TRAGEDIES IN THE BUSH.
PERTH (W.A.), Wednesday.
Jimmy the Fiddler, alias Theodore James Watt, an Identity on Day Dawn fields, left Meehan's station, Austin Downs, last Satur- day week in very hot weather. He was re- ported missing. The police followed the tracks for a week, and found his body seven miles from a well as Austin Downs. He was 70 years old, and probably died from thirst.
At Busselton Hospital William Champion, a remittance man, who came from England two years ago, died from shock and pneumonia, having cut his throat three days before at Lennox River.
