The rift in their doâ€" mestic affairs apparently started durâ€" ing the absence of Mrs. Grewcoe on a trip to her old home some years ago. Evidence was brought to show that Grewcoe and Miss Riley had been seen together in compromising situations, but some of the testimony adduced by S, A. Caldbick, Timmins barrister actâ€" | ing for Mrs. Grewcoe was commented \ on unfavourably by Mr. Justice Mcâ€" Evoy, who said he would reserve his | decision meantime. Both couples are | childless." l "Evidence in the divorce cases were quickly taken. In the first action ' brought by S. C. Platus, Timmins lawâ€" l yer on behalf of Mrs. Chittenden, it |was stated the latter‘s husband had left their home in Timmins in August, 1928, and that his wife had heard no ‘more of him until February 1 of this year, when he and Mrs. Elliott were registered at a Timmins hotel as man and wife. Mrs. Chittenden and a friend who had notified her of their presence in town had seen the couple together in this room at night, and subsequently the wife started proceedâ€" ings. <Proof of service on Chittenden ! in another province was made through f photograph produced in coukt. "An extensive list of 12 civil cases was whittled down to four hearings by settlements or adjournments. Four of these actions had been set down for jury trial but none materialized, the court being informed all had been settled out of court. Three of them were slander actions, two being from Schumacher and one from Kapuskasâ€" ing. The latter town also was the scene of the fourth case, which arose out of an automobile accident there The jury panel was dismissed followâ€" ing the return of the grand jury‘s reâ€" port in the George case.

"The first two divorce cases to be tried in this section of Ontario since the new law pecame effective in the province were before His Lordship, who granted dissolution of her marâ€" riage with Hardy A. Chittenden, Noâ€" randa, to Mrs. Annabel Chittenden, of Timmins, and who reserved his judgâ€" ment in the action borught by Mrs. Lillian Grewcoe, South Porcupine, against Henry Grewcoe, of the same place. In the first case Mrs. Jane Elâ€" liott was named correspondent, and Miss Cora Riley was third party in the other action. Neither of these women was served, as they could not be locatâ€" ed and it is understood they are both in the United States. Neither husâ€" band appeared in court. | The first divorce cases to be before a court in this part of the North Land, under the provisions of the act passed by the Dominion Government last year establishing a divorce court for Ontario, were heard by Mr. Justice McEvoy at Cochrane last week. The North Bay Nugget last week gave the following account of these cases in a despatch from Cochrane the despatch reading as follows:â€" First Divorces at Court at Cochrane Mr. Justice McEvoy Hears First Divorce Cases in This Part of the Province Under the New Act Passed by the Dominion ] Despatches from Cochrane last week , say that a manslaughter charge of unâ€" | usual nature was thrown out on Tuesâ€" day night by the Grand Jury at the spring assizes at Cochrane when a "No Bill" return was made to Mr. Jusâ€" tice McEvoy on the indictment against Roy George, C.

This booklet entitled "Handling of Exrioâ€" sives" will be issued free of cost to those in charge of operations, on application to the Chief Inspector of Explosives, Department of Mines, Ottawa. Common causes of accidents are failâ€" ure to take sufficient cover from proâ€" jected debris, the too hasty return to investigate an assumed misâ€"fire, and misjudging the rate of burning of the fuse. It is extremely important that all workmen should know that safety fuse burns at the rate of either thirty to forty seconds a foot according to brand used, but never at the rate of a foot a minute. Numerous accidents may be attributed to a wideâ€"spread misconâ€" ception of this fact. In view of the road construction and other cperations contemplated by piroâ€" vincial and municipal bodies and that are now in progress to relieve unemâ€" ployment, the Explosives Division of the Dominion Department of Mines is seeking the coâ€"operation of contractors in an endeavour to curtail the number of accidents caused by the handling of explosives. Officers of the Division find that in ordinary times accident occurâ€" rences are more marked in the case of small cperations than in those carried out on a large scale by organizations accustomed to such work. They are of the opinion that this may be due in plirt to lack of experience in the handlâ€" ng of explosives in such operations, alâ€" though sometimes long experience and immunity from accident seem to give rise to a lack of precaution. Helipful Booklet Issued to This End by the Explozives Divirion of the Doâ€" minion Department of Mines at Ottawa. So, as we stated above, there will be*no more of that kind of thing in Almonte now the boys have tucked away their sticks for another year. Urging More Care in Use of Explosives And the voice of George replied in guttural tones: "Hockey, old girl, hockey!" "Land sakes, George!" she demandâ€" ed in a shocked voice, "where have you been these last three days and nights?" Anyway when George was driven inâ€" to the yard at home and the horse came to a stop the kitchen door openâ€" ed and the figure of his stern wife apâ€" peared holding an oil lamp aloft. would summon a livery man to drive him to the farm. On one occasion when the cutter drove up to the hotel and George was about to start home he noticed a visiting hockey team with sticks and other gear, entering the place to wait for a train. The picture of these young men with their stitcks lingered in the old man‘s mind as he was driven homeward because he knew just enough about sport to distinguish between a hockey stick and a lacrosse stock though it is improbable he could have told the difference if the last mentioned weapon had not resembled a minnow net. in a terrible fight in which abusive language was used that did not sound well on the lips of two aged pillars of the communityv. With the passing of hockey for 1931, and with baseball an attraction of the future, married men around town who have been blaming their frequent abâ€" sences from the family hearth on hocâ€" key matches will have to search for other excuses. (From The Almonte Gazette) Hockey being over for another year Almonts is back to normal and wili likely stay that way until it becomes baseball conscious which usua@‘ly hapâ€" pens when the black flies and mosâ€" quitces are at their worst in the fair grounds. Hockey, Old Girl, Hockey, Answered the Old Man Made in aaaaaa css A great many people in Timmins have found the Timmins market of 1931, / great value to them, and these prople _the ,are anxious that the market continue "The work of installing the groceteria was under the direction of Mr. L. S. Morrison, of the Groceteria Supervision Office, who was assisted by Mr. Castle, of the same offics. Morrison was Speaking of the starting of the groceâ€" teria at New Liskeard, in which a reâ€" cord seemed to be made in the speed with which the buildfing in the Evans block, Whitewood avenuse, was comâ€" pletely overhauled, refitted and redeâ€" corated in less than two weeks, The New Liskeard Spizaker last week says:â€" OPTIMISM TN NEW LISKEARD CONTINUES THESE DAYS "So we can see that good may come from organization: After the charter is granted and the officers are apri>inted, then all matters in dispute as between the council of Teck, the merchants of Kirkland Lake and the official memâ€" bers of the association can be talked over, and an amicable understanding arrived at. "But our interested readers must not see in this Kirkland Lake Farmers‘ orâ€" ganization any connection whatever with the Temiskaming Marketing Board to which we have several times referred; and which will be applicable all over Temiskaming should the reâ€" commendations which have been forâ€" warded to the Government be carried out. This Kirkland Lake organization is an undertaking amongst the farmers which the promoters hope will prove to be helpful to every farmer in Temisâ€" kaming. The Speaker wishes all conâ€" nected with its success." "One can well understand that Kirkâ€" land Lake merchants will want each vendor to attend the market in person and not through a "middleâ€"man", and also that those who sell to Kirkland Lake citizens do a reasonable amount of shopping in that town. "But one can well understand that all of the farmers and gardeners are not always prepared to attend the marâ€" ket because they do not always have sufficient quantity of produce to sell to justify them in attending the market in person. In such cases they think they should be permitted to be repreâ€" sented by a neighbour. "Perhaps some of our interested readâ€" ers will wonder what is the ground for complaint concerning our farmers marâ€" keting in Kirkland Lake. Similar marâ€" keting has been carried on in Haileyâ€" bury and Cobalt for well over twenty years, and we have not heard that farâ€" mers have been asked to incorpprate so that they employ their own careâ€"takâ€" ers, look after the buildings, collect the fees, etc. | _ ‘"We thought it best to state the facts | fas they have come to us. Before ar-l rangements had been made with the§ T. N. O. Ry., to place a car once a| week at the disposal of those who wishâ€" f ed to sell products in Kirkland Lake: several meetings were held. Indeed, after all arrangements had been made, it was not until after the acting reeve of E Armstrong, Mr. Poupore, had accomâ€"| panied Mr. Kennedy, M.P.P,. to interâ€"; view Premier Ferguson that arrange-s ments with the Railway Commission | was arrived at. Mr. Lee, the chairman,| has always been sympathetic and willâ€" ing to go a long way to help the wople,, but he hesitated about undertaking to| put on the Kirkland Lake car until the| premier had been heard from. Well,.| the result, as shown by the fact that | the farmers are organizing to more perfectly carry on their marketing acâ€" i tivities justified all that The Speaker said when Mr. Poupore first started the agitation. |with as few restrictins as possible. At the same time there has been considerâ€" |able friction in other quarters relative to what is considered unfair features developing at the market here. In town there has been an idea that Kirkâ€" land Lake market has been conducted very successfully and with decided value to the people of that camp, as well as to the farmers and settlers. Now, it appears that Kirkland Lake market has not had all smooth sailing| and that efforts have been made there" to restrict the market or to place it under such rules as in the opinion of some of the farmers and settlers would mean its loss of usefulness. It would appear that opposition to the Kirkland | Lake market developed to such an exâ€" tent that the farmers concerned took measures to meet it and overcome the difficulties. There may or may nst be suggestions for Timmins in the plans! of the Kirkland Lake district farmers.| At any rate the case of Kirkland Lake will be of interest here. The case is | fully covered, it would seem, by a front| page article in The New Liskeard er last week. This article is given in full below. The Speaker says:â€" ’ ‘"We have been advised on good auâ€" thority that as the outcome of comâ€" plaints that the privileges of the Farâ€" mers‘ Market at Kirkland Lake are beâ€" ing abused, these complaints comingg from both marketâ€"vendors and morâ€"|! chants of the town, the farmers who attend the market every Friday havei decided to organize in the hope that all ‘ cause for friction may disapmear. The decision to organize was arrived at the marketâ€"building on Friday last, after the farmers and gardeners had consultâ€" ed Mr. Lillico, barrister. We believe over 50 persons signed the applicationl for incorporation knowing that the cost‘ would be about $150. | | | | Running of Market at Kirkland Lake Acccciation of the Hope of May be a f Farmers Organized in f Stopping all Friction. a Sugcgestion in This for Timnins.
