A dcspatch from Port Huron By means of two false teeth it was Friday afternoon that Browning, a carpenter man who was butchered on Tuesday evening of last week in the little Rattle Run Methodist Church in- Columbus Township. With part of the mystery which has onshr'orrdcd the brutal crime thus cleared, the supervisors of St. Clair County immediatelyoffercda reward of $500 for the arrest of Rev. John H. Carmichael of Adair, pastor of the little church, and the man who was at first supposed to have been killed, dismembered and then burned in the church stoves, thus becomes the alleged murder- er. He' is a man over 6 feet tall, weighing more than 200 pounds. Strcnuous efforts to discover some motive for the destruction of the carpenter by the minister were fruitless. Rumors that Carmichael had been seen crossing the St. Clair River into Canada could not be cor~ MAGISTRATE AND JAILER. _ Take Part in a Free Fight at Ste. Aga the, Que. A despatch from Montreal says: 'A sensational story is reported here from St. Agathe, a small town in the Laurentians, a short distance north of this city. While the trial of a man named Roberts was in progress Jailer Loiscau entered and ordered several witnesses to rcfusc to give evidence. The presiding Magistrate ordered a policeman to but he refused. The Magistrate then tried to make the arrest, but a free fight follow~ ed. A Judge then condemned the jailer for contempt of court, and ordered' Bailiff Garceau ‘to take charge of the jailer. Another fight followed in which the. jailer came out best. The Magistrate has de- clared that he will resign unless the jailer is dismissed. . >1 wnsrsnrv 1.11118." c. P. 11. Thirty Million Dollars Required ' This Year. A despatch from Winnipeg says: Thirty million dollars was mention- ed on Thursday at the local ofiices of the Canadian Pacific as the sum which Second Vice- President Why te will ask from the treasury of the company to be expended on west- ern lines during the season 0f 1909. Mr. Whyte will leave for. the east 011 Friday and will spend the following week in Montreal. He will be accompanied by the chief engineer for western lines, J. E.

A statement by Mrs. Carmichael, that hcr' hus- band’s sister is an inmate of an in- sane asylum in \Vest Virginia, may exp lain some of tho horrible fea- t-r'rrpes of the crime, if the authori- ties’ suspicious about Rev. Mr. Carmichael are borne out. Mrs. Carmichael also Said that her husband was moody. and restless the night before he disappeared, and appar ently brooding over some- thing.

During dithnc service on Sunday an ancient church near Sion suddenly collapsed, burying the worshippers in the ruins. Prac- tically all the members of tho con- gregation were killed or injured. The wildest panic prevailed, those who escaped rushing through the field shouting that an earthquake had overtaken the village. Other villagers joined in the outcry and were with difiiculty calmed After an hour’ s exertion, the fire com~ pany of the place extricated 40 loorpses, but it is believed that there is still a number under the timbers. Sixty persons were badly injured The collapse of the church was caused by the time- -'worn pillars in the underground crypt giving away. ~1râ€"â€"â€"â€"â€" Fifteen persons lost their lives in floods in Costa Rica. lllllllllflif MPtthE 1118811111 It 1s Feared They Have Been Drowned in Hudson’s Bay.

M11111 UUAKES YET Tl] UlllllT Likely to DWI‘ Two Ye...S Says Observatory Director A despatch from Rome says. The people of Messina mourn more than anything else the destruction of their cathedral, the glory of Messina, which had been famous for centuries, defying all former earthquakes, with its beautiful cyclopic monolith column and glorious Norman, Angcvin and Aragonese tombs of kings of Italy. All are ruined. The condition of the Calabarse Provinces is most desolate. They arc an immense silent necropolis, stretching from the Ionian to the Ty ribonian Sea. Father Alfari, director of the Florence Obser1atory, is of the opinion that (arthquakes will con- tinue two 01' three years, being violent at the beginning and gradu- ally decreasing. During tl 1e follow- ing three months shocks iwill be felt at Messina and Regg If of frequent occurrence they 0will bc slight, if infrequent they will be 1iolent. Hence Father Alfari warns the’ rescuers at Messina and Reggie to “be cautious. RESCUED ALIVE FROM RUINS. Earthquakes continue at M-essina. Most of the shocks are slight, but several have been rather violent, causing the collapse of several houses that remained standing af- ter the shock of Dec. 28 Ten persons were rescued alive from the ruins on Tuesday. S01di-_ crs are burying the bodies found on the surface of the ruins. Two thousand were entrenched in deep ditches on Wednesday. Food is plentiful. The evacuation of Mes- sina is being hastened. Survivors are arriving at Naples 0n every train. Five hundred arrived at Rome on Tuesday. A majority of them were forwarded to M lan and Genoa. Gen. Mazza, who is in supreme command in the earthquake area, has telegraphed to Premier Gio~ letta that the securities of the Banca. di Italia, the Banca Com- merciale, the Navigazione Gener- ale Italana and the Societa Vel- j oce, have been recovered from the ruins of the buildings occupied by those concerns.

A special session of the Chamber of Deputies, called to adopt mea- sures for the alleviation of the si- tuation in Calabria and Messina, met on Friday night. Over 400 members were present and the gal- leries were crowded with visitors. The scene was a most solemn and pathetic one. Signor Macora, pre- sident of the Chamber, made a speech commemorating those who lost their lives through the earth- quake, to which the Deputies lis- tened, standing in religious silence. Signor Macora was often 1nte11up~ ted by his o11n and the Deputies’ Bobs and weeping, especially the Sicilian and \Calabrian Deputies, all of whom had lost relatives and friends in the disaster. He spoke feclingly of the tributes of sym- pathy shown by the entire 1vor,ld and praised the King and Queen for being among the first to go to the stricken districts. He express- led gratitude for the help given by, the zDvessels of the foreign navies, the men of which performed works of heroism, and had united with Italian soldiers and sailor's t0 aid suffcr'ing humanity. He concluded his speech by declaring that the ruined cities would rise again. The only time the silence was broken in the course of the speech was, when Signor Macora referred to the King and Queen and the for c- ign 11 arships, at which the Deputies cheered Premier Giolitti presented a p1 o- ect of law regulating the situation. He thanked all the nations of the world for aid they had given. He also dccla red that Reggio and Mes- sina would be rebuilt. ‘ Slight earthquakes continue. The worst have occurred at Reg ggio, where several damaged buildings collapsed. important concern in the city an- ticipate a very busy season, and rcxpect to have their shops run- ning to the fullest capacity in a fcw weeks.
