MONDaAY TTEEFRUAPMY i3TH, 1559 DECIDED TO CLOSE DOWN "The first we knew of Japie having seen the signals, which he had describâ€" ed to you, was on the night on which he died, when the owl‘s hoot warned Channing of something amiss. He turned quickly, and there, silhouetted against the sky, also no doubt gaping in wonder at the scene before him, sat the foolish foolish Japie on that admirâ€" able horse of which he was so jJusily proud. "I have said before that you never gave Channing his due. He was, I repeat, a man of quick action and, in addition, he knew every inch of the surrounding country. There was only on thing to be done. Hacking off a piece of the rope used for guiding the boat, he threw it to Tom and ordered him and another boy to race to that bottleâ€"neck for a horseman, on the path to Van Stelien‘s house. Tom was no mean lieutenant; he understood what was required of him. They strung the rope between two fencing posts, the idea being to trip up the noble Triplaar as he raced home with his owner‘s asâ€" tounding news. "The> plan worked better than could have been hoped. Triplaar feel and Japle, in breaking his neck saved us the trouble of spiriting him away, as hmad been necessary with But then, of course, Japie had spoken and that, alas, is what we did not know. "The first we knew of it was when that fool Sam chose to disregard the tradition of the whole of his tribe by going to the river at nightâ€"that hour sacred to the river deity, the great Kwena, â€" Yes, my dear Green, I was honestly drunk, and for that reason and that alone, you found me on the river bank.. Sam blundered into Manko‘s minions, and it was they who broke his neck for him after our little argosy had driven terror into his poor superâ€" stitious mind. "So far we had had three most unâ€" fortunate but unavoidable deaths, and even the insatiable Loftus had to adâ€" mit that the thing was going too far. It was then that it was decided to close down; butâ€"as the supliers had certain leeway to make up, in respectâ€"to various parcels of valuable stones, and many cattle, it was agreed to run a final series of consignments during the next favourable phase of the moon. Imâ€" mediately afterwards we were to be favoured by a second visit from Loftus‘ aownâ€"andâ€"outs, to dismantle and reâ€" move ctur incriminating plant. "In the meantime, however, the disâ€" turbance that had been created in the demanded a diversion of some kind, whith, primarily, wculd remove any suspicion that might have fallen on the Campsie entourage as a result of the interest that you and Corneille were taking in us. Thus came to be planned that most regrettable incident â€" the abduction of innccent Miss Cynthia. "That beastily idea was Loftus‘s, and as it was chiefly designed to provide an alibi for himself and Channing, I was forced to carry it out. But I swear tha the only part that I played was to inâ€" ject morphiaâ€"how carefully, I have alâ€" ready told yruâ€"and to assist to carry her through the tunnel to the spruit whoere you found her. Tom caught her and bound her, and for that I admit I am to blame. Had I been less squeamâ€" ish and had undertaken that task, tos, Miss Cynthia might conceivably have suffered less." "Great Scott!" Corneille inlerrupted. "Then Tom was Maraka‘s sinister Leftâ€"Hand?" "Yes, and missing that clue was ons of my worst lapses.

Towr and his ring had gone completely out of my head." "And I‘ve spent hours watching Tom at work and never tumbled to the fact that he is leftâ€"handed. ' "But this is where you and I come into the limelight," said Malcolm. "Listen to this." He read on. in addition to sorving the purposes already mentioned, Miss Cynthia‘s abâ€" ‘duction was planned with the intention of giving Loftus the opportunity of inâ€" sistinz ‘on her taking a holiday at the coast. so as to get her out of the way for a time. You will agree that it was an altruistically planned scheme when I add that it had, as a corrollary, your own and Corncsille‘s abduction. Not that you were to come to any harm. yeu were merely to suffer a temporary disappsarance in case, as was already strongly suspected, you might try to interfere with the dispatch of that last and vital series of consignments. "YÂ¥ou must know thatâ€"we all fully realized the relationship between Miss Cynthia and Corneille, and that the sudden disappearance of the latter weoluld complicate matters needlessly if the former were Lo know of it." "so that‘s how it was done," said Corneille as Malcolm folded up the letter. "Can you wonder that I have no feeling about? No, I had rather a thcusand times that you and Maraka had found out about it than that I, and esiâ€")eé:â€"ially Cynthia, should have gone on being the dupes of such callous swines." MARAKA‘S REWARD "Yes, a coldâ€"blooded, callous crowd. But Maraka was always right when he emphasized their efficency. They" were devilish efficient. You should see how their smiuggling layâ€"out, was put down. Maraka took me over it just after you had left, and one couldn‘t help admirâ€" ing i. Everything seemed to lend itself so well to the scheme, that you‘d say it had been specially built for it. â€" Phe cask into which Tom dumped supplies from the whey cart was built into the side of Channing‘s reservoir, quite near the surface. At the bottom it had a nalfâ€"inch pipe connection, and the line ran straight as a die to the Campsic cave. The inlet on the cask was a heavy copper tube fitted with a stop cock, and housed in a little concrete box just beside one of the iron stanâ€" dards making up Channing‘s famous baredâ€"wire entanglements round his water supply. When the horses were being watored at the trough the whey EmE cart stood handily just over the whole bag of tricks, and all Tom had to do was to join up the tank with his rubber tube, open two little cocks, and in a few minutes his job was done. I doubt that anyone standing by could have told that he was up to any game." "But why go in for such a compliâ€" cated system?" "To have an alibi in drink, as yOou might say. Booze in bulk arriving aAt Campsie might have aroused suspicion, and supplies were evidently arriving in tulk with a vengeance. I measured the secret tank in the whey cart and preâ€" cious little whey Channing must have been gettingâ€"twenty gallons of ‘dop‘ a time, my lad. That would have takâ€" 3 \~ AFL Cyu'/ Ccmcrl. i Ontario Railway ailway Company valid for travel on CN.R _ 19th and Monday "The Northland." on some explaining if it had reached Campsic in any other way, what?" "For three solid years," said Ccrnfllllel musingly. 1 "By gad, it was a well thought out scheme, Corneille. At its lowest pomt! setween the cave and the river, the. vassage bulged out into quite a fairâ€" ized place, where the end of the pipe was connected to another cask. The bags were filled up at a tap and vere hung on a simple carrier, running m rollers along a rail flxed to the ‘cof of the passage. "No need for a crew to cart the stuff along the remainder of the pasâ€" mage. The whole thing ran so well that me man could push a whole consignâ€" ment over the remaining distance to Che river. There was room on the carâ€" rler for the boat and that arquebus 2rontraption as well, besides a firstâ€"class boat. That part of the business took ‘nlace at the river entrance of the tunâ€" nel; it‘s marvellously hidden by a bush ind a maze of narrow passages, rather like those in the Van Stellen cave. I bet you, Corneille, that, even now, you would not be able to find the other entrance in the Campsie cave. It‘s not surprising that no one found it before Channing. "I doubt that we‘d have got it, if we hbadn‘t been able to get in from the river end after its entrance had been given away on the night that we snafflâ€" >d the gang. The entrance is hung in the middle of the inner caveâ€"not at your feet or on the side, as you‘d naâ€" turally expect, but in the roof! a small ledge and a narrow opening. YÂ¥ou don‘t need a ladder to get to 16 any one can climb up to it easily and all you‘ve got to do, then, is to crawl for about five yards and you‘re in the tunâ€" nel proper." 3# "Jjove! That explains a devil of a lot;: and it gives me some excuse for refusing to share in your suspicions. I simply couldn‘t understand how there could be foul play on A place that I thought I knew so well. Didn‘t even Msraka suspect who killed Mortimer?" "Wall apparently he did know â€"at ‘east he admits he had s picionsâ€"ever sinc : the day of his selfâ€"planned picnic, wh>n he found out that the two peoâ€" ple whom he‘d followed, from the cave, had given him ‘he slip by getting out of the khotlo by climbing up those poplatrs opposite the small cave.

"Maraka him thank the Baas plenty much," he said thoughtfully. "Oho, Baas. Maraka him not like one big ‘basela‘; him finish too plenty quick.”‘ His face lit up with NS Suuueli genuous smile.

Tho gdelegation from Matheson incl uded: McDonald, reeve, and Councillors Gum and Monaghan. Mayor MciIinnis and Councillors Rrazsau, Fogg, Longmore and L. S. Newton met the delegation at a special meeting of the town counâ€" cil which was also attended by Roseve 8. B. Morgan and Councillors Waliton and Hrtchsion, of Tisdale. The Maitheâ€" cil which was ailso altlend2d Dy mcevs 8. B. Morgan and Councillors Waliton and Hutchsion, of Tisdale. The Maiatheâ€" son delegates explained the advantages of th> proposed highway from Matheâ€" son to Timmins. The country passed through was chiefly agricultural lands. In this connection Councilior Walton said that he had been over the ground snd fully 75 por cent. of the land that would be opsned up by sluch a road was the richest of agricultural land. _ T was pointed out that the road would asstuirse an accessible market for the settlers while the towns in the district would also benefit greatly from the iproduce and supplies from tlre farms thus made available. The general ;opinion of the mesting was that the proposed highway would be a descided benefit to the whol> district in many | ways, while on the other hand it would raise no serious objection from any quarter. Already, there were parts of [ the roadway constructed and â€" these | would be linked up to make a goaod | through highway. The Matheson deleâ€" gation suggested that all the municiâ€" palities concerned should join in a | resolution to the Ontario Governmen| for the completion of the Mathesonâ€"| Timmins highway, and that the resoluâ€" | tion be backed up by a delegzation to | Toronto. In cincluding its reference’i to the matter The Advance said:â€""The | plan for better roadways in the North | Land includes, as well as the Mathe-‘ sonâ€"Timmins section referred to, a road : through to Cochrane and a branch to | Iroquois Falls. ‘The country can not| opened up without roads, and the | plans for the roads mentioned embrace | not only the idea of giving convenient highways for the people of the disâ€" | tricts served, but also providing newi i settlement by opening up districts that | will have access to markets for all that | may be produced on the new farms. Such roads would be a benefit to old settlers and new ones and a general advantage to the country as a whole." Reference was made twenty years ago to the steady influx of men from | Sudbury and other points south to the Porcupine camp. "Quite a few foreignâ€" ers are coming into this camp," said The Advance, "but there is also a large proportion of Canadian and Old Counâ€" try British. Every train seems to bring. more men,. but. there 4sâ€"still furâ€" ther room for more. The lumber camps have taken the larger pars of those coming here so far. It is estimated that about 1000 men are now at work along the river, and there is call for further men.

Stewart Points Out that Wages and Conâ€" ditions for the Workers is the Chief Consideration Fditor The Advance, Timmins, Ontario. Degar Sir:â€"The letter in The Advance on Thursday last (9th), from the pen cf Mr. Brooks, while on a visit to New Zealand, expresses bricfly some of his opinions mbout that British sister Dominion. Mr. Brooks writes of New Zealand as being that of a "grand country." He continues by giving an cutline relative, more or less, to conâ€" iditions and legislation in New Zealand. In this Mr. Brooks makes mention of reduced working hours and increased wages, for the workers. He also speaks about the cest of living, the railways and some matters kindred to ‘Dominion life. Now, in keeping with all my manâ€" ners of respect for the faith and value that Mr. Brooks places in his opinions, I eannot avoid striking discordant notés controversial to some of his beliefs. Mr. Brooks says "Times are good" there and that the labour government has cut the workers working hours to 40 hours per week. No work on Saturâ€" days. He also states that wages are "up quite a bit" and goes on to say that married farm hands get a straight £5 (around $23.00) per week. Mr. Brooks also tells us that workers get ten days holidays, with pay, each year, In a contrasting companion to these wages scales Mr. Brooks gives a list of the prices of some food articles, in w Zealand, and compares the prices with the prices of similar food articles which he, at times, had previously purâ€" chased in Toronto. In this respect he cites the cost of a number of food articles, but, for brevity of space I shall recite only one. Mr. Brooks says that New Zealand strawhberries sell at two shillings a box. In Toronto, he says, he had three boxes of strawberries for twentyâ€"five cents (around one shilling). Following his contrasting of other prices Mr. Brooks becomes critical of something inâ€"or aboutâ€"New Zealand and says, "They can keep New Zealand lf01 my part." Now, whatever be the demology with which Mr. Brooks works out his analysis in constructing his criticism toward New Zealandâ€"Oor the cost of living price spread, between that of New Zealand and that of Canadaâ€"he has failed to recognize that the figures with his dice heavily loaded against New Zeaâ€" land. Alas! for he makes no mention‘ cfâ€"nor contrasts with that of New Zealandâ€"any scale of wages or cash payments given Canadian growers, or farmers, construction and road workers, ]for their work or produce, here in Canâ€" ada. Because of the absence of such figures, relating to Canada, no true line of reasoning, or equating, can be estabâ€" lished which would show that straw»> berriesâ€"or straw hatsâ€"sold in Toronto at three for twentyâ€"five cents would be ‘cheaper than one sold in New Zealand for fifty cents. Hence Mr. Brooks has his dice, as I say, loaded against New Zealand. It may be thatâ€"like most of usâ€"Mr. Brooks has little knowledge as to what scales of amounts Canadian farmers, construction and road workers [receive. Whether the amounts be in the form of wazes, profit, subsidy or relief matters not. Who doss know? | What school of thought can inform us? How much cash can there be left for the grower, or farmer, in Canada after the wholesaleman and the retailer get their share from the sale of three boxes of strawberries at twentyâ€"five cents? Ssome answers may be found, to these questions, in the relief bundles sent to the people in the prairie provinces by crgeanizations associated with our churches. ‘Some answers may be found in the books of mortgags companies, or, in the pages of bank loan books, The secrets of many mortgage sales and bailiff actionsâ€"not forgetting the poverty of many farmer familiesâ€"in Canada might then be told. I comâ€" mend, for the study of anyone interâ€" ested, a readinz of the balance sheet or published report of some morlgage company, or, that of some bank. And just for satisfaction, try studying what lies beneath the reading of "Agriâ€" culture" in the January issue of the Bank of Nova Scotia‘s Monthly Review. As Easily Applied In Winter As In Summer.

LIMITED Mr. Brooks tells us that the labour sovernmont of New Zealand is "sure spending all kinds of money‘" when he speaks of New Zealand‘s level crossâ€" ings. But.â€"he also teolls us that they have "cut out about twentyâ€"five per sent. of all level crossings," in that same spending. Now, all things conâ€" sidered. contrast such gainful spending with that of the Canadian National Railways deficit, of over $983,324,183.00 at the beginning of 1935 the year when New Zealand elected its presens labour government. This spending (of which Mr. Brooks speaks) by New Zealand, for its projected public works proâ€" gramme, is linked (according to pubâ€" lished reports of decrees pasesed by the government) to a process, through which New Zealand apparently seeks equilibrium, in the entire economic life of the people. These decrees include suarantees of a job for all employable persons; insurance for hospitalization W dn c e $A +o all; old age pension of $7.50 per week. and an income allowance of $5.00 per week. Judging from the published records of the work of New Zealand‘s labour government, since its election to ofâ€" fice a little over three years ago, I am disposed to believe it has extendsed, by far, greater social security, tw the peoâ€" ple of New Zealand, with corresponding results, relatively spsaking, than the sets of ten governments ofâ€" Canada have extended â€" to Canadians, . during my twenty years residence, in this richly endowed . British Dominion. {Wha.t a Godâ€"send it would be to the people of Canada if cur governments would, even at this late date, attempt to extend to the nation policses similar to that extended by the labour governâ€" ment of New Zealand to its people. Mr. Editor, in closing, I wish to thank you for the use of your valuable space in The Advance. Yours very sincerely, William Stewart. New ‘Downâ€"Town‘ Hospital Suggested for Liskeard Pointing out that the present hospital at New Liskeard is not large enough for probable future needs, the building not fully modern nor in the best repair, The Temiskaming Speaker suggests that it migzsht be well for New Liskeard to consider the idea of a new "downâ€" town" hospital, more easily of access and less expensive for upkeep. Two citizons of New Liskeard are quoted as ready to contribute $3500 each per year for the next five years (at total of $5,000) for a start on such a project. The Speaker evidently believes that there are othere who would be willing :o contripute in similar fashionâ€"perâ€" haps, not as large amounts individualâ€" 1y, but enough to net a considerable sum in the aggregate, The Speaker takes opportunity to give full credit to the present hospital for notable service given, but thinks the now plan might.give better service, if it eould be financed.
