The very mysterious case is that of DR.. J.

he roomed while here. The doctor was

tour for his health and pleasure. He had
plenty of money, and hobby he aired
frequently was that he believed there was a
fortune to be made in British Columbia in
chicken ranching and asserted that he was
going to buy some property. A real
estate man here was pressing him to go
into business. He showed large sum in
gold and notes on the day he was last
seen, in Decemb Der, and iutimated that he
was going to the mainland with an agent
to look at the property. Death must have
followed few hours from this, as the
body was found in the same clothes and
the same travelling cap he had worn, and
the satchel he carried was the same, but the
money W as not with the remains, and many
would like to know who the real estate
man was and If the unfortunate doctor
was induced to purchase his chicken
ranch. The case, i'll many features, closely
resembles the Birchall tragedy. The police
insist that it was a case of suicide and will
pay no attention to- the other theories, and
the coroner's jury returned a verdict of
suicide accordingly. Many Victorians be-
