Ho has had erimival in- stincts ever since ho was a young boy, the general helied being that hé went astray in the first place as the result of reading cheap paper-backed of murder and robbery Uis aim has apparently been {0 bo gentleman thiel of the Raffles order, Ho was polite as un boy, and growing into manhood was fond of dress, oven to extremes" of fashion. His parents, who are exceptionally fine people, pro- vided him with a musical education, and the homeo life of Dessler was ideal, His mother doled upon him, and could not beliove reports against him, while Nelson idolized her. lt came out that many gifts he made her had been stolen by him in his raids. He was guilty of a series of Sun- day night burglaries during church hours, and nearly every house in Ah rons street, where he lived, received visits, He woyld accompany his parents to church and slip out at the time of the first prayer, hut would be back at church, going home with his parents, in the meantime having committed burglary. He iw also believed to have been the incendiary who set fire to half a dozen barns about the same time of these robberies. Desslor, it was marked, wae always one of the first at the fire, helping to lead out the horses generally playing the hero. When he was. finally caught, the evidence produced was so strong that he got. five years at Kingston, but the fact. that he » was allowed out on parole after sarving only two years, attests to hig ability in the good be- haviour line, He had exceptional powers of ingratiating himself with friends. , Mrs. Dessler is lying in a precarious condition with heart Mr. Desslor was called to his wife's bedside from his work at Hibner's furnitur factory on Saturday. Besides Nelson, they have two other children, a boy and a girl, eleven and fourteen years of age. When Dessler was home a couple of weeks ago, he told his paronts he was on the road representing a number of implemogt houses, which ho named, Fad located in Detroit and other Uni ted States cities He was as spruce as ever, and left the impression that he had reformed completely, and was get ting along well. ; DD.

ACT WILL BE AMENDED. To Wow Men to Vote Away on Business. : Toronto, Feb, 23. There seems every probability that some important amendments to the election act will be proposed by the Ontario govern- ment, some time during the present session, although nothing in the na- ture of an official announcement has yet been given. A provision which is said on good authority to be under consideration will he converned with an arrange- ment whereby sailors, railway men, commercial travelers, and others whose business takes them away from home a great deal, will be enabled to vote, Commercial travelers in particu- lar have already asked for some ar- rangement of this nature. The method which may be adopted will be one whereby for a certain specified period before an election men whose duty makes it impossible to be at home on election day will be enabl- ed to Vote. Their votes will be kept in a ballot box which will siibsequently be used by a deputy-returning officer, without, of course, having been open- ed, and, by=this means, ensuring that no" trace shall be obtainable of the voters. It also understood that certain obligations will be laid upon corpora- tions and large employers of labor, to prevent alleged shipping of voters out of a constituency before an election.

MET AN AWEUL DEATH A POLICEMAN FELL FROM A BRIDGE And Lay on the Ice For Several Hours--At Daylight He Drag- ged Himself For 100 Feet. Fredericton, N.B., Feb. 23.--The ter rible death of John Thibodeau, a mem ber of the police force of Grand Falls has cast a gloom over that town About two o'clock yesterday morning Thibodeau was returning to his home, and to make a short cut, he started to cross the St. John river on the old C.P.R. bridge. This structure is not now in use, and has been partly dis mantled, the ties having been taken out. Thibodeau started to cross the bridge on two-foot cords, made especi ally dangerous by a covering of snow and ice. He had crossed more thar half the distance when he lost his balance, slipped and fell to the ice sixty feet below. He was rendered un conscious by the fall, and remained all night in the snow. Just as it was be coming daylight, he recovered consci ousness and endeavored to drag him self to some place where he could sum mon assistance, at the same time call ing for help. About 8.15 o'clock, man who went to cut ice found Thi bodeau laying in the snow about 10 feet from where he had fallen. Hi had dragged himself that far, and wa: in a critical vondition from exposure having been in the snow for upward ol six hours. He was taken to a hous nearby, and there he gave details o the accident, as well as of his at tempts to secure help after he recov ered consciousness. © Physicians whe were summoned found that he hac one leg. so badly broken that th bones protruded through the flesh, anc that his hip was shattered, while th other-leg was frozen. Several rib were fractured, and part of his body and one arm were frozen. He was con veyed by train to the St. Basile hos pital, but' he became unconscious, and assed away a few hours later. Thibodeau was thirty-six years old, and is survived by a widow and four children.
