Female Imposters.
Last week, two women from a dis-
tance called on our citizens collecting
for the Sick Children's hospital. They
called on Councillor Greer, who ques-
tioned then i very closely. Chief Van-
norman interviewed them, and secur-
ed the book in which had been en-
tered the amounts received. It had
no heading, neither had the women
any authority to show from the offi-
cials of the hospital ; they stated that
they were collecting under the aus-
pices of the Church of England, but
produced nothing to prove their claim.
They have been reported from other
towns where they have collected
money and yet they did not attempt
to show that they had ever remitted
any money to the hospital authorities.
When they saw the game was up,
they pleaded not to be arrested. Chief
Vannorman asked thern how much
they had collected in town, and they
remembered here, as the representa- . said 'about $20. They handed him
that amount, although less than $10
tive of the Bank, at the funeral of the
late Mr. Oorbould of Wingham. was entered on the book. The Chief
promptly remitted the $20 to the hos-
pital authorities. .A. telegram from
John Ross Robertson to the Chief,
states that the women are imposters.
No person has any authority to collect
money in this way for the Sick Chil-
dren's hospital. It is a very worthy
institution and deserving of assistance
but the money should be sent direct.

Horse Thieves Caught.
On Thursday last, two men came to
town, leaving their horse and buggy
on the outskirts of the town. Their
actions excited the suspicion of Chief
Vannorman and he had his eye on
them. Failing to sell the horse, they
took it to Whitechurch, where they
again offered it. for sale. Finding no
cnstomer, they put it up by auction at
a sale of cattle that was in progress,
and the horse, buggy and harness
went to the highest bidder for $34.
The men came back to town and en-
deavored. to get away on a freight
train on Sunday, and this Anther
aroused suspicion. They then walked
out, but Chief Vannorman was soon
after them. He secured a conveyance
and taking with him Dave McDonald
and Art. Felon, drove ont towards
Bluevale. At the Junction, they over-
took the men, who asked for a ride.
This suited all right, and the Chief
soon brought them back t� town and
placed them in the lock-up. They
gave their names as Fred Pugh alias
John DaWSOD, and Norman Orr alias
Norman Campbell, The Chief corn-
tnunicated with Detective Nicholl of

sitated Chief Vannorman telephoning
and in response, Constable Wilkinson
came up armed with the proper au-
thority, and on Wednesday morning
the Constables took the prisoners with
them. The owner of the horse having
recovered his stolen property, also left
on Wednesday morning. Chief Van-
norman deserves credit for securing
the horse thieves and recovering the
property so quickly.

Mrs. W. E. Groves Dead.
Mr. W. E. Groves, a former resident
of .Wingham and now Principal of
Church street school, Toronto, suf-
fered a sad bereavement last week in
the death of his wife, who passed
away on Thnrsday, after an illness of
seveial months. Deceased was well
and favorably known Imre, having
been a resident for a number of years.
Her maiden name was Sarah Harper

sympathize with him in his trouble.
Might Have Been Fatal.
On Saturday last, two sons of Mr.
Samuel McBurney of Wawanosh,
aged about eight and twelve years,
went up -stairs, and in searching
around carne across a revolver. Un-
fortunately it was loaded, and while
the eldest was playing with it, one
barrel was discharged ; the bullet en-
tered the head of the younger boy
just behind the ear, and came out of
the cheek of the .same side of the
boy's face. Evidently the ball had
glanced ; at last accounts, the boy was
doing as well as could be expected,
but it was a close call.

self, and has the faculty of inspiring
others to work also.
