A-dUastrous collision .occurred-on Wed nesday morning at Sydney just oufeid" the mil way siaiion at Kfdfern, ihe principal suburb of Sydney, when an incoming Parramat'.a train, crowded with business people from the suburban stations, met an outgoing Goulbmn express on the same set of rails, with the result that the engines and carriages -were telescoped. Thirty persons were injured and three have died. The cause of the accident appears to have been that the signalman heard the whistle, but thought it was for the engine to go on. and allowed the signal to drop. The driver of the (ioulbnrn train mistook the signal, and steamed out. A well-known townsman, was in n bootmakers shop the other day, in town, {iYi;;b!ed about n pair of boots, new. which he declared were much too long for him, and which, perhaps naturally, the artist declared tilted a? they should. It may be a matter for wonder, in these hard times, to remark, that ihe townsman entered the shop with some' 'cheques- in his hand, he left without tlvm, not because he paid for thusn boos, bnl because he resisted the busings instinct of iho mak»r to get him in accept his statement about th" At. After much Irving on, we are ep'-jflvirig about the.boofs, and not tho boot-maker, ii was decided that they need not bo Uk-n nml that another pair would be immediately put in hand. Peace and harmony prevailed throughout, and with his pleasant smile the bootmaker pi tied th« lvjoetrd pair in h»3 window convinced l hey = would not lvmain long before a sale was effected. " Right you are '" and out went our towns, man, but he soon relnrnr-d — "When I came in I had some cheques in my hand." Certainly you had, I saw them." " I have not got. them in my pockets." Th'-n came a lime ot tribulation and woe, umil a third person suggested, (he townsman looking into the boots.-' Ol'i came the hoots,' but no cheques. The new boots were suggested and beh.o'd, I hero wer« th* civ ques placed as. a sort of bonus to whoever might have bought. Needless to say the chequ -s were pffcketod and au ev.emful occurrence ended. How did tfee cheques get theiv ? Simply from the purchaser requiring his hands "to put on his boots and *o rtlricod the cheques elsewhere. S meone lo*t ii u'bble. M. Pona,- Hi* -principle assistant nf M.
