The first of the criminal cases listed is that of Charles Chow, of Kirkland Paks, charged with as- sault on W. " Nicholson. This is not likely mS be heard, as the accused is said to be out of the country. W. B. Nicholson, charged with theft of the proceeds of the sale of steamship and railway tickets, will come up for trial. The accus- ed was tried here last December, when the jury disagreed. Nichol- son is the victim of the assault charged against Chow. Norman Bell, of North Cobalt, will face a charge of wilful dam- age to property. He is accused of allowing the cellar of a house belonging to A. J. McRae to be- come filled with water from a cistern while the drain was block- ed. Mrs. Teressa Brazonni, the Kirkland Lake woman accused last fall of performing an illegal operation, will be tried on the charge, and the fifth case is that of Kosten Moldowan, who was arrested last week at Kirkland Lake following the explosion of a quantity of dynamite under the home of F. Spotei there. The first of the non-jury cases is a claim by the Oliver Blais Co. against Mrs. N. Budarick for re- pairs to a motor car. In the sec- ond action Thos. Barasky, of Bucke Township, is suing Benja- min Goldstein, of Charlton, for $367.60, alleged to be due as a balance of wages. There is a counter claim of $400 entered as damages for alleged assault, the defendant claiming that he was unable to work for four months as a result. H. C. Dunbar has an action a- gainst the P. Payette Co., of Pen- etang claiming $348 as a payment made on a lurnber power pointer, with $66.20 for freight and dam- ages to the amount of $3,291.80 for loss of time, \etc., through the alleged failure of 'the boat to tow logs to the mill as guaranteed. The defendant company has a counter claim for $1,191.18 as the balance of purchase price, ex- penses in connection with the re- placement of the engine and tra- velling expenses. It is claimed that the engine was not handled right and that this caused the trouble met with in the operation of the boat. fas ATEED at SES Friends of Mrs. Jerry Abrams received word yesterday that she has recently undergone a_ yery serious operation at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, and is getting along as well as could be expected.

Six Acres Burned in Small Forest Fire A small forest fire near Gow- ard on Saturday last was respon- sible for the burning over of an area estimated at six acres, be- fore it was finally overcome at the edge of a swamp. It is not known just how the blaze started but it was caught before it had gained great headway. Train, snow and cold weather since that time has pretty well made the forests safe for the time in this vicinity and it appears that the greatest of the spring danger is now past. 2 For FERGUSON AVE.

J. Bowl affa and Wm. Holley, of North Bay, members of the Ontario -Forestry Department, were in Haileybury- early this week on their way to McLaren's Bay, where their headquarters will be established for the sum- mer. A new gasoline boat, which will be used for patrolling during their operations, was launched here, fitted up with an engine and driven down the lake tot he scene of the camp. The Forestry men had some- thing of an adventure during their stay in town. In addition to the gasoline boat they had a canoe along, which they placed on the float at the foot of Broad- way Street between the wharf and the market building while they were fitting up the larger craft. The day was exceptional- ly cold and two men went up to the Matabanick Hotel 'to get warmed up a bit and, happening to look out of the window, they saw their canoe rolling off the float into the lake. The wind had been responsible for its launch- ing and was so strong that the light craft was wafted out well beyond reach before they could reach the shore. It went down the lake at such a rate that by the time a motor boat'was secured a trip of some three miles was ne- cessary to catch the runaway. Messrs. Bowland and _ Holley left for McLaren's Bay on Tues- day.

Sends Seeds of Norway Maple to Plantin North Ottawa Friend Believes Species Wiill Thrive Here and Tests to be Made earlier, so Mrs. C. E. Living, of Ottawa, has very kindly sent to the editor of The Haileyburian a parcel con- taining a good supply of seed of the Norw ay maple, a tree that grows profusely in the Ottawa Valley and one that is extremely hardy. Mrs. Living suggests that these seeds might. be planted in Northern Ontario, either in waste spaces or in gardens where they should in time make good shade trees. As there is a fairly large sup- ply of the seed, if there is anyone who wishes to make the experi- ment of introducing the Norway maple into Haileybury, we will be glad to divide it up. It would be more satisfactory, perhaps, if the seeds were planted in differ- ent kinds of soil, in order that the best results may be obtained. The Haileyburian wishes to extend thanks to Mrs. Living for her kindly interest in the North Country. She has been a visitor here on one or two occasions and has several friends among local people. oe Dr. and Mrs. C* W. Haentschel left yesterday on a trip to Europe during which they will witness the production of the Passion Play at Oberammergau. 1.30 GOD SAVE LIBERAL CONVENTION WILL BE HELD AT THE TOWN OF NEW LISKEARD Sat, May 31, 1930 "PROMINENT SPEAKERS WILL BE PRESENT p.m. | THE KING | Goes to Conference J.
