They expect to reach Vancouver in a few weeks time, but this depends on the activity of the train crew and the police at Yellek and other intermediate polints Mr. Rod Rider was unfortunately unable to acâ€" company his lifelong friends. He is doâ€" ing a stretch though at Burwash. At Kirkland Lake Thomas Cameron and George Leysen were sentenced to thirty days in jail for the theft of three cases of dynamite from the Macassa Mine qproperty. Their defence was that a man whom they did not know and whom they had not seen since asked them to get the dynamite for him and take it to another mine. They were caught as they were carrying the exâ€" plosive to a car they had, the superâ€" intendent of the Macassa coming across the men in the bush. The magistrate was not much impressed by the story of the third manâ€"the real "forgotten man," who used to figure in so many liquor cases under the old O. T. A. MEN GIVEN JAIL TERMS FOR TAKING DYNAMITE FROM MINE During the course of his talk he reâ€" counted in graphic detail particulars of his last "job", as one of the notorious "Biddle Boys," of Pennsylvania, and for which crimeâ€"a train holdâ€"upâ€"he was sentenced to death. He later was given life imprisonment. Mr. Biddle made mention in this connection of the series of articles runâ€" ning in the Toronto Globe, by Dr. Withrow. "But never mind what you read of your prison system in the newspapers," he caustioned the Kiwanians. "The newspapers don‘t do justice to your penal institutions." The speaker in his defence of the Canadian â€" prison system, advocated less of the military discipline to the Canadian system and more recreation for the inmates. Mr. Biddle was introduced to the gathering by Kiwanian President Mel Hunt and also by Bill Barager, chairâ€" man of the program committee. The former inmate, who was once conâ€" demned to death, is speaking at the Strand Theatre on Sunday, when he will deliver a lecture of two hours and a half, accompanied by pictures. ‘For the Boys of Today" "I‘m fighting a battle for the boy of today," began Mr. Biddle, in his talk to the Kiwanians. "Do not fool yourself that you have only a very little crime in Canada. You have a lot of it. In 1931 no less than 354,415 cases were tried in your courts, and of the total nearly 11,000 of these were juvenile cases." The guest speaker â€" urged shorter prison terms and the frequent use of the lash as a cure for crime. Capital punishment, he asserted, will never stop crime. "It‘s the boy of toâ€"day who is filling our prisons," said the oneâ€"time ‘bad man.‘ "The responsibility .for crime lies at the door of the home." Use of Lash is Urged "Silent Bill" â€"scoffed at the plaint of Kingston convicts over the lack of cigarette papers. ‘"Why " he asserted, "there are prisons in the United States where it‘s too bad for a man if he‘s found with tobacco on him." "In the Canadian penitentiaires," he said, "you‘ve got the most wonderful institutions on the continent, bar none. You‘ve got penitentiaries to be proud of." "Silent Bill," who served 18 years of his life behind prison walls, advised his hearers to accept newspaper atâ€" tacks on Canada‘s prison system with several grains of salt, and he belittled such "exposes" as those of Dr. Withâ€" row, in The Toronto Globe. is that with the distorted ego that usâ€" ually distinguishes their class, they have only the desire to injure the offiâ€" clals of the prisons who kept them confined according to law. Last week Kirkland Lake Kiwanis were privileged to hear the prisons discussed by a man who has been a prisoner in several prisons and so knows what goes on inside, and yet who has now completeâ€" ly forsaken the idea of going contrary to the law and so may be taken as speaking without malice and prejudice. By having such addresses as that given the Kirkland Lake club (by "Silent Bill" Biddle, the Kiwanis assist materiâ€" ally in the spread of information and ideas. For the interest and informaâ€" tion of readers of The Advance the reâ€" port of Mr. Biddle‘s address as presentâ€" ed in The Northern News last week is presented herewith:â€" Qutbreaks in Prisons Here Due to Reds Canada‘s prison troubles are due to "Reds" and to the presence of such inâ€" mates as Tim Buck, Communist leader, the Kirkland Lake Kiwanis Club was told here Tuesday by "Silent Bill" Biddle, reformed U. S. outlaw, bandit | and bank robber. | With all the newspaper talk these days about conditions in the penitentiaries of Canada it is well to have the opinâ€" lion of a man who knows from the inâ€" side and yet is without prejudice or evil axe to grind. The trouble with the statements by exâ€"convicts generally Says Outbreaks in Prisons Due to Reds Former United States Outlaw Tells the Kirkland Lake Kiwanis that Canaâ€" dian Penitentiaries . are . Well Conducted.. Warns Against Newspaper Yarns. C Gaceqeqerqy 0006 Chief George Delves, of Cobalt, is seeking news of whereabouts of T.A. Roche, who lived for a short time in Cobalt in 1926 or 1927. He was not well known in Cobalt and no one there seems to know where he went or where he may be. It is believed, however, that he is somewhere in the North. He may be in Timmins or district. Anyone who knows where this Mr. Roche is located will be doing a genâ€" eral favour by communicating with Chief Delves. It appears that there is a considerable sum of money awaiting this gentleman by way of a legacy left him by a relative. If this paragraph should meet the eyes of Mr. Roche or anyone who knows his present whereâ€" abouts, the procedure would seem to be simple. This essay at least escapes any charge of dullness. I have suggested more than once the great number of schoolboy howlers which get into print suggests the exâ€" istence of an adult howlerâ€"factory somewhere. I am quite sure that the following "Schoolboy‘s Essay" which a reader sends me was not written by a schoolboy :â€" An Historical Decd of Chivalry "Sir Walter Rale‘gh, walking one day through the streets of Coventry, was surprised to see a naked lady riding upâ€" on a horse. He was about to turn away, when he recognized the rider as being none other than Queen Elizabeth. Quickly throwing off his richly â€"emâ€" broidered cloak he placed it reverently around her, saying as he did so, ‘Honi soit, qui mal y pense,‘ which meant Thy need is greater than mine.‘ Thereupon the Queen thanked Sir Walâ€" ter, saying ‘Dieu et momn droit,‘ meanâ€" ing ‘My God, and you‘re right!‘" SEEK FORMER COBALT MAN IN CONNECTION WITH LEGACY Someone is always trying to take the joy out of life. ‘There is a class of peoâ€" ple who will not leave alone even the harmless little fictions that are a comâ€" fort to so many. For instance, there is the idea "that schoolboys perpetrate lot of "breaks" at examination time and otherwise. Why shouldn‘t they? 'II they do, no cone is going to hold it aAgainst them, but on the contrary to Jlove them the more for inducing a litâ€" tle honest laughter. But, of course, there are the debunkers who keep unâ€" duly emphasizing the fact that the howlers are not made by the schoolâ€" boys, but by a regular factory. Of course, everybody knows that the proâ€" fessional humorist finds a comparativeâ€" ly easy field in making howlers. Nevertheless, some of the best of the howlers are actually made by schoolâ€" boys. Any school principal will attest the fact from experience. But in any case why not accept the gifts of the gods of humour without too much question? All of which is but an in« troduction to the following little article from John o‘ London‘s Weekly. The article is headed "A Howler," and reads as follows:â€" Suggests that Howlers are Made and Not Born Head Office _ Schumacher, Ont.

TIMMINS, ONTARIO, SEPTEMBER 7TH, 1933 The Stratford Beaconâ€"Herald:â€"Girls wearing beach pyjamas will be permitâ€" ted to enter Canterbury Cathedral One advantage is that when‘ they get well tucked away in a pew they are located where folk cannot see them. The company is capitalized at 3,â€" 000,000 shares, of which H. C. Crow advises, 1,020,000 have been issued. The present officers of the company are stated to be only provisional. Numerous veins are disclosed on surâ€" face at the property; encouraging asâ€" says are reported ‘from some 15 of these veins. The official report states, "the J. K. vein which gave spectacular values on the 160 foot level in the south shaft and was reported as a blind vein,. has now been picked up on surface; assays, from it ran $20.67, $8.27, and $744”" Vein: No. 26 is credited with highâ€"assays from a deep testpit, including a 200 pound sample. This property was formerly the old Hattie Gold Mine and considerable underground work was accomplished some years ago. Good values and a six feot width were previously reporâ€" ted from No. 1 vein on the 400 ft. leâ€" vel at the north shaft; this vein on surface has been traced for 700 ft. in length and widths very from three to five feet. The recent surface sampâ€" ling on this vein has returned assays ranging from $3.72 up to $51.71. Renewed surface activity on the property of Coulson Consolidated Gold Mines in the Painkiller Lake area of Northern Ontario has glven encouragâ€" ing results. Good assays have been reâ€" ported by officials and _ underground cperations are anticipated. WORK RESUMED ON CLAIMS IN PAINKILLER LAKE AREA pine Mobantre According to reports from Matheson last week a party of berry pickers in the patch at the foot of the mountain on the Porcupine road ran across. a family group of ten goodâ€"sized bears. Atleast the bears looked very big to the berry pickers. The bears were more taken by surprise apparently than were the astonished berry pickers. The bears scrampered Off on the double quick into the undergrowth. It is not likely that the berry pickers chased the fleeing bears very far. As one Matheâ€" son man phrased it, the bears ran away from the berry pickers, and vice versa. The High River Times remarks:â€""An hour of rain now would do more good in five minutes than a month of it would in a week at any other time." Figure it out, if you can. TEN BEARZ FRIGHTENED BY PARTY OF BERRY PICKERS The Northern News last week says: ‘"‘Thefts of copper wire from mining companies in Kirkland Lake are beâ€" lieved solved with the conviction of Sam Arguette, a local man, who drew down a 60â€"daysâ€"toâ€"two years reformaâ€" tory term as the plferer of about 150 pounds of wire from the Kirkland Lake Gold Mine. Some weeks ago Arguette was found guilty of an attempt to break and enter the Gambleâ€"Robinson warehouse here and on that occasion was placed on probation for two years. It was while he was on suspended senâ€" tence from this conviction that townâ€" ship police arrested him in the theft of the wire, It was a tattoo mark on Arguette‘s arm that proved his undoing. As related in court before Magistrate Atkinson, the testimony in the case revealed that two men were found in possession of the wire by A. James, a gatekeeper at the mine. The gateâ€" keeper deputed another man to stand guard over the men while he sent for the police, but the pair made a getâ€" away before the officers arrived and it was not until Constable Vincent A. Walker, traffic officer, located Arguette by means of the tattoo mark that one of the suspected men was taken into custody. The tattoo mark had preâ€". viously been noticed by the gatekeeper, and his description enabled the authorâ€" ities to pin the theft on Arguette. James related how he came upon the two men with the wire, and when he was talking to them they pleaded unâ€" employment and hunger as an excuse for taking the wire. The stolen maâ€" terial was identified by Albert E. Prangley, electrician at the Kirkland Lake Gold Mines, as the company‘s property who said that hundreds of pounds of it had been stolen. Arguette had sold more than 300 pounds of wire to a junk dealer, it was said, before his .. He claimed he found it on a dump. Arguette‘s defence in the presâ€" ent instance was that on July 29 a man named Newton and another man called Joe had asked lum to help move the wire." Tattoo Mark Helped to Convict Kirkland Man Mill Office Mattagami Heights Chatham â€"News:â€"The lucky man these days is the one who has been so busy looking after his business that he didn‘t know there was a stock crash until he read about it in the papers. "Harold Putman stipendiary magisâ€" trate for Truro, Nova Scotia, has a relic which he believes may recall the days of a million years or more ago. Going to the Salmon River for a flat stone, Robert Fielding found one suitâ€" able for a step to Mr. Putman‘s garage. On close examination it was found that enbedded in the rock was a petrified stick of wood. That the wood has been treated by human hands the exâ€" hibit gives every indication. Judging by the rock, which is said to have been brought from Wallace for a railway bridge at Truro the age is set at a million years or more and for the wood to become embedded in it showâ€" ed that the stick is at least a million years old,. Around Great Village are many fossils showing the movements of animals of the ages gone by, but the exhibit which Mr. Putman guards very closely is believed will show the methods and modes of prehistoric humans. Grooves at equal spaces aâ€" part that might have been made by man or machine are discernible and a sort of corrugation lengthwise, the humans. Grooves at equal spaces aâ€" part that might have been made by man or machine are discernible and a sort of corrugation lengthwise, the stick gave further evidence that the wood was used for some implement or weapon. A stone cutter will be enâ€" gaged to cut away a portion of the rock so that more of the petrified stick might be geen, The stick is at least three inches in diameter and more than ten inches long. The ends are not exposed and it might prove that it was a weapon or a tooll of some kind used in the prehistoric ages." A friend of The Advance last week handed in the following clipping from a Nova Scotia newspaper which he thought might be of interest to many readers and especially to the many whose former home was in Nova Seotia :â€" Carscallen Township discoveries will further stimulate interest in the gold possibilities west of Timmins. Recent results of development on the De Santis Gold Mines claims, two townships east of Carscallen, caused considerable stakâ€" ing and restaking of claims this sumâ€" mer. With gold commanding # 50 per cent. premium, new complexicn has been acquired by many old properties where previous examinations have reâ€" vealed mater.al of a grade too low to be commercially handled. In the light of the new prices for gold, however, many of "these properties may be found to have economic possibilities. Find Wooden Relic Million _ Years Old in Nova Scotia Beanlandâ€"Hurst Group Another interesting property in Carâ€" scallen Township is the Beanlandâ€"Hurst group, where discoveries of wire gold said to be unique in Canada, were made in 1925. Most of the work on these claims has been confined to a vein 0 quarts and calcite which cuts a sevenâ€" teenâ€"foot belt of iron formation. The property has been inactive for several vears. and calcite. Further details are exâ€" pected by the department within the next few days. Although removed from the limelight for some time, the Township of Carsâ€" callen is not altogether a stranger to gold discoveries, and has long been recâ€" ognized as a favourable field for prosâ€" pecting. The township lies south of and adjoining the Kamiscotia area, where frantic stakings occurred in 1926 and 1927 following the famous Jamieâ€" son leadâ€"zincâ€"copper diszcovery, now the property of the Hollinger Consolidated. Since 1910 the township has shared the overflow of prospectors west from Porâ€" cupine. First gold discoveries were reâ€" ported in the granites and along the contact of the granites with the keeâ€" watins. In 1922 James Hazelton formâ€" ed the Hazelton Porcupine Mines Limâ€" ited on a group of twenty claims in Carscallen and Denton Townships, and in 1925 considerable diamondâ€"drilling was done. Despite important widths, ranging from eight feet to fifteen feet, the values up to the present have not been sufficiently high to indicate ore nmossibilities. Ed. Loney, for some time a resident of the Porcupine camp, and since then keeping in close touch with mines and ’minlng in the camp, has an article of some interest in reference to the recent reports of a new gold find in Carscallen township, not far from Timmins. Reâ€" cently in Sudbury Ed, Loney has been publishing a special mining paper, which he has called "Loney‘s Mining Reports," and which carries much news and views. Writing last week aâ€" bout the Carscallen township strike, Ed. Loney says: Carscallen Gold Samples The Ontario Department of Mines has taken steps tto secure further details in regard tto the recent reâ€" ported discovery of gold in Carscallen Township _ Samples received by the department have aroused considerable interest, and, according to T.â€"~F. Suthâ€" erland, Acting Deputy Minister, are aâ€" mons the most promising that have reached the notice of the Government for some time.
