The charge upon which Dawson was arrested was laid about October 1, and a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was apprehended in Windsor and brought back to Osh- awa on November 15 by a local con- stable. The next morning, when he appeared in Oshawa police court be- fore Magistrate Hind, he pleaded guilty to the charge and was remand- ed in custody at the request of the crown, until today. : Dawson has a wife and four chil- dren dependent on him, and it was stated by the crown this morning that he had left town without mak- any provision for them, and that at the time his wife and a baby were in the hospital. The bench express- ed the opinion that he had grossly neglected to care for his family, and when the crown attorney asked for the sentence of the court the magis- trate passed sentence of at least six months in the reformatory, with the additional two years less one day indeterminate term of imprisonment. Dawson also faces the possibility of the passing of sentence on the Galt charge on which he is now on sus- pended sentence. ea ------ "Sometimes you appear really man- ly, and sometimes you are absolutely effeminate.

G6--Charged with attempting to enter the store of Couch, Johnston, and Cryder- man at Bowmanville, on Wednes- day night, Nov. 9, Lorne Kenneth Wicks, 20-year-old youth of Strat- ford, was found guilty on Saturday morning by Judge E. C. S. Huycke, In Cobourg. The prisoner was re- manded until Thursday when sen- tence will be given after reports of the young man's previous con- duct have been given either by Counsel Thomas F.

C., of Cobourg. | William Daugherty, returned sol- | dier and former newspaperman, | , wes also found guilty by his honor, ol stealing a gold watch from A. Glover on November 4. Daugherty was also remanded . until more could be found out about his past record, The prisoner was acquitted on a charge of stealing a safety ra- zor and $67 from the complainant, Evidence which was adduced show- ed that both Glover and Daugher- ty had been drinking more than was wise on the night of the roh- bery took place. Police Constable Walter Hall, of Bowmanville, who arrested Wicks, was the principal witness called by the Crown in the case of Wicks, He told that when he first saw the accused he was coming out of Ja- cob's and that he went down to Di- vision, and turned to go down to (ueen Street, Mr. Hall said Wicks vas not alone, but that there were two other chaps with him. "When did you next see them?" asked Crown Attorney Kerr. "The three came out of Bag. nell"s, and went west to the corner of King and Queen, near the West End Garage. 1 followed them as far as the West End Garage and then I retraced my steps to the Bowman House Archway. "I met Richard McMullen there, who was on his way home, I said to him, "There's something doing here, and asked him to come around with me as there were three. "We went through the Bowman House yard, in through the back of Cole's barber shop, and I saw Wicks, just as I stepped out from the stable behind the barber shop. He was placing the screen against the bujlding, which he had taken out of the window. "As soon as he set down the screen, he and a chap who was with hinr at the window ran for the fence which was about 15 feet from the window. I called for them to stop and they did, and I told them to approach me, mean- while going towards th-m myself, "They came within feet of me, and then I handed Dick, whe was beside me, the revolver, with instructions to cover them while I handcuffed them. "As I passed the gun to Dick, Wicks shouted to what I thought was the third boy whom I had seen earlier. 'Shoot, Bill, Shoot. Get the , both of them!' Dick stepped baci | against the building so as not to he in line with the shot from the rear, and one chap bolted, "I grabbed Wicks and threw him around, and shouted to Dick to shoot, and he did, but the chap didn't stop, Wicks, when the chap bolted, gave me a tussle, and when my left leg went down into a post- hole which was uncovere?, he got I S---- yor Juno and I shouted to Dick to stop him. "I got my leg out in an instant and chased him, but Wicks took a six foot fence in a clean jump. Dick stopped him at the end of a lane- way with the gun, and held him until I came, when I took him to the jail," concluded Mr. Hall, Richard McMullen, called to the stand next, corroborated Constable Hall's evidence, and said he thought he had winged the second chap who bolted, He sald he saw him go lame. Fred Cryderman, member of the firm» where entry was tried, saa the screen was in the window when he left the store on Wednesday eve- ning. Mr. Cryderman was the last in the store on that day. Called in his own defense, accus- ed said he had met two chaps "Tom" and "Bill", at Cornwall and ------ that they nad got a truck ride into Bowmanville, where the other two said they lived. "What were you doing behind the stores?" asked Mi. Kerr. "They sald they lived back there." "Why did you take out the screen?" he was asked. "The other two asked me to do 80," answered Wicks. "Why?" "I don't know." The accused was then found guilty by His Honor, and remanded until Thursday for sentence. This is the third time that an entry has been tried to Couch, Cry- derman and Johnston's store. The other two times entry was effected, but the thieves were caught once. This is the second time a conviction has been entered. OR.
