**English interests are said to be inâ€" terested in Night Hawk to the extent that they mlcrht put sufficient money in the company‘s treasury to try to develop the mine to the point where larger mill tonnage and operating economies can be effected. Just how ftar these negotiations have progressed is not known.‘‘ ‘‘Night Hawk Peninsular Mines have made a deal with the power peoâ€" ple whereby they can do one of severâ€" al things in connection with the threatened tieâ€"up of operations due to change in power which means a change from 60 to 25 cycles energy. An arragement has, or is being made, The Northern Miner understands for taking care of the big outlay necesâ€" sary. Night Hawk can either conâ€" tinue to get 60 cyele power by payâ€" ing monthly rental for the Great Northern plant at Indian Chutes; it can suspend operations and make an immediate «change in equipment or it can leave the change until some more convenient time. Though there is no official word available on the point, it is likely that the mill will be closed down on May 15th, the mine kept deâ€" watered with steam power and supâ€" plies ordered immediately so that miring can be resumed as soon as the change in electrical equipment is made. ‘*Many flocks of geese have gone north the past week. Tuesday one Hock of 60 or 70 grey geese went straight north among them being four white geese. Our informant, who is keenly interested in these summer tourists, says never before has she seen white geese with flocks of grey. Some of the flocks flew back and forâ€" ward, circling and in some cases, dropping to the fields. Was there dissention between leader and followâ€" ersâ€"was there mutiny in the ranksâ€" was there premonition of the heavy storm that reached us Saturday night and stayed awhile with usâ€"or was some one using a gun.? Some have since gone south. A pair of wild ducks spent several days last week on a little creek near town."‘ In «wonnection with the di of the situation relative to th Hawk Peninsular Mine, The ern Miner last week says:â€" ENGLISH INTERESTS MAY FINANCE NIGHT F The restless way in which the flocks of geese migrating to the north acted recently on their trip through the country attracted more than usual attention. Anyone at all interested in natural history found the flights of the geese of special attraction. Many unusual things were noted by many interested. Everyone seemed to be ‘struck by the restlessness of the birds, and many guesses were made as to the probable cause. The New Liskeard Speaker always is inâ€" terested in natural history notes, and last week published the following paragraph :â€" ATTAGKED AIS WIFE AND THEN ATTEMPTED SUIGIOF WHITE GEESE TRAVELLING, WITH FLOCK OF GREY GEESHE ‘*What might have proven a double tragedy occurred Saturday night when a man, by the name of Slapnick, atâ€" tacked his wife with some sort of imâ€" plement, cutting her badly about the face and head, after which he atâ€" tempted suicide by gashing his own throat with a razor. Both are now in the Spruce Falls hospital, where they were rushed for medical treatâ€" ment. The woman is recovering, as is the man, whose trial will be held when his condition permits.‘" A man named Slapnick, of Kapâ€" uskasing, and his wife are both at the Spruce Falls hospital for treatment for wounds said to be inflicted by the man. According to the story told, Slapnick beat his wife and then atâ€" tempted to kill himself. A despatch last week from Kapuskasing tells the story as follows :â€" Kapuskasing Man and His Wife Are in the Spruce Falls Hospital We Know How 23 WILSON AVENUE Now Open for Business B a k er y Wedding Cakes Breads, Cakes Pastries and Specialty discussion the Night he Northâ€" Room 4, Ida V.

For some years Timmins has such a station at Sandy Falls, the famous 3 G.G. The Northérn News last week sayvs :â€" ‘‘A petition from local radio owâ€" netrs, asking for a broadcasting station in Cobalt, is to be presented to the Federal Department of Marine and Fisheries at an early date. â€" Signaâ€" tures are being obtained by R. L. Mcâ€" Adam, who reports that the proposal is meeting with great approval in town. _ The Kiwanis Club members are supporting the scheme. The Deâ€" partment exacts a fee of $50 per anâ€" num for the privilege, which sum covers the current fiscal year. In a letter received from the Deputy Minâ€" ister is it stated that a wave length of 248 metres would be assigned to the station here, and that it would be entitled to its share of the week‘s time alloted to that length. The inâ€" tention would be to broadcast locally at hours that would not interfere with the big programmes sent out by the larger stations, it is stated by the promoters of the scheme."‘ COBALT AFTER RADIO BROADCASTING STATION.

Skavlem, EarT Lampkin, Wllham She= wan. Ontario At the noted Buffalo Kennel Show at Buffalo, N.Y., last week, two Timâ€" mins dogs took high place and thus reflected credit on their town and on their owner, Mr. John Massie. Northâ€" wood Sandy, born and bred in Timâ€" }mins, was first in the open class and second in the novice class of Cocker Spaniels. Northern Queen, another of Mr. Massie‘s dogs, and one that has won high honours at Toronto and other important dog shows, won the place as the best female dog in the ‘show at Buffalo. Over 500 dogs, the pick of dogdom in the United States and Canada were exhibited at the Buffalo show, so the honours won by the ~Timmins dogs are accordingly worthy of particular note.
