HE SOLITUDES OF THE SCOTTISH COAST George Yocum, Pennsylvania coal miner, has been trdusled with a whistle and rosring noises in his head since his skull was fractured in a mmine accident time ago. In Philadelphia, his head was wired for sound., and George‘s whistle and the roaring noise came out of the loudsspeaker Here he is seen broadâ€" casting before doctors and medical students. * Mrs. Beaudoin was not called upon to defend herself, the charges not being sufficiently substantiated to call for a defence. Kechnie performed the post. mortem examination on Miss Lepine‘s body and Dr. Irvine was her attending physician. Neither were able to say that an abor- tion had been procured. It was difficult for selfâ€"centred peoâ€" ple to feel a spirit of thanksgiving. Mr. Mustard allied unselfishness with Mustard, that the daay would develop into one during which we would think what a fine people we were, how well our country was doing and how we were progressing. If that spirit of selâ€" fishnéss â€"was allowed to prevail the meaning of the day would be lost. The thanksgiving spirit, said Mr. Mustard, should be a spirit of humility and thankfulness running through out lines rather than aâ€"day on which the Almighty was congratlulated for havmg such a fine people as we. § There was a danger said Rev.

Tucker, who happened to be in Timmins, was called | immediately police were notified, and he went to the scene and viewed the 'body. Preliminary investigation of the zincident was made by Constable Jack Downey of the Timmins police force. lAs the result of Constable Downey‘s [ investigations police went to the home of Bucovitch and brought him to the police office for questioning. The incident is particularly regrettâ€" able in view of the fact that police have so often recently warned of the danâ€" ger of shooting with .22 rifles. Provinâ€" clal, Tisdale, Game and Fisheries and Timmins police recently cooperated in a drive to clean up the situation. Chief Coroner Tucker ordered that a post mortem examination be made. He said that an inquest would be held. The post mortem examination was made by Dr. MacKechnie, who had a great deal of difficulty in locating the bullet. It finally was found lodged in the spine. It had passed through the heart severâ€" ing one of the upper ventricles. An empty shell from the gun was found 114 feet away from where Kader was lying. It was thought at first that he had been shot through the head, but the mark there was made when the boy fell on the rocks. He bled freely from the nose and mouth. Kader and a friend, George Hway, went out on Saturday morning to cut a pole. A bullet went over their heads when they were on the rock formation at the north end of the town and they both ducked behind a rock. They got up and another report was heard. Kader dropped and his friend, Hway, told police he took one look at him and immediately ran for help. When he got back from the nearest house Kader was dying.

As a result of the shootâ€" ing Frank Bucovitch was apprehended by police. He is in the care of his parâ€" ents pending the inquest. Bucovitch and his companion, Dan Piniuc, 12, told police that Kader and his companion were shooting at them with a sling shot. Bucovitch fired his gun in retaliation only to scare them away. What charges, if any, will be laid is not yet known. Police are awaiting the results of the inquest which will ‘be held sonietime this week, possibly toâ€" morrow. ' ed with reckless driving. At the concluâ€" sionâ€"of the case His Worship could not make up his mind so he dismissed the charge. Leo Perron said that he was driving east on Second avenue between Pine and Cedar streets. About halfway down the ~block an automobile driven by Byeznik suddenly pulled away from the curb and he was forced to run into it. Byeznik said that he looked both ways before moving his car out of the space. He saw Perron‘s car but it was a block away. He must have been comâ€" ing fast to reach where the impact took place in such a short time. Perron‘s car hit his, said Byeznik, and forced it over to the side of the road where it hit another parked automobile. Other Traffic Charges Chaysologue Portelance was charged with failing to remain at the scene of of an accident. Magistrate Atkinson dismissed the allegation when no eviâ€" dence was produced to discredit Porteâ€" lance‘s statement that he intended to return. Provincial Constables Hancock and Strickland said that they saw Porteâ€" lance, driving a truck, back into a parked car, crushing the fenders. They followed him, stopped him, brought him to the police station and laid a charge. Heward Robar paid a fine of $25 and costs and had his drivicrg permit susâ€" pended for thirty days when he pleaded guilty to a charge of reckless driving. * Charges of assaulting Charles Pexton, azainst Thomas Yantha, Chester O‘Smokler, Ted Rewislain, Jack Goldâ€" stein and Art Uriew were withdrawn.
