I Saturday, October 3rd, 1885. On Monday morning last a lad named Hogan, about 16 years of age, was ar~ rested on information laid by Mr. H. W. Greene, of the firm of Greene St Ellis, and in the afternoon of the same day was taken before Messrs. John Austin and James Dickson, J. R's, charged with having threatened to burn l d .wu his cmploycis‘ mill. The witness- ,es were I‘ldwin Lace and Alexander Parker, both in the employ of Greene d: Ellis, who deposed that. the defendant had made the threats in their hearing ; but Hogan told a different story. He said that some months ago he had been engaged by Mr. Greene in I’cterboro' to work for his firm at $9 a month and l board ; that when he Settled up recently he was only allowed 31 a mouth ; and that upon telling the witnesses, in reply to their enquiries, how he had been ' treated, one of them had said it would serve Greene right to level the mill, and the other had expressed the opinion that he ought to be killed. 11c (Hogan) had simply endorsed these remarks as well as some rather strong language In dispnragemeot of Mr. Greene, but he had neither threatened to burn the mill nor had any intention of' doing so. Lace and Parker, however, declared positively that. he had openly Inadc such threats in their presence, and the magistrates finally bound the defend- ant over to keep the peace, himself in $500 and two surctics in $250 each, or to go to jail for six months. As he had neither money nor influential friends he was sent. next day in charge of Con- stable Nevison to Lindsay, where he will probably have to serve his time, unless the judge does something for him, or the friends he claims to have at. I’cterborough become his surcties. If Messrs. Greene 5.: Ellis will take our advice, they will have a written agree- meat with all the men who enter their service after this date, in order to pre vent similar unseemly, and we may add dangerous, squabblcs with their em- ployees 0n the subject of wages. The verdict of a jury or the decision of a magistrate, thoughIhmIestly given, may not. be in accordance with truth. though it may be with the evidence; and when a man who believes he hue been cheated out of putt of his wages is sent to prison for expressing his exasperation in un- reasonable language, all the vindictive- “(3)5 01' his nature is apt to be aroused. Employers may have as bad memories as working men, and whether it was Mr. Greene or Hogan who made the mistake in regard to wages was not set- tled at the trial on Monday. The lat- ter may have been wrong and yet have l believed that he was right; and, there- l line, it 13 better to have a written agree- ment in such cases to prevent misun» deratandiugs, threats and lawsuits. On Tuesday evening Patrick Rogers , was arrested lur being drunk and disor~ 'dcrly and put in the lock-up for the night. John :\tI.~tiu, J. I’., who. after hearing the evidence, sentenced him to paya line of $2 and $4 ‘25 costs or to go to ,jail for 30 days at hard labor. He went. I l i l Gone to His Rest.

It is gtlaran tct-d to be of good quality. and is dcliv- ‘ ered to consumers at $7 per tonâ€"75 cents less than was paid but year. Quite a number of persons in the Falls now burn coal, and it is rumoured that i wood, in comrqucnce of the (Inert-[hing demand for it, will be cheaper next winter than it has been for a longtime. FEKELON Snow, â€"The Fenclon AI:- ricoltural f‘rmiity's annual fall show was: I loud at Glenarm on Monday last, and is mid to have been fully up to the average.

GRAIN Bt?\'£RS.â€"Thc farmers of? this vicinity will not be under the uc-l l ee<sity of taking their grain to Lindsay g the Coming season in order to secure. the highest prices. as there will be so much competition amongst the buych at It‘cuclon Falls that the lust cent will be paid. Messrs. McDougall, Brandon tk Allan, Mes.~r~‘. Wm. Webster & II. M. Butler, and Mr. Joseph Mc.\rt|rur, are all to be an the market. and have already rented the railway storehouse. which is divided into three compart- ments, each capable of holding several thousand bushels. Then there is Mr. Jordan’s store-house, anti as it is not at all likely to be idle. there will probably be at least four buyer.». to bid Riallht each other for the wheat. oats, pcasc and barley brought into the village. A Most Desperate Tragedy. S'r. Lotus, Sept. ZStli.â€".-\ most des- perate tragedy occurred in the villago of Cottonwood Point, in this state. on Friday night. Two intoxicated stran- gers got into a dispute and then had a rough and tumble fight over the Weight of a halo of cotton, but they were separ~ ated by bystanders. Shortly after, how- ever, the men renewed their light and mutually agrccd, in order that neither should have an advantage over the oth- er, that they ahould clasp their left hands together and fight only with their right hands. This arranged. each man with a revolver in his right hand began the bloody work. chcu shots wvrc exchanged, when one of the men ft‘” dead with four bullets in his head and breast. while the other sunk to the ground, bleeding and dying from two or three desperate wounds. .-.-__ N orth-West Notes. The Italians on the reserve at the mouth of the Bird Tail and the Indians of Oak Lake have been most. fortunate with their wheat. crops this season. and their grain is unusually good. This is partly owing to the light character of the land; but it is most. gratifying to learn that the Indians have been suc- cessful, us it will give them encourage ment. The squaws on the different rc- serves are. giving much attention to the cultivation of onions, and succeed in raising large quantities, which always bring good prices. These people soon become very fond of a fine garden, and keep the ground clean and in good order. Au dispatch from Edmonton says:â€" A strange white man was brought to Victoria settlement. lately in a starving condition by an Indian of the Walt-sat- now band. This Indian, named Bear's Ear, was hunting moose in thc womls a long way north of Victoria, when he came upon the track of a white man. He followed the track through swamp and brush until at last he came upon a man lying on the ground exhausted, and nearly dead of hunger. He was unable to >peak with weakness, and his face was covered with scabs from fly-bites. The Indian, with the hpr of his horse. succeeded in getting the man to his tent. where he fed and revived him, and finally brought him to Victoria. The man says that he is an American, and was residing at Battlcford. and that af- ter Cltter’s fight with I’oundmakcr he left. Battlcford by the south side of the river for British Columbia. He had no gun, and lived on berries. Ilavin: lost. his way, he cros>cd the Saskatche- wan about fifty miles below Victoria by swimming. I'Ic travelled westward from there, but in the woods north of the trail, until found as de~cribcd by the Indian. About two weeks ago he arm. as he was paSsing the sottlenwnt at a distance, some of the Victoria people, who were picking bcrrics in rear of'tlic settlement. 110. is recovering, and will remain at Victoria if he can get work. ._ ...-,._...- ...__ .
