Exeter Times, 1909-05-13, Page 31 -- LIGHTNING KILLS STUBEN TCONDCNSED NEWS ITEMS Another Was Seriously Inured on the Catnpus of Woodstock College. t A despatch (row \� dstvck, Ont., , says: In the severe ( lcctrieal storm which passed over the city late on teursday afternoon lightning struck and killed James Merrigold, aged 15, of llanti!ten. Ettgar Knight, aged 18, of Burk's l a!h.. was also st ruck, and for a tinte it was thought that he was fetidly injured. Ile re• vived, however, and at night was pronounced out of danger. Both young men were students of Wood- stock College, and were on the campus when the tragedy occurred. An inter -year football snatch was in progress when the storm came up, about 5.30 o'cloclt, and a confer- ence took place as to whether or toot the game should be postponed. Meat of the boys, together with a number of spectators, took shelter under n tree on the campus. When it was decided to postpone the game, all but Merrigold and Knight ran for the building. The two lads remained under the tree. The players had just reached the cullege building when a bolt struck young I1errigold and his companion. Seeing their plight, the buys rushed out and brought the lads in. Mer- rigold only lived a short time, and it was only by the utmost effort by the doctors that Knight's life was saved. The tree under which they were standing was not struck. The dead lad was a son of Robt. Mer- rigold. of Hamilton, formerly of this city. LORD SIIOLTO IS FREE. -- Wile (liarged With Shooting With Weil( to Kill. A despatch from Nelsen, B.C., says: The Grand Jury on Tuesday returned "no bill.' in the case of Lord Sholto Douglas, who was charged with shooting with intent to kill James B. Rowlands, a neigh- bor. The shooting occurred nt Creston, where both lived, last September. Lord Sholto, return- ing home ono day from a hunting trip, it is said, tumid Rowlands in the house decidedly the wars© for liquor. Lady Douglas was in the house at the time. Previously to this Douglas had forbidden Row - leads the house, and had particu- larly ordered him not to bring in any liquor. On this occasion, it appears, be ordered Rowlands out, but he refused to go, whereupon Douglas went to a. neighbor's, got a gun, and returned and shot Row - lends. The action of the Grand Jury has been received with a gond deal of satisfaction by the people generally. TOWN iN ALGOMA BURNED.

A despatch from Montreal says: Notice was received on Wednesday by the transportation bureau of the Board of Trade that the Railway .l,t►lrltissiepi has passed an order fixing a maximum rate of $3 per ear fur changing the destination of curs in transit. The railways some time ago increased the charge for this to a cent a hundreds pounds, which carne to from $5 to $9 per car, and the shippers complained to the commission. The latter decided that the railways had no right to base their charge on the value of the service to the cutsomer, but on the cost. of the work to thein, and. reduced the rate to a uniform charge of $3, much to the jubilation of the shippers. + ELECTRIFY SECTION OF G.T.P. .In Important Project is Now Under Consideration. A despatoh from Montreal says: The question of the electrification of the Grand Trunk Pacific or Na- tional Transcontinental Railway, from the St. Lawrence River to Moncton, is now under the serious consideration of the Railway Com- mittee, the Dominion Government and the New Brunswick Cabinet.

A thrilling account of the murder of Mr. Brooke, an Englishman who was killed ou the Lolo border of Western China, is contained in a letter written by a fellow -traveller, and published in The London Times. Mr. Brooke arrived at Ningyu- enfu, a prefeeturul city in Szy- chuan, situated on the border of territory marked on the claps as the country of the lndopendeut Lolos, en December 4. He decided to make a short trip to the Lolo bor- der, and left, accompanied only by two interpreters and three coolies. Nu news was received from him, and spies were sent out, who re- turned with the account of the tragedy, related iu the letter as fel- lows: Brooke left here on December 4 and went north a few miles and slept in a house.
