After the first shot (from a revolver at a distance of thirty ‘or forty yards,) the Clhiet told the dog it was under arrest for being balfâ€"shot in a public place contrary to the Ontario Temperance Act. Then he pumped four more into the canine, and his dogship passed â€" peacefully away waeging his tail. The dog had hitten a child, and was wearing no taz,â€"either offence being worthy of its e reward. Mr. K. C. G. Dreyer met with a peculiar accident some days ago that may have serious results to the sight of one eye. He had been making shavings with a knife and dropping the open knife on the ground he proâ€" ceeded to split a block of wood with an axe. Striking the block upon the end of the knife handle eaused the knife to fiy up, the blade penetrating Mr. Dreyer‘s eye far enough to stay there. Mr. Dreyer went inside and there pulled out the blade and hasâ€" tily summoned a doctor.
