While rusticating in the hills, a party of several herdsmen discovered clothes and blood on a stone. They raised it, and found concealed there two arms which had been severed from the body of the victim. On further investigation, they found buried in the ground, some distance from the pair of arms, the tank of a murdered man, with the bead missing. The remains indicated that a murder had been com- miited recently. The authorities were informed of the discovery, and investigations are being made to unearth the author of the crime.

Both on the race day and at the lotterler held two evenings before, things were either done or threatened which would hardly meeting in England.

An absurd contretemps occurred after the third race; there were four runners, Tory passed the post first, Black Prince second, and Dandy third, but Tory's rider f.ll off, and Dandy's owner entering an objection the Judge wa unable to give the order in which the animals came to. A meeting of the Stewarda was held and the race was declared vold, and ordered to be run again on the following Monday.
