A Pistol Shot Awalcens a Youth --Me rinds. His Pathos' and Mother Dead --No Known Cause for the Crime: Insanity Suspected Inwood, Ont., Deo. 20,—The usual quiet of this town was disturbed early yesterday morning by the news of a terrible tragedy. About six o'clock in the morning the son of Joseph Atkinson, general merchant, was awakened by the report of a pistol shot coming apparently from his father's room. He got up and made an investigation. When he opened the door of the room a terrible sight met his eyes. Lying in bed were his father and nlother,bo.th shot, the mother dead and the father dying. An hour afterwards he also was a corpse. .. It is supposed that Joseph Atkinson shot his wife while she lay sleeping and then turned the pistol on himself. No reason oan be assigned for the a'wfn;l deed, unless it be that Mr. Atkinson, who had been DI for some time past, had become temporarily insane as a re- sult of the illness, and committed the deed while in that condition of mind. Mr. Atkinson bad been in business .in this place for eighteen years, the greater part of which he was manager for Moore, Holmes & Courtwright. On their retir- ing from business he acquired the stook and store, and was considered to be in good circumstances financially. He was 47 years of age and his wife 45. Mr. Atkinson was appointed receiver of the estate of Holmes, Moore & Court- wright last summer. On Friday the estate was handed over to Assignee C.

Dunnville, Ileo. 20,—Three brothers named Hiles were engaged in taking out stumps on the farm of Mr. Joseph Cleves, of Wainfleet. Some one told them that if they used nitre -glycerine it would make the work lighter, and straight- awriy they procured some cartridges at St. Catharines. They said the stuff was frozen and took six cartridges into Mr. Claves house and put them on the cook stove to thaw. Mrs. Glares was engaged in the kitchen and three brothers sat by the stove. One of them shortly afterwards remarked, "The grease is Doming out," and proceeded to shove them off the stove, when the nitro-glycerine exploded. The house was completely wrecked. Mrs. Glaves was blown through the doorway and is badly cut I y pieces of the flying stove. She will recover, Two of the Hiles brothers were fearfully mangled and will die. The other escaped unhurt. Seafnrth: The remains of Mr. John C, Hoffman, brother of Mr, W. W. HoM man, and one of the first dry goods merchants of Seaforlb, were brought here for interment in Harpurhey acme- tery on Tuesday. Mr. Hoffman's death was very sad and sudden. He heti beep on a several weeks' business trip to Little Reek, Ark., fled feeling unwell left for halve on Monday coining by easy steges, When on the train near MVlbuut Forest on Saturday evening he was stricken with apoplexy, On. ar riving at Stratford he was met by a conveyance ands nedical assist:Ilice and immediately taken to his home, but only survived a couple of hours, rot having regained consciousness, 'l'he deceased gentleman was not of a ro' bust constitution but n0 particular anxiety was felt as to his condition. He was in his fiftieth year. YOUNG AGAIN. DO YOU WISH TO ENJOY THE INFIRMITIES OF OLD AGE? Paine's Celery Compound An Invig- orator and Life -Giver for the Old.
