HE "sEEs THINGS"
Harold Johnson's Mind as Defective a.
His Morals.

Harold johnson. accused of stealing
some $40 worth of postage stamps and
held to the grand jury on the charge of
grand larceny in the second degree, may
change his county Jail board for ST. Peter
fare. The prisoner of late has been sub
ject to Authorizations and believes that
all sorts of persons are after him. treat
ing him to electric shocks and other
equally unpleasant things. He is believed
to be insane and the authorities have
taken the matter up.
Owing to Judge Elliott's ruling declar-
ing unconstitutional the law prodiving for
the Gamination, of supposed insane pris-
oners by a commission appointed by q
district Judge, other steps will be taken.
The prisoner will be examined by the
county physician and If he is pronounced
mentally unbalanced, the county attorney
will be asked to dismiss the charge. This
done and with no indictment hanging
over him, he will be examined in the pro-
bate court.

CONTRACTS ARE TAXED
Equalizers Decline to Abate a Piano
Con1pany's Assessment.

Contracts are classed as credits and are
to be assessed accordingly by the city.
This was decided this morning by the
city board Of equalization in the appeal
Of piano company for an abatement Of
5000 on It's assessment.
a represe sentative of the company argued
that pianos sold on installments should
not be assessed against the company, first
because the pianos had been sold and be-
longed to other parties, second because
the contracts specifically provided that
the taxes should be paid by: the purchasers
and third because the contracts were
payable in another city where the com
pany was assessed for its credits These
arguments failed to influence the equaliz-
ers and they denied the abatement

Twenty-Eight Killed in Railroad
Wreck at Wanstead, Ontario.

Twenty-eight people were killed and
many others injured in a collision be
tween a west bound express and an east
bound freight at Wanstead, Ontario. a
small station on the Sarina branch of the
Grand Trunk railway. The express was
running two hours late at great speed.
and the freight was being run upon a
siding. Had the express been a minute
or two later no accident would have oc-
CURED. There was an awful crash; the
colliding locomotives reared up and fell
into the ditch, the baggage car of the
express telescoped the smoker and the
shrieks and cries Of the wounded and tho
dying filled the air. The injured sus-
tanned all manner Of hurts. and when
they reached the hospital at London
were so covered with blood that they
could not be recognized Heads were
cut of, legs were wrenched from the
bodies. and the stretch of snow COW
cred level highway became crimson with
the blood Of the victims.
All of the people in the smoking car
were killed or seriously injured The
occupants Of the two Pullman cars and of
the second dav coach came to the re-
lief Of the sufferers as soon as possible,
but there were but few facilities at
hand The sufferers were finally car
rled to london. 40 miles away. Fire
broke out in the wreck but 1t was quick
ly eXtinguished. heaVy snow storm
prevailed at the time, delaying the work
of relief.
Andrew Carson. the telegraph operator
n Watford. the first station east of the
wreck failed to deliver an order to Con-
ductor McAuliffe Of the express. hut he
make out defence for himself that
may involve Dispatcher Kerr of London
in trouble The latter has made no
statement. hut an official investigation
will settle the responsibility for the
disaster.
