TORONTO, ONTARIO Drink Ovailtine every da s CVCVJ] 140 Last week the magnificent new store of the Canadian Department Stores, Limited, was opened at North Bay by the T. Eaton Co. The North Bay Nugget describes the new store as the finest store in the North Land, comâ€" modious and upâ€"toâ€"date in every respect. Big crowds attended the opening. EATON STORE IN NORTH BAY FINEST IN THE NORTH LAND PRISONERS FROM BURWASH MAKE ESCAPE INTO WOORS Two inmates of Burwash Industrial Farm, while engaged at roadwork last Wednesday, escaped from custody and nave not since been seen. The pair, Francesco Kozcusza and Anton Chraâ€" pusta, both of Polish extraction, were sentenced last January from Toronto, the former for breaking and entering, and the latter for bigamy. They eludâ€" ed the attention of guards by strolling into the woods, and are the first to make a successful escape from the Industrial Farm for eight months. The new Children‘s Aid Shelter at Sudbury is to be formally opened on April 29th and 30th. Hon. Chas. Mcâ€" Crea, Minister of Mines, and Hon. Linâ€" coln Goldie, Provincial Secretary, are to be present for the occasion. Th2 Sudbury Shelter has recently been completed at a cost of about $37,000.00 ourishing 219 wA s nc Ten years ago Timmins organized for a big baseball season. At the orâ€" ganization meeting, letters were read from Cochrane and Iroquois Falls agreeing to the forming of a district league. It was decided to hold a mecting at Iroquois Falls at an early date to complete the organization of the district league. In the matter of the town baseball league, it was signiâ€" fied that the Hollinger, the Firemen and the Town would each have a team, while Schumacher was also expected to come into this league. An execuâ€" tive, including Messrs S. R. McCoy, Chas. Sheshan, Geo. Lake and C. M. Auer, was appointed to act with the president, Fire Chief Borland, in all matters of importance. H. W. Hookâ€" er was secretary of the Timmins Baseâ€" ball Club. Reference to the growth enjoyed by Timmins in a few short years was emâ€" phasized by the following paragraph in The Advance of April 16th, 1919:â€" "An interesting sidelight on the wonâ€" derful growth of Timmins is given by the difference in the annual sleighing parties given by Mr. H. Mulheron to the school children of the town. In 1913 Mr. Mulheron decided it would be a nice thing to treat all the school children here to sleighâ€"ride party. That year a single cutter and a doubleâ€" seated rig accommodated all the childâ€" ren going to school here at that time. The school was then in the building later occupied by Preston‘s Wholesale. Miss K. Power was the teacher. The sleighâ€"ride party for the school childâ€" ren became an annual affaitr. But what a difference in the accommodaâ€" tion necessary. Last year (1918) it took 32 big sleighs to accommodate all the school children for the annual winter event, there being over 700 children enjoying Mr. Mulheron‘s hospitality." Mr. Jas. Hylands, of Cobalt, organized the Cobalt Citizens‘ Liberty League, was in Timmins ten years ago crganizing a branch here. In an inâ€" terview with The Advance Mr. Hylands said that it was the intention to form branches of the Liberty League all over Canada. He also commented to the effect that he had received great enâ€" couragement in Timmins and district. The chief purpose of the Liberty Leaâ€" gue was to oppose what was considerâ€" ed oppressive legislation along temâ€" perance lines. "If the ordinary man will only take an interest and join in the organization for the preservation of personal liberty, freedom will reâ€" main in this country, but otherwise it goes altogether," said Mr. Hylands who called special attention to the fact that the Dominion and Provincial Govâ€" ernments were continually passing prohibition acts, all directed against the rightful and just liberty of the citizen. W. S. Macpherson was apâ€" pointed secretary of the Liberty League here The Advance téen years ago made brief reference to the straw vote taken. by The Pas, Manitoba, Herald among its readers as to the liquor license law in Manitoba. â€" Each ballot was signed by the voter and there was no duplication of voters, ‘There were 157 votes cast, 123 of these being for the sale of light wines and beers. Thirtyâ€" one of the "straw" voters wanted the old license system back again, while only 3 of the people voting were in favour of prohibition. . Some of the voters took opportunity to advocate the sale of light wines and beers in grocery stores, and the sale of alcohol in drug stores. Others suggested that the law be changed so that anyone who wanted to could sell light wines _and beers, There was almost a total vote against the idea of prohibition. Ten years ago South Porcupine Oorâ€" ganized an athletic association to overâ€" see all sports in that town. Football and baseball were the two sports to be specially featured, but others were conâ€" sidered. H. G. Laidlaw was the preâ€" sident of the South Porcupine Athleâ€" tic Association and J. R. Meyers the secretary. Ten years ago The Advance noted | the many welcome arches for returned | soldiers in this North Land. Among* the particularly attractive arches that won special comment from travellers were the ones at Timmins, Iroquois Falls, Hearst, New Liskeard, Cobalt and Haileybury. A Sudbury barrister who had occasion to visit the North Land made the remark:â€""The stations along the T. ‘ N. O., practically without exâ€" ception, all have welcome arches for the returned soldiers, and the idea of the welcome arch is an attractive one, not only as a mark of honour for the returning soldier, but also as an eviâ€" dence of the enterprise of the towns and their loyvalty to the men coming back from overseas." Considerable space was given in The Advance of April 16th, 1919, to the preâ€" liminary trial before the magistrate here of a young Polish girl charged with the murder of her infant daughâ€" ter. The body of the infant was found in shack in Moneta, all marks having »een cut from the clothing left on the â€"hild and there being absolutely no clues as to indentity of the dead child. At first consideration, it appeared to be a hopeless task for the police to exâ€" resenting a case that was a remarkâ€" ible example of careful investigation, ~lever deduction and elimination and affective gathering and presertation of evidence. After hearing the evidence presented, Magistrate Atkinson comâ€" sect to unravel the mystery. However, he case was put in the hands of R. Allen, special agent, and his patience and ability sucqgzseded{ eventually in THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO mitted the girl accused to stand triali at Haileybury the following June. The girl was taken to North Bay jail and held there until the trial came on in June, 1919. Although the girl was ac-1 ‘quitted when the case came to trial, \that did not particularly detract from the credit due for the case built up so cleverly on so puzzling a foundation. The girl was found guilty of neglecting the child but was allowed to go on ‘suspended sentence for this, it being 'felt that the lesser charge should not be made much of while the murder hearing was pending, The prosecuâ€" tion was not able to supply the one | linkâ€"as to who left the child where it ‘died. The evidence at the trial here proved that the firl was at Porquis Junction on Feb. 13th, 1919, and then was carrying a baby. The clothing on the baby found in Moneta was posiâ€" tively identified as the same as that worn by the child at Porquis Junction. Crown Attorney F. L. Smiley suggested that the crown had further evidence relating to the actions and movements of the young wom in that would make ; the case still clearer when witnesses| were brought from certain places in the |â€" south. During the hearing of the case‘ the accused most of the time sat with | hbhead, but did not otherwise seem to be much affected by the seriâ€" â€" ousness of the case against here. When a button dropped off one of the garâ€" ments in court as an exhibit the girl laughed, and on leaving the court at! the end of the trial here, she had| ready smiles for some acquaintances. Chief of Police J. E. Wilson, of Timâ€" mins, told clearly of the finding of the| body, and was corroborated by Arthur | Mayhew, driver for the Northern Caâ€"| nada, who was called by the to convey the body to the morgue.‘ T. Easton identified the clothing | worn by the child when the body came! to his charge. Mrs. Burgerhoudt, of Porquis Junction, identified the accus-l ed as the young woman coming to her | hotel in February. Mrs. Burgerhoudt | had fed and changed the baby. She‘ put on a new diaper on the child, this | being ‘made by her by tearing a corâ€" | ner out of one of the sheets. She re-i coznized the diaper as the one pro-! duced in court, and also produced thei sheet from which it had been tom.' The cormer was fitted back and it was easy to see that the piece in question% hnad been taken from the sheet in t.he| way described by Mrs. Burgerhoudt. The baby‘s clothing was also identiâ€" fied by this witness, who further statâ€" ed that she had given special attention to the child because it seemed cold, poorlyâ€"ncurished, and cried muct, though otherwise apparently healthy. Evidence was also given by the young§ daughter of Mrs. Burgerhoudt, Mrs. W. H. Wilson, Dr; Moore, Pete Orpel, T. Chewan, R. Richardson and others, building up an impressive chain o> circumstantial evidence. In summing up Crown Attorney Smiley referred to the child at Porquis Junction and on the train, and the straight identificaâ€" tion of the clothing, etc. Passing reâ€" ference was also made to the stories and attitude of the accused. The crown had other witnesses from Toâ€" ronto, but he felt that sufficient eviâ€" dence had been presented to warrant committal fer trial. Solicitor D. W. O‘Sullivan, for the defence, emphasizâ€" ed lack of agreement between witnesses. one material witness said she saw the accused on Wednesday the 13th, while the 13th was a Thursday. Anâ€" other witness had said the train was late that night, while the records <howed it to be on time. There was no direct evidence to show that the infant was alive when left or that a murder had been committed. No eviâ€" dence or statement was made by the accused, further than that implied by the plea of not guilty. In tne issue of The Advance of April 16th, 1919, reference was made to the reforestation programme for the year of the Abitibi Power and Paper Co. The company asked for the coâ€"operaâ€" tion of the Commission of Conservaâ€" tion in the work. Other pulpwood companies took up similar policies and M t 90 ul i 2x some interesting facts were discovered as a consequences. It was decided that it would take 50 to 100 years for spruce and balsam to grow to mercHantable size on cutâ€"over lands, whereas lumâ€". bermen generally had been figuring on thirty years. Another fact discovered was that where pulpwood species are cut down the new growth is predoâ€" minately hardwood. The Advance noted that this latter fact, vouched for by the Commission of Conservation, would seem to upset Mr. Boivin‘s theory regarding pulpwoeod! land being unâ€" suitable for agricultural purposes, his idea being that the softer woods grew on lard that would not sustain the other type of timber. "You can judge land by the kind of timber growing on it," Mr. Boivin cnce told the board of trade. "But how can land be judged thus, if it grows both kinds or all kinds of timber?" was the query askâ€" ed by The Advance. Ten years ago The Advance made| raference to the strike of the emâ€" ployees of the Canadian Express Comâ€" parny, the employees at Timmins being "out" alongz with all the other emâ€" ployees of the company. No Express matter was handled here for the Canâ€" adiazn Express Co. for the several days the strike continued. The strike was caused by the refusal of the compan~> to give sherter hours and increased pay after the Conciliation Board nad ; given an award practically endorsing the requests of the men. The comâ€" ces hm nssm mss is us snn m e comen mtc nc cce pany made one or two attempts to man the service of the T. N. O, One man got so far as Cochrane as messenger, but he could not handle the express alone. The Advance also recounted with satisfaction the experiâ€" ence of another man who came to Timmins as a strikeâ€"breaker. He. did | not have a very good time at all. No one was rough to him or even rude, but he could not get meals or room to suit him or even a cheery word. Hel eventually had to quit after working hard and accomplishing nothing. He hadn‘t enough to pay his way back to Toronto, but the company wouldn‘t help him because he was quitting and the men wouldn‘t help him because he had started. "The walking is good near Toronto," was all the comfort given him as he left here by train with his fare paid as far as Barrie or Oril-‘ | lia. After a few days the strike was called off, the company agreeing to practically all of the requests of the men. "The public view with satisfacâ€" tion the renewal of the service, the inâ€" convenience during the discontinuance‘, of the service being a noticeable one," | said The Advance. | | + following:â€""Mr. E. H. Hill returned | | this week from Haileybury where his |â€" =little girl, Edith, recently underwent“ | | minor operation. All will be pieased | to know that the little girl is now makâ€" ‘ing very satisfactory progress to comâ€" !plete recsovery."
