Then a wea ligament in his ankle began to bother him, and he stopped after going six bunched in this order : Wood, Queal, Longboat, to eight and one-half miles where Wood and the Indian took a short lead on Queal, which they gra- {dually increased until at ten miles they led Queal by half a lap.

The village of Brighton was startled on Saturday when Clatence Vincent, a well-to-do farmer near there, leit his wife and three young children and set out bareheaded and barefooted to be come a convert to Holy Rollerism. His sullden departure was the result of a strange man's influence, one Syl vester Sabins, who some years age got his peculiar views from a seet somewhere in the United States. Since that time Sabins has lived in a tent wherever he is permitted to pitch it He lets his hair grow and wean neither hat nor shoes, in the place o which, he uses leather sandals bounc to his feet with rags. He goes abou ragged, dirty and sunburned. He ha a wife and six children and they i habit five tents which he has arrangec on wheels so that they can be movec ahout from place to place. This Sabins earns a scanty living by cutting lawns and assisting farmers u their fields. At first his wage syste: was to accept as pay whatever th Lord promoted his employers to give but finding some of them only ver, gently moved by the Divine fing: when handing him his wages, he on his labors a price of twenty-fiv cents an hour. He eats no meat and no vegefables, his diet being grain fish and nuts, He will not dine at the house of a farmer, but will go tc his tent if near enough, and if not will go hungry all day. this ragged-looking being with long black beard and bald, head, brown wit} the sun, has ceased to be a curiosity to the people of Brighton. On Saturday, however, when a good home was dismembered of its support by this fellow's teaching, the whol village was indignant. Mr. Vincent's two brothers went to Sabins' place where he had gone, and tried to bring him back without success. On Sun day afternoon, hundreds of the vil lagers were gathered to the place and the brothers had the constable get Vincent and bring him home. He will be examined as to his sanity. The village is much upset over the matter. A short time ago a Mise Oli ver, who lived near the village, was in fluenced-hy Sabins and she committed suicide by hanging. Ile never miss an opportunity of inculcating his pe culiar views. All the time the crows was there on Sunday aftermoon, he preached to them, but with little of fect, however, for there is a grim dg termination among the people to b rid of him, and it is whispersd that i the township does not look after it something may happen. £6 SIX ARE EMPLOYED. Where One Performed the Work in Years Fast. Addington conservatives are reap ing the benefit of the tory govern- ment at Toronto. On a reserve, in the northern part of the country, which covers about twenty square miles, six fire rangers are now en- gaged where one fire ranger -hither- to performed the work. This will mean an additional $1,000 for the 'work. A farmer from that section in the city to-day, said the govern- ment pay $1,000 for additional fire rangers, but only gave $500 for the improvement of roads. If the addi- tional $1,000 had been put on the roads it would have been of some benefit in permitting the residents to get to the front.
