Sad Case of Andrew Smith's. FamHy—Be- comes Insane and Burns His House,

Provivence, R. [., July 21—The state authorities have shipped Andrew Smith and his family to Nova Scotia, where they have a legal residence. Smith had erected a house at Moshansicut Park, Crinston, and had barely completed it this spring, when he called upon a neighbor and told him that on acertainday he intended to burn his new home. Instead of arresting Smith before he could commit the threatened act, the county officers let him prepare the premises for the fire and watched him while he was applying the torch. The house was destroyed, Mrs. Smith and her two little ones barely es-

caping with their 1 ves, Smith was arrested a3 he was leaving the burning

house, was indicted for setting fire to his home with intent to defraud the insurance companies, and being brought to trial was by the state witnesses, including Dr. | Keene, of the State Insane Department, proved to be incapable of realizing what

Smith was committed and his family sent to the alms house, as they were in des- titute condition. Smith’s birthplace was hunted up, his friends communicated with and his family sent to Nova Scotia. He had been a hard-working man. The cause of his insanity could not be determined.

A RATHER STRANGE CASE

A Needle Extracted Atter Being in the Finger 36 Years.

One day thirty-six years ago, Mr. E. Estabrooks, wife of Ald. Estabrooks, was sewing when about an eighth of an inch of the needle broke in the point of her mid- dle finger. In two or three days it sank out of sight, and during its motion through the finger it caused her considerable pain. Some years ago it became so troublesome | that she thought she would have to sub- | mit to an operation in order to have it re~ moved, but eventually it ceased hurting again, and she had nothing done to it. Avout three years ago it worked its way | out under the nail, where it bas remained | ever since, sometimes causing a siight soreness, but never any convenience. Yes~ terday Dr. Atherton, who happened to be in the house, had his attention directed to it, and easily removed it with a pair. of pincers, It was corroded a little in spots, but considering its long stay of 36 years in the flesh, it was easily discernible under

|

the nail for the past three years, but as it did not give much trouble, Mrs. Esta- | brooks never thought it worth while to | have it removed and just happened to | think of it when the doctor was in the | house yesterday. —Fredericton Gleaner.

SAW FOR THE FIRST TIME,

An Old Man in Pembroke Shocked by the Experience,

3lind people’s first experience of sight are curious. An old man in Pembroke,

sight by the removal of a cataract. When the bandage was first removed, the patient started violently and cricd out as if with fear, and fora while was quite nervous from the effects of the shock. For the first time in his life he looked upon the earth. The first thing he noticed was a flock uf wild sparrows. In relating his experience h: said that he thought they were teacups, although afew moments af erwards he readily distinguished awatch which was shown to him. Itis suppo-ed thet this recognition is owing to the fact that he heard it ticking. Thé b.aze from a lamp excited the most lively surprise in his mind. He had no idea what it was, and when it was brought near wanted to pick it up. When night approached upon the day when he first used his eyes, he was iu fright, fearing that he was losing the sight which he had so wonderfully found after sixty years of darkness.

Ontario, who was born blind, received bis |

interest. Thirteen years ago, when the present Earl came into possession, he en- deavored to sell his 4,000 manuscripts to the Government for the British Museum for $00,000. Mr. Gladstone refused to purchase, aad a portion of the collection has since gone into the possession of for- eign Governments. The Earl has, how- ever, made important additions since, in- cluding the manuscripts of the famous Barrois collection. A final effort is now being made to induce the British Govern ment to purchase the whole or greater part of the collection en bloc. The non- commital reply of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to a question on the subject in Parliament on Thursday, lends color to the belief that negotiations are in pro- gress with little probability of a consum- mation. Should the collection be distri- buted on the anction block next month, all lovers of rare prizes in. that line will have an opportunity which is not likely to come again in a lifetime.

THEY OPENED HIS SKULL,

Toronto Boy Undergoes a Marvellous Sur-

gical Operation.

Toronto, July 20.—A Toronto boy has just passed through one of the most ~narvellous operations of modern medical science in the general hospital. The boy is Charles Robb, who just a year ago on July 1 was knocked into insensibility in a lane near Ulster Street with a baseball bat. He wastaken home by bis brother unconscious, and remained in that condi- tion ten days. When he finally was thought to have recovered it was found that his left hand was useless and that he had no con- trol over one side of his mouth. In this condi‘ion be went to Winnipeg and entered the service of the Hudson’s Bay Com- pany. Shortly after that be was taken with epileptic fits, and went to the general hospital. He consented to undergo an operation, and nine weeks ago his head was shaved, his scalp entirely removed froin the top of his head, and his skull was sawn through. Then the doctors went right into the brain and removed several

the skull and the scalp. Robb is recover- ing, and he is now being visited by many outside physicians. He has regained the use of his hand and his mouth has been restored to ite former condition.

Sir,—Please allow me through the medium of your paper to say that I have positive evidence that I have by a certain person been quite publicly charged with betraying or giving away the Rev. John Goodwill by allowing a private political letter written by him about the time of the late election campaign to be printed and given to the public. Now, I take thi: Opportunity of absolutely denying that I ever did the like, either deliberately, un- wittingly or otherwise. I did receive a letter from Mr. Goodwill about that time, and by my letter I have very good reason to judge that the circul- ated one is nota true copy of any letter written by the rev. gentleman.
