A DRAMATIC INCIDENT

AT TORONTO INSANE ASYLUM.

TORONTO, Oct. 17.--A dramatic

incident is reported from Mimico Asy- lum for the insane. At a religious _service held on Sunday morning, one of the patients, Alexander Hills, aged 35, suddenly pointed at another pa- tient and said: “That is my brother." No attention was paid to him at first, but he persisted in his state- 'mient. Investigation proved that_ the other patient, Harry Hills, aged 30, who went to Fernie many years ago and was thought to have perished in the fire of July 31, 1908,, as his re- latives had heard nothing of him since that time. His mind had be- come affected and he crossed to the Western States, where the authorities deported him on learning that he or- iginally came from Toronto.

Then instead of being all in, down and out, you’ll come out on top and become a useful member of an enter- prising community and not at all a bad advertisement for the old coun- try.

"I’m going to try to introduce

them over hcrc. Abroad one is not
