The Sudbury Star last week exâ€" plains it this way:â€"‘‘Fewer drunken men are seen on the streets these days, and possibly this is because back in the days of the open saloon, when men spent their money on good whiskey instead of fine automobiles, it was comparatively safe for a drunken man to walk in the streets."‘ This oldâ€"established company is again making additions to its plant at Ottawa, having in course of erecâ€" tion a new racking room, chilling building, ale storage and garage, and installing new brewmg equipment.

Marshallâ€"cclestone Limited Schumacher Timmins South P Constable Trulove, of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, has more or less fame for the long trips he has to take under rather unusual conditions to secure prisoners and witnesses for cases that come to the attention of the law in the far north. Recently Conâ€" table Trulove had another of these long trips. He travelled about one thousand miles in the north to seeure a prisoner and necessary witnesses in one case. Moreover, most of the thousand miles was made on snow shoes. The weather was not too warm either, at times, but the full trip was safely made, and prisoner and witnesses duly landed at Cochâ€" rane. â€" Further, Constable Trulove not only got his man, but later he secured a conviction, the accused being senâ€" tenced at Kapuskasing some days ago to a term of three years at Kingston. The prisoner in the case was a Cree Indian named Jacob Mattonas, living near Pagwa, a trading post beyond the Albany River. The charge against the Indian was that of seriâ€" eus offences against his own daughâ€" ters, young women of 22 and 25 years of age. The young women also had to be brought in as witnesses. Conâ€" stable Trulove made the trip and carâ€" ried through his duties with his usual efficiency and thoroughness. _ The journey took several weeks to make.

The water poured down on the fine stocks in the store and also ran into the cellar where further stocks were damaged. Fine faee powders, stationery, packâ€" age goods and drugs and chemicals were bady injured by the water and ice. The discovery was made Tuesâ€" day mormnng before eight o‘clock when Mr. Moisey went to the store to open it for the day‘s business. The water seemed to have been over everything in the store and it appeared as if all the stoicks were ruined. â€" Careful checkinâ€"up of the stock and the salâ€" vaging if everything not ruined showâ€" ed that while matters were not as bad as they seemed the damage would still to ‘at least three thousand dollarsand possibly would reach four thousaid. The lursting of the water pipes was caused by the blowing open of a winâ€" dow in the upstairs part of the buildâ€" ing. (The storm evidently blew this windoy in, allowing the intense cold outside to do its work on the water pipes. The pipes, with the below zero wind lowing on them, did not take long t freeze and burst, flooding the buildig upstairs and down. The water coming through from Dr. Joyal‘s office upstairs did the most serious damage to the Moisley Ball stocks.

CLUB SATURDAY will The Jones property in Deloro has been under development for some time past,. and reports of the richness of its ore have been very frequent. Specâ€" tacular ore has been shown from the property from time to time. There is a good mining equupment on the property and about fourteen men have been at work there recently. There is a shaft down some 65 feet. The ore has been rich enough to warrant the bagging of the highâ€"grade and the bringing of it out to town for shipâ€" ment to a mill. Under the new ownerâ€" ship it is understood that a mill will be erected shortly on the€ property so that the ore may be treated at the mine. There is said to be every inâ€" dication of a considerable body of rich ore. Mr. Peter MacLaren, a wellâ€"known mining engineer who was in the (Poreupine in the early days and has always kept up a connection here, is understood to have been enâ€" caged to make a full and detailed reâ€" port on the property for the Toronto interests concerned. Mr. John Jones, the owner of the Deloro «claims in question, has long been a wellâ€"known figure in this and other sections of the North Land. He has had many claims in the various mineral areas of this country, from this district right clean to James Bay and beyond. He was among the early prospectors into the Red Lake area and he also has done considerable prospecting in the James Bay area and at Belcher Isâ€" lands, north of James Bay. Reports in town this week are to the effect that the property owned by Mr. John Jones and on which he has done considerable actual mining work, has been taken over by strong financial interests in Toronto. It is underâ€" stood that the Toronto men are payâ€" ing approximately $550,000.00 for the property. Proverty Owned by John Jones Unâ€" derstood to be Taken Over by Toronto Interests. OHLORC PROPERTY SAWD TO B SOLD FOR $550,000 was granted to allow opportunity for the production of proof of the age of one of the girls. The cases will be proceeded with next week. Mr. A. C Brown appeared for Hough, and Mr. Dean Kester, honorary solicitor for the District C.A.S., was in charge o! the case for the prosecution. At the police court this week reâ€" mands of a week were granted in the cases against Mrs. Mary Peterson and Kusti Matson. _ Both were charged with illegally selling liquor, while Mrs. Peterson also faced a charge of keeping a disorderly house. he charges were preferred by the town police. Bail was granted the couple who will appear again next week to answer to the charges. A girl of about 18 was accused of stealing a fur cap from a local store. The young lady said‘ ‘she wanted it to give it as a New Year‘s present to her brother at whose house she was living. The cap was recovered at the broâ€" ther‘s house and because investigation pointed to the brother having knowâ€" ledge of the matter he was charged with being accessory to the tn‘it Both the accused were allowed to go on suspended sentence, the cap being returned to its lawful owner. Provincial Officer Geo. Delves had a charge of selling liquor against Roâ€" bert St. Pierre. The latter did not answer to his name, and a bench warâ€" rant was issued for his arrest. St. Pierre had been in court before on the charge and had been allowed out on hbail, the security being an automoâ€" bile now claimed by another person. _ A wage case was disposed of by the. man who was charged with owing a girl fourteen days‘ pay being ordered to pay $10.00 in settlement.

Four others with Nerby got off withâ€" out mishap. It is thought that Nerâ€" by‘s hands becoming numbed caused him to let go at the wrong moment. Timmins, according to the viewpoint of the management of the Juniors, has no reason to be ashamed of the play Tuesday night. It was the first time that any of the Timmins team hbad played on Iroquois Falls ice, and was the first game in Junior company. Practically all theâ€"Timmins boys last year were playing Juvenile. . Laâ€" fflamme had the illâ€"fortune to be hit in the face by the puck just as he stepped on the ice, and so was iput out of the game for the evening. Krupka was off two or three times during the game, through injuries, but always came back strong. _ Hudson and GHallanardo held Melntyre and Kilby in good check. _ Most of the goals were secured on rebounds. Three of the goals for the Fails were actually seored off skates or sticks of Timmins players. The following were the lineâ€"up :â€" Timminsâ€"Boulley, goal; Krupka, right defence; Croteau, left.defence; ()"*Connor, centre; Hudson, right wing; CGiallanardo, left wing; Ostroâ€" sky and Laflamme, spares. _ Craig, qll)â€"fl()dlw lmquoh Fallsâ€"Kers, goal; Hogg, rizht defence; Mah(mo_\. left defence; Timmins Juniors Lose to Speedy and Experienceda Paper Town Team, 5b to 4. The first match in the Junior N.0O. HA.A. schedule for this group was played at Troquois FPalls on Tuesday evening, Timmins Juniors meeting deâ€" feat to the tune of 15 to 4. The Iroâ€" quois Falls lads outclassed the local boys, being heavier and more experiâ€" enced. The game was clean, Timmins having only four minor penalties, and Iroquois Falls five. The seore at the end of the first period was 5 to 0 in favour of the Falls ; 9 to 1, at the end of the second ; and 15 to 4 at the end of the third. There was a good atâ€" tendance at the game, though no fans from Timmis, on account of there being no special. The Falls people were well pleased with the brand of hockey put up by the Timmins team. The management of the latter team is also pleased, pointing out that it was a good showing to make against as strong a team as the Falls.

H. Joanisse, wanted by the police in connection with one of the unsolved mysteries of the north. Joanisse, it is alleged, disappeared suddenly, following the murder of Petrus Vanghuelewa, a Belgian gambâ€" ler, who was found beaten to death in his shack at Smooth Rock Falls,. The crime was committed in 1925 and in spite of the fact that a countryâ€" wide search was instituted no trace could be found of the missing man. Photographs and miuute descriptions were sent to the various police staâ€" tionsâ€"of the scountry. When last heard of, Joanisse was said to have been in Rouyn. Last Friday night a man was picked up who is said to resemble closely the wanted man. He was registered at the Empress Hotel under the name of Parraic. He was remanded on a nominal charge of vagrancy pending further investigaâ€" tion by the police.‘‘ | MAN ARRESTED MAY BE ONE WANTED FOR MURDER CASE.

It is expectâ€" ed that this campaign will be comâ€" menced @wbout the fifteen or twentieth of this month. In the meantime, reâ€" ports now are to the effect that an electrical survey of the property was started this week as a preliminary to the diamord drilling. It is underâ€" stood that the idea is to plot out the boundaries of the ore bodies already indicated by surface work. _ Under this plan it is thought that the diaâ€" mond drilling will prove more econoâ€" mical as well as more effective. ELECTRICAL SURVEY HAS STARTED ON THE ACONDA scheduled to be launched in January and the remaining two in the spring of 1929. The new vessels will have a speed of 17 4 to 19 4 knots at sea.
