We are pleased to hear that our townsman, Sir. Thos, Thompson, who has been working on this section of G. W. R. for several years, has been promoted to be boss ou this same sect- ion.

Eden. FooTBALL.—According to arrange- ments made some time ago, our foot- ball team went to Lucan on Saturday last to play the team of that town for a silver cup given by J. D. McColl, of Lucan. It will be remembered it was at one time announced that this game should take place on Saturday, Oct. 3, but on account of the Lucan boys be- ing suddenly seized with a serious ill ness called "fear," Mr. McColl was obliged to postpone the game until they regained strength and courage. Hence it came about that the game was arranged for last Saturday, but alas! when onr boys arrived in the town they found that their courage had again deserted then and that the prospects of -a game were but slight However, upon .itlterviewin the] cap tain (who, by the way, is now a resi- dent of London) he assured us that he hast somewhat revived the hopes of his team by bringing with him from Lon- don a detachment of players selected from the difti;rent city clubs. This was all very fine as far as it went, but really it did not speak very highly for the abilities of the Lucan football club, It is not a very usual thing for a flourishing; town like Lucan, to. pretend' to Support a football club to act as spectators, while hired players are en- deavoring to wile honors for them, Neyertheless this was the true situat- ion of affairs—there were the regular Lucan players standing among the spectators to witness the game -- width however did not happen to tale place. As our capts in pointed out to them, it was a contest between our team and Lucan as to which should have the prize; and not between our team and a team frons Lucan, and London combined. He also challenged the LUeau team over and over again to play for the cup, and oven offered after playing for the prize with Lucas, to play theircombitiatiotl tenni for any prize or amount they wished to name. Mn J. D. McColl also very properly pointed out to the Liman captain that this was by no means a Lucas team and that if he did not get : his Lucan Men to play, the prize certainly be- longed to the Aden ream, which finally waS the case,. All efforts to mallet he Lucan team to play were i11 Yain—it was impossible to burst the Lucas and London `e0 lel' tl I mta a o r, They did not care to play vherthey were sure of defeat.i They were not in it and they ,. r.. knew t,tlu.y would not talar„ they didn't ,` lllaiy; they lost the cup; the ..

'William Cpy confessed on October 20th, to the murder of. John Whalen, whose body was found buried on the mountain. side at SV isiling10n, :47+4ass, last Tuesday. He says he leerned on Saturday, August 29th, that Whalen had 131011 tied nt elopement with Mrs. Coy. When he reached home tato Sat urday night Whalen was absent, He went into the house tel get a lantern. 1171d started to hunt Whalen up, He could find no trace of him, and return- ed to the house girl found Whaler's trunk standing in his room. He broke it open and found iris wife's clothing packed in it. While examining the trunk Whalen came in. This was be- tween two and three o'clock in the morning. Whalen asked Coy what he was doing, and a quarrel followed. Ac- cording to Coy's story Whalen .stepped outside and returned with an axe and club, and then strnck Coy with his fists, knocking him into a corner. Whalen then seized the axe and struck twice at Coy, who grappled with him and after a hard struggle succeeded ir1 getting possession of the axe. Whalen then seized the club, and, as he tried to strike.Coy, the latter struck him with the axe, smashing in his skull. Whalen fell dead. Coy filially took tee axe and cut Whalen's throat to make sure of his death, then dragged the body into the yard and left it while he cut the bloody pieces out of the carpet and bedding and burned them. He then went into the yard and. cut the legs from «patens body with the axe. and carried the remains up to the mountain and buried them. Coy -says he killed Whalen in self defence and exunerates Joe Kelly and Mrs. Coy saying they knew nothing about the crime. When asked about °ho -es he came to have so much money immed- iately after Whalen's disappearance, he became reticent, but finally said. Whalen gave it to him in consideration of his saying nothing about his (Wha- len's) intimacy with Mrs. Coy. I3J1.1311L:'v.
