SULY 9, 1888, LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

The Scott Act. Srr,—There has been some discussion lately in the newspapers about the exe- cution of the Scott Act in this city. I

not heretofore touched. There are un- doubtedly over one hundred ‘“‘places” in! Charlottetown in which intoxicating liquors are sold in violation of the Canada ‘l'em- perance Act, 1878. Haw many persons Sir, are systematically prosecuted under

VOL. 17--NO. 42.

Tortured With Hot Iron.

RORRIBLE CRUELTY INFLICTED BY A NEGRO ON A DEFENCRLESS WOMAN.

A story of fiendish cruelty, the details of wiich are almost beyond belief, was reveal- ed on the afterroon of the 3rd, in Camden, N. J., and has excited feelings of the ut- most horror, ameny the residents of that city. For over a year Thomas Demound, a powerful nergo, of about thirty-five years of age, has lived in ashanty on the out- skirts of Camden, with Ida Monroe,a hand- some young mulatto woman, who passed for

the Act? Nota dozen! Of these nearly half are women. another dozen liquor dealers even occasion- ally prosecuted. Now, of the great unpro- secuted majority, there are many who have mado more money,and continue to sell more eponly than some of those who are prose- cuted. Why, Lask, is this lienency shown? Have our temperance ofticers their favorites! Their energies are valiantly exercised against defenceless femalés, while bloated publicnas—old sinners—egcape. I do not defend women engaged in the liquor traffic, or blame the oflicers for upholding the law they have transgressed. But what I do most emphatically condemn is the policy — or favoritism if you will—which allows the majority of law-breakers to go scathless while a few are systematically prosecuted. The offence could be as easily proved against the former as it is against the latter. I could name off-hand a dozen unprosecuted large liquor dealers, and several witnesses against each. This in- formation should be, and very likely is, within the knowledge of the Inspector and his assistants, An explanation would there- fore be in order. Yours, &c.,

W. Charlottetown, July 7th, 1885.

An Interesting School Competition.

Sir,—A very intoresting competition took placo in North West Tryon School Houses on the afternoon of Friday, June 26. The teachers of the schools sat Mount Tryon, Augustine Cove, Albany, No Man’s Land, Cape Traverse and North West Tryon each sent in three representatives to compete for a prize offored by the Inspector to the best reader end speller in the fourth class. The room was crowded with visitors, among whom were the Superintendent of Education, Inspector of Schools, the teachers of the schools above named, and the parents of the pupils and competitors. To fill in the time while the classes were assembling, Mr. Montgomery examined the English class, and Mr. Arbuckle the high- | est reading class of the school, both of whom expressed themselves well pleased with the way in which the pupils answered, thus reflecting great credit upon themselves and their teacher, Mr. Danicl Fraser. _ The Inspector’s prize—a handsomely bound book, “ The Girls’ Own Annual "— was carried off by Miss Ada J. Symonds, of Mount Tryon district, which speaks well both for herself and her instructor, Miss Georgina Morrison. After several of the parents had expressed their regret that Mr. Fraser was about to leave them, he was presented by the pupils with a valuable present and a flatiering address, to which he replied in an extempore speech, Mr. Arbuckle deserves great credit. not only for going to the expense of purchasing such a valuablo prize, but also for trying in such a judicious manner to raise the standard of education, Everywhere he goes through the country he is fast winning friends, and we think there is no man better qualified

We are glad to hear that next year there will be a competition between the same schools for a prize offered by Mr. John McRae, merchant, of Tryon, to the best speller in the fifth grade. No donb! this will have a great effect in improving the reading and spejling in these schools. JUVENIS.

Open Air Preaching.

Judge Aldrich rendered his decision in the Superior Court, Boston, on the 3rd inst., in the case of Rev. W. F. Davis, arrested for preaching on the Common. Judge Aldrich ordered the jury to find Mr. Davis guilty on the ground that the ques- tion was one of law entirely. He declared that the question has nothing to do with the right of free speech or preaching the Gospel. Judge Aldrich could not doubt that the city had a perfect right to make such provision for the preservation of the Common as it might deem necessary. The provision was not made to prevent the freedom of speech or public worship, but to preserve order on the Common. Mr. Davis has appealed. The case of Rev. H. L. Hastings was continued ; that of Silas W. Peckham was placed on file, the defendant pleading nolo contendere, end. the case of Mr. Peterson was defaulted.

Revolution and Religion.

Pere Hyacinthe lectured in Paris on the 3rd, on the ‘Secularization of the Pan- theon.” He protested against the abolition of the cross and the attempt to create anta- gonism between the spirit of revolution and the spirit of religion. The building itself formed a cross, and it was useless to try to alter it by removing the cross from the summit. He advised the Government to follow the English example in regard to Westminster Abbey, not to enquire into the orthodoxy of the great men buried there. In spite of all efforts the Pantheon would remain the consecrated sanctuary of France’s greatness. The address was a splendid oratorical effort. Pere Hyacinthe was continually interrupted by the wildly excited audience.

his wife among the colored people that re- side in that vicinity. Demound’s business was that of a policy writer and he acted as azent for the heavy policy backers of Phila- delphia, bringing them considerable bygi- ness from the negroes of Camden. He was known as a man of strong temper, and was greatly dreaded by his neighbors, when under the influence of liquor. On the night of Thursday, June 25, he came home in a quarrelsome humor and demanded of his mistress the name of another man, who was also writing policy among the Camden negroes, This business rival is thought to be a cousin of the woman’s, and refnsed to disclose his name. The man then knocked her down and bound her hand and foot, in which condition she remained all night. On tho following morning he unloosened the bonds and left the house, but on re- turning at night and being again refused the information he wished, beat the woman cruelly, and, tying her up as before, threw her into the corner,where she lay in an un- conscious condition all night, On Saturday morning, the 27th, the fiend threatened the woman with death, unless she disclosed the name of his rival, but she was obstinate and dared him to do his worst.

TORTURED WITH HOT IRON,

This seemed to infuriate the man to the verge of madness, and, hurling her to the floor, he bound her with ropes and then forced a gag formed of a stick which almost tore her jaw asunder into her mouth, and, while she lay moaning in agony, heated a fiatiron, with which he seared her flesh in twenty places. Not satislied with this sickening revenge, the wretch procured a quantity of oil of vitriwl and poured it over the woman’s already cruelly tortured body, which had heen denuded of clothing. In this terrible con- dition he left her and hurried away, it is believed to New York where the police are searching for hir.

SUFFERING GREAT AGONY,

The unfortunate victim lay on the floor of the shanty all day unable to move hand or foot‘and suffering indescribable agony. At five o'clock in the afternoon a female cousin named Mrs. Rice, who also lives in Comden, called to see her and wes horrified to find the women in a state which Dr. J. W. Douglas, who was at once called in, says was too terrible to bear a detailed description. She was utter- ly unable to speak, and it was several days before she could tell the story of her para- mour’s brutality. On being found she was removed to her cousin’s house, and the mat- ter kept quiet in the hopes that Demound would return and fall into the hands of the police, who were on the lookout for him. He has not been seen, however, and is sup- posed to be hiding somewhere in New York. On Wednesday last the doctor permitied the woman to be removed to thu house of her sister in New York,where she now lics in a precarious condition. Had she not heen a woman of great bodily strength and the most robust constitution she would have died before being found on the afternoon of June 27.

| The Harl of Aylesford.

A short time ago Edith, Countess of Aylesford, the widow of Heneage Finch, the seventh Earl of Aylesford, made appli- cation to the Lords’ Committee for Privi- leges for and on behalf of Guy Bertrand, claiming to be eighth Earl of Aylesford and Baron Guernsey. The Countess in her petition asked their lordships that she might be allowed to appear as ‘“‘guardian | and next friend” to her infant son, Guy Bertrand, and in opposition to the claim of Hon. Charles Wightwick Finch to the titles, honors and dignities of Earl of Aylesford and Guernsey. The hearing in the case took place on the 2nd inst., and the House of Lords gave their decision. it is im favor of the claim of Mr. Finch, a brother of the late Earl. The Countess, it is held, failed to prove the legitimacy of her infant son, Guy Bertrand.

cwviessvijpiengillltia titted iastineneniniet A Sad Accident.

A very sad and fatal accident occurred at Cross Creek, on the Miramichie valley rail- way, twenty-five miles from Fredericton, on the 6th inst., by which Conductor a Robinson lost his life. In coupling cars he fell between them, and two wheels i over the lower part of his body, inflicting terrible wounds. The injured man, in charge of George 8. Miller, was put on board the train to be brought to his home at Gibson, but when sixteen miles from the city he died.

i a Accommodating.

The London, Ont., Free Press tells of a well-known commission merchant, living in the northern part of that city, who, before leaving for atrip with his family, posted up in the hallway the following notice :—‘* To burglare—There are no valuable in the house, and nothing locked up. There are good liquors in the cellar and crackers and cheese in the kitchen.”
