' For some time past there has been agitation in progress, especially at North ay, to secure thetrial of Arthur Wilde, of Cochrane, held on the charâ€" ge of murdering his wife on July 12th last. It has been claimed that Wilde desires a disposal of the case as the suspense is proving a burden to him. He attacked his wife after finding her in what he thought to be a compromisâ€" ing situation. She died from the inâ€" juries sustained. Wilde gave himself up to the authorities immediately afâ€" ter the tragedy. The other man in the case, a prospector named Wells, is held as a material witness. ‘The case was to have been tried at the Fall Assizes last year, ‘but owing to the destruction of the Court House in the Haileybury fire the hearing was postâ€" poned. Now it is understood that the case will come up at the Spring Asâ€" sizes to ‘be held at New Liskeard in March. (Mr. Justice Smith will prside Another murder case scheduled for the same Assizes is the trial of a Russâ€" ian or similar foreigner in connection with the death of a man at Iroquois Falls some months ago. This latter case is alleged to have resulted from a drunken brawl. A number of forâ€" eigners working at the Falls had a disagreement followed ‘by a strenuous ibatftle of sorts.. As a result of the trouble one man ment ‘his death and €Carl Kelenick, or similar cognomen, was lodged in jail to await trial on the charge of murder. ‘‘*BAFETY FIRST‘* AS APPLIED TO SUBSCRIPTION PAYING Cochrane and Iroquois Falls Cases to be Tried in Farmertown.

N.0O.H.A. REFUSES TO LIFT SUSPENSION OF ALLARIE An indignant reader from Cochrane complains because The Advance refers to the terminus of the T. N. 0. Railâ€" way extension as ‘‘Tin Con."‘ He adâ€" mits that the name is ‘‘Tin Can‘‘ all right but he wants the name changed. ‘*Tin Can,""‘ he says, does not sound very well. The. Advance has no real authority to change the name, but we strive to please. How would **Ford"‘ suit? It sounds better without changâ€" ing the meaning.
