A lasso is used for the work and the new dog catcher is apparently very capable at the work as a comparative- ly large number of stray d gs have been taken in charge. The new dog catcher is still busy at the work, and will continue until the town is rid of stray dogs. MOTOR CARS HAD SOME HARD TRIPS ON THE FIRST OF JULY JMl IERM HlR 1W0 MEN DRUNK IN CHARGE 0F CARS Probably the two most important cases before Magistrate Atkinson at police court here this week were the two men charged with being drunk in a car. Both men pleaded guilty. Vic- tor St. John who attracted the atten- tion of the police on Saturday night by an apparent tendency to run the car he was driving up on the sidewalk. and Chas. Madison. who did not seem com- petent in his car on Fourth avenue, near the police station, were each givâ€" en a term of ten days. 1n the report last week of the re- zz'ular meeting of the town council The Advance referred to the discussion in regard to dogs running at large in town and mentioned the fact that auncillor A. G. Carson chairman of the police committee was authorized to secure a regular dog catcher to pick up stray dogs at large. Councillor Carson selected Mr. Jas. Roy, caretak- er at the town hall, to fill the post. and to judge from results the choice was a good one. Although only at the job a few days, the new dog catcher had picked up no less than 40 dogs running at large. These dogs have all been despatched to the pound where they await the call of an owner or the al- ternate fate of death. On the very first day in his new omclal capacity the present dog catcher picked up 16 dogs. A number from here went to Coch- rane by mot-or for the Firemen’s tour- nament in that town and enjoyed the 'day all right on Monday, but they scarcely enjoyed the motoring, especial- ly over the lake bottom near Con- naught. A number of the cars had to be pulled out. while all were delayed and were liberally splashed with mud. During the week-end a number also went to Kirkland Lake and other North Land centres, Iroquois Falls also hav- ing its usual quota of visitors from here by motor car. What some of the mo- torists say about the roads can not be published here. this being a respect- able family journal. It. is not difficult. however. to get. the idea that some parts of the road are not exactly per- iect. one week It was the early morning hoursâ€"and not so very earlyâ€"when some of them were able to make home again. Victor St. John 'and C. Madison Each Awarded Terms After Pleading to Charge Preferred Against For breach of the traffic law one citi- zen was assessed $1.00 and costs, or a total of $12.00. A charge of speeding brought a fine of $10.00 and costs. Six Russians found in the middle of a very interesting game early Sunday morning when Deputy Chief Orr and his merry men raided one house in town were each fined $5.00 and costs. They all pleaded guilty. A citizen accused of allowing his dog to run at large was given a remand for About Forty Dogs Here Picked Up in Past Week SOME OLD AND INTERESTING COINS IN POSSESSION HERE ‘Several references have been made recently to old coins found in different parts of Ontario or held in possession by the people. A few weeks ago The Advance made reference to old and in teresting coins held by an Eganville Citizen. To the instances already res lated may be added some very old coins 1 in the possession of Mrs. Chas. Wall-‘ ingford. Timmins. Among these old coins held for many years is a rare old “bank token" for one half-penny, dated 1887. This was found in the ground at Cumberland. Ont. about 16 miles from Ottawa. The coin is now crowding close to the century mark. It is well worn from much handling. Another coin in the collection is an 1877 penny. worn so much as to sug- gest that it had encountered many Scotsznen in its day. Still more worn is an 1862 penny. only the date and parts of the inscription being decipher- able. Among the more recent coins in the collection is an 189-1 penny that has seen a lot of service but is resting now ;:1 the collection. “On a charge of vagrancy Mrs. S. xrquette was fined $50.00 and costs. or hree months.

To the opening strains of Lohengrin's march, the bride attended by Miss Evangaline Ross. preceded by the little Misses Patricia Carson and Lorna Monck carrying baskets of flowers and strewing rose petals in her path, entered the living room on the . arm of her father. On Wednesday. July 3rd. at 9.30 am. the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Monck. Tlmmins. was the scene of a very pret- ty wedding when in the presence of a few of the immediate friends their daughter. Kathryn. was united in mar- riage to Mr. David Cragg Ross, of Oril- lia. Ont. The home was tastefully de- corated for the occasion with bridal arches and white satin ribbon, with banks of wild roses. PREHY HUIJSE WEDDING ON WEDNESDAY OF HIS WEEK Marriage of Miss Kathryn Monck and Mr. David Crag; Ross on Wednes- day. July 3rd. The young couple left by the noon train for North Bay. from whence they will proceed by motor on an extended trip through the Eastern Provinces to the bride's former home in Nova Scotia. The bride’s travelling suit was an en- semble of green and white silk crepe, with white felt hat, white shoes and stockings. Previous to her marriage the bride served on the public school teaching staff, while the groom is the owner and principal of the Ross Business Colleges throughout Ontario. The bride was dressed in a gown of ivory satin with seed pearls, wearing the conventional veil and carrying a shower bouquet of Ophelia roses, lily- of-the-valley and sweet peas. The bridesmaid wore a period frock of pearl taffeta and carried a bouquet of gold- en Ophelias. The little flower girls looked exquisite in their dainty frocks, Miss Patricia in pink, and Miss Lorna in blue. ‘ The groom was attended by his bro- ther. Mr. Robt. Ross. of New Liskeard. After the ceremony dainty refresh- ments were served. Hosts of friends here will join in ex- tending the sincerest good wishes. The T. N. 0. train due to reach here at 8.25 pm. was reported as eight hours late on Sunday evening, and as a matter of fact did not reach'here un- til about four o’clock on Monday mornâ€" ing. The cause for the delay was the disarrangement of traffic from the south owing to a wreck on the line. The wreck was near Sesekinika, some forty-eight miles south of Porquis Junction. A freight train got in traffic difficulties there. some four box cars getting off the line. It was estimated that it would take about eight hours to clear the line again, and this was done, the T. N. 0'. as usual making good time in getting traffic back to normal. As usual, also, no one was in- jured by the derailment of the box cars and practically little loss or dam- age occasioned by the incident. The presents were many and beauti- ful. Train Sunday Evening Delayed Eight Hours The grodm’s gift to the bride was a handsome dinner ring; to the bride- maid, a futuristic compact; to the flower girls, beaded bags; and to the groomsman and organist, cuff links each.
