Probe Order Into Keeping of Bears as Attractions Toronto, Nov. 2.â€"D. J. Taylor, deputy minister of game and fisheries, toâ€"day ordered an investiszation into the case of twoâ€"yearâ€"old Sonny White, who was terribly clawed and bitten by a bear at Larder Lake yesterday. The child approached the bear which was chainâ€" ed outside a service station and was mauled .by the animal, which nearly tore off the top of the child‘s head. Another bear was chained and., since the accident, both have been destroyed. Mr. Taylor explained that permils are required of persons who keep wild animals in captivity. He has instructâ€" ed his local game warden to discover whether a permit was taken out in this case. No charge is made for these permits but it permits game wardens to keep a check on animals held captive not only to determine whether conditions are humane but for the protection of the public against these animals. Numerous service stations on Northâ€" ern Ontario highways keep chained bears. At Swastika, five miles from Kirkland Lake, there are three such bears. and there is another at Swanâ€" sea, ten miles from Larder Lake. Danie! Worden, editor of the Northâ€" ermn News, at Kirkland Lake, has unâ€" dertaken a press campaign to restrict the bearâ€"keeping practice. Doherty Roadhouse Co.

R. Tucker, of the Juvenile Court at Cochrane on Monday of this week, he was convicted and sentenced to an indeterminate term at the inâ€" dustrial school. The train had over fifty passengers and had the engineer been less watchful and skilful there might have been an appalling tragedy. At the trial this week, Engineer Don McKinnon, of the Cochraneâ€"Quebec train, told on the stand of striking a pile of ties which might have derailed the locomotive. A halfâ€"mile farther on, he said, two poles were lying across the rails, while a few yards away a lamp from a yard limit sign was beâ€" tween the tracks. ' There was also police rvidence to establish the case against the boy. Sergeant Roy Elliott, of the Ontario Provincial Police, told the court the boy had confessed he rode his bicycle along the tracks shortly before the train came. The officer said the youth told him he had thrown the obstruction on the right of way, but would give no explanations for his action. The opinâ€" ion ventured by some who know the case is that the boy had been reading too many crime stories and wild west thrillers and had become warped in his judgment and opinions and generâ€" al attitude as a consequence. The obstructions were placed on the track some three miles east of Cochâ€" rane. Witnesses at the trial told of the boy lifting a heavy side platform and throwing it across the rail. This would be beyond Uis strength of the ordinary man ond indicates the unusuâ€" al muscular sti::n:xth of the boy. Forâ€" tunately the engineer noted the obâ€" New Store Opening to Public Toâ€"morrow ‘ochrane Lad of Fifteen Years Sent to Industrial School. The Timmins Workingman‘s Store Has Fine New Stocks 1n Attractive Preâ€" mlbex structions in time and was abic to stop the train before tragedy resulted. The latest addition to the business life of Timmins is the Timmins Workâ€" ingman‘s Store, Limited, who are openâ€" ng their modern and newly decorated and equipped store at 68 Third avenue, two doors west of Birch street. The wholse store has been completely reâ€" decorated and improved and is modâ€" ern and attractive in every respect. The stock of men‘s, ladies‘ and younger people‘s wear will make gencral apâ€" peal. The personnel of the new firm, whose official opening is tomorrow (Friday) is worthy of special note. Heading the firm is Mr. R. M. Pierce, recently of Montreal, but previously of Winnipeg. To imost people who have lived many years in the North, it will be siufficiâ€" nt introduction of Mr. R. M. Pierce, to state the fact that he is a brother of the late Charles Pisrcs, the first merchant in Timmins and for quarter f a century a popular and prominent business man of the North. Mr. R. M. Pierce, however, has recommendations in his own person. He has been eminâ€" successful in business for himâ€" selif in Montreal, Winnipeg and other sentres. For several years he was in partnership with his brother, the late Asher Pierce, of Montreal, who was well k‘nowu for his success no less than for his outstanding ability in business and industry. The president of the new Timmins company gave valuable serâ€" vice during the Great War, and in the. days of peace was noted for his pubâ€" lic spirit and effort in many good causes in both the East and the West. He won the rank of captain in the Canadian Army during the war, his work in the Winnipeg Light Infantry regiment being especially ncled in miliâ€" tary circles. The general manager of the Timâ€" mins Workingman‘s Store, Mr. P. Petchersky, has also an enviable reâ€" cord. Until a few weeks azso he was head of the purchasing department of Sam Bucovetsky, Limited, and in point of years of service, was the oldest member of the staff of that firm beâ€" ing with Mr. Bucovetsky since 1924. Previous to that he was connected with the Hollinger Stores. Mr. Petchersky has enjoyed the respect, confidence and friendship of the people of this part of the North in the twentyâ€"three years that he has been resident in this disâ€" trict. The official opsning of the new stori at 68 Third avenue, tomorrow, Friday will be an event of more than passing interest. For the occasion the stor has gathered a notable array of bi; values in men‘s weer, women‘s weal bovs* wrar and girls‘ wear.

EACH HELPS THE QOTHER THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Li Children at the Shelter Remembered at Hallowe‘en The youngsters at the Children‘s Aid Shelter have the notion that Hallowe‘en is pretty near as good as Christmas, or at least that some people are as kind at Hallowe‘en as they are at Christmas. The reason for all this is the fact that for Hollowe‘en the youngsters were reâ€" membered in a pleasant way by two friends of the children there. Ftom Mr. W. W. Oorr, Middleton ave. there came a large case of delicious grapes, and the youngsters say the case was certainly a big one and that i "And," says one youngster, "if iarge and "delicious" are proper to use about grapes you should use them again about the "pop" sent down to the shelter. Mr, Arnold Burrows sent down no less than five cases of soft drinks for the youngâ€" sters. There were lote of grapes to go round all the youngsters at the Shelter and there was slso enough "pop" for every child for several days, "delicious" means "good," or "nice" orf anything like that, then that‘s the way the grapes tasted. No wonder one C. A. S. youngster naively enquired:â€""Why can‘t they have Hallowe‘en or Christmas every week or so?"
