Louis Grenier, of Montreal, will apâ€" pear before Magistrate A‘tkinson in Kirkland Lake to day on charges of having counterfeit money totalling apâ€" proximately $3500 and of having dies and plates for the manufacture of the counterfeit money. Grenier was arrested by Timmins police in Kirkland Lake some time ago. He had been in Timmins and was tracâ€" ed from here to there. The arrest was made by. Corporal Kirk, of the local detachment of the RCM.P., and by Sergeant J. A. Stringer, of the Provinâ€" clal Police detachment stationed here. ‘After they had traced Grenier to Kirkland Lake, police from here went down there and made a raid on a Cerâ€" tain house in the town. A thorough search of the place disclosed a bundle of the bogus morey, dies and plates in the ashes of a stove. ECE â€"‘The dies and plates were nbt only for the manufacture of money but more particularly for raising the denominaâ€" tion of bills. It apparently was the practice to wash out the denomination of a bill with acid or by some other means and then replace the number "14" with "10" or "100." The bills all were American.

The new arrangement, scheduled for September 1 as starting date, will include also the closing of restaurants at Porquis Junction and Temagami, it is intimated. ‘"The T. N. 0. Railway owns three cafeâ€"parior cars, and one of these, the "Silverland," is being remodelled at considerable cost in the shops at North Bay for the resthurant car service to be provided on the ‘Torontoâ€"Timmins trains other than the "Northland", the reports state. This car will be equipâ€" ped with a counter and chairs instead rafra d of the tables at present in use. No change is contemplated so far as the ‘"‘Northland" is concerned in this reâ€" spect, and the cafeâ€"parlor car which operates between Timmins and Swasâ€" tika on these fast trains will continue as at present. "The restaurant car is an idea taken from other railways, it was indicated, and will be an extension of a service already in operation on some of the Rouyn branch trains, along the Nipisâ€" sing Central Railway. At present, the "Goldiand", cafe car on Nos. 46 and 47, and the "Pineland‘", attached to the ‘"Northland," are staffed each with steward, chef and two waiters, all men, but it is reported that a chef and girl waiters will comprise the crew of the restaurant car to replace the present arrangement. â€" The cafe cars, which also provide parlor car service, were originally named, respectively, "Sesiâ€" kinika," "Wasaksima" and "Tetapaga." "When the last change in the time schedules became effective some weeks ago, the ten minute stop previously provided at Temagami for both Nos. 46 and 47 was eliminated, but these trains have been making the stop on special instructions pending, it is said, the new arrangement going into Ooperâ€" ation.

There are four schools used as registering places, just as in the muniâ€" cipal elections, and there are a nuntoer of booths in each school.

John Bosak on Monday night at a Sudbury cafe poured four bullets into the body of ‘a seventeenâ€"yearâ€"old waitâ€" ess, Annie Haynazuk, and then in his haste to escape he tripped Oover the girl‘s body, striking his head on the sidewaik in such a way that he broke his own neck. He died on the way to the hospital. The girl is given a fair chance of recovery, though she is parâ€" tially paralyzed by the bullets, The girl scarcely knew the man and had never been frienrds with him, accordâ€" ing to information given the police. . To her, he was simply an occasional cusâ€" tomer at the cafe, but Monday night he asked her to go out with him and she refused and this appears to be the only excuse for the shooting, although some around the cafe had noticed Bosak and thought he was acting pecuâ€" liarly, not only Monday night, but on other previous occasions. .

(Wall Street Journal) As one by one European currencies disappear from the exchange market as a result of the German juggernaut‘s progress over the map, the dollar stands out like a lone mountain peak in a flat desert and once again, as 25 years ago, we discuss its prospects as "the world‘s international currency‘ after the war, replacing the pound sterling as the unit in which the world ‘will clear its trade. In one respect at least the dollar of today is better fitted for the task than was the dollar of those days; it is more firmly buttressed by gold than ever a currency was beâ€" fore. We have now nearly three times the total volume of our currency, bronze, nickel, silver and paper, in gold bullion in our vaults.
