He laughed as he was led from the court by deputies, back to Dade county jail. murder. He was sentenced to 20 years in each case, this being the, maximum. The prisoner may yet be tried for murâ€" der as two others in the Roosevelt parâ€" ty, Mayor Anton Cermak, of Chicago, and Mrs. J. H. Gill, of Miami, Florida, are seriously wounded and fighting for their lives in a Miami hospital. Zangara showed only a spark of inâ€" terest as the charges were read to him, His chief counsel, Lewis Twyman, said he would plead guilty. AUTHORIZED DEALEKES Soon ! had had Zangara, replying to a quest.on said the American people and everybody mistreated him. He was sorry he not killed Roosevelt. the mayor. Of Mrs. Gill it was said her condition was very encouraging. ‘The prompt way in which Zangara was dealt with and the despatech shown in his trial and conviction are creditâ€" able to United States law enforcement, at leas? in this case. The judge said he was unquestionâ€" ably sane. ' Monday were both reported as recoverâ€" ing. Dr. FPrederick Tice, Chicago heart specialist, after a consultation of atâ€" tending physic:ans said he believed Re could look forward to a full recovery of Sunday evening the haome of Joseph Krmpovitch on Saturday evening was destroyed by fire following the explosâ€" ion of a bomb. The family had just left the house when the explosion ocâ€" curred, doing considerable damage to the building and this destruction being completedbyaflreflmtmcamedby the bomk. The police are investigating the case very carefully as there have been recent threats at Sault Ste., Marie that bombs were to be used.. ‘The house was valued at $6,000.00 and the furnishâ€" ings of the residence added more to the damage caused by the bomb outrage. For some ‘time past there have been reports that the communist element in Sault Ste. Marie planned various forms of outrage and terrorism. ‘The police are not convinced that this incident of the destruction of} the. Krmpovitch home is not connected in some way or another with the communist threats. In any event the occurrence is going to be investigated very thoroughly. In a recent address Hon. James Lyons, mayor of Sault Ste. Marie took occasion to refer to the growing menace of the sommunists and their tactics of terrorâ€" ism and destruction. There will be general interest in the investigation of the bomb outrage to see what disclosâ€" ures will be made in regard to any orâ€" ganized attempt at violence. Yarmouth Herald:â€"Prof. Stephen Leacock, of McGill University finds one cheerful feature in the depression. "It is a kind of comradeship," he told the Women‘s Canadian Club. "The old deâ€" pressions were mostly confined to the BOMB EXPLODES AND MOME AT SAULT IS DESTROYED pmr, but this new depression has hit us all." Professor Leacock must be .a philasopher as well as an economist and humorist when he can join the poor cheerfully. 8 Balsam Street South At the annual meeting of the Timâ€" mins board of trade for. 1923, T. P. King was elected president, D. Ostros« was left to select his own "cabinet," which he did later as follows:â€"mining, C. G. Williams; transportation, D. Ostrosser; fire protection and insurâ€" Brazeau; mercantile, W. Rinn; legisâ€" lation, G. H. Gauthier; lumbering and settlement, G. A. Macdonald. The following paragraph appeared in The Advance of Feb. 21st, 1923;â€""The Township of Tisdale is serlously conâ€" sidering the purchase of an up»toâ€"date tractor; in fact, it is understood that the purchase has practically been deâ€" cided upon. ‘The tractor will be used to drive the snow plough for the roads during the winter season, and in the rest of the year it will be utilized for various township purposes, but more especially for the transpd#ation : of heavy materials used in the public works of the municipality.. The townâ€" ship is understood to be Hikely. to purâ€" chase a portable stone crusher for road right up-to-da,te and keeps well abreast of the times in its municipgl activities." The fact that at one time New Lisâ€" keard was the great hockey town of the. North . is recalled by the following paragraph in The . Advance ten: yg.rs y“l hatd â€" ~vitebet w ME o s n t n ago:â€"‘"In the . Intermediate ~N.O.H.A. finals, Liskeard and Cochrane met on Timmins ice last Friday evening as home ice for Cochrane, the latter havâ€" ing no covered rink. There was only a fair attendance of fans. Cochrane put up a gallant battle and had the symâ€" pathy and support of the erowd, but were outclassed by the Liskeard team, which is practically the same as the senior team of previous years. ‘The score was 9 to 2. In the return game at Liskeard Yt,he latter again won 24 to 2. Liskeard hopes for similar successes with the southern group champions in the intermediate class." Oldâ€"timers in the Porcupine will reâ€" member the Connaught Minstrel, a group of Connaught artists who put on a specially pleasing show. In writing about this minstrel show The Advance of Feb. 21ist, 1923, said:â€""There must have been nearly two hundred and fifty people packed into the schoolhouse at Connaught last Friday evening to witâ€" ness the first public appearance. of the Connaught Amateur Minstrels, The jokes to a great extent were local and good, but the big hit of the evening was the female impersonation by Billy O‘Donnell, who. completed his mystiâ€" fication of the audience by his song in falsetto, soprano voice of good tone. Bill Farmer made a capable interlocuâ€" tor, while the end men, Ned Le Sauteur, Doug. Warren, Leo Racicot and Max McBurnie, put their jokes over in great style.. Doug‘s little dance made a@a hit, while Ned reminded one of Eddie Cantor or Al Joison. Leo Racicot‘s acâ€" cent would make you think you were in the cotton fields and molasses, while as a humorist McBurnie is in a class by himself.. Ned Le Sauteur‘s rendering of "Georgette" assisted by "Miss" Billy O‘Donnell, was really good and the Scotch turn by Farmer and> McBurnie Preston nets twice before the call of time and little Hardy more than once 9 1 was a riot. The chorus singing was very pleasant feature of the programme which was creditably arranged a_n_d presented." To the above may be addâ€" ed that among the outstanding features on the long and varied programme were the following:â€""Opening chorus, Old Black Joe, by the entire company;, song, Caroline, Sunshine, by Master Geo. McBurnie; banjo solo, Sabres and Spurs, by Jim‘ Reid; dulcimer duet, Paul Bertramd and Miss reading, Gunga Din, by Fred Burt; grand finale, popular choruses, by Conâ€" naught jazz band." . Under the heading of "Timmins Boys Making Good in Hockey in the South,"‘ The Advance ten years ago had the folâ€" lowing reference to Wilfred Hardy and Chas. Jemmett:â€""From recent issues of the Paris, Galt and Brantford newsâ€" papers, it is evident that Messrs Chas. Jemmett, and Wilfred Hardy are both making a decided hit in southern hocâ€" key and building up an enviable repuâ€" tation for speed and ability as players. both these former Timmins young men are with Paris Junior O.H.A. team and the press generally has been very com» plimentary in reference to their good work. The Brantford Expositor in reâ€" porting a recent game in which Paris defeated Preston 10 to 3 says:â€""Grifâ€" fiths, Jemmett and Hardy were the sharpshooters. In the first perâ€" iod Jemmett shot the puck into the to a match in the OH.A. Junior series between Paris and Galt, a recent issue of the Galt Reporter gives an extended reference to the game "with special mention of the former Timmins playâ€" ers. The Reporter refers to "Jemmett at centre ice, a nice stickhandler and skater, getting three goals," out of seven counts that won the Paris, the Galt Juntors on z?;.g ty. twice. > "Paris" says the Reporter, "has the Tom Thumb of O.H.A. in Wilfred Hardy, a cute little chap, 16 years, who came to Paris from Timmins.. He is D report of the game, and to judge by the report and the score, Jemmett and Hardy more than did their part in the winning of the game. A report from the Preston Progress of a game in which Paris Juniors lost out 56 to 4 makes inâ€" teresting reading. The match is desâ€" cribed as a close, hard checking game, with Preston having the edge on the play until the last 8 minutes when Paris staged a big comeâ€"back.

Though lighter than _Pre,mm this advantage is more or less offset by smoother team play. Jemâ€" mett, the centre man, and McCutcheon on left wing, were the two best. Hardy, weighing about 90 pounds, surprised everybody with his good work. He is right with the play all the time, and light as he is, he "stepped" into his heavier opponents in a manner which showed that he knows how and is not faintâ€"hearted. . He is a comer. The many friends of Messrs Jemmett and Hardy in this camp will be pleased to see how well they are making good in hockey in the south." â€"‘‘Ten years ago organization of the Timmins Male Chorus was completed. The following officers were elected. Honorary president, A. F. Brigham; honorary viceâ€"presidents, T. F. King, pr. Mogre, Dr. McInnis, C. G. Williams, Rev. Fr. Theriault, G. A. Macdonald; president, W. Dodge; viceâ€"president, J. T. secretaryâ€"treasurer, J. E. Garrett; executive committee, T. F. King, W. Dodge, J. T. Heffernan, J. E. Garrett, K. Moore, a. W. Snow, anc E. R. Street. R. R. Johnson, pianist at the New Empire theatre was chosen as leader of the Timmins Male Chorus. It was a remarkably talented organizaâ€" tion and won very general approval. ~‘The Advance ten years ago had the following:â€""A very pleasing and sucâ€" cessful masquerade dance was given on the evening of St. Valentine‘s Day in the 1.Q.O0.F. hall, South Porcupine, the hostesses being Mesdames Dowser, Evans, Gauthier, Morgan, McInnis, Way and Wood. About seventyâ€"five couples were present and all had a deâ€" lightful evening. Many invited guests were present from Timmins, Schuâ€" macher, the Dome and camp generally. Fine music was furnished by Brown‘s orchestra of Timmins. The costumes were noteworthy in originality, and charm, the number and variety of the fancy costumes being a special feature of the evening. Cards and other social pleasures were enjoyed and each item on the delightful evening‘s programme from the artistic decorations of the hall to the pleasing refreshments served had been carefully looked after and provâ€" ea. most attractive and enjoyable." ~‘Ten years ago building operations were started for a new picture theatre in â€"Mattagami Heights, then just anâ€" nexed to the town of Timmins. The new theatre was planned to be erected opposite the River Road Drug Store, then owned and conducted of D. Gray. The chances for a theatre in Mattagami looked good for a short time but later were not so good as the town showed disposition to grow more to the south and north. In any event the Mattaâ€" gami theatre was found to be impracâ€" tical and it was not COntnnued to comâ€" pletion. Among the local ana personal items in The Advance ten years ago were the following:â€""‘Mr. R. A. McInnis, of Ir3â€" quois Fialls was a guest at the Empire Cluwb, Toronto, last week, one of the special features of ‘the occasion being an address by Mr. A. A. Cole, Mining Engineer for the T. N. O.

"William Gamble, a wellâ€"known and popular resident of Porquis Junction, died recently at Cochrane hospital from attack of influenza followed by typhoid fever.‘" "His Honour Hugh Hartman, is on the sick list from the grippe." "Mrs. E. Upton, of New Liskeard, was the guest here last week of her son, Mr. Roy Upton." "All will regret to learn of the illness of Mrs. A. Skelly, and all will wish her an early and comâ€" plete return to health." "His many friends in the camp where he has been an esteemed resident for many years, will regret to learn of the illness of Mr. J. E. Salmon, of Sixth evenue." "The road between Iroquois Falls and Porâ€" quis Junction has been receiving some having been at work recently putting cintdlers on the section of road way, according to reports from the district." "His many friends in this part of the North Land will be delighted to know that that Mr. R. A.

Timmins Club Heads List for December Attendance The Kâ€"Ray, official publication of the Kiwanis, is to hand for the current month, and has more than one item of interest to Timmins Kiwanis and people here generally. Probably chief interest will centre in the list of Deâ€" cember attendance of the clubs in this Kiwanis including Ontario, Quebec and the Maritime provinkces. There are 45 elubs in ‘the list and for attendance the Timmins Kiwanis Club heads them all. Timmins is first with 88.79 per cent. attendance, a record surely for the month of December with all its other calls on time and attention. There are only six clubs with overâ€"80 per cent. for ‘the month;â€"Timmins, 88.79; Owen Sound, 86.5;â€" Galt, 84.90; St. Stephen, N.B., 84.1; Noranda, 83.6; Orillia, 81. Other towns in the North are below their usual attendance marks, due, no doubt to the season. The same is true of the clubs in genâ€" eral. New Liskeard‘s percentage of atâ€" tendance is given as 5747; Cobalt, 62; and Kirkland Lake, 77.09. Timmins won some special honour in leading them all in a month like December and with a percentage like 88.79. Another item in the current Kâ€"Ray is a reference to Timmins club. under the heading, "December Activities," as follows:â€" "Timminsâ€"The club completed plans for, and inaugurated in conjunction with employers, a system of collecting donations towards relief of distress in the community, making an appeal to all those in employment, whether emâ€" ployers or employees, to give aone day‘s pay to a community relief fund..
