KISSED run aurora .- At about 3.30 Mayor wmon and Chief of Police Williams arrived at the corner of Dundas and Lyle-ate. They came up Elizabeth-st. from Queen‘s-ave. Chief Williams remained at the corner of Lylev st. and Mayor Wilson drove to the corner of Adelaide-st, where the crowd was the greatest. His arrival was greeted ‘ with groans and hisses. Standing up in the buggy he attempted to speak to the-crowd. . He was greatly agitated, and it was several minutes before he succeeded in getting ahearing. He said he had been elected to do his duty and he would do it. They were doing harm to the cause of the strikers. “These men shall have Justice, and I will help you get it for them," he said. “I have always been your friendâ€"" Cries of “No, you haven’t!” “Just at election time!"

Lindsay ; The Watchman-Waldo THURSDAY, JULY 13th, 1399 ll nior In LONDON The Structure Trouble Reached a Climax on Saturday MOBS ATTACK THE CARSâ€"REVOLVERS WERE DRAWN~THE RIO'I~ ACT READ THREE TIMESâ€"THE MlLl‘ TARY CALLED OUT An accute stage of the street railway strike at Lond on, Ont._. was reached Monday afternoon. At noon Saturday it was rumored around the city that the nonâ€"union em- ploves of the company were dissatisfied with their wages. and would run their cars into the barns at 2 o‘clock. In conse- quence of this report, a crowd of from 500 to 1000 people gathered at the corner of Dundas and Lyle-sts. to watch develop- ments. Asouad of police was on hand, and these, aided by the company’s special detectives. kept the crowd in motion and there was no disturbance of any sort. At 2.30 the cars started to run into the barns, and it was evident to the crowd of on- lookers that the “scabs" had gone on .strike. Each car as it rounded the corner and made for the barns was loudly cheer- ed. CONDL' . 'l'OR DRE‘V A REVOLVER. stones and bricks shattered the cars. TOLD 'ro DISPERSE Ald. Parnell and Joseph T. Marks also addressed the crowd, and entreated them to disperse and commit no further dam- age. The crowd paid little or no attention to these entreaties,‘ and seemed only too anxious to continue the destruction of the company’s property. Later on in the afternoon the crowd began to thin out and the company seized the opportunity to run the rest of the cars in. AGAIN RIOT REIGNED Several cars reached the barns safely, but the crowd began to swell and riot soon reigned again, and each car was greeted with a volley of stones and eggs. About this time No. ‘36 came along at a rapid rate. When it reached Adelaide-st. the stones and eggs started to fly from all directions. When it drew near Lyle-st. missiles came so thick and fast that the motorman left his post and cowered down under the seats. He did not reverse the motor. and a switch taming into the barns was closed. The car shot past and went east in the direction of the fair grounds. On arriving at the loop the motormen and conductor jumped from the car and ran through the fair grounds and escaped. DERAILED THE (7 AR. A portion of the crowd who followed it plugged the tracks, turned on the power, and ran the car off the track. The wheels cut so deep that they were embedded in the earth up to the axles. Every pane of glass was soon shattered and the furnish- ings were demolished. Somebody started to make a fire in the centre of the car with a pile of the broken seats. Detective Rider and Sergt. Jenkins putin an appear- ance, procured water and put the fire out. MOTORMANB‘ NOSE AND RIBS BROKEN. The next car to arrive in the East End was No. 86 which also overran the switch for a short distance. It was likewise bombarded with eggs and stones. Motor- man Rigney was struck with several missiles. His nose and two or three of his ribs were broken and his check was cut open and he suilered several scalp wounds. He was taken into the car barns, where Dr. Drake, who was called in, dressed his wounds. Rigney is now in the hospital. (UNDUCTUR FIRED THREE SHOTS. Conductor Crittle of the same car took refuge under a seat and, pulling a revolver, tired three shots at random. The police took his weapon from him. In the mean- time Motorman Nielson and Conductor Juke, two of the strikers, volunteered to run the car into the barn. Juke climbed on the roof and held the trolley pole until the car reached the barn. Both men were loudly cheered. (‘RI‘I’W DESERTEI) THE CAR. The next car to arrive from uptown was No. 80. It stopped on Dundas st., midway between Lyle and Adelaide. The windows were broken and the crew deserted the car under police protection. Close on its heels came car No. 82 at such terrific speed that the motorman, in his excited- con- dition, lost control of the brakes. His car crashed into No. 80, smashing the fender and staving in the vestibule on 82, and shattering every window. No. 84, the last car to put in an appearance, nearly repeat- ed the error of No. 82, pulling up within a few feet of the latter. The three cars, Nos. 80, 82 and 84, were stalled in the middle of the block and the police under- took to run them into the barn. CARS WERE TARGETS. The conductors and motormen now started to desert their cars at the corner of Richmond and Dundas streets, and at 7 o'clock six cars were lined up on Dundas street near Richmond, and there the crowd gathered, and the cars, up to about mid- night, were targets fur a continuous show- But a‘few minutes later. when it was er of bricks, stones and other missiles. discovered that there had been a mis. At about 9 30 p.m. Mavor Wilson, after understanding, and the cars started to many threats, read the Riot Act twice at run out again. the cheers were turned to the corner of Dundas and Richmond, but groans and hisses, but no attempt was the mob refused to disperse, and the police made to ctstruct or detain the cars, until were powerless in their efforts to control Conductor Fitzsimmons, as his car round- ed the corner of Dundas. drew a revolver and levelled it at the jeering mob. This action so incensed the mob that before he had time to make any use of the weapon he was lying a writhing heap upon the road, his head a mas of blood, the result of a dozen or so well-aimed stones. The trouble might have ended here had not the company's “specials" and the non union employee foolishly tried to intimi- date the mob with pistols, one of the men going as far as to fire three shots, which fortunately were harmless into the crowd. This action so infuriated the sympathizers them. 4 REGULARS CALLED our. At about 1 a.m., after most of the crowd had dispersed, Mayor Wilson sent a request to Wolsclev barracks for a company of soldiers. Thirty-two men, under command of Col. Buchan, Major Denison, Lieut. Laybcrn and Lieut. Burham marched with fixed bayonets down to the corner of Dun- das and Richmond streets. Mayor Wilson placed himself at the head of the militia. Sheriff Cameron, who had been sent for, read the Riot Act for the third time. The police with drawn batons cleared the streets of. the few hundred boys and that the police were powerless and the youths who remained and without further 0 mnrrra‘nnso cancer).

Moore of Peterboro, was drowned in Stoney lake on Thursday last. while crossing from Eagle Mount to Boschluk. The lake was very rough at the time, and as the canoe was ballasted with stone, it filled and sank immediately. The body washed ashore near Boschlnk. Thomas Williams, a bricklaycr's laborer, fell from a derrick in front of the Gowan’s- Kent building, Toronto, a distance of 70 feet, Monday morning, causing his death a few hours later. Both hips and the right shoulder were dislocated, his spine injured and his head badly battered. He was 41 years of age, and married only four months ago. â€"Frlday night on the farm of Wm. Lansley. lot No. 10, on the fifth con- cession, East Gwillimbury, Bert Fletcher was pulling his gun through the fence by the muzzle. The trigger caught in the fence, and the gun went off, and tore off the lower portion of his right hand. ' The shot passed onward and struck his com panlon, Bert Green, in both legs, scatter' ing the shot above and below the knees. A doctor succeeded in getting only foul‘ or five of the shot .out, and considers both cases serious. -â€"'.:lenator Sanford, the well-known clothing manufacturer of Hamilton, was drowned near his island at Windermere.

Dan McKenzie was picked up with both of his legs broken and his hip smashed terribly. _He was also hurt internally. Everything possible was done for him. but he died about 11 p.m. , The next seriously hurt was J as.

Kenneth McLeod was hurt about the head and rendered unconscious, but it is net thought that he is fatally injured. With the exception of Mr. Johnston, who is badly hurt, none of the others sustained serious injuries. There werea couple of broken arms and wrists, but cuts and bruises comprised the remainder of the injuries. FOR THE POULTRY YARD. Three feeding Contrivancea the Introâ€" duction of “’hlch Is Recom- mended by Experts. No doubt some of the readers have ex- perienced difficulty in raising chicks in the same yard with he’ns, which resulted in the chicks being crowded out at meal- times and being peeked by the hens. In the illustration No. 1 is shown a box into which the chicks can go at any time to food, and the bone cannot get at them at all. The box is made of l6-foot board, 12 inches wide, the board being cut into four pieces. each piece four feet long, and nailed together. The box has no bottom, but the top is covered with lath, the sides having-holes that admit the chicks and exclude the hens. By having the box bottomless it may be moved from place to place, thus avoiding filth. A cheap coop for a hen and a brood of young chicks may be made of an ordin- ary large cheese box, as shown in No. 2. If the box is not deep enough, two of them may befastoned together. It is only intended for use during the first few days of the chicks. as the box would not an- swer for the heir during any length of time. the room being too restricted. It serves Well for summer use, as it- is cool and can be cleaned or moved easily. Simply mark the box all around into strips about two inches wide and cut out each alternate strip. The object of the contrlvancc is to enable one to prepare a coop in a short time and almost at no cost. As the chicks will be removed after they are large enough to run about, the mop may then be used for the next young brood. More properly No. :5 may be termed a cover for the food dish, or it may be made larger for confining u hen. the chicks to run in and out. Simply attach a handle to an old basket or a box of any holes of a make entrance diameter just suilicicnt to permit young kind and chicks to run in and put. The bottom of the basket or box should first be removed. The object is that. when feeding young chicks, their food may be so covered as to protect it from larger chicks or fowls. while the chicks can help themselves un- molested. l‘o rear of Uompe tltion. No one need fear an overproduction of really good dairy products. Such a thing is possible, but there is such a small proportion of the men engaged in dairy work that are willing to take the pains always to produce what is really excellent that the supply of the [best butter and the richest, purest milk which keeps sweet a long time will always be far less than the demand, and will consequently always bring a good price. The producer of these does not have to exchange them for high priced goods nor hawk them about the streets. He can have his regu- lar customers and a contract price, for all he can produceâ€"Journal of Agricul- ture. â€"'â€"-â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€" ‘ Science of C‘heeumaking. : There are many branches of science that are intricate and very difficult to acquire and understand, and if there is one more difficult than another the man- ufacture of cheese seems to be' that one.
