TROLLEY ACCIDENT. “7illiam Clarkson, a farmer, who re- sides in the township of King, west of Aurora, met with an accident on Fri- day afternoon which might have cost him his life. He was leaving the hotel shed at Bedford Park with his wagon and team of horses when his rig was struck by a passing car on the Metro- politan Railway. The car struck the wagon and threw it against a tele- graph pole. The driver was thrown in from of the car, but the wheels did not pass over him. The wagon was smashed, and both horses were more or less injured. The man had several scalp wounds, but no bones were broken. and he will be out in a few days. By all accounts the motorman did all in his power to avert the acci- dent, and no blame is attached to him. There are many dangerous places along Yonge Street, and both motor- men and the travelling public should be continually on the look out. Two curling rinks went to New- market‘. on Friday last and played a friendly match with an equal number of that town. Aft-91' n sharp contest the visitors Won by '7 points.
