Moore, of Cobalt, has sent out circulars asking the aid of the police in locating William Welsh, a Haileybury youth, who disappeared from his home on Dec. 5th. It is thought that the boy may have gone away with the idea of securing work, probably having tired of going to school. He was in the third form in the Haileybury high school. |He is less than 16 years of age, but large for his age. On the day he left home he put on heavier clothing than he had been wearing and otherwise his actions might suggest that he had planned a trip away. There has been a story around Haileybury to the effect that the lad might have been drowned in the lake, but there does not seem to be any grounds for this. He was seen between 7 and 8 o‘clock on Dec. 5th, by Police Chief MeGirr, of Haileybury, but the skaters on the lake did not see him that evening and his skates were left at home. _ His family and the police alike are sure there is nothing in the drowning theory but that the lad has simply taken a notion to go away for a time. If anyone should know of the location of this boy, it would be a good thing to promptly notify the police, as his absence no doubt is causing a great deal of unnecessary anxiety and alarm.

BIG PROGRAMME OF WORK FOR THE ARGONAUT MINES. In an interview at Toronto last week, Mr. J. A. Naud, of the Argoâ€" naut Consolidated Mines, Limited, who was accompanied by Mr. Thomas, mining engineer for the company, said that Argunaut was on a sound finanâ€" cial basis, with sufficient funds in the treasury to provide for a twoâ€"year programme of additional development. Present efforts, stated Mr. Naud, were to be centred in building up a mine, with production considered of seconâ€" dary importance. _ Deep mining was considered a primary feature. _ An additional air compressor had been added to the plant at the Larder Lake property, with a second diamond drill in operation. â€" Drifting was going for-! ward at the 1,125 and 1,250â€"foot levels and fresh operations were commenced last week below the 1,250 foot level and associated territories. The obâ€" jective aimed at, according to Mr. Naud, was a depth of 1,500 feet, which would be increased later to 1,850. Proving up work and closer examination of geological structures formed part of the winter‘s proâ€" gramme, it was also stated. _ Work on the property was steadily proceeding, declared Mr. Naud, and the mine was well equipped to undertake further developments planned with organizaâ€" tion complete and working in harâ€" mony. â€" Ten claims in Dasserat Townâ€" ship still remained to be explored, and it was stated that, now that funds may be diverted from main development, an exploration campaign will be unâ€" dertaken on the Quebece property in early spring. In dealing with Lavalâ€"Quebec, of which Mr. Naud is viceâ€"president, it was ascertained that geological formaâ€" tion of Rouyn holdings are considered excellent, which reference also applied to the claims held by the company in Montbray, where there was also surâ€" face mineralization. Extensive winâ€" ter work had been outlined for both properties, to be carried through until spring, with plenty of funds at hand for necessary developments. Work in Desmeloizes Township, where the company also has holdings, was stated to be at a standstill.

A discount of five per cent. is allowed on taxes so paid, under the provisions of the byâ€"law. The plan was proposed by Alderman H. M. Anderson, chairman of the finance committee of the North Bay council, and was passed without any opposiâ€" tion from any of the other members of the council. The byâ€"law enacts: ‘*‘The tax comâ€" missioner is hereby authorized to reâ€" ceive in any year, payments on acâ€" missioner is hereby authorized to reâ€" ceive in any year, payments on acâ€" count of the taxes for that year in advance of the day that might be fixâ€" ed by byâ€"law for the payment of any instalment of such taxes and to allow a discount on any taxes so paid in advance at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, according to a schedule as prepared, notwithstanding that the taxes for any such year, have not been levied, or that the assessment roll on which the taxes are to be fixed and levied has not been adopted by the council, when such advance payment is made. ‘*Any taxpayer shall not pay in adâ€" rance a sum greater than the amount of his previous year‘s taxes, and, in any event, the payment made by the taxpayer shall not be less than $5.00 and not more than $2,000. ‘‘The byâ€"law will come into forcee at the beginning of the new year, at which the advantage will be available to the FIRST CHRISTMAS TREE IN GERMANY IN 1829 What is the first mention of a Christmas tree in English literature? (asks the Daily Cinroniele.) It is probably to be found in the memoiurs of Greville, who spent Christmas 1829 as a member of a houseparty at Pansâ€" hanger, and xecords that ‘‘on Christâ€" mas Day the Princess (Lieven) got up a little fete such as is customary all over Germany. Three trees, in great pots, were put upon a long table covâ€" ered with pink linen; each tree was illuminated with three cireular tiers of coloured wax candles,"‘‘ e. c. A reference to ‘‘presents made to the owner of the tree‘‘ suggests that the Christmas tree was put to a somewhat different use in those days. Mrs. Geo.
