Timmins Expects to Retrieve Defeat at Falls in Opening Match There on Monday Night. | «‘ Well, the, Township will look far and long before another man with the ability of C. V. Gallagher will be found.‘‘ With a ready word, a keen wit, and Irish humour, Mr. Gallagher could most readily adapt himself to the many functions both public and social that fall to the lot of the govâ€" erning head of the municipality. At the same time a clearâ€"sightedness, combined with good business ability, enabled him to see dangerâ€"spots on the horizor of the township‘s welfare and so avoid them, and steer his ship of state into the clear waters of comâ€" fortable prosperity which Tisdale is enjoying toâ€"day. We all wish Mr. (Gallagher happiness and prosperity in this, his year of rest from municipal work, l The final meeting of the 1925 Counâ€" cll was held Thursday evening, with All the Council present. Routine busiâ€" ness took up the chief part of the sesâ€" sion. It may be noted that there seems to be a very general regret throughout the municipality that Reeve Gallagher is dropping from municipal affairs. His six years in the Reeve‘s chair have been years ‘of steady progress for Tisdale. _ Even those who at times have supported his opponents have been heard to remark: L 1A > > > s r C . > 7 > > * â€" NP rl\fl NK AA U a of the cost. He also mentioned that the council had been able to keep both Pearl Lake and Porcupine Lake from being filled in with slimes. acquiring of the good road to Timâ€" mirs which had been secured by the municipality paying only ten per cent. %® For the Timmins team, Ganton starâ€" red, putting up a clever game and scoring two of the three goals. Boyd also worked with a will and was the other seorer for Timmins. Tommy Lawrence, as usual, was a steady hard worker, and Arundel and Greceo showâ€" ed good promise. Couture, on deâ€" fence, and Charlebois were also workâ€" ers. In gosul, Levine had a lot of work to do and made a number of spectacular saves and some cute stops that ticklod the crowd. The team, as a whole however, was off form. The! boys after the game frankly admntteo that it was a different brand of hocy than what they had shown at S bury. Perhaps the reaction from trip south and maybe a ov confidence or lack of appreciation the real value of the Falls team hM a bearing on the result. But ti boys are oat toâ€"night to redeem the: selves and even up with the Fal In view of the heavy ice, the game was fast throughout. The Falls boys were speedy skaters and had the edge on the Timmins lads in this as wel} as in combination. The Falls defence also worked well and was effective. Mills, for the Falls, is a good man in goal. Lever, Duffy and Melntyre made a speedy and clever forward line. I A crowd of about, 120 went down from Timmins on the special for the game. ‘The fans were very enthusiasâ€" tic going and coming, and it must be admitted that the match was a good one to watch, being lively all the way through. The Hollinger Stores staff was out practicually in a to cheer the locals and on the train and at the rink made a goodly noise. Many of the oldâ€"time hockey fans also were present to give their supâ€" port to Junior hockey. The weather was very soft but the ice was much better than expected, though naturally a little heavy going. The game was generally a very clean one, both teams avoiding any deliberate rough stuff and all the penalties being minror ones. The boys gave all they had and put up creditable hockey, and now doubt will do still better as the seaâ€" son advances. Mr. Chas. Roach was referee and showed the finest ability and fairness. He kept the boys playing hockey all the time and was impartial and unbiassed all the way. The crowd seemed to like his work. The Score was 8 to 3 Against Timmins in Game at the Falls on Monday Night.

PLAVâ€"OFF FCR TIMMING GURLING GUP SATURDAY Rinks, Skipped by Messrs Gauthier and Solomon to Decide Winners This Week. There was a substantial gain in the output of gold. Eleven months‘ proâ€" duction amounted to $27,209,970, so that the figures for the full year should show a total of about $29,500,â€" 000. _ This compares with $25,669,262 in 10924, or an increase of about 15 per cent. Twelve mines, six in Porâ€" cupine and six in Kirkland Lake are now turning out bullion, the yield of the two camps being estimated at $24,250,000, and $5,250,000 respectiveâ€" ly. The gold production of Ontario to the end of the year 1925 exceeds by three millions of dollars the total production of the famous Yukon disâ€" trict. The two best years of Yukon, 1900 and 1901, fell short of the two. best years of Ontario, 1924 and 1925, by aboutâ€"~15 millions of dollars. The was at its height, and the demand for such metals as nickel and copper was insatiable, the value of the mineral output was nearly $5,000,000 less than in the year now closing. _ Including both metals and nonâ€"metals, the agâ€" gregate value amounted to about $85,â€" 000,000. _Of this say $60,800,000 was for the metals, mainly gold, silver, nickel and copper, this being an adâ€" vance of about $9,000,000 over 1924. In a recert interview at Toronto Hon. Mr. MeCrea made many interâ€" esting and illuminating comments on conditions in the mining industry in Ontario at the end of 1925. Hon. Mr. MeceCrea stated that all records of proâ€" duction were surpassed during the year. Even in 1918, when the war Probably no _ man in â€" Ontario keeps in closer touch with conditions in the mining industry than Hon. Chas. MceCrea. The Minister of Mines ,by his study and attention to his deâ€" 'partment has placed himself in a _sure and sound position to speak authoritatively on mining matters, and the fact that he is always optiâ€" mistic in regard to the mines is a proof that the industry is gaining a high and a firm place in the life of the Province. It may not be amiss to note that much of the eredit for the improved prospects in the mining industry are directly traceable to the thoughtful policies and the unceasing care and attention of Hon. Mr. Meâ€" Crea. Mr. MeCrea has renewed con fidence in the Government‘s fairness towards prospector, financier, miner, and the workers in the mines.. The feeling has grown that everybody is assured of a fair, square deal. That is a big thing. Hon. Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines for the Province, Comments on Conditions in the Mining Industry.

The only change in trains so far as Timmins is concerned is the fact that the mornâ€" ing Toronto train, No. 46, leaves Timâ€" mins now at 11 o‘clock instead of 11.30 as formerly. The change in time of this train caused several to miss their train here the beginning of this week. When The Advance was published last week the new time table had not been received here, though it was understood that a change was under consideration. On Friday the new schedule was received at Timmins and was posted up at the station, but was not seen by some unâ€" til too late to save the missing of a train.

MOBNING TORONTO TRAIN LEAVING ROW AJ HEVEN gTess, ‘‘I think,""‘ concluded Mr. MceCrea, ‘‘that I have said enough to show that the mining industry of this Province is making rapid, even remarkable proâ€" The proof of the pudding is in the cating of it. During 1924 dividends paid by five gold and five silver mines amonnted to $6,465,0483 for gold, and $1,746,027 for silyer mines, a total of $8,211,070. This record was bettere«@ in 1925. The full official returns have not yet been received, but the figures are placed at $8,197,468 for gold minâ€" es, and $1,887,506 for silver mines, a total of $10,084,974, The nickel industry is also making history. _ The close of the war and the limitation of armaments seemed to spell only disaster for the nickel minâ€" | ing, and the industry lapsed into semiâ€" paralysis. But the nickel companies grasped the situation with both hands, and put on an energetic technical, eduâ€" cational and advertising â€" campaign which cost them probably a million dollars. It brought results. New and extensive mses for nickel were developed, old ones were ~enlarged and diversified, and a demand was created for nickel, which has already brought production to a point 40 per cent. above that of preâ€"war times, and promises to raise it even beyond demand of the peak years of the war. Nonâ€"metallies and construction maâ€" terials contributed to the total sum of $24,000,000. or about the same as in 1924. Building operations in the twentyâ€"five cities of Ontario were on a rather larger scale than in the previâ€" ous twelve months, the permits in the first eleven months amounting to $53,â€" 622,049, as against $51,787.828 in 1924. The prices of building material are gradually declining, which probably accounts for the slightly lower value allotted to the nonâ€"metallie list. They are, however, still more than 50 per cent. in excess of the prices of 1913. As to silver, the story of the silver fields of Ontario is a fascinating one, but too long for me to recount toâ€"day. The treasure chambers of Cobalt have been substantially reduced, but their place is being taken by those of South Lorrain and Gowganda. â€" The silver output for 1925 will probably prove to have exceeded that for 1924 by at least half a million dollars. It may be placed at $7,250,000, as compared with $6,717,975 last year. promise for 1926 is for a still further advance. PRICE FIVE CENTS
