To Soothe Two Car Accidents in the Last 24 Hours Balmy spring weather is believed to be the reason for the decrease in the number of arrests during the past few days. Police think that Spring with its healing effects has soothed to some extent the savage breasts of the more unruly citizens of Timmins. Chief of Police Leo Gagnon said to- day that there had been only a few municipal guests in the lock-up lately. He had hopes of emptying the place soon even for an hour. When there are no prisoners in the jail the heavy door is allowed to swing open as an outward symbol of the inner virtue of the municipality. However. despite the Chief's hopes six arrests were made last night. One man was arrested on a charge of dis- orderly conduct. He is alleged to have shouted and cursed in a local cafe. Three drunks were brought in and two vagrants. They all will appear in court on Tuesday. bed Impact on Back Road Early To-(lay. Two Boys Re- ported Struck Yesterday. However.
