MYSTERIOUS DEATHS.
Entire Family Of Edward DardInla
Wiped Out.

Calgary, Alberta, Jan. 21.-A trag-
edy, the details of which will never
be known, has wiped out the entire
family OF Edward Dardinia. proprietor
of tannery. The police broke into the
house and found Ferdinand dead In
bed, the body of newly born infant
at his side, while the dead body Of
Mrs. Ferdinand lay on the floor near
the body. In another bed were two
young boys, still alive. but so severely
frozen that they soon died. The suppo-
sition is that the family was overcome
by the coal gas. that the wife recov'
cred sufficiently to attempt to fix the
pipes and died. The boys probably
were overcome by gas and recovered
only TO be frozen.
