She took one srick out, and the flames ignited her clothing. The body of the unfortunate woman was found lying beside the fence in yard short- ly after three o ’clock in the afternoon by her son and his wife, who live near by, and had gone over to help the old people. The left side of the corpse was badly burned, and the left ear almost burned off. The grass close by was scorched which shows that she had been rolling about to extinguish the flames. â€"While digging a cellar under a house in Bridgenorth a man named Gray un- earthed $220 in American gofd. The money was lost by the occupant of' the house twenty years ago, and Gray was arrested on suspicion of having stolen it. but was acquitted. â€"-An extremely sad double drowning occurred at the Village of Tecumseh, east of Windsor, Ont., on Friday evening, the victims being Mrs. Geo. Stanley and her infant daughter Gladys. The little one had managed to crawl out cf the house while the mother was occupied in some of her household duties. A deep cistern filled with water a few feet away stood uncovered, and the first warning of danger the mother had was when she heard aloud splash. She rushed out to find her baby daughter in a death struggle between the narrow walls of the" cistern. Mrs. Reynolds was slate at the time, but without a moment’s hesitation she plung- ed into the deep water to rescue her little one. The walls were steep and slippery, and while Mrs. Reynolds might possibly have saved herself she found it impossible to do so without relinquishing hold of her child. No one came in re- sponse to her screams for help. and in a few minutes the mother gave up the an- equal struggle, and with the child in her arms sank quickly to the bottom, where the two bodies were fcund an hour later by the husband and father, locked in a death embrace. â€"The Examiner says it is reported in Barrie that a friend of Sanford, the Coun- ty Treasurer who took French leave of his fri ends in Simcoe a few years ago, a defaulter to the extent of $65,000, has re- ceived word from the fugitive, who is in Southern Mexico. Sanford states that he has a controlling interest in a large and rich silver mine,“not many hundred miles from San Miguel,” and is doing famously. “I want in as a third-rate clerk.” he writes.“but soon get the hang of the business, and was able to give the directors pointers which made a boom for the mine, and gave me a pull. I’ve saved and invested to good account.” Sanford refers lightly, almost jocularly, to his Barrie exploitations, declaring he never had a dishonest motive in anything so had undertaken, but felt he would one day be able to straighten up his afi'drs and repay the county the money he borrowed. “And I may yet do that same thing,” he adds, "Wouldn’t it surprise the folks if I should reappear on the scene and get even with the world to the last dollar?” The fugitive says his identity is completely hidden in his new home, where he lives under an assumed name, and with his features so altered by a surgical operation that his best friend could not possibly recognise him. â€"The Orillia Paket says: Mr. George Curran leaves to-day on his second trip to the lKlondike. Helgoes in company with Mr. J.W.Willson, Crown Timber Agent. who has been down east since the middle of J uiy, and spent a week in Uriilia lately as Mr. Curran’s guest. Mr. Curran is owner or part owner in over twenty claims, which it is his intention to operate the‘coming winter; One of these claimsâ€"a hydraulic “proposition” â€"is said to be the best in the Klondike country, and is predicted by Mr. Tyrrell, formerly Government mining engineer, to yield at 'leat a million dollars. Mr. Curran has no definite idea when he shall return; but probably not for at least two years. It is to be hOped that when he does come. he will bring a load of wealth,and spend the remaining years of his life in helping the good work on building and developing Orillia. Mr. Curran is in no way daunted by the prospect of so long a stay in the dreaded Klonkike, which he says is in no sense the terrible country which seme ‘people, anxious to 'make heroes of themselves, would have the world believe. â€"' â€"vv.“â€"" Of Mr. 37. R. Campbell, 2nd con. of Thorah, a couple of weeks ago whlch might have resulted in the death of Mrs. Campbell. In cleaning out an old cup- board, Mrs. Campbell came across a small package of what she' supposed was seeds but was, in fact, gunpowder; she lifted the lid of the kitchen stove and threw the package in, when an explosion followed resulting in the total destruction of the stove and smashing the glass in the room besides severely burning the head, face and anus of Mrs. Campbell. Medical aid was at hand and her injuries attended to. News of the Week Pills, arepsrter of the Tribune was sent to investigate the case. It appears that Mrsfil‘oxtater's illness dates from the birth of a child on Feb. 5, 1899, when the attend- ing phv-icians found it necessary to ad- minister cloroform. The shock was greater than she could stand and the re- sult was partial paralysis. during which her life was despaired of. Mrs. Doxtater gives the particulars as followszâ€"“Prcv- ious t3 the birth of my child I had enjoy- ed vcry good health, but following this my health gave way entirely. I was in bed for over a month, and had two doctors attending me. I was so weak that I could not turn myself in bed and had to be moved like a child. The little nourish- ment I took had to be administered by my friends. During this time I suffered great pain especially in the hip joints, and one side was paralyzed from the hip to the foot. The doctors could not tell me what my trouble was and the medicine they gave did me no good. I became despoudent and thought I would surely die. I got into a highly nervous condi- tion and sleep was almost impossible. Just as Iwould fall asleep I would start up as though in a fright. This was the state of affairs when a. friend advised me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and I can never tell how thankful I am that Itook that advice. AiterI had used the third box I was able to leave my bed and move around the house a. little. By .the time I used six boxes I had gained greatly in strength and was able to do my own housework. I could eat my meals with relish.
