BUTCHERED IN A SWA3IP. Listowel, Ont., Oct. 19.—A girt named Jessie Keith, aged 14 years, ,. ,,. .daughter of Mr. William Keith, a if farmer, .about one and a half miles from this town, was foully and brut- ally murdered between 12 and 1 o'clock to -day. The unfortunate was met on the,. railway track as she was returning from town, where she had been to the post -office, by a tramp, it is supposed, and outraged and murdered. The r'railroad' sectionnlen, returning down the track after dinner, saw some 'newspapers and spilled rice on the •i.ttrack. Ung they discoverepond evidences ino vf foul est.gactiplay, ?]l went to Mr. Keith's, about half a mile distant, and upon returning and follow- ing the tracks a,cres,S a ploughed field, and about 80 yards into a swamp. DISCOVERED THE BODY 01? THE mat 'recently covered over with moss and rotten wood, the clothing haying been removed and taken away, the body bearing •evidence of the foulest of crimes. The body at this writing (9 o'clock p. in.) still retrains in the swamp, guarded, awaiting the arrival and action of the coroner, who is I expected from Stratford at 8.15, there ' : being no coroner here at present, he > being from home. An inquest will be :, held. The perpetrator of this brutal " crime, no doubt, cane up the railroad track, met his victim and disposed, of t the hod y as stated. Leaving the siva f Ile crossed over a portion of Mr. •- Is' farm directly • hutting Mr. •:TKleit , on the towu line. east of i toroeel and across s , to the third 'concession of Wallace, where he was seen about 4 o'clock this afternoon. Searchers are scouring the country • n all directions, and it is hoped they ill succeed in discovering and bring - ng to justice this fiend in human hape. . 4i THE CORONER ARRIVES. County Crown Attorney Idington herif1 Ilossie and the coroner, from Watford, arrived at the scene of the murder on the 8.15 p. m. train, stopping at the swamp, and after viewing the 'body' aft surroundings, had it remov- ' •ed to her late home. A jury has been stvorn in, and at this hour (10.30 p. rn.) the inquest is going on. The body 'presented a frightful appearance, her hroat having been cut and her hotly erribly cut and turn. • TWO ARRESTS. James Itrton, a farmer, reported that he hetiU followed the tramp up :Steward Drayton, and from that point the first haul of the• drat was Made. About 5 o'clock Tne. Flath, 'Constable at Drayton, J. M. Davidson and F. Ward drove into Listowel with a prisoner, who had been arrested just after passing through Moorefield, . about sixteen miles oft the northeast. When arrested the prisoner showed little surprise, and did not even ask 'What be was accused of. Altogether •lift:answers were so stupid and unsat•is- erretiir'y that it was decided to bring. >'lileq to Listowel. Not one, however, fif the persons who had seen the httspeet could identify him as the man (wide the valise. On his arrival here he wes surrounded by a large ,•croav ,. while• on the Ivey to the lock-up, and the cry "Lynch hint" was heard.' ft seemed no sympathy, however, and After the prisoner had been allowed to collect his thoughts for a time he wait questioned as to his movements on Friday. To The. Globo reporter, through the grating of hie cell the prisoner said that his name was Geo. McKay, and that his home was near Goderich. He could not give any definite information hs to his where- ahouts between 12 and 2 o'clock on Friday, even when it was pointed out that a few words on this, capable of corroboration, would set him free. •'I don't know what I am here for," he grumbled, "I was sixteen miles away fromere at noon yesterday, In the afternoon I worked for a farmer polling up roots. He gave me a meal tor it. I got the meal inside the house." 111 s=ower to a question as to whether he could describe or name the farmer, McKay, if that is his real name, said he could not. All that he remembered was that he had a whisker and a hired man—rather in- definite, but it was the best the pri- soner could do, and he was detained, pending inquiry into his statements. The second prisoner carne in after 6 o'clock, having been captured by De- puty Reeve Kemp on the line between Matyboro' and Mornington, about ten miles from the scene of the murder. He was an elderly little man, who called himself James Laden, said he was an Irish laborer and followed public works. He was on his wad to Clinton, he said, from Ehnira, and tbok lunch at a house near the Catholic church at Mackton, thirteen miles distant, on Friday. His story is believed, and shortly he will probably lie discharged. While Mc- Kay, either from intention or stupid- ity, can give no satisfactory account of himself. Mr. Iciington does not think tjfat he:is in any way concerned in the mustier. He still asks the constables to bring i the man with the valise, but up to tJhe present time without re- sult He rfi, however, piling up evid- ence against him. The wife of Section Boss Heard, down at Briton, saw hint early on Friday morning, and he had the satchel them. She, too, describes him accurately, and is in a position to do so because he got a drink there a little before 11 o'clock. He was a hard -look- ing character. Allof this testrmonygoes to show that until, the man with the valise is satisfactorily accounted for no other theory will be entertained. Sev- eral more arrests have been made. 11A btt�. Thos.

These included 3,500 hogs, 2,0 00 sheep and lambsa and aboutout 25 calves. Buyer's were in good at- tendance, but mostly operations were confined to stocker and feeder maid. Mr. P. Peers had eight car loads of Manitoba cattle on the markets, and sent four car loads of the best°through to Montreal.. These twelve car loads of cattle were from the Westbourne ranch, about 140 miles above Winni- peg. Export cattle—There was very little buying in this line. The only opera- tors were Mr. John Scott and Mr. Joseph Goold, who bought about five car loads at prices ranging from flip to 31fc per lb. Many of the cattle intend,. ed ats exporters were sold eventually as feeders Butchers' Cattle—This line was quiet, with prices no better than they were last market day. Choice cattle brought in the vicinity of 34c per 1b., only one or two choice heifers and steers going a fraction above that. Common sold slowly, down to 2 e per lb. Stockers and •• Feeders—There was the most activity in this line. Good feeders find a fair demand, the best of them fetching 3c 'per Ib. The range was down to 21c per lb for medium stockers. There is no buying for Mon- treal. Hogs—Although the offerings were exce )taonaalty heavy the demand was good for the right kind of hogs. Weighed off the cars, prices paid were front $4 60 to $4 75 per cwt. for the best bacon hogs.. A little higher was paid for some 2,000 hogs, which had been bought to arrive. Thick fat hogs brought $4 50 per cwt., but for stores .and light hogs there was 00 demand. Everything was cleaned up hefore the dose. For the right kind demand is good, but ,the hogs•and light are not wanted. Packers are making up their winter supplies for export, and they will , buy only good ban on hogs, not too fat. Sheep and Lahs—Lambs were quiet, with pritn ces slightly weaker on account of heavy offerings, They sold at from $1 75 to $240 per head. Shipping sheep were steady, though weak, with prices ranging from 3c per Ib for bucks up to - 31c per lb for the best shippers. Butch- ers' sheep are dull, selling at from $2 50 to $2 75 per head. Calves—There waas poor sale for calves. Only 25 head offered, but many of then) were of poor quality. Prices realized were from $1 to $5 per head, the latter for the best. g Milch Cows and Springers—Nearly 15 head were in, and all sold before the close at =changed prices—$25 to $45 pei• head.

RICE TELLS I•HOW HE WAS CURED OF SCIATIC RHEUMATISM— CRIPPLED FOR SIX YEARS. The Hon. John M. Rice, of Lousia, Lawrence county, Kentucky, has for many years served his native county and state in the Legislature at Frank- fort and Washington, and until his retirement was as noted figure in political andjudicial circles. A few days ago a Kentucky Post reporter called upon Judge Rice, who in the following words related the history of the causes that led to his retirement: "It is just abort six years since I had an attack of rheumatism, slight at first, but soon developing into sciatic rheumatism, hetum which h t,,,tn first with acute shooting pains in the flips, gradually extending downward to my feet. My condition became so bad that I eventually lost all )ower of my legs, and then the liver, kidneys and bladder, and in fact Puy whole system, became grangers. I tried time treat- ment of many physicians, but receiv- ing no lasting benefit from them, I went to, Hot Springs, Ark. I was not touch benefited by some months stay there, when I returned home. In 1891, I went to the Silurian Springs, Wakeshaw, Wis. I stayed there Olathe time, but w•ikli n impro- vement. Again I returner Lome, this time feeling ng hopes of recovery. Theis ni i cle s of my limbs' were now reduced by atrophy to mere strings. Sciatic pains tortured me terribly, but it was the disordered condition of my liver that teas I felt gradually wearing my life away. Doctors gave ire up, all kinds of remedies had been tried without avail, and there was nothing more for me to do but resign myself to fate. "I lingered on in this condition sustained almost entirely by stimulants until April, 1893, Oue day I saw an advertisement of Di. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. This was some- thing new, and as one more drug after so many others could do no harts, i was prevailed upon to try the Pink Pills. The effect of the pills was marvelous, and I could soon eat heart- ily, a thing I had not done for years. The liver began to perform its func- tions, and has done so ever since. Without doubt the pills saved my life, and while I do not crave notoriety I cannot refuse to testify to their worth." Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post-patid, on receipt ofrice (50 cents a Fox, or six boxes for 82.50,) by :addressing the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Brock- ville, Ont., or Schnifictady, N.
