Carpets and Oil-Cloths, No. 9 The German emperor spent Sunday with Queen Victoria at Darmstadt. Crowfoot, the famous Chief of the Blackfoot Indians, died on Friday. All the prisoners in jail at Newbery, )lich., escaped on Saturday and are still at large. A cloud~burst struck English, Indi- ana, Saturday morning and much dam- age was done. The bill providing for the closing of saloons in Ireland on Sunday has passed its second reading in the Commons. A cravedigger has been sentenced to one month’s imprisonment in Berlin for cutting the hair from the heads of corp- ses and selling the same to dealers. A cattle disease of extraordinary vir- ulence has made its appearance with fatal effect in the vicinity of Scedwar- zen-Eupen, Prussia. Traffic in cattle has been strictly prohibited with the infected districts. A reign of terror prevails in Santiago de Cuba owing to the daring raids of two bodies of bandits who have been ravaging the country. The outlaws recently engaged in ii conflict with the guards and three of the latter were killed. There was a destructive wind and rain storm in Woodruff county, Ark., early on the morning of April 26th. The village of Yorkville was almost entirely blown away and the disaster is very great. Horses, barns, fences and structures of all kinds were taken up by the wind and carried some distance. On Thursday evening burglars at‘ tempted to enter Patter St Co.’s store .at Ironwood, Mich. A clerk fired a shotgun in the face of the foremost man and the burglars fled. On Friday night the burglar, whose name is found to be John Richards, turned up at the hospi- tal with his face nearly gone. He re- fused to name his accomplices and died on Sunday. A man at Tiflis, in Russia, paid an assassin $75 to kill an enemy, and $90 more when the assassin brought an ear in proof that he had committed the crime. The assissin went to the enemy and obtained $100 for revealing the plot, and produced a. bogus ear. The man who paid to have his enemy assas- inated is now suing the “ swindler ” to recover the money he paid. Sergius Sheritch, Socialist and editor- in-chief of The Volks Zeitung, who has been an exile in America for 22 years, having been banished from Russia ow- ing to his political opposition to the Czar, has been forgiven by the latter and will return to his native land. His large ancestral estates, which were con- fiscated, will be restored to him. He will leave for Russia in a few days with his wife. J. M. Ferguson arrived at Baton Rouge April 26th from the rear of Pointc Coupee parish in a skiff. He states that at a point between Morgan sea and Labelle, about nine miles inland, a family of five uegroes named Watson were swept out of existence. On his Wily he ran across the drowned body of a negro man floating in the swamp. Hundreds of drowned stock were passed, and Mr. Ferguson said the suffering is terrible in the interior. Baton Rouge is full of refugees. The latest and most unique invention is a machine for buttering bread. It is used in connection with a great patent bread-cutter, and is intended for use in prisons, work-houses and other reforma- iory institutions. There is a cylindri- cal shaped brush which is fed with but- ter, and lays a thin layer 'on the bread as it comes from the cutter. The ma- chine can be worked by hand, steam or electricity, and has a capacity ofeutting and buttcring 7530 loaves of bread an hour. The saving of butter and bread and the decrease in the quantity of crumbs is said to be very large. Ixsrirc‘rn Keenanâ€"The annual ‘ meeting of the members of the Fenelon Falls )lechanics' Institute will be held in the reading room on the evening of Monday next, the 5th inst., for the purpose of electing officers for the year and transacting other business. A full attendance is requested. Tun Fias'r Loosâ€"On Friday last the steamer Betiubocaqe came to the Falls from Bobcaygeon with Boyd 8; Co.’s cribs. capstan and horses, which were put through the locks next morn- ing and taken to the mouth of Burnt River. On Wednesday morning a drive of the company's logs. about 30,000 in number, from above Gooderham, reached Caureron Lake in charge of Mr. A. Barnhart, and by the middle of next week, if not earlier, the first of them will be running over the slide. 83 A Tuxâ€"The remark in last week's Guzeuc that the price of ice was rapidly rising was quite true, and the Mondary Times said in its last issue that ice was held in the storehouses at 2 :30 a ton, and to day it is probably worth 83 per ton on the cars at Fenclon Falls. Our villagers who went into the ice business all did exceedingly well, mid were wise to sell at a highly re- niuneraiive figure; but if Mr. Ellis and Messrs McDougall & Brandon could have seen into the future and had held on until now, they would have added several thousands of dollars to their profits. S. A. NOTESâ€"A week of Salvation Army special meetings commenced on Friday last. On the previous Wednes- day Adjt. Mouton, of the Candidate Department, was at the Falls, and ob- tained three applications from soldiers who wished to become officers and de- vote themselves entirely to the work. Capt. Robert Cunningham, late of the Irish constabulary, has led the meetings and been the chief attraction during the week. The following local officers have been appointed : Maggie Ruther- ford, secretary ; Sarah Ellery, sergeant, and Sarah Brokenshire, corporal, of the Visiting Department ; Susie Broken- shire, sergeant, and Lizzie Boice, cor- poral, of the War Cry Department ; Joe LePagc, color sergeant. W At the Grave. A MONUMENT FALLS AND AN EXCITING SCENE ENSUES. Svnacnss, April 25.â€"â€"The funeral of Frank Ilotchkiss, who was killed by a falling elevator at Cortland, was held yesterday afternoon and an exciting scene took place at the grave, into which [be body, coffin, a pull-bearer and part of a monument were dumped. The family monument had been undermined and it fell just as the coffin was about to be lowered. The base went into the grave, followed by the shaft, which crushed the coffin and carried James Robinson with it. It was some time before he eould be taken out and he was badly bruised and cut. One woman fainted and there was much excitement. The body had to be placed in a new collin and the ceremonies had to be post- poned for an hour. _. .__-._L-â€". -....â€"_.._._ A Scott Act Sensation. The judgment of the Supreme Court of New Brunswick. confirming the con- viction of six persons in Fredericton for violation ol'ihe Scott Act, has caused a large sensation. As these are the third oli'ences the parties are sentenced to fine and imprisonment. Among the six are the proprietors of the two leading hotels of the capital, the Barker house and the Queen's, in one or other of which nearly all the members of the Legislature boarded during the session. They are both men ol substance and standing, and a to their case public. attention is specially directed. Both have left Fredericton and were in St. John yesterday, it is said with the View of leaving the coun- try at least for a time. This is the most determined and spirited attempt- that has been made for the complete enforcement of the Scott Act in this province. l)I]CD.
