That was the last seen of the young nianalire. Ou Weduesilay morning he W.-.S found as sta-ed. The evidence would intimate that it wus a deliberate ca^-e ot suicide, and io> imiuest was considered necessary. Ko reist.n whitevorhaa bent assigned for tho terrible act. Death rau^e hove been almost ius'antancous as the charge passed directly through the heart. A Pitiful Case Little Jimmy, the 7 year-old son of Mr. and Mrs Wm.

It will l>e neces-sary, however, that th* invalid remain strapped down on a stretcher for a year wit-hout the privi- Uge of iroving his b«H.ly in any way, in order that the spine may recover strength. It may Uke two yesrs to effect a cure. The little snfferer is wornlerfully cheerful under the prospect cf a l.->ng and weary- iiig inactivity. He was brought home on Satarday evenii.g.

By pulling a lever all the straw is cut into fieil the same as was formerly lione by a cutting box and the blower will put it into the mow again without any other help.
