When the depression came things got really despera‘e, with no work of any kind to be had. Finally it was decided by the res‘dents that an effort wcould be made to serure government relief. One of the number was selected, his train fare to the seat of government was painfully scraped up and he set out. The deleâ€" ga‘le had no watch so he put an old alarm clock in his folding portmanteau. Arrived at the capital he was duly given the cffisial runâ€"around but manâ€" aged, in time, to reach this objective.

Those who trekked into Rouyn in the days ‘before the railway was comâ€" pleted, when the Quebec government refused to allow the line to cross the interprovincial boundary, will recall the "jumping off place‘‘ of Cheminis. It was a roaring little town then. Hunâ€" dreds of men were engaged in unloadâ€" iny machinery and supplies and in freegnting them the forty odd miles to Noranda. It was estimated at one time that there were three hundred teams of horses engaged in the freighting. Bomb that Brought Relief to Cheminis Story Worth Preserving in Regard to Border Mining Town.

Suddenly he leaped from his chair and ran out of ‘the raom, to the utter astonâ€" ishment of the delegate. The next deâ€" velopment was the appearance of two policemen who seized the petitioner and his portmanteau, rushing them out of the rcom, out of the building and into a motor car. There seemed to be terâ€" rific excitement about the whole proâ€" cedure. The car proceeded rapidly to the city limits where the portmanteau was quickly thrown into a field. The two officers opened fire on it with their revolvers, riddling it to pieces. Ncthing ‘happened so the cfficers cauâ€" tisusly approached and opened up the remains of the grip.

The heaviest loser is said to be L. Helper, whose house and contents were a total loss. He is quoted as sayâ€" ing that he expects the ‘Forestry Branch to recompsnse him for the Icss, as he claims that it was carelessness en the part of officials of the Forestry Branch or the contractor who recently cut the fire guard round the town that was responsible for the fire. He is said to hold that it was lack of sufficient men on guard while the slash was beâ€" ing..burned that allowed the fire to get away. The fire in the slash was whipped by a gale and the fire spread to‘ the ‘houses. The fire guard was cut under government contract last month, and the slash was burned during calm nights last week. The claim put forâ€" ward now is that no harm would have come from the fire in the slash had it been properly attended. It is alleged. that an insufficieqgt staff was mainâ€" tained with the result that a gale ocâ€" curring, the fire was soon whipped beâ€" yong control of the available . men.l Three homes and most of the contents were: burned before the Forestry Branch and volunteers were able to bring the blaze under contrcl.
