Hollinger took advantage of this and Kelly, receiving an offâ€"side pass, seorâ€" ed for the Hollinger, The Blue and White seemed to get away with the offside stuff, but MeCoy couldn‘t get away with even little ones. The Town were new tiring, but played a good game and should have had two more goals in this period, getting in on Mc Intyre but their shots were weak. The Hollinger were able to keep fresh by msing their subs. After a nice pigce of work by Lapierre and Kelly, the ger 1, Town 0. In the final stanza the Town pressâ€" ed hard to overcome the lead of one. MeCoy on the left wing now, and Giâ€" roux dropping back on the defence for a further rest. The Town got down to combination, MeCoy pulling off the famous Marshall pass, but at the wrong time for the Hollinger interâ€" cepted it. Kelly and,.ZApierre came down in nice Bobby came up, but LAlIy roobed him at centre ice., The Town were now bunching together and the Hollinger were having the best of the game as they played combination, and were reâ€" warded in five minutes of play, when MacDonald passed to Lapierre who sent in a nice shot from the boards, fooling BObby for a tally. Lynch came on now for Lilly but did not stay lowe, The Town now put all the ginger they had to even matters, and brought Me Intyre to hijs knees for three hot ones. The Town, however, missed many chances through lack of combination. The Hollinzer did not seem to care who got the goals so long as their team seored, and Bobby was having some hot shots to clear. The Town was now showing signs of the pace, and could not get very far, but the deâ€" fence was still strong and were breakâ€" ing up the Hollinger combination and in turp going down. White came down once in rgcord style and sent in a hot one which Mclntyre almost missed. The gong went with the seore Hollinâ€" down in nice <~zimbination. Bobby cleared to White who came up with Giroux and Garrett." They beat fthe defence, Garret passing to White who sent in a nice goal. This made the Hollinger get up steam., The Town had been ‘keeping a clean state but Sid marked the board when bhe held Ross and MeCoy were capable of holding them outside, and Bobby looked after the long shots. ‘Garrett and Groux now came up and got through the Holâ€" linger team and Garret sent in a deadly shot, hut Melntyre made a great save. Bohbby, the town net guarâ€" dian, was having an easy time of it, * as the shots were few and long ones, while Melntvre was havinzs a bhusy while wa time and did well t dozen shots.

His stickâ€"handling was a treat. Garrett played well, and the defence was good. Bcobbie in goal was a star.

Among the guests from a distance were (Mr. Alâ€" derson, of the Toronto Board of Trade; Mr. T. F. King, President of the Timmins Board of Trade; Mr. H. B. Child, (Matheson; Geo. A. Smith, Cochrane; Geo. Lake, Timmins.~â€"Mayor J.

The address by Mr. T. F. King was a particularly capâ€" able one. Mr. Melnuis was presented with two beautiful solid silver vegetâ€" able dishes, suitably engraved and a presentation is to be made this week to Mrs. Melnnis as a slight token of ey and pt ed ‘by Mr tei the could provide so outstanding a menu, so capably handled and so well served.

McINNIS AT PALLS coten quarte fall w makin In the Within the last week or two Toronâ€" to and other outside newspapers have featured a story to the effect that plans were under way to sell the conâ€" trolling interest in the Hollinger Conâ€" solidated Gold Mines, Limited, to a British South African Mining corâ€" nritlish south ATlrican Mining cotâ€" poration or group of interests. Some of the newspapers served the tale with a wealth of detail such as the stateâ€" ment that Mr. N. A. Timmins, Preâ€" sident of the Hollinger, was now in London, England, negotiating the sale. Another paper credited General Manâ€" ager Brigham ‘with being on the way to England in connection with the‘ matâ€" ter. Still another paper quoted a riâ€" diculous amount as the figure that was the price in the supposed deal. All of which shows the unreligbility of the daily press in such matters. Wihen Mr. J. B.

A. Wookey residence, Schumacher, on Saturday evening, March 17th, in honour of St. Patrick and for the pleasure of their friends. There was a large gathering of friends and a delightful social evening was proved very successful and enjoyable from all standpoints. The event was largely attended, the costumes showed much cleverness, originality and good taste, and all present found the evenâ€" ing a very agreeable one indeed. The best of music was furnished by the Melntvre Orchestra. â€" ~. was bad enough ‘but the way the situaâ€" tion was handled showed that some person or persons in @uthority do not have proper thought for the public, or, indeed,; any kind of proper thought at all. : No. 47 from (Foronto was rurn up near the wreck, and after a wait, a train was run down the other side to about a mile away from the wreck. The passengers on 47 were ordered out and foreed to walk a mile or a mile and a ‘half through snow, stumps, slash and slush, .to the other train that was to run them up to Porquis Juneâ€" tion. A little brains would have sutzâ€" gested the running down of the reâ€" lieving train as near the wrecek a‘s posâ€" sible, so as to save the extra walking for the passengers. When the passenâ€" yers were eventually taken to Porqus they had to stay there until halfâ€"past one in the morning, some four unâ€" necessary hours. Why a train could not have been run through to Timmins at once for the convenience of the pasâ€" sengers is as deep a mystery as why there are so many T. N. O. wrecks, or why no one ever gets hurt when the T. N. O. has a wreck. TheT. N. O. reported recently as paying over half a million to the Government from profits would do well to forget profits long enough to see that the public gets half a square deal when wrecks occur through no fault of the public.
