Anâ€" other incident was the impudent refus al of an Austrian to consider paying taxes.4He seoffed at the Collector and the Chief and everybody else. Perâ€" haps, he felt safe because he was emâ€" ployed by the Government Railway,â€" the T. N. 0. But his scoffing days were not long, for he found that Aetâ€" ing Chief Sally‘s pull can beat T.

This particuâ€" lar alien enemy learned that even if the Government is foolish enough and wicked enough to employ his kind on the People‘s Railway, there are those in authority in this easy land who will not allow alien enemies to ahuse the diberty given them here.

In past years the eollection of poll tax and income tax, especially from the foreigners, has been a diflicult, if not impossible task. In one way or another the aliens have usually managed to evade the paying of any kind of taxes, but the authoriâ€" ties decided that this year the Town would not lose as usual. Accordingly, on Friday, the 10th,â€"the day on which the alien enemies have to report eaclh month to the police.â€"the Tax Cpllector was installed at the police station. « Later in the day he found so much business that Treasurer Mont gomery had to go over to assist in the taking in of the money, it was coming o fast.

A few weeks ago in referring to complaints sometimes made by soldâ€" iers and soldiers‘ relatives in regard to pensions, separation allowaneces,and other matters, The Advance suggested that often in cases where these ecomâ€" plaints were actually ‘ wellâ€"founded, they would be promptly remedied if brought to the attertion of the proper authorities. _ Oftentimes the proper authorities were the last to hear of the complaints. The idea of The Adâ€" vance was.â€"and is,â€"that the military officrals show â€" usually the greatest courtesy and consideration to all matâ€" ters coming to their attention, and that they are sincerely anxious that all should go well and smoothly, and they shirk nothing to have it so. Inâ€" deed, they are generally unsparing in their patriotic efforts, and few things are too much trouble. An illwstratron of this disposition is given by a letter just received from lieut.â€"Col. H.

A man, a woman and a child came off the train Saturday morning, and another man stepped up to them claiming the woman as his woman. The woman did not want to go, and when the old friend tried to drag her with him, the new one interfered. He hit the older man onee, twice, and the hit man went down on the road. The woman then stopped any further punâ€" ishment, and the three went their ways. The injured man rose up with a broken nose ,cut apparently also with a ring that had been on the other man‘s hand. The Big Provincial came up street later, and sniffed and said: â€"**I earnot get the smell of the batâ€" tlefields of France out of my nose.‘‘ The injured man later went to the police and magistrate, but as he had no lawful elaim to the woman, he decided to lose the woman and all the blood he shed without further trouble.

Already three or four applications hbave been forwarded from Timmins for enrolment in this branch of the service, and those with good education and particularly if possessing mechâ€" anical knowledge or experience, will find this branch an attractive way to give service to their Country and the Cause.

The Jews of Timmins express great pleasure and pride in having secured |Rabbi Lewis, who is a man of great learning in the Old Traditions and the \New, and they look forward to the learly inanuguration ‘of their new synâ€" In addressing the meeting, Rabhbi Lewis, who is famed for his oratory in Hebrew, emphasized many paraâ€" graphs from the old Bible and showed to his hearers that a nation can not exist without education .any more than a house can stand long without a â€" foundation. He advised very a â€" foundation stronely the ble at this time. After this the Comâ€" mittee felt that without the active assistance of the town‘s biggest inâ€" dustry the arrangements and success of the event would be handicapped and it might be best, in view of the brief time, to defer the ‘*"big day‘‘ until next year, when all could work together. Accordingly a full meeting of the Committee was called for Monâ€" day evening, and then it was decided to let the matter drop for this year. It was felt that to attempt a big event this year and not succeed completely would handican future events. It was agreed, however, that encouragement should be given the football, baseball and Gun Clubs in any little events they might plan for the day. The plans were dropped with much regret, for the program outlined was probably one of the best and most inâ€" teresting ever planned for the North Land. Also, it is so long since Timâ€" mins had a ‘‘big day‘‘ that it was felt one rousing holiday was coming to the town. . However, as Chief Borâ€" land says, Timmins can build its hopes for next year on a ripâ€"snorting big day when the Firemen hold their hg event here next summer. A mesting of vital importance to the Hebrews of Timmins was held at the residence of Mr. H. Saunders on Sunâ€" day, August 12th,. At this meeting it was unanimously decided that a synaâ€" gogue should he built here as soon as possible, and Rabhr Lewis was elected unanimeusly to fulfil the Rabâ€" binical duties hcre in Timmins.

This action was taken in view of the shortness of the time for preâ€" paration and because there was not active coâ€"operation from all quarters. At a meeting of the Committee last week Mr. Jules Timmins was present, and explained that the time chosen was not opportune for the Hollinger mine. On accounts of development work there, it would not be possible for the Hollinger to give the active coâ€"operation that the Committee might look for. At some other time, perâ€" haps, the Hollinger could coâ€"operate for the big day planned, but the presâ€" ent time would hbe a very inconvenient one. He thought that if the citizens went on with the event, it might perâ€" haps be possible to seeure facilities for the drilling contests, under certain circumstances, but the active ceoâ€"operâ€" ation of the Mine would not be possiâ€" ble at this time.
