Act.) It was simply a case of a misâ€" take being made in ‘the hurry that neeessgarily had to accompany _ atâ€" tempts to follow up clues in a case. Thp slightest delay in such a case usâ€" ually meant that the ‘*‘evidence‘ woul<d be missing when the police arâ€" rived. _ Officer Collins had been tolid tliat two men had been drinking from a bottle behind the rink. â€" He thought he sighted the two and tracked,them to a house on Birch street. 'l‘-th the warrant had been made out. None of the police knew who lived in the house and of course there had been no intenâ€" fion to create any annoyance,. _ It had been simply a mistake. The Chief referred in the highest terms to courteous enough when he found out who lived at the house, still Mr. Field felt that the harm and insult had been done the moment the police came to the lhouse. He pointed out that a little reasonable engquiry, a little comâ€" mon sence and judgment, would have avoided fhe annoyance and injury thus caused to a respectable and lawâ€" abiding citizen. â€" The Chief‘s explanâ€" ation to ‘him had been that he had sent Officer Collins to try und find out if there was a ‘house near the rink sellâ€" ing liquor as had been reported. The Chief had instructed the officer to keep a general lookâ€"out and to watch particularly men in an intoxicated econdition coming from any of the houses. Oficer Collins had seen two men whom he thought to be drunk into a eertain house and he had then secured the warrant. By the hbr. the men were suppose@ to go into the house Mr. Field knew them to be two men who had came to see him before he left the house. He said he was prepared to swear that they were not intoxicated. â€" He had ‘done husiness with them in connection with a death claim for insurance on the son of one of the men, and he would not chave attegupted such business if tlhrey ‘had shown signs of liquor.. Mr. Field thought the police had done him an injury by their action in the matter, which he considered unuecessary and unwarranted and he usxked for a pubâ€" lic apology. He also told the Council that the following day when he asked the â€"Chief â€" for an explanation, the Chief had eone ‘‘un in the air‘‘ inâ€" Chief had gone ‘‘up in the air‘‘ inâ€" stead of showing the proper attitude. Chief Wilson‘s explanation to the Council was to the effect that the inâ€" cident was in the run of business of enforeing â€"theâ€" Ontario Temperance The regular meeting of the Town Council was held on Monday evening with Acting. Mayor Brazean iqy the chair and Messrs Fogg, Longmore, De *’n and Newton present. Mr. Wm. jeld wrote a letter to the Council complaining of the action of Chief Wilson and Officer Collings in entering his house during his absence with a search warrant to search for liquor. Mr. Field also appeared before the Council in person and explained his grievance. _ In broad. daylight two police had been stationed at his back door and the Chief had entered by the front door and gone through unâ€" announced to the kitchen where the ladies of the house were. _ Although the Chief ‘had gone out again without making anvy search and chad been All Petitioned For Will Be Done If Time Permits.

In the meantime the little dinky engine, as soon as the cars were noticed in their mad eareer, started after them, tootâ€" ing the whistle and _ whistling the toot. all the time. The dinky engine, however, could not ceatch the runaway ears, nor, if it had caught them, could it have got in front of them to head them off. But the whistle could and did warn all and sundry that someâ€" thing desperate was in the air and so there was no danger to life from the runaway ears.

This would do away with lateness of the trains so eommon nowadays. Tuesday morning some little exeitâ€" ment â€" was eaused by the â€" violent sereeching of the whistle on the din ky engine used in the construction work on the spur line to the river. The. whistle piereed the fog a seore of times with its hoots that seemed ‘alls for help.< The cause of all this noise and turmoil was found to lre in the fact that a couple of ears of eravel broke away from a work train and started by themselves down tne track of the spur line, gathering more speed as they went along, as there is a decided drop in the grade of the line to the river. â€" Eventually the gravel gravel bro and starte track of t CARS OF GRAVEL RUN AWAY ON MATTAGAMI SPUR These are some of the fitles of the views to be shown and indicate the scope and interest of the pmetures to be presented.

The result of the meeting will be of particular inâ€" terest to the prospectors of the disâ€" trict, as the chief subject for considâ€" eration will be the question of securâ€" ing further capital and commencing active work again on the property.

Mr. A. Amos, manager for Hamilâ€" ton B. Wills, has just returned to Cobalt from a visit to England in connection with mining properties in the North Land. From behind the Timmins Rink a diamond «drill outfit can be seen at work a short distance west of Moneta und south of the towa af Timmins. This diamond drilling is being done by the Northwoods Mining Company, of which Mr. C. B. Morgan is the local _ representative. The Northâ€" woods Company is a corporation made up of New York â€" holding considerable claims and properties in the North Land. On the sand plain west of Moneta and south of the town they own eighty acres, and their hope is that on this property they will loâ€" cate _ extensions _ of the _ Hollinger veins., If they do, it will mean a great deal to the town of Timmins, for a new mining property of great importance and promise will be openâ€" ed up alongside the town. Such a mine would be employing 200 men or more in a very short time, with alâ€" most unlimited possibilities ahead for the property. â€" Practically no mining work has been done previously on this particular strip of land, because of the heavy overburden of sand. â€" Prosâ€" pectors and others have not attempted to «develop properties with such a deep layer of covering sand. The diamond â€" drill, chowever, will give some indication of the value of the property below the sand, and ‘the Northwoods Company are going to make a thorough test in this way, it being understood that 5000 feet of diamond drilling has been eontracted for and will be done this year. Alâ€" ready, at one place on the property, where the sand is about fifty feet deep, the diamond drill is said to have shown that there is an ore formation below that is indentical with the Holâ€" linger property formation. . Assays have been made of the drill cores, but no announcement has been made as to the results from these assays. It is believed, however,‘ that the reâ€" sults from the diamond drilling have been very satisfactory so far and that the further work will test: out the probabilities : of the Hollinger vein system heing locatedâ€" on the Northâ€" woods Company property below the overburden of sand.

The Thompsonâ€"Krist has pactically only a shaft down aâ€" bout 100 feet, but of little use on acâ€" eount of tke fact that it is not on the ore body. The best development on Thompsonâ€"Krist so far has been from the N. T., but the Thompsonâ€" Krist has had to pay good prices for this development. The Poreupine Crown and the Thompson Krist propâ€" erties are adjacent and a drift from the Poreupine Crown would encounter the Thompson Krist vein at the 400 foot level, at which point all developâ€" ment work on the property has been done. ‘The amalgamation would add to the pomising area held by the Poreupine Crown and at the same time it would mean a moreâ€"economical development of the Thompsonâ€"Krist, from the shareholders‘ viewpoint, and in other ways it is considered by many as a good proposition for both compâ€" anies. to both â€" concer Crown Jas about the treasury, dollars‘ worth « While no new â€" deÂ¥elopments have been reported regarding the proposal for the amalgamation of the Pux(lm- ine Crown and the lh()lll])bfill-l\llbt. a current opinion in the Poreupine is that such a merger would be benefi¢ial to hoth concerns.* The Poreupine Crown Jras about $275,000 in cash in the treasuiry, with about half a million dollars‘ worth of ore, and a fully Between 1200 and 1500 are estimatâ€" ed to have attended the Picnic at the Government Farm at Monteith on Friâ€" day last.

The sports programme was an interâ€" esting one. The Timmins Boy Scouts Foothball team played the Monteith team and won from them in an interâ€" esting match with the seore 1 to 0. The Timmins Boy Seouts Football team have won every match played by them this year, and at Monteith on Friday they kept up this record desâ€" pite the fact that a €ouple of senior players were included in the opposing team.
