and allowed to run back towards the level track. Before they reached it, however, they came in collision with an ordinary

Poor Shooting on Both Sides,

Hawirax, June 12,

The peuple along the line of the I. C. R. between Windsor Junction and Shubenaca- die, are greatly excited over the recent burglary of the post ottice and robbery of registered letters. Armed bands of search- ers are in pursuit. Four men a;peared at Milford last midnight with the apparent intention of taking the Canadian Pacific express for Halifax. The searchers sudden- ly appeared and ordered the strangers to throw up their hands. They refused, and the vigilantes opened fire on them, The fire was returned from revolvers. After firing thirty shots the burglars ran for the woods and escaped. They dropped a bag of burglarstools. One of the yang was arrested while getting dinner in a farm house to-day. He madea full confession and gave descriptions of his confederates. This is believed to be the same gang who created a reign of terror in portions of Nova Scotia by daring burglaries the last

ANTI-JESUIT CONVENTION.

—— |

A NOISY GATHERING.

_ Ss

Toronto, June 11. ,

The anti-Jesuit Convention finished its labors to-day. The session at times was a stormy one and the speakers were unable often to make themselves heard. In fact, Dr. Caven at the opening of the afternoon session had to ask a fair hearing for the speakers. A good deal of the time of the meeting wastaken up with the separate schools question, which system was vigor- ously denounced asa standing menace tocivil and religious rights, but a motion to this effect was voted down. The Montreal de- legates opposed it, and informed the Con- vention that any resolution towards the abolition of the separate school system would be dealing a cruel blow at the Pro- testant minority in Quebec. Rev. Dr. Douglas, of Montreal, stated that the Pro- textants of Quebec would be with Ontario in spite of the Jesuits and the devil. Geo. Stevens, of Montreal charged that there was a well defined plan for the absorption of the Province of Ontario into the States of Maine and New Hampshire and Con- uecticut by French Canadians. Several resolutions of minor importance were pass- ed. The upshot of the meeting will pro- bably be that an extensively signed peti- tion will be forwarded to the Governor General praying for the disallowance of the bill, or the dissolution of Parliameut, if this be refused to carry the matter to the Throne.
