Reid, Oxdrift, visited the Dryden stores on Wednesday after- noon = {serving a penitentiary sentence ® L] Supreme Court Sitting - JUDGE MATSEN, Presiding EER The Spring Assizes opened in the Court Fouge, Kenora, Tuesday after- noon at one o'clock. Mr Justice Matsen of the Suprere Court of Ontario pre- sided over the sittings. Two criminal cases which were des- cribed as extremely grave in character were submitted to the grand jury. The first was based upon the hitherto un- solved 'Tunnel Murder' Mystery of a little over three years ago. It will be recalled that the body of the victim, still warm, was found by section men lying about seventy-five yards beyond the western outlet of the tunnel, on tunnel island. At the time the murderers made ap- parently 'a clean get-away, carrying with them the money belt of their vie- tim, said to contain about $800 in cash, but leaving his watch and other trace- able property. : But few are the unsolved mysteries that becloud the history of Canadian criminal administration; and the blood- hounds of the law, unsleeping, unfor- getful, were already on the trail of the murderers. Bit by bit, little scraps of evidence were pieced together, until, at the end of three and a half years, dur- ing whi ich the suspected men were on another charge, the authorilies were ready as they left the prison gates, to confront them with the evidence to their misdeeds. Renn Examiner FROM PIT TO PREMIER The Union Church Adult Class study on Sunday morning is to be on 'J oseph' 'From Pit to .remier' would make a most apt title for a story on the life of this great Old Testament character. The special portion for Sunday is Gen. 45:3-15. It would pay us well to read Genesis from chapter 35 to the end of the book, 1 Are we to expect instructions from © always find people out? See Genesis 42:21, 3° "The spoiled child, the censorious tale-bearer, the callow conceited youth' "The ideal son, the ideal brother, the ideal administrator." Wm.
