A rattier strange incident occurred
in township 6, rouge 11, a short time
ago. It appears front what we can
learn, that the principal character of
of our et'•ry was a young German
just out from College, and wielriag to
procure a homestead in the Catholic
reserve, hired a farmer to guide him
to his sectio$. Atter travelling some
distance through brush and shrub, the
farmer's riot; began barking violently
at sometluug in the shrubbery a short
di -tante in advance, and the young
Gorman, who was rather inclined fur
an adventure, started off iu hot pur
suit to where the dog was barking at
a small animal about the t'ize of a cat,
with r. bushy tail and two whitestrip-
es dawn his back. Hans drew his re-
volver and fired, but ur sooner had he
done so, than he turned to the fanner
and exclaimed, Tonder and •blitzen !
you eeo some plood on my face ?
Whew ! dot airmails very pad, pi gol-
ly I don't gine to shoot some mot s
like dot, you bed. After wishing Iti4
clothes next day,he left disgusted with
the country and its'aiiimala.
An elderly man named raniel Fo•—
bes, dropped dead while talking to a
friend oa the Market Square, Harnil

the gathering of blood clots on the
brain, is said to have been the cause.
