Atkinson was presiding at the trial of C. Sanâ€" drelli, North Bay, who was in court on charges in connection with the Ontario Temperance Act. A raid was made on Sandrelli‘s residence and liquor said to be valued at over $11,000.00 was seized. The raid was made by special officers and an alarm of fire was turned in, the firemen being sworn in as special conâ€" stables to conduct the raid. Magistrate Atkinson convicted Sandrelli and senâ€" tenced him to serve six months in jail, with the liaquor being confiscated. An appeal was entered against the convicâ€" tion. The defence was a general denial of the allegations made by the special officers who worked on the case, toâ€" gether with an alibi for the accused, several witnesses being called to swear that Sandreili was in Toronto on the dates he was charged with selling liâ€" quor. In reference to the immense amount of liquor kept by Sandrelli it was claimed by the defence that Sanâ€" drelli, who was known as the "King of #Â¥ s n3 ies t PS us h\ ty a2n 02e 0n 43e 200000 o2 a¢n n atnate a n en ate en e <â€" A New 1932 Last week in the news columns of The Advance mention was made of the expected transfer of Provincial Police Inspector Moore from Cobalt to Kitâ€" chener. Ten years ago Officer Moore was on the provincial police force as the officer at South Porcupine. In The Agvance of Sept. 28th, 1921, mention was made that Officer Moore had been appointed inspector for the Northern division in succession to Arthur Rowell, resigned. In commenting on the apâ€" Ten years ago the Timmins fire hall was improved and increased in size, an addition being built to house new equipment purchased. The platform in front of the fire hall was replaced by a cement one and other improvements were made. Whils Magistrate Atkinson was at North Bay ten years ago conducting the trial of Sandrelli, at the direct request | of the attorneyâ€"general, the police court at Timmins was taken by Police Magâ€" istrate E. R. Tucker, of Cochrane, Magistrate Tucker made a very favourâ€" able impression here by his method of conducting court and the ability and skill he evidenced in deciding cases. One of the interesting and amusing cases was that of amw Indian charged with being drunk. In court this Inâ€" dian gave the impression that he could not speak English, and so an interpreâ€" ter would be necessary. This was not so good, as the difficulty of securing a suitable interpreter in such a case would take time and money. Magisâ€" trate Tucker, however, easily surâ€" mounted the difficulty. He spoke to the Indian in his own language and the Indian was so surprised and pleasâ€" ed‘ that he kept on smiling even when he paid $10.00 and costs for being drunk. Magistrate Tucker was formerâ€" ly a Hudson Bay Company factor and in that capacity had learned the Inâ€" dian language. | the Italians," was a racing man, with hosts of friends, and famous for his hospitality. The evidence generally was so contradictory that Magistrate Atkinson commented that one side or the other must certainly have been guilty of perjury.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO pointment The Advance said:â€""For |the past three years Officer Moorse has |been the provincial officer stationed at |South Porcupine. He has followed the | lines of his duty without fear or favour, land his own personal life has been an , ample in right living. Inspector Walter Moore‘s territory covers from Temagami to Cochrane and west some distance on â€"the Transcontinental. Normally, he will have five officers in his inspectorate, one at Gowganda, one l at Cochrane, one at Englehart and one ‘at South Porcupine. The government is also said to be considering the apâ€" | pointment of a couple of other officers for the North Land; one to be at Porâ€" quis Junction, and one for the Mattaâ€" gami river area. At the present time no appointments have been made, though they seem to be deésirable in view of the immense territory, much of it unorganized, now supposed to be ! covered by the officer in the Porcupine camp." To this latter mention it may |be added that The Advance had conâ€" ‘sistently urged the appointment of ; ‘more provincial police officers for this ‘part of the North Land. With only ,five officers in the immense territoryl referred to it did not seem fair either to the police or to the public to con-‘ tinue to allow five men to attempt to' properly police so big an area. | # Miss Lillian Kellatt, deaconess of the Upper Capada Tract Society, was in the camp ten years ago making the annual collection of funds for the society‘s missions for sailors onâ€"inland waters. The total of the subscriptions collected by Miss Kellatt amounted to $151.92. The sad news was received in Timmins l The Advance \ten years ago had the following paragraph:â€""An incident ocâ€" ,currmg at the Paymaster Mine recentâ€" ly has been causing some amusement to folks in general, and also some interest to those supernaturally inclined. A mother bear and two cubs were driven off the Dome and West Dome properâ€" ties onto the Paymaster. As soon as the bears were driven from the Dome, the stock of the Dome began to climb on the market running from $18.50 to $23.00. Then the mother bear and two cubs on the Paymaster were shot, the men doing the trick saying:â€""We don‘t need to shoot the bull about this proâ€" perty, but we‘ve got to get rid of the bears to save our bacon." After the bears were gotten off tke Paymaster property some specially pleasing finds were made. Now, the president, A. S. Fuller, says that although he is not supersitious nor a believer in signs or omensâ€"stillâ€"well, anyway, he says he. never did have any use for the "bears" that try to raid the mining camps." Teéen years ago The Advance had many articles in regard to the idea that the North Land was the "market garâ€" den of the province," and that it was difficult to excel this country in the growing of vegetables. In the issue of Sept. 28th, 1921 The Advance got down to specific cases, taking the garden of Paddy Rome on the Mattagami River road as an example. The garden in question was but a few blocks from the heart of the town. In commenting on this garden, The Advance said, in part: "Mr. Rowe has a garden that would _ _Under the heading, "A Pretty House Wedding‘ on Elm Street Last Week,‘ The Advance ten years ago said:â€""A quiet but pretty house wedding took place at the home of the bride‘s mothâ€" er, Mrs. H. Twaddle, Elm street on Tuesday of last week, Sept. 28th, when Miss Ellen Twaddle and Mr. Robert Russell were united in the bonds of matrimony. Only the immediate friends and relatives of the contracting parties were in attendance. Rev. J. D. Parks, pastor of the Timmins Presbyâ€" terian Church, officiated. Mr. and Mrs. Russell have taken up residence in Timmins in one of the houses of the new Hollinger townsite. During their residence in town, both the bride and groom have made many friends and all will extend sincere good wishes at this time." | Ten years ago The Advance was rather fierce in some of its expressions! There were rumours of curtailment of the service on the T. N. O. At that time the telephone service was not so bad, the post office service was not so good, and the railway service was betâ€" ter than it had been, but The Advance was afraid it might get worse if curâ€" tailed. The Advance ten years ago had a report of the wedding at Sudbury on Sept. 26th, 1921, of A. T. Laronde and Miss Bertha Lefebvre, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs, A. S. Lefebvre, of Sudbury. They were married at St. Ann‘s church, Sudbury, by Rev. Fr. Desjardins. After the ceremony they left for a honeymoon trip to Timmins and later returned to Sudbury to take _up residence. Also The Advance had the following paragraph:â€"‘"Two very enjoyable evenings were spent by friends at the home of Mrs. T. J. Lawâ€" dlor last week on the occasion of the visit/to Timmins of her brother, A. T. Laronde, and his bride. On the arriâ€" val of the young couple here they were showered with confetti, after which the party of over thirty friends spent a pleasant social evening during which a very tasty supper was served. _ On Thursday evening again Mrs. Lawlor had a number of friends in and a very enjoyable evening was spent by all. Mr. and Mrs. Laronde, left on Saturday morning for Sudbury where they will reside and where they are followed by all good wishes for success and hapâ€" piness from their friends in Timmins." Ten years ago The Advance referred to the fact that the March Gold Mines were installing a mining plant, under the supervision of A. S. Crowe. Anâ€" other paragarph on mining said that the West Dome and Dome Lake merger was expected soon. Announcement was made ten years ago that the Hollinger Stores would be open Saturday evenings until 9.30 p.m. for the convenience of eustomers. The Advance had a reference ten years ago to the wedding at Sault Ste. Marie of Major Howard McNamara, coach of Sudbury‘s senior hockey team, with Major and Mrs. George McNaâ€" mara attending the bridal couple. » I i Ten years ago The Advance had the fcllowing which will be of interest to hosts of friends again:â€""J. D. Macâ€" Lean, formerly town foreman and deâ€" puty fire chief here, and more recently one of the assistants to the town enâ€" gineer, left for Ottawa to be present at his own wedding in the capital city on Tuesday. Jack said he wouldn‘t miss this particular wedding for anyâ€" thing. On Tuesday this very popular and muchâ€"esteemed oldâ€"timer of the North Land, was married to Miss Carr, sister of Mrs. L. S. Newton, Mrs. Fitzâ€" gerald, and Mrs. E. Rogers. The bride is well known and popular in Timmins and the couple will receive the very sincere and hearty good wishes of hosts of friends in Timmins and district. Mr. and Mrs. MacLean will take up residence on Cedar street, Timmins, after their return from their wedding trip. An indication of the popularity of the groom and the sincere regard and affection in which he is held by those who know him best was given by the hosts of good wishes showered upon him during the past week or two. In several cases there was parties and preâ€" sentations. With the Timmins Fire Brigade, of which he has been a valued member for many years, the feeling was expressed in tangible form. The Brigade presented Jack with a handâ€" some and valuable bedroom suite as a token of this regard." l ten years ago of the death of Thomas James, of Toronta, a former wellâ€" known and popular prospector and miner of the Porcupine in the early days. The late Mr. James was the victim of an unfortunate mishap, pickâ€" ing up bottle containing corrosive subMmate and starting to drink it in the belief that it was ginger ale. Beâ€" fore he noted the poison label he had taken a heavy drink of the poison. Despite all that the doctors summoned at once could do he died shortly after the accident. The late Mr. James was born at Bruce Mines, Ontario, in 1861. and so was sixty years of age at the time of death. He lived for several years in South Porcupine. The widow in Toronto, two brothers in the Porcuâ€" pine, and sister living in Toronts, were among the near relatives survivâ€" ing. Mr. James was a member of the Masonic Order and of the Oddfellows. He was very generally popular and resâ€" pected and there was much sorrow at his death.

His crops ithis year were bigâ€"big in the size of the crops, and big in the size of the individual specimens. But if the size Iweree truly remarkable, the quality was even more so. Potatoes, cabbage, cauliâ€" flower, radish, turnips, tomatoes, etc., etc., were grown in this garden truly noteworthy alike in quantity and qualâ€" its. Some folks have said that while green tomatoes were usually a big sucâ€" cess here, the market gardener of the North could not ripen them. "Can‘t eh?" asks Paddy. "Well, what do you think of these?" "These" were ripe. red tomatoes that would make the mouth of any tomato lover water. So it was with practically every line of market garden produce.
