the surface, only a few feet from the edge, and was plainly seen by those cm the bank. Immediately her father, Prof Lambert and Rev Wood lumped into the river. I he water was icy cold, the current swift, and being impeded by their clothes, Revs Wood and Driver come very near being drowned, and only just managed to reach th bank. Prof Lambert succeeded In catching hold of the girl, and then had a hard battle with the rushing waters. He is a tall man, and (tumbling over a large bowlder, he got on top of it and stood there, keeping the child above water, until some long poles were ob tained and they wer finally brought safely to land, Dexter Items.
