efforts of the prosecution.The father of the two accused, also called as a witness, apparently laboring under a strain, broke down op one occasion and wept, but steadfastly declined to leave the witness box, and gave his testimony carefully and well.Although taken up separately, the evidence in the two cases was identical, and that taken in the momi g session in the case of Joseph Labrie was reviewed in hearing the latter charge against his brother.The continuation of the hearing of the first and elder of the brothers was first taken up, and the line of evidence, started in the morning, was resumed.Joseph Labrie, sr., father of the accused, was the first to take the witness stand, and Mr.Wilfrid Lazure, acting as crown prosecutor, began his examination.The Father\u2019s

answer unless he so desired, as he was involved in the same case and the evidence which he might give could be used against himself.Mr.Lazure replied that separate cases had been made and that the two brothers were not implicated in the same charge, but in two distinc charges.Since it was the same alleged murder for which both had been arrested, however, Judge Lacroix ruled that the witness need not answer, and the boy left the box.Chief A.Z.Couture, of the local police, was then called, and testified that he had confiscated the two guns shown in court in the home of the two brothers, along with a quantity of \u201csoft-nosed\u201d bullets.The rifle, he said, was hidden when found.The case of Emile Labrie then proceeded, and the same evidence was gone over as in the previous hearing.Both

IMPORTATION OF DYES (Associated Press Despatch) OTTAWA, Feb.27\u2014The debate on the address was continued in the Senate yesterday by Sir James Loug-heed and Senators Dandurand and Casgrain.Senator Dandurand, who is acting as Liberal leader in the absence of Senator Bostock, who has left for England, said there were upwards of fifty thousand persons unemployed in Canada already, and this number would be constantly swelled as the soldiers were brought back from overseas.This unemployment situation could only be met through Canada securing foreign orders, and he wanted to know what had been done to get these orders.Coming to the paragraph in the speech which forecasted prohibition legislation, Senator Dandurand said that while he was in favor of temperance, he was strongly opposed to prohibition, and he would resist with all his power any legislation which sought to bar French wines from the country, or which aimed to ' rive people of the use of light be He concluded by sayin-\tthe appointment of Hon.P.r\ta to the Senate, thus enabli\tvo re- tain his portfolio after he .oeen rejected by the people, was without a precedent in British or Canadian parliamentary history.Sir James Lougheed, who replied, said there was unrest throughout the country but this was not surprising.The war had meant an upheaval of human relationships and conditions all over the world.In the old world, powers and dynasties and thrones, which for centuries had repressed the liberties of the peoples, were crumbing, and it was not surprising that the shores of the new world should be touched by the spent wave of revolution now spreading over Russia and the nations of Central Europe.Senator Casgrain, who followed, rejoiced over the forecasted disap-pearance of the War-Time Election Act, expressed opposition to the proposed prohibition legislation, wanted to have more information about the Canadian Northern Railway and the situation in respect to the Grand Trunk; said Sir Robert Borden was playing a minor role at the Peace Conference, and that Canada was not represented there as a nation, and came out in favor of a Central Imperial Parliament at the heart of the Empire which should include representatives from all the self-governing Dominions.Before the Senate adjourned, Sir James Lougheed announced that he would move the second reading of the new Railway Act on Thursday, and j hoped that the Senate could send it on to the Commons before it took the ! usual adjournment at the conclusion | of the debate on the address.TO SINK, BREAK UP OR SELL THE GERMAN SHIPS # m i mi 'if V) tSJ ¦-7m \u2019 » 'W-ÎT HOME AGAIN.For our Homecoming Soldier Bovs, suits in Just the Styles they want.Suits in smart military effects* with fitted waist (ines and vertical P0('
