Every MONDAY and THURSDAY Ehe orrupine Atpance 122 Waterloo Road, attended To Instruct Town Solicitors to Make Revision of Byâ€"Laws A motion instructing the Town‘s Soliâ€" citars, Caldbick and Yates, to completeâ€" ly revise the byâ€"laws of the Town of Timmins was passed at a special meetâ€" ing of Council on Monday evening. The work is not to cost more than $1,000. "This has been suggested for years," said the Mayor. "The byâ€"laws are in very bad condition and I suggest that we are likely to save $1,000 by having the byâ€"laws modernized and brought upâ€"toâ€"date." Councillor Warren believed there should be a time limit put on the work. He wanted to be assured that it would be completed this year. "How." asked other members of Council, "could a time limit possibly ke put on such work? To begin with the barristers themselves did not know the extent of the work. Furthermore, negotiations and conferences with the Council would create delays. By not being able to meet the solicitors the Council itself would create delays. The tender of Elie Leblanc, for $550, for the collection of night soil, was acâ€" cepted. Councilior Gauthier was the objector in that case. He believed that because Leblanc was "a wealthy man," and because there had been complaints of his work, the opportunity should be given to someone else. Furthermore, his tender was not the lowest. On such problems, said Councillor McNeill, Chairman of the Board of Works, he was content to take the adâ€" vice of the engineering department. That department told him that the man whose tender was lower than Leâ€" blanc‘s was not able to look after the work and did not have the equipment. A byâ€"law prohibiting the depositing f sweepings and refuse on the street was passed,. The Mayor said that many merâ€" chants were in the habit of sweeping their stores out on to the street, wikely to Save $1,000 by Bringing Byâ€"Laws Up to Date, Say Mayor. All injured workmen will, in future, be instructed to report to Mr. McCoy at the Town workshop to receive first aid in the case of injury. The T. N. 0. Railway will be asked to allow the Town to put crossings on Ogzden Avenue, Montjoy Street and Wilcox Street.

Ridgegold Mines Starts Drilling Campaign Information given The Advance this week is to the effect that Ridgegold Porcupine Mines Ltd. with holdings in Deloro township just south of tue Naybob intered into a diamond drillâ€" ing contract last Saturday with the Ryan Diamond Drill Co.â€"to start an aggressive diamond drilling campaign on its seventeen patented claims in that section. This work will be uder the direction of J. Ss. Crosscombe, M. E., formerly with Quebec Gold Mining Corporation and Consolidated Smelters on exploraâ€" tion work in Northern Ontario and Quebec. The first holes will be put down to explore at depth width and extension of No. 1 vein on which the shaft is sunk to a depth of 125 feet, and from which good gold values were obtained, running up to $15.40 across six feet in the porphry. When this first drilling is completed it is intendâ€" ed to explore three other major veins and three minor veins exposed on the property. The large No. 5 vein will be given special attention at depth as a shallow hole put down on this vein some years ago showed a width of arâ€" ound 60 feet and it is now intended to drill this at depth. Owing to the disâ€" tance between the showings on the property, considerable drilling will be required to coâ€"relate the different exâ€" posures, and it is estimated that around 10.000 feet will be required this year. When drilling has been completed on the No. 1 vein it is the manageâ€" ment‘s intention to deepen the present shaft to around 500 feet, zind proceed with underground work to develop ore in that section. D‘Arcy D. Bogue, of Montreal, who successfully amalgamated the proâ€" perties which now comprise Paymour, Porcupine Mines, is president of Ridgeâ€" gold Porcupine Mines. He has been spending considerable time at the proâ€" perty lately in connection with the proposed new development. Board of Trustees Includâ€" es E. Rutherford, W. Hazâ€" elton, Charles Loughton. Published at Timmins, Ont.., Canada. Every MONDAY and THURSDAY Three charges of keeping liquor for sale and one of selling were scheduled for police court yesterday afternoon. One accused, Martin Drennan, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to two monthe in jail. Two, Peter Shalton and Mrs. Violet Jacklin, were remanded and the charge of selling against Astoro Stefâ€" fanelli, was dismised. In the latter case one Crown witness only was heard. When he denied all knowledge of the case and was desâ€" cribed by the Magistrate as "an adâ€" verse witness," Crown Attorney Caldâ€" bick asked that the charge be disâ€" missed. At the same time he instructed Provincial police to lay a charge of keeping liquor for sale. 4 Astoro Steffanelli is from Cook‘s Lake in Mountjoy Township. First witness called in the charge of selling was Leo Tremblay, of Timmins, who pleaded guilty to a charge of consuming in a public place and paid a fine of $25 and costs, Tremblay admitted going to Cook‘s Lake but said that the beer he tcok with him. He denied that he bought beer from Steffanelli. "We won‘t go any further in this charge," said the Crownâ€"Attorney. "This man and the other witness who was to be called, told police that they bought this beer from Steffanelli and it was on that basis that the charge of selling was laid. However, police have been keeping observation on this place for some time and I have instructed them to lay a charge of keeping liquor for sale." Martin Drennan pleaded guilty withâ€" out any demur and no evidence was taken. He was simply sentenced to serve two months‘ imprisonment. Four Second Offenders Usual alternative in the case of a convicted second offender against sobâ€" riety is a fine of $50 and costs or thirty days in jail. Four were offered the choice on Tuesday. They were Alcide Toulouse, Leo Robert, Albert Sassaville and Gordon Wallace. Alcide told ‘the sourt that he had only two bottles of beer that night but Sergeant Downey said that when the accused was brought into the police office, as one of four persons in the front seat of a car, the driver of which was icharged with reckless griving, he was drunk â€" so drunk that he ordsered him locked up. Eight others were convicted with drunkenness and given the usual option of a fiine of $10 and costs or 30 days in jail. Usually when a man is charged with drunkenness he enters a plea of guilty. One of those who contested on Tuesday was Charles Richards. Accordingly, evidence was taken. Police said that when they arrived at the Richards home, located in a lane between Pine and Spruce Streets, just back of Kimâ€" berly Avenue, Richards had just beaten up his wife. She was covered with blood. They told Richards to go back in the house after the wife refused to lay charges against her husband. He reâ€" fused and followed them to the car, He was very argumentative about the whole business so they put him in the car and took him to the station.
