Finds Skeleton On Island
Mr. T. John Bridge of Lion's Heacl,
made a recent trip to Killarney: He
spent two weeks at different places
on the Mountain Island, having many
interesting and dxciting. experiences.'.
On one occasion he camped over
night, on the. shore.. •
Next . morning he set forth in his
launch to exp]ore. Towards evening
he .cotyle upon a lonely island," called
Club Island between Manitouling and
Georgian Bay. As the sky was some-
what cloudy. he ran ashore and set.
camp. After walking around to his
surprise he found some human bones.
After closely ' examining 'them they
were found to be the skeleton of a
man of . medium height and build.
There was a purse containing $2.00 in
store checks, three ••pair �f soc1s and
a pair of moccasins, evidently showing
that the unfortunate lean met his
death in the winter.
It is conjectured that be left Mani-
touling, travelling on the ice and night
overtaking him, he hoped to: find shel-
ter on Club Island, It is more prob-
able that a storm had come' up, blind-
ing hini, Through difficulties, heno
doubt made his way to the island, al-
tnos4 perishedwith cold, and perhaps
weak from exhaustion, and had not
been able to erect shelter, but fell in-
to the stupor preceding freezing. i
There are suspicions too, of foul. play: r
Ie may ]lave. been taken there, bound
and left, the $`a.00 in checks being 'no'
good to his companion, or he may
have been robbed and shot outright.
The finding` of these bones caused `
the
quite a sensation' as there °were no '
papers or any marks whatever of:,
identification.. It is 'doubtful if
truth will ever be known.

One of the wonders of Bruce Ceue-
ty is to be seen on the farm of Chris
Weiler, at Formosa, where a flowing
well bubbles up from, 600 feet 'below
the ground and spouts a stream 20
feet into the air. The ice cold geyser
of water has been maintained et the
same volume for a2 years and shows
no signs of abating. It is located in
what is populat•ly known as the Pal-
ace Garden and is frequently visited
by curious people from. great •distan,

The Formosa Oil Company drilled ..
for oil at that place in rpoo and pros-
pects looked good, Mr. Weiler was
president of the company. One well
was drilled to a depth of 920 feet, but
was absolutely dry. Further down oil
sand was encountered, and then water,

spouting a stream this size for twenty
years. It is now the principal feature
of a beautiful public park.
which to this day bubbles about four
inches above the ground. Then the
1 second well was commenced. At a
depth of something. like 600 feet, wat-
er was struck and the spring was of
such magnitude that a stream 20 feet
high immediately shot out of the pipe'
'and has been. continued ever, since..
Mr. Weiler, seeing that „what had

pulverized it to use as fertilizer. He'
found that it was very beneficial to.
