Herber [sic] Satchel of Netwonbrook was arrested by C. C. Lawrence on Saturday afternoon on a charge of attempting to derail Metropolitan Railway cars. Huge boulders were placed along the track for some distance, and one was found on the steep hill here, close to the bridge crossing the Don. If a car had been thrown off at this spot, several fatalities could scarcely have been avoided. Satchel will appear before Magistrate Ellis on Wednesday on this charge.—Tuesday's World.
