Strangled Children, Placed Them m Bed, Then Hanged Herself. A despakh from Lion's Head, Out., sfu-s: The bo<iy of Mrs. Thos. Pettigrcw was fuunil hanging tiead ui tiie kitchen of her home here by neighbors on Thursday morn- ing, and in a bed upstairs were the bo<lieK of lier two children strang- led to death. The children were a boy and a girl, Jaines and Ev.:e!, aged 10 and 12 years. From the i'ondition uf the hou;e it is evident that they were able to put up i:ome «K>rt of a struggle for their lives, but the frantic woman finally over came them, and by tieing pieces of thin rope around their necks they were sl6wly strangled to death. After undressing them and jjlac- iug them side by side in be<l. tiio Woman then tied a i>ic'C'c of rope to the bottom of the bed in anutlici- room. The end of it was put through a stove-pipe iiole in the floor. Coming downstairs the wo- man then tied the loose end around her throat, mount-ed a table and jumijed off. The <leed is thought to have been the result of iii.sanity brought on by years of illness. Her husband, a carpenter, was away from home at distant work. Cries were heard ff<om the house about midnight. Jloticing no life about the place, the door was broken down. TMO MEN Hrm IX WRECK. Froipht Train on the T. and N. 0. Railway Piled l:* in Ditch.

Toronto, August 21 (Special). â€" Toronto has every reason to be pleased with the success that has attended the issue made by Messrs. Cawthra .Mulock k, Co., of the bonds of Canada Bread Company, Limited, because the favorable re- ception with which it is meeting in- dicates that Toronto must have made very considerable progress aa a financial centre. Many of the larger liouses would liave hesitated making a;i issue during the holi- day season, but Mr. Mulock's fore- sight and courage seem to be bring- ing him the success he deserves. The favorable reception it has re- ceived is all the more notable be- cause the issue is being brought out at a time when the market con- ditions both in Wall Sti-eet and in Toronto are most unfavorable.
