The explanrtion of the registering on the second night of their stay as James Lindsley and William Thomson of Ottawa is that they were both addressed as "Lindsiey" and ‘‘Thomson" during the day by mistakâ€" en strangers, &nd that the names were wriiten on the register as a joke. Rev. Mr. McAmmond, who entered the false signatures, states that he was called "Father Lindsley" on /the streets of Syracuse, his resemblance to a member of the Roman Catholic clergy being very pronounced. Rather than use the title "father," he wrote "Jas. Lindsley" and also made up the first name, "Wilâ€" liam." for his friend Sanderson, who had been accosted as "Thomson. " Mr. Saqderson‘s explanation of his presence in what was evidently an cxtremely unâ€" Gesirable resort is simply that he was deprived of his senses by a drug which was administered to him in candy, and that he was taken to the place by two men whose intent, it was thought, to rob him. His detention in custody was, he says, the rosult of an outâ€" rageous action of a police official, who did not charge him with an offence, but who locked him in a cell to insure his presence as a withess in the court the next morning. Tic woman in the case was charged wit> **~ theft of Mr. Sanderson‘s gold wn(â€"i,â€"but was disâ€" charged, as there was then no evidence, nor as yet has there Lccon any forthâ€" coming that she ever =aw the owner of the watch. _ to accompany him, and the two met at Ogdensburg. Their determination to visit Syracuse was reached only after they had disagreed on Some other trips that had been proposed, and their first two days in the American city were spent in innocent sightâ€"seeing. The fact that they neglected to register at the Mansion T ouse, the hotel at which _they spent theiâ€" first night in Syracuse, cused, who, in the district where they live and are known. are believed. This is not surprising when it is pointâ€" ed out t both gentlemen have seryvâ€" ed nenrsaa quarter of a century in the ministry, and that both have held with bonor many important offices in the church. Rev. Mr. Sanderson has held his present charge in Almonte for over a year, and previous to that was sucâ€" cessively the incumbent of the Methoâ€" dist churches at Kemptville, Kingston and Centenary Church, Montreal. He is the father of a family, and in addiâ€" Jon to being a prominent figure in the church work of this district is known for his active interest in local affairs. Rev. Mr. McAmmond is also the head of a family, and has an imâ€" portant pastorate at Perth. He was formerly pastor cof East Methodist Churech in Ottawa, and also of the church at Winchester, in Dundas County. The statement as to the unfortunate eccurrences at Syracuse, as they will be presented to an ecclesiastical court next week in the form of a defence, will be as foliows:â€"lev. Mr. Sanderson, who was visiting with friends of his wife at Iroquois, thought to extend his" vacaiion by & short excursion to some point along the St. Lawrence. He asked his friend, Rev. Mr. McAmmond, The statements that Mr. Sanderson was arrested on a charge of drunkenâ€" ness, that he visited a disorderly house willingly and knowingly, and that the two acted in a way not consistent with the conduct of Christian gentlemen, reâ€" ceive a convincing denial from the acâ€" The reports upon which the charges are based come from Syrgcuse, and they have already been shown to be inâ€" accurate in several essential details. There is no evidence which can be brought against the accused, except that which is contained in the stories telegraphed from the other side, and it is, briefly, that the ministers went to Syracuse on exceedingly short notice, that they spent some two days in that city, that the names entered upon & hoâ€" tel register by them were not their own,‘ that Rev. Mr. Sanderson spent some little time in a house of questionâ€" able reputation, and that he was deâ€" tained at a police oftice as witness in a case in which a notorious woman, known as Pearl Ashley, was charged with the theft of a watch belonging to him. These facts are frankly admitted, but it is simple justice to say that the accused have with an innocent explanaâ€" tion taken away the ugly look which the story bore on its first appearance in the press. â€" ooo pastor Of the Methodist church ‘at Al» monte, came here and demanded an inâ€" vestigation into charges which have z made in connection withâ€"a w paid by them to Syracuse, N.Y. Advantage was to have been taken by the accused ministers of a financial meeting of the members of Perth dis* trict to present their demand for & hearing, butâ€"@ithough both gentliemen took part in the business of the meéetâ€" ing, the matter in which they gre so vitally interested was not meptioned ofâ€" fclally. Rev. J. Tallman Pitcher of Smith‘s Falls is the Chairman of the district, and to him Messrs. Sanderson aund McAmmond finally made their apâ€" peal for a trial. They expressed a deâ€" sire to présent the newspaper reports of their experiences in Syracuse As charges against themselves, and deâ€" clared that if any of their ministerial brethrenâ€"would draw up other charges, so that the whole matter can be airâ€" ed and their innocence vindicated, they would regard it as . nothing but a friendly act.

The tendency, as disclosed by statisâ€" tios, ru.wean to be towards a habitual criminal class, which meansâ€"a smaller number of criminals and a larger nuniâ€" ber of repetitions of â€"crime. With respect to the birthplaces of the criminals of Canada, the Canadianâ€"born show a decrease in 1900 as against 1899, and the same fact is shown Ih the conâ€" tributions of England,Ireland and Scotâ€" land to our crime. Criminals from forâ€" eign countries increased considerably. A diminution in Roman CatholHe criminals is shown. Highwater mark was reached in 1802, when the Roman Catholic erfminals made 48.7 of the toâ€" tal oriminal calendar, while at the same time the Roman Catholics formed 41.2 of the total population. In 1900, howâ€" ever, that proportion had fallen to 38.8, 1809.. The increase of convictions for crimes committed in cities apd towns was 193. Rural districts showed & decrease of 129 in 1900, compared with 1899. ‘The returns show that the conâ€" viections for indictable offences were somewhat less among the l;borlns class in 1900, compared with 1899, an also among the industrial class. ‘The commercial class showed a slight inâ€" crease. A slight increase also apâ€" pears among the agricultural class. The proportion of females in all convicâ€" tions for indictable offences was slightâ€" ly larger in 1900 than‘ in 1899, but very much smaller than in previous €nars, the average for the period {884-91 having_been 8.7 per cent., and that for 1900 5.8 per cent.

Thiy chow that, the Province of Queâ€" bec excepted, the number of convicâ€" tions in 1900 increased in all the Provâ€" inces, in comparison with 1899. The greatest increase was in the Province of British Columbia, where the conâ€" victions, making aHowance for the normal increase in gopulalmn, have inâ€" creased by over 23 per cent.

Some of these mounls, the Curator said, were constructed after the adâ€" vent of Europeans in America, as was shown by the finding in some of them Oof articles of clvilized manufacture. Some of the mounds were for funeral purposes and others for worship. The one just opened was for the burial of the dead. Reburial was the comâ€" mon practice among the Indians. At times the dead were left as first disâ€" posed of until the flesh had entireâ€" ly decayed, then the bones were tied in a bundle and reinterred. Such bundles have been recovered, and somé are to be seen in the Provincial Musâ€" eum. In other cases reinterment takes place while the sinews are intact, as shown by the position of the skeleton. Such an one was that just mgcovered, with the legs crossed and bent. The reason given for the custom of reâ€" burying the dead is that an occasion might be furnished of a feast for the living.

The plaster was knocked off the waill of his house, falling over and around him. Telephones were burned out in numbers, and also wires. « The employees of the Guelph carpet factory, nearby, had also a very unâ€" comfortable experience. One weaver noticed the lightning playing about the steel work of, the machine he was operâ€" ating, and moved away, as he thought, to a safer place. He was standing at a closed â€"window at the rear of the facâ€" tory, when he was knocked over. It was several minutes before he regained consciousness. Johh Brandford, anâ€" other weaver, working close beside him was also knocked down, but recovered more rapidly. Wm.

Rain came down in bucketfuls, and poured so for about five or ten minutes. Rain fell more or less during the night. At 8 o‘clock this morning there was a severe electric storm, which continued for an hour. It was heralded by a burst of lightning so sharp that it appeared to be in every portion of the city at once, and was followed by a heavy thunderâ€" clap. The heavy part of the storm travelled along the valley of the river in an easterly direction. ‘The residence of Mr. T. F. Grant, pumpmaker, St. Patrick‘s Ward, near the river, was struck. Both chimneys were almost deâ€" molished, the cornices destroyed and the shingles thrown in every direction. The clock was stopped at 8.10. The plasâ€" ter was torn entirely from one side of a bedroom which two of the children had only vacated a few minutes before: The lower sash on this room was torn out and thrown to the ground, and the curtains were fired. From the bedâ€" room the lightning passed down to the parlor. ‘The plaster here was also torn off the walls. Both windows were shattered, as well as the glass door in the hall.
