The girls involved in the case were three pairs of sisters, all under 14 years of age. According to the Crown Sherâ€" rill had often given them money to atâ€" tend theatres. The alleged assaults occurred in his suite, it was declared. "If he were half as old as he is," reâ€" marked Judge Coatsworth, "I would order him to be whipped." Sherrill, orginally an American, has been here most of his time for 15 years, but has never become naturalâ€" ized. His Honor recommended his deâ€" portation at the completion of the sentence." "Charles L. Sherrill, the 72â€"yearâ€"old mining man, who was a prominent Crown witness several months ago at the trial of Charles L. Manaton, and who later sued the King Edward Hotel for the value of some gems which he alleged were stolen from his room, was sent to the Ontario Reformatory for from one to two years, when beâ€" fore Judge Coatsworth yesterday he pleaded guilty to six charges of inâ€" decent assault. Some years ago Charles L. Sherrill was well known in the Porcupine on account of his connection with mining ventures here. More recently he has been receiving publicity on account of alleged irregularities in connection with the West Dome Lake Consolidatâ€" ed, the secretary of this company beâ€" ing charged with the theft of shares of the stock of the company. Last week Sherril received further undesirâ€" able publicity through his trial at Toronto on six charges of indecent assault. The Mail and Empire reports the case as follows:â€" A radio tower is the latest device used by the forestry department of the Ontario Government to perfect its syâ€" stem of fire protection throughout the northlands of the province. The towâ€" er is located at Maple Mountain in the Temagami reserve, and is of the standâ€" ard design used by the department in other parts of Northern Ontario. Its steel frame is 80 feet in height and has superâ€"imposed on it a little octaâ€" gonal watchâ€"room in which during the dry season a man is on duty from eight o‘clock in the morning until dusk blots out his extensive horizon. There are 68 of these towers spread over the northern forest area, but the Temaâ€" gami station is the only one which has been equipped with radio transmitter and receiver. CHAS,. L.

Tables very attracâ€" tively set, a menu of special excellence, and perfect service made the repast one of the most successful ever held in the North. There were many merâ€" ited compliments to the Empire hotel and its management for the complete service and the notable excellience of the banquet throughout. There were printed menus for the banquet, the title page of the menu card reading:â€"â€" "Farewell Banquet to Mr. Geo. E. Cole. By the Staffs of the Porcupine Mines. Empire Hotel, Timmins, Ont., on Friâ€" day, September 2ist, 1928." The menu itself, either for quality or attractiveâ€" ness would not be excelled anywhere. The farewell banquet to Mr. Cole was one of the most successful events of its kind ever held in the North. The arrangements had been made in perfect way, and the only regret of the evening was the knowledge that the occasion signified the early loss to the district of an official of unusual talent and integnity and a citizen of outâ€" standing public spirit and high charâ€" acter, During his work in this district Mr. Cole has proven so pronounced a sucâ€" cess as an official and a citizen that it was felt that his departure from here should not pass unnoticed and due expression should be given to the appreciation felt for his services and his good citizenship. Accordingly, the staffs of the Porcupine Mines last weelk arranged a farewell banquet to Mr. Cole at the Empire Hotel, Timmins, the event being on Friday evening, Sept. 21st, 1928, in the Empire Hotel grill room. Mr. Geo. E. Cole, who has been Onâ€" tario Mining Inspector for the Porâ€" cupine Mining Division for the past eight years, has resigned from that position and will leave shortly for Winnipeg where he will take the office of Chief Inspector of Mines for Maniâ€" toba, a posxtion recently created in view of the increasing importance of mining in the western province.

Sutherland, chief inspecâ€" tor of Mines for Ontario, was asked to propose the toast to the honoured guest of the evening, Mr. Geo. E. Cole. w#witer a humorous introduction in which Mr. Sutherland referred to the genial part Mr. Cole had "taken in the gatherings of the Mining Association, where it had been accepted as an axiom that a man could not stay in the mining game and retain his hair and his goodnessâ€"at the same time, the speaker referred in more serious vein ONT. i A new species of rea clover, which R. J. Webb, Thornloe farmer, believes will prove a valuable crop in Temisâ€" kan'xing. is attracting some attention in the district. Known as Montgomâ€" ery Red Clover, it is a native of East Africa, but the seed from which Mr. Webb, who had a sample on display at the recent fair in New Liskeard, where it was closely inspected by farâ€" mers, has been trying out the species for two years past, and he believes it to be the finest clover that can be secured. The sample displayed was in the straw, but the seed was well maâ€" tured. The plant grows to a height of about five feet, matures about July Ist. and after being cut and saved, a second crop of feed is secured before fall frosts intervene. Mr. Webb says there is a demand for the seed at a dollar a pound, and he claims the yield to have been 300 pounds to the acre. He is enthusiastic over the prospects for the clover, says there is no other place where the seed can be obtained and intends to devote more ground each year to the crop. The seed was obtained with difficulty from Wales, Mr. Webb says, where the cliâ€" mate is such, he claims, that the cloâ€" ver does not readily mature. piano.
