of this senseless trick of defacing the library books should be prosecuted first and then be examined around the head for frostbites. _ It is not likely that there are any books in the public library that are liable to do bharm to anyone by the language that may be in them. If such books should be in the library they should be withdrawn from cn'culatxon, not â€"defaced.â€"Those have to study AnN D vid335ts CApCCLCU, YLFPFS,. N. A these classes.

This person anparently ones throuch aach valnma that mining matters and al classes wWeOrQe so Interest in mining is evident on atl sides at present. The unusual aâ€" mount of trading in mining stocks on the Standard Mining Exchange these days is one sample of the activity of this interest. Another evidence is given by the fact that classes held for prospectors at Ottawa the other day special public Just as the young people are often inclined to think the older folks are slow and conservative, so on this new continent there is a tendency to believe that for speed we have the older lands completély outclassed. In speed withâ€" out purpose other than for speed‘s own sake this may be true. But when speed with a purpose is considered, this country can learn much from the Old Land overseas. For instance a few days ago the Royal Scottish Express madeâ€"a nonâ€"stop run from London to Carlisle, England,â€"a â€" distance of 300 milesâ€"in 3 hours and 34 minutes.~ This was a rate approaching a mile and half a minute.

Reports from Cochrane suggest that a comparatively large number of provincial police have been gathered at Cochrane for some weeks past seekâ€" ing the murderer of the Russian who was shot some seven miles out in the country. It is to ‘be hoped that these police are having a good time, beâ€" ‘ause they do not seem to be doing much good to the cause of law and order, so far as results are concerned. Perhaps a few less uniforms and a little hard work in plain clothes might accomplish more. The provincial departâ€" ment of seems to fail to recognize the difference between the work of ordinary police and that of detectives. The men on the force are not to be blamed, but there does seem to be something wrong with the system. ldoay Wwas a cowardly murder that was a direct chalilenge to law and order. The provincial police apparently adopted the plan of freezâ€" ing out the murderer of the settler, while their method for the murderer of the inspector seems to have been that of patiently waiting until the cowardly assassin met his own death by old age. If the authorities are unable to do anything to trace the murderer of Inspector Constable, the services of others should be secured. It is one murder that espocially should not go without solution and punishment. It was a direct challenge to law and deceneyv.

On August 22 last financial writers first extended their vocabuâ€" laries to describe the 2,000,000 share mart which developed on that date. Their effort seemed justified when, for a few weeks, the market slumped slightly away from that figure. Om Monday of last week, however, anâ€" other hectic wave of activity burst upon the exchange and the writers had to dwarf their previous descripâ€" tions in order to do justice to a 3,000,â€" Records on the Standard Stock Exâ€" change seem to exist these days only to be broken. Another went by the boards, ‘Monday, when 3,960,362 shares changed hands. _ The figure which this total superseded was that of the previous Monday, when 3,686,â€" 38 shares figured in the day‘s trading. It is two weeks now since the preâ€" sent phenomenal mining market deâ€" veloped, and still it gives no evidence of having expended any of its frenzy. Rather does it seem to achieve a scale of trading which even the most extravagant ‘"bull"‘‘ operator would be satisfied to call a climaxâ€"only to surpass it and become still more heetic.

Report of the result of the highâ€" grading cases will be given in the ne\t issue of The Advance.

Such boxes would not be costly and in a town as widelyâ€"spread as Timmins they certainly would be of great advantage.

Such language may not be used in the most refined society, but books naturally and properly do not deal altogether with polite society. ‘Within reasonable limits books should reproduce life as it is; and life is full of words such as those blotted out of the Timmins library books by the purist, who like many purists seems to have a nasty turn of mind. The deleting of robust expressions in common use may be carried to a foolish extreme. For instance, a recent magazine that particularly watches the lanâ€" guage used in the stories that appear within its covers had in an issue a few weeks ago a story of a very plausible and attractive criminal, This criminal. when questioned by a detective told a story that was untrue on the face of it.
