The announcement called for a ringing about of approval from the big,r crowd that filled all the avail- able Space in the oourt house. It only lasted for a mOment, but it was a stirring,' indication of the immense popularity ol the verdict. The magistrate rebuked the im-l petuous ones and (Tonstable Iluff announced in a stentorian voice . “ \Vhosew-r yous: is what's mak- ing them rows, youses got to quit I " Then, alter the magis- ‘ trate had made a neat little Spt'ccll, full of sensible sayings, l’onton was formally discharged. A \\'ll.D SCENE l-t)l.L()\V!£l). It is hard to (lt.S(‘l‘ll)(: the scene that followed. The friends of the popular bank clerk crowded over the railings surrounding the offi~ cials' table and showered congrat- ulations. He shook hands with his lawyers and the re} orteis, and with tears ofjoy in his eyes and a big lump of thanksgiying in his throat expressed his gratitude to those who had so faithfully stuck to him in his troubles. Chief of Police Adams and his assistants got the crowd away from the happy young fellow and took him into the judge's room, where he received more congratu- lations. The crowd surrounded the court house and cheers and hurrahs echoed through its corri- dors. A carriage was sent for and Ponton, to avord the crowd, was taken by a side door, but there were almost as many people stand- ing there as at the front. llis ap- pearance was greeted was an ova- tion that was simply wondertul and he was called upon to Speak He rose and was cheered again as he stated that he wanted to go and himself convey the joyful tid- ings to his mother, who was at Judge Wilkinson's house. CHEERS l’OR PONTON'S MOTHER. “Three cheers for Billy Pon- tOn's mother !" said someone, and three more hearty hurrahs were sounded. Iii/VI [Ht RUHIH'JIHH' IN) MINIHN HANK. After a few minutes' sojourn in the house Ponton answered the calls of the waiting,r throng outside and came out to the carriage. By this time the glare of torches, tooting of horns and questionable music of a hastily organized brass band announced that there was going to be “ a hot time in our town to-night." The band and its attributes formed up around the Paisley House, where Ponton boarded. and which is right oppo- site the Domlnion Bank, where the robbery occurred. CARRIED INTO THE HOTEL. Ponton vas driven directly to the hotel, and as he attempted to get out of the conveyanCe strong arms seized him and he was lifted shoulder high and carried into the hotel, where, while in his elevated position, he was forced to make another speech of gratitude to his enthusiastic friends. He was low- ered to the floor and most respect- fully allowed to go to the top of the stairs, where a group of ladies, including the waitresses, With whom he is a great favorite, stood and gazed with pride and satisfac- tion at the reCeption given to the man of whose innocence they have never had the slightest doubt. The carriage, whxch contained Ponton and his lawyers, Ii. Gus Porter and Col. Ponton of Belle- ville, was driven through thcclzu-r- ing crowd to Judge Wilkinson's house, where an affecting scene between mother and son took place. Ponton was rejoined by his legal advisers and started to walk out to the carriage, but he was again shouldered and carried to the rig. After another little speech, a pro. cession was formed, and, headed by the band, marched along the principal streetsof the t0wn. Law- yers Forter and Ponton delivered little addresses of thanks, the lat- ter being faiily bubbling over with joy at the acquittal of his relative. ponton was then taken lzack to Judge Wilkinson’s house, where he rejoined his mother. But the. crowd had not yet shown their full 211,>p:eciation of their hero. They paraded the streets and many waited up until after I o'clock this morning, when, accompanied by his mother and his lawyers, he went to the station to take the train to Belleville. He was given another grand ovation and carried to the train.â€"Toronto World. A WHOLE TOWN BURNED. Wirudgur, Nova Booth, a Mass of Hmouldm'lng Ruins. An ()lrl ( .0”le Parish in thc Flam- v:'.

Windsor is an historic town in the hind of Evangeline, nbcut fifty miles from Halifax, and is famous as aseat of lmtfiilllg, containing a litdics’ semin- ary and the King’s College, one of the ‘ oldest universities in America. It was one of the wealthiest towns for its size in (zuiudzi, and contained about 4,000 inhnbitniits. 3,000 of whom are now homeless. A colored man named Geo. Fletcher kept a billiard room and bar- rooni combined. On Saturday a paper was served upon him {or selling liquor contrary to the provisions of the Soott Act. Last night he celebrated the cir- cumstances by gettinggloriously drunk and setting fire to his place. Then he rushed out. The flsiiies followed him out of the door, and in less time than it takes to tell it the town was ablaze. A genuine hurricane from the north-west was blowing at the time, and the rapid ity with which the fire spread was dumbfoundiug.
