Complaints were made by the young ladies who attended the ball of the Paul 8. Jones Association, at Rutherlord Hall, in Stanton street. on Monday night, that they were robbed of their purses. An inves- tigation was made by the members of the club. and their suspicions fell upon an elegantly attired young man. who gave his name as John H. Hood. a jewellery clerk, residing in Brooklyn. He was unknown to them, and when questioned said that he was present on the invitation of Robert. D. Cassy. the President of the club. Casey disclaimed an acquaintance with the young man. an a sharp watch was kept upon him. Half an hour after the stranger was seen waliaing with Selena Germer, the daughter of Grocer J eseph Gernier, of No. 112 Willett street.

The party soon struck e trail and tracked the alligator to his den. A hole in the sandy bank indicated the location, and a few minutes' digging revealed the Objrofi of the search. Escape from the den to the lake having been cut 01!, the alligator rushed up and down its bed uttering wicked growls, lashing the mud, and scattering the water in all directions. Pieces of timber and fence rails were pushed into its month only to be Eerushed and mapped 05 by its ponderous ‘jaws. A rope an chain. made intoa lasso. was thrown over the alligator’s head. Then he was.drawn to the bank. With gun in hand. the young lady stood within a few feet of the alligator, which was growling.‘ struggling and slashing its tail. When the opportunity presented itself she fired both barrels in rapid succession. The alligator gave several tremendous lurohes, and then expired. Both shots had entered one o! the few penetrable places at the base of the jaw. The alligator measured a fraction over ten feet in length. The hide is in possession of Miss Steels.

The Lochport Journal says : Ameeting was recently'hsld at O-iiton for considering the International Park scheme. at which Sir Alexander Campbell. Minister of Justice of the Dominion Gov- ernment. was present, and a scheme discussed which seems feasible. It was assumed that neither the Government of the Dominion nor that of Ontario would ‘ at present undertake the establishment of an international park, and the next best thing would be to renew a scheme advanced about a year ago. On the Canadian side of the river the Government owns a strip of land along the river bank suflicient for a good road. which must always be kept Open. The project of a year ago was the incorporation of a private company under the protection and control of the Ontario Government. To this company the Government was to give the land around the Falls, and under Government control it should be empowered to procure addi- tional land for a park, that the company should keep this park 'and the view of the Falls always free tothe public. but that they should have the right to improve it wit tramways, place hotels and other attractions in it, subject to the right of the Government to regulate the charges to he made therefor. It is also understood that the park should be subject to a tax (or municipal purposes. Sir Alex. Campbell, Sir Alex. Gait, Sir Wm.Howland. the Hon. Wm. McMaeter, the Hon. George W.
