of George Peters, jumped from bed on

aroused. Most of them were on the up-

OTTERVILLB'B SENSATION.

Otterville is still in a ferment of ex-
citement over the arrest of Rohe. Pearce
and wife on a charge of poiaoniag. Their
alleged victim was Henry Vataiokle,who
kept • hotel hen. Vanaictle was 50
years of age and Mrs. Pearse was his
wife. Her maiden name was Ivester,
and bet family live in Woodstock.
A year or so ago Vansickle married
Miss Lester, who was much younger than
;Tx her husband and of an attractive appear-
ance. Pearce was bartender in Van -
sickle's hotel. In the course of time he
aaluirel such intimacy with the young
wife that they indulged in buggy rides
and smiler amuseine•ata together. On
one . ccas they were away f..r two
days. Things went un this way until
Novrnrber 19 last, when Vansickle was
taken suddenly i11 and died. Then were
suspicions st the tune that everything
was not exactly right, but no evidence
was forthcoming to substantiate theta.
The young widow continued in the
hotel business and Pearce kept his place
as herteoder. She apparently found
meth consolation for the loss of her
husband in the young man's company.
The winter passed in leve making, the
result being that Mrs. Vansickle became
Mae Pearce Wednesday of last week.
In the meantime, Nathan Vansickle,
brother of the deceased, had renewed his

LORD 8T. LBONABDB.
Vie Vele, afikaar Rsser1N by RIs des
esstieeaeees.
London, May I0.—Lord St. Leonards,
whet is still w Breathed jail awaiting
trial fur his criminal assault on Mees
Emma Cole, becomes daily more obstre-
perous. He has up to date been unable
to raise money enough to pay for the
prison luxuries which he has ordered and
consumed, and his friends are fast de-
viating him as they become convinced of
the profound rascality of his sot. The
eminent solicitors who went (rem Lon-
don to his assistance when he was first
anested have been unable to soften the
committing magistrates into accepting
tail, and the friends who at first rushed
to his rescue with offers of bonds have
withdrawn all interest in the mar. It is
geesti.mable if the noble lord could t. -
day secure bondsmen if hail were allow-
ed. St. Leonards sews absolutely de-
serted by all his friends, and he new
thneatee to revenge himself urn the
nobility for his outcast state. His Latest
threat was made to -day. He declares
that unless he is rescued from his pressed
disgraceful position he will claim his
pnrilege as a Laren to he tried by kis
peen. This is • potent threat. If tslT-
risd out s.oci af.11y in this ease it wool
certainly remelt in a popolar ..eatery whish

of ell such remaining antiquated privi-
leges of the lords. The last time this
