HUNTED DOWN. The prisoner Chattelle has been traced almost without a break from Stratford on Thursday to where he was arrested on Monday. Only short apaoes of time are unaccounted for. A link which was mise. ing Wednesday was supplied on Friday, Up to this time the man seen by Henry Leslie ooming away from the fatal swamp soon after the murder was committed was lost sight of, and not connected with the man who was put off a freight train close to Alma. Now the man who oamo from the swamp can be traced to Palmer. sten, to the house where Chattelle ad- mitted he got something to eat at supper time. A farmer named Moses Smith gave a man a ride late Friday afternoon. from the outskirts of Listowel to Gow• austown. He there got into a buggy with a man driving to Palmerston. Smith's description of the man corresponds with Chattelle. In support of this, two young men named Chamney say they saw a man in the bush two miles from the swamp where the murder was committed, and about a mile and a half from where Smith picked him up. The man attract- ed their attention because he wore a Scotch bonnet. This is the first witness. o£ the Tam o'-Shanter, which was the most distinctive feature of Cbattelle's olotbing when he appeared upon the Lis- towel platform on Tuesday. But, while these additional details have been added to the mass of testimony which was ready for the coroner's jury, some im. portant particulars are missing. A search was made on Thursday for the missing portions of the dead girl's 'body. The pool of water where the murderer washed his hands, and where small pieces of flesh and ekin were seen 013 Saturday, was thoroughly searched. It is only a small mud•hole, containing a few quarte of dirty water. It was an unlikely plane to conceal anything, and it discloses noth- ing. The swamp, as it is called, although the ground is higher and dryer than the name would imply, was searched on both sides of the paths whioh the murderer may have taken from the place where the body of his victim was found to the place where he washed his hands, and then to where the valise was found. The valise, by the way, is spoken of as having been buried under leaves, but it was only thrown to the ground, without attempt at concealment. A disused well is in the middle of a field alongside the swamp, and past which the murderer had just come when he was seen by Henry Leslie, who was asked by him where he could get a drink. This old, shallow well was thought most likely to be the place where the brutal murderer would have thrown the partshe had taken from his murdered victim. The most careful in. vestigation in it has, however, brought nothing out of its muidy bottom. num THE 0013001(0. Chattelle admits now that be broke in- to Mrs. MoLeod'a house at Ailsa Craig, and stole the valise and artiolee which she identified. At first he denied the houee.breaking, and declared he found the artiolee on a clothesline. This story, however, was insufficient to account for the brush and comb, and this being point. ed out to him by Chief McCarthy at Stratford in the gaol, Chattelle confessed to having stolen them from the house. The waist which was found upon him has been identified as having been stolen from the house. of Wm. Maynard, of the Bank of Commerce, Stratford, at the same time as the towel and girl's stook. Ings were taken. There has been some confusion about the number of women's waists found in Chattelle'e possession. There were only two. One of black cash- mere trimmed with brooded satin, was identified by Mrs. McLeod. This was the one Chattelle thew away when pur- sued near Erin ; the other was made of navyblue cotton with a white spot. It was found when the prisoner was strip- ped in the gaol. He was not wearing it, but had it folded moron his cheat, under his ahirt. Now, the only artiolee of those whioh Mrs. McLeod lost whioh had not been found are her umbrella and a white apron. The umbrella, Ohattelle says, he left on the railway track. When firs. McLeod asked him what ho had done with the apron he rallied that he tore it up to make strings, but he would not say what the strings were for. Examination Lae been made of the clothes he wore to discover if there were any bloodstains upon them, None have been found ; there are marks upon his knife which Etre supposed to be bloodstains, and these are the only suspicious marks that have been found m1 him. The stains upon the knife Have been examined. As TO BLOODSTAINS. Speakin, of bloodstains, Dr. Ruther- ford, by whom the post.mortem examina- tion of the dead ,girl wag made, said Friday night that it would bo quite possible, in bis opinion, for seal a murder to be oommittsd without mnoh blood being found on the coat or other. upper.clotbing of the murderer. If there`. had been some blood spots on the nine. derer'e Goat, they could be removed with soap and told water, or, if the man knew enough to allow them to dry, they could be lambed ont. The blood upoth the overailo will lie ouff';oient, witbopt Marko on other p000e of hiealotbing, if it gnu he shown that he wap wearing them when the witgep908 pow hilt in the morning; and Ode it to proved will he dotlew Pr. Rotberford says that the WAY the Nirl'e throat was out bowed that the murderer was either left.handed or that the knife stroke was given when the girl was lying down. In view of 90,oees Stnitil'o story, it will , be important 01 there aro blood. stains in the pookete of Chattelle'a trousers. The evidence goes to show that the man with the blank valise on Friday morning wap wearing the overalls tarn io. front, and that he must have carried in the valise the trousers which he wee wearing when arrested, These later, he says, he pa 01100ed at St, Mary's with part of the os he had earned digging a cellar at Taman, and the otore•keoper's receipt for the payment for them corm. borated this detail of his story, ,00M005 nes in A noLn, There is one of his admissions, how. ever, to which considerable eignifioanoe must be attached, Friday afternoon he received a visit from Malcolm MoFarlane and His Honor Judge Woods, They conversed with him some time in Fronoh, or rather in the patois of the French Collodion, and were able to gather from his talk that, whether or not he was born in St. Hyacinthe, as he olaime, he is well acquainted with that distriot. Before the interview closed His Honor said to that if the story he told was true, and he really was not in the neighborhood of Listowel at all, there would be a good deal of sympathy for him as an i11 -used and strongly-suapeoted man, and a fund could be raised for his defence. "I, my- self," said the Judge, would be ono to to contribute to a subscription to defend you." His answer is reported by Judge Woods as follows h- "It's no use ; I'm in a deep hole and I'll stay there. You have, to muob evi. dance against me." LEGISLATIVE NOM/NATIONS..

Monday's work was of a business nature, the Executive Commit- tee meeting in the Bridge street ohuroh parlors, and A. T. Dooly, Simone occupy- ing the chair in the absence of Dr. J. J. McLaren. The committee looked up the reports of the Normal Secretary Rev. John MoEweo, the General Secretary, A. E. Day, and the Honorary Primary Secretary, Mrs, Helena Duncan, and Tuesday morning concluded its work by J. J. Woodhouse, the Treasurer, reading his report. Rev. Mr. MoEwen recom- mended that the pastors and auperin. tendents of towns in which normal in- stitutes are to beheld be consulted, that county executive aim at having an in- stitute for each township, and that the next Provincial examination he held Sept. 27011, 1895. Mr. Day reported that he had travelled 5,000 miles, and had at- tended 88 county, 43 township and 72 city and town conventions, while admir- able work had been done in the normal work. Mrs. Duncan reported good work done among the primary unions. The "Treasurer's statement showed that the receipts were 94,098,28 the die. bnrsements $4,538.02, the balance being $154.11, and the chief expenditures be- ing $2,400 on amount for the salaries of the Normal Seoretariee. General Secre- tary, General Secretary and Treasurer, $329.10 for expenses to the Toronto convention. and 9100.41 for printing, etc., at the Methodist book room. Tuesday morning's convention pro- ceedings were brief, the time being given up to separate conferences of the various district sub-oommitteee, a good deal of worst being done. At 2;30 o'clock R. J. Score, of Toronto, the President of the Aseoaiation, opened the first open meet- ing of the convention. The first bud. nese done was to appoint the Nominating Committee. Next came the report of the District Chairman and of representatives of counties and cities, each delegate speak• ing being restricted in point of time, A large number of delegates answered to the oall, and their reports showed grafi. Eying progress and zeal. Rev, William Patterson, of Toronto, spoke eloquently and wisely upon the relations of the Sabbath School fn re• ration to the tomes of the twentieth century. John Charlton, lvf, P., contributed a declaration of his views on Sabbath observance and the meane which should be taken to preserve (0, in the course of whioh he described his efforts towards getting Parliament to pose a proper low upon the shbjeet.

THE QATCAME BACK..; '"5 bave got a pet kitten at home," .said a manufacturer of Manobester, N. H., re- oently, which I think hoe travelled about As rapidly and so far in one day as any other animal in the world. One morning about a month ago the kitten strayed in- to my factory a short time before Oho Maabinerywas started up. It got ploy. ing around the floor and soon took up its position in the big fly wheel, where, with- out being noticed, it nestled down and went to sleep. Soon the machinery was pub into motion, the wheel moving so rapidly that the poor kitten could not escape. Indeed, it is probable that puss was soon unconscious from dizziness. A little computation showe the distance theoat travelled. The wheel moves at: the rate of 250 revolutions a minute, and. that every turn pussy went seventeen feet. As the wheel was kept in motion 890 minutes without stopping, the kitten moat have travelled during that time a little over 300 miles. ` When the wheel was stopped the kitten was discovered and taken out more dead than alive, but it shortly recovered, and, although it has remainedabout the factory ever since, it is observed that it always gives the iy wheel a wide berth." FIGS AND THISTLES. .0. broken word can never be mended. Dead men have no faults. A pig styis not a good pearl market. Saying no to self is saying yes to God. Only when God honors us are we truly exalted. God never fails to promote the faithful worker. Try not only to be good, but to be good for something. Men care least for honor when most in want of bread. It is a great misfortune to be blind to our own faults. The higher a little man is lifted, the smaller he looks. Don't talk about yourself when you want to be interesting. If we could know all it would not be so hard to forgive all.. It is better to fail in trying to do good than ib is not to try. The footprints of godliness always point toward unselfishness. Everything God does means something good for the Ohristian. In most oases the reformer goes away from home to begin work. Temptation will follow us to the gate of heaven, but it cannot go in. Fishing for compliments is not :much better than fishing on Sunday. Doing will never make us lit for heaven, but not doing may keep us out. Itis much harder to be happy with riches than it is without them. It is only.when we give Christ our bur- dens that we -can take his yoke. The world needs men what'll' do right, no matter what is to Dome of it. Write the sin of the heart on the fore. head and who will love the light'? Find a man whom men love. and you will find one who has first loved men. Nothing is to be gained by .talking of heaven to a man who worships money. It is doubtful if the devil has ever been driven back an inch by star preaching. While he was thinking of how the rab- bit should be cooked, another man shot it. Every man who is carrying any kind of a burden ie invited to give it to Christ. The man who lives only for himself is helping to oarry on the devil's business. A vote to keep God out of the heart is a vote to destroy his power in the uni- verse. Our true standing before God depends upon whether we love or hate evil thoughts. There is a great difference between' serving the world and being the servant of the world. The devil does a big day's work on the day he makes a preacher afraid of the poorhouse. Religion as a cloak may deceive men, but it cannot give auy protection against God's judgment. If a poor man can give the Lord ten per Dent of his income, how much ought. a rioh man to give 7 It is not what the ]lands do, but what the heart says, that brings upon us the displeasure of God. If able preaching could have saved the world, the devil would Lave been travel. ling on foot long ago. If yon have to shout to tell people that. you are religious, there are many who will never find it Out. Every Christian ought to determine that he is going to follow (:hoist every day of his life, no matter what it will cost, The devil is prayer of the soya anything i traflio. not much afraid of the man who never does or a opposition to 'the liquor The Canadian Ticket Agents, Associa- tion met in Toronto on friday of last week and elected the following officers ; President, W.
