Ne â€" (Released by Consondated News Features, Inc.\ Detectives found that others were alâ€" legedly worvk'lng with Leo in the racket, and Ethier Gerard, Hector Senecal and Marie Lalonde were arrested in a Van i Horne . street boarding house. Two ‘ others, Narisse Tremblay, and Marie | Lord, were picked up at "Casa Loma," One of the four men and two women held in connection with the racket, Patrick Leo, of 1218 St. Lawrence St., Montreal, faces a count of false preâ€" tences. The other five are charged with vagrancy, and all are being held in the district jail on a remand till July 25, while detectives make further investigations. Crown Attorney E. D. Wilkins asâ€" sured E. C. Facer, solicitor for the five, that he would let the defendants qut on $40 bail each, if the investigation was completed by July 22. The case came to police attention when Leo was arrested July 17 on the complaint of Albert Kella_r, of Shaughâ€" nessy street, Sudbury, that the yring which the man had sold to him wis not a real diamond, as the salesman is said to have claimed, but a worthless imitation. â€"*‘A Feaders in The Advance will naturâ€" ally be interested in the fall fairs and exhibitions held in the North Land thh, year, and accordingly the following list as complete as it is pouble to secure] is given of Northern fairs.

Not seriously,. we hasten to assure those ‘who might have visions of! workers devoured in t.he bush. So far, in this section .Of© the district the bears have aflected only three or‘ four camp coolss and an unstated | number of woodcutters.. But sinoe the wilds of Parry Sound embrace a vast terriâ€" tory of forest and marshland, with lumber camps dotting: the landscape to the remotest reaches themof the number of cooks in panic and woodsâ€" men in revolt may be:more than the few we have heard about so far. Few Berries, Bears Hungry 1t appears that the blueberries and other berries of the marshes are not yet plentiful or ripe pnough. "and the bears are hungry. And while Bruin in an extremity will eat anything from decayed fish to pheasant eggs in any stage of incubation; and on occasion has been known to pursue fawns at a fast but clumsy gallop, with his tongue hanging out from the heat of the chase; such delicacles are not alâ€" M en o2 09 En eP ways at hand, and the problem of the evening dinner becomes acute. So what is more natural than a call at eventide to the camp coolthouse from whence the breeze waft such an allurâ€" ing aroma? ° : 1llifg â€"â€" ALVILIQ i Ne * L Natural enough. And if the hungry old fellow would only drop around at, the cookhouse door like ‘a wellâ€"beâ€" naved dog and wait for a free meal, all would be well. But he doesn‘t. In one instance just reported to us, t.he1 bear reached camp at sundown and in the rays of the departing orb saw his reflection in ‘the kitchen window.. Either he did not think the portrait flattering enough, ‘or ‘suspected comâ€" petition.

Then he pinched a side of bacon and toddled off home. "Dwas at this point that the cook emerged from hiding, whether in a treeâ€"top or elsewhere, history recordeth not. He. crept . cautiously into his shattered domain. But it was only to pack a few trifles the bear had overlooked, in preparation for a long adieu to the woods.

Boys at the camp expressed their oplnions of the cookhouse crisis in backwoods English that lacks nothingâ€"in the way of incilsive eloquence.. Something had to be done about it or the axes would swing no more. Single Shot Did Trick An old Sunlridge mend of ours was the St. George who slew the cookâ€" chasing dragon.

At sixteen, by a f@brication about his age, he was on the way to France to staik Huns in the first World conflict. In 1916 he returned to his native Northland, and has spent most of his days and nights, amid the lakes and woods since then. Among endless adâ€" yentures with the creatures of the wild â€"moose, wolves, bearsâ€"â€"he confesses to but one occasion when he was frankly sault from the rear. A second bear. with no thought but flight, charged between his bare legs. For a few tense seconds, the hunter was astride him, heading for the blackness of the bush. ‘There was no human being within ten miles or mord," he said, "but I yelled for help at the top of my lungs. Then T was jolted from the bear‘s back andâ€" ~and laughed." At the end of a trail of ~gore and broken saplings he found the first bear, dead, by the light of dawn. No bear of the â€"Ontario bush, he conâ€" tends, will attack a man except under provocation. : _fFrom Ppevensey, way a few miles east ‘of here, came another report: today, of bears raiding a camp kitchen; and of ‘a vacancy for a good, plain cook.
