raged over this. district last Tuesday
night for over an hour. The thunder
and lightning was incessant and the
rain poured down in torrents. No sn,a-
serial damage is reported so fare but
nany of the citizens were up ;and
dressed for any emergency. The sew-
eds were all flooded and a great a-
mount of mud and debris was swept
down the streets, but on Wednesday
morning normal conditions again pre-
vailed. -A bad break occurredin the

Sad Death. -A very sad ad sudden
death occurred on Wednesday, when
Mina May Dolmage, wife of Mr. Robt.
C. Dodds passed away at the home of
her mother elf the 7th concession. Mrs.
Dodds had always enjoyed good health
and on Saturday evening left her home
to call on her mother. Soon after
her arrival, she was stricken with a se-
vere attack of appendicitis and operat-
ed on early Sunday morning. This,
• not proving effective, a second opera.
-
tion -was deemed necessary and' was
performed on Tuesday, but she never
rallied and death relieved her suffering
the followine morning. The deceased
who was only 24 years of age, was
beloved by all, and her early, death
has dome with a great -sense of shock
to the whole community. She was the
third daughter of the late Charles
Doi/nage, and was married to her now
bereaved husband about four years a-
go, and is also survived by two small
daughters, her mothers three brothers -
and three sisters, to whom are ex-
tended the heartfelt sympathy of all
in their sad and suden bereavement.
The funeral services will be conducted
from the residence of her mother, to-
day, Friday, at 2.30 p.m., and inter-
mentment will be made in the Maite
hindbant Cenietery.
WINTHROP
A Great Sucess.-The entertainment
given in Calder's Hall, Winthrop, - on
Friday, April 12th, provided keen en-
joyment to an audience which filled
the hall to capacity. The feature of
the evening was a play entitled, "The
Ladies' Aid of Mohawk Crossing,"
given by about 25 of the ladies of
Winthrop and district.- The play, as
its title implies depicts a meeting
of ladies to discuss various church
matters in a supposedly bueiness like
manner. The disagreements among
the ladies at the meeting developed in-
to personalities and after prolonged
arguments nusnerous motions and no
business of definite nature was com-
pleted. The discussions were most
amusing and the play abounded in
witty saying. The costumes of the
ladies being -relics of past years add-
ed much to the play. They were truly
remarkable and the ladies deserve
credit for the pains takere by them in
gathering so wonderful a collection.
It would be difficult to single out the
players for special mention. but Miss
Blanchard took her pare 'very cleverly
and showed considerable ability, as
--also did Miss Ament as an aristocrat
from ercaton. Mrs. J. M. Govenlock
as a fighting suffragisteMiss Dorrance
who. could not forget tie existence of
a husband; Mrs. Harn, Mrs. J. G.
Grieve, Mrs. Blanchard and Miss
Smith, Mrs. Calder, Miss Beattie,
Mrs. katon. and Miss eilcCulla. The
otb.er members of the cast had smaller
parts, but they carried them success-
fully. Altogether the play went very
smoothy and the ladies are to be con-
gratulated upon their e.fforts. The
large audience showed their apprecia-
tion in no uncertain manner, and the
success of the play was well deserved

BOLO PASHA'S END •
Standing before a farizg squad in
the forest of Vincennes early on Tues-
day, Paul Bolo Pasha,. condeenne,d trai-
tor, lost entirely the attitude of in-
difference he had maintained subse-
quent to and during his trial. When
the order to fire was given the rifles
spoke, and Bolo crternpled up with sev-
eral bullets in his head.
Escorted, by aeveral guards 'Bolo
left the Sante Prison 45, minutes be-,
fore his executton. After leavingthe
automobile at Vincennes he listeend
to the exhortation of a prison chap-
lain.. Then his eyes were bandaged
and he went without a struggle to
his place before the firing squad.
"So much the better; I am delight -
d1" Bolo exclaimed. when awaken-
ed in the morning by Commandant
Julien of the Third Court-martial.
who told him that the hour of ex-
piation had arrived. These were the
only words spoken by Bolo except for
instructions to the chaplain to take
from his body a silk lace handker-
chief Which he placed on hie chest,
and give it to his brother, Mgil, Bolo.
The condemned man went to his
execution in a new suit of clothes
brought to the prison by his brother,
and wearing white -gloves.
• Before setting forth from the pris-
011 Bolo asked to be permitted to
partake of Communion.
After the execution the form of
an interment at Vincennnes was gone
through, and then 'the body was,
tured over to Bolo's family.
When Bolo was taken to the office
to go through the formalities of
his removal from prison for the ex-
ecution he refused to sign. the regis-
ter. The officials insisted, upon
which Bolo cried in an authoritative
tone: "It is I who com-mand here;
no one has anything more e to im-
pose upon me, I think."
'The chiPlain, after the execution,
tetnid lying over Bolo's heart 'two.
'embroidered handkerchiefs, which
had been pierced by tbe bullets. One
was given'to Bolo's brother and the
.
other. to his widow.
