Major Urquhart is an accomplished musician as he demonstrated well at the large Wednesday night meeting nwhen the hall was so crowded that ‘some of the audience could not find seats. He plays 36 instruments and ial.t-hcugh he did not bring them all | with him, novel instruments easily made in the house made a hit with the 'clhwd. ‘The major played ygrious on the mandolin, sleigh bells, lcaxpf'ntel s saw, a tin can with a string attached, kitchen utensils (a broom, «1ollmcr pin, tea kettle and two small ‘dxppcxs» fairy bells, guitar, mouthorgan ‘ and hand bells.

Included in the short programme was an Oobject lession in which three magic bottles were used. One bottle, representing the pure heart, contained â€" crystalâ€"clear water. . The second, »epresenting the bad heart, held a dark liquid. A few drops from the dark bottle were placed in the water and immediately it turned almost as dack as the other. Then a third botâ€" tle was proeduced, representing the purifying influence of Christ‘s word. Just a few drops from that in the liâ€" quid so recently turned dark and it became clear again. The children were enthusiastic apâ€" plauders of Major Urquhart‘s "magic." With all the evidence presented in the case of the trial of Bruno Hauptâ€" man on the charges of kidnapping and murdering the baby son of Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh, there is naturally conâ€" siderable question as to the probable cutcome of the trial. The possibilities of the trial are outlined clearly in a despatch received from Flemington, New Jersey, the little town in which the trial is being held. The despatch says that any of four things can hapâ€" pen to Bruno Richard Hauptman when his trial for the Lindbergh kidnapâ€" murder closes. They are: 1. The jury can acquit him. 2. The jury can convict him of first dozree murder, which carries the death penalty 3. The jury can convict him of murâ€" der with a recommendation for mercy, in which event the penalty would be life imprisonment. 4. The jury can disagree, necessitatâ€" ing a new trial. ossible Results of the Trial of Bruno Hauptman at 8.30 p.m. prompt, in the Oddfellows‘ Hall SPECIAL PRIZES Admission :â€"50c¢ ssxss\\\s3s\ssxsssssssssssssssssss\\\\\\s\\\\\\\\s\' » 4344 * * * * ' Major Relief Works Not to be Commenced 7’/”"/.’.’1”7’/’7.’”’?f?’fll.”’f?/f’ *8*%88%444444!44444* #* A despatch from Toronto last week to the effect that the Ontario Governâ€" ment had definitely put the bhrakes upâ€" on relief works expenditure was conâ€" firmed by a later despatch quoting Premier Hepburn in the matter. "There will be no major undertakings commenced from now on. That is the definite policy of the Government. We simply have not got the money," Preâ€" mier Hepburn, is quoted as saying. Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Norâ€" thern Development, who has been sufâ€" fering from a severe attack of influâ€" enza for the past two weeks, frankly admitted that other members of the Government had expressed alarm over his departmental expenditures. While Mr. Heenan stated that he has been unable to keep in close touch with all departmental affairs during his illâ€" ness, he said as far as he was aware, n> immediate move was contemplated to curtail the works program that had already been commenced. The FPrime Minister‘s declaration came when asked if the contract for the 11 miles of highway immediately west of Keewatin in Kenora had been awarded. "I know nothing about that contract." said Premier Hepburn. L can say that, however, there will be no more major road work commenced in the north now. That will be cur policy." Tenders closed for the construction of the Keewatin link in the Transâ€" Canada Highway at the pepartment of Northern Development last Tuesday. As a result of the government‘s deciâ€" sion to embark on no more undertakâ€" ings in Northern Ontario, this project, which was expected to be costly due to the rocky section of the country, will be abandoned. "I am aware that the expenditures in Northern Onutario were causing conâ€" cern to the treasury,‘ Mr. Heenan said. "They have been very nigh through no fault of the Government. . When our program to take the relief burden off the municipalities was drafted, it was expected that we would receive the same assistance from the Dominion Government that the Henry Adminisâ€" tration received." "Instead they turned us down. I am still hoping that we will be assisted and that no cunrtailment will be necesâ€" sary. While the cost of our program in the North has caused worry to the Government, I am still hoping that Otâ€" tawa will assist us." Mr. Heenan wWAs bitter in his criticism of the Dominion authorities whom he blames for the present plight in which the Governâ€" ment finds itself. At one point in an interview with The North Bay Nugget he is quoted as referring to the Doâ€" minion Government as "shysters" who deceived the people of Ontario.
