BUT PLEADED GUILTY TO A | CHARGE OF DRUNKENNESS : | eens i | Case of Michael Kelly Adjoured for Three Days -- Cap Stolen From' Local Hotel -- Fine Imposed on | Citizen Using Indecent Languag-.! | When Michael Kelly appeared. bo- fore Magistrate Farrell, Wednesday morning, he pleaded guilty to belug drunk, but stoutly denied a second charge lodged against him, that of Stealing a Persian lamb cap, the pro- perty of Joseph McGrath. The lat- ter went to & loeal hotel, for sup- per, on Tuesday evening, and when he came out of the dining room he found that some person had purloin- (od his cap. He had left his coat and "ap on a rack just outside of a din- ing room. The coat was not touch- ed One witness, who was called, stat- ed that he saw Kelly with the cap | in his hand, but he could not swear! that he left the hotel with it The magistrate remanded Kelly on this charge for three days, in order that {the case might be further invest gated Wiliam Moodnufl explained to ih magistrate why he had disobeyed a summons, on Tuesday. He said that { his wife has told him that she would | go down to the court and see if it Was necessary for him to come down! {and then notify him. He was under | the impression that his wife would {have the ease settled. He was work jing and just as soon as he learned | | that he was wanted he walked to the | police station and gave himself up The charge against Moodnuff was | {that of using indecent language to his wife and daughters. He plaaded guilty, stating that he did not r | member anything about it | The magistrate asked the accused if he would go on the "prohibited | list," and he consented, stating that he guessed that drinking had been the cause of all his trouble The magistrate thereupon imposed a fine of $5 and costs, with the under standing 'being that Moodnuff would place himself on the list THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY | Hear® Lecture by ©. M. Barbeau About Canada's Indians' ! | The Kingston Historical Society as- {sembled in the mathematics room of the new arts building, Queen's Uni | versity, on Tuesday evening, jwas treated to a very delightful ad dresa by C.-M. Barbeau, who is con nected with the government bureau oi anthropology. Mr. Barbeau has had a wide experience among Canada's lu- |dian tribes, and was able to tell the good sized audience many legends, rayths, etc., that the Indians even of to-day adhere to as their forefathers did in centuries past. In addition to explaining many of the legends, My Barbeau sang some of the old Indian songs. These songs have no words {but are a jumble of sounds. As Mr. { Barbeau said they would not appeal {much to our refined method of sing jing, but nevertheless the Indians take [ te, greatest of pleasure in them. I'ne speaker minutely described the jonce powerful Iroquois tribe, which {was comprised of fine nations which {are now scattered far and wide {throughout Canada and the United States. Mr. Barbeau, on his rounds, has made a thorough study of the | different, types of Indians, and took | numerous photographs which he had | thrown on the screen. While some of | these were very uncouth in appear | ance, the wpeaker had nothing but the (highest praise to offer in their behali {with regard to intelligence. The In- | {dians on the whole are a very: super | stitious race, and some of the old cu toms to which they still cling en | ables Mr. Barbeau to carry out hi {work of securing and preserving them {asa relic for the government. Ther: can be no doubt about it but that the government is doing a wise thing in preserving these relics and | TWENTY-TWO BELOW ZERO | Was How the Thermounieter Stood on' { Wednesday { along sister Mary, hop along and similar remarks were pas- sed {rom one to another as citizens | burried to work and business on | Wednesday morning.

ANGUN & €0 Cor. Bay and Wellington Sts. The Whig was informed on Thurs- day that there is a man who lives in a cave on the north shore of Lough- boro Lake near Perth road. From all accounts it appears as though his brain was affected as the result of a severe injury which he received while lumbering in the states, where he went about three years ago. While engaged in cutting down trees, one-day he had the misfortune to be struck upon the head. He was later taken to his home at the north shore of Loughboro Lake, where he lived with his parents for a while, bu. later wandered into the woods where he has been living for several months. His relatives cannot find out how he obtains food for a living. They say that his hair has grown 50 long that it hangs down his back. The father of the man who is pretty well advanced in years, has become feeble and is afraid to have the man about, so he has notified the authori- ties who are going to send two speci- alists to the place and ex. irc the man and have him placed in an asyl- um. For a while the relatives were unable to locate the wandering son, but one day recently, a brotuc. hap- pened to be going through the wods and noticed him in a cave Notice H.
