NEWS NOTES.
Thos. Summers, an inmate of the asylum
at Brockville, hanged himself in a cowstable
While Alex. Amos of North Kepple, Ont -
was talking to his sweetheart on Tuesday,
to whom he was to have been married next
day, his ride, on which rhe was loaning, was
accidently discharged and he was instantly
killed.
Abraham Ross was arrested in Toronto
and taken to Stratford to stand bis trial on
-a charge of stealing m, horse and buggy.
Ross hired the rig from John Brothers• of
Stratford, giving an address that proved to
be fictitious, hence the trouble.
James Baker,proprieterlof Kanger's cigar
store, St. Thomas, is in a dangerous condit-
.ion, and his life is in despaired of, all the
result of a yoke. Mr Baker went into the
cellar to get some eggs, with which to per-
petrate a joke, when he fell and severely
hurt himself. He is very -low, and his re-
covery is doubtful.
On Monday, Mrs T. Russell. Brantford,
oast her five children into a cistern, with
the vowed intention of drowning them.
The little ones were rescued by neighbors
and were restored to consoiousness with
considerable difficulty, while the crazed
mother, who is suffering from a religious
mania, was taken to the police station,
where she hung herself.
The verdict of the citizens of Toronto is
in favor of a Sunday oar service by a mod-
erate but substantial majority. The vote
was for 1C,372 against 16,051 majority 321.
Such was the announcement made on Sat-
urday evening after the ballots had been
counted at the conclusion of one of the most
exciting contest that has ever taken place in
this pity. For weeks the chief, if not the
sole, topic of conversation upon the streets,
in the clubs, the churches and even in the
household, has been the Sunday oar by-law.
The struggle has been a severe one, One of
the most prominent features of the camp•
aign has been the active part taken by the
ministers,a Very gr5at majority of whom
went into the fight with the greatest vigor
and enthusiasm, and in the majority of
oases carried the machinery of their church
organizations with them. The other aide
had a good organization and enjoyed the sup-
port of many citizens who occupy the high•
est position in the commercial and social
world.
