The schcol board clain‘s the sum of $1,180.90 from the muvcipality, At Kirkland Lake recently the police had apparently authentic information that a supply of alcohol was cached in a house at 49 McCamus avenue, but search failed to locate the goods. Eviâ€" dently they were been informed as to the exact location of the goods, but no _ door or moveable panel or other device could tbe located. Eventually they chopped a hole in the side of the house and thus reached the cache. â€" There were 28 galion tins of alcohol in the cache. ~‘The liquor was seized and Nick Cowell was charged wiith having illicit liquor.. He was fined $500.00 and costs, or four . moni:is in jail, pleading guilty to . the charge. <}>1» apparently preferred the jail term, eivner through lack of money or ‘plenty of {ime, for he went down to Hailleybury ic Christmas and the New Year.

REâ€"ELECTED BY ACCLAMATION IN COBALT AND COLEMAN ~_If any of our golfers are still unâ€" hooked tinder these rules, the royal and ancient may grab them under these three;:â€" And to make assurance doubly sure they append a few notes like these: Those who for remuneration allow their names or pictures to be used for adâ€" vertisements or the sale. of goods are pros.* And will that one hit the boys in their hip pockets! Moreover, those who permit their names to be advertised or published as authors of books or articles on golf of which they are not actually the authors. Can‘t you see our amateur ranks simply fading away? And what‘s to become of our hardworking ghost writers if the U.S.G.A. adopts the sanme cruel code? ’ To which the Royal and Ancient anâ€" swers that "those who teach golf for remuneration, either by personal deâ€" monstration, or by lecturing, or by alâ€" lowing themselves to be filmed," come within their definition of a pro. and that, if the nule is adopted by the U. S. G. A., at its annual meeting in Janâ€" uary, it will assuredly get Bobby and plentyâ€"oh, verily, plentyâ€"of the other simonâ€"pures.

According to a cable last week the R. and A. C.

Diâ€" rect and Indirect Profit Hit by Rule. : Kirkland Lake having its council elected by acclamation has deferred ‘the proposed vote on daylightâ€"saving time for the summer. There was no vote called for either Haileybury or Cobalt, although such a plan had been suggestâ€" ed for the time of the municipal elecâ€" tions. Hailleybury has not been enâ€" thusiastic on the daylightâ€"saving time Adea, simply going in withâ€"Cobaltâ€"and New Liskeard on the matter. Cobalt has had so many real troubles in reâ€" gard to finances that apparently the expecteéed daylightâ€"saving byâ€"law was averlooked. There are many in Cobalt strongly against the â€" daylightâ€"saving idegd and these citizens will claim that a vote would show the people in generâ€" al do not favour the idea. It would appear that with most towns, the railâ€" ways, etc., on standard time, nothing but confusion and annoyance is caused. by ‘the adoption of soâ€"called daylightâ€" saving by a few towns and cities. The suggestion that it be forced on all by making it Dominionâ€"wide is utterly wrong, because there is little doubt that popular vote throughout the country woulld be against it. The frmers are against it and so are most of the mothers, while there is considerable differnce of opinion among others. It;i would seem to be the ‘best plan fori the towns of the North to forget about this soâ€"called daylightâ€"saving plan. Chief Styles, of Kapuskasing, has been in the Sensenbrenner hospital at Kapuskasing suffering from abdominal injuries resulting from kicks received while he and a provincial police officer were making an arrest. The man arâ€" rested was reported to be a "tough guy" and when the officers were approaching the man it is said that he suddenly kicked the Kapuskasing chief in the stomach. He also injured the provinâ€" cial officer, though not seriously. He was eventually subdued, however, and is now awaiting trial at Cochrane for his attack on the Kapuskasing chief, the prisoner being remanded until the actual amount of injury done to the chief is known. For a time it was not known whether the Kapuskasing offiâ€" cer was fatally injured or nct. Chief Styles though staying with the prisoner until he was duly arrested was quite seriously injured in any event. l SHOULD FORGET ABOUT THE SOâ€"CALLED DAYLIGHT SAVING } i l From Iroquois Falls there comes reâ€" port that counterfeit quarters are in in thatâ€"town. There have been no reports made in Timmins of these spurious coins being passed, but it might be as well for all handling money to watch for the bad quarters. At Troquois Falls it is said that a numâ€" ber of ‘the counterfeit 25â€"cent coins have been in circulation there for some time, several noticing them in change. The bad quarters are said to be very good imitations and not likely to be detected at a casual glance. They are little lighter than the good coins and also the msetal of which they are made is soft. By these two points they may be distingu‘shed but unless weight and feel are carefully noted they are goodâ€" enough to pass without attenition being given ‘them. j Chief at Kapuskasing Seriously Hurt by Kick Counterfeit Quarters Reported in Circulation CANADA NORTHERN FOWER CORPORATION, LIMITED CcONTROLLJNG AND QMG TIMMINS, QNTARIO, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7TH, 1933 No need to.worry over yo w Christmas shopping list or to wonder how you‘re going to rqueeze it into your budget.

The discovery is reported as ‘being made by Pete Mcâ€" Donough, one of the McDonough broâ€" thers, noted for their work as prospecâ€" tors in this North Land. The McDonâ€" oughs havrves a number of good finds to their credit in Northern Ontario, espeâ€" clal mention being made recently of their. work in the Matachewan section. Now they are apparently adding Northâ€" western Quebec ‘*to ‘their list. Men coming in from Amos, Quebec, say /gm.t the McDonough discovery in the ‘Senâ€" , neterre district is the most outstanding gold find of the year. The discovery is reported as being a coarse gold showing _of wide area and that assays taken run “finto very high figures. It is tIn shoftt the kind of find that makes a rush, and there is a rush on. A number of prosâ€" pectors left Amos last week for the new field and others are on the way from cther districts. One despatch in reâ€" ferring to the discovery says:â€""For years, Peter McDonough and his broâ€" ther, Joseph B., have been prominentâ€" ly identified with mining in Quebec and Ontario, and they are well rememâ€" bered as the original stakers of such properties as the Amulet, Arnfield, Sourdough, in Matachewan, adjoining Mining Corporation‘s gold producer, the Ashley, and a number of others. A shipment of samples from the latest McDonough discovery find are en route to Ottawa for official assay and checkâ€" up." The next regular meeting of the town council is scheduled to be held on Monday, Dec. 1l1th, commencing at 4 p.m. Pete McDcenough, Wellâ€"Known Prosâ€" pector, Said to have made the Outâ€" standing Discovery of the Year in Northwestern Quebec.

Just why the fire department should be expected to look after stray kittens will puzzle most people. There seem to be lot of people who have the idea, "Something should be done about it!" and accomâ€" panying this thought always with the other suggestion, "Let George do it!" The last two of the five summer airâ€" port construcdtion camps in this part of the North are now being closed down for the winter. These two are the ones at Porquis Junction and Tudhope. At these camps there are about 100 to 110 workers and these men are being transâ€" ferred at present to the winter airport camps at Nakina. Inside of a few days there will be work in progress at only the winter camps, arrangements havyâ€" ing been made for the carrying on or work all winter at the Nakina camp and two or three other camps, referred to as winter camps. In the past three weeks the summer construction camps at Emsdale, South River and Ramore have been discontinued for the winter. With the closing down now of the Tudâ€" hope and Porquis Junction camps, it will mean only the winter camps will be carrying on. All employed atâ€" the summer camps have ‘been given the opportunity of being transferred to the winter camps so the move has not necessarily meant any further unemâ€" ployment. As illustrating the rather unusual ideas of some people as to the duties of different departments of public service, the case in Sudbury recently may be quoted. A woman called up ‘the fire SOME PEOPLE EXPECT A LOT FROM THE FIRE FIGHTERS WSCume‘ . T‘wo More Airport Camps Now Being Closed Down ‘"Take my chair," he said, as soon as the leader was pointed out. "You‘re in charge of this." ‘"‘There weren‘t enough chairs to g0o around in the minister‘s office, and that made the delegates even madder. "But the Honorable Wesley was equal to ‘the occasion. "Who‘s the spokes- man here?" he asked. Captures by ‘Dil')loma'cy An example of the diplomacy of the Honorable W. A. "Wes." Gordon, KC., which will appear to readers who know him personally, is contained in the weekly column of anecdotes from Otâ€" tawa by Wilfred Eggleston, corresponâ€" dent of the Toronto Daily Star. This is the clipping: "Charming anecdote passed on to me about Hon. Wesley Gordon. An angry delegation from the railwaymen came to see him when those salary negotiaâ€" tions were at their most volcanic. "Minister from North" Instead ‘they demanded 60 cents an hour â€"pay for any work they might do. "There is nu use of you coming here any . more,"" said Mayor‘â€" Stewart. ‘Werenotgvmgtonstentoyou. Taxâ€" payers don‘t owe you anything. You single unemployed are getting all you‘re going to get." Remember, it is just before election time in Teronto and the agitators must certainly have carried their troubleâ€" to an e trtent when the mayor wil talt to them as o did. reâ€" membering the time of the year, There is a chance that Kirkland Liake and Coleman township may have to appeal to the courts to decide who is responisible for the maintenance of a child in the Hospital for Sick Children at Toronto. Both seek to have the other municipality accept responsibility and there is something to be said on each side in this case. The mother had the child with her in Kirkland Lake before the youngsier was taken to the hospital, so Colem:.: says Teck township is responsible. Th father of the child lives near Cobalt in the township of Coleman, so Kirklan«\ Lake says Coleman should pay for the keep of the youngster and collect f1am the father, if possible. "You‘re just a bunch of kickers! (Get ~Out!" This is the way Mayor of Toronto replied to a group prete:ding to representing single unâ€" employ‘ed men of the city last week. These inen were living in the hotels and objected to the city‘s work test. TORONTO‘S MAYOR CALLS A GROUP "A BUNCH OF KICKERS" ‘Pelletier was given three years for an offence against a young girl and on a similar charge a man named St. Arâ€" mond was sentenced to one year. Frank Gubutich and Mitro Nestruk, charged with taking! part in the riots at Rouyn in May last year were each sentenced to one year in jail. Joseph Marier, a former taxi driver of Rouyn, was given two years in the penitentiary for theft from Rouyn couple.| Gerard Thouin, Francois Beaudoin and Gregorie Borâ€" deleau, all of Le Reine, Que., were each sentenced to two months‘ imprisonmentt on charges of perjury. The three youths admitted giving false testimony in the trial of Raould St. Armond, charged with an offence against a young woman at La Reine. Following the trial the youths admitted to ‘the girl‘s father that their evidence as to the character of the girl had been unâ€" true, and made simply to "help out" the accused. They expressed a willingâ€" ness to make public declaration in the, parish church as to the falsity of their reflections on the young girl‘s characâ€" ter. The father brought the matter to the attention of the crown prosecutor, who at once charged the youths with perjury. Within two weeks of their false testimony they were sentenced to two months‘ imprisonment for perjury. The girl slandered was only 134 years of age. SEEKING DECISION‘AS TO RESPONSIBILITY FOR CHILD At the Court of the King‘s Bench held at Amos, Que., there were four charges of manslaughter,, though one of these, that of a charge against a wife of 16 years of age, was changed to attempting to conceal the birth of a child. Joseph Lukewieski, convicted a year ago of murder and sentenced to be hanged for the murder of Steve Olechuk in Noranda in April, 1932, and 'who was granted a new trial on the plea ‘that all the evidence in his beâ€" half had not been heard, was tried for manslaughter and sentenced to twentyâ€" five years in penitentiary. Clement Lachapelle, 18 years old, was another tried on a manslaughter charge, in conâ€" nection with the death of his infant child in Rouyn in March last. The evidence showed that he took the baby from the Youville hospital a couple of days after its birth, and some days latâ€" er it was found in packsack in a Rouyn business place, the baby‘s neck showing marks suggesting it had been choked. Lachapelle and his wife, agâ€" ed 16 years, were both charged first with murder, but the charge against Lachapelle was reduced to manslaughâ€" ter while that against the young wife was charged to one aitempting to conceal the birth of a child. The judge Mr. Justice Provost, considered the crime of Lachapelle as a particularly serious and revolting one and he sentâ€" enced him to imprisonment for life, the | extreme penalty. Lachavelle heard the sentence without apparent emotion. The young wife was sentenced to ten months, to date from the time of her arrest, leaving her only about a month to serve. Joseph C. Morin, charged with the murder of Victor Sevigny in a drunken row in Rouyn last year, was found guilty of manslaughter and sentâ€" enced to twentyâ€"five years in prison. The death of Sevigny apparently reâ€" sulted from a quarrel starting in a blind pig, when Morin is said to have fractured the other man‘s skull by a blow from a piece of firewood, the vicâ€" time dying twelve hours later. A man named Jean, arrested in the Sisecoe disâ€" trict and charged with living on ‘the avails of prostitution, was given a term of six years in the penitentiary. On a somewhat similar charge A. Legault was given, three_years, _A man _named ?Eife%féz% was given three years for an J ustice Meted Out in Amos, Que., Cases Three Sentenced on Charges of Man slaughter. â€" Wife of 16 Given Short Term. â€" Youths Sentenced for T.
