According to the evidence, Weir had had in his passession on the night of May â€"2list, a fraudulent warrant. Rauthmell had had in his pocket a fraudzlent telegram. During the trial there was not a great deal of direct evidence to show that Rauthmell, who was in the house at 155 Spruce street south ostensibly to buy gold, had any connection with Weir and Crawford who are said to have entered the place and attempted a holdâ€"up. But in closâ€" ing the case Magistrate Atkinson said he thought it only fair the defence should know that the prosecution would present expert evidence to show that both the fraudulent warrant held by Weir and the fraudulent telegram held by Rauthmell had been made out on the same typewriter. which tic some we Games will all be operated by Kiâ€" wanians, it is stated, so that entire proceeds go to the club. about mid holder wil Published at Timmins, Ont., Canads, Eveey MONDAY and THURSDAY s have been on sale now for A car, an clectric refriâ€" many other prizes are ofâ€" stubs will be mixed in the midnight andâ€"some lucky r will drive the car home Postpone Draw for Prizes from July Ist to July 4th The draw for prizes offered by the St. Anthony‘s Boy Scouts was postâ€" poned from last night until Saturday, it was announced at the Riverside pavilion last night where a large numâ€" ber of the young people of the district gathered as part of the July lst celeâ€" bration. $3,.000 worth.

The people of modern Canada should be more fairâ€"minded toward their men in public life, Rev. Dr. J. R. Fraser of Ssuth Porcupine said in effect at the Kiwanis meeting here on Monday. He spoke chiefly of Joseph Howe as one of the brilliant examples of Canadians who have given their entire lives to the cause of making Canada a better Reviews Life of Joseph Howe as an Example to Canadians. Kiwanis Club Pleased with Interesting and Inspiring Address Particularly Appropriate to Dominion Day Week. Toâ€"day, he believes, Canadians are too prone to look on those in public office as being there solely for their own good. A more charitable attitude would allow them to carry on their work more efficiently. Howe, one of the fathers of Confedâ€" eration, was the early champion of reâ€" sponsible governm*nt in the Maritime provinces. As editor of the Nova Scotâ€" ian, he carried on a battle against the rule of the British aristocracy and was successful in forcing several governors to leave the province. He eventually won in 18M48, when the measures he deâ€" manded were granted in full. Not conâ€" Would aA work mo Howe, eration, sponsible south Porcupine always does itself proud on a sports day, but the Temisâ€" kaming Firemen‘s Association annual tournament and the sports day held at Ssouth End yvesterday was an "extra special." ‘There was a notable proâ€" gramme of sports, athletics, and novelâ€" ties in addition to the firemen‘s events and everything was carried through with the most thorough efficiency. There was a specially large crowd enâ€" joying the event. EBleven brigades were represented. Gray‘s Shows added to the attractions on the grounds. Porcupine Goldfields Band and the new Pipe Band delighted the crowds with the excellent music provied. William Joseph Carter, the wandering musician, with his pipe, his violin and his flexiphone, not only played himself, but he was able to induce local talent to give of their best on his instruments. The crowds during the day were equalled at the dancing in the evening. There were two dance events in the evening, and both crowded. There was the regular dance at the High School, and square dancing at the Finn Hall. The South Porcupine firemen express special appreciation of the efforts and help of the business men and others who made the day such a success, and also of the kindness and community spirit of those who offered to billet lateâ€"comers for whom it was feared at first accommodation could not otherâ€" wise be provided.
