When Bonin was arrestâ€" ed two oneâ€"cent pieces, apparently treated with some mixture to give them the appearance of silver, were found in his possession. He was waitâ€" ing trial when he decided to leave on for the fourth annuail HaliowCcen Dail, held under the auspices of Timmins Branch 88, Canadian Legicn. The event this year will be held on PFriday, Oct. s4ist and all intending to be présent are asked to take this notice as a warnâ€" ing to get their costumes ready. Past Hallowe‘en events of the Legion have proven to be outstanding in the numâ€" ber and novelty of the costumes for like events, and this year should prove no exception to the rule. Good prizes wili be awarded for the costumes and patrons are asked to watch The Adâ€" vance for particulars.

He had been allowâ€" ed the freedom of not being locked in a cell but having the run of the corriâ€" daor outside the cells. By the use of an cld auto lamp bracket that had been laft in the corridor Bonin was evidentâ€" ly able to wrench open the door from the sell csrridor into an outer passage where there were no further locks to detain him. He was able to make his getaway without being noticed by anyâ€" cns so far as can be learned.

It is alleged that i they | ‘wo cf the passengers were in an inâ€" | toxicated condition, and the third reaâ€" sober. When several miles ‘rom town the car, through some misâ€" 3. 31; advonture, went into the ditch. Witâ€" I anen returned to Cochrane for a salâ€" yasee car to pull him out, leaving his i ball| nassengers with the car. While Witâ€" AMDS| cnen was away the passengers got into C"Cmi a fight, and Constable Page, in plain Ot:â€") cisthes, and accompanied by his wife, ‘m(’m happened along. The provincial officer warnâ€" fattempted to stop the fight, but was PASt | not only unable to do so but states he Rave | was roughly handled by the two Finâ€" |jlanders He went on to Cochrane and s fO" j secured the aid of Constable Reaviey, prove | of Ansonville, and Constable Kearman, PrizeS l of Coral Rapids. The three went back s and|to the scene on the hishway. In the e Adâ€"| meantime Witanen and a garage man were at work on the auto. Witanen says that when the three constables arrived Page pointed him out to the others as one of the men who had assaulted him, and the three of them pounced on him in spite of the protesâ€" tations of the garage man, and proâ€" ceaded to "bzsat him up," breaking his collar bone and causing other injuries. On his return to Cochrane he charged the three officers with assault, and is suing them jointly for $5,000. One of the despatches from Cochrane in reâ€" ferring to the matter says:â€"*"Popular sympathy appears to be with Witanen, who bears a blameless reputaticn. It is stated that he runs a model hotel and is in every way a respectable and quiet citizen. On the side of the constables it is pointed out that the Finnish residents of the town have an unenviable reputation for carrying knives and using them in combat. They undoubtedly believed that Witanâ€" en was the man who had attacked Page, and assault on a constable is an cffence for which a warrant for arâ€" rest is not required. They were justiâ€" fied in using whatever force was necesâ€" sary to effect the arrest."

Ottawa Journalâ€" Dr. Langsner is now in the limelight in Poland, and rovincial Officers Face Charge of Assault The Bluenose fishermen of Nova Scotia have won a worldâ€"wide reputation as intrepid sailors of the salt waters, and their skill and courage and their stormâ€" beaten schooners have been preserved to posterity in some of the finest of American literature. A typical fishing harbour of Nova Scotia is shown in the upper picture, Lunenburg boats have always been foremost among the fishing fleets and in the foreground can be seen schooners in various stages of conâ€" struction, while anchored in the backâ€" ground are a number of the ships waiting to leave for the banks. At tie bottom is a scene reminiscent of the old world, but one not unusual in the Nova Scotia fishing towns. Itshowsan ox team bringing a catch of cod fish from a schooner upon its arrival in port. The event next week will include a large number of booths with elegant displays of merchandise and noveities. All the booths will be attractively deâ€" corated and well worth a visit every evening. Then there will be the usual games and specialities with a number cf new ones. The prizes will be noâ€" table for quality and value.

One of the special features for the| exhibition and carnival will be a series| of vaudeville acts coming direct from Buffalo, Detroit and Torontco.

The event in the McIntyre hall on Friday evening of next week, Oct. 17th, should draw a bumper house all right. oOUTLOOK AT HOWEY MINE sAID TO BE IMPROVING Howey Gold Mines at Red Lake is sradually being worked ino a position of prosperity. Officials of the company are of opinion that the initial difficulâ€" ties have been overcome and that from this date forward it will be possible to show steady improvement. A feature of the results being obtained is the very large tonnage of ore being placed in sight. The results at the 875 and 1,000â€"foot levels have been particularly favourable. Instead of reckoning a mine of moderate tonnage carrying $6.50 to $7.00 per ton, the cutlock is that the mine will be one of very great tonnags and having an average. reâ€" coverabl> value of about $5.00 per ton. London, Eng.) It is doubtful if any worse Act than the new Road Transport Act could be imagined. . .. To send a man to Jail for stealing and to fine a man £50 for dangerous driving is wicked. There are plenty of excuses for stealing; none for the callous indifference of motorists to human life; the risks which they take ‘are purely selfish, and, what is worse, purely foolish. As for the arguâ€" ment that the pedestrian is at fault, the law should not allow motorists to drive at a pace which requires everyons else cn the roads to be cool, sureâ€"footed and capable of forming quick decisions and judgments of time and istance. Many men who possess none of the qualities necessary to satisfy in a pedestrian are valuable citizens; few motcrists who habitually drive at forty miles an hour are anything of (Douglas Jerrold in the English Review THE CRIMINAL ON THE ROAD A! 36 27 Toronto, â€" Ont. 9thâ€"(Mail)â€"Warm endorsation of the stand taken by Hon. R. B. Bennett in placing Canada in the leadership of the Dominions favouring preferential Empire trade and in makâ€" ing a definite proposal towards such an end was expressed by Toronto finanâ€" ciers and industrialists last night. There will be general interest in the following two despatches coming over the R. E. Jackson Company private wire this morning:â€" London, 8thâ€"(Mail)â€""I propose that we of the British Empire in our joint and several interests, do subscribe to the principleâ€"of an Empire preference and that we take without delay the steps necessary to put it into effective operation." In those words toâ€"day did Canada‘s Prime Minister, Hon. Richard 3. Bennett, leap to the forefront of mpire statesmen at the Imperial Conâ€" evence, launching in terse, clear and #ent language the issue which unâ€" ‘must dominate the conâ€" ference and command the attention of the world. WRIGHTâ€"HARGREAVES HAS NEW HIGH FOR PRODUCTION Despatches this week from Kirklana Lake says:â€" "During the nine months ended Sept. 30th, Wrightâ€"Hargreaves established a new high record in production of gold Preliminary details show approximateâ€" ly $1,750,000 produced during the perâ€" icd. Production so far this year was actually higher than the entire output fcor the full year Grade of ore continues at about $12 per ton and capacity of mill is undergoing further aevelopment. Indications are favourâ€" able for production of close to $700,000 during the remaining three months, in which case total for current year will reach $2,450,000." (C.

It was a train on the Canadian National Railâ€" way, and because the parents were very grateful t6 the crew for the assistance rendered in the emergency they chose names whose initials were identical with those of the road. C. N. R. Turâ€" geon ought always to remember the place of her birth. "And she ought to be very thankful," said the associate who clipped the item and turned it over to me, "that she was not born on a boat of the New Bedford, Marthas Vineyard and Nantucket Steamboat Company."

This position has always been filled preâ€"eminently by a German and this caused considerable comment both here and abroad. This organization of Toronto musiâ€" clans assembled together in Toronto a the latter part of August and made a preâ€"arranged tour of Great Britain and the Continent that proved both a finâ€" ancial and artistic success receiving fine notices from the various European critics.

The Quartette are all returning to Canada within the next few weeks and will leave at once on a coastâ€"toâ€"coast tour of Canada and this will be followâ€" ed by an American tour which will keep them fully occupied until the spring of 1931. I am afraid there would be an unâ€" convincing note in any threat, whether made by farmers and farm labourers or by any other section of the community, to abstain from drinking beer for three months, such as a member of Parliaâ€" ment urged upon his hearers â€"Aat an agricultural show. If the use of forâ€" eign barley was sufficient to drive beer drinkers to this heroic kind of protest, many of our unemployment problems would be easily solved. The picture of a farm labourer, after a thirsty day‘s work, torn between the temptation to take his pint at the "Rose and Crown" and his determination to support home industries would be one of infinite pathos.
