though his accent sug‘gested United States nativity, faced a number of charges. though only two were pressed. He pleaded guilty to the charge of car- rying a concealed weapon, and on this charge was fined $25.00 and costs, or one month in jail. On the other charge of the theft of a coat from an automo- bile he pleaded not guilty. but would not give evidence in his own behalf. He was sentenced on this charge to three months in jail. When the young man was arrested several coats were found in his packsack. these coats be- ing ones reported stolen from automo- biles during the past couple of weeks. Two of these coats were the property of Cochrane people. one of them having the owner‘s name on the tailor's label in the pocket. In addition to the gun .he was carrying when arrested. White had a large number of keys in his pos- session. The police think he has been responsible for a number of the recent thefts from automobiles. A local man who shared the shack where White has been living here and where the goods were found was charged with receiving stolen goods but the charge was with- drawn in court as there was nothing to implicate this local man in the thefts. The Cochrahe people were giv- en the coats stblen from their automo- bile. [ADDERWAYS M SHAHS MUSI BE fUllY PRUIEGIED A case at the police court this week indicated that all the regulations un- der the Mining Act must be observed even by small mines. It is well for the smaller properties to know this and to profit by the knowledge. At this week's police court there was a charge against the De Santis Gold Mines in Ogden township laid by Ralph H. Cle- land, mining inspector for this district, that work was allowed to be carried on in the shaft of the said mines on the first day of August and previous there- to without the ladder or mssageway in the said shaft being separated by a substantial closely boarded partition from the compartment or division of the said shaft in which the materlai was hoisted, contrary to the Mining Act of Ontario, Section 163, paragraph 90. The crown attorney, S. A. Cald- bick, explained that this was a serious matter in some cases. but in small mines the provision of the law was not always observed. though it was neces- sary that it should be for the fullest measure of safety to workmen. In view of the fact that some of the smal- ler mines did not realize perhaps the fact that there )vas such a provision in the law and that it was very neces- sary that it should be observed, it was well for all small mines to take due notice and warning from the present case. The crown attorney suggested that in the present case leniency might be shown in the penalty in view of the fact that the breach of the law involved had probably not been properly under- stood. A fine of $100.00 and costs was imposed by the magistrate. Ludwig Johnson charged with taking $600.00 more from the Imperial Bank than he was entitled to. and who was Heavy Fine Imp01 ;crve Mining Other Cases 2 Imposed {or Failure to 0b- [lnlng Law Regulations. Cases at Police Court Here This Week. Swift Canadian C0. A Pure Vegetable SHORTENING F or -etter Results U S E It has been frequently advocated by the various public bodies in Northern Ontario, and nothing could aid so much in the development here as this. Pre- mier Ferguson has always shown him- self as a friend to us in the North, and we respectfully commend this sugges- tion for his consideration. Given a separate department, under a capable minister. with the interests of the set- tlers at heart, and progressive develop- ment along agricultural lines here would be assured. Settlement is at present in a condition of stagnation. Settlers are abandoning farms in alarmingly large numbers and the situ- ation is one that calls for drastic treat- ment. We are suffering here from ar- rested development, caused in no small degree by a lack of first hand know- ledge on the part of departmental ofll- cials at Queen's Park. A case in point is the answer to the request that the farms be put back on the 160 acre basis the deputy minister of Northern De- velopment stating that “No successful farmer in the North was farming more than 80 acres." While we have no doubt that the Deputy Minister in question has the best of intentions, we cannot help but feel that a more inti- mate knowledge of northern conditions would materially alter his attitude in regard to our many problems.” remanded from last week. was again before the court yesterday. In the meantime the money has been rc~ turned to the bank, and after a lecture to the defendant on the need for straight honesty in all dealings and the necessity for returning any money paid in mistake. the magistrate told John- son that he was fortunate in escaping a jail term. The case was then dis- missed. John-son came here recently from Winnipeg and the overpayment to him followed a, mistake bv one of the Winnipeg bank clerks in entering up his account. Two common drunks were fined the common ten and costs. One speeder paid $10.00 and costs. For breach of the parking by- law a Noxth Bay motoxist contributed $2 00 and costs. A wages case against a local barber shop was dismissed, the magistrate sug- gesting the Division Court as the pro- per place to collect the account. The cases arising from the non- -payâ€" ment of a number of women for berry picking were remanded, the defendant not yet having been located by the police. ' In juvenile court there were a num- ber of cases where youngsters were charged with theft, one of the thefts being that of a parcel from the post office. In this case the boys concerned had to pay the cost of the goods in the parcel. and also were ordered to report weekly to the C.A.S. inspector. The following editorial appeared in The Cochrane Northland Post last week :â€"-“Premier. Ferguson has again re- cognized the importance of Northern Ontario by appointing Dr. Robb of Al- goma to a cabinet position. We would respectfully urge the Premier to go a step farther and form a separate de~ partment for the administration of the lands of the North. under a minister from the North. We earnestly hope that the reorganizing of the cabinet. which. according to press reports is not yet completed. will include this move. Urging Separate Dept. for Settlers of North Limited “Secretary Lowman who has charge of these importations into the United :States has stated that while he believes this wood is the product of convict or enforced labour it was not so proven, and the official of the Russian Repre- sentative Government testified that it was not. and that there was no one that had actually seen it made by con- victs. thought the crews of the ships said those loading the same\at Ar- changel were herded intc‘ an enclosure at night and kept under guards. and arm- ed guards. and other guards marched them down to the steamers and watch- ed them in twelve hour shifts while the loading was going on. “The US. do not officially 1' the Soviet Government. and t factor in obtaining evidence 0: to proceed." Not only has Timmins a handsome new post office, but the old post office building so long more or less of an eye- sore is now a handsome appearing double store building. This week the alteration of the building was com- pleted and when the scaffolding was removed from the front two handsome store fronts were disclosed. The front is finished in oak with large expanses of plate glass and the appearance is both attractive and of the modern city type. The stores inside are equaizy pleasing and will be an acquisition to the business buildings of the town. The store next to the Hotel Goldfields block will be occupied by Mark Bowie and the handsome windows will give poortunity for full display of clothing and menls furnishings. Mr. Bowie is moving into his new store this wee and will be all ready in the new pre- mises next week for all customers. HANDSOME NEW STORES IN PLACE OF OLD POST OFFICE “I do not think you Canadians are really alive to the vast possibilities of your pulpwood market being ciosed you. as they surely will be for there is right now another steamer load at Three Rivers, Que. and they have several more en route there. Now it is evident that Canada and the Eastern United States has been furnishing the mills with enough wood to supply their needs, and when there is say 90 steamer loads shipped this year, and they expect to bring in 1,000,000 cords of it next year then we shall have to make wood as good as theirs and make the price equally as low as they have or we are not going to have any business." “What the trouble ls most of the set- tlers already know. On August 28th there arrived at Sorel. Que. a large steamer from Archangel. Russia, loaded with pulpwcod and destined for points in the US. In a letter from a promin- ent lumber merchant in the States the followlng paragraph appears:â€" Mrs. Eva Dooley was operated on at the St. Mary‘s hospital on Sept. 14th for appendicitis, and all will be pleased to know that she is making rapid pro- gress to recovery. The Pulpwood Situation In the North Country ”The seriousness of the situation as it affects the pulpwood export from this north country ought to be well un- derstood. There will be little pulpwood shipped by rail this winter from these parts. and this creates a serious situa- tion for the settler.

His attention was at- tracted by one of the “playthlngs.” a stone which shined rather radiantly. When the mother saw the farmer ad- miring it she gave it to him as a me- mento, thinking that it was only an ordinary pebble. which had been gathered from the banks of the neigh- bouring river. The “pebble" however proved to be a twenty-one carat blue white diamond of the purest water, Soon afterwards, the same farmer saw a similar stone in the possession of a Hottentot and secured possession in exchange for a. horse and a dozen oxen. The “shiny stone" which the Hotten- tot had thought valuable only as a kind of charm was no other than the later famous “Star of South Africa." which was subsequently purchased by the Earl of Dudley for the sum of 3100.000. One of the highlights of the Tran- sylvania‘s Great African Cruise of 1931 is a visit to the vast acres of diamonds at Kimberley. This internationally known city is a day‘s journey northward from Capetown. on the fascinating nhree thousand-mile inland trek in South Africa. and has for over a century held the enviable reputation of being the greatest Golconda of modern times.
