The body showed srnall discolorations of the thighs and arms; none of these were larger than a ten -cent piece. Dr. Milne returned to Blyth after his decision not to hold an inquest, but previously told the father and brothers of the head man that if they were not satisfied they could apply for t4 warrant. The two neighbors, Cole and Philips, were doing a great deal of talking, and ex- bressed the opinion that Brown had een killed with tt wrench found lying on the barn tfoor. Dr. Agnew, how- ever, who knew Brown well, concur'r• ed in the view that no inquest was ne- cessary. All this occurred on the Sat- urday morning on which the body was found. INSISTEED ON AN INQUEST. Late that night, perhaps after 12 o'clock, the father and brothers of the dead roan drove to Blyth, and took the coroner out of bed, to demand an in- quest. TheyiaccusedAlbert Ha• git, the hired man, whom Brown haddismiss- ed the day before his death. The fun- eral had been arranged for Monday, and the coroner, in order not to inter- fere with it, instructed theist to have a sufficient number of neighbors from whom to select a jury present on Monday morning, when the body would be viewed, and a postmortem examination executed. The arrange- ment was carried out,. Dr. Agnew, of Londesborough, and .Dr. Tait, of Blyth, performed the postmortem, and the coroner assisted. The spots on the body were examined and found to be due, in the opinion of the doctors, to ecchymosis, a condi- tion produced by Ole rupture of sur- face blood vessels, as at result of the pendent position of the body. The stomach and head were not examined, and the post-mortem was, therefore, not a complete one. At theititni. the body was viewed by the coroner on Saturday morning rigor mortis had advanced so far its to lead {riot to the conclusion that death had taken place between midnight and two a, in. Mrs. Brown and Dr. Agnew t•xpltiued that Brown, being a sleepless uran, had contracted the habit of getting up and walking tthout at all hours of the night.

Every person who does no . . have to pay storage on bit money is farnilar with the cliff' cult problem of making a smal income answer the requirements of these advanced times. Foot- wear is one of the unfailing necessities, and it costs a good deal in the course of a year—if you get the wrong kind. We ilkdon't keep the wrong kind. - . Not that we are more honest than the other dealers, but our 'long experience has taught us t how to avoid being "stuck" on poor goods. This knowledge is necessar- ily of benefit` to our customers, because, the cheaper a shoe firm can buy the cheaper it can afford to sell. "Cheap" doesn't mean poor quality, however, for if it did, our Shoes would not be `!cheap." We keep no poor quality goods, no matter what the grade. The celebrated makers of J. D. KING & CO., J. & T.

Dr, Milne took the precaution of issu- ing a warrant for Ha;:git's arrest in case he should refuse to attend on a subpoena. He also set out to trace all Haggitt's movements, in order to set at rest the stories circulated by Cole, Phillips, and others, that he had been at the Brown place early Saturday morning. and had, on the previous day, threatened to get even with Brown. He could find no verification of these rumors. Both Cole and Phillips, save the coroner, broke down in tht witness -box, and' admitted that their stories were without foundation Moreover, Haggitt, he found, was a diminutive young fellow, of wizened appearance, whereas Brown's great physicial strength was not much im- paired by his mental condition. Just What She Wanted. Cayuga, Jan. 18.—The suspense over the Sternaman case, which to -day had become almost painful, was to -night relieved by a despatch from the Sec- retary of State at, Ottawa, stating that the Minister of Justice had granted the condemned woman a new trial. Dur- ing the greater part of the day her case had (leen before the Dominion Cabinet, and the outcome of their deliberations was awaited with great anxiety. ltttltf 11t11111111t11f11f11t11f 11f11P11P11f 11P11P11f IiP 11P11P11P11Pitf �f t11t11f 111114 t1f 11P11P11P11f 11P11f 11f11t11t : ' DISSQL.UTIQN. • E- We will be right in it for SURDrte► ' Mrs ' Sternaman Granted a New Trial.

The matter •was before the entire Cabinet nn the report of the subcom- mittee, and after a long discussion it is announced to -night that it had been decided to grant Mrs. Sternaman a new trial under the alnendinept to the criminal code, made by Sir John Thompson, allowing a second trial un- ' der certain conditions in criminal cases. This will be the first, time in Canada of a second trial being granted. It is understood that the ground upon which the new trial was granted was the affidavit from the coroner with reference to embalming flnid being found in the man's stomach, evidence which was not produced at the trial. Bayfield. The Ball and Supper held here Tues- day night under the auspices of the C. O. F. was a grand success. Nothing could he pleasanter than the way in which the whole affair passed off and the committe consisting of F. Keegan, A. Peck, H. Talbot and J. Donald- son are entitled to much credit though several other members worked almost equally as hard in perfecting the ar- rangements. Supper was held in the River Hotel and the spread reflected great credit on host and hostess. About fifty couple sat down to the delicious spread and about the same number attended the Ball where sever- al hours were spent tripping the light fantastic to music furnished by the Zurich orchestra. Several of the guests came from Clinton and others from Goderich and the townships. 11,9 I As there are to be a number of so-called: Bargain Days here on the above date we propose; -i that our Dissolution Sale will overtop' them all] on that particular day, a s it 'is prices people are y after.
