NEW MINISTER Price Ellison of Vernon Is Called to Cabinet <• WITH LANDS PORTFOLIO BELIEVES GOVERNMENT'S RAILWAY POLICY BEST MOVE EVER MADE IN HISTORY OF PROVINCE—VANCOUVER NOMINATIONS (Special to The Daily News,) VICiurtiA, -uct. U3.—Price Ellison of Vernon, who represented Okanagan in the last legislature, has been invited by Premier McBride to tuke the portfolio of lands in the provincial government and has accepted. Mr. Ellison arrived this ufternoon from the mainland und after a conference with the premier the suggested appointment was submitted to the lieutenant governor, who signified his approval. Mr. Ellison is u rancher and farmer of the Okanagan district and was the first to advocate the government adopting an active irrigation policy. The irrigation bill was introduced last session and the policy will be actively prosecuted under the direction of Hon. Price Ellison. . (Special to The Dally News.] VICTORIA, Oct. 23.—"I am convinced that the railway policy enunciated by Hon, Richard McBride ls the most Important forward move and the best ever made in the history of the province," remarked Mr. Ellison when seen by The Daily News correspondent alter the announcement of his appointment. "It has been received in Okanagan and upon the mainland generally with the greatest enthusiasm, and it ls lelt that the progress of British Columbia will be immensely accelerated by its adoption. The agreement is certain of ratification by the people of British Columbia as a whole and Premier McBride will be returned with a majority larger than the one he hud at the last legislature. "The, construction ,or tlie Kettle Hlver Valley railway extension will be of Immense value to my own constituency. It will touch Okanagan lake at Suminerland. Incidentally it will open up one of the richest mining regions In tlie west, that at Aspin Grove, where the valuable copper, silver and gold deposits have only awaited the advent of a railway to make their development practicable. The projected extension passes within five miles of Aspin Grove. I have the assurances of Mr, Mann that the Canadian Northern will hasten construction upon a branch line from Kamloops south, by way of Grand Prairie and down through the Okanagan valley. Col. Davidson of the railways engineering staff, will shortly visit the district to arrange for this connection. Nothing of greater moment to British Columbia has ever been proposed than the construction of this line. "I have always been a profound admirer of the Hon. Richard McBrlde and a firm believer in his politics. The position of the province as contrasted wiui its former condition financially and In every other way is the strongest trlBste to bis wise and progressive administration. I cannot express my pride and pleasure at entering his cabinet. I am one with him in his policy of preserving the land for the settler and the conservation of the natural resources of British Columbia for Its present Inhabitants and for posterity. "I am certain the people will endorse the government's railway policy, the forerunner of a renewed era of prosperity, greater by far than the unprecedented growth and advancement British Columbia has enjoyed during the seven years of the administration of Premier, McBrlde."

HAS FREEDOM Verdict of Not Guilty in fernie Case LOCKHART IS ACQUITTED FIRE RELIEF FUND TRIAL COMES TO AN END—EVIDENCE CONCLUDED AND JUDGE AND COUNSEL ADDRESS JURY- DRAFT SUBJECT OF DEBATE After two days'- trial, much of which haB heen devoted to an intricate examination of accounts, the famous Fernle relief fund case came to an end yesterday evening with a verdict of "not guilty," arrived at by the jury alter scarcely a moment's consideration. The result was generally expected and at the close of tue cuse, Herbert G. Lockhart, the accused, was the recipient of warm congratulations from many of those present in the court room, who shook him by the hand and expressed their pleasure at the result of the trial. It was nearly 6:80 when the evidence was all In, and Justice Clement then told tlie jury that they might go home, but were to return to consider their verdict, which he would be ready to receive at il o'clock. Promptly at the hour the jury was polled, the judge took his seal, and the verdict was recorded. "Let me give you a word of advice, Mr. Lockhart," said the judge in releasing the accused, "not to turn over any large sums of money in the future without taking a receipt." "Thank you, my lord," responded Mr. Lockhart, H, U. Hall and W. P. Thompson appeared for the crown and S. S. Taylor and A. I. Fisher tor the defence. The first witness at the morning session was George H. Boulton, who audited tie books at the time they were passed over to Webb by Lo khart, on or about Sept. 10. He said the entry in his handwriting and "O.K.'d" by htm, $11,142.28, represented the difference between the debit nnd credit sides of the cash, it was In fact the cash balance of the Items on that page of the cash book. He was present when Lockhart handed over the" cash to Webb. He helped Webb with the 'books an Webb knew little about-bookkeeping. In tho matter of the Calgary draft ofi $3500, and the Calgary check of $2600, he said, In reply to Mr. Hall, that if the $2600 did represent the Calgary draft of $3500, the entry made on account of the check should have been $3500. On cross examination by Mr. Taylor the wilness admitted that the entry of $2600"inade by Lockhart for the check was accurate and that such an entry -would have to be made In the cash book and In that place. Also, Lockhart could not charge hack the $3500 draft until it was returned to him and it was not returned until Sept. 25y when Webb had charge of the books. A correcting entry of $000 should have been made at the end of September. ■ When Lockhart called out. the figures when he and the witness were making out the balance sheet, Lockhart was not hesitant and did not appear to be figuring in his head. He admitted it would have taken an immense amount of figuring to cover a theft of $1)00. "But I do not think he stole It," the witness added. The witness was extremely positive about the balance sheet which they had made out, and which the witness. Webb had not remembered. The balance sheet showed the names on every check in the cash turned over, the details of the bills and the sums in silver and gold. He had not seen the balance sheet since It was turned over to Wehh. In reply to Mr. Taylor he could not account for Webb swearing that lie deposited all the cash he had received from Lockhart except petty cash of $15,03, with the coincident fact that the deposit slip showed thnt Webb deposited only three $1 bills and twelve $5 bills, among the rest. The cash tunned over had a number of $20 and $10 etng occupied for the first time in September of that year. At the time tlie postofflce officials as well as the general public thought that it would provide all the accommodation required for a good many years to come. All were mistaken, however. The development haa been much more rapid than was expected, so that for the past two years the postofflce staff bas been working under most unfavorable conditions due to the luck of proper room. The new addition will provide all the room required for the present and It is expected, for some time to come, although history may repeat itself. LIMBERGER FOR CANCER Chemist Says Strong-Smelling Cheese Will Cure Disease DENVER, Col., Oct. 23.—Limborger cheese as the principal ingredient ol a cancer cure Is the announcement of Philip Schuch, Jr„ a local chemist. Following the death of his mother, 11 years ago, from cancel', Schuch begun an Investigation of the cause and growth of cancer, during which lie asserts that he discovered that the basic germs of cancer are similar to those of leprosy and consumption.

Through the Interpreter, the Indian, Frank Kootenay, was sworn by the usual formula, taking the oath calmly. In reply to questions hy Mr. Johnson, the witness stated that his name was Frank Kootenay, the latter name being that of Ihe tribe. Fifteen years ago he lived at Kettle lake and since that time at Arrow lake. During the last 15 years he was engaged in hunting, and was also working with the white people. Previously he was at the mission. Usually he worked about half the year and then went hunting. He did not hunt all the time In any six months. In the 15 years he killed one or two bears and some deer every year. The witness said he had known the deceased, Antoine Baptiste, ever since the latter was three feet tall. He saw him some every year, but a few nvonths at a time Antoine would go home to his father. He and Antoine had been together very much the last four ypars and had worked together for Mr. Fauquier. On the morning of Aug. 15 last the witness got up at 7:30 and Antoine about 8 o'clock. After he got breakfast he told Antoine to get up, About ft o'clock they went to the road, the witness taking a gun In order to hunt and Antoine also taking a little gun he had, .25 calibre. Fra-nk's gun was a big one. A rifle was shown tn the witness, which he identlBled as his own. The witnesss said the two of thorn went hunting as planned but did not get anything, and after they had gone a mile and a half on ihe road, they came hack. When they appeared on the trail leading to tlie house Mr. Fauquier called Antoine and they b-Mh went. After they came back the witness went to the Chinaman's bouse. Later Antoine also went to the Chinaman's house and the Chinaman said: "Come here and I will tell you something." He also said to them: "Come. and I will get you something to eat." They then ate a meal. Antoine then said: "Did the liquor come?" The Chinaman, who had heen sitting looking at them while they ate, did not reply, but he went under and got two bpttles, with liquor In them. One bottle was opened hy the Chinaman and the witness then knew tt was rye whiskey., The Chinaman said: "I have written and I have six bottles," but said nothing further. Antoine said: "If it is good I will take it; if It is not good T will not take it." Antoine drank and then gave the witness the bottle and told him to drink to see if It wan good. He drank a little. A bottle was produced in court, a quart bottle, with an orange label, printed In Chinese. The witnesB said the bottle of the Chinaman was just that size. ■ After they had both drunk, the witness continued, Antoine said: "I am going to buy It," and paid $1.50 for two bottles, the ■ money being a dollar in silver and two quarters. After this episode, the two Indians went to their own house, opened the bottle again, and drank some more. Antoine then found a small bottle and filled It from the big one, and the witness took it to his tent. He did not take tho half bottle with htm on the trip later. He then returned to An* toine's house and they lay down for a while. After about an hour and a half Antoine said: "Let us go to Burton City," and the witness replied: "Well, let us go, and I will see my children." Antoine then said again: "Let us go then, to Burton City." They got Antoine's boat, which was a good one, but leaked some. Tlie witness to:;k cartrlilges Brom the box and put them in his pocket; bow many he did not know. Antoine also took cartridges and put tiiem in his pocket. When they entered the boat, tPrank rowed first, but after a mile and a half Antoine said: "I am going to row." They both stood up and then passed each other, Antoine going faster than he, and tlie shoulder of the witness hit Antoine, and the latter's hat fell Into the water. When they were seated, Antoine at the oars, Frank said: "Your hat Is In the water." Antoine said: "Well, let it be there. 1 have a better one at home." With Antoine rowing, they passed Mr. Schlag's place. Antoine was rowing hard and the rowlock on tlie left side broke. Antoine took off bis shirt, and tied tlie rowlock with a piece of it. He did not tear the shirt, but used a part of it, tying the oar to the side of the boat. They then went on and arrrlved at. Grassy point. At Grassy point both the Indians got out of the boat. There they saw a stake about 50 steps away and they both shot at It. Antoine shot only once at first, and gave his gun to Frank, who shot only a little. The gun was in good order. Tlie witness then shot with his own gun and it was not In good order, the bullet always going five or six inches from the mark. Antoine then shot with Frank's gun. When they were through Frank had only nine shells left He did not know haw many Antoine had left, but Antoine took shells out of his pocket and put them in his aun. The witness put five of his shells in his gun, leaving four in his pocket. Thus both guns were loaded. They then got into the boat again. Leaving Grassy Point, Antoine was rowing. His rifle was at the prow of the boat and Frank's was lying alongside Antoine. About 200 steps from there, they landed again. The witness did not know what Antoine was wanting when he landed there. Antoine got out first and then said to Frank, who was sitting in the boat, "come out." Frank said: "I feel a little sick." Antoine then repeated, "come -here." •Frank then stood up and went. Prank's rifle was left in the middle of the boat and Antoine's was still in the prow. The witness stopped three steps from the water's edge. Mr. Johnson paid a great deal of attention to the position of the guns, believing that the Indian had reversed them In his mind, but the witness was positive of what he had already said. In answer to his lordship, the Indian said the boat wag bow on to the shore and about three feet away. Antoine stepped away and said: "Do you see me?" The witness, replied: "I see you, and you are a good man." Antoine said again: "Do you see me." to that Frank said: "I have seen you for a long time, and you are a good man.'' Antoine asked the question for the third time and Frank again replied: "I nave seen you a long time and you are always my friend." Antoine then picked up a large sized stone and two small ones and threw them at Frank. Frank bent, and they passed over htm. After Antoine threw the rocks he went away $6 the boat, got the gun and said: "Her© I am firing at you, and I kill." The rifle Antoine took was his own rifle and not Frank's, and he took it from the bow. The ensuing struggle was acted before th© jury, the witness hox, with the rifle sticking out of It, representing the boat, Mr. Johnson acting the part of Frank, the prisoner being in the role of Antoine. With Mr., Johnson about five feet from tlie prisoner, the latter, as Antoine, turned violently toward the witness box, -dragged the rifle out by the barrel, cocking it as he swung it around toward Mr. Johnson. A change of roles was then effected, Mr. Johnson becoming Antoine holding the rifle In a threatening posture and Frank acting his own part. The Indian, as Mr. Johnson swung the riflle around, leaped forward and grasped it, the right hand on the barrel and the left hand on the small of the butt. He struggled for two minutes and then twisted the stock up and the muzzle down, jumping back as Mr. Johnson released his hold. As he jumped back Frank clubbed the rifle over his shoulder and started to swing It toward his counsel's neck. Mr. Johnson winced perceptibly and for the first time since the prisoner was first arraigned there was hilarity in the court. The pantomlne stopped here, and the witness stated that the rifle hit Antoine on the back of the neck, and the latter fell to uie ground, and lay still, He thought the blow came from .tha round part of the lock of the rifle, When the fallen Indian lay motionless, the witness supposed he had been stunned by the blow. He felt of the body and found the heart still, nnd the body rapidly growing cold, the stretched out arms becoming stiff*. Greatly alarmed he got into the boat and contemplated the corpse of his friend for about 30 minutes. Both Indians had taken off their shoes and socks while In the boat and were in their have feet at the time of the fatal struggle. A watch was shown to the Indian, and he showed how the hands were at the Ume they went ashore, and again at the time he decided on a course of action. The latter time was 3:45. Mr. Johnson here asked that the witness be allowed to state what his reflections were when he found he had killed Antoine, though it would not he evidence. On this understanding, the witness said that when he found Antoine was really dead, he said to himself: "Well, my friend, you are dead. You like to drink and you try to kill your friend. You do not know what has happened and I do not know what has happened." It was then he got Into his boat. Later he said to himself: "I will bring the body to the water." He did this in order that no one should sek what had been done, at this time. He was very sorry, for he had not been angry at the man that was dead. He looked for rocks and faund a lante one. and nlaced it in th<» boat. He took the body and stretched it on the ground. He felt in the dead man's pockets and found some money, nnd transferred it to h's own pocket. When he arrived at Alec's house he found thnt he had taken $sn, it was four pieces of paper nf %?.0 ench. Asked by Mr. Johnson why he took the money, he said he had beep drinking and he thought he would take care o,f it himself. Taking a rope about three feet long the witness tied one end to the wrist of the dead man and the other end to the boat. He was not,sure which wrist it was, but lie thought It was the left one. He stopped 150 yards from the shore and untied the rope from the boat amd tied the rock with It. The body would not go down and he raised tbe shirt, and cut the body on the stomach with one downward cut. about four inches long. The bodv was clothed In trousers, shirt and tinder trousers. The trousers were buttoned. After the noon recess, the examination of .the prisoner was continued. In answer to Mr, Johnson, the prisoner said he was near to Antoine when he struck the latter. When he wrested the gun from Antoine, the latter fell on his hands and then rose and said: "I'll ! kill you, I'll kill you." When Antoine said this, his eyes were very bad and thrust himself in a fighting position toward Frank. His face also flushed as red as the color of the witness box. The boat was about four steps away from the scene of the struggle. Tying the rope to the dead man's wrist, he towed the body 15.0 yards out into the lake and then time on the rock and threw the rock Into the lake. The body did not sink and he then pulled up the shirt from the stomach and made a cut in the body so it would sink. He put the body into the water so no one would see it. It hurt him to see his friend for a long time, so he put htm into the water. Later he threw An- tatne's rifle into the water. Rowing up the lake, tlie prisoner got out at the point below Burton (Cariboo) He had half a bottle of whsleky then. He and Antoine had drunk perhaps 10 times, perhaps 20 times, not counting the drinks In the Chinaman's cabin. Antoine had the bottle and always drank first. The prisoner drank after Antoine each time and as often as Antoine did He drank no whiskey after lowering the body of Antoine into the water, and when he arrived at Burton he was sober. The leaky boat was responsible for the bills he had taken from Antoine's clothes becoming wet, as the water washed back and forth as he rowed. He dried the bills before Ihe fire, at Cariboo, as Ann Kootenay, one of the crown witnesses, had described. At Cariboo he called his brother, Louis, twice. He satd: "Here are the coat and the shoes of Antoine. I put them outside of your house." He told Louis that Antoine had gone hack to Fauquier's from Grassy point. HIb reason for telling Louis that was so that Loiii8 should not find out right away, and be sorry. He then w4nt to the house of Alec. Christie at Burton and they all spent the, night at the camp. The next morning he went to the store and bought food for his chil- AFTER SUFFERING TENYEARS Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable-Compound KUblton,N.J.—I feel that LydiaE.

He and Alec and two other boys finished the bottle of liquor Sunday night. He stayed at Burton till noon on Monday, when Alec said, "Let us go to Castlegar." They got on the boat and went down tiie lake, passing Fauquier's ranch. Before leaving Burton lie imt Antoine's coat and shoes In a sack and at the ranch lie gave these to Fauquier, saying, "Here are the coat and the shoes of Antoine." Fauquier asked him where Antoine was and he told him Antoine cume back. He told Fauquier he was going to Castlegar. He was going away because lie was afraid Fauquier would find out quick. He Intended to come hack later und tell Fauquier that Antoine was dead, but did not want him to find out then. The witness and Alec Christie arrived at Castlegar on Monday night.

He had drunk a good deal and lie laid down about 30 steps from the Chinaman's about 2 o'clock in the afternoon. When he woke up his money was gone. He did not see Alec in sight, so he went to tlie bank of the lake and he found Alec there. They got a boat from the white people and went out on the lake, returning to' Nelson about 0:30 o'clock that night. They slept In Nelson that night and the next day they went to Thrums on the train and had dinner. They went to Alec Christie's house and slept there that night. The next day, Friday, they went to Baptiste Christie's house and to his sweatbouse, where they fixed up things. It was there that Constable Devltt arrested them. All the years Frank and Antoine knew one another Frank liked Antoine a great deal, and he thought Antoine liked liltu. They had never fought seriously. Sometimes Antoine wanted to fight, but he, the witness, always went away on those , occasions, One time this summer, at Corpus Christ!, when the prisoner was at Marcus, the sheriff told him Antoine had stolen a horse and a woman. The sheriff told him Antoine lay drunk a mile and a half from Marcus and the woman and the horse went toward tbe mission. The sheriff also told him that another sheriff had arrested Antoine, and tbat he, the witness, must pay $12 or Antoine would remain ln gaol for a long time. He paid the sheriff $12 and be gave It from his heart for the release of Antoine. When Antoine got back Frank told blm about it, but he did not ask Antoine to repay the money, and Antoine never paid him.

SUNDAY OCTOBER 24 IS AOpUITTED (Continued from Page Two.) «he ©rtUB $tot*u PAGE THREE "1 him $15 to buy two tickets to Enderby (or Alec, who was Injured, and the witness, who took Alec there (or Antoine. The tickets cost $14 and there was fl over. At the time of Antoine's death the prisoner still owed the $1 to Antoine.1 . Cross-examined by Mr. Lennie, he said Antoine was on the ground only a brief time when he (ell after the witness had taken the rifle trom him. Antoine (ell on his hands and sprang up again at once. The witness had the gun ln his hands and the other gun was In the middle of the boat. An-. tolne said he was going to kill him and started toward the witness. Antoine said four times at Qrassy Point he was going to kill the witness. He said, "I am going to Are and kill you," twice. When he got up from the ground he said that twice again. After striking Antoine with the gun the witness waited half an hour and then took the body by the arms and carried it to the boat. The (eet were dragging, but made no mark as the ground was hard. Where they were shooting the ground was soft and their (eet left Imprints. The reason they went to the hard ground was because Antoine took the boat there, saying, "Here Is the place, here we will land," The witness took the money (rom the body before he tied the rope to the hand. He did not tie on thp rook till he had the body out in the lake. He took the money from Antoine's clothes when the body was about five steps (rom the water's edge. The reason they fired at the stick at Grassy Point was because they were glad and the rifles were good. Their hearts were good and they were laughing. They changed seats about a mile and a half above Fauquier's ranch, about opposite Schlag's, betore they got to Grassy Point. Asked whether Antoine had anything against htm, he said he feared Antoine because, when drunk, Antoine always boasted of his strength and wanted to fight. When sober Antoine never was that way. On, this day Antoine was drunk and was In that humor, and the witness was afraid. Antoine did not tell him why he wanted to kill him. Antoine was not angry on account of his bat going into the water. Mr. Lennie asked the witness if he could think o( anything that would account (or Antoine's anger, but the witness could think of nothing else. Later, when under arrest and landing at Grassy Point with Constable Devltt, the witness saw his own tracks. His lordship asked the witness why he had not retreated when Antoine sprang at him. The witness replied that Antoine dashed at him and he (eared that Antoine would pursue him and take the gun (rom him and shoot him. Antoine had nothing in his hands. When Antoine arose from his hands the witness backed a step and clubbed his gun. His lordship said ap parently thp witness did not try to re- treat. The witness said when Antoine threw the stone he went (our steps away (rom him and threw two small ones and a big. one. The witness avoided the rocks by stooping. Antoine threw the racks very fast. The witness said nothing to Antoine at this stage. Asked by his lordship why he had not taken the body to Fauquier's the witness replied that he had been drinking and did not think of the hest thing to do, so went to Burton City. Asked why he had kept the money and not given it to Antoine's relations, he said if Alec Christie had not persuaded him to go to Castlegar he would have stayed at Burton City and told them about Antoine and given them the money. When arrested by Constable Devltt he had told the latter that he had" taken Antoine's money to take care of it, Mr. Johnson, ln summing up for the defence, pointed out to the jury that the prosecution, before the Indictment could he sustained, must prove that the prisoner committed a murder in the common acceptance of the word, that is to say, took the life of the deceased man deliberately and (or an improper motive. Tracing the history of Indians in general, the counsel laid stress on the former bloodthirsty disposition of the American Indian, his small mentality, and the terrible effect that fire water had in releasing his evil passions. He pointed out that not one witness of the crown who was acquainted with Frank but gave him a fine character. MONEY In Buying Nelson Property NOW Good Bays 90 (t.

He was 48 years of age and had a great affection for the mean-spirited Antoine, 27. years of age. That Antoine had a contemptible disposition, Mr. Johnson showed by reference to the testimony of several witnesses, including the destruction of Alec Christie's eye and a threat spoken ln Fauquier's hearing to "fix Prank" If he did not return the money paid for the Enderby tickets. On the other hand, Frank was simple enough to pay $12 to a Yankee sheriff to get Antoine out of gaol. In every friendly test of strength between the two men Antoine had come off superior. i Antoine was responsible for the two landing at Grassy Point. Frank did not want to land, as the destination of the trip was Burton City, but Antoine made him get out. With his fury rising, Antoine flrst taunted htm and then threw stones at him, following this up hy attacking him. When Frank defended himself by clubbing the gun he took the one way open to him to save his own life. To have run away from the Infuriated younger man would have been to sacrifice his own life, for Antoine would have overtaken him and pumped him full of lead. Mr. Johnson pointed out that anything that happened after the blow was struck could not be considered, for both mutilation and theft could be charged under other indictments. He claimed that the Indian's story was reasonable in every detail. After he had struck the blow in self-defence, and found he had killed Antoine, he was overpowered by fear. He did not then take the course a white man would have taken, hut, after sitting off shore In the boat for half an hour to think It out, he decided to conceal the body. His story was corroborated at many points. For instance, though Dr. Rose found the trunk cut wide open from the public arch to the chest, Fauquier said the body only had two small cuts on It when It came to the surface the flrst time and was lost. The crown had not pretended \o suggest a motive. An expert canoe man, who knew the Columbia river as the jury knew Baker street, could have easily escaped from the country, but he did not run away. He felt confident the verdict would be acquittal. Mr. Lennie, in summing up for the crown, pointed out that the crown did not require to prove that the prisoner killed the deceased, for he had admitted the deed. As for the motive, the onus of proving a motive was not on the crown but on the defence. What, he asked, was the evidence given by the prisoner, when, on account of tlie evidence given by the crown's witnesses, he found it necessary to go on the stand to testify ln his own behalf? His evidence was on all points except regarding the events I at or above Grassy Point, merely a repetition of the testimony given hy the crown's witnesses. As to what occurred at Grassy Point only tlie prisoner and the deceased knew. Did the jury believe his story? It was fair, also, for the jury to take into account what happened after the biow was struck. Was it to be believed that anyone but a guilty man would deal with the dead body as he did? _ j.ue crown counsel said that'll was the duty of the crown to see that alt known facts bearing on the case should be brought out. On his own admission tlie prisoner was guilty or manslaughter. The crown did not intend to ask for a verdict of murder, and he believed his lordship would charge to the same effect. It was a drunken fight, In which tbe prisoner had killed the deceased. He felt confident the jury would do its duty. The law was not for any one nationality, but for every man. His lordship charged the Jury at some length, pointing out, first, that the jury were the sole Judges of the facts, but that they must accept the law as stated by the Judge. In a murder case only three verdicts were possible, his lordship pointed out, guilty of murder, guilty of manslaughter and not guilty." Juries were frequently wont to stretch the facts in favor of the prisoner when the facts really warranted a verdict of guilty of murder, bringing in a verdict of manslaughter. The power and the propriety of rendering a verdict or manslaughter in such a case were two different things. In this case, fortuhately, no such doubt existed, and it had been sufficiently Indicated by the learned counsel for the crown that the verdict should, on the factB, be no stronger than manslaughter. In this case It would be an extremely dangerous thing to bring In a verdict of murder on such facts as had heen brought out. The killing hud been admitted hy the prisoner, so thut fact did not require to he proved. His lordship snld that prior to 1892 the law on murder was construed from previous judgments and the opinions of persons learned in the law. In that year the Canadian parliament enacted a law defining the crime of murder explicitly. His lordship read several sections from tlie Criminal Code dealing with the crime of murder, particularly as to what constituted murder, manslaughter and justifiable homicide, if the prisoner—assuming that the story told by hlni was true—killed the deceased when driven to It to save his own life, it was Justifiable homicide. If he had an opportunity to refrain from killing him, and still preserve his own life, it was manslaughter. Violent provocation, if ucted upon immediately, would result In reducing what would otherwise be murder, to manslaughter. It was for the jury to say whether the accused's account of the affair was -credible, and also to remember that there was nothing ln the evidence to connect the prisoner with the killing of Baptiste except the prisoner's own ■testimony. Hts lordship advised the jury not to attach any Importance to the acts of I mutilating and hiding the body. It a I white man mutilated a body it would Why SlanflelffsOse Nova ScotiaWool THE chief reason is because the Stanfields have never found any other wool that makes Underwear so peculiarly suited to Canadians. The salty, ocean breezes and healthful climate, coupled with the rich grazing, give Nova Scotia wool a quality which is not found anywhere else. Nova Scotia wool is perfectly blended. It is soft and smooth, yet staunch and strong. It can be spun like silk and wears almost like steel. Garments, knitted of this fine wool, give the desired warmth and are not heavy or bulky. It is no exaggeration to say that the Stanfields get the pick of the Nova Scotia wool. The founder of these mills did much to develop the sheep-raising industry throughout the Maritime Provinces. The farmers saved their best wool for him, and continue to send their high grade wool to the Stanfield mills. Then, too, this wool reaches the mills in the best possible condition. There are no long railroad hauls—no lengthy journeys in the holds of tramp steamers. The wool is shipped direct to Truro as soon as sheared. Experts sort, clean and make it ready at once for its trip of transformation into Stanfield's Unshrinkable Underwear. Stanfield's Underwear is made by the only process which takes the shrink out of the wool before the garments are knitted. The value of this discovery—made by the founder of the Stanfield Mills—is shown by the growth of this business, which is now capitalized at $750,000.00 and employs over 300 operatives. * t\ Stanfield's Unshrinkable Underwear is made in 3 standard weights, * "" Light (Red Label), Medium (Blue Label) and Heavy (Black Label) and in 17 other weights and qualities to suit the requirements of every man and woman. 0 The best dealers, everywhere handle Stanfield's Underwear. yj .ltWr' Catalogue showing styles, and samples of fabric, sent free for President your address.
