OPENING MATGH OF P1. EiL WOn BV HouLiNGEr The opening match of the P.D.F. L. was held in Timmins on Thursday last when the Hollinger team were at home to the Dome.. Both teams were evenly matched and m good even game was played. _ The ball was on theswing most of the time, although the Hollinger came out on top of a 4â€"3 sceore. The teams were:â€" j Hollingerâ€" Erickson, goal; Roâ€" berts, Jr., and Hetherington, backs; Hamilton, MeLaughlin and H. Burt, halfâ€"backs; Taylor. Satrang, Petterâ€" son, Spanton and Dunbar, forwards. The Dome pressed and tested out the Holly backs and found them safe. The ball was returned to the other end and Sharp was called upon to save. Back it came and the Dome soon drew first blood when Douglas netted the first tally. They did. not keep the lead long for Satrang tied up with a nice shot. The match went on, both teams givâ€" ing a fine display of football. Beâ€" fore halfâ€"timeâ€" the Dome again took the lead when +Dougall received a pass from R. Harrower and drove the leather home. The second half continued fast, ‘both teams striving for supremacy. The Hollinger got the first tally of this half when Hetherington took a free kick and sent it to Dunbar, and a combined attack took place, Dunbar passing to Petterson, who passed to Satrang, who drove it home with a terrific drive. The Dome tried for a lead again, but the Holly backs were sound and kept them out. The half was not very long on when Spanton put the Hollingers in the lead from Satrang‘s pass. â€" Midfield play followâ€" ed, the halves of both teams checking in fine style. Spanton put the Holly further ahead when he took a long shot. Sharp ran out but misjudged it and started a backward run, but failed to get the ball safe. It went in over his hands for a secore. The Dome pressed hard now and penned up the Hollinger for a while. After some little play around this area Erickson ran out and missed the ball. Honer ran in to finish the shot, only to have Roberts clear it a foot from the goal line. The play went from end to end till half a minute from time, when the Dome was awarded a penalty, Fidock scoring off the spot kick. Domeâ€" Sharp, goal; Fell â€" and Ewart, backs; A. Harrower, R. Harâ€" rower, â€" andâ€" Fidock, â€" halfâ€"baecks; Goodman, Dougall, Honer, Douglas and Andrews, forwards.

LOSS OF OVER $120,000 IN FIRE NEAR TEMAGAMIT Another series of disastrous fires is reported this week from different centres in the North, says The Northâ€" ern News. â€" The most serious was that at Goward, two miles north of Temaâ€" gami, where the big sawmill of the Temagami Timber Cn, the largest plant of its kind in this district, was completely destroyed by fire at an early hour Thursday morning. Other fires occurred during the week at Earlton, Kirkland Lake and Lorrain Valley. . The mill at Goward went up in flames shortly after one o‘clock Thursday morning, and the cause of the blaze is a complete mystery, acâ€" cording to the men who had been working there and who came through here yesterday. Mechaniecs had ‘beer at work making the necessary repairs to start up the plant for the coming season, but there was no ‘fire in any of the boilers, it is stated. One of the men told The Northern News that he was awakened about 1.10 a.m. by the ery of ‘"‘fire.‘‘ He could not account for the blaze, he said, which seemed to spread with appalling rapidity. This man said that a numâ€" ber of the men working at the mill had been up until cluse on midnight, and there was no sign of anvthmfl' untoward then. The mechanics: on the job lost all of their tools, as it was impossible to save anything, so quickly and so fiercely did the plant burn The piles of lumber in the yard were not destroyed, nor were the various other buildings affected. The mill, which was erected a year or two ago, cost $120,000 to build, it is stated. About 65 or 70 men were emâ€" ployed by the company last season, it is learned.

Thursday evening last while on his way home from work, Thomas Hickey, an oldâ€"timer resident of Cobalt, was struck by the Continental Limited and badly injured. He was hurried to the Mines Hospital, but his conâ€" dition last week was reported as very serious indeed. He sustained a fracâ€" ture of the base of the skull, a broken collarâ€"bone, and other less serious inâ€" juries. He was walking home on the track and apparently did not hear the approaching train. _ Desperate effort was apparently made to stop the train when it was seen that the man was not aware of his danger, but there was not time enough to avoid the accident. At first Mr. Hickey did not seem to be badly hurt, being able to walk to and from the automobile that carried him to the hospital. Arâ€" riving at the hospital, however, he beâ€" came delirious, and on examination by the doctors the serious extent of lus injuries was apparent. COBALT OLDâ€"TIMER HIT ...
