Grave Robbers at Work.

THE BODY OF JAMES JOHNSTON, OF ANNAN-~ DALE, STOLEN FROM ITS LAST RESTING PLACE “IN THE CEMETERY AT .LQWER MONTAGUE—NO CLUE TO ITS WHERE- ABOUTS, OR TO THE GUILTY PERSONS, Some four years ago, James Johnston, a

well-known resident of Annandale, died,

after a long and severe illness, of scia- tica. His body was laid to rest in the cemetery at Lower Montague.

Shortly after the interment, it was no- ticed that the grave had fallen in consider- ably. But nothing wrong was suspected, and it was filled in again.

A few weeks ago, some of the friends of the deceased, while visiting the ceme- tery, noticed that the grave had again fa'len in. One of them drove a stick through the earth down into the grave, but could not touch anything that sounded like a coffin.

Suspecting that all was not right, the relatives uf the deceased had the grave opened up, when the horrible discovery was made that the grave was empty—that both casket and body had mysteriously dis- appeared !

Uptothe present writing no clue has been obtained as to the whereabouts of the missing body, nor to the reasons for its be- ing stolen.

It is a great pity that the guilty person or persons cannot be found out and pun- ished.

Westmorland Notes.

Mr. Thomas U. Canfield, son of William T. Canfield, of this place, is home visiting his friends. He shipped as carpenter in September last on board of a large ship from a port near British Columbia for France, and arrived there on February 19th, after a passage of one hundred and fifty-six days, and after discharging cargo they sailed for Philadelphia, arriviag in April, after a passage of thirty-nine days. It is very interesting to hear Mr. Canfield relate the account of those long voyages.

Mr. Edward McVitie, of Westmoreland, has sold his Royal Harry mare, 4 years old, to Mr. Essery for the handsome sum of two hundred dollars. Ihear that Mr. Essery remarked, after hitching her to the carri- age, that he had the best driver on Prince Edward Island.

The weather here is delightful, and the farmers have half the seed in the ground, and in two weeks more we will be ready for tea parties and picnics. Westmorland, May 13, 1889.

The Farmers’ Interest.

THE DOMINION STATISTICIAN EXPLODES COM- MERCIAL UNION FALACIES,

(Ottawa Citizen, May 7.)

I need hardly point out that if the farm- ers of the four New England States have less stock on their farms and less bushels for theiz harvest, combined with more acres of cultivated land, the value ot their farms must have greatly depreciated during twenty years. It is not uncommon to find advertisements in the papers like this one taken from the New York Mail and Express of the 9th November, 1888: ‘*For sale— Good farm lands in Massachusetts for $2 and upwards an acre.” Bishop Hunting- don, in last September's Forwm, stated, with somewhat of dismay at the state of affairs disclosed, that a farm in New Hamp- shire, yielding tifteen tons of hay and other crops each season, was sold, with house and outbuildings, for $52. In fact, so utterly disheartened were New England farmers that nobody wanted the farm. Now what is the cause which has for so many years been operating to the destruc- tion ot farming in the New EnglandStates? Mr. Wiman did not tell us. But we know the reason. It is that the unhappy con- dition of the farmers in the New England States is due to the fact that the Western States have taken the bread out of the mouths of the farmers of the Eastern States, If that is the reason, what sense would there be in the four provinces exposing themselves to the same fatal rivalry as would be the case under Mr. Wiman’s proposed scheme. The four provinces have now the rivalry of our own Province of Manitoba. Mr. Wiman in effect urges the farmers of the four provinces to expose themselves to the additional rivalry of the Western States, which has killed out the farming interest of the New England States. Our farmers in the four provinces will take care nottcenterintothat *‘spider’s parlor.”

Hungled Butchery.

HORRIBLE SCENES AT A HANGING IN OZARK, MISSOURI,

St. Lovis, May 10.—The three Bald- knobbers, Dave Walker, better known in Christian County as ‘‘ Bull Creek Dave,” chief of the Bald-knobbers, his son Wm. Walker and John Matthews, were hanged for the murder of Chas. Green and Wiiliam Edens on March 11, 1887. They were firmly of the opinion, up to within 48 hours of the execution, that they would never be called upon to pay the extreme penalty of a life for a life. Neither of the trio had yet reached his fiftieth year, and William Walk- er was barely nineteen years of age. Wiley Matthews, a nephew of John Matthews, who was also implicated in the crimes and was under sentence of death, escaped from jail December 28, and has never been heard of, although there were at one time rumors that he had been seen in the Indian Terri- tory. Every possible legal effort was made to save the condemned men, but without success.

The drop fell at 9.53 a.m. The ropes broke and the three fell tothe ground, struggling. The execution was a horribly bungled butchery. The men were carried to the scaffold again at 10.10. Bill Walker

struggled, groaned and was almost insen- sible. Dave Walker died in 15 minutes,

John Matthews in 13, and Bill Walker in 14 minutes.

gm About Horses

Another shipment of trotting stock to the Argentine Kepublic took place last week, the most notable animals in the lot being the bay gelding Plano Boy, to whom Peter Johnston gave a record of 2.21} last season; Sentry, 2.25, a son of Grand Senti- nel; and Little Walter, a Canuck trotter, with a record of 2.29}

The well-known English race horse Ful- lerton has been sold for $30,000 to go to Buenos Ayres, Minting and Gay Lad, that went from England early last season and have since had things pretty much their own way, will now havea competitor worthy of their prowess.

Buffalo Driving Park has just announced another,stake to be added to her already large list of $21,000. This time it is a colt stake for foals of 1885. Entrance tee $100, payable as follows: $25 to accompany nom- inations May 20, at which time the stake closes; $25 June 20; $25 July 15, and $25 Aug. 3. The Buffalo Driving Park give $500 added money. This is a good stake and ought to fill well.

Knickerbocker, a son of Rysdyk’s Hani- bletorian that has reached the ripe age of twenty-three, has been suld for $3,500 on account of the death of his former owner. He is the sire of Onward, 2.20}, Stephen G., 2.20}, aud two others with records bet- ter than 2.30. The sons of Hambletonian are becoming scarcer every year, and the blood which they bear is so overwhelmingly the best that it brings long prices whenever offered for sale.
