He’s a little fond of the girls, and it is possible too, that he may cultivate a feeling for 'l‘illson’s pan dried oats. Apart from this, we think he’ll be able to keep out of temptation. He was a {good worker in the Baptist church, where he will be mueh missed. A DESPATCH from Owen Sound says: Mrs. James Husband, a resident of Presqu’ Isle, a few miles north of Owen sound, found a remarkalke egg in her hennery this week.~ On the outer surface of the shell there is im- printed, clear and distinct, the figure ‘ of a baby. Side by side with the in- fant is a chick emerging from its shell. The pictures are so clearly defined that no stretch of the imagination is necessary to form an idea of what they represent. The egg was secured ‘by a collector of curios, and was brought yesterday to this town where it is attracting considerable attention. â€"Telescope. A MOST dastardly, cold-blooded and cruel murder took place in Toronto on Friday last, when Josephine Carr, a thirteen-year-old girl, kidnapped from the street in front of Eaton’s store, a baby boy only nine months’ old, and deliberately threw him over an eighty foot precipice. Her object was to get possession of the go-cart and sell it as she did previously with others she had stolen. The whole story is un- paralled in the annals of youthful crime, and the cold indiflerent man- ner in which the young murderess dis- posed of the infant and subsequenth denied to the officials all knowledge of the affair is almost beyond the power of the human mind to conceive. After! a time she confessed her guilt and is ' now in the toils. The whole story is unique, the being the result of neither premeditation nor anger, but simply [promptings of a momentary impulse. ' The girl’s record was not good and her street education and attendance at low class theatres had no influence towards improvement. that Mr. John H. Rose has opened up a grocery store in Theobali’s Old Stand, the J. M. Hunter block. and He opens up today a. stock of new fresh groceries and confections, and solicits a share at pnplic patronage.
