Held Annual Meeting Indian Entertainer Died at Vancouver Frances Nickawa, the well known Indian girl elocutionist, died in Van- I couver on New Years Eve. She ' gave a concert here six years ago and was very highly thought of. I She was about thirty years of age when she died. Her husband, Ar- thur Mai-k, was in Calgary at the time. He was making his home here and intended bringing his wife to Calgary in the spring. He re- turned to Vancouver to attend the funeral of his Indian bride. Miss Hannah Riley adopted the little Indian girl, when she was act- ing as seamstress at Norway House Indian home. She remained there eight years, moving to Vancouver where Frances Nickawa received all her education. She studied elocu- tion. Making elocution Ksr \xt^ work, she amazed Vancouver audiences with her ability. She gave many concerts in Vancouver and other western points. She spoke several times in Central United Church, Cal- gary. She conducted a successful tour of Australia and had been in England twice, where her recitations were greatly enjoyed. With headquarters in Toronto, she made a tour of eastern Canada, spending some time there. At the time of her death she was living with Miss Riley, in her home at Vancouver. While in Fleshorton she and Miss Riley were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Thurston. Durham Won Opener The local intermediates journeyed to Durham on Monday of this week and played their first game of the season in the O. H. A. Despite the fact that Flesherton did not have the same line-up as intended at the first of the year, they showed up pretty well. The score does not indicate the brand of hockey that was dished up at all, as one of the nicest lit- tle hockey matches that Flesherton ever played was pulled off over there. The local boys were somewhat handicapped with the larger ice sur- face, and were completely lost for awhile, but just long enough for Dur- I ham to slip 15 past Roy; and those I 15 were not the only ones coming his I way. In the sixty minutes of hock- ] ey there were 64 shots on Roy, and I as a new man in the nets, one could not expect much more, could one? | The Durham boys are a very fast and clean bunch of players and on our own ice, January 31st, the score should be a little different. Now don't lose confidence in the boys in I their first game, there's more com- I ing and if the boys get the support I they should go over the top. The following was the line-up: Durham â€" Goal, E. M:Donald; Defence, A. Clements and W. Wilson; Centre, C. McGirr; R.W., C. Bushlen; L.W., E. Elvidge, subs, W. Snell and 0. Moon. Flesherton â€" Goal, R. Piper; Def- ence Boyd and Thurston; L. W., C.
