Remains Found at Goderich Those Of Frank Lawrence. A telegram reached the city this af- ternoon, addressed to Joseph lLaw- rence who left this. morning for God- erich, conveying the intelligence that the body fond at Goderich yesterday had been identified that of rank Lawrence, of Kingston, drowned off the steamer Marine City last fall. The identification, made at the coroner's inquest this morning, resulted from the fact-that the marks of a broken richt leg. sustained some time ago by Mr. Lawrence; were plainly. recogniz- able on the body found. 'The rubber hoots which he wore were padded with Kingston newspapers, as the boots were too large for him. The clothes were also identified as those worn by Mr. Lawrence at the time of the foundering of the ill-fated steamer. The teleoram further stated that the re- mains were badly decomposed. If it is possible, the son will bring the re- mains home for "burial. ---- A PORT HOPER DROWNED. as Robinson Fell Off The Steamer Kingston. Tort Hope Guide.

One day this week as the car was leaving Lake Ontario Park, a drunken man clambered 'to 'the front and sat down. The ashy complexion, puffy eyelids, trembling hands and general appearance of the man. proclaimed the habitual hard drinker. The conductor, who appeared to know him put him off passive and un- resisting at the park gate and he staggered toward the side of the road. Somé of the inmates of Newcourt, just opposite were loitering near. One of these lunatics whose squatly ficure, mis-shapen © head, "and clumsy' gait in some way suggested the goril- la, spied the drunken man, stageering in his direction. A . great wavering licht flashed into his eyes as he look- ed, a hoarse chuckling laugh broke from his wide loose mouth, and he started toward him with" hurried reel- ing steps and outstretched hands. " A throat-tightening horror gripped the watchers from the car. The drunken man stopped and stood swaying slightly. The lunatic trembl- ing with joyous éhgerness pounced on him and peered in his face. Then the light flickered and died out leaving the whole man limp and nerveless, an expression of vague: disappointment. He: laid his hand gropingly on the driinken man's: arm, and the old dreary 'look crept into the poor wan- dering eves again. The bell rang and the car started city-ward, leaving together those two types of a living "death, drunkenness and insanity. Conferred With Machinists.
