'lhe second biz smash-up just outside the northern limits 0: this town occurred on Thursday evening of last week. About six o’clock one of those monster double header trains of forty cars, laden with 'Manitoba No 1 hard wheat, was coming around the sharp curve this side the junction when the twentyâ€"fifth car left the track. In a. moment nine others had fol- lowed it and were smashed to kindling vv vvu- With Conductor Quinlan .in the van and Drivers McMahon and McMillan in the cabooses the train left Midland at. ten o’clock in the morning and [came along Without mishap to the junction. The throttles of both engines were thrown open as usual to make the grade just south of that point. The train was making good headway when the curve was reached and then came the crash. No one was hurt and the damage was all to road, rolling stock, grain and con-I venience, for the trains had to go around by Blackwater for a day or two till the track was cleared. Gathering up the grain and corn was a big job and when it ;had been roughly done, Mr. S. Oliver bought the balance for $16. Driver Mc- Millan escaped from the big wreck west of the town last summer. A Lindsay Youth Murdered at the Central Prison At hail-past four o'clock Friday after-l noon a Central Prison convict named 1 Arthur Cardinal, now serving a fifth term, 1 having been sent from Ottawa for a year in May last, concealed himself in the cell of another prisoner named John Hughes, a lad of only 16 years of age. who with his father, James Hughes. was sent there from Lindsay for six months on a charge of vagrancy, and with 2; 15 inch bladed knife, obtained by stealth from the kitchen, stabbed him so furiously and repeatedly 1 that his victim's life has been undoubtedly l sacrificed. Cardinal was employed as a cleaner in one of the wings and young Hughes was a messenger. Earlier in the day there had been some altercation between them, Cardinal alleging that Hughes “told lies about him." At the hour named above, the prisoners go to their cells. Cardinal slipped up quietlv and entered Hughes cell to await his Victim's arrival. When the latter came the other leaped upon him and stabbed him twice on the be ad. and again I on the neck shoulder and back. Hughes‘ screams of pain and terror brought the guards on the run and Cardinal was over- powered, disarmed and placed in solitary confinement. Dr. Sloan, the prison doctor, and Dr. Harris were summoned and Hughes was put in the hospital. His wounds are terrible. Une gash had cut outapart of the skull and exposed the brain. During the night he began to sink: uâ€"°_v_ _ wounds are terrible. Une gash had cut outapart of the skull and exposed the brain.

TEN CARS WERE WRECKED In 1397. while serving a term at the Central Prison, Cardinal clubbed another prisoner and for so doing was tried and sentenced to Kingston Penitentiary for two years. so Theré i3 practically no hope of the lad's recovery, and if he dies Cardinal will be tried for murder. To the Editor of the Watchman Warden Sm,-â€"Your report of the case of Calvin vs. Lethangue in last week's issue. is most unfair to the defendants, and while you make no direct charge against them is calculated to cast a slur upon them, which is not at all borne out by the facts. There was no evidence given at the'tria‘ whatever, all the allegations of the plain- ‘tifl‘ were said by defendants to be utterly untrue. On the plaintiff s own story, as told by his pleadings, he had no show of a ground of claim and his lordship so held. The case was, as you say, dismissed with ‘ costs, the defendants undertaking not to‘ collect the costs unless the plaintiff pro. ceeded further with the litigation. His lordship said he was ready to give judge- ment in that form then, without taking any evidence, or to 20 on and hear the evidence and then determine the question of costs, and both counsel thereupon con- sented that judgment should be in that form rather than prolong the matter. Cardinal confessed that he inflicted the You can see the manifest unfairness of publishing an account of this which would seem to assume that any of the plaintiffs allegations were true. The only alleqa. tion which the plaintifi‘ placed any reliance upon was that the defendants, Lethangue and Messrs. John Kennedy and J. H. Sootheran of this town had entered into a fraudulent conspiracy to keep down the .price of land. This, we understand, is‘ denied by all the gentlemen mentioned. and their high character and standing is such that no person would believe such a charge, and we know ourselves that it was groundless. Yours truly. MCLAUGHLIN MCDIARMID. [Our report of the above case was re_ ceived from a legal gentleman who attend, ed the court. VWehknow nothing of the merits of either version.â€"â€"ED.

More than 70 years ago a. man owned a jackâ€"knife. which he sold {or a. gallon of rum, and by retail- ing it: by the glass made enough to buy two gallons, and by Selling that he was able to increase the quantity he purchased. He got, a barrel, then a cask, and at last a. large stock. and having a turn for business and industry he became richâ€"~and whom he died left. $80,000 to his three sons and one (laughter. The daughter married u mun who spent her money. and she died. The sons entered into folly and extravagance, and two died of dissipation and in poverty. The last, of the family lived lor many years on the charity of those who had knOWn him in his prosperity. He died a. short. time since. sudden- ly, in a barn, where he laid himself to take a drunken sleep. ()n his ‘ pockets being examined. all that was found in them was a string and a. jaCk-kllifi'. So 11. jack-knife hogan and ended the fortum- (if that family. This is a true story; and the fath- er who bought and sold rum, no doubt had plenty of it in his house and on his tnblv. In giving and recmmnendim,r it, to others, his sons learnod to like it. They \vvru like the little boy who was following his fnthvr through a field of potatoes. The father several times cautioned his son not. to tread on tho. potatoes. At lust. the boy said, “Father, I am walking exactly in your foot- stops.” Lot, ovary father ask himself, "no I-‘wish my son to walk in my foot,- steps?” and let, every boy ask his father. “Do you wish me to Walk (ex-- actly in your footsteps, father?"
