ings were much heavier than for some
time. Good miloh cows were quoted at

mand was fair. Good export cattle
brought $3 to 03.25 per cwt. Good

CATARRH CAN BE CURED.
By eradicating from the blood the
scrofulous taints which cause it.
Flood's Sarsaparilla cures catarrh,
promptly and permanently, because it
strikes at the root of the trouble.
The rich pure blood which it makes,
circulating through the delicate pa's -
sages of the mucous membrane, soothes
and rebuilds the tissues, giving them a
tendency to health instead of disease,
and ultimately curing the affection.
At the same time Hood's Sarsaparilla
strengthens, invigorates and energizes
the whole system and makes the debili-
tated victim of catarrh feel that new
life has been imparted.
Do not daily with snuffs, inhalants
or other local applications, but take
Hood's Sarsaparilla and cure catarrh
absolutely and surely by removing the.
causes which produce it.

Goderich Township Tragedy
The Coroner's Jury Say the Fatal
Shot was Fired in Self -Defence.
PUBLIC SYMPATHY IS ENTIRELY WITH COX.
Goderich, Oct. 27. -The Cox -Beattie
shooting case still engrosses the atten-
tion of the people of the town and sur-
rounding country. To -day the coron-
er's inquest was opened, and three
witnesses, Michael Kennedy, Mrs.
Beattie and Lily Cox, were examined.
The evidence thus far goes toward
establishing what has been already
published concerning the case. A bit-
ter feeling seems to have been enter-
tained by Beattie against his father-in-
law, Cox, and the other members of
his family, with the exception of the
unmarried daughter, Lily, between
whom and the deceased there is every
reason to believe that a strong attach-
ment existed. On several occasions
Beattie had been known to vent threats
against Cox, at times going so far as to
say he would be the death of the lat-
ter. On Saturday last about midnight
the son-in-law called at Cox's house
and got his sister-in-law to leave the
house with him and go to his residence,
so-rre three miles away. This action
had the effect of entirely upsetting
Mrs. Oox,. the gill's mother, who be-
came ill from the worry incident to the
event, and the girl was coaxed to re-
turn, which she did on Monday morn-
ing. Beattie on Monday came over
and endeavored to have the girl go
back with hirn, but by this time she
had come to a sense of the wrongful-
ness of her action on Saturday night
and refused to go with him. When
she returned she omitted to bring a
portion of her wearing apparel with
her, and on Wednesday the father
started for Beattie's farm with the
avowed object of obtaining the cloth-
ing. The result was the fracas he-
tween the two men and the shooting
of Beattie. Mrs. Beattie heard her
husband threaten her father that he
would have the latter•'s heart's blood,
and saw him raise his hand and spring
at her father. Shortly after she heard
a shot fired and saw her hushand fall.
The story is told in the examination at
the Coroner's inquiry, which took place
to -day.
The Inquest.
The inquest was opened at the Beat-
tie place at 1.30 o'clock this afternoon.
Dr. William Holmes, Curonor, presid-
ed, and the following jury was empan-
elled :-Messrs. Jos,. E. Whiteley (fore-
man), James Hamilton, Wm. Monk,
Walter F. Hick, David ?rouse, Henry
Bell, William Lamprey, Chas, Spence,
Otter Wilson, John Roger, Simon Mc-
Culloch and Richard Chambers. Mr.
E. N. Lewis, barrister, represented the
Crown, and the prisoner's interests
were looked after by Mr. Philip Holt,
barrister, Goderich. During the ex-
amination of Mrs. Beattie the prisoner
came into the room in charge of Con-
stable Knox, and was very much affect-
ed during the recital of her testimony.
The witness also was deeply moved,
and it was with great difficulty that
she could proceed with the examin-
ation.
Michael Kennedy's Story.
The first witness was Michael Ken-
nedy, a young Iran who was at work
on the Thompson farm across the road
frorn where the tragedy occurred. His
evidence was as follows :-Yesterday I
was ploughing the field when William
Cox came over and told me he had
shot Beattie. I previously had seen
Cox driving in the direction of Beat -
tie's place, and in the interval had
heard a shot fired in that direction:
Between five and six minutes elapsed
from the time Cox drove along the
road and the hearing of the shot.
'When Cox came over he pulled up the
horse and beckoned, When I went to
him he said : "I 'shot Fred, ; come on
over and call Bob Thompson, quick 1
Witness called Thompson and then
went to the house and told Mrs.
Thompson. Mr. Thompson went over
to Beattie's. Cox then turned in the
direction of Beattie's. This was be-
tween 10.30 and 11 o'clock. I did not
see Cox any more. 1 went to Beattie's
parents' place, and returning, saw
Beattie's body about 12 o'clock noon in
the orchard. I know nothing of the
cause of the trouble. The body was
about sixteen or eighteen yards from
the back door of the house, south-
east.
To Mr. Holt -I have known Mr. Cox
two or three years ; have alwaysfound
him a quiet, respectable man. I saw
him driving along the road between 10
and 11 o'clock at an ordinary gait.
When he came from Beattie's to where
I was he drove rapidly. Mr. Thomp-
son got into the rig with Cox and they
drove back in the direction of Beat -
tie's. Cox was very much excited, but
gave no reason for having shot Beat-
tie. I saw no bruises on Cox's face.
The Wife and Daughter.
Mrs. Euphemia Beattie, wife of the
man shot and daughter of the prison-
er, was duly swot n :-I have been mar-
ried two years next December. There
has been trouble between my father's
family and my husband since last Sep-
tember. Before that they had been
the best of friends. My husband used
to visit there. My husband was in
Goderich last Saturday and got back
about 5 o'clock. There were Dying in
our house the hired man, Albert Lusk,
my husband, myselt and the baby. It
is on lot 28, Maitland concession. My
husband when he came home said :-
"I have Lit coaxed to come and live
with us ; she is my youngest sister."
He had seen her in town and had ask-
ed her to come. My sister had said
she did not know how she was to come
and bring her clothes, and he told her'
he would go in the night with a
lantern, when she was to come down
stairs, after throwing the clothes out
of the window, and he would take her
away. I said, "You are fooling," and
he said it was straight. I told rrry
husband that although I was willing
Lily should plait here, I thought it was
a wrong thing for hiur to do to take a
girl' away from her home like that, but
he just laughed. The man was outside
at the time and nothing was said to
him about the matter. My husband's
idea in going at night was to take my
sister away without the folks knowing
about it. My father and mother had
not objected to her coming here to
visit•for two or three • days, or even
weeks, at a time, but I understood
from what my husband said that the
idea was that my sister was to live
here all the time. IrI the fall my hos-
band went over to Orabb's to help in
the threshing, and he heard my moth-
er say that he would never save a dol-
lar 01 the threshing money, and that
made himaangr . After that he die -
continued his visits to my mother's, or
would sifnply leave me there while he
Went, on other business and then call
IAA for me. Ile had no spite against
my father at the time, My husband
hinted before about Lily's corning to
live with us. My hushand used to
swear at my father and say every-
thing he could about him. My father
never said anything against my hus-
band to me or in my presence. The
first cause of trouble between my hus-
hand and father came up one night
when my husband was returning from
a threshing. He went to m father's
place to get a drink. My father re-
proached him for leaving me alone,
with only a hired man to look after the
farm, and told him he would not be
anythiug ahead by it, This made him
angry at father. There was no ob-
jection by my people to my marriage
with Fred. Lily had never until late-
ly been prevented from coming over
here by my people, but of late some
objection had been made to her corn-
ing so often ; my husband knew this
and this was the main part of the
quarrel.
The Sister's Visit.
He drove off on Saturday night
about 10.30 and returned about 1 o'-
clock with Lily and her clothes. It is
about three miles from here to my
father's house. My sister stayed with
me that night and on Sunday my
Uncle Thomas sox came for her and
asked her to go back ;home. She did
not go. On Sunday afternoon I went
over to my mother's, leaving Fred.
and my sister here, and found niy
mother very ill. When I came hack 1
told my sister she had better go home.
In the night my,lUncle Thomas came
again and told us that if we wanted to
see mother alive we were to go home ;
he was going into town to call a
doctor. My hushand said it was only
pretence and said he would not turn a
hand to save her. He objected to my
going atfirst, but atlastconsented, but
would not drive me over ; the hired
roan drove me over. I •
found my
mother very ill and unconscious. After
a while she•carne to and asked where
Lily was and fainted when told she
had not come. She grew delirious and
remained so for some time. Uncle
Thomas wentto our place again, and
this time Lily came back. Mother
asked Lily why she had left and she
said she liked Fred. arid he liked her
and nothing they could say could turn
her against Fred. Father spoke to her
about going so,;much with Fred. and
told her people were saying they did
not know whether Fred. was married
t her or to we. Lily said it was all
n lnsense. I did not object to Lily's
in * with Fred. When my husband
earl of what my father had said he
hreatened to get Lily away from home
by some plan or other. Lily said she
was sorry for going away and promis-
ed to stay at home. I returned home
on Munday morning and my husband
said he would give we no peace if I did
not get my sister to come back. I
went over home to get her, but my
father said he did not think he could
let her go, and Lily herself refused to
go back. I had never told my father
that my husband had been unkind to
me. I was always able to do my own
work. Father came over here yester-
day morning about 10 or 10.30 and I
told him that Fred. had sr -id he would
have his heart's blood. Father wanted
Lily's clothes and I told hirn Fred. had
forbidden me to give them to anyone.
I said he would have to go and see
Fred. He went over to talk to Fred.
about getting the clothes. Fred. had
been pinking up apples and watching
what was going on.
The Shooting.
Father walked slowly in his direc-
tion. When father got within a few
feet of Fred. he made a great spring at
father and said with an oath that he
would have his heart's blood before he
got out of the orchard. I saw Fred's
hand raised to strike father, but did
not see the blow fall, Father backed
and Fred. followed him up and made
another spring at him. 1 heard fath-
er's voice, but could not distinguish
what he said, as he spoke quite low.
When the shot was fired Fred's hands
were near father's shoulders. I did
not see the revolver. 1 saw the smoke
and heard the shot and saw my hus-
band fall. Father stood there and I
screamed and went over to them. 1
went to where Fred. was lying and
said :-"It is too bad, Fred, (you have
brought this upon yourself`.' I did
not hear him speak after he was shot.
Father sent me back to the house, and
a neighbor camelhand took me away.
Father went away and in a few min-
utes came back with Robert Thomp-
son,
Cross -Examined.
To Mr. Holt -I have one child. My
husband was about 27 years old and a
powerfully -built young man. My
father was a smaller man. I have
never known father to be quarrelsome.
The talk about my husband and Lily
has been within the past three or four
weeks. My Sister is 20 years of age
next birthday. I am not yet 22. On
Monday morning Dr. Whitely drove
me home from father's and talked to
Fred. and gave him some advice. Af-
ter the doctor left my husband made
threats against my father and his fam-
ily and Uncle Thomas. He said he
would stand by Lily. He said if he
met father he would pulverize his
hones. He also threatened to leave
me and take the baby away. He did
go away, hut came back again. On
Wednesday morning he Continued his
threats. My husband was quarrel-
some and had had rows with others.
I have sean a revolver at my father's
house. He used it to shoot squirrels
on the farm.
Miss Lily Cox.
Miss Lily Cox said :-I had been for-
bidden to go with Fred. and had told
him so. On Saturday when I net
Fred. in town lie broached the subject
of my corning to live there. He had
been talking of going out west, and
said he would stay at home and give
up drinking HI would come there to
live. When I went back home on
Sunday 1 promised_ not to come back
there again. Fred. on Monday came
and asked me to go to his place again,
but I refused as 1 said I had nearly
caused my mother's death and my
father was fretting about it, I had
heard that p'red. had said that no one
could get my clothes but myself, I did
not go for them, because I Was afraid
he wauld keep me. Ile had been go-
ing on a.gond deal with me. Ile had
made any proposal to me to run
away. He wanted me to come to his
lace to live end said if anything binghry-pened to Huphemia he would tnar
me. I heard Pred, threaten to pound

I did not know whether father knew
of these threats. I was treated all
right of home. Fred. just persuaded
me to come there.
Shortly after 5 o'clock it was decided
to adjourn the inquestuntil to -morrow
at 4 o clock p. m., in the Court House
at Goderich. as it seemed impossible to
close the examination of all of the wit-
nesses at the present sitting.
The funeral of Fred. Beattie will be
held to -morrow at 2 p. m. The body
to -day lay in a small room oft from
that in which the inquest was held.
The bullet which caused death had en-
tered at the corner of the right eye,
and the features, owing to the gha fly
wound, were considerably distorted.
Dr. Whitely of Goderich was making
the post-mortem• examination while
the inquest was being held.
Goderich. Oct. 28. -The inquest on
the death of Fred Beattie was resumed
this afternoon in the court house here.
Coroner Holmes presided. The follow-
ing witnesses were examined: -Dr.
Whitely, Messrs. Robert Thompson,
George Parmenter, Robt. Lusk, Rich-
ard Chambers and Constable Gundry.
Mrs. Beattie had been subponaed, but
was unable to attend owing to illness.
Dr. Whitely deposed that Cox had
come to him on Wednesday morning
about half -past 10 o'clock and stated
that he had shot Beattie. Cox gave the
doctor the revolver. Cox was almost
frenzied at the time, and had severe
contusions on his face, which looked
as if they had been made recently.
The doctor practically corroborated
Mrs. Beattie's statements, alreadypub-
lished, and admitted that he had been
told previous to the shooting of the re-
lations that appeared to have existed
between Beattie and Lily. He made a
post-mortem examination and found
that the bullet had entered on the right
side of the nose near the eye, had pass-
ed through the brain with an upward
movement, and lodged in the back of
the head. This was the cause of death.
Beattie was a well-developed and
strong man, much more so than Cox.
Robert Thompson corroborated Ken-
nedy's statement and also testified that
he had gone hack to Beattie's with Cox
after the shooting. Beattie was still
alive but unconscious. He had known
Cox for many years, and believed he
would he the last man in the world to
wantonly do such an act like the shoot-
ing of Beattie,
George Parmenter was in the field
south of Mr. Thompson's and was call-
ed by Thompson. He went over tb
where Beattie was lying. The latter
was unconscious and died in half an
hour after. Albert 'Lusk was Fred
Beattie's hired man, but was absent•
from the farm when the tragedy oc-
curred.
Constable Gundry handed the revol-
ver to the Coroner, and stated that it
was in the same condition in which he
hadreceivedit, one chamber being
empty.
Thematter was_ then given to the
jury, who retired, and after an absence
of twenty -live minutes returned with
the following verdict: -"That on the
niorning of the 26th of October Fred-
erick Beattie carne to his death in his
own orchard by a pistol shot, the pis
tot being in the hands of William Cox;
and we further find, according to the
evidence, that thesaid-FrederickBeat-
tie was shot in self-defence by the said
William Cox." •°

Remedies and treatment by specialists only
gave me temporary relief until I was induced
to use Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder. It has
proved the one good thing in my case. In
almost an instant after I had made the first
application. I had relief, and a little persever-
ance in its use entirely rid me 'of this offensive
malady. I would be glad to personally recom-
mend it to any and everybody„ -Sold by Watts
