"A fortnight ago," the director said in an interview, "she telephoned me from somewhere, saying she would be at the club exactly cn time, but that for personal reasons she wished to appear masked. I accepâ€" ted her condition, thinking it would prove an additicnal attraction. I intended to question her before her performance. She did not arrive unâ€" til after nine, already dressed and masked, it appears, and immediately locked herself into her dressing rocm." "Is all that true?" asked Raoul. "Yes," she answeoded. "How long have you been a dancer?" "I always danced for my own pleaâ€" sure, even as a child. After mothers death I tsok lessons and traveled about." As for the dancer herself, no one ha seen her unmasked. The directeor of the casino had engaged her on the reâ€" commendation of an agency in Berlin, where she had qanced without a mask the preceding winter with marked success. Raoul glanced hastily through the rest of the report. The capture of The Ara> the lesser members of the band was heralded as a police triumph with a‘ flourish of trumpets. ‘The attempt on the life of the masked dancer was also described, as was her abductisn by one of the spectators who was supposed to be a rival of Big Paul. No information as to his identity was veuchsafed. But a cursory glance at the headâ€" lines caused Raoul‘s face to darken, all his joy vanished. He muttered crossly : "Oh, â€"»the fozsls, the fools! Really Gorgeret is paralytic!" And he read cut: . "Big Paul, having earlier in the day escaped the police during a raid at the Ecrevisses Bar, was arrested at the cpening of the Blue Casino, but again escaped from Inspector Gorgeret and his men."

Provincial Constable McClelland went to North Cobalt to investigate, to be told by McFherson he would not attend, as he had two witnesses to prove he had been at Haileybury at two o‘clock that morning, as specified in the summons.

THF PORCUPINT ADVANCT, TTMMITXS, ONTARIO Many interesting adventures lie beâ€" hind the ‘zald statement of fact which constitutes the reports Of the railway police. An unusual incident came to light in the report made by a Canadian NatiQnal Railways‘ cconstable at North Bay, following a complaint that an unknown man had been chopping down the various crossing snowâ€"plow signs !in a remote section cf the North Country. The signs, which were in the }form of a cross, were erected at the crossings as a warning to the crew to raise the flange of the plow before passing over the public track proterâ€" itions. Beotween the lines of the report could be read the story of a lonely man who lived in a log cabin, by the: railway rightâ€"ofâ€"way, who had suddenâ€" ly become deranged. His mania took the form of destroying all signs which were patterned after a cross. When the constable approached him he be-! came widly excited and threatened thP' ioflicer with an axe. The settler de-‘ clared that he would destroy all signs }bearing such a cross and * stated that "Since the above was placed in type, the announcement is made that the Commission comtemplateos inkreasing the facilities of Toronto broadcasting to to take care of Northern Ontario. This may or may not give the desired recepâ€" tion, without interference from smaller broadcasters. The Commission should satisfy themselves on this point before spending any great sum on increased power in the Tdronto area." Queer Page is Written in Railway Police Report "The suggestion that the Commission opsrate a bunch a little stations at different parts of the North i# the verâ€" iest kind of bunk. "It is not necessary for us to discuss whether the station should be placed at an already established centre like Monâ€" teith, "where pupils might be expected to supply a programmeg," As a matter of fact, this was no doubt stated as a joke, because we have already had far too many programmes suth as might be expected from a bunch of youngsters. Those desiring of seeing the establishâ€" ing of a Northern broadcasting plant must forget all about location. That is the one point which opposition to such an enterprise would be expected to make use of to cause dissension. We want a broadcasting unit which will give us the broadcasts of the world, just as they are getting it in Old Ontario, and for. which we are expected to pay. No more, and certainly no less. that point we should all be sound, and then it is up to the Government through its Radio Commission, to put the proposed broadcasting plant at the most strategic point, distance and electric energy with economy being considered. "A recent announcement again states that the Dominion Radio Commission has plans underway for an improved eccastâ€"toâ€"coast broadcasting system. If this is a fact, now is the time to make such representation to Ottawa as will lead to the final installation, some place in the North, of a truly northern broadâ€" casting plant, which will supply the needs of Northern Ontario. It does not need to be a million watt plant, nor one half that capacity, the Commission is in a position to know what should be required to reach the parious parts of the North, after considering the most convenient and economical point at which such a station should be placed. | The New Liskeard Speaker last week in speaking of the radio situation in the North says: Bunch of Little Stations Not Wanted in the North Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway C.P.R.

So well designed and well constructe2d were all the various plants that they have been operated during the past four years with a minimum of expense and trouble. Flin Flon was planned on the basis of adequate technical knowledge and with infinite pains, and it is proâ€" bably the best of its kind in the world. The ore supply is conservatively estiâ€" mated at 18,000,000 tons, of which someâ€" thing over a million tons a year is used up. Flin Flon is therfore destined to enjoy a long and useful existence. _ _The nature of this construction is not easy to grasp until one actually views the huge plants at Flin Flon, to say noâ€" thing of the town itself. Some figures may illustrate the magnitude of this forestâ€"girt operation. The payroll at Flin Plon reached a maximum of 1,846 men, most of whom were drawn from the settled districts of Manitoba and the near parts of Sackatchewan. The 83,000 tons of material required for the conâ€" struction included 14 million feet of lumber, 11,800 tons of structural steel, 165,000 bags of cement, 10,000 tons: of machinery and 8,000 tons of brick.. A complete water system for the supply of 400 gallons per minute of pure witer serves the plant and town, and the s°wâ€" age system includes an activated sludge treatment plant, both of which would do credit to any upâ€"toâ€"date city. All buildings are carefully insulated and the plants are heated from wasteâ€"heat boilersâ€"very necessary items in a reâ€" gion where temperatures of 50 below are not unknown. ' In his paper entitled "Plant Conâ€" struction at Flin Flon," W. A. Green, general superintendent, tells how this money was expended. During 1928 the 90â€"mile railway line was constructed, the power plant started and complete plans for the various plants drawn. Thus when the railway reached, the mine in the fall of 1928 it was possible to start ‘an intensive period of conâ€" struction at both Flin Flon and Island Falls. This continued through the whole of 1929, and by July 1930, the first ore passed through the crushing plént. The concentrator, zinc refinery and copper smelter followed in rapid sucâ€" cession, and before the end of the year the whole series of plants was operating fairly smoothly. While the Flin Flon mine has added simething like $7,000,000 to the wealth of the Dominion each year since it wem,‘ into operation toward the end of 1930, the people of Canada in general and of Manitoba in particular got far more than this out of the construction period in the two years previous. those two years the Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting Company spent about 000,000 in developing and equipping the | mine and building the 39,000 horseâ€" power hydroâ€"electric plant at Island Falls. Almost the whole of this vast amount was spent in Canada for wages, supplies and equipment. | Value to Country of * Mining Development Interesting and helpful information is given by the Canadian Institute of Minâ€" ing and Meallurgy to show the wideâ€" spread affect of mining development, not only in the immediate area where the development may be, but in the wider sphere of national progress and industry. Here are some of the points made by the C.LM.M.:â€"â€" Case of FlinFlon Used as an Example of How Wideâ€" spread is the Benefit of Mining.

It has had the temerity to vote against the Hepourn government candidate in the Nipissing byâ€"election, while all the rest of the riding was rolling up big majorities for the Liberal standardâ€" bearer. Well, if the government tears down that Deschenes creek bridge after [n is built, North Bay has only itself to blame. "The rapid development of the minâ€" ing industry, causing dozens of small mining camps to spring into existence over a vast area, is a challenge to our church which must be met," says the Canadian Churchman. "Isolated comâ€" munities, some of which wili certainly vanish in a year or two and others grow into cities as large as Timmins (who knows?) must not be neglected." No special appeal for funds will be made in Timmins or in the diocese, The Advance was told. The money will come from the ordinary revenues of the M.S.C.C. to which contributions are made from all Anglican churches in Canada. The area in which the work will be begun is in the new mining area east and south of Cochrane, which lies in the Diocese of Moosonee. The Beattie mine and many other smaller projects lie in the di§trict. Already the Missionary Society of the Church of England in Canada has proâ€" mised an annual grant of $1,000 for the support of such travelling mission and when Dean Williston has completed his survey arrangements will be made as soon as possible to get the work unâ€" der way, The Advance was told by Rev. Canon R. S. Cushing of St. Matthew‘s church here. Investigation of conditions in the new mining camps of the Moosonee district is at present being made by Rev. W. B. Williston, rural dean at Cochrane. The Church of England feels that at the present time, the outlying mining camps should have some sort of touch with the church and they propose to give this service by the appointment of a travelling priest.

P At of an action for damages which was tried in a Nipissing court recently. The plaintiff, named Peccin, WAs awardeq damages by a jury as a result of negligence on the part of the railâ€" way, but the judge was unable to enter judgment because the CT~â€" N. O., as a branch of the government could not be sued in an action for damages. The attorneyâ€"general said that the dominion gevernment had provided for such actions being Jaunched and the legislation which he would introduce would be on the same principle. Legislation permitting individuals to sue the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway without a fiat from the government will be introduced at the current session of the legislature, Attorneyâ€"General A.
