A despateh from Hamilton says: A shocking crime was committed in the heart of the city on Saturday morning about 11- o’clock, when Frank Truckle shot and almost in- stantly killed his wife at the corner of Park and Market streets. The shooting was witnessed by a num- ber of persons, who chased the mur- derer. After. pursuing him for about a mile he was surrounded at the corner of Park and Duke streets, and. seeing that escape was impossible, turned the revolver that caused his wife’s death on himself. and inflicted a. wound from which he died on Sunday morning. He was hurried‘to the City Hospital in an unconscious state, but recov- ered consciousness during the af- ternoon. Jealousy is the cause of the tragedy.

Turner, Glenora, Ont., says: “I always re- commend Baby’s Own Tablets to my ’friends. I have used them for a long time and find them without an equal. They relieved baby of the feverishness and restlessness while cutting teeth and have made her one of the most healthy babies there is.

Afterwards the was an arduous mimic artillery bat- tle. The airmen tried to co-operate in the manoeuvres. but were pre- vented by the terrible gale.
