T.A. Messrs, Hales and Smith were here to study conditions at first hand. Generally they were pleased with the excellent order of the Town and the general good law enforcement. The License Board is constantly in of complaints in regard to the enâ€" forcement of the law and kindred matâ€" ters. In regard to Timmins the numâ€" ber of complaints has not been as large as might reasonably hbe expected. Chairman Hales saidâ€" that there had been some complaints made but there were practically nonue in regard ‘to houses improperly kept orasin regard to immoral places here. He thought that the police must be keeping the sitttation well in hand in Timmins. All the other towns in the North Land were not is as good condition.

After the wedding a very pleasing reception was held at the home of Mrs. P. Laverne. The popularity of the young couple was attested by the number of very beautiful gifts received.

In all these events the Timmins boys did honour to themselves and to their town. In the Cadet Challenge Cup match at the Rifle Ranges Timmins came fourth. This event was won by the Sault Ste.: Marie with 268 points. ‘The Brantford Cadets were second with 264, Orillia third with 225 and Timmins fourth with 217. North Bay also made 217 and Midland 216. ‘The shooting was at 200 and 300 vards: > **"All who knew him will deeply reâ€" zret the death of Mr. Stephen Salzer, who passed away last week at the Cairns Hospital, Timmins, after an illness of about a year from cancer of the throat. The"late Mr. Salzer was one of the pioneers of tliis pari of the North Land. In the early days he was a popular resident of South Poreupine. Later he took up 2ess of industry ly in m a ftime he was ableée to continue at business, but later he had to hbe conâ€" fined to his home. A few weeks ago Mr. A. C. White and other friends at Hoyle saw to his removal to the Cairns hospital, but despite all that care and attention could do Mr. Salâ€" zer succumbed <to the malady from which he suffered for manvy months. country. He was beginning to make a name for himseélf as a suceessful North Land market gardener and horâ€" ticulturist: when he became ill.

White and other friends at Hovle saw to his removal to the THREE YEARS FOR THEFT FPFROM COCHRANE POST OFFICE A short time agoâ€"a registered mail parcel from one of the banks disapâ€" peared from the mails at Cochrane. There was the neat sum of $5500.00 in the parcel, and the Dominion Police were noiufiled at once of the loss. Sergt. Machachlan was put on the case and proceeded at once to Cochâ€" ‘ane. He apparently made a thorough investigzation and no doubt had the case lined up in very short order, buti no arrests were made for a day or two. Then a young man named Redâ€" den, who was assistant postmaster at Cochrane, boarded the train for a trip away. Sergt. MacLhachlan placed him under arrest and a search of his grip revealed $5,300.00 in bills. Unâ€" til the money was found Redden was strong in his protestations of innoâ€" cence, but when the goods were found he weakened. He was taken before Magistrate Tuckerâ€" and eventually sentenced to three years in Kingston pernitentiary. This is the minimum penalty for such thefts from the mails, the maximum being a life term. The law in this regard is more severe than,the O.T.A. Within a week of the time the Dominion Police were put on the case, the guilty was on his way to serve ‘his term at Kingston.

Some time ago efforts were made along the same line, and the Government authorized the work to be done. The contract was given and the work started and then without any exeuse or explanaâ€" tion, so far as known, the work was suddenly ordered sfopped. ‘That was the end of it. The Farmers‘ Governâ€" ment had apparently been eonvinced of the absolute necessity for the work, but then had repented.
