Witchcraft Case Before Appellate Divi-
sion at Osgoode Hall.
The Appellate ETivision at Osgoode
Hall has refused to quash the conviction
of Miss Margaret Pollock, who resides
near Blyth, and who was found guilty by
Judge Dickson of Goderich of occult
practices. She was convicted on
the charge that she did "unlawfully
pretend from skill and certain
knowledge in occult and crafty,
science tco discover where and in what
manner certain goods, grain and oats
supposed to have been. stolen from John
Leinhardt could be found." and the judge
suspended sentence on the understanding
that she would practise no more "rod itch,
craft."
the Appellate Division says' that in
view of Miss Pollock's undoubted good
faith the suggestion that sentence might
be suspended might be carried into effect.

Tuckersmith, at a salary of 11,000 and

Teachers of Ontario for tedchers of Mr.
Strong's experience, his board agrees to
increase his salary to 11.200 if any of the
teachers in neighboring sections receive
the minimum salary of 11.200. This is a
shrewd precaution on the part of the
trustees. It is said Normal students are
applying for 11,000 this year as an initial
salary.
