I He was given a remand until Friday of !this week, being allowed his freedom ‘on bail of $1,000.00. Pessah was arâ€" rested by Provincial Officer W. Noyes, formejly of Schumacher, the officer taking him in charge at Porquis Juntâ€" tion. When Pessah was searched it is said that he agad on his person some fifiyâ€"four ounces of gold. This gold, it is claimed, he had obtained in other than the legal way, and hence the charge was laid against him. Pessah, who is a native of Turkey, said he was a merchant and that he was innocent Iof any intentional breach of the law. !The facts of the case from both the | standpoint of the accused and from the | viewpoint of the police will likely be A special feature of the evening was the performance of Messrs Jago, Dockâ€" ing, Bawden and P. Toms, a quartette whose rendering of "I am wand‘ring down" and "Kentucky Babe," was A source of pleasant surprise to those present. The attention given to the various numbers was very noticeable and was much appreciated by the members of the choir. The Schumacher United Male Choir has been organized less than ten months, but under the able direction of Mr. Reginald Bawden they have made remarkable progress, and, as Dr. Honey mentioned in his opening reâ€" marks, the choir might well be regardec as the premier musical organization of ‘he Porcupine district. Dr. Honey callâ€" ecd attention to the opening chorus of Sunday‘s programme, "The Boys from Porcupine," set to the music of Maine University Stein Song, the vocal arrangement for ths choir and the speâ€" Programme of Christmas Carols and Other Numbers on Sunday Evening Delighted Music Lovers Here, "‘The Boys lLrom Poreuâ€" pine" a Special Hit of the Evening.

ANSONVILLE MAN CHARGED WITH HAVING HIGHâ€"GRADE (From The Northern Miner) Howey Gold Mines has started to pay off loans, which total close to $500,000, The Northern Miner learns from R. T. Birks president. The first payment, amounting to $20,000, was sent to W. S. Cherry a few days ago. It is exâ€" pected by officials that monthly payâ€" ments of $15,000 will be possible during 1931, and this plan to reduce the comâ€" pany‘s indebtedness out of earnings will likely be followed. Reâ€"organization has been considered, but as Mr. Cherry and his associates who loaned the company HOWEY GOLD MINES NOW REDUCING INDEBTEDNFSS mcney are not pressing for payment at this time the matter is being left in abeyance. The improvement in Howey‘s gold production in November, as compared with previous months, when $64,000 was recovered, has been continued into December. A fair operating profit is resulting. Last fall is became necessary for Howey to purchase the overâ€"winter supâ€" plies so as to take advantage of the water transportation from the railway, which is approximately cneâ€"half the ecst of winter sleighing. The supplies cost $125,000, and the balance of the money for this was advanced by Mr. Cherry. Previous advances covered the ccmpletion of the mill, power line, etc. With supplies for several months paid for, Howey‘s financial position is now being improved at a good rate. Labour and power costs, the two chief expendiâ€" tures at present total $32,000 a month, and until next summer it should be possible, in the view of the directors, to meet monthly payments on account of $15,000 and put aside a balance for later in the year, when supply purchases will again be heavy. | _ _South Porcupine, December 28th 1930 | Spec1al to The Advance. !

Quite a number of new regulations are being enforced at the skating rink. After a two weeks‘ checkâ€"up by some of the officials it was found that it was not humanly possible with one man as manager to cope with the various deâ€" vices that were being used to defraud the rink company of what was due them. At times some who were supâ€" posed to only be onlookers turned out to be really skaters, etc. Hence it was decided that all persons,with the exâ€" ceptions of shareholders in the rink and the hclders of season tickeis will be required to pay as they enter either to see the hockey club at practice or to watch the skaters. Parents or guarâ€" dians accompanying the younger childâ€" ren who are learning to skate will be admitted free unless they are themâ€" selves skating. Holders of shares in the Rink Company are allowed in free to view practices and skating, but not to skate. The girl in the ticket cffice and the manager have a list of the shareâ€" holders. Those with season tickets to the rink are admitted to all but hockey matches and carnivals. The rink has installed a $2,000 auditorium radiola. It is the same one which was used for demonstration purpose by the Canadian General Electric Company at the Canaâ€" dian National Exhibition this year.

On any night everyone with the exâ€" ceptions mentioned, will be required to pay at the gate, On New Year‘s Eve the skating will last until eleven anc then a mocassin dance is being staged.
