Ar- rested at Contour, 12 miles from the scene of the crime, Hrechkozie was brought to Winnipeg and made his statement in response to ques- tioning at provincial police head- quarters, Object of an intensive manhunt through the southeastern section of the frovince, Hrechkozie's capture and confession are believed by police to have solved the most bru- tal wholesale murder in Manitoba's history, 'The man is held for the present on only one charge, that of murdering Martin Sitar. Sitar was a farmer at Elma and Hrechkozie, his 28-year-old nephew worked for him as a farm hand. In the early morning of Friday, Jan, 29, neighboring farmers noticed Sitar's house on fire and on arrival found the door barred from the out- side. Forcing an entrance they found all members of the family or seven either dead or dying from wounds inflicted with an axe or a large knife.

What you need iz RU- MA, and need {it right now. All druggists sell it with guarantee. RU-MA acts on the blood, stomach, kidmeys and liver, and drives the dangerous rheumatic poisons from the system through the natural channels of elimina-. tion--it eases pain the first day. You must use an internal medi- cine to free the joints and mus. cles of crippling stiffness, sore ness and torturing pain. That's why RU-MA succeeds while ex- ternal remedies and pain deaden- ing drugs give only temporary re- lief.

He told police he had taken sey- eral loaves of bread with him from the Sitar home and had taken shel- ter in the woods, starving off the pangs of hunger as long as he could by cating the bread. LIPTON BEQUEST IS OF INTEREST Left Yachting Cap to Friend | Aemilius Jarvis -- Particularly interesting {is the bequest in the late Sir Thomas Lipton's will under which Com- modore Aemilius Jarvis, Canada's outstanding sailor fn {nterna- tional yachting, becomes. the owner of the yachting cap of the Scotch-Irish magnate. Sir Thomas anq Commodore Jarvis were old friends. Mr. Jar- vis was one of his principal ad- visers in the fourth challenge for the America's Cup, and was.navs igating officer of the 23-metre Shamrock, When Sir Thomas is- sued his challenge with Sham- 'rock V., he wished Mr, Jarvis to take complete charge as ama- teur skipper. As it meant a year of application to these duties ex- clusively, Mr, Jarvis was unable to comply, and Sir Thomas was forced to use the services of a professional, Capt. Heard. Rela- tions between the two eminent yachtsmen continued to be of the pleasantest, ang Commodore and Mrs. Jarvis were Sir Thomas' guests at Newport during the last contest. "I wish," sald Mr, Jarvis, picking up Sir Thomas' yachting cap, which was particularly light and well made, "you would let me know where T can get one of these. They are better than the ones we get here." "Dinna be extravagant." ans- wered Sir Thomas, relapsing into broad Glasgow. "Ye'll be getting one free the noo." s Mr, Jarvis thought no more of the matter until a carefully pack- ed case arrived at Hazelburn re- cently. It contained Sir Thomas' own 'yachting cap. Mindful of everything, the aged baronet had even provided for this in his will for his tried and trusted friend. The cap, as the badge shows, was Sir Thomas' best and newest, It has the coveted badge of the Royal Yacht Squadron, member- ship in which was the crowning glory of Sir Thomas' career, al- though once the éommittee had been deaf even to King Edward's nomination, and withheld ac- ceptance at that time, Mr, Jarvis' personal preference would have heen the cap Sir Thomas wore so many years, with the badge of the Red Hand of Ulster on it, the emblem of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club to which he helonged, and under whose auspices his challenges were issued. Sir Thomas anq his executors, however, chose the headpiece which did him the most honor, in order to honor his friend. WHAT GOLFERS WANT A new kind of golf club plays music if you hit the ball right. But what most goifers want is a weapon that will make some kind of noise to drown the ontburst when you hit the ball wrong.-- St. Thomag Times-Journal.

ADVOCATES SOCIALISM NOW Labor Member Advocates New Social Order Right Away Ottawa.--Soclalism, not as a panacea for economic {lls in the vague and indefinite future, but a remedy right away, will be pro- posed in the goming session of Parliament by J. S. Woodsworth, Labor member for Winnipeg North-Centre. Mr. Woodsworth stated today that he would file a resolution along that line fop discussion in the House. Broadly, he stated, his idea 1s that the needs of the ma- jority of the Canadian people should be the paramount -con- sideration and that the credit of Canada should be utilized for their benefit by starting public works and other enterprises on lines entirely different from any which ape now being followed. The plan would likely institute the extensive nationalization of public utilities and also such fin- ancial methods as would make the wealthy bear a larger share of the burden of existing condi- tions. An end to the system, alleged to have prevailed heretofore, in respect to campaign funds, will be sought by Humphrey Mitchell, new Labor M.P. for East Hamil- ton; He will propose that the Committee on Privileges and Elections go Into the broad ques- tion and evolve such changes as will prevent any repetition of what was disclosed in an en- quiry last session. There will be one less griev- ance to exploit this year. J. F. Pouliot, M.P., who on two score occasions held up business when complaining about the condition of the station at Riviere du Loup, stated that this structure has been entirely renovated with a tile floor and new roof and that his trouble in, that respect is at an end. A. A. Heaps, M.P., will pre- sent a resolution for legislation to reduce the hours of labor in industry, 'thus eliminating the enormous waste of enforced idle- ness.' BORN IN THE AIR, * HAS JUST DIED Lindy Miller, Born in Aero- plane, Is Dead in Manitoba The Pas, Man.--Little Lindy Miller, the first child to be born in an airplane, has died just north Wabowden, according to word received here last night, The child, whose unusual place of birth was in an airplane roar- ing its way through a heavy snowstorm over frozen bush coun- tries, was not quite r year old The cause of the death is not re- vealed in the brief message re- ceived by Indians here. The death of the child recalls probably the most dramatic medical operation and flight in the history of Can- ada's northland. An R.C.AF. pilot flew from Cormorant Lake to Wabowden to rush a humble Indian squaw to the hospital here as she was about to have a child, and no doctor was available there. He flew blind through a heavy snow- storm to reach the little trading post on the Hudson Bay Rail- way. Upon arrival there, Mrs. Miller's condition was so serious he had to turn around and with his mechanic and the patfent headed towards the nearest hos- pital at The Pas. With nearly a hundred miles to go and hurling through the air, Mrs. Miller gave birth to the child, the mechanic acting as doctor, s The question of where to regis- ter the birth of the child tied up the legal mechinery of the province and the question was debated in - the highest legal circles in the world, as it set a precedent, EXPLAINS WORK AT HUDSON BAY Enormous Task Still Faces Engineers at Fort Churchill Ottawa, Ont., Feb. 5. -- About 300,000 yards of dredging, com- pletion of about 1,100 feet of loading gallery along the dock and the construction of necessary transit sheds, constitutes the bulk of the work yet to be done at Churchill, Canada's Hudson's Bay port. This information was contained in an address deliver- ed today before the annual meet- ing of the Association of Domin- fon Land Surveyors by George Kydd, resident engineer at Churchill for the department of Fallways and Canals, Mr. Kydd states that a large part of the construction plant and material taken to Nelson be- fore the war was available for use at Churéhill. During the seasons of 1927, 1928 and 1929 most of this plant was moved from Nel- son to Churchill either by tractor or boat. About 600 tons were moved over the shore ice dur- ing the winter of 1927-28 by a fleét of four ten ton tractors each of which carried a load of eight tons and hauled 3 slighs each, of which each alsc carried 8 tons. Ag there were no stopping places on the road the crews hauled their own cabooses in which they ate and slept, and the tractors were kept going night and day, 6 days being required for the trip Owing to the drifting snow a new road had to be broken every trip. In the summers of 1928 and 1929 the remainder of the material, some 2,000 tons, wis moved by three lighters and halt a doezn scows. In this way steam shovels, 17-ton locomo- tives, cars, hoisting engines, der- ricks, locomotive cranes and oth- er material were transferred from the abandoned port to the new cne, In 1928 a temporary dock was built at Churchill and four ship cargoes of timber, coal and oth- er construction material arrived. One of the cargoes, 3% million feet of timber, had come from the Pacific coast via the Panama Canal. These three cargoes had to be unloaded first on to the scows and then from the scows ashore. The dredges began work in 1929 and in the three seasons have dug about one and one-natf | million yards, The material to Simple Remedy For Bad Stomach Gives Swift Relief No Need of Strong Medicines or Diet. Safe and Simple Home Recipe Keeps Stomach in Fine Condition. If you are a victim of Stomach Troubles--Gas, Sourness, Pain or Bloating--you may have quick and certain relief by following this sim- ple advice. Sie : Don't take strong medicines, arti- ficial digestants or pull down your system with starvation diets, For within reason most folks may eat what they like if they will "keep their stomach free from souring acids that hinder or paralyze the work of digestion. And the best and easiest way to do this is to follow every meal with threc or four tablets of Bisurated Magnesia--a pleasant, harmless, in- expensive, and handy tablet form of Magnesia that promptly neutral- izes acidity and keeps your stomach sweet and clean, A week's trial of Bisurated Magnesia tablets, which any good druggist can supply at trifling cost, should quickly convince you that 90 per cent. of ordinary stomach dis- tress is absolutely unnecessary. Be sure to get Bisurated Magnesia Tablets! be dredged is hard compacted clay with many large boulders. Much of the material dredged was taken to sea and dumped in deep water two miles out from shore by two_self-propelling hopper barges of of 500 yards capacity and three dump scows of 450 yards capacity, towed by two tugs, One of the main items of con- struction is the deep water dock which is 1,855 feet in length and will accommodate four vessels. The dock consists of a back line of cribs built from low tide leve! up to a front line of cribs built from about 32 feet below low tide. The grain elevator was built fi 1930 and 1931. It has a stor- age capacity of 2,500,000 bushels, 4 car dumpers for receiving grain into the elevator and 4 belts for delivering grain from the eleva- tor to the ships. It has a ca- pacity for handling half a million bushels of wheat per day either in or out. There is to be a length of 1,- 400 feet of loading gallery along the dock face o that 3 ships can be loaded at once but of this gal- lery only about 350 feet is as yet built, During the progress of this work the Department of Railways and Canals had a force of about 659 men, and the railway a force of several hundred men at Churchill. To house all these men a complete camp was erected at Churchill, together with a hos- pitul, complete machine shop and offices. - WILL NOT STAY ON GOLD STANDARD South Africa Not Determin- ed to Remain on Gold Basis Cape Town, South Africa. -- It was nonsense to say that the Gov- crnment was determined to ad- here to the gold standard regard- less of the recommendations of ich is be- mn.
