Redmen Were Breaking Down Beaver Dam, Which Is Against the Law, When He Interfered With Them -- Only His Strength and Tenacity Saved Him From Dying Alone In the Wilds. SUDBURY, Ont., Nov. 22.--Badly beaten up by Indians and left on the shore of John Creek, near Turbine, last week, William Ohellew, a game warden, was the 'Victim of a brutal attack when he attempted to arrest an Indian for breach of the game laws. Chellew was left for dead, and lay half in and half out of the water at the edge of the creek, from four o'clock in the afternoon until nine o'clock/the following morning, when he was sufficiently revived to crawl to Turbine. The game warden came upon an Indian who was tearing down a beaver dam, and, as this is unlawful, ordered the man to come with him. They prepared to paddle down the creek, but just as Chellew was stepping into his canoe, another Indian crept up behind him and attacked him with a club, battering him over the head until he was unconscious. It is presumed that the Indians then gave him a beating up, as when he recovered consciousness, both eyes were blackened covered with bruises and A DARING OPERATION. Young Toronto Doctor Saved the Life of a Seaman. MONTREAL, Nov. 22.--A big storm which carried away part of her bridge, and a two-hour stop in mid-ecean during whloh a major operation was successfully performed, were among the unusual incidents of the Canadian Pacific Minnedosa's last voyage of this season which concluded at eight o'clock Sunday evening. The big liner had boisterous weather the whole way over and the weather indeed became a very serious factor in a life and death operation -whiob had to be performed on Thomas' Watson, an able seaman, who developed appendicitis. The man was taken in charge by Lieut.-Col. W. P. Peake, R.A.M.C., acting as ship's surgeon, and was operated on by a Toronto surgeon, Dr. D. H. Fau-man, Dundas street* west, who was a passenger returning from a postgraduate course in the Rotunda Hospital, Dublin. Watson had to be kept under the anaesthetic for two hours, the case proving to be a very bad While Commander Latta brought the Minnedosa down to just sufficient fpeed to keep her head on to the big seas, the electricians on the ship had rigged up a 300-eandlepower electric light above the operating table. Thus on a floor level which rose and fell with every big wave and rolled and oceasionaly pitched, Dr. Fauman operated. Lt.-Col. Peake administered the anasthetic with the Minnedosa's two trained nurses in attendance.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.--Sir Robert Borden, Canada's representative on the British delegation to the Washington Limitation of Armament Conference, is quoted in the Herald as declaring Canada i banishment of the submarine as a war weapon. The Herald quotes the former Canadian Premier as saying: "Abolition of the use and construction of submarines would represent a long step in the direction of world betterment.
