The Oil Question Is Still Unanswered Oil still continue) to come out of the Karstedt well and its source is still a matter of conjecture. It haa been pump- ed to the bottom nlnioat every day for rhe past three weeks, but the oil con- tinues to coma in aj great a ijuantity as ever, if not greater. Last week Mr. Karstedt sent a quantity of the oil to the Department of Mines for analysis and the result of this report is awaited with keen interest- Tbe well is curbed, about four feet in diameter to within eight or ten feat '.t the bottom and about 3^ feet from that down. The curbing is now a mass o| oil from lop to bottom, owing to the pumping. On Monday the editor himself took a trip to the bottom of this well to nee for himself. There was only an inch or to of water in the bottom, the rest having been pumped out. At one side of the curbing the spring was boilin^^ up bnd a pint of the liquid fresh out of the ground was secured. When brought to the top this showed a decided layer of oil on the surface, proving conclusively that the oil comes out of the ground along with the water. As to the sensations of a trip to the liottom of thai well ; Imagine jourself shut up in a gasoline tank with nothing to breathe but g'ooline and }ou have it. A minute or two of it is enough for any man to stand, and you taste it in your breath for hours afterward, while it makes tbo stointch nauseous and the head aoho. A wee'i or so ago it was not nearly so bad. During the past week many strituorers have visited it and went away with a puzzled air. The thing is a connundrum too deep for any person who has as yet tried to unravel it. Wm. Coe, Cashtown. was shingling his barn a few days ago, when he slipped and fell otT, breaking his right arm above the wrist, cut his forehead and sprained his back.

Walkerton The immoriility that is rampant un the Bruce Peninsula is filling up the Chil- dren's Aid Society at Walkerton with wards and is giving the county a black eye that, in the opinion of no less an au- thority than Crown Attorney Dixon, the time baa arrived when an inspector should be app<jinted to coiistaiitly patrol the peninsula and rid the territory of these numerous cesspools of vice. Sec- retary McLennan tf the Childrin's Aid Society, who has teeu through that country, went su far as to say that there WIS no religion above the Sauble. Al- though the peninsula i-ontributos more prisoners to<tl:o Walkerton jail than any other part of Bruce, yet for one man that is brL-uftht to justice doz>-us up there escape. With such a condition of things right in our own country, It is a little presumptious for our churches to be dilating so much ou far away heathen and training their guns for long distaiicu shots, when sinners ibouud so plentiful within such close range of the gallant pulpiteers hero. Robert .1. Hornby of Wiarton, who was ariusted by Liiu police iii Owou S:)utid, was brought to the Walkerton jail liy Hgh Constablo Ward un Monday to await his trial before .ludge Klein here on the .serious charge ot carnally knowing Florunce Amelia B-innister, a little 8-year-o'.d giil. .According to evi- dence suVimitted at the preliminary hear- ing before Magistrates J. A. Chapman and D. J, Tzzard at Port Elgin ou Mon- day, Hornby was married on the 14ih of May, 1911, t.i Mr*. Binnister,the child's mother, who was not living with her law- ful husband at that time. About a woek after they wore marriod, Florence went to Toronto, but returned in the winter of l',U2 and lived for nearly two years with her mother and her sti-p-father, Hornby. The little girl in her evidence accused Hornby of frequently committing against her person one of the most heinous and indecent acta known in the criminal statutes. Dr. F. H. Wells, of Port Elgin, who testified at the trial, swore that he had exa:nined the girl and found evidence that she had been fre<iuently and most indecently assaulted. Hornby, who is about 41 years of age and a labor- er, was sent up to a higher tribunal for trial, and was remanded to the Walker- ton jail for safe keeping, â€" Bruce Herald and Tunes.

CAR LOAD OF CEMENT JUST ARRIVED THIS WEEK CASH PAID FOR BUTTER AND EGGS. i t Ml I A Grey County Regiment The ofticers of the lUst Regiment, Grfty County, have submitted an offer to the Minister of Militia to rrc uit a Regiment of lU.'O men to bo known as the Grey County Reeinieiit, to go to the front as a unit, and should the offer bo accepted recruiting will be commenced immediate- ly. There are lots of young men who have volunteered for servioj provided ihey can go in a body and be under the coiiiinand of officers they are ac<[Ui.inted with and be treated like ordinary human beinga. The ide* of shifting men from one regiinunt to another is a poor one and those otferiug themselves do not care to be among ooiiiplete strangers all the time. If the Militia Department look favorably on this offer this entire com- pany of men will be drilled hnd kept to- gether from the time they leave Grey County until ihey return unless killed or taken prisoners of war. Already a largo number of reciuits I ave expressed a willingness to join for aotive*ervice, It may be some two weeks btfore Col, Sam Hughes will be back that his consent can 1)0 ol)tni«ed. His decision is being awaittid with much interest. A Representative Wanted S -FORâ€" I The Old Reliable Fonthill Nurseries To sell in Flesherton and district.
