Don't Want His Son.

Ernest Gable, who lives on Bohemian
fats, brought his four-year-old boy to the
police station yesterday and wanted him
cared for, as he claims that he is unable to
support him. While at the station the
child was given some bread and cheese, and
the father in the extremity of his hunger
took the victuals from the boy and ate them
himself. Mrs. Gable skipped out with a
man few weeks ago taking one child with
her, and is now living in Saltwater. A
neighbor of the Gables promising to provide
them with food until Monday. the boy was
sent home The father is anxious to have
some one adopt the child.

Snowshoeing- as a sport and pastime
cannot be excelled by any other outdoor ex-
ercise. and while many ludicrous and harm
less accidents happen TO the new beginners
on snOwshoes, it is easy to acquire per-
fectiOn in it. Any person can walk upon
snowshOes the first time he puts them on.
but it naturally requires little practice TO
become perfect upon them. There is no
reason, however. why anyone should not
become an expert snowshOer with a short
practice and little patience.

THE PAssAIc COUNTY FREEHoLDERs

There is considerable excitement in Passac County,
~ j. over prospect Of the Grand Jury now IN session
lndicting the majority OF the Board Of Chosen Free,
holders. The two preceding Grand Jures had found
presentments against the county for the nadequacy OF
the courthouse accommodations. The present Board
recently voted 10 lease from the society for Establishing
Manufactures the property known as Colts Hill. the
ancestral residence Of the Colt family for the purpose
OF changing the mansion into courthouse building.
The lease was practically sale. as was perpetual and
the Freeh0lders have applied TO the Legislature for a
thority to buy the property outright The county paid
$4,000 cash tho bargain. 1t is the voting OF this
payment Of $4,000 that raises the question Of tho la
bty of the Freehoders to indictment The law forbds
the county TO spend more than $4,000 public
buildings and grounds and large portion OF that sum
has already been expended from this years Appropriation
1t Is claimed by that the 1000 paid to the soefc
