Moralizing over the sad fate- of Annie Griffin, who was allot by the young man Pearson,while driving with him nearHamil- ton, on Sunday, September 243rd, the Ham- ilton Time gives the following timely and useful advice to girls : Mothers should take more interest in •their daughters than some of them, are ac- eustorned to take. They should keep their girls near them ; not necessarily near them always in the physical sense, but near them in candid coufiderice, trust aud advisorship. The girl who trusts her mother, makes her a -confidante and adviser, will not be so apt to be led astray as she who is secretive, or who trusts others less worthy and less devoted. The mother who shares her deughter'e sac- red confidence is epared many misgivings and is enabled to direct her to avoid many dangers. Mother does not fOrget that she was herself a girl. Girls -Should be more carefu,1 in chociaing their company. She who makes herself cheap will be eetimated cheaply. She should know that the teen who is to be her escort on an outing will not idled the veneer of gentility when he gets out of eight of the homestead, and forget the courtesies due her as a lady. e She should know that the youth whom ehe honora with her company is to be trust ed to pills a hotel without filling up with that which dethrones his reason. She should be prompt to rid herself of any suitor who presumea on her favor •to treat her with neglect or undue familiarity. She :should not tolerate the beginieings of die - respect. She should trust her mother in all things. To her, not to inexperieneed comradem, should ehe go for advice and consolation. Mother more than atce body else wishes for her daughter's happiness ; why should she not be truated and. confided in'? Girls trust your mothers. Go to them for advice ; be guided by their ehaturer judg- ment, based on nbeervation and experience ; be sure they will try to add to your happi- neas, and gear you clear of many rocks and shoals. And keep your eyes open. No young man is so valuable or so desirable no matter how much he may be ", up on him self," as to make it worth your while to en - elute slights or discourtesy. If you are not now more to him than his cigar, his beer, his dog or hispls,y, what of the future? Take him into your home, instead of 'hanging over the gate, and let him see and be seen. If he is the right sort he •won't object, and if he isn't, the sootier you are rid of him the better. And, laetly, girls, don't try " reclaim" a ne'er-do-well who is already mortgaged to the saloon, the gaming table and the lirothel. Once in a million times it may succeed, but it's too risky a Ijob, and the chances are pen would but rirove a dead weight te More rapidly, drag him to perdi- tion. All the good you can de can be done better, and with greater safety as some - 'body else's sweetheart or wife. Look up- ward, not downward; seek ,wings, not .clogs. It Dazzles the World.

A letter from a gentleman in Keighley, Yorkshire, contains the followiog : Trade in England has been very good for seme tune, but there are many signs that a period of depression is close at hand. Coal has reached the highest price in twenty years and both owners and colliers are in clover, but tbey are enjoying their overflowing prosperity at the expense of the general induatries of the country, which cannot inaitea profit while coal is so deer. One coal owner is staid to be making $5,000 a day While another will have an income of $5,- W0O) this year. The colliers are taking their share of the good times in holidays. Tey can earn 3 a day, and, as they and their families are wallowing in wealth with ten dollars a week, they are only working two days out of the seven.

On the morning of his marriage he, was killed. It was given oub that he fell from a barn from which he was knocking off some boards'and received such injuries as resulted in his death. 'Sub- sequent events, however, led to the belief that the old Man heti been killed ;by his son Gerald, and. his hired msn Herbert. Both were arrested and have sin2e been in Lon- don gaol awaiting trial. The grand jury found a true bill against them. When they were brought before the court, to the sur- prise of all Herbert ileaded guilty. The trial has been postponed until next court at the request of Sifton'a counsel.

She ,fell from the rig and was carried by Pear- son and Mr, Sheppard into the latter's house, directly in front of which the mur- der was committed. Pearson at firat said that two men driving past in a rig had done the deed, but, on bei -cg closely questioned by the police later on, he broke dosvn and said he was guilty. One of his explanations is that he and the girl loved each other very much, but had nob money with which to get married, and decided that it was better to die together than to have to live apart, Their plan was for him to shoot and mortally wound Miss Griffin, and she before dying to shoot him. His first -shot, how- ever, rendered her unconscious and then he shot her a second time, but lacked the nerve to turn the revolver on himself, and threw it away.

"Mind your own business is a good rule to go by," saia veteran westerner With an .- ugly scar ,etween his thumb and his , index finger, 'and this mark you see on my hand keeps me in mind of it. I got it by not doing that. It happened in a. t, faro room one night in a mining town. I was watching a friend playing, and Just opposite was a little fellow neither of us knew. My friend had up -a bet of $20 which he won, and, just as he was about to take it, the little man reached out and got it. "'That's mine,' said my friend. "'It's mine,' said the little man, and the trouble was rising when the lookout, with a gun across his lap, put in to settle it. 'This is our business,' said my friend, waving the lookout off. 'Now,' he went on, addressing the little man, ,'we will just step outside and see whose itis.' "I thought I had seen a 'guerrilla,' one of those chaps around a game who are 'watching to catch sleeper, slip the checks, and knowing that somebody would be killed• if the two men went out- , side, I put my hand on my friend's shoul- der and announced that the ,Fuerrilla had pinched the bet. The guerrilla promptly - struck me in the jaw and. I went over, but was right up again, and he came for me with. a big knife. I caught at his arm and got the knife, which ripped my hand up, but I held on until somebody hit the guerrilla with a stool and knocked him senseless. A dozen pistol shots were fired durhil the scrap, 'just- to shoo the th'es out.' some joker said, but I was worse hurt than a.nahody else. "'You ought to have minded your own business,' said the old fellow who dressed my wounded hand. • "'But I wasn't going to see my friend robbed and killed,' I protested-. "Alebbe,' was the sage reply, 'but you'll have all you can do to keep ont of trouble mindin your own business in this country, and let this be a warnin to you.'
