Punic Jardine Will
Be Hanged In June
Goderich, April 14.—Edward Jai.
dint/ was to -day found guilty of the
murder of Lizzie Anderson in a lone-
ly spoli near the fain grounds on
Sept. 20th last, and was sentenced
by Chief Justice Falconbridge to be
hanged on the 16th of June.
The court was crowded when the
trial was reopened at 0.30 this mor-
ning, and almost, immediately L. E.
Dancer, the prisoner's counsel, began
his address to the jury. elle declar-
ed Mar there was not a •tittle of
evidence on which to base a convic-
tion, excuj t the prisoner's confession
to Dr. Smith. There was, he con-
tended, no reason or motive for, the
commissionof this act. Yet the in-
dictment
dictment charges "malice afore-
thought." If you find there is no
malice, you will be quite justified in
finding him gt,aty on account of the
in:nnity,-and to my mind that is the
proper verdict in this cam," he said.
"Physicians for the defence and al-
so Dr. Gailow, a ca.iwsi witness, wee
the opinion that at the time of the
crime the man, being a fiJxual per-
vert, would 'not* have knowledge of
the quality of his act.
"You have witnessed • the conduct
of the prisonea in the box, the most
uninterested man in court, apparent-
ly. Our hospitals and asylums are
full of such as he. Can you decide
for capital punishment in his case ?"
Mr. Dancey spoke for 45 minuterI
and was followed by Mr. Blackstock,
who :*joke. for an hour. The case
went to 't'he juey at noon, When
court re -opened at 1.15, the jurymen
were in their placee.
"Gentlemen of the jury, have you
agreed on a verdict ? asked •ehe
clerk....
"We have."
"tihat' is it 9?"
"We find the prisoner guilty," said
Foreman Andrew.
Jardine was then ordered to stand
up. When asked if'. he had anything
to say why sentence should not be
passed, he ,replied :: "No."
Chief Justice Falconbridge in sent-
encing the prisoner, declared that
therewas not the slightest hope,
that the sentence would be Commut-
ed.
"I would recommend you to spend
the remaining clays left you on earth
in preparation for the judgment of
the wo'eld to came.

County of Huron, has cactly two
months in which ee find a banana/1.
A prisonerhas been' condemned to
death for tee fir:' 'time in the coun-
ty in 42 years or thereabouts,.` and
there is now no official hangman. So
absoluteis the lack of recent p•re ee-
dent in such : matter's that the
traditional black cap was not • avail-
able' when Chief Justice Falcoabridge'
pronounced the death sentence.
"There will be no trouble In. get-

was the opinion. of Deputy Sheriff
Cameron. - "These are pl•t.aty who.

Vanstone is In the
Penitentiarg for Life
(1-oderaish, April 15.—For heating his
child to death while in a state of
fa nzy, George Vanstone was today
condemned by Chief Justice Fal-
conbridge to pass the rest ot his nat-
ural life in Kingston penitentiary.
The ca:ene was committed on tike
night of December 15th last. Van=
'stone had instructed bis five-year-old
nut Freddie to write on a• slate. The
child was slow to comply and the
father struck hint for disobendicmce.
Freddie *hen become frightened and
refused or could not write, and Iron-
stone
anstone became so enraged that he seiz-
ed a stick and pounded the child un-
til it .expired., 'The defence was in-
sanity. Tram of mental degeneracy
are shown in his family.
The jury was out two hours and a
half, and during. their absence the
prisoner talked nervesesly with leis
wife. He, however, seemed calm
enough after sentence was pronounce
ed. His wife burst into tears and
was led in a helpless condition from
the court room.

The chief witnesses were - Mrs. Min-
nie Vanstone, wife of the prisoner,
and Lloyd, his son. They said that
on the night of December 15th George
Vanstone had told his son Freddy,
be write on a slate figures up to twen-
ty. The boy got as far as sixteen
and stuck. The father told him to
go on, and beat him when he could
not. He' struck the lad on the :side
of the head flat wtitrli hies hand and
fist, knocked him down repeatedly,
set him up on a chair again, later
took the brcom and continued to
strike him, breaking the, broom. His
wife tied to interfere, but. he kick-
ed her, and she ran out of the house.
She tried to return several times,
but was shut out. She tried to in-
duce neighbors to interfere, but they
would 'not. Finally after two' hours
Vanstone' called to her and told her
he -had "gone : tee far." She went in
and found: the boy dead.
Mrs. Vanstone said her husband
had 'frequently abused her and the
children, and on severs'_' occasions had
attempted suicide. •
Dr. Bruce Smith and Dr. Clarke Di.
A, J. Johnson and Dr. Alexander
Taylor tesf4fied that the prisoner ex-
hibited signs of chorea.
Both counsel left the summing up
of the case to the Judge. A verdict'
of manslaughter was returned. ' Van-
stone will be : taken to Kingnton
next week.

the white, yellow and black races. 0
one seat a big, pleasant -faced negro
sat amid his luggage; ' a little way elf
two Galicians,. fn their odd hats wi ii
beehive crowns and turned -up brims,
nodded and gesticulated; and, on a
bench facing these, were a row of
Chinamen, cloth caps tilted forward
over their braided and knotted queues,
in their eyes a curious, blank look,
like gawky schoolboys.
Five races were seen, cheek by -,jowl,
on one short bezi, h. At one end, a
black -haired Assyrian sat alone, his
hat tilted forward, his hands in his
pockets, and his . legs stretched dis•
coneolately out before him; before him
an 'Alsatian wrote laboriously on a
piece of note -paper spread on the back
of the seat; next to him two Polandere
talked animatedly; next these again a
fat mulatto woman lolled sleepy-eyed,
her bundle in her lap; and, at the
other end of the bench, a Swiss boy
and girl sat side by side. Many stop-
ped to ,look at the last two, for there
were tears in the girl's eyes and the
boy ceaselessly and tenderly pressed
her hand, holding it against his cheek.
"They aro broth;r and sister," said the
linguist from the Immigration offices,
"family attachment was very strong
among the Swiss."
