He denied that he "threw the bottles of beer out of his car. He had not had a drink for two hours prior to the accident. $100 or Three Months A ‘bottle of gin in his pocket rather than in his legal residence was responsâ€" ible for the imposition of a fine of $100 and costs or three months on Frank Boudreau. Sergeant DesRoches said that Boudreau was picked up at the T N.O. station with the bottle of gin in his pocket. The seal was broken and some taken out of the bottle. Missions Being Held at St. Anthony‘s Church Here C. Courcal said that St, Aubin‘s car hit his while it was parked near a culâ€" vert. Damage amounted to over $100. Constable Munro testified that Courâ€" cal‘s car was parked at the side of the culvert close to the railing. The road was 34 feet wide at that point and there was room enough for three cars to pass, he said. The accused smelled of liquor and three bottles of beer were found nearby. Reckless Driver Fined Convicted of reckless driving, Philip St. Aubin was fined $25 dnd costs and had his driver‘s permit cancelled for a month. Magistrate Atkinson imposed the maximum finge $50 and costs, amounting in all to $63.75. Six of the 180 eggs were Grade A and the rest were Grade B. On another occasion of another fifteen dozen, also sold to the Dominion Store, two were sour and the rest under grade. The consumer was the one who paid. He paid for Grade A eggs and received Grade B. This company, said Mr. Kester, had previously been convicted on a similar charge. The boy‘s father corroborated the police evidence that his son was incorâ€" rigible. He admitted that he would be glad to see him sent to an institution. The Magistrate imposed a sentence of six months definite and nine months indefinite in the reformatory. Euzebe St. Cyrâ€"Still Is A charge of nonâ€"support against Euzebe St. Cyr, pronounced "yooâ€"zaâ€"beâ€" Esaâ€"sere", was withdrawn when the Crown came to the man‘s defence and told the court he still was. He was willâ€" ing to provide for his children if his wife would give him possession of them. His wife was living with other men and he would not contribute to her support. The Magistrate decided that it was no case for him to decide. The charge was withdrawn. | Company Pays Fine Burns and Company Limited, through a ~representative, pleaded ~gulilty"to a charge of selling ungraded eggs. Dean Kester. who was acting for the Domâ€"| inion government, said that the comâ€"| pany sold fifteen dozen eggs to the Dominion Stores as Grade A eggs. 1 The boy was a problem to his parâ€" ents, said Inspector Olson. They were not able to do anything with him. He steals cars to go for a ride. He intended to go to Kapuskasing in one of the automobiles he took over the weekâ€"end. Last summer he travelled as far south in other people‘s cars, without their consent. He used between thirty and forty cars between Timmins and Toâ€" ronteo. Lajeunesse said that he knew where it was and offered to bring it back. When he did so the doctor, weli pleased, sffered the boy a dollar as a reward. With his tongue in his cheek Lajeunâ€" esse took the money and went his way. On Tuesday he pleaded guilty to a charge of taking the doctotr‘s car. Evidence disclosed that Lajeunesse took Dr. MciInnis‘s car on Saturday, October 31. The next day he went to the police station and asked if a car had been stolen. Receiving a negative reply he went to Dr. MciIirnis and askâ€" ed him if his automobile had been taken. The doctor admitted that it had. l l .

Provincial Constable Strickland conâ€" ducted the investigation which arose out of Morisette‘s evidence the first time the case was heard. At that time Morisette said that he gave the woman a cheque for some beer he bought there. It did not cover the cost and there was a neighbour present the next morning when he told her he would give her the rest of the money. ~~Magistrate~Atkinson at the lastâ€"court session ordered the neighbour found. Constable Strickland said on Tuesday that he had located the man, who proved â€" to be J. ~B. Fournier. Fournier said that he never saw Morisâ€" ette ‘before. A search of the woman‘s house revealed no cheque. | The woman involved in the Morisâ€" ette charge gave her evidence at a preâ€" vious court session. She was crossâ€" examined on Tuesday by Dean Kester, Morisette‘s coursel. She did not send one of her children for help when Morisette was assaulting her "because I didn‘t want to bother the neighbours." She said that she did not immediately go to the police because she spoke no English. She did not know that there were French officers on the force or that the Chief Constable spoke French, she said. Two men were commiited for tHaâ€"im'I-‘hâ€"rough his counsel, Dean â€" Kester, before q judge and jury ‘by Magistrate Atkinson in police court on Tuesday.’ They were George Morisette, charged with rape, and John Beaudoin, who faces two charges of carnal knowledge of girls. under fourteen years of age and one charge of attempted carnal ‘Beaudoin elecied to be tried by a judge and jury rather than the magistrate. Consequently, only a preliminary hearâ€" ing was held on Tuesday. Dr. Joseph Kelly gave technical meâ€" dical evidence regarding the case.

Being a galâ€" lant swain he did so. During the course of their conversation she told him of a~im@en, who had hit her. When he was taking her home, who should they meet but the man in quesâ€" tion. The latter spoke a few words to the damsel and then turned and bangâ€" ed her companion on the jaw. Irked by the blow McPherson joined the battle. They were settling the argument by the oldest method known to man when Constable O‘Gorman hove on the scene. Siegal Pleads Guilty . Charged with receiving stolen goods Irwin Siegal pleaded guilty. Linked ‘"Were they fighting hard?" asked Magistrate Atkinson. "Well, there was blood flying," was the reply. McPherson and another man came out of a lane fighting, said Constable O‘Gorman. When he asked what the trouble was he was told "Oh, just a little domestic trouble." Fight Over Woman Arthur McPherson said he fought in selfâ€"defence when asked by the Magisâ€" trate how he pleaded to a charge of disâ€" crderly conduct. Eventual result was the imposition of a fine of $10 and costs. Dr. Joseph Kelly gave technical meâ€" dical evidence regarding the case. Askâ€" ed his opinion of Beaudoin‘s mental ability, he said that he felt it was deâ€" finitely subâ€"normal. He recommended that he be examined by a mental speâ€" cialist. The Tall Story Club contributes anâ€" other tale, this time dealing with a Scotchman named McShan, who kept a small hotel in a town in Arkansas, where, as is well known, fireflies attain great size and luminosity. McShan wanied an illuminated sign for his hostelry, but the cost always deterred him until he had a great idea. He painted the letters "Hotel De McShan" above his door with molasses, and at night the fireflies settled upon the sweet in great numbers, andâ€"there you are!â€"(From "Szotch", published by MacAndrew Melrose, Ltd..

Latest Scottish Version of the Newest Neon Signs Magistrate Atkinson granted the reâ€" mand in the Lbrash case and said that he would remand sentence in the Siegal charge as he wanted to hear the evidence before passing judgment. A week‘s remand was granted in the Labrash case.â€"Siegal pleaded guilty and his counsel asked for clemency on the grounds that his client had never been in trouble before; had made a clean breast of the incident to police and had made restitution. The Crown denied that restitution had been made. It is alleged by police that Labrash, a driver for the Kirkland Fruit Company, stole produce to the value of about $20 and delivered it to a plazce where Sieâ€" gal could pick it. up. charge against Siegal arose was Percy Labrash,. who faced a charge of theft.

Lowe, and the directors for their good work. troupe of thirtyâ€"five Scottish curlers which is tcuring Canada is exâ€" pected to arrive in Timmins on the morning of Saturday, February 19.

John Connolly, Wellâ€"Known Journalist, Speaks to More than 300 in Church of Nativity Parish Hall. Was in Air Raid in Toledo. _ "Terrific,‘ he says. Describes Destruction in Many Cities. LATEST ON THE SCOT _ A member of the Nationalist cabinet told him that Franco would be Regent of Spain within a year and that the monarchy would then be reâ€"established. Don Juan, son of Alphonso, would be recalled and the country governed by council of fifty representing differâ€" ent groups of industry. The picture of Toronto with only the walls of buildings on the main streets ~and avenues standing and these blackâ€" The same night, said Mr. Connolly, while he and his two Associated Press newspapermen were making their way out of the city over the tortuous hills around it, the car in which they were riding slipped over the edge of one of the hills and rolled down to the bottom No oneâ€"was hurt. The Nationalists were on one side ofâ€"Toledo and the Royalists on the other. Shells were going over the city continually. Obtaining permission to go to the ruins of the Alcazar, Mr. Conâ€" nolly was in the ruined fortress when it was shelled. Fifteen bombs were dropped on the ruins of the building while he and his companions were in the little chapel that served the heroic defenders. "I can‘t describe what it was like. It was terrific. The buildingy shook. I couldn‘t possibly put the sensation I felt into words." Madrid, in the speaker‘s opinion, would be easy for the Nationalists to destroy. They were, at the time he was there, right on the outskirts. Franco did not want‘to destroy the Spanish capital because he loved the city and wanted to make it his own headquarâ€" ters. From the foot of the hill leading into the city of Madrid, the metropolis lookâ€" ed peaceful enough with the sun shinâ€" ing on the red roofs of the houses. However, outside the city one had to step over shell craters to go up into a radio tower which was barricaded with sand bags. In Madrid, said the spsaker, they have changed the name of the Hotel English to the Hotel National. There was a great antipathy toward the Engâ€" lish both on the Nationalist and on the Communist sides of the lines. That came of sitting on the fence too long. Mr. Connolly told of his trip througn Spain. The people seemed contented and happy under Franco, he said. Prices were reasonable betause no war profitâ€" eering was allowed. Foreign investors felt safe in the country and said that there had been fewer strikes and laâ€" bour troubles than before the revoluâ€" tion. He covered 2,000 miles by car, said Mr. Connolly, and it cost him nothing. He visited Bujaclance and there saw the huge portable altar in the cathedral, which, the Nationalists say, they will take with them into Madrid to celeâ€" brate the first mass there. Asked if they liked the war, Italian scldiers, and there were plenty of them, said: "When I am fighting for my country as in Ethiopa and for my God 5 in Spain I am glad to fight." Italian soldiers were popular with the people, said Mr. Connolly. Reports that the people were terrorized by the Italian and German soldiers was pure propaâ€" ganda, plenty of which was being used} by both sides. | First visit was to the city of Irun where buildings were ruined all over. Huge office buildings had been dynaâ€" mited, he believed, by the Reds before they evacuated the city. He spoke to people who had been fo five days in the ruins of Guernica, sai Mr. Connolly. They said that Franco had bombed the city but not maliciousâ€" ly as was reported in the press here. Only one incendiary bomb was dropped by a Franco plane. His first crossing into Nationalist terâ€" ritory and the courtesy he received from officials, sad Mr. Connolly, was typcal of that shown him by the Spanish dur- ing his entire stay. After waiting ten days in France, said the lecturer, he hoodwinked the British consul into giving him permssion and finally favourable word came through from the Nationalist headquarters. Three permisions were necessary to visit Spain. They were from the English, French and Nationalist governments The French permission was easy to get when the English had been obtained but that of the Nationalist government was very difficult. He left, said Mr. Connolly, in April for England, went to Canada House and was shunted back to the British Passport office and from there back to Canada House to get "a strong letter of recommendation". It was necessary, said Mr. Connolly for Canada House to cable to Ottawa beforfe issuing such a letter permitting him to visit Spain. When a reply came to the cable some eight weeks later he was Jjust leaving Spain. Speaking to an audience of more than 300 people in the parish hall of the Church of the Nativity on Monday night, John Connolly, journalist, reâ€" counted his experience and impressions while travelling earlier this year in Naâ€" tionalist Spain. Mr. Connolly‘s address was under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus. 4 The city of Cordova was in a similar state. It had been bombed more than 200 times, as often as four times a day, and the ruin was indescribable. There were 40,000 Italians in Franco‘s Spain, said Mr. Connolly, They would probably obtain mining rights now held by England as their reward. Germany and Italy were vitally interested beâ€" cause they could not afford to see an extension of Soviet Russiz in Spain, Ened with smoke could describe Malaga. It had been estimated that 12,000 peoâ€" ple had been put to death in this city «of 350,000, while it was under the Red regime. P.O. Box 1059, Timmins, Ont.
