For some time past Ferdinand La-, 1- moureaux and Cleophas Lamoureaux, brothers, residing in the Township- [of Tiny, have been acting strangely, `says the Penetang Herald. In fact they were original "degenerates, and` their manner of living did not im- prove their"physical or mental con- dition. Of late they became possess- edof the idea or delusion that they were bewitched, that they were un- der a spell laid upon them, andwere haunted by ghosts,`hob-goblins and all manner of evil spirits. They were becoming objects of terror -to the neighborhood and particularly to the children, who were afraid to go to school-or pass on the road. :Ferdin- and was the more dreaded of the two as he usually went about fully armed. Sometimes hepbecame quite violent and particularly evinced an evil dis- position towards his brother-in-law,_ Emmanuel -Mailloux, whom he rather seriously assaulted. Mailloux called at the oice of the police magistrate next day and laid an information charging the two- brothers with be- ing insane and dangerous to be at large,vand on this they were arrested bv constables Parker and McLaugh- lin and brought to town where they were examined by doctors Spohn and McDonald and were adjudged to be insane and sent to the asylum. ` 1` I I !NlAGARA ONCE MORE] 35th Re_gt.

The late Mrs. Dusome, whose maiden `name was Claremont, was born near jOld Fort Garry, in Manitoba, came jto Penetanguishene with the Voyag- , eurs, and had nearly reached the- cen- %tury mark. She was descended from {the Wild Rice tribes of the West, `saw some stirring events during the Selkirk episode, and was probably the oldest of the few pioneers left. They settled near -the old cricket grounds, and her late husband was the rst mail carrier for many years to Holland Landing:-Midland Times. Visiting brethren: -W. Bros. G. G. Smith, M`. rW'ebb,.Bros.

Who is to bear the "loss when animals are condemned ? Two or three conictingviews were put iorward. One for which Major J. A. Currie is mainly responsible, is that the . ~drover is ground between the upper and the nether millstone. He buys an animal which to all appearance iis sound; when slaughtered it proves Iinfccted; the packer comes down on `him, and he has no recourse against `gthe farmer. It was asserted that :many packers iss_ue theircheques to %the drovers subject to reservation, land there is word of a `formidable `aglt21t10l1 among the drovers. l I I .I' [VI 1 `uJ\,_, ., --_ . - - . . - . - - - - - - - v no QQVIVIIEC 1. The Oppos`itio n,press ed strongly the anomaly that the Government takes every care of the foreign`con._ sumer and takes no. care of 2 the domestic consumer. M-eats which are to be exported are inspected; meats intended for the local: trade ~' are not 1nspected-'-the Government refuses to do so, when asked.`_ The inferior stuif is thrust upon the Canadian buyer, `the seller not being allowed to offer it to the` outsider. Mr. Fisher s reply was that it is the duty of local and Provincial author- ities to inspect the local trade. The whole subject was debated ' at length. ~ ' A Another view, which ~Mr. Claude McDonell urged, was that the packer is the man who loses. Hogs are short on personal characteristics, and when a number of `them have succumbed to the fatal knife it-is impossible to tell which was which, and who sold him to the rm. `Cattle have aJittle more individuality, but it is hard to trace a tubercular carcass back to the. man who sold it. So the packer loses. una- Whichever is correct, there is a considerable loss to be assessed somewhere. Major Currie put it at $40o,co0 a year. All `sides asked the Government to help defray it. P I Mr. Blain elicited`-from Mr. Fisher the fact that in Toronto there are _22 or 23 inspectors .and assistant inspec- tors. The Minister could not `speak as to the statement that the cheques i. to drovers contained a treser-V Vaon. _Mr. Stratton advocated compensa- 11011 to packers, on condition that .they compensate farmers. Mr. Mc-' Coig dealt with the case of farmers who dress their own hogs and sell them; they often suffer `losse T\__ (`,_,_,-I- L.,-_,__I_A_ _-_ LL- Mr. Fisher had no intention of. do- ing anything of the sort. The utmost he would go was to recall the fact that in England and -Germany a sys- tem of insurance prevails. Andvin one Toronto stockyard drovers pay a small premium to cover losses. \( 1`\ `I!
