Saskatoon, Aug. 14 Little Manitou lake, the popular resort near Watrous, was yesterday the scene of a pecu- Warly-sad and tragic drowning, when within view of a large crowd of Sun- day visitors, R. L. Hood ;the acting mayor of Lanigan, gave up his life to save that of his fiancee, who was to have become his bride on Wednes- day next. The lady, Miss McFarlane, herself had a very narrow escape, her life being saved at the sacrifice of ancther, while a third person who went to the rescue also came near to meeting a similar fate, As usual on Sunday there was big crowd at the beach, but for the most part, they: were unable to do any more than look on as the sad tragedy was enacted .

It would appear that Miss McFar- lane, becoming exhausted, and get- ting into deep water, got into diffi- culty, and that Mr. Hood immediately: went to her-rescue. His efforts, how- ever were only partially successful, and another swimmer went-to their aid, He in turn also was overcome, and when further ald could be given all three had to be brought to shore in an unconscious state, Medical attention was soon at hand and first ald methods resulted in Miss McFarlane 1d the s cond man who went to the rescue being brought round, With Mr, Hood, however, it appear d that he had suffered stran- gulation, and although life was not extinct, all-efforts at. resuscitation failed to bring relief, and he died shortly after. Another version is that Mr. Hood was able to assist his fiancee until she could touch bottom, but that the, effort liad been too much for him, and that he turned over in the water, taking so much in his lungs that ef- forte at resuscitation failed. moeratic victory created a weleome scene in the House. and amid great confusion the Republican leaders pro- tested that Speaker Clatk must answered Present to their names, a ruling which would have defeated the Democratic programme by over- coming the five vote margin and making impossible the reeording of the necessary two-third vote of the House.

Terrill, editor and manager of the Medicine Hat Daily News, a former Toronto newspaper man, is spending a week or two in the city after an ab- sence of anumber of years. Mr. Terrill, who is an officer of both the Alberta and British Columbia and the Western Canada Press Associations, has within the last couple of weeks attended the annual conventions of these organiations, which were held respectively at Nelson, B, C., and in the Twin Cities. He states that the prevail- ing opinion amongst the Western journalists is that the Prairie Provinces will this year produce a grain crop which will startle the world providing 0 untgward cir- cumstance occurs within the next couple of weeks to mar the present prospects. The winter rye and the barley have been harvested to a large extent and ten days of warm weather will carry the wheat past the danger point. ; Speaking of the prospects of Medicine Hat, Mr. Terrill claims that in the very near future his city will take precedence in importance over any point be- tween Winnipeg and the coast. He supports the statement by drawing attention to the facilities which Medicine Hat offers to industrial powers, viz., power which he tsays-is-the-cheapest-in Cariada,an-abundant supply of good water and competitive railway rates.
