A Sensational Case The last scene of the second act of the now famous Usborne robbery was play- ed in Exeter on Saturday afternoon 13th inst., when Ryan Rowcliffe, farmer, of the 7th line of Usborne township, the man at whose door many offences had been laid, came up for his final bearing before Squire Kay, and was committed to the December sessions at Goderich. Chapman, his accomplice and hired hand, lies in Goderich Jail awaiting the sentence of ledge Doyle, of Goderidt, before whom he has appeared. Chap- man was committed by Squire Kay on two charges, theft and conspiracy, to rob. Until he was committed not a word against bis employer would he say, but wben sent up for trial he broke down and charged his employer with baving been the instigator of the series ;.of crimes that have been committed against Usborne Township farmers for years, The coining of the private detective - his worming his way into the confiden• ce's of the people of the township, his working as a hired man gaining evidence against Chapman and his employer and the finer sceuce when Provincial Officer Whitesides stepped in and amed with a search warrant found loot piled high in the second story of the Ruwcilffe farm house -have greatly aroused the interest ot the people of the surrounding country. Since bis first arraignment a month ago Rowcliffe has said not a word, neither pleading nor electiug. His lawyer, Mr. Dicksou, of Exeter, elected for him on Saturday, b'aeing a• double charge, theft and conspiraby to rob, Rowcliffe has been admitted by County Crown Attorney Seagar, of Gorlerieb, to bail at $3,000. When first arrested on the charge of theft Rowcliffe was released on 82,000 bail,ehis own recognizance for $I,000 and two sureties for $500 each being ac- cepted. 'When the second charge that ----e.L oi>spiracy to steal was laid against bite the Drown attorney demanded 8t000. more personal bail. The case has been one of the most sensational robbery I l r bbcases ever held in y Western Ontario. For some time fbiev- ing ha& been going on in Usborne. Fanners have been missing harness, grain, parts of machinery, etc. The thieving became so prominent that last Winter a private detective was employed on the, case and nearly a month ago effected the arrest of two men, Byman Rotdcliffe, a farmer. on the 7th eon.; of Usborne township, and James Chapman, his hired man, Pro- vincial Detective Whitesides, of Hensel!, made the arrests. 'L'he two man have appeared before Squire Kay, of Exeter, several times, but until Friday Chapman would say natbing'to implicate his employer; On Friday he turned Kings evidence and accused Itis employer of being the in- stigator'of the thievery and of being the main mover in tbe whole affair. .The story of how the crime was fast- ened on the shoulders of the two men sounds like a page from a detective :nary. A private detective early last Winter ade his entry into the scene of to to u v the robberies, He 'worked first as a "farmer," then by degrees he worked 1115 way into the secrets of the two men. r u his .visits to the farm, apparently to doto helpin- the work of odd jobs and� the farm, he found evidence enough to e ie d ore of • Cha man laythe ern to the 4 p and his employer, Then the proviirckal'ofiicer took hold o"visitto he farm t tee vaso and paid a v si t presumably to by It.

A former Drusseilte In the Far North. The Winnipeg Free Press of August lath speaks as •follows of an interview with a former town boy :- A. Kneohtel, of the Dominion de- partment of forestry, who returned on Tuesday from a trip of some weeks' aeration through the territory which will be opened up by the construction of the Hudson Bay 'railwey, gave an interesting account of his journey. "Through the courtesy of his excel. lettey," said Mr. Knecbtel, "I was per. milted to •conic to Winnipeg on the Wolverine;, in company with Countess Grey and Lady Evelyn. I found the pountess very. much interested in the forestry work being done by the Do- minion government, and found her very Observant of the species. forms and habits of growth of the different trees.

In the Summer they will travel mostly with canoes. in the Winter with dog trains.

Murray, five miles West of Luckuow, on Wednesday of last week, in consequeuee of driuking Tartar Emetic, a poisonous medicine, wrongly dispensed for Roch- elle Salts, This is, in brief, the story of one of the most lamentable incidents inxecent local history, Miss Murray, who was a denghter of J. D. and Mrs. Murray, of Detroit, was, with ber parents, sister and brother, ou a re.tinion.visit to Luck - now, Her father and sister returned to Detroit two weeks ago, On Monday of last week she went to Lueknow,in com- pany with her cousin, and purchased in 11. G. Armstrong's drug store a small quantity of medicine supposed to be Rochelle Salts. Returning to her un- cle's she drank a quantity of this, re- marking at the time that it did not seem l like the medicine she had asked for. Imrnediately she became violently i11. Emetics were promptly administered, amt medical help was summoned. but without avail to save ber life. She died on Wednesday afternoon. Coroner Milne, of Blyth, was notified, After viewing the remains he summon- ed a jury for an inquest, and an exhaus- tive inquiry was conducted by Crown Attorney, Seager. of Goderich. A num. ber of witnesses were examined. The evidence went to slow that the lap ent- able error which -caused Miss M nr ay's death was not due to careless dispensing on the part of the druggist, but to the sccidentel placing of the poisonous drug only a short time previously, in the shelf bottle intended for the Rochelle Salts, At the time when this was done the latter bottle was empty. - Two medicines and the labels on the two bottles, are very similar in appearance ; and an A GREAT ENTERPRISE CDMES TO BHUSSELS F. R. Smith makes an Important Connection with the Larg- est Co -Operative Corporation in America, Backed by Men Doing an Annual Business Amounting to $75,000,000. PEOPLE OF BRUSSELS BENEFITTED F. R. Smith has with characteristic enterprise, demonstrated his ability to ' keep well abreast of the times by con- necting himself with the largest drug- gists' co-operation in America. The men connected with this enterprise do a yearly business aggregating over 875,000,000, which well emphasizes its soundness and magnitude. About three thousand retail drug- gists throughout the United States and Canada baveorganized themselves as a co-operative company for thepur- pose of producing a line of medical preparations which they recommend, absolutely guarantee and back up with their own names and personal reputations. The formulas of these remedies are throughly known to every one of these druggists and the ingredients of each will be truthfully described to the public and the reme- dies sold with the distinct understand- ing nderstanding that their purchase price will be instantly refunded without question or quibble if they fail to benefit the user. One thousand diffe'ent forrnulas were turned oval. to the company. Each formula being selected because and proved value and: of its tested a P established reputation, gained through continued and successful use by prominent physicians. A research committee of expert chemists and physicians made a most thorough and exhaustive test of each one of these one thousand prescriptions until they had selected about three hundred as being the very best and most dependable known to medical science, each for the treattnent end cnre of a particular ailment. These three hundred remedies are now manufactured by the company, which is known as tits United Ding Go., Boston, Maas„ and united Drug Go„ Limited, Toronto, Canada, in the largest, moat modern and best equip- ped pharmaceutical laboratories in America. The tremenclous output of this pom- pany enables it to purchase drugs, herbs and other necessary material in very large quantities. The cm -opera, - tion and professional advice of 3000 leading druggi sts gueratitees the highr quality of everything used anti guar- antees that only formulas of extra- ordinary merit are used in the- mane- faetiwiug of their products, The preparations of the company are shipped direct to the retail drug- gists w tats what are connected ith thr. fe enterprise. Thua their absolute 'fresh Hess 1s assured, it is impossible for their �n litY todeternlitter there e a le tnnidl men snrjobbers' profits to be added to their coat, and the pnbhe can obtain these prnduets at actual emit of rtianufaeture, plus a single retail Iprofit. O„ O• P' S. A: POPLESTONE, BLYTII Grand Deputy' Master assistant whet) placirih a shipment of drugs ou the shelves simply misread the label pertaining to this one particular parcel, After due 'consideration the jury returned a verdict in accordance with this evidence. • •' Mr. Armstrong had been in business for four years and his ea'efulness and ability as a dispenser of drugs has never been questioned. He,natu•ally feels his position keenly, but he is exonerated from all crimitfal- negligence in the matter. J, D, Murray, father of the deceased, was at one time a resident of Lueknow. He moved to Detroit 24 years ago and is now prominently connected with the firm of Elliott, Taylor & Wolfe. Noti- fied of his daughter's condition he and the remaining sister returned with all speed but too late to see her living. The deceased young lady was beautiful and accomplished, and was web mumu in Lucknuw because of many annual Sunt, mer visits paid there in company with her sister. The circumstances of this case are inexpressibly sad, and deep sympathy is extended to the stricken family i5 its bereavemen t. Montreal will spend half a million dol- lars on permanent sidewalks. Miss Sarah Merrydue, an English girl from Toronto, wasdrowned. at Shanty Bay. . The . Liberals of Russell, Manitoba, have decided to protest the election of A. L. Bonnycastle to the Provincial House. 'rhe Grand Trunk Railway Company was fined $5o and costs on each of thirteen charges of violating the immi- gration laws at Sarnia. The masons and bricklayers at work on the new Parliament buildings at Re - ghee have gone on strike because the contracting firm employing them is in- volved in a labor dispute at Montreal, Negotiations are going ou between the Canadian Pacific and Canadian Northern which may result in an agreement by which the Canadian Northern will use the C. P. R. passenger terminals in Montreal, One noticeable feature of this busi- ness, and a very commendable one, is that no one remedy Manufactured by this company is a "cure-all." Each one of the 300 different remedies is a known and dependable specific fur a pertiealar aillnent. The confidence of the druggists interested in this enter- I prise is unquestionably demonstrated by this guarantee, which is printed on every package : "The United Drug On., Limited, and The Rexall Store selling this preparation guarantee it to give satisfaction. If It does not, go back to the store where you bought it and get your money- it belongs to • you, and we want you to have it." This is certainly an innovation that must appeal to the people of Brussels. Itinsures safety and satisfaction 3m-' cause Our own local druggist, F. 7b. Smith, who is an well known and highly respected for his integrity, is connected with this enterprise anti is staking his own personal reputation on the quality of these remedies, and the very frankness with which he takes the people of Brussels into his' confidence insures an unprecedented success for these remedies, which are sold under the trade -name Rotel' which means King -of -All. ll. Fr reports coming from fin A n thousands of towns and cities, the Rexall Remedies are certainly demonstrating their full title to the name. Those who have previnusl refused to buy proprietory medicines because there was no evay of ascertaining their ingredients; can now pnrnhase Rexall Remedies, theformulas of which they can have for the asking. Besides, they are sold by a concern personally known to you and located right here in our own town, who gnat' altee9 thatthey are in every way as. represented or they will cost nothing.

R. Smith is so well and favorably known for his sterling honesty and s u .e dealing that we predict a great emcees for hint with the Rexall Rem- edies, and he is to be heartily congrat- ulated in bringing this .res anrl. g g greet modern business enterprise to Brus- sels.
