Hughes, of Trout Mills, lost his life on Saturday. Play- ing with five or six children. the little fellow was drowned in a foot of water near the Hughes' camp about six miles from Trout Mills. His playmates did not notice him disappear from slght. He Was taken from the water by his 18-year-old brother Donald, who had ”A tall frosty glass of clear amber, tinlding ice cubes, 2. v‘Mon slice. 0001 to lookAat SPECIAL SALE of - EATON’S POPULAR and truly delicious.

BOLOGNA For instance, there was a man there charged with multing another man. This second man was in court to give evidence, as was also his son. Both father and son had lovely black eyes as a result of the assault. though only the one charge was laid, When the accused was asked to plead guilty or not guilty, he replied that he sure had hit man. but it was in self- defence. a’giStrate suggested that in such a ’he had better plead not guilty so that the facts of the case might Winn. This was a good break for themccnsed man, for when the case came to trial neither the father nor 30;): would swear that the accused was the man that hit them. The black eyes they sported proved that some- bod-yhad hit them all right. As the witnesses could not bring themselves to say‘ that the accused man was the one “Where You Plan Your Meals as You ShOp” who Struck them, there was nothing to do but, dismiss the charge. Another case out of the usual run was that in connection with unpaid wages. To be accurate, it was four cases, not one.

" A woman who charged her husband with assault failed to appear but sent a. note saying she did not want to press the charge. The case was dismmed. Provincial Oincer Pretorius preferred a charge again» M. Drisroll for at~ tempted suicide. The provincial officer was sent for after Drisroll was report- ed to have jmnped from the bridge at Hoyle into the river. Had it not been for the prompt work of a couple or tire-rangers he would have been drown- ed. They rescued him from the wa- ter and gave him first aid. The police arrived and took Drisroll in charge. Later it was found that Dris¢oll had not been in the best condition for some days past and he was sent to the hos- pital for treatment. The case was ad- journed for ,9. week. A reckless driving charge laid by the provincial police was dismissed The accused said that his car got out of control and his foot slipped from the brake to the accelwator causing the car to take the ditch. A charge of indecent exposure brought a fine of $25.00 and costs. The accused said he had no thought of breaking the law but had simply gone behind some bushes near the tourist camp to enjoy a sun bath. He said that he did not think that anyone would see him. Two little girls saw the man, however, and when this was known the police were called. While it is quite probable that the man's story is correct and that he meant no harm and thought he was out of public sight, at the same time it is necessary to protect the public at Gillies Lake. The tourist camp is being conducted very well and all should assist in keep- ing it a place where all the public, children and women particularly, may enjoy without annoyance or offence. A motorist, who was unable to pro- duce his license when required by the town police was fined $1.00 a costs to remind him that the law requires him to carry his license with him. He had the license all right, but he was driv- ing the motor and the license was at home. V A charge of 'reckless driving brought $10.00 and costs, while two speeders paid $10.00 and costs each and another man accused of speeding was remand- ed for a week. A case of defective brakes was re- manded to next week. For failing to stop at an intersec- tion one man paid $2.00 and costs. Three common drunks were assess- ed $10.00 and costs, while a second offender in this line was fined $50.00 and costs, which makes an expensive Sun-Ray Gold Acquires the McEnaney Property A remand of a week was given in a case where a. wife charged faiLure to provide for her by her husband. A young man, Gaston Goulet, was charged with having liquor not on permit; the" liquor being {It-"the Inter- national hotel. conducted by his father. As there was some doubt as to the ac- tual ownership of the liquor the case was remanded and other charges may be laid. The McEnaney Mines, otherwise known as the old Hollinger Reserve, has been acquired under option by the Sun Ray Gold Syndicate, according to an announcement made by E. G. Black, treasurer for the syndicate. The firoperty consists of seven claims six of which are patented. 'Ilo date, three thousand feet 01‘ work has been done underground on the 100, 200 and 300-foot levels. It is claimed that 40,000 tons of ore with an average assay of $14 per ton has been blocked out in one chute. In addition a winze from the 300 foot level has been extended 190 feet in which it is claimed that the winze is in vein all the way and in places, the vein is wider than the winze. Free gold is showing in several places in .the winze. Six hundred channel samples have been taken on the underground de- velopment with very few blanks. Re- ported channel sampling resulted as follows: Eight wall channels over 40 feet averaged $171.74 on the 100-foot level. 15 wall channels over 60 feet averaged $27.88 on the ZOO-foot level; 20 wall channels over 108 feet averaged $22.05 on the 300-foot horizon. It is the announced intention .of the syndicate management to form a hold- ing company to operate a number of developments. A company is to be formed -'for McEnaney Mines, control- ling interest to be retained by Sun Ray Syndicate. â€" _ I. 7‘7‘1 -â€"Jâ€"â€"_-â€"- - The engineering staff of the syndi~ cate is now on the newly acquired pro- perty‘ making further examinations.

McQuesen is not saying whether he has uncovered anything of a questionable naturé. “'It is an economy measure. We are investigating to see what work is “In the meantime, the order to stop construction work on public buildings is fairly general, the only ones ex- cepted being the new employment omce on Lombard St...

Work Involves $2,000,000 “The ope-rations stopped total about $2,000,000 worth of work, while work stopped on the highways amounts to about $18,000 a day. In all, about 10,- 000 men were employed on these jobs. “Hon. Mr. McQuesten gives the fol- lowing list of works affected: London, ZOO-bed dormitory at the Ontario hos- pital, $250,000; Woodstock, nurses’ re- sidence, $125,000; Hamilum, Ontario hospital, nurses' residence, omcially estimated at $160,000, but announced during the campaign as $275,000; Mi- nurses' home, $600,000; Brockville, boiler house of Ontario hospital, $80,- 000; Smith’s Falls, «too-bed mental hos- pital unit, $600,000. “Road foremen have beeh called off the jobs with their men. “When we have thoroughly investigated the work, we shall say what jobs are to be gone ahead with and. what jobs stopped." the minister stated.

He was particularly impressed with the beauty of the grounds at St. Mary’s hospital. “The care taken of the grounds, the flowers, the shrubs. the plants, do great credit,” he said, “ to the Sisters and to all other concerned.” This is all very true, but it might be added that the public could assist in keeping the hosâ€" pital grounds looking their best by re.- fraining from scattering papers be.- tween the sidewalk and the fence. This practce may be due simply to thoughtlessness. People coming from $200190: $2001931 $375313 $4753.22 $42553; $67553? $7751933 the post office. for instance, take occa- sion to throw away plain and fancy circulars. The effect does not help the appearance of the grounds. One day last week this practice madegvthe strip of ground between the hospital fence and sidewalk very unsightly until. it was cleared away. This imposition should not be placed on 8the hospital. St. Mary’s hospital ground are giving hundreds of people pleasure and a little thoughtfulness would show ap- preciation and coâ€"operation. The visitor here was «enthusiastic about the way that people on so many streets helped beautify the town by lawns, flowers and gardens. “I sup- pose," he said, “you have no real North Land flowers. which gives you so much keener in‘tersst.” It Was pointed out to the visitor that he was wrong about any lack of beautiful flowers in this North Land. In fur- ther proof of what was said about the flowers of the North, the following edi- torial from The Advance ten years ago is quoted herewith. It still holds true, thought it may be necessary in some directions to go a mile or two further afield than when this editorial headed the same as this article was written. Here is the editorial: “Last year Mr. A. Anson brought to The Advance office a sample of an odd plant that he found while on a pros- pecting trip. Two lady readers oi“ The Advance recognized the plant from the description given, as belonging to the Pitcher Plant family and being of the species “Sarracenia.” One of the ladies brought in further and better specimens of the Sarracenia and gave interesting details as to the history and character of/the plant. While the Sarrasenia was attractive enough in appearance its chief interest lay in the ifact that it was one of the insecti- évorous type of plants. In other words, it might be termed a "flyâ€"catcher.” It had cup-like leaves that open and con- tract and prove often the death chamber for insects. the plant drawing nourishment from the bodies of the little creatures so caught in the natural traps. A few days ago the same lady, who takes a deep interest in botanical matters, was ki‘ndtnough to favour The Advance withiurther specimens of the Sarraeenia, this time in the glory of their summer beauty. The plants have a tropical type of beauty, with striking colouring, the leaves shading from dark, deep red to a delicate pale green. The specimens were found north of the Whelpdale property, in the swampy section of ground there. There, also. was found a handsome specimen of the orchid family.
