an agreement might he arrived‘ at, he again adjourned the court until 9 o’clock. A repetition of the scene in the afternoon took place in the evening, and the surging crowd was once more disappointed. The court room was well but not uncomfortably filled. Mr. Justice Street again opened the court promptly on the hour, and ex- pectation ran high that a verdict one way or the other had been arrived at. When, too, the Sheriff entered the jury room, the expectant throng concluded that their curiosity was about to be satisfied by the delivery of a conclusion by the jury. A thrill of excitement ran through the crowd, which was increased by the entry of the counsel on both sides, the simultaneous appearance of the jurors, and shortly after- wards the entry of the prisoners. guarded by the constables. When the jury had become seated, his Lordship asked the foreman, Mr. John Grigg, if there was any rospect of an agreement if the jury were apt in longer retirement. Foreman Grigg replied that he did not think there was. When the jury retired the court was adjourned until 5 o’clock, and before 3 o'clock the doors of the building were besieged by a. great crowd, eager to gain an entrance. The locked doors, however, prevented their passage up until the hour for resuming, and the 500 persons who thrronged the doors on Adelaide street at that hour were kept back by THE BI'RLY OFFICIALS of the county. who refused to allow them toenter. His Lordship opened the court promptly on time, but. after wailing pa- tiently for one hour_in the hope that es whicfl were made to Lhé jury fullyrjrixért‘i- fled the opinion entertained by the publlc of the eloquence of the advocates in the cane. From the day on which the trial began till the hour at which it closed the proceed- ‘ngs of the court have been followed by an rnterested crowd of spectators, and the throng was so great on the last day that hundreds had to be refused admission. The greatest degree of popular interest centred in the speeches of counsel, and the address- over 100 witnesses was supcensed, 65 of whom were called, while out of 45 for the defence 41 were placed in the box. In all 852 exhibits were put in and will figure in the next trial. While the counsel on either side displayed throughout the utmost reso- lution to obtain a verdict according with their advocacy. and while no compromises were made by either, the trial was conduct- ed from first to last in that spirit of fairness which is never absent in the proceedings of British courts of justice. in the Dominion for the prosecution, and the services of Mr. B. B. Osler Were accord- ingly secured. The crime charged was so diabolical in its nature, and contained novel features so inimical to the well-being of society, that a conviction, if warranted by the evtdence, would have been regarded 'as amply justifying the Crown in gomg to any length to punish the perpetrators of such an atrocious deed. The prisoners whose family in the United States are people of wealth,and naturally took a deep Interest in the fate of their kinsmen, secur- ed for their defence not only the best legal talent obtainable in Canada, but sent New York barristers conspicuous for their ability to assist in the case. According- ly. when the trial came on at the As- size Court a struggle not often wit- nessed in murder trials Was expected, and the expectation was fully realized. 0n the part of the Crown thecase was conducted by Mr. B. B. Osler with all that magnificent ability which has made him such a power in the criminal courts of the Dominion, and he was assisted with marked ability by Mr. H. H. Dewart, Deputy Attorney-General Cartwright and Mr. J. W. Curry. For the ‘ defence Mr. \Vm. Lount. than whom no lawyer in Canada has a more destinguished reputation; Mr. E. F. B. Johnston, a bar- rister of sound and sterling ability, and Mr. W. G. Murdoch, one of the rising criminal lawyers of the country, were restaiued, and Messrs. 'vVellman and Gooeh of New York attended to render them assistance. HYAMS’ MURDER TRIAL. THE GREAT MURDER CASE NOT YET “To BE SETTLED.

The Hynms’ murder trial at Toronto, which for the last fourteen days has en- gaged the public attention with perhaps more closeness than any other case of the kind which has ever taken place in Cans.- da, was terminated on Friday evening by a disagreement on the part of the jury, and at the instance of the Crown the prisoners were remanded to the next Assize Court. in the meantime they must remain in custody, it being imposstble that they should regain their liberty without having eatisfied the law that they were in no way implicated in the death of the young man whoue life the Crown charges them with having sacrificed to their greed of gain. The trial, which has just closed, was one remarkable in the annals of the criminal court of Canada ior the length of time which it occupied. the number of witnesses who were heard, the great array of legal talent which was engaged on the case, the signal ability manifested by both sides, and the pertinacity With which the legal battle was fought to a. finish. From the day on which the prisoners, Dallas T. and Harry P- Hyams, were arrested on the charge of having compassed the death of William C. Wells for the purpose of securing the insurance of $30,000 which was carried on his life the intense interest of the public has never {altered or flagged. The circumâ€" stances surreunding the death of the young man were so peculiar and so suspicious that the Crown in prosecuting the case had the fullest endorsation of the public. The presumption of crime seemed to justify the retention of , THE ABLEST CRIMINAL LAWYER ON BEHALF OF THE CROWN Om Great Statesmanâ€"Yes, sir.

See that Qhe regis- tered trade mark is on all packages. Henry Haines, who has for several years past acted as farm foreman for Mr. Daniel Currie of Glen \Valter, Glengarry county, has quite a large family, among them one daughter Mary, now about 18 years of age. Until her 12th year she was much as other children, fairly rugged and without sick- ness of any kind. Then of a sudden she became delicate and as the months went on her parents were afraid she was going into a decline. Her heart beat feeblyashe was feverish and flushed, slept badly and had but little appetite. Doctors were consulted, who talked about growing too fast, and such common places, and prescribed differ- ent medicines, none of which, however, appeared to be of any permanent benefit. A year or so ago the young lady. hoping a change of air might accomplish for her what medicine could not, went to Fort Covington, N. Y.. where she had some rel- atives, and engaged as a nurse. Even this light employment, however, proved too much for her and in the spring she returned to her parents a perfect wreck, with noth- ing to do but die, as she thought. But when least expected aid was at hand. Mr. Haines had been reading of the niarvellous cures made by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and reasoned within himself that if they had cured others they might save his daughter’s life. On the next View to Corn- ‘ well he bought a half dozen boxes of Pink ‘ Pills. It may be easily imagined that Miss ‘ Haines required little persuasion to try the much talked of remedy, and well for her it was that she did so. In the course of a week she felt an improvement. Bv the time she had taken two and a half boxes she realized that she was experiencing such health as she had never known before, and her friends began to remark and congratulate her on the change in her appearance. Still persevering in the use of the pills, she found herself when at the end of the fifth box in perfect health and able to engage in all the work of the household and the amusements from which she had up to that time been debarred. She had an excellent appetite and no one could wish to feel better. Hearing of the marvellous change her sister from Fort Covinglon came over to satisfy ' herself, and could hardly be persuaded that the robust, happy looking girl was indeed her sister whom she had never expected to see alive again. Miss Haines says she cannot say enough in favor of Dr. Williams’ wonderful Pink Pills, to which she feels assured she owes her life. I He could not answer for the rest of the jury, but; he did not think that with further time they would reach a-conclusion. His Lordship expressed the disinclination he felt: at discharging the jury and putting the county to che cost of a new trial ; but, upon being assured by anogfierirjdrv'rnan' til-BE an agreement; could not be arrived at, be decided to dismiss them. Adisargrgemgnn was, ac- cordingly, ecorded and the jury discharg- ed. The prisoners, who did not display great anixety at the result, were retained in custody,a.nd will be held till the autumn Assizes. Mr. Curry,on behalf of the Crown, asked that the exhibits be retained, and the court consented. The spectators left the court with a mingled feeling at relief and disappointment.

Nothing in this world is more distressing, and unfortunately it is too common in this Canada of ours, with its extremes of climate â€"its almoat arctic winters and summer days of tropic heatâ€"then to see a young life fading away like a blighted vine. Its early days have been full of promise, but just when the young maiden becomes of a lovable age with everything to live for, or the young man evinces signs of business aptitude, they are suddenly stricken down and too often in months, or it may be weeks, there are empty chairs at the fire- side and sore hearts left behind. Not always is this the case, however. Fortun- ately science has discovered remedies to check the ravages of decline, when it has not gone too for. Recently, a case of this kind was brought to our notice, and the circumstances were so notable and attract- ed so mnch attention in the neighborhood that we felt impelled to inquire into them more fully and give them the benefit of as wide publicity as possible.
