Will Be Called Moosenee Indian Name to be Given Town ot i Moosonee is the name to be given Ontario's seaport on James Bay, according to an announce-} ment in the press _on Saturday, which states that the name has been decided on by the Prime Minister of Ontario and the T.& N. O. Railway Commission, foll- owing a conference at Toronto late in December. The name not new, as it has been in use by the Indians as a designation for the site for many years and the Anglican Church has adopted it for the northern diocese. Moose Harbor -had been is has now been discarded. Last week the members of the Commission spent two days in an inspection of the lines, going north to the terminal. On their return the announcement of the change in the name was made, together with information on plans for the proposed hotel and townsite and the question of wharves to take care of traffic on the Bay. It is stated that a hotel of the bungalow type will be er- ected, with from 10 to 20 bed- rooms, lounge, dining hall, kit- chens, etc., and that separate sleeping bungalows will be built as required. The hotel will be located at Hunter's Point, which extends out into the Moose River Chief Engineer S. B. Clement will consult a prominent town planning engineer in regard to the townsite and plans will be submitted to the Commsision later. It is intended to make the town a modern one with parks, schools, administrative buildings, etc. It is stated that a spring creek at the border of the town- site will provide a supply of wat- er for the town, probably by gravity, and the water is claimed -to be almost 100 per cent pure. The chief engineer was author- ized to take up the question of wharves with the Federal De- partment of Public Works, as it was felt that facilities of this na- ture would be required when the new town is established, which it is expected 'will be next June. John Solomon, an Indian of Chapleau, was sentenced to three months in jail after being con- victed of trapping wolves in the Chapleau game preserve. and| chosen as the} + name for the new town, but this Pleading Guilty Two Sentenced to Reformatory { Four Charges of Theft emg Terms to Local Men in | Last Week's Court . | } When they pleaded guilty to four charges of theft in police |court here on Friday last, M.| Millross, 26, and Everett Davis, 19, were sentenced by Magistrate Atkinson to-not less than -one year and not more than two years less one day, in the Ontario Re- formatory. When the plea of guilty was entered, Crown At- torney F. L. Smiley, K.C., said that six more ché against each would not be pressed. | Magistrate Atkinson character-| lized the offences as "deliberate |theft"" and pointed out that the | duration of their stay in the Re- | formatory would depend entirely upon themselves. Should they |come up again after their release |they need expect no mercy from the courts. Davis out on |suspended sentence on a charge Jof using another man's car with- out permission and had been fined for swearing in a public place, it was | was stated, while it was the first Jappearance for Millross. | There was a long list of articles | i |stated' to have been stolen by the returned |two, including automobile tools, | after]a woman's purse, a turkey and]in the Misericordia Hospital here, other articles. Wm. C. Inch, who appeared for Davis, asked for a |reformatory term, rather than a |penitentiary sentence, i |that he felt more sorry for the |youth's parents than for the de- |fendant himself. The Crown At- torney pointed out that the thefts had occurred over a_ period of time and asked for a sentence commensurate with the offences. | Another case of theft was |dealt with at the same sitting of \the court, when Fred Lafreniere, |24, and Victor Bush, 33, of Cane Township, pleaded guilty to the |theft of four ducks and a shirt \from Clarence Ball. In their jcases Crown Attorney Smiley |asked for a sentence that would }deter others from similar offenc- jes and protect the residents of |the district, as there had been jother crimes in that section. Sentences of two months at harc labor were imposed by the Mag- istrate on each of the accused. | St. Paul's Church Holds . |St. Paul's Church was held on Monday evening in the parish hall, with a good attendance of members of the congregation present. Rev. Canon Hincks pre- sided and the business transacted dealt with the affairs, of the |church during the past year and |the election of officers.

On Thursday afternoon last, Ed. Provost pick- | Shore Road as he was walking} jinto Haileybury from his home at} | Moore's Cove, which turned out to be a star nosed mole. Both Mr. Provost and the Haileybur- lian staff were at a loss to identi- \fy the animal, although all were Pet or less familiar with the }common variety of mole, but had |never seen one running at large jin the winter time. Later the an- imal was recognized as being of |the star nosed vdriety, consider- lably larger than the ordinary mole and with a very peculiar formation on its snout, from which it gets its name. It is believed that the rain which fell early last week and which held up sport at the skat- ing and curling rinks for a few days, drove the animal out of its home in the ground. It was placed in a box in the office of The Haileyburian, but was gone |the next morning, apparently having made its way out of the box and gone to ground in the Speaker reported the finding ofa similar mole in that town, and its size also puzzled the residents who saw it.
