This (Thursday) is Guy Fawkes Day, Nov. 5th, and this evening Gold Nugget Rebekah Lodge will hold a Masquerade Dance in the I. 0. O. F. Hall, the event being an open one, with the best of refreshments, music, and a good time, for all. ~The first flight on the program was a flight past the machine on the water, on which were stationed Hon. James Lyons, Mr. W. C. Cain, the Deputy Minister of Lands and Forests, Prof, E. J. Zavitz, Provinâ€" ecial Forester; Squadron Leader A. T. Cowley, Controller of Civil Aviaâ€" tion for Canada; A. J. Wilson, Secreâ€" tary of the Royal Canadian Air Force of the department of National Defence, and Capt. W. R. Maxwell, director of the Provincial Air Serâ€" vice. FTFhe machines flew by the barge one at a time for the purpose of inspection and demonstration of service ability. The machines then proceeded north and south and formâ€" ed in two groups, the manoeuvres following. _ In the evening the first annual banquet of the Provincial Air Serâ€" vice was held at the Algonquin Hotel. _â€"All of the sixteen machines here been engaged for the past seven months on forest patrol duties, and remote ‘transport flying, which inâ€" eluded tlie transportation of eight or ten tons of provisions to the Red Lake®gold area north of Long Lac. proved the modern methods used in saguting for bush fires through the use the hydroplanes. Others have feared that too much attention has been given to the airships and too much money spent on them. The idea behind this feeling is that while the airships are probably very valueâ€" able in the work of spying out inâ€" cipient forest fires, they are of little value in the work of fighting fires under way. The opinion has been expressed that so much money has been spent on the air service that the rest of the forest fire protection service bhas been ‘Tteduced. . There are very few thoughtful people, however who would depreciate the airship service Some â€" might _ strengthen dther branches, but there would be little disposition to reduce the airship force of the Department. (In any case it is certain that there is very general and sincere interest in the Ontario Air Service. Accordingly more than passing attention will be given to the series of manoeuvres at Sault Ste. Marie last week by sixteen of tha seaplanes of the Ontario Air Service. The sixteen planes flew in formation over ths city and did a number of ‘‘stunts‘‘and movements, in the presâ€" ence of a number of distinguished visitors including Hon. James Lyons, Minster of Lands and Forests, in whose department the air service is included. The flight which was the most extended undertaken by flying boats of a commereial air service in Canada, was very spectacular. People in this part of the North have noted with mixed feelings the emphasis given the airship in forest fire protection service. _ Some have UNUSUAL DEMONSTRATION BY ONTARIO SFAPLANES Machines of Provincial Forest Air Service Engage in Manoeuvres. In view of the vote last Thursday throughout the Dominion, the general opinion is that the King Government should resign at once, the party now Never has there seemed to be as unsatisfactory an election as that of October 29th. _ While the Conservaâ€" tives swept all but two or three proâ€" vinces, and have the largest group, they «lid not win a majority over all. Half a dozen more seats would have given them this lead. Had Quebec elected ten or twelve Conservatives, as some expected, the situation would have been clear. _ As it is, it is apâ€" parent that six out of the nine proâ€" vinces desire a change from the King Government. While Conservatives are the Largest Group, They Have Have not a majority Over All. General Opinion is That Present Government Should Resign at Once. Another Electoin Seems Inevitable.

CLVB FOR YHIR The following is the standing of the parties in the House as given over the wire toâ€"day :â€"â€" being a minority group. Premier King specially asked for a working majority over all. Insteal the electors failed to thus endorse the Governâ€" ment, and the Premier and eight of his colleagues went down to personal defeat in their own ridings. It is understood: now, however, that the Premier intends to hang on to office, trusting to being able to keep the Provressives with him for a time at least. He‘ will run for another Liberal seat and by open‘ng other Liberal seats secure enough to fill out his Cabinet. . C. G,. Pirie the New President. Mr. E. L, Urquhart, Viceâ€" President, P TO.

Honour Roll For October Schumacher Public School Last night or this morning, or‘ beâ€" twixt and between, tlrat is, at 12.55 midnight, there was an alarm from Box 51 and the Fire Brigade made a specially speedy run, showing once more again the value of the motor truck. The fire was at No. 1. Wilson Avenue, occupied by Max Steinberg, as a tailor shop, and owned by N. Dupois. The cause of the fire was apparently an electric iron left with the power turned on. The iron beâ€" came so heated that it set fire to the bench on which it stood. _ Although there was an immense. amount of smoke, there was not much fire and the skilful use of the chemical tank by the Fire Chief and his men soon settled the matter. ‘"*It was one of the smokiest fires I have seen,"‘"‘ said the Fire Chief in commenting on the proportion between fire and smoke in this case. About $10.00 or $15.00 damage was done. There was no covering insurance. ELECTRIC IRON LEFT ON | STARTS FIRE LAST NIGHT. Premier King, Rt. Hon. G. P. Graâ€" ham, Minister of Railways; Hon. A. T. Low, Minister of Trade and Comâ€" merce, Hon. G. N. Gordon, Minister of Immigration, Hon. James Murâ€" dock, Minister of Labor, Hon. Walter E. Foster, Secretary of State, Hon. Vincent Massey, Hort. Herbert Marâ€" ler and Hon. J. E. Sinclair, ministers without portfolio. The fate of Premier King and memâ€" bers of his Government in their own ridings may be taken as an indicaâ€" tion of the general feeling in the country. The Premier was defeated in his own riding by the redoutable Herbert Lennox who staged a magniâ€" fitent political comeâ€"back. _ Eight other members of the King Cabinet also went down to defeat. The nine defeated ministers were:â€" Premier and Eight of His Collsagues Fail To Win in Their Own Ridings.

Hall here. Comment is often made in regard to the excellent service given on the diners on Toronto trains to and from Timmins. _ The Football boys have a special word for the serâ€" vice given them on their recent trip to Toronto for the Ontario Cup match Mr. Winks, agent for the diner serâ€" vice on this line, was on the train and did a great deal to make the trip pleasant for the boys. He arranged matters so that they were able to dine together, and in other ways he saw that the Champions of the North had the best of service on their trip down and back,. A sad accident occurred at Schnâ€" macher on Tuesday morning while iron piping was bemfl' unloaded for the‘ Fogg ((mtraotmg Co. _ A chain and gin pole were being used in the unloading of the pipe, and it is thought that the guy broke and either the chain or the pole struck Silas Woods, young man of about 22 years of age, who was assisting with the work. The young man was struck across the head, sustaining a fracturâ€" ed skull. The accident occurred in the morning, and though the young man did not pass away until about nine o‘clock in the evening, he never regained consciousness after the blow across the head,. He was hurried to the hospital and everything that medâ€" ical skill and care could do was done but without avail. The late Silas Woods was a young man who had made many friends in the Camp during the short time he was here. He was of fine character and pleasant disposition and his unâ€" timely death will be very sincerely reâ€" gretted. His home was near Campâ€" bell‘s Bay in, the Ottawa district. His parents were notified and were expected to reach here last night. The remains will be taken to Campbell‘s Bay this week for interment. EXCELLENT SERVICE ON DINER TO AND FROM TORONTO Silas Wools Has YOUNG MAX KILLED WHILE HELPING UNLOAO PIPE olUs Has Skull Fractured When Guy Broke. Mr. Richard‘s fine baritone voice, its richness and training, and his talented rendering of the selections given were also features of the evenâ€" ing‘s programme. The artist making the big hit of the evening, however, was Mrs. Jenkins. Her rendition of ‘*Dream of Home,‘‘ won very insistent encore. Mrs. Jenkins has a soprano voiee of remarkable power and range, sweet and expressive and well conâ€" trolled. â€" On this, her first appearâ€" ance on a concert platform in ‘Fimâ€" mins, she was hailed as a decided acâ€" Master James Macfadden proved to be a young pianist with rare ability and his selections were much appreâ€" ciated. The duet by Mr. Jenkins and Master Macfadden made a special hit. Master Sam Katz, viclinist, was anâ€" other of the youthful artists showing talent and musical ability. Mr. James Lloyd, by his talented rendition of the selections given, showed his outstandâ€" ing ability as a cornet soloist. Mr. Piper‘s unusually attractive tenor voice, his understanding rendiâ€" tion of pleasing selections and his unâ€" deniable musical talent once more deâ€" lighted all.

There were two disappointments last night in connection with the Grand Concert given by the Premier Artists of Timmins in the New Emâ€" pire Theatre. _ One tWvas that little Miss Margaret EBaston, who was on the programme for Highland dance numbers, was unable to be present, and the other disappointment was the fact that there was not a full house for the event. The merit of the proâ€" gramme warranted a much larger atâ€" tendance in this musicâ€"loving town. The programme was one of special excellence, combining variety, interest and musical value in high degree. Mr. Will Richards and those associated with him in this musical enterprise deâ€" serve the highest commendation for the attractive programme of highâ€"class music presented, and, as the chairâ€" man suggested, nuch more wholeâ€" hearted support should be given such effort, because good music is a decided asset to any community.

No. la., Tisdale Many friends in this town and disâ€" trict will be specially interested and pleased at the election of Dr. M. J. Maloney for South Renfrew. In four different election contests Dr. Maloney put up a clean and gallant battle only to be defeated. Now, he has won by over a thousand majority= over Hon. Thos. A. Low. By character, ability, public spirit and perseverance, Dr. Maloney deserves the win. In the pianoforte competition there were four entrants, ‘all showing noteworthy _ talent. Mr. : H.: M. Martin, of South Poreupine, acted as judge of the competition, and in a brief but very apt address explained the purpose of the competition and the rules by which it would be judged. He also referred to the pleasure given him by the fine musical programme of the evening, and complimented Timâ€" mins on the large number of talented musicians here. His announcement of the prize winners won hearty apâ€" plause, showing that his expert opinion was endorsed by the audience. In the competition the following were the prize winners:â€"1lst, Brownie Mereâ€" dith, aged 12; 2nd, Margaret Lloyd, aged 10; 3rd, Bertha Katz, aged 10. A special prize was given Violet Jackâ€" son, aged 12, the fourth competitor. Saturday of this week, November Tth, will be the last weekly market for the season. The Timmins market at the Skating Rink this season has been very successful and of benefit to producers and consumers alike. Settâ€" lers and market gardeners in the disâ€" trict have made use of the Market to get in touch with buyers, and the pubâ€" lie in general has found the Market of venuine service in providing opâ€" portunity for the purchase of produce direct. In the early part of the seaâ€" son this year the Curling Rink was used for market purposes. It was found, however, that it was not as acâ€" cessible as the Skating Rink and after a few weeks‘ trial, the Market was moved to the Skating Rink where it had been so successful and popular last year. The move was followed by a noteworthy increase in the usefulâ€" ness of the Market, and since then it has taken a very useful agd helpful place for all concerned. _ There will be the regular Market on Saturday of this week and after that the Market will be discontinued for the season,. The Market has been in charge of the Town Engineer‘s Departmentâ€"and has been given very careful attention and care. This has contributed to its use fulness and success, and to the Town,. the Engineer‘s Dept., the producers and the public alike are indebted. The Hollinger has also more than done its part, allowing. the use of the Skatâ€" ing Rink \\1thout charge, and otherâ€" wise assisting in making the Market useful and successful. quisition to the musical talent of the town. She is a pupil of Mr. Will Richards. The duet by Mrs. Jenkins and ‘Mr. Richards was one of the specially appreciated numbers on the programme.
