On Monday forenoon Mr. Thomas_Jun- kin, of lot 18, con. 2, Verulam, received the sad news that his eldest son, James Albert, was dead from injuries received in a mine at Rossland, B. C., but no par- ticulars were given. The telegram was sent by Mr. Junkin‘s second son, John Wesley, who has been for some years a resident of Rossland, Where'he was join- ed shortly before Christmas by Albert, who had been teaching school some- where in Alberta. municated with as soon as possible after his telegram had been received, and he sent back word that he was leaving that day (Monday) with the embalmed body of his brother, and would wire as sd'on as he reached Winnipeg. Under favorable conditions he could be here to-morrow, (Saturday) ; but as up to noon to-day (Thursday) he has not again been heard from, it is probable that he has been delayed by snow blockades or some other cause on his long journey of over 2,500 miles. James Albert Junkiu was nearly 35 years old, and not married. It is needless to say that general sympa- thy is felt and expressed for his parents and other relatives in their sudden be- reavement. - Fenelon Falls Curlers Win. The McDiarmid-McFadden cup (known in curling circles as the “ Mack ” cup), will spend its first year at Fenelon Falls as a result of the games on Friday last. This cup was donated last fall by Messrs. F. A. McDiarmid, then a resident of the Falls, and Mr. George McFadden, of Lindsay, the object being to stimulate competition between the two clubs. The first games were played on January 10th, and gave the local broom wielders a lead .of nine shots. In the second games, played on Friday last, the Lindsay men succeeded in scoring six shots more than the locals, which left Fenelon Falls three shots up. The play all through the competition was good, and some fine shots were made. The Falls won five of the eight games played, and scored on a good many more ends than their op- ponents, who, however, nearly made up the difference with big counts, making two seven ends in the course of the play. The cup is still on exhibition in the window of Mr. J. H. Stanton's photo- graph studio, and is a. very desirable piece of silverware, of which the Fenelon Falls curlers are proud to be the holders. Following were the results of Friday's games : LINDSAY. FENELON FALLS. At Lindsay. -â€" Clary, E. Nevison, M. Sisson, T. Cashore, R. Butler, J. H. Stanton, Rev. J. W. Wallace, F. A.

(Correspondence of the Gazette) There are several cases of measles in this section, and no dbubt those who arewaiting oaths little, patients. willbe Wesley was com: . glad when it is all over, as there is loss of sleep, and it takes anzcxtra amount of fuel to keep the patients warm. On the evening of Monday, the 28th ult., Miss May Dance y entertained. about twenty-five of her. young friends. Vocal and instrumental ,‘music and all the pop- ular games were on the progl'mmllo. 311d a few hours were very pleasantly spent. Mr. Norman Gillis was rather unfortu- nate last Friday afiernoon. He was ex- ercismg one of: their horses, which slip- pedand fell, with the result that Mr. 1 Gillies has been nursing a. sore foot ever smce. Last Wednesday evening (Jan. 30th) a very happy event took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jeseph Perrin, when their youngest daughter, Mabel, yandéélyr. F. Maunder were united in marâ€" ‘ r1. . 'The presents were very nume- rous, showing the high esteem in which the contracting parties are held. Mr. Robert Willock, from the North- west, has been in this localityvisiting ‘ relatives. He reports a big change in this section since he left. A Coboconk.” (Correspondcucc of the Gazette ) The old time tea and entertainment given by the Ladies' Aid of the Metho- dist Chureh, Coboconk, on Thursday evening, January Slst, was a decided success. The tea was served with a delicacy that is seldom equalled and rarely, if ever, surpassed in places of much larger size and importance. The waiters, consisting in all, of eight young ladies, illled their place with graceand dignity, and deserve a great deal of credit for their care in handling dishes and their untiring cilorts to serve. The church being filled far beyond its seat- ing capacity, it required two hours and a-half of hard work on the part of the waiters and the Ladies of the Aid in or- der to provide for the hungry. At 8.40 the chairman called the crowd to order, and the programme began by the singing of one stanza of “ All hail the power of Jesu’s name.” The items of the programme were few but well chosen, and were rendered in a manner that reflected much credit upon all who took a part. Mr. Parrish, of Fenelon Falls, sang two selections, which were very much appreciated by all, for he proved himself to be an able singer. The key-note of the evening's pro- gramme was struck, however, when the chairman announced an address by the Rev. H. B. Kenny, of Fenelon Falls, on “The Old and the New Woman.” Mr. Kenny is certainly an orator of a rare type, fluent and forceful; and, although he spoke for an hour, he had perfect or- der throughout, and the crowd seemed eager for him to continue. His address was helpful and emphatically entertain- ing, and we trust that this shall not be the last time the ladies shall be success- ful in procuring him for an address. A vote of thanks to those who assisted in the programme was moved by the president, Mrs. S. A. Kemp, and second- ed by tho vice-president, Mrs. J. R. Philâ€" lips, and the entertainment concluded by the singing of the national anthem. All were delighted with the receipts of the evening, which, as nearly as can be ascertained thus far, amounted to $55. CORRESPONDENCE . â€"... To the Editor of the Fenelon Falls Gazette .- Sm,â€" Kindly allow me a small space in your paper, as in reading “ Justice ” '5 reply to “ Looker On,” in your last issue, I should judge by the tone thereof, also insinuations and slurs that have been given, that it is thought my wife or my- self is the author of the same, which you, Mr. Editor, know is not so ; and as I think “Looker On " is well able to look after himself, I do not intend to be drawn into any newspaper controversy; but would advise “Justice,” when he goes hunting, to be sure of his target, and not call anyone“ cowardly knave," etc., for not doing the thing which he himself failed to do, and to take the last sentence of his letter to heart before quoting it to others. Yours truly, ' WM. MCINTOSH. Rosedale, Feb. 5th, 1907. To the Editor of the Fenelon Fall: Gazette. Dunn Sm,â€" In referring to the letters of “Looker On " and “ Justice," while I do not admit that any anonymous corres- pondence either public or private should be recognized, I feel obliged to take ex- ception to certain statements made by “Justice,” which are not true and are calculated to mislead the public. I refer to that portion of her letter containing what she calls her reasons for not have ing a Union Church. These are not the true reasons, and, if true, would not be valid in any case, as the very fact of the proposed Chureh being a Union one would put it out of the jurisdiction of both the Church of England Synod and the Presbytery, being entirely under the control of the trustees, a fact which I stated at the time the utter was made. , I may say that up to the present time i have never been given any reason by those responsible for the refusal of the oiler in question; nor do I want any. as I am perfectly well aware of the true reason. On the other hand. the Presby- terians were perfectly justified in do- clining. if they saw iit,.(nlthough they are by no means unanimous on that point), but they are not justified in cir- culating a lot of bogus reasons. or, rath- er, excuses, for so doing, 1 have also been informed that it was-supposed that I was the author of the" Looker On " letter. I have not the slightest lino“- ledge of the identity of either “ Looker On " or “Justice.” Anything I have to say will be said “ out in meetin',” or over my- own signature. Personally I consider- the queries of “ Looker On " would have been. quite pertinent, and certainly justified; by passing events. if they were made by-a supportcr~of the3 A L'. body and over‘their . There is one little ray of -'l 'ih"“‘.l_iis- tice "‘5 letter, (which, like the Solitch. joke, has the sting in the tail), whch with amusing frankness she" scores “ Locker On _". for being cowardly, incom- sistent, etc, in not signing his name, and then promptly forgetsth be 'cpiisisteiit enough to Sign her own. “ Colisisteiicy. thoucertainly art a jewel" not apparent among the decorations of “ Justice." 511» conclusion, allow me to state thatithe few of us who acknowleng allegiance to the Church of England are not worry” ing over these matters at all, except to correct any misstatements that may be- madc. We intend to have a church, and will extend a cordial invitation to anyâ€" one, who so desires, to help us build it. and to worship in it when built. There will be no secrecy about our methods, and anyone and everyone will be welâ€" come to all the information we can give at any time. FRED. J. GOODMAN. Roscdale, Feb. 5th, 1907.
