J. Hearn in the county> criminal eourt ‘at Kitchener on" Monday, MacNeil wasâ€" sentenced ~to ~three months . in <the county Jail. Judge Hearn, in his summary of the case, alluded to the negléct of a senior official of the bank, Frank Leigh, acting accountant, to lock the safe inside the big. vault in the afterâ€" noon and to the fact that MacNeil was not strong, either physically or mentally, . owing to .the circumâ€" stances at the time of his birth and the â€"mo tervals _Smail â€" Saiaries "L could never understand why banks pay such small wages to their employées compared to young men in other walks of life. Here was a young man drawing only $650 a years and the evidence shows tRat he had to write home for money quite frequently, although he was not in debt. The banks expects its employees to mingle with good famâ€" ilies and go out to social events and yet it pays such a small salary even to some of the senior employees," the judge remarked. Said Crown Attorney Bowlby: "I am not asking you to impose «a heavy sentence, but I am asking that you do not view the matter lightly. It was a breach of trust. The other day we had a letter carrier charged with the theft of $4 from a letter. He was given three years in the péenitentiary. The law stipulated that he could not be given less. As I have said, however, I am not suggesting that you give a heavy sentence, but I am as#ing you not to view the matter lightly." That no credit is due to the banks for maintaining the honesty of its employees was the statement of the counsel for the prisoner, D. G. Mcâ€" Intosh. Their honesty is due to the young men themselves. The bank, with the small wages paid, does not belp to maintain that honesty. In this instance the evidence shows tnat the accused, in a moment of weakness, gave way to impulsiveâ€" ness characteristic of his race. The crime was not premeditated, as the whol evidence shows. Young Macâ€" Neil, it is evident, had no plans whatever for the future after he committed this theft." Opening the hearing Judge Hearn expressed a desire to hear the story from.the prisoner, as he had pleaded, guilty and had not had an opporâ€" tunity to tell his story. . To this Counsel Mcintosh for the prisoners acquiesced. â€" MacNeil, on being sworn, told his story: "I was borfi in Acrola, Sask., on July 19, 1906,".he told the court. "I entered the service of the ‘bank after completing my education in the high school." . While he was in Galt he occupied 2 room in the staff quarters of the bank and got his board at a private boardiffg house on Grandview Ave. His position in the bank was that of current ledger keeper, for which he was paid a salary of $650 per year. â€"On the night of September 28, the ‘ night he stole the money, he left the bank at 6.15, p.m. for supper and returned to finish some work he had left undone at about 7 p.m. He claimed that, although it was conâ€" trary to the rules of the bank, he had the combination of both vault door and the inner safe. It took the prisoner about half an hour to finish the work and closing the vault and safe doors and left the bank for a walk uptown. He went to a tobacco store, where he met an acquaintance and was in his company for an hour or two, when he returned to the bank. . Desire to Steal p Being further questioned by his counsel he stated that on returning to the bank he felt that everything was not all right and he went into the banking room and, opening the vault, found that the tellet‘s steel box was still open and it was then he got his desire to steal. He thereâ€" upon lifted the box out of the vault andâ€" took it .down to the basement and removed all the bills of money, but left the currency. He took , the teller‘s ,box upstairs to the vauit, und, securing the office club bag, _" _ a packed all the Bille into it. |====-M‘ "Than I took the second teller‘s the street, and left for the ~npot cath ‘box to the basement and ro Wwhore I secteted tha money, which moved the bills," he said.

BACON HOG FAIR WAS A ~â€" BIG SUCCESS Exceleint Grade of gn Exâ€" hibited; Valuable ormaâ€" tion Givenâ€"to Farmers of Waterioo County. The second annual bgcon hog fair of Waterloo County was held in Kitchener on Thursday last unâ€" der the auspices of the Live Stock Branch of the Dominion Government and of â€"the Provincial Dept. of Agriâ€" culture, and was againâ€" well attendâ€" ed. Although there was a decreased number of exhibitors as compared with last year, the stock was of a high grade character. Much valuable information was imparted on the type of hog demanded by the marâ€" ket and the desirability of raising these which would find ready buyers at profitable prices. During the fair those who were present were shown through the modern and extensive plant of J. M. Schneidér & Sons, Ltd., where the fair was again held. The committees in charge of the fair were as follows: finance, G. W. Foster, E. I. McLoughry, district representative of the department of agriculture, Irvin Gimbel and J. S. Knapp; live stock committee, J. A. Hagedorn, A. Foulder, R. G. Bailey and ~M. Snyder; committee of manâ€" agemert, L. W. Pearsall, Dominion Live Stock Branth, I B. Martin, Provincial Department of Agriculâ€" ture, G. W. Foster, Dominion Live Stock Branch, theâ€" official hog grader of the district, and E. I. Mcâ€" Loughry. Kinsey, With Two Blmira ERITISH AIRMAN FLIES A DISTANCE OF 28,000 MILES Ending a flight of 28,000 miles to Australia and back, Alan cobhm.< the British airman, arrived _ back in London recently and all London turned out to welcome the flyer kome. He flew low past the Houses of Parliament and as far along the river as Hammersmith. Returning to Woestminister he alighted on the river right at the terrace of the Houseq of Parliament, where the British Air Minister and other eminâ€" ent admirers were waiting to greet him. ‘‘This flight has not been a ‘stunt‘ but an effort to show the possibility 0* empire air routes, to discover the best methods of running future air routes and at the same time to deâ€" monstrate the practicability of flyâ€" ing." Cobham declared. The flight has been financed by Sir Charles Wakefield, one of Lonâ€" don‘s merchant princes. . Cobham‘s Britighâ€"made engine did the journey of $8,000 miles without ever giving trowble. It was the same engine with which he went from l.cndon_ to Cape Town and back. B m 2 4d R. i. Brackin, K.C., ML.A. for West Kent, and prominent border barrister, died at Windsor October 11ith. He was stricken suddenly at the Prince Rdward Hotel with an attack of apoplety. He dropped to tha floor unconsclous and never reâ€" covered. Escape from Death. DIES SUDDENLY In ultimately accepting the resig nation of Rtâ€" Hon. Arthur Meighen and passing A resolution : favorable to ‘aâ€"national comvention the conâ€" ference of Conservative exâ€"ministers, senstors, membersâ€"élect and defeatâ€" ed candidates on‘ Monday ran thue to the form of forecasts,.although at. one time it looked as though Mr./ MÂ¥ighen‘s retirement would be held , in abeyance till the convention. The | selection ‘of Hon. Hugh Guthric as temporary â€" House leader ~oft~ the party was an exemplification of the "Aark horse" winning out â€" Kight â€" names went to a ballotâ€"Sir George Periey, Hon. H. H. Stevens, Hon. P. D.. Bennett,° Hon. Hugh Guthrie, Hon. Dr. Manion, C. W. Bell, K.G., Hon. 8. F. Tolmie and C. H. Cahan, K.C. It soon narrowed down . to three, Messrs. Guthrie, Stevens and Manion, and Guthrie wor out with a clearâ€"majority, the choice. later beâ€" Ing made unanimous. ‘Hon. DoGald Sutherland of South . Oxford, ~preâ€" In a brief statement afterwards, Mr. Guthrie said that he had been asked to "fll the gap" and had conâ€" sented ‘to do so. He realized, he said, that there were several people who might have made a more satisâ€" factory leader. He had not anticiâ€" pated the call, but was willing to undertake the task since his conâ€" freres wished him to. Brief speeches were made by several prominent Conservatives from different parts of the Dominion, pledging coâ€"operaâ€" tion with Mr. Guthrie in the work of the session, and the meeting broke up with cheers. A Burprise Mr. Guthrie‘s choice as House leader was a surprise to some. His name has never been mentioned till the final day. A certain group put him forward, not as a temporary leader, but one who might well be chosen at a convention. His choice for the House leadership by no means excludes the possibility of his beimg confirmed in the leaderâ€" ship by a national convention if such is held, assuming that meanwhile his performance is creditable. Mr. Guthrie, who is 60 years of ‘ age, has been in Parliament for 38‘ years, entering it in 1900. He is a bandsome man, who looks the part of a leader and that counts considerâ€" ably. He is also a fine debater, thorâ€" cughly schooled in parliamentary usage and one who can speak very forcibly even if his utterance is not as caustic as sometimes has been heard. He used to be a Liberal: in fact, was in the Liberal party all the time from 1900 to 1917, when he became aunionist and was the first of the Liberal party to accept office in the union ministry. When Guthrie, like several others of Libâ€" eral antecedents, elected to stay the union went into liquidation Mr. with the Conservative party. With Mr. Meighen definitely stepping down, they have now chosen him @s parliamentary leader. 27 Â¥ P Amns" for Mr. Guthrie‘s temporary leader-' ship may involve his confirmation in the position without a conventlon.‘ If one is held there seems no reaâ€" son why he nl}onld not be a comâ€" manding figure likely to enlist the indorsation of those who comprise the assembly of Conservative forces. If Mr. Guthrie makes good in the Howse, as he is considered capable ct doing, the opinion of many memâ€" bers is that he will get the convenâ€" tion and the parliamentary party therte will be a paramount influence. LIFE AND PROPERTY ARE SAFE IN MEXICO Alver R. Dobkon of Mexico City, President of the American Book and Publishing Company, is visiting Simcoe, his former home town. Inâ€" terviewed with respect to conditions in Mexico, he stated that President Calles has been Observing statutes long past placed on the books, which Diaz and other former présidents had not the temerity to enforce. The President‘s slogan is "Mexico~ for Mexicans." $ Mexico was fiot in the throes of cur« and a place to be avoided, he said.
