Dogs vs. Sheep. .__.. Meeting Mr. John A. Ellis last Tues- day we asked hitn whether he had any news, and he said that two of his sheep, worth at least 37, had been killed the previous morning by two dogsâ€"one a big;r collie and the other a little black fellowâ€"belonging to a near neighbor. How many of the fleeey innocents the murderous canines would have deprived of'life cannot be told; but. fortunately, Mrs. Ellis saw them when they had kill- ed one cwe and mangled another so bad- ly that it died soon afterwards. Dogs are the great obstacle in the way of suc- ceszul sheep raising, and war ought to be declared against the tens of thou- sands of worthless curs that infest both town and country, and are a far greater nuisance than the “poor man’s cow," which many persons would practically prevent him from kcepin-v. though itas sists materially in supporting his fam- ily. If we had the power, we would impose a tax of at least five dollars upon every dog and see that it was collected. too; which would have the effect of greatly reducing the number kept. 'l‘beir quarrelsome disposition and pe~ I culiar habits make dogs very objection- able within Corporations; but their liaâ€" bility to the vice of sheep killing is the greatest charge against them. We should very much like to see the worth less ones among themâ€"which includes at least ninety per cent.â€"â€"done away with in the Falls; but nothinLr but a good stiff tax ora case or two of hydro- thc more dogs lte keeps; but, although that is not. entirely true. it is certain that many a man who finds it difficult to ” make both ends meet,” keeps :1 mon- tzrel that cats the table scraps which, if fed with some grain to a few hens, would be worth a week’s wages to him every year in eggs. Mr. Ellis will probably never be paid for his sheep, as the own- er of the dogs that killed thetn is a poor man whom he would be loath to sue, and the dog tax out of which such losses- used to be met was abolished in the township of Fettelon. * "Fan heath." On Wednesday of last week Mr. Ilen- ry Puley of Fenelon Falls received a telegram stating that his elder brother. Walter, whose home is at Little Britain, had been killed by an accident, and left for that village as soon as possible. The Gazette was printed on Thursday afternoon, and at that time we were not in possession of any particulars, which we obtained from Mr. Puley on his re- turn. On Monday afternoon Mr. Wal- tcr I’uley was engaged raisingr a barn on Mr. John Short's farm about two 4 miles north of Oakwood. and about 5 o’clock a rafter that was being hoisted t to the roof slipped and fell ttpon him, lsmashing one of his legs so badly that i no fewer than thirteen pieeeeol' bone l were extracted by the doctors front Oak wood and Little Britain, who were in attendance upon hitn as soon as pflsSllliC After the broken limb had been put in splints and build-med and the patient Ihad been made a4 cantor-table as pOS~ sib'e, he was circl’ulty driven home, and for a while :tppetrod to be doing 3 well; but. some time doting 'f‘umlnj; he took a turn for the worse and died about 9 o'clock at night.
