Only an Illiad could tell the deeds of our boys at St. Julien say men who weigh their words. Twenty thous- and of our soldiers kept back that Ger- man host, 250,000 strong, on the road to Calais. Did any of our lads 'dream a year ago this night that by another Do- minicn Day their deeds would rank with brave Horatio at the bridge? "Since I read that book, men are 56. teen feet high and I cannot sleep," said one who read the first Illiad. And the tales of the fortitude, the courage, the bravery and the nobility of our men at St. Julien, and its aftermath make us echo his words this eve of Dominion Day 1915: --00— Surely there should be few sluggish pulses inthis land to -morrows. Not since the Fathers of Confederation, on July 1, 1867, celebrated the joining of all Canada, has there been such a sense of union as there is for the Dominion Day of 1915. Has not the past year seen all Canada stirred`by a feeling of nationhood that she never felt before. Down by the fields of Valcarties dawned a glorious new day for Canada that will be a great light to her people. "Valcartier seems lonely this spring to one who was here last September," writes a recent visitor. As if that magnificent scene of last year could be repeated. The dawn of a na- tion's new day does not come twice. 1 Down at. Valcartier all Canada gathered together as one man, East met west and Novia Scotia mingled with British Col umbia. And with the joining together of Canada's' sons at Valcartier, this - na tion has becomea Confederation equal to the dreams of those �h o e w o made the first Dominion Day. "To fight for right, to suffer for it, to die if need .be." That is the spirit which has made the Little Isle in the Sea a beacon light to a whole world,. Since last Dominion Day our men have proved themselves worthy of their Mother. They have started to pay the debt we owe Britain's sons who by their blood bought this continent. If some think we are a long distance from Europe's tyranny let them remem ber who enabled us to be here. It was Britain's sons whose blood bought_us th e liberty we had. Why is this Dominion Day the most solemn fete day Canada has ever had? Thousands of our men have gone forth to keep liberty alive in the world. Before they finish Europe may also have a Con federation Day to celebrate. How many of us realize the vastness of Canada's Confederation? Verily we are another Europe, Prince Edward Island, Novia Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario are but half. Then Manitoba, one quarter larger than Ger many, Saskatchewan as large as France, Alberta larger than Germany or France and British Columbia largest of all Are we worthy of it all?

Sir:— Your Editorial Note on this question in issue of 24th ought not to pass with out notice, if only on account of those who possibly think that you know some thing concerning what you write. In the first place, you know evidently as little about a dry or wet canteen, as you do about the proceedings of the Synod! Whatever you heard, was only hearsay evidence, for you were not present, and no verbatim report was taken. It must, I acknowledge, ,have, been galling to your narrowness of view, to le0;t0-.that, body with the inteifigence and weight of the Anglican Syncd of Huron, voted down by 2 or 3 to 1, a resolution recommending the Dry Canteen; while your own co - religionists were struggling, with much acrimony of debate, over the momentous question of, "Is it right to send tobacco to the soldiers at the front?' This is a proof, if proof were needed, to show the absurd lengths that you will go. I would like to put every person that took part in that sage discussion into the trenches, with'shell shrieking around them, and scenes of blood -shed and horror enough to appal the stoutest heart that ever beat in human breast, and then see what they would think of those, who far removed from danger's zone, discuss in no temperance of. speech, thought or conduct, whether tobacco they ask for should be denied them! The Anglican Synod vetoed a dry canteen, simply and solely because, refusing to be led by specious declama- tion, as the manner of some is, and heeding facts as revealed by those, in formed upon the subject; they concluded that a canteen dispensing ale or beer, under proper military supervision, is infinitely preferable to practically driving our soldiers into the saloon, the groggery or worse. JOHN RANSFORD June 2Sth. (Note by Editor: For a stranger to read some of Mr. Ransford's" hot stuff" they would imagine he would surely re- quire a graveyard of his own wherein could be interred the slaughtered victims of his tongue and pen but those of us who are acquainted with the genial gentleman are aware that those "love taps" of his are of the head and not the heart, The Methodist Conference will of course "go away back and sit down" after their chastisement but notwithstanding our "narrowness" and want of knowledge there are numerous other bodies of "in- telligence and weight" who voted dia- metrically opposite to Mr. Ransford and his co -religionists on the canteen question. Qf course it was before he made his speech and wrote the above letter. There are also some facts from the battlefield that say the wet canteen is a curse. If we dare place the opinion of some mili- tary authorities at the front in opposition to Mr. Ransford's experience in the trenches but we hesitate to do so, The New Era is satisfied, however, that the, dry canteen will prove less of a snare than the other kind and that the soldier boys who pattern their morals after sobriety will win out:) Londesboro Farmer Loser to Lightning 9 9 IConstantinople will soon he a port of call by the Allies.

Former Clinton Boy Murdered Dr. Harry Williams, son of the late Dr. R. W. Williams, of this Town Shot at Hamilton Hamilton, ;Tilly Hedgewood Holmes of Gravenhurst, Ont., today entered the office of Dr. Harry rte.,eae.,. den tist, ,i f, l 'Rf�tee-tP�- S'liihtl'ies convereiit''ro'ir'lwith him took oat a revolver and killed the doctor, then himself, no motive known for shoot- ing When they met they greeted each other as friends, according to a young lady in the doctors outer office. The above was a despatch sent out by the press, but the Hamilton Spec- tator, of Friday last, gives a much fuller account of the shocking tragedy at Flamilton:— De. Harry Williams, 40 years old, was shot and almost instantly killed in his surgery at noon today by Hedge wood A. Holmes, who then turned the smoking Says.ge automatic on himself and buried a ebot in his own brain, Dr. Williams died before medical at tention could be given him. Holmes was taken to the city hospital and et press time was in a dying condition. Detective Shirley was on the scene within five minutes of the shooting, but a rigid and thorough investigation has failed to uncover a motive for the rash act. Has Brothers at Front. Seven months ago Dr. Williams took over the practice of Dr. Victor Ross, who is on the staff: at Gravenhurst sanatorium, Mrs. W. Clark, with her two daughters, Dorothy Allison and Frances, rented Dr. Ross' residence, and Dr. Williams rented one front room for use as his office and surgery. Yesterday afternoon. Holmes called ar, the house, and Miss Dorothy Clark answered his ring. He asked for De. Williams, and was told the doctor was out. Holmes and Miss Clark, engaged in a short conversation and 'talk final ly drifted around to the war. Holmes, Mise Clark states, told her he had 3 brothers at the front, and would he there himself only he was a "T,B." from Gravenhurst, Mies Clark took this to mean that he was a tubercular patient, and that he had called as a patient lo see the doctor, Holmes left the house and said hewould call again. Recognized Each Other. At 11,30 this morning he returned but found the doctor out. Mies Clark again answered tho ring and he said he would go into the surgery and wait for Dr. Williams to return,- Shortly after 12 o'clock Dr.Williams arrived at the house. Miss Clark was stand log in the ball and she heard Dr. Wil Hams exclaim; "Why, hello Ahbie, how's tricks?" Holmes replied: "Hello Doc," and both walked into the sur ger,. Dr. Williams shut the door and Miss nark went out to the kit then with her sister,,Francis. Fifteen minutes later three shots rang out in rapid succession and the Clark girls ran into the surgery. The sight that met their gaze as they forced open the surgery door was sickening. Dr. Wil Hams, with blood gushing from a wound in hie left temple, lay on his face on the floor in the northeast °or tier of the'rrom, Directly inside the door, Holmes was on his back on the floor, blood welling from a hole in his right temple. Under his outstretched •right hand was a Savage automatic' revblver. Big Barn and Stock ofWm,..Ross ' Holmes' was, ; heaving' convulsive' breaths, and 'appeared to be in great Wiped Out by Fire. Last Wednesday evening a severe electrical storm broke over the village of Londesboro followed by a heavy downpour of rain. during which a large barn of Wm. Ross was destroy ed with several hogs and most of his implements ant machinery Despite the effort of the neighbours the build' Mg was burned to the ground. The loss was $2,000 which is partially cov eyed by insurance. Mr. Ross will build as soon as. possible in order to he able to house this summers crop Sir, Thos. Hawkins, who is the local agent for the Preston Steel Oe. has Be cured tlie order for a new steel barn which will be 36 by 75 fret. - It will be erected as soon as MrRoss gets the walls ready agony, Terrified and hysterical, the younggirls tried to explain the horri ble tragedy to the police of the Central station by telephone. Detective Shir ley hurried to the house in the auto'' patrol, and was the first to enter the room of death.. He instructed that nothing be disturbed, and telephoned to Dr. Harper. but before the doctor reached the house Williams expired. Drs, Jones, Simpson, Coady and Mut len hurried to the scene, and Drs. Jones and Simpson accompanied the dying Holmes to the hospital HolmesIdentified The identity of Holmes was notes tablished until Detective Shirley found a crumpled envelope in his pocket, bearing the name,.liedgewood Holmes Gravenhurst.On the inside of his straw hat were the initials, "H. H." Miss Dorothy Clark, in conversation with a Spectator reporter 5 few` min' Tl urs'day, Julys, .,Nt 1015. Utes after the shooting, said that Holmes appeared perfectly rational in his conversation, and she knows of no reason why he should commit the rash act, Duringthe half hour he waited' for the doctor to come. he sat looking, out of the front window on to Kin({ Street. There was no load talk- ing.in the surgery after Dr. Williams arrived, and the Meade soaked room showed no signs of a struggle, every. thing being in its phare. Before the clic art's e i ed Mise DorothyClark rk re• moved the wastepaper basket from the surgery. When Detective Shirley gave instructions that nothing was to be disturbed, she told him of removing the basket and said it was at the back of the, house. , "1 thought perhaps you would like to examine the contents of the bas- ket." she said. Mrs: Clark, mother of the girls, who was out cursing at the time of the shooting, was greatly upset, when -the awful news was broken to her. All three women are ill from fright and shock. Coroner Simpson is in charge of the inquest into the circumstances attend- ing Dr. William's death. The body will be viewed by the jurors this even- ing. Saturday's Spectator gives fur Cher particulars,— Twenty four hours have elapsed since Hepworth Holmes shot down Dr Harry Williams in his surgery at 537 King street east, and then turned the Savage automatic on himself, yet the police admit they are uncertain as to. the motive of the terrible deed. Holmes, 'trilled through the head with a brass jacketed 32 Caliber pullet, lia gered until 8 45 last evening and then passed away. He made no statement being unconseious until the end. The supposition, popular in police circles is that the assassin was ad dieted to drugs—a "dope" fiend that he pleaded with Dr. Williams to furn ish him with drugs and then when the doctor refused he became enraged and shot him down. Relatives of the dead physician discredits this theory, how ever, and hold to the belief that he committed the murder because Dr, W,lliams refused to treat him for tuberculosis. There will he no inquest into the circumstances attending Holmes death Corner Hopkins got in touch with Crown Attorney Washington last evening and wastold that two inquests would be unnecessary that all the evi dente would be submitted at the in quest into the physician's death on Monday evening. Dr. Victor Ross, badly upset as a re sult of the tragedy, arrived back from Gravenhurst on the midnight train Talking to a Spectator reporter this morning he said he could advance no theory for the crime. Dr, 'Ross did not know Holmes and never heard of: him until he received a telegrant.,,ep prising him of the tragedy. ,,'cJhen at Gravenhurst, Holmes wa1,'a patient in the cottage sanitoni,'a3j . Dr Ross was quartered at Dr,,'Parfait'e sanatorium and the two Lever met TWPolice olice are attempting to trace Tie sale of the revolver. They have submitted the number to the manufac tonere and expect a reply this after noon, Holmes, eo far as can be ascertained, came to Hamilton on Wednesday morning, He was in an advanced stage of Tuberculosis and the most plausible theory of the motive leading np to the crime ie that his mind be came affected ani he allowed himself to believe that Dr. Williams was the only physician who could possibly cure him. Dr. Williams who attended Holmes at Gravenhurstrabsolutely re fused to do anything for him here in silted that he go back to the sanitor ium. He called on Dr. Williams on Wednesday morning, shortly before noon. At that time, it is said, he was most insistent that the doctor take his case. Knowing that he was a Graven. burst patient, Dr. Williams told him that it would be most unprofessional for him to interfere. Holmes, how ever, became more insistent, and acted like a man who was out of hie mind Specialists in tuberculosis claim that the disease, in its advanced stage, of fects the brain. The motive, using these arguments as a basis, is that Holmes, in a fit of enmity, decided to do away with the doctor and himself, the act of a madman. His line of reasoning apparently was: "You re fuse to cure me, so I'll kill you and myself as well." The fact that the automatic revol ver from which the shots were fired was new tends to show, the police claim that it was purchased in Hama ton. Chief Wnatley, however, has issued no permits for the purchase of firearms since he, has JJiisen in office, If the revolver was bought in Hamil ton it was bought without a permit. Other reason that Holmes, brooding over his ailment might have purchased the revolver before he came to Hamilton with the intention of cheating the white plague by taking. his own life Dr. Williams, who intended enlisting for service at the front just as soon as Dr. Victor Ross could return to Ham ilton to his practice, was a son of the late Dr. Williams of Alanford, Ont. The late Bishop Williams, who for many years was general superinten dent of the Methodjst church of Cana da, was 'grandfather. A brother Ed win is engaged in the legal profession in Regina. Though the deceased phy sician had been in Hamilton but seven months, he welded many friendships. He was a particularly likeable young man and hada reputation for being one of the most capeable lung specia fists in the province. Holmes was a native of Truro, Nova Scotia, and was 28 years of age. That he came to Hamilton direct from Gra venhurst is certain, for advice from Gravenhurst state that he spent the week end at the sanitoriom and was there' on Monday. He was a member of a regiment at Truro and his brother is now at the front. One sister it is also stated, survives. Dr, Hopkins is positive that Holmes is a man who. tried to sell him some stock in the Chimney Ore Mining Company a year ago,andalso tried to interest him in a cafe promoting scheme, He was Don netted formerly with the Child's Res aaurant Co. Dr, Hopkins claims "I saw Holmes, before he was re moved from the doctors surgery and I also saw biro at the hospital. There is no mistake in my identification for I recognized him instantly, 'Dr, Hop kins told a Spectator reporter last, evening That Dr. Williams, knew Holmes to be dangerous is stated by relatives here. He has told his aunt, Mrs. Ross 52 Markland, street, andhis sister who is visiting here from' Cleveland, that Holmes• mind was affected, They warned him to have nothing to do with the man, Miss Williams especial ly being solicitous for her brother,s welfare Die Wililams rn,ade it a cus tom to drop around to the Markland treat residence every morning, While he was chatting with his sister yester day morning hiss Dorothy Clark tato. phoned that Holmes wan waiting ler him ab his surgery: T, to sister plead a ed with him to be wary of the man but he waved a cheery good bye as he walked towards his automobille at the curb and sang out "Don't worry about me l'll calm him down and talk sooth ingly to him and I think I can get the poor fellow to go back to Graven hurst.
