Mg m ACCIDENTS. -â€"Un Monday evening a horse belonging to Isaac Warner of Lenkdale was being driven near Sandy Hook when a nut- came off the buggy and the rig was tipped over, 8m: s'ling the top. There were three ladies in the buggy and none of them were seriously hurt, prob- ably owing tu the fact that the horses did not run away. Another accident, a. little more disastrous. happened on 6th conces- ssion of Scott on Tuesday afternoon. Wm. Usher, accompanied by a lady, was driv- ing along when his horse wok fright at R. Bingham who was wheeling a barrow full of corn. The a; ring almft. became de etch-ed :inl M r Usher was pulled out of the rig. The horse got away and ran as far as Mr. Hardy’s gale.

Terrible Experience of the Steamer Alberta‘on Lake Superior. \Vinnipee. Sept. 2S.â€"Tra.vellers who arrived in the city from the e'mst report that on the last trip up:the steamer A]- berta. encountered a wolent gale when in the middle of Lake Superior. After struggling against the raging wind and high sea for several hours, the ship put about and ran hack one hundred and fifty miles to Michipicoten Island. Huge waves washed over the ship.:and the furniture and crockery were knock- edabout indiscriminately. Befere put- ting back one of the rudder ChJillS broke, and the big steamer rolled help- lessly in the trough of the sea. untili repairs were made. At this time the lifeboats were got. in readiness in the event of something more serious happen- ing, but ‘he pas=engers were no aware urphy. from several old residents of he town, and afterwards drove out to the place. This time she arrived .in town on Wednesday evening remain- ing until Friday evening, coming from thé east and departing in the some direction. She stopped at the Benson ,house, registering as Mrs. Otto, of 1Grand Rapids, Mich. While here, according to her own statement she visited the Murphy’s in goal and offered them money individually in order to elicit information, but they declined to do so, remaining as silent as oysters. The lady also visited the Murphy home and called upon smile of the people in Mount Horcb locality, and made it» quite interesting for them. Some of the parties visited wanted to know if she was going to have any of them arrested, believing the strange woman to be a detective from the manner in which she pumped them. The Murphys state that the woman is a cousin of their’s, being a daughter of their father’s brotherâ€"-Dennis Murphy, who resided in Lindsay some 40 years ago. From dma‘gatliered Denny was twice married. He left‘ the western country and his wife and four children. marrying a. second and wealthy woman in the States, who dying years later, Denny mysterious- ly disappeared, and his brother Jeremiah went over to the other side to investigate the matter. There is undoubtedly valuable property some- where for some of the Murphys and some day ere long an interesting law suit may come to the surface. This strange woman with a mysterious missionâ€"Kate Murphy, alias Mrs. Farrelly, alias Mrs. Otto, now mar- ried to some man in good position, could unfold an interesting chapter if she only would. The two most critical times in a woman’s life are the times which make the girl a woman, and the woman a mother. At these times Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is of incalculable value. It strengthens and invigorates the organs distinctly feminine, promotes regularity of the functions, allays irritation and inflam- mation, checks unnatural, exhausting drains. and puts the whole delicate organism into perfect condition. Almost all the ills of womankiml are traceable to some form of what ls known as “female complaint.” There are not three cases in.a hundred of woman’s peculiar diseaSes that Dr. l‘ierce’s Favorite Prescription will not Cure. Ste Re-appears on the Scene and Again Vanishes. In connection with the arrest of the _ Murphy family on.) the charge of , counterfeiting the mysterious visit of a. strange woman to- the homestead in , Manvers on the 11th day of July last , came to light, and proved} puzzle to , the police and others as well. As _ stated in THE WATCHMAN before she , was a. womanly woman, large in stature, well dressed and passibly good looking. This time she honored THE WATCHMAN with a call, and indig- nantly denied that she was what the Ottawa detective thought she possibly might be, either a temale crook or a female detective. She also denied the allegation (which had never been made) that she furnished the Murphys with the dies wherewnth‘ to make counterfeit coin: and added that she was no- connection of the family, but was an American lady of good social ed. In regard to her former and present visit however she was rather reticent and not very definite as to details about herself or her particular business, but tendered the information ithat she had a missionâ€"that she was doing a little detective work on behalf of some parties who were heirs to some property which Mr. Jeremiah Murphy and family were believed to be trying to secure. The woman has undoubted- iy a mission, and is decidedly mysteri- Ous in her manner and method of obtaining information. On her first visit she put up at the SiIfison house giving her name as Mrs. Farrelly, but stating no place of residence. She .made enquires about Mr. J erimiah position and very respectably connect-i THAT MYSTERIOUS WOMAN. 097cc and Residence Corner of Lindsay and t S‘ J‘ ' 3; mil 8!: acts. ‘ ' “ ' ' a 86 KENT STREET. ”7 f 'fiufié' d!
