W. M. CLKUK, FlosUerton A terrible affair is now intereetin^; the people of Chesley, and the Attonioy- Geiieral'a department is iiivcuti^aling. A ahurt time ago a young woman named Katharine KocI, died at llie renidence of Dnncan McDonald, on the fourth con- cession of Elderslie. It appenra that no docter saw her immediately previous to or after her death, and she was buried without a prope ^-rtincate. These facts camu to the knowledge of Cornor Cooke, of Waikerton, and he iiiforineU the County Crown Attorney, who iiiRtructed him to Ti.';it Chesley, have the body disinterred, and an in(|uest held. On opening the coflin the sight presented was simply shocking. The corpse had been placed in the colKn in the same con dition' as when death claimed its victim, unwashed and unclothed. On the body was an undershirt and an old jacket, and BtookiiiKS were on her feet, while a bunch of diriy raifes were piled in with the remains. The sight mad* the jurymen turn a.side and ask tt.eni8elve.s the ({ues- tioii, '' la this possible in a civilized and Christian coutitry ? " A post mortem examination was made by Dr. Stewart and Dr. George Cooke, jr. The dead woman was Katharine Koch, aii'l her painnts reside in the Township of Sydenham, County of (irey. She was about 3U yeais of u;;e, and h'ld the repu tation of being silly. Altlioiigh not in- sane she had certain peculiarities that caused her to be looked upon at times a.s iiresjiftimible. She was a nitlior tall and well built Honian. ami was asisterof Mrs. August Gobert, of Sullivan Town- ship. Last •lunuaiy she ariived in dies- ley atid some young men became uc- (piiiinted with and took advantage of her. She Went a\vay and had since worked at iVIr. TlniniHS Uearinan's, in Elderslie. She lift there about the end of March, and went to Chesley, where she again fell into tlie clutches of some of the partiod who had abused her before. On Tuesday, ;Usl of March, si'o went to McDonald's place, and remained over nii/ht. Next day she visited Chesley, with the de- teiinination, she told some parties, to take thu la'V on those who had assaulted her. That eveiiiiiu she returned to Mc- Donald's, where she was taken ill, i:ave hii'lh to a dtad child, and died herself on the follow ing Friday. The authorities have all the facts of this terrible affair in their possession, and a veiy thorough and searehioj/ inveslisjii'ion will bo made. . .o. • - - Sheep US Weed Destroyers.

The writer had ocoas-sioii lo watch sin ep feeding on various pastures. These pustuius weri siioeulent and choice, riiey wero sow.i tor the pitipose, and weie iiiiiidi lelished by ti.e sheep. \Vei:ds yrew among them more or less, and it i« a fact that when sheep wore turned mpon ihepe pastures from spiiitg to tnidsunimer tliiy Would lirst go fvir the weeds.

But in the latter part of tho seiisoii they would nor so eat the weeds The latter hecnme woody at nil early stage of linnvth after niiJsiinfiMier ; hmire the sheep would not eat them until tho other food bad been uleaiiffd.

The ch.ini.'e is a radical one, and in theory it appears to le all right, but its success depends alto^rether upon how it is worked out in practice.

Last week a resident of TProton well known in Dundalk was laid at rest in the Maple Grove Cemetery. Mr. I'hos.
