Some time Saturday night the boat house at the Lake belonging to Dr. Jamieson was entered and the boat taken out and rifled of about $25 worth of fishing tackle and other paraphernalia. The burglars re- turned again on Tuesday night, but were chased away by the dog on the premises, who gave the alarm and roused the campers. Dr. Jamieson‘ says the thieves left a lathing ham- mer behind with a mark on it so plain that it will not be very diffi- cult to trace the thieves, and it is possible that there will be some- thing doing in the vicinity of Wild- er’s Lake in the course of a short time. Since purchasing the lake the doctor has not been at all stingy in allowing the public the free use of the pronerty, both for fishing and "berry-picking, but if this kind of thing is going to kee'p,up this priv- ilege will be taken away. .As the doctor has also devoted considerable ward for his interest to have? his ‘ baathouse brORen into and. fishing 1 {fickle-Stolen. 1 has \ ery extensixe milling and grain- in: interests.

These children are remarkable in their rendering of character songs, pos-i. The Cameron Children Concert. Three cars were entered in this race, Hyland, Weixl and Rogers, of Regina. Weixl and Rogers stopped when the accident happened and came“ to the rescue. Hyland, flung to the Side when his Ford Special crashed and turned turtle, had, two ribs broken and was partly shunned. | Roaring down the stretch in the ' first race of the program, Hyland lost control of his car in the thick dust rising from the dirt track, and plow- ed through the fence near the en- trance gate. Watson and Lapp, dir- ectly in his path, were crushed, and, the fender of the racing car ground Lapp s leg through the wheel of his own car. It was all over'in a- second, and neither of the men, who were sitting on the fender of their car, had time to escape. FORMER EGREMONT MAN BADLY HURT IN AUTO CRASH ' A disDatch from Semans, Sask., tells of a serious injury to Mr. S. J. Watson, brother of Messrs. W. R., George A. and Donald \Vatson of Egremont, and also Mrs. John An- drews of the same towns-hip. Mr. Watson was a spectator of the auto races as the Semans Fair when one of the drivers lost control of the car and crashed through the fence and into the 010m] injuring Mr. Watson and another man sever.er Mr. Wat- sons leg was broken and has since been amputated, and the other man, John Lapp had both legs broken. The two racing drivers, T. M. Hyland of Lanigan and John .Wein of Nokomis were not seriously injured. The dis- patch says in part: Two more home and home games will have to be played to décide this series, but we are not informed as to what' dates are set.

Muir got a hit to first, stole second and advanced to third on a hit by Dow. Vollett fanned, and Burnett batting for Snell repeated, making two out, with men on second and third bases. Mountain was next to bat, and after winning his own game in the pitching box, it was up to him to bring in the Winning run. And he did; with a neat single. Durham scored one run in the sec- ond, four in the fout-th and seven in the sixth, being held scoreless in the {11stthir11,I fifth, seventh and eighth innings. In the ninth, with the game Durham Juniors put itover Owen Sound here yesterday 12-11 in the €return game of a N.W.B.A. semi- final game. ' In the first game at Owen Sound last Thursday, Owen Sound defeated them 8-4. The game at Owen Sound, as reported in the papers of that place, and the game here yesterday, was another exhi- bition of air-tight ball with the ex- ception of a couple of innings in the field, when both teams blew up and let in runs that never should have tallied. While baseball is'not what might be called _a popular sport here as com-pared w1th lacrosse, no one who witnessed the game yesterday could go away feeling other than pleased at the showing the Durham’s made against the seasoned Owen Sound players who are “born with a baseball in their hip pocket” that is, if they have hip pockets up in that place when they are ushered into this vale of work and woe). Durham’s pitcher, “Pete” Mountain, retired the visitors in one, two, three man got as far as second and the fifth inning saw them go and sit down in the order that they faced him. Owen Sound tallied one run in the sixth, but in the seventh and eighth grab-; bod off eight runs and tied the score} 11â€"11 when Durham went to bat ini their half of the ninth. l WON PROM OWEN SOUND IN N.
