Judge Barksdale pre- sided, - Lf ek The trial promises to eclipse in in- terest and sensation the McCue and Strother-Bywaters cases in Cul- pepper. It will aguin put to test the "unwritten law." Judge Loving, nrmied with a double shot n, instantly Killed young Estes, while he was unloading a car of fertilizer in Oak Ridge on April 2nd. The shooting was the se- quel to the buggy ride taken on the evening prior to the homicide, by young Estes with Miss Elizabeth Lov- ng, the ninetéen-year-old daughter of Duis Loving. The wirl when brought home been drinking, it. is al- leged that her escort had maltreated her. Acting under the impalse that his daughter had been drugged and assaulted, Judge Loving immediately went in search of Young Estes. After the shooting he said. "I shot to kill. Every drop of blood in my body called for vengeance. I wonld have gone a hundred miles to kill him." Backed by the millions of Thomas Ryan, of whose Virginia estate he had bern overseer for a number of years] and with powerful political influence, every device known to the legal fra- ternity will be utilized in the efforts of the counsel for the defence to acquit Judge Loving. The plea of the defence will be emo- tional insanity and the "unwritten law." The ives of young Estes, whbse familé conneptions extend to the governor of this state, wil exert every cffort to clear the memory the dead man from any stain of wrong doing. EXFOSED A BAD PICTURE. Fined Even Though Church House Imported It, Toronto, June 25.--John P. Me- Kenna, a Yonge street book seller, was fined $1 and costs by the police magisteate, this merping, for expos- ing, in his shop window, a picture of a bathing girl in abbreviated = cos- tume. MeKemna said the card was an "art ;pioture," an opinion with which the magistrate scavcely agreed. In- sprctor Archibald stated that many improper card pictures were being shown in stores around the city and that steps' would be taken to punish offenders. MeKeyma offered as an ex- tenunting cirenmstance the fact that the company which imported the pic- tures complained of is affiliated with a church organization, but that bore no weight with the dourt. SUFFERED SEVERE LOSSES By a Fire in Springfield, Ont., Tuesday. nit, June 25.--The wily MCR. losses on St. Thomas, Inge of inglield, om the enst of suffered severe through fires, this morning, one side of the main street being destroyed by the flames, Chambers' departmental antl burdware store, Ferrv's barber shop and residence, Lamb's general store, Postmaster Chancler's house, store and barn, were demolished bee fore the fire burned itself cut. The total loss is $30,000. The origin of the fire is not known. One man was caught under falling timbers, but was extricated without injuries.

Charles Powell, penter, Raglan Road, had the Tislor tape to om burn his hand the other day. In the course of his labour, he had to fill a Goal oil burner, In so doing he spill- ed some of the oil over his hand and on lighting the burner accidently ignited the hand as well. Resides this, some shavings also caught fire 'so that there was efcitement galore for a few moments. The fire was stamped out in due time but not before Mr. Powell had stfiered severe burns. Take Narrow View. At - a largely attended convention of - the liberal association - of the county of Grenville, Dr. W. C. Prown, dentist, of Prescott, was clocted pre sidest, over Albert Whitney, former president of 'the association, and brother of the premier of Ontario. Mr. Whitney deprecated attacks made on himself becanse of the relationship, saying : "My brother dors not want my help, would not take it, and does not need it." The vote was: Brown, 241; Whitney, 232. ---- Was In Hard Luck. Early this morning, several people on Princess street, were accosted by a comparatively young man, who told a nardluck story, and who offered for , @& small pocket comb, which looked much the we of wear. The man looked in every 'respect, the part a vagrant, but claimed to have had a streak of bad luck. He was given assistance by some pedestrians who were touched by his appeal, and a opened their purse strings for im. A Fine Number. The well-printed Canadian Freeman sents a fine issue this week, giv- ing a complete report of the celebra- tion of the diamond jubilee of Sister Theresa, who has been a teacher in Rideau street convent, Ottawa, for over sixty years. It also gives a fine porirait of the above sister, Hon. Mr. Lemieux, postmaster-general, Senator Coffey and others. Altogether the Freeman is a credit, not only to its publisher, but to the people of that faith, which it bas faithfully repre- sented for twenty-five years in Can- ada. 0'Kill Street Sewer Again. The O'Kill street sewer is agpin the | subject of protest. The contract to lay the extension pipe was let late in the winter, but the contractor Las not yet been able, to go ahead with the work fo any extent. A beginning was made at the outlet, and the sewage seems to have been diverted. some what and to flow towards the boat houses at the west end of the bay. Owners are protesting, and the board of works is asked to have the exten- sion' work hurried on. The O'Kill street sewer. has been -too long the subject of discussion. Barnes Came Back. George Bames, the immigrant who was was sent to Brockville," on his way to Montreal, has arrived back in the city, and the police again have him on their hands. It will be remem- bered that the magistrate ordered him sent on, when he appeared in the police court on Saturday, on a charge of vagrancy. He was sent on, but Barnes evidently has a warm spot in his heart for the Limestone City. He reached the city yesterday evening, and as he had no place to stay over night, he went to the police station for shelter, where he will remain until his case his disposed of. -------- Closing Exercises.

Smith, aged twenty:seven years, fell to the floor, and fractured his skull. He died as be was being admitted to Grace hospital. V. B. Whipple, one of the best known printers in this part of the country, died, suddenly, at his desk, at Ham- ilton, Ont., at noon. He was in his fifty-second year. Bright's disease was the cause of death. Louis Heyd has issued a writ against W. T. R. Preston, formerly dominion immigration agent, at Lon- don, for $343, which he claims is due him for services in an action entered by the latter against the Journal Publishing company, of Ottawa. Jossph Henry Sheldon, who resides at Hurdman"s Bridge, was walking home, on the C.P.R. tracks, on Mon- lay night, in a muddled condition from liquor. He was found badly | mutilated and dead on the Uttawa cast track in the early hours of the morning. The Dominion lron and Steel com- pany closed its year, wiping out pre- vious deficits with a profit of $315. 711.41, The price paid for coal over which thére is a dispute with the Dominion Coal company, has reached $310,713.72. This is held as a special account oper which there is a dispute. At Port Hope, Ont., James Baxter, a weaver, aged sixty-four years old, committed suicide, on Monday even- ing. by drinking carbolic acid. Dr. A. G. Dickson was summoned and was present when death came. Ili-health is said to have been the cause of the act. The aggregate earnings from Novem- ber to the end of February, of the Do- minion Iron and Steel company, fell off about $260,000, as compared with the average of the preceding months of 1906. This was due wholly to the disturbance and partial stoppage oi operations by the interruptions in the coal supply. INCIDENTS OF THE DAY. Newsy Paragraphs Picked Up By Reporters on Their Rounds.
