Apparently the only sonsible reason for featuring such an idea is the purpose to give a ‘*boost‘" to the silver and other minâ€" ing camps, even though it be at the iz that nothing along this line had been eonmdered by the Union so far. Indeed, there had not been even disâ€" cussion along this line at the Union meetings. ‘""I don‘t know where the newspapers got such reports,‘‘ said Mr. MeKinnon, ‘‘but there has to my knowledge been nothing to justify It is an odd fact that these outside newspapers seemm seldom to refer to this district except to misrepresent or injure it. A couple of years ago these same outside paperse acted as if they were simply determined to have labor troubles here, whether or no. Their action @ertainly did not assist in avoid ing difficulty. The game attitude now would be a fruitful souree of harm, were it not for the fact that the men here are not swayed easily and do not repond to every irresponsible sugâ€" zestion.

The Iroquois Falls team came here by special train, but this time did not bring their brass band. The resalt was that when there was trouwble with the engine on the train, the Falls train had no music ready to soothe tho savage breast of the. lbeomotive. ‘The final consequence was that the special did not arrive here until 9.15 p. m., and the game consequently did not start until about quarter to ten. The Falls had desired to have a reâ€" fereo and judge of play brought here for the game from Cobakt and this beâ€" ing quite satisfactory to the Porâ€" cupine team, Mr. N. F.

The alarm of fire was turned ir about quarter to twelve, and the brigade made the usual speedy re«â€" ponse,. The fire, however, by this tiame had great hbheadway, and the dense volumes of smoke made fightâ€" ing it a very difficult matter. _ The fire originated in the big new ‘baseâ€" ment of the store, from some eause or causes unknown, though there is a probable theory that it generated from spontaneous combustion. K seemed to start among some oils and the stdre fire extinguishers were used on it without the desired effect. The blaze rapidly gained headway and the stifling smoke drove the staff from the basement. In a few minutes more the store ground floor was so filled with smoke that the staff had to seek safety outside. A few minâ€" utes after the fire was discovered it had such headway, aided ‘by the dense suffocatiny fumes and smoke, that the plaoe was doomed. The firemen put up an energetic and effective batâ€" tle with the flames, but npothing ecould be done further than to preâ€" vent the spread of the fire to other buildings. In a short time three or four lines of hose were playing on tho building at the most advantagâ€" eous points. The nature of the matâ€" erial stocked in a furniture and hardware store, however, made the fireâ€"lighting very difficult. Tho Gdenrse smoke from oils, mattresses, ate., inâ€" terfered with closeâ€"up fire fighting, though the firemen took chanses on several oceasions. The rapid sproad of the tire and the dense choungs 0% smoke practically made it impesable to sare any of the stocks.
