THE HAILEYBURIAN THURS., NOVEMBER 3, 1932 @ce :_ : COMMUNITY NEWS : ercccee cigaret, or A dropped by Fire Chief Stinson to by R. B. Holmes, mail carrier, for storage for his rig. While little damage was done, it was neces- sary to turn on one line of water. A telephone message from Ernie Harris gave the alarm first, and then box 24 was pulled. Herbert Sootheran, the Niaga- ra Falls man who went to jail for three months after pleading guil- ty to a charge laid under the L.C. \., and after provincial police had arrested him when he had 126 gallons of alcohol in his coupe, was released last week from the district jail, but was promptly arrested by Corporal Harold Nel- son, of the Cochrane post of the R.C.M.P., and charged under the Excise Act, this count arising out of the same incident. He pleaded cuilty and was given the mini- mum sentence by Magistrate At- kinson, $200 and costs, or Six months, and one month.

The girls vWyho undertook the task carried on in a snow- storm that was most persistent throughout the day, and they stuck to their posts gallantly. In the circumstances, the returns are considered remarkably good. In the afternoon, the girls who did! the tagging were entertained to tea at the Fraser House, the ex- penses of this function being borne generously by the Misses D. McMillan, E. Cain and R. Fel- lows. To bring before the public some idea of the work being done by the Order, a display was given in the window of one of the local restaurants. No American citizens residing in Cobalt camp are likely to go back to the United States this time to vote in next Tuesday's presidential election, one of them said early this week. In other years, some of them have taken the trouble to register and have to their former homes to gone heir ball ; heen et. ald at first maintained he had EASA SSE TE Hols Uae Ne Si been driving, the police said, but er's informant said that, in Penn- sylvania, his home state, the vote he would cast would make no difference in view of what he re- garded as a foregone conclusion --a victory for President Hoover in that State. Under United States law, citizens of that country re- tain their citizenship despite "temporary" absences extending ovér years, but they must regis- ter in the usual way before an election is held, this man said. The regular changes in the T. & N.O. timetables are scheduled to become operative on Novem- ber 15th, which will be a Tues- day, and gossip in railway circles is that some regard for ancient superstitions had its part in selecting the date chosen, as the alterations ordinarily go into effect on a Sunday. This year the 13th would have been the oc- casion had usual practice been followed, it is stated. Advance notices indicate that the Mooso- nee trains will be withdrawn on their present basis of a tri-week- ly service, and that one train each way will be overated be- tween Cochrane and James Bay each week. Between Cochrane and North Bay, these trains will revert to their former schedule of running north and south on alternate days, instead of both being operated three days every boys; playing with matches, is believed|closing game of the Temiskam- ; have: ing inter-scholastic rugby league been responsible for a small fire: series had to be cancelled at Co- last Thursday night in a shed at; balt on Saturday, due to unfav- the rear of the former bottling: orable weather conditions.

The-game would have , had no bearing on the league i standing, which had been won by New Liskeard, with Kirkland Lake in second place and the win- less Cobalters bringing up the rear. New Liskeard won four games and Kirkland had one win and two losses. Norman Hewitt, Harley town- ship youth, was given suspended sentence and required to sign a bond to keep the peace for two years, when he appeared in Hail-+ eybury police court last Friday and pleaded guilty before Magis- trate Atkinson charge of breaking in with intent to com- mit an indictable offence. The costs were $21.70, which accused had to pay. It was alleged that Hewitt had gone into the garage of Thomas Cragg, a neighbor, to a night, for the purpose of taking gasoline out of Cragg's car and siphoning it into a five-gallon can While doing sa. he 1 his cig: 116 Cragg came into the garage in the morning he found a serious fire had been narrowly averted.

He also ad- mitted an offence under the L.C. A., and on this count was fined $100 and costs. A companion, James Donald of Owen Sound, paid $25 and costs for consuming liquor illegally. The two men, with a New Liskeard woman, were in a coupe owned by Don- ald and driven by Green, and which sideswiped a truck from Exeter about 11 p.m. on October 26. Chief Delves, investigating found a jar of wine under the truck, which was loaded with produce and parked at the time, and enquiry established that this was the property of Green. Don- later Green was named in this connection. The woman disap- peared, but was located and sent home. The coupe was badly damaged, but the truck escaped serious damage.

Mr. Norris admit- ted engaging the car, but there was a conflict of opinion regard- ing arrangements for paying for it. Arthur Brown, the driver, swore the deal was a cash trans- action, and that Mrs. Norris, on her return, had said it was too late to get to the bank then, but that she would get the money the following day, and _ Provincial Constable R. O. Stromberg told of going to the Norris home and being informed that when tardy customers paid for wood bought, the bill would be paid. On the other hand, accused declared there had been an arrangement with Brown whereby the latter dollars" if a Mrs. McEwen went with Mrs. Norris. She did, the evidence revealed, also Joseph Cole, a brother of. defendant, but Brown denied the suggestion he had promised to contribute any- thing toward the cost.
