Dog Killed by Wildcat A large collie dog belonging to Mr. Jos. Chesney, southwest of Walkorton, was found lying torn to pieces in the barnyard on Wednesday mor.ning. Asa wildcat has been terrorizing that n"igh- borhood for sume time, and was seen by ' Chesney near bis farm a few weeks previous, when a number of local oim- robs went out, but failed to bag the j pussy. It is believed to have been I prowling around for Chesney's fowl when the dog attacked if, and a biitfle ensued in which tke canine met a hor_ rible death . .\s the collie was a stent scrapper, and could give any of his species a lively argument at any tim?, the prowrss of the felirie in being able to scatter him in this manner shows tke kind of menace that nuiehborhood has on its hinds â€" Bruce Herald and Times. The Moonshiner Bolted Whiskey stills with a capacity of a g'lUon an hour were sezed at the faiiu of Allan Mcdonald, con. 10, Floss. Mc- Dsnald succeeded in getting away, but a W'lrrant has been issued for his arrest. Setting out from Barrie in n car, two officers reached the farm about lU o cluck McDouild, who WHS working in a tiold, cauiB to the house and when accused of having a still liniilly said he had one in the bush and offered to lead them 'o it. Inspector Fisher agreed to follow Mc- Donald while the other wtlioer look a look through the house. The farmer led the way to n cedar swamp and then he bolted. For about forty rods the otticer followed him and then gave up the chase, reali/.Ing that there was little chance of catching him in the thick undergrowth. Two olher stills wore also discovered on tka preiiiisss, a lot of mash aud five gallons of good whiskey. It is alleged that most of " McDonnld's Soecial " found its way to CoHingwood, At any rate, it whs c<>mplainls thai an unusual nun\^erof cirs from Collingwood direction wore paying visits to McDon- alds that led the innpiotors to make the search. Arnel Love Is A Mental Defective (From The Globe) The confession nf Arnel Love that he murdered his mother for which crime his father was hanged at Ow^n Sound, has been shatcered by stHtt'.neut.s made by liim since lie has beon under the observation of alienisls at the (jueeii Streat Asylum. The story lie told at the trial ha4 heeu compared with his confessicn ind with statements nindo by him since his coniinenuMit, .ml the doctors are now ci uviiiecd t'lal he had nothing to do with the actual killing of his mother. The doctors at the trial wore unanimous that the woman n'HS killed, not wi h u butcher knifi% but with a hunting knife, but Love slicks to his story that he Uocd a butcher knife. He told the doctors I hat he had revisited the scene nf the crime only once before he was brought here for obaerviition :ind that he did not think seriously of iho ciiine. From this statenieni alone the doctors are sure that the confession made to Rev. Mr. Sharpo was an " obsession whacU drifted into hie mind. There is on record a stiiteineiit made by the father to Dr. Phulan, coupling wi'h a general denial of the crime "a declaration that he hoped nobody would ever point a finger at the boy. " The father oroiested that while the lad was in the bouse at the lime, be was asleep aud knew nothing of ihe crime until the next inorniu!/, when he pressed his father to tell him where his mother was. From the confession made by the boy, and certniu peculiarities noticed since his conijnumcnt, the authorities are of the opinion that Arnel Lovu is a mental defective and must for some months yet remain under observHiion and treatment. Whether or not lit will recover aufhciently to secure his rele<ice cannot be decided now, but in any event it he is given his freedom it will ba cunditioniil upou his not returning to Grey county, where the murder was committed. The friends of Arnel Love in Grey crunty are still active in his behalf, although they have been deiiioJ com- munication with him. EUGENIA Many are taking in the X.
