The Clinton New Era, 1913-07-03, Page 2riles. Ronamts. 1 emirate WORKED' x.50 NWT • Toronto ';Boy Saved From' browning After Hard Fight. TORONTO,i June 23. -Over two ,anti a half hours of patient c"fort resulted in the rescue of Jin' Sector, a 16' year-old boy, from death by drowning' at. Grimsby Beach yesterday. The boy was a member of the Western Con greratinr,.1 Sunday School and cross. ed the lake yesterday on their annual' picnic.He lives at 5 V..... Koughnet avenue. When the picnickers arrived at Grimsby, a number of the boyo played baseball until lunch, and after eating went down to the wharf to a'irm, A group of spectators gathered around to watcli the boys dive, and they took great delight in, pretending at timed to be in distress. When Jiw Hector rose to the surface after a dive, with n" strange expression on his face, an'l immediately sank, most of those on the wharf thought it a joke, but when minute after minute went by and he did not reappear, . swimmers- and watchers alike began to grow anxious. Some ran off to get help. Little Gordon Blenkern alone kept his head. I -Ie dived after his nom panion, and oiler several failures, brought him to the surface. The boy had been under water over five min- utes and resuscitation seemed impos- sible. But officials of the school took charge of operations, and after more than two hours and a l'aif the boy was breathing again. BRIEFS FROM THE WIRES.

Sherbrooke i.lan Charged With Send. ing Bomb. SHERBROOKE, Que„ June 28. - On a charge of having caused the death of Mrs. Alphonse '1. Bilodeau by sending an infernal machine through the mails, L. A. Dufresne, civil engineer of this city, was yester• day arrested on a warrant sworn out by Kenneth P. McCaskill, chief of the provincial detective department. The arrest was made by Chief McCaskill and High Constable Mee. Dufresne ie the man whose name has been on many lips during the past ten days, and as this . fact was well known by him he was evidently not surprised at being charged. After reading the warrant be accom- panied the officers to court. All he would say was: "I expected the ar- rest and it is just as rell that it should be so, as I wish to clear my- self of these suspicions." 'Upon the arrival of Magistrate Mul- venny the warrant was read to Du- fresne. Counsel for the accused, J. A. Le- blanc, asked permission to have a consultation with the crown prosecu- tor, which was granted, and the court adjourned for half an hour. When court reassembled counsel for defence requested an adjournment un- til to -clay, 'which was granted. No Witnesses . were Gaal ere yesterday.

TORONTO, June 28. -The Depart- ment of Lands, Forests end Mines is taking steps to disqualify any exag- gerated reports of the treatment awarded applicants for lands in the north country. A despatch from Hearst alleging unfair treatment to settlers who had traveled long dis- tances to the registrar's office was entirely discredited by Deputy Minis- ter Aubrey White Inst evening. -me There were ,ply three easel which }feed IterComplaint whatever. In these it was claimed that the agent hal- accepted applications by mail, 'while hispinstructips called fEI''1 per- songl applteB'ti 1T in 'MO case, `-'IMLr. White spoke as follows) "When' the, information reached the Depart - merit that the agent had accepted applications by mail the Minister di- rected that the applications so accept- ed were to be disallowed and the par- ties who applied personally to the agent according to instructions given him were awarded the lands. There were n0 such excitement as people would imagine by reading the de- spatch, as there were only three cases about which there was any dispute." Mr. Smith Ballentine, who was quoted as one of those Ciscriminated against, actually received the land he applied for. SMALLPDX COMMON, New Ontario Township Rampant With Scourge. NORTH BAY, Ont„ June 28. -Pro- vincial Health Inspector Young has been trying to trace the source of the smallpox cases which have appeared in various places in the north country, principally in lumber mill towns and lumber and construction -camps. His quest led him to an outlying town- ship ten miles north of the O.P.R. main line where he found a veritable breeding bed of smallpox germs, all sanitary regulation being disregarded. Almost everybody in the settlement had been affected with smallpox, even the reeve, the chairman of the Board of Health and the school teacher. The disease had been concealed and no physician called in until one man who had contracted it tt.ought he was go- ing to die, and -called in a physician who reported the. case. ' THEY ONLY GOT $6,000. "French In Ontario" Tag Day Was ,a Disappointing Affair.

It; was expected that at least $10,000 would be raised. OIL BOAT EXPLODES Five Are Killed and Six Injured at New York. DOZEN UNACCOUNTED FOR Missing Men Are Believed to Have Made Their Escape on Craft That Came to the Rescue -Carelessness of a Machinist's Helper Is Said to Have Caused Two Hundred Tons of Oil to .Ignite. NEW YORK, June 28. -Two hun- dred tons of fuel oil on board the steel tank steamer Mohawk, owned by the Standard Oil' Co., exploded with a terrific roar and a burst of flame yesterday afternoon while the vessel was at anchor off Tompkins- ville, Staten Island, in New 'York Bay, killing five persons and injuring six others. A dozen more are unaccounted for, but are believed to have escaped on 'craft that came to the Mohawk's aid, or by swimming ashore. Two bodies were seen floating in the hold while fireboats were still pouring streams of water into the wrecked steamer late last night. The other three victims probably were blown to pieces. Carelessness of a machinist's helper was responsible for the explosion. Fifty men, including the crew and twenty machinists, who were making repairs preparatory to the Mohawk's departure for Tuxpan, Mexico, to -day were , an board. Perhaps a dozen of them were in the boiler and fire rooms. A helper was declared to have dropped a washer into the hold below the Ere room. Seeking to recover it, he is be- lieved to have carried a lighted can- dle, which caused combustion among generated gases in the hold. The explosion was heard for many miles around. A 200 -foot flash of flame, a column of smoke, the deton- ation, a volcano of debris, and the Mohawk settled aft while fireboats, wrecking tugs, Standard oil tugs, and other harbor craft came to the scene from all directions. The Mohawk's lifeboat was tossed 100 yards, and a score of men were -crown Prlinerd• These men were rescued, -iur from tire' w ter. Others clung td stanchions and rail or kiddie(' in the bow, whence they rtYere dragged to safety by persons on ' the first boat that ventured near. The Mohawk's crew were getting up steam to start the second half of her maiden voyage from Mexico and re- turn. She was without cargo. Shortly after nine o'clock last night the fire was under control, and the crew returned on board and began pumping the vessel out•, The stern was completely under water, but it is believed the rest of the hull is prac- tically intact, and that the steamer. can be readily got into drydock for repairs. FOUR BOXES Of xs KIDNEY PILLS PUT HER OR HER FEET. MRs. En. Boxer., Nokomis, Sask., writes: -"I had been troubled with weak back and kidneys. I bad terrible dizzy headaches, and could not sleep at night. Iii this I way suffered for ten years, until I read about DOAN'S KIDNEY PILLS. I purchased twoboxes, and as they helped me, I sent for two more, and they put me on my feet, and I have been able to work ever since." For Backache, Lame Back, Weak Back, or any other Kidney Trouble, there is no remedy to equal DOAN'S KIDNBY PILLS. They have been on the market for 20 years and therefore must be a staple article.
