On Saturday last the railway terminus was the scene of considerable bustle. The Railway employes, with their wives and families, mustered in great force, their destination being the Willow Bridge race course. At the various stations numbers of folks, big and little, joined the excurtionists, and by the time the pleasureseekers arrived on the course they must have numbered about three hundred. The weather was extremely tine and very propitious for those who wished to enjoy their outing. The visitors soon settled themselves in groups to witness the sports which were very succssfully carried out. The booth and grand stand were in the charge of Mr. Maitland, who provided refreshments and aa excellent lunch.
