BELFAST, juno 16.-The following ad.
ditional particulars ol the Thorndyke
murder has been elicited from John Cor.
don, man 70 years old: He had recently
conveyed tohis son, Almon II, his farm
worth s. 900, taking back mortgage for
the support Of himself and vile. The
other son, John T., was dissatisfied with
the arrangement, and probably thought
that by the death Of his brother and fam
ily, the property would fall to him, This
Is the only motive thus far asssgn-
ed. AT the time Of tue murder the old
people were absent on a visit, and
the inmates Of the house were the murd'
cred man, AlmOn n. aged 25, Emma A,
his wife aged 80 and their children, Ira b.
aged Q years, q little girl aged II months,
Annie 4. his niece aged years, John 7.
the brother and hired man. About 3
A. N. the latter were awakened BY the
shrieks OF the little boy and he immedi-
ately discovered that the house was on
fire. He informed the neighbors and the
flames were exLinguished without much
damage, and the bodies Of the father,
mother and infant who occupied the
same bed were soon found mangled and
so seorchel as to be hardly recognizable,
The little boy who slept in crib in the
same room, was wounded but may survive,
The bloody deed was evidently commit
ted with an axe which was found on the
premises. The wounds Of the three per-
sons were inflicted upon the head, and
must have caused instant death. The
brother, John T., has been arrested on
suspicion. He Is 3S years Of age, . farm
lRborer, and Is unmarried. He maintains
sullen indifference, refusing to answer any
questions; but saying that at the proper
time he win defend himself. The coroner
held the inquest this afternoon. The
prisoner will probably be arraigued be-
lore the Police Court Of this city to.mor-

Farmers Crist Mill.

While the farmers throughout the
country are complaining-and justly
too-ot the exorbitant rates OF trans.
portation over the various railroads
that traverse the country III every di.
rection, they are apt to overlook
many other equally excessive rates.
A few words Oh the subject OF grist
mills, aud the high rates OF toll will
form the burden oil this communica-
ton. That the high rates usually
charge may be obvlated, | would
suggest that the farmers organize a
stock company, erect a good steam
Grist mill, and place the same in OPP
Grafton. A board OF directors. sec
rotary, president and treasurer would
be necessary to transact the business
OF the Company. With the organi-
cation thus perfected, the mill erect
ed, the farmers who hold stock, say
to the amount of one hundred dol.
lars therein should have their milling
done at cost, while rate OF toll.
such that would yield fair profit,
should be charged such as have not
that amount OF stock. claim that a
mil can be built here, that will pay
good interest to every farmer who
will take etoois in IL. By taking six
ty pounds of good wheat he can get
his forty pounds o. good -four, in
stead OF twenty five or thirty pounds,
the amount he gets now; and also
he can get his corn she!led and groanj
tor four or five cents per bushel.
From these figures it will be seen
that the most OF the farmers would
save enough in two years ut least, TO
pay tor their stock invested. would
like to sec the Oranges, Farmers
Clubs and the farmers in general take
hold OF this and build good mill.
The writer is satisfied that the bust
ness men OF Toledo would aid us
literally in the enterprise, tor a
good mill, built and conducted on
some such plan as l have suggested,
would bring more farmers to this
point than anything else. l throw
out these suggestions, hoping they
will be favorably considered by all
concerned.

increase the efficiency Of our schools

We have selected, and earnestly

First-They are fresh, attra ctive,
and fully up with the times.
Second-This series of Readers
has been prepared by practical and
srccesstul teacher of Reading, one
who has devoted many years to the
subject, and carefully studied Its
workings in the school room.
Third-They combine the small
lest am unit OF theory with the
greatest amount of practice.
Fon-th-ThA lnw.r books contain
the Wor1, Method, Phonic. Analysis, the

thus enabling the teacher to choose
the course with which he is the most
familiar, or the one he can teach

BY this means the pupil can see al
