This week North Bay police discovâ€" ered a 25â€"gallon still in operation at the premises of Dominico Carlino. There were <also three barrels of mask , and five gallons of liquor,â€"all seized hy the police. ‘The house inâ€" side had the appearance of a regular distillery, according to the accounts. Carlino was arrested on the charge of unlawfully manufacturing and hayvâ€" ing liquor for sale. It is expected that there will be further developâ€" ment in the case. A fine ski jump on slide has been fixed up on one of the side streets in nechester Townsite, and the boys are bvmg great spert these days and evenings at this jump.

TWENTYâ€"FIVE GALLON STILL FOUND GOING AT NORTH BAY BOYS HAVING FUN AT SKI JUMP IN ROOHES'I‘ER That the event on Tuesday evening will be successful and enjoyable is a foregone conclusion from the record of previous Kiwanis Club affairs of similar kind. But no matter how big a success it may be, the idea that prompts it is greater and better:â€"â€" **Boys, simply give your best and play the game, and we‘re behind you to the vervy limit."" RNWANIS CGLUB TO GIVE BANQUET TO ROGKEY BOVS The Timmins Kiwanis Cluwh are to give a banquet to the Timmins Junior N. 0. H. A. hockey team at the Emâ€" pire Hotel on Tuesday evening of next week, Jan. 26th. ©This is a parâ€" ticularly fine sample of the best spirit of sportsmanship. The hockey. boys are being honoured, not because they are a winning team, or a losing team, but because they have given of their very best and provided good sport in the hockey line. The event should be a great encouragement to t hockey boysâ€"suggesting, as it surely does, that the people of Timmins are enthusiastically behind any. good sporting aggregation, irrespective. of winning or losing games. The idea is the encouragement of good sport, and there does not seem to be any way in which this spirit of true sport could be more clearly indicated. It seems to be a way of saying:â€"‘‘Boys, we honour you for playing your best, and that best is good! Anything else is incidental.‘‘ Event at Empire Hotel on Tuesday Evening, Jan. 26th. ‘The Right Spirit of Gcod Sport Timmins has had hard luck in its hockey this year. Right at the comâ€" mencement of the season, two of its best men were out of the game through injuries received before a regular game was played. The reâ€" fereeing in some matches was worse than poor, and it seems to have been the luck of Timmins to get the worst of the breaks all . round. Timmins has taken its poor luck in good humâ€" our. The big crowd that went over to ITroquois Falls Monday evening to cheer the ‘boys along and show supâ€" port is proof of the good sportsmanâ€" ship of this town. . The latest hard luck touch is the swspension by the N. 0. H. A. of two valuable players without â€"opportunity for defence. Indeed, Timming does not even know why these players were suspended. As a consequence of the highâ€"handed action of the N. O. H. A., the last two games are under protest. If the N. O. H. A. persists in refusing a fai'i'vi The sixth game in the N. O. H. A. Junior.series for this group is to be beld at Timmins Rink this (Thursday) evening. Although Iroâ€" quois Falls has won five straight games against Timmins, the visitors will have no walkâ€"over toâ€"night. The Timmins boys intend once more to give the Falls a big run for their money. Indeed, Timmins lads, inâ€" stead of being discouraged the breaks going against them all season, are more determined than ever to win. Everybody, including the Falls, and especially the Falls, can be sure that the Timmins team will do their bestâ€" and that best is not to be sneezed at. The Falls will have to earn every game played here. That means that the match toâ€"night will be one well worth seeing. All the games so far have been interesfting and lively hockey, and toâ€"night‘s match is exâ€" pected to be the best yet. Next Scheduled Game in the N.O.H.A.

XI. iockey Match Here Tonight Last for a Couple of Weeks While the public school boys of Iroâ€" quois Falls and the Northern Acaâ€" demy lads at Monteith were playing hockey at the latter place last Saturâ€" day an unfortunate accident occurred. One of the Monteith boys, a lad namâ€" edâ€"Wilson, from Hearst, skated into the corner after the puck, falling against the boards and breaking his leg. Every attention was given the injured player and he is reported as making as good progress as possible to recovery. The fracture is reportâ€" ed as a clean one and no complications are expected. The lad, however, will be out of hockey for the season and also will be laid up for several weeks as a result of the accident. - The North Bay Nugget this week says :â€"* * Mrs. Cressey Beattie and two children, who have been visiting the former‘s grandmother, Mrs. A.

The four Trail Ranger teams are: Timmins Schumacher, South Poreupine:and Dome. The boys certainly expect and intend to have lots of good sport and good hockey. Games at« South Poreupine and Schumacher will be from ten to eleven o‘clock. Timmins games will be from eleven to twelve. Dome games will be played at South Poreupine.

PURGUPINE TRAIL RANGERS AOCKEY LEAGUE MATCHES and open deal for Timmins, it is difâ€" ficult to see how interest can be mainâ€" taimed im a contest that apparently ean have no other purpose than to provide practice matches for Iroâ€" _quois Falls. Timmins certainly has had no favours shown it in this N. O. H. A. hockey. The suggestions that postponement for a week or so be made in the schedule so that Timmins players who were injured could have opportunity to recover and get in the game was pushed aside as not to be considered. Yet the following of the suggestion would have meant better hockey and a feeling that the breaks were not all turned against Timmins. Recently, another suggesâ€" tion was made:â€"that the plan used in the central groupâ€"having. two halves, the winners of the respective halves to play offâ€"be adopted here. There does not seem to be any conâ€" sideration for this idea either, though it would mean greatly increased inâ€" terest in hockey without any disadâ€" vantage to anyone. It would mean that the best team at the end of the season would be the winning team, and that is surely what is desired. In the meantime it would keep up the interest because it would be felt that all the chances were not barred against Timmins. If the N. 0. H. A. continues its attitude that it can penâ€" | alize men whose innocence is asserted, without allowing opportunity for deâ€" fence, then it is practically certain that N. 0. H. A. will lose its popularâ€" ity. Even the 0. T. A. allow a man to hear the charges against him and to defeéend himself against the charges. Even these courtesies do not appear to be part of N. 0. H. A. policy in reâ€" gard to Timmins. Of course, there is only one answer. TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JANUARY 21st, 1926 On Saturday last the Mayor and Councillors each received formal notâ€" ce to the effect that protest proceedâ€" ings had been instituted in connection with the recent municipal election. The notices were from a lawyer in Cochrane and cutlined the grounds on which the protest was based. Chief among these grounds were objections to the keeping of the polls open after five o‘clock; the alteged improper disfranchisement of a number of voters through the enforeement of the byâ€"law regharding tax delinquents ; and some minor grounds of objection. Acâ€" cording to the notices, the hearing of the cases will be before Tis Honour Judge Caron at Cochrane on Friday, Feb. 12th. It is understood that if £ The open air rink at the Central Public School is now in shape and is being enjoyed by the boys and girls alike. The boys play hockey on it, with much enjoyment. There are also hours set apart for the girls. / Mayor and Councillors Have % Received Notice of Protest Formal Notices Received on Saturday Last. Grounds of Protest Outlined.

The feature of the evening was the fact that the fathers of the retiring master and master elected were both present and took a prominent part in the ceremony. The new officers of Abitibi Lodge No. 540 A. F. A. M. were installed Friday night by the/District Deputy Grand Master and ‘thirtyâ€"five pastâ€" masters of the District as follows: The Installation of Officers at Abitibhr Lodge is always one of the events of the district in Masonic cireles, and this year was no gxcepâ€" tion. A numberTrom Timmins, Schuâ€" macher and South went over last week to Falls for the occasion, and report a very interâ€" esting and plessing evening. The following is the report of the event as given in this week‘s Broke Hustâ€" One of the Interesting Lodge Events of the District. Several Present From Timmins INSTALLATION NIGHT AT. ABITIBI LODGE, A.F. A. M. the cases will be before His Honour number of witnesses going up from Timmins for the hearing. In the meantime the Town Council is rather handicapped by the proceedâ€" ings. The tendency is for the counâ€" cil to ‘‘mark time‘‘ until the matter is settled. While Mayor and Council rightly feel they are the dulyâ€"elected representatives of the people, still with the legal proceedings hanging fire, there i$ naturally a feeling on the part of the Council that important matters should be deferred until the technical rights of the council are made plain. This is one of the eosts to the town of the proceedings inâ€" stituted. i * * P -‘;_‘Lâ€".‘ line with good sport. In the suspensions the N. 0. H. A. were apparently going on the unsupâ€" ported report of the referee. This week Bousqet is understood to have admitted that he did not know wheâ€" ther Couture or Greco hit him; that it was them because someone nearby suggested it. Also, it is further afâ€" firmed that he did not write the report to the N. 0. H. A., but simply signed it. It would appear that the suspenâ€" sions are irregular in any case, not being for any stated period. In sportâ€" ing eireles, men are not just suspendâ€" ed, any more than in legal affairs they are"just put in jail. There has to be a definite term.. The D. F. A. went on record strongly along this line year. Anything else seems out of The game Monday night was playâ€" ed under protest, and in the interests of fairness in sport, it is hoped and expected that this game will be orderâ€" ed reâ€"played when the executive meets on Saturday and the suupended playâ€" ers will be reâ€"instated. H. A. ordered a postponement of, this evening‘s game. The local executive objected to any such postâ€" ponement as unconstitutional and unwarranted. | Seventyâ€"two _ hours‘ notice is required for such procedure. Eventually the N. 0. H. A. followed its own rules to the extent of agreeing to the game being played toâ€"night as advertised. _ Accordingly there will be the match at the Timmins Rink this evening. There was general surprise and anâ€" noyance felt here at the suspension of two of the Junior N. 0. H. A. team by the N. O. H. A. executive. The Timmins executive were notified of the suspension of the two playersâ€" Greco and Coutureâ€"but n»st only was there no opportunity given for any defence but the executive here were not even acquainted with the particulars of the suppoised offence or offences for which the suspensions were made The Broke Hustler, of Troquoris Falls, in its issue this week harps on the idea that the players in question assaulted the referee last Thursday night. The point is that Timmins disputes this. The assault on the referee in the little riot on the i¢e after the play was over was not the work of any players but of outâ€" siders.. Some Timmins fans incenjsed beyond bearance by the unfairness and incompetence .of Bousquet, the referee for the Falls, did apparently have a crack at the official More than one reputable citizen, however, is ready to take affidavit that Bousâ€" quet was hit oftener by a Falls man who, of course, may have intended to injure someone else, but who actually gave Bousquet the majority of the blows received as well as injuring Timmins sports who tried to resceue the Falls referee. There is said to be positive proof that neither of the suspended players touched the fallen referee. Greco was not even near him during the fracas. There is no disposition to condone the attack on Bousquet. It was unsportsmanlike, though his attitude was most provok-‘ ing. Timmins people deplore the ocâ€" currence, but there is no intention to. allow innocent players to be penalized for the fault of others. The matter was taken up with the N. O. H. A. executive, but at first that body was inclined to be highâ€"handed. Yesterâ€" day there was an unbending to the extent of announcing a meeting at New ILiskeard on Saturday to deal with the question at issue, Timmins being ~permitted to sent two repreâ€" sentatives to this N. O.â€"H. A. execuâ€" tive meeting to place their side of the the same time the N. 0. Monday Night‘s Game Played Under Protest. Mecseting of N. O. H. A.

Mr. Gillies is survived by his parâ€" ents living at Wine Harbour, Nova Scotia, two sisters, Mrs. Russell Baker, of Wine Harbour, and Miss.

The death occurred at St. Mary‘s Hospital on the 5th instant of Geoâ€" ge Alexander Gillies, familarly known to his associates as ‘‘Sam.‘‘ The late Mr. Gillies, who was in his 25th year had been working at the McInâ€" tyre Mine at Schumacher, where he met with an accident two months ago.

An enjoyable evening is assured all the members attending. Though the attendance was not large at the usual weekly dance of the A. S. D. Club, the evening went through with the snap that characterâ€" izes the dances of the A. 8. D. About fifty members of the Club were presâ€" ent at the Oddfellow‘s Hall on Spruce St., North, for the first reâ€" gular dance that has been held for over a month, and an enjoyable evenâ€" ing was spent.. Three special dances were on the programme, a Paul Jones, directed by W. Mackie, a Broom Dance and a Gentlemen‘s Tag. The Broom Dance proved exceptionally pleasing. Refreshments were served during the evening, Miss Miry Boyd looking after this part of the evening‘s proâ€" gramme. The A. 8. D. Club Orchesâ€" tra furnished the best of music for the dancing, and taken all round the evening was a very happy one. NEXT WEDNESUAY ANNUAL PARTY OF A.5.D0.
