The mock trial advertised in a couple of issues of this paper came off last Thursday, and to be honest about it, we didn’t thinkg‘ much of it. If a play of any kindi Were presented by purely local? talent and the proceeds were all}! kept at home, the citizens coultli tolerate it, even if it didn’t come: up to the mark. We are quite safe i in believing, however, that the; local players here would noun“ think of turning out anything: quite so crude. Every local per-- former did his or her part well," considering what they had to; work on. and Mr. H. H. Miller. Who i acted as counsel for the defencmi saved the situation by giving ai fair share of dignity to the court,l and in his presentation of the case to the jury. It was the crudest; farce ever palmed off on a Dur-g ham audience, but reports from: isome of our local exchanges ledi has our permission to use this rtastimonial among-t nil . preu notices. , ll Get your wedding invitations at The Chronicle- office.

It was won by Walk-erton 18 to, ‘2. This sounds like a murder, though the fact that the locals were in no fit condition, and this was their first game, contributed largely to their defeat. The locals, however. played good ball at times, and had they been in shape to run the bas- es as they should, the score would have been close. Wv’ro not mak~ ing any excuses, though.

It was the 55th annual meeting of the pressm-en, and we feel safe in saying that for profit and in- terest it surpassed all its prede- cessors. We have not been pres- ent at every meeting since its inauguration. but it is good form to say the last was the best. It is certainly a growing institution. and every year it widens its area and increases its membership. The regular meetings were held in the King Edward hotel and at every session there was a large .and attentive attendance. On Tuesday afternoon the press- men and their ladies were treated' to a two hours’ .Sail on Toronhf Bay and Lake Ontario on J. (‘. Eaton‘s magnificent steam yicht. and immediately on its arrival at the wharf the whole company as- sembled at McConkey’s, where three hundred or more were amply served at a sumptuous banquet, tendered by the city of Toronto. Mayor Hocken occupied the chair, and the after-dinner speeches were widely varied, both in charâ€"- acter and interest. Among the toastmasters and speakers were W. J. Hanna, Provincial Secretary; J. P. Downey, N. W .Rowell, leader of the Opposition in the Ontario Legislature; Miss Marjory McMur- lchy, V. E. Morrill, o! the Daily iRecord, Sherbrooke, Que.; Princi- pal Hutton, of University College: J. E. Atkinson, o! The Toronto Star; Norman Angeli, the Apostle of Peace: A.

McCarthy and others On Wednesday, the ladies of the English observation cars, arrived at Lambton Golf Club ground‘ where they were served with a splendid luncheon. On Wednesday night, a train of Pullmans left the Union Station at 7.30 and arrived at Temagami for breakfast. After a sail on the lake they entrained again for Cobalt, where dinner was served in the mining camps, and the af- ternoon spent in looking through the several mines in and about the Silver City, During the night they went to Porcupine, and spent all day Friday in the gold mining camps. Next morning found the party at Algonquin Park for breakfast. After dinner at Scotia Junction, the party divided, some going east towards Ottawa, and others south to Toronto, where they arrived at 7 o’clock in the evening. HYMEN EAL ALJOEâ€"DONNELLY. The home of Mr. and Mrs. David Domwliy, Hutton Hill, was the scene of a pretty wedding on June 4, when their second daugh- ter, Alice. was united in marriage to Mr. Alex. A. Aljoe, of Glenelg‘ Precisely at five o’clock, to the strains of a Wedding march, play- ed by Miss Annie Aljoe, sister of the groom, the bride took her place under a beautiful ever- green arch. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. W. Prud- ham. of Durham. The bride’s dress was of cream satin trimmed with allover lace and fringe, and her travelling suit was of navy blue serge. The groom’s gift to the bride was a gold brooch set with pearls, and to the organist a gold brooch. After a sumptuous repast the evening Was pleasantly spent in games, music and dancing. i As nearly all murders are comâ€"1 'mitted in private at a time and 'place secure from the prying eyes Iof witnesses, convictions for mur- igder are necessarily based on cir- cumstantial evidence. What other i'kind is there? There is no other gkind except where murder has lbeen done in public or where the 'guilty person confesses. 1 As to the question of motive, it 'is in ordinary cases, possible to {find one. But if a man kills his Ewife in the privacy of their home, :hwo“ would it be possible for out- .siders afterwards to ascertain the motive ? We do not see that much importance need be attached to the fact that the evidence was circumstantial or to the fact that a motive was not established. There has been considerable dis- cussion about the execution of Love at Owen Sound for the mur- der of his wife. Letters have been sent to The Star from readers who argue that his sentence should have been commuted be- cause the evidence against him was circumstantial and because no motive was established. Some of our exchanges have taken this View. Those who argue in regard to‘ this case. as they do in regard to this case as they do in all other cases, that capital punishment is wrong, locally demoralizing, and ought to be discontinued, occupy definite and logical ground. A hanging revolts popular feeling in a town or a county only a trifle less than does the crime it pun- not see why any conscience should be disturbed by a doubt as to the man’s guilt. We believe any judge on the bench or any expert in such matters would have con- sidered the evidence amply suffic- ient to warrant conviction.-Tor- Ion-to Star. A SAFE GUESS. A .
