On Friday ofâ€"last week at Cochrane, His Honour Judge Caron heard the appeal of A. T. King from the deâ€" cision ‘of the Cochrane Court of Reâ€" vision, which held that the oecupant of a residence owned by the T. N. 0. Railway is liable for municipal taxâ€" ation. _ <Judgment was reserved in the matter and will be given at a later date. JUDGEMENT RESERVED IN CASE OF T. N.0. ROUSES Several towns along the T. N.0. are interested in the decision that will be given, as the case is being used as a test case to determine whether or not railway employees living in a town and occupying houses owned hy the railway should pay municipal taxes. The solicitor appearing for Iroquois Falls is understood to take. the stand that he would not consider the facts in the King/case as proving or disproving cases that occur in the municipality he represents, but that he would attack the agreement existâ€" ing in this matter between the Railâ€" way and its employees. In his evidence Mr. King said the house was used partly for railway purâ€" poses. Three or four time a week he had to interview people at his house in regard _ railway â€" business. The Commission would have the right to use part of the house for office pur: poses if it so desired. He received $212.00 a month, with house, fuel and ligchts. He had an agreement with the Mr. R. H. Parmenter, Toronto, representing the appellant, argued that under the law. where occupancy of a house owned by the Crown was obligatory, the occupant was exempt from municipal rates. He said that had the facts submitted in the King case been presented to the Supreme Court in the case where the court had decided that the railway tenants were not exempt, he was sure the deâ€" cision would have been othen than it hadâ€" been. Mr. Duranceau, solicitor for zoch rane, quoted cases where English preâ€" cedents showed that there should hbe no such exemptions. The agent‘s house was not an office and rarlway business transacted there was merely incidental. Evidence was also given by Senator Gideon Robertson, but the Judge did not consider the Senator‘s evidence as beinz important to the case before the court, and he was not crossâ€" examined. After hearing the evidence and aro OVER A THOUSAND WATCH CLEVER CLIMBING STUNT. Saturday afternoon over a thousand people gathered in front of the Emâ€" pire Hotel to watch Jerry Hudson, ‘the Human Fly,"‘ as he terms himâ€" self, climb the smooth face of the front of the hotel. There was a large proportion of youngsters in the crowd, and also quite a number of women. There was considerable curiosity as to how the smooth brick wall was to be scealed. Some thought the square corner would be used, but when the climber appeared he said he would climb about the centre of the front of the hotel. He made an amusing speech to the crowd, giving a number of interesting facts as well. He said that the dangerous stunts in Harold Lloyd‘s latest picture had been perâ€" formed not by Lloyd but by Hudson. ‘It was my body and Llpyd‘s face,"‘ said Hudson, who explained that the substitution of faces was made after the pictures had been photographed and before the films were made. Hudâ€" son also explained that he coulid not: afford to do his climbing feat for nothing, and so he was taking up a collection to defray expenses. _ He and some boys went through the crowd, and it is said that the money gathered ran over $40,00. At any rate he said it was enough to do the The climb up the four stories of the brick wall was a feat of great cleverness and skill. Hudson added to the interest by his line of humorâ€" ous patter as he went up. He made the climb by going from window to window. He drew himself from one window to the ledge of the next by reaching with his long arms. Though he made the climb in easy fashion apparently it required much skill, considerable strength, much traimning and a good head to do the trick, Of course, he had studied the building beforehand and knew how he could The New Liskeard Speaker last week says:â€"‘‘Mrs. Bd. Reynolds and son Paul, of FTimmins, are visitâ€" ing at the parental home with Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Willars. Little Miss Pat and Jack Reynolds, who have spent the past six weeks with their grandâ€" parents, Mr. and Mrs, D. D. Reyâ€" nolds, of Dymond township, will reâ€" turn home with their mother." Lo oh.A 2t .. dsc it t make it. He had a rope and ring attached at the cornice of the roof and hung there for a second or two by his teeth,. _ Then he climbed the fAlagpole and did a few acrobatic <tunts. on that high eminence. â€" Later, he stood on his head on the edge of the roof. In the evening he repeated the performance before an equally large crowd. « eument â€" judgment was reserved. The regular openâ€"air band concert by the Timmins Citizen‘s Band will be given at the new band stand on Spruce Street on Friday evening of this week. Thursday would be the regular evening for the band conâ€" cert, but as the Band is turning out for the Lancashireâ€"Cornish Benefit Football â€"Match on Thursday night, the regular band concert has been postponed to Friday night.
