MeIVOR, Assistantâ€"Treasurer. â€"4() Messrs Alf Wilkes and C. Kerr Stewart, of The Midland Free Press,. were visitors to Timmins last week and were greatiy impressed with the growth and development of the town, as all good visitors are. . Donais, the tenâ€"yearâ€"old son of Mr. T. Donais, who was seriously injured rencently by being kicked by a horse, is reported now as making fair recovery. The lad was injured while leading his father‘s horse along the road. The animal began to prance around, and the boy was badly kicked about the head and face. For some days he was unconscious. Then he regained consciousness but was in a more or less delirious state. Wedâ€" nesday of this week, however, he was showing very marked improvement and now appears to be on the way to recovery. The Xâ€"ray photos taken of the boy‘s head showed the skull to be fractured but no injury done to the brain. Specialists from Toronto were called here for the advantage of the injured lad. They confirmed diagnosis and treatment already beâ€" ing given the boy. At police court this week, seven drunks paid the usual $10.00 and costs, while another drunk was laid over for the personal appearance of the offender. Four speeders were assessed $10.00 and costs and three for breach of the parking byâ€"law were taxed $1.00 and «costs. A reckless driving charge was dismissed. A man who issued a cheque while having no funds to meet the same was saved from a term for false pretences by the fact that restitution was made promptly and the cheque was cashed at a time when the offender was unâ€" der the influence of liquor. BOY KICKED BY HORSE NOW MAKING RECOVERY. A young man named Simpson was given a sentence of two months for theft. He took a trunk from the house where he boarded and paid no attention to the fact that it was not his trunk. It is also suid that he left behind an unpaid bill for board, inâ€" stead of paying his own bill and leayâ€" ing the other person‘s trunk behind. The cases against I. Lewis, on forâ€" gery charges were remanded for anâ€" other week, the adjournments being asked while handwriting experts are being secured and other technical matâ€" ters in the cases being dealt with.

Quite an amount of corresponâ€" dence was read;â€"A letter frdm the Canadian Flag and Decorating Co., asking permission to hore holes in the cement sidewalks ip which to place ags was favourably received.

Owing to so many other events the attendance was not very large but the audience was very appreciative of the excellent proâ€" eramme rendered. The Band shows decided improvement each time and is certainly an organization to be proud of. With a little better adâ€" vertising a packed house should have greeted them on Tuesday but many did not know of it till a dayâ€"or so before. After the opening mareh by the band, a cleverly executed pianoâ€"â€" forte solo was given by Miss Carmel LaForest, which received an insistent encore; then the band played the overture ‘‘Gypsy Festival,‘‘ after which the Schumacher Pipe Band started all the toes aâ€"tingling and every braw Scotch countenance in the hall wore a smile of contented admirâ€" ation. When they had been persisâ€" tently encored the next number was the HMighland Fling, daintly and gracefully performed by Miss Jean Wright. Mr. Gene Colombo, acting as chairman remarked that it was well there was plenty of Seotch as it was a dry night for the band. Howâ€" ever in the next number A. Kincaid broke the spell with an Irish song, followed by an encore. Then after the solo, ‘‘In the Garden of Your Heart,‘‘ and the encore **The World is Waiting for the Sunrise,"‘‘ by Mrs. Bowles, who is always welcomed by Poreupine _ audiences, the _ band brought the musical part of the proâ€" gramme to a close, after which the regular pictures were shown. ‘ THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS,â€"ONTARIO. her and helping to make the evening a success. The financial returns were quite satisfactory also, the exact figâ€" ures not being yet known. % The Harvest Home services in the United Church were very well attendâ€" ed last Sunday. Rev. F. Bain, pastor of the church, was in charge.. The church was most tastefully decorated and much credit was given Mr. Skinâ€" ner, our loceal florist, for his help and also for the plants and fixtures loaned. T‘wo very fine anthems were rendered by the choir and Mrs. (Dr.) Russell, of the Dome Mines, gave a feeling rendition of the sacred solo, ‘! Abide With Me.""‘ On Monday evening it seemed as though all steps turned toâ€" wards the Masonic Hall: were the Ladies‘ Guild were serving a chicken dinner _ with English plum pudding and many other dainties. After the hundreds gathered there were fully satisfied a sacred concert was given in the church, the following artists taking part:â€"pianoforte solo, Mr. Johnston; contralto solo, Mrs. Rusâ€" sell; Timmins Male Quartet ; a ecleverâ€" ly given reading by Miss B. M. C. Shaw ; instrumental trio, cello, violin and piano; tenor solo, Mr. Taylor; Timmins Male Quartet; then another instrumental trio; bass solo, Mr. Skelly; pianoforte solo, Mr. Johnâ€" ston; and another Quartet number. All were artists of exceptional merit. The â€" Male Quartet, consisting of Messrs Taylor, Heffernan, Dodge and Skelly, were a strong attraction both in their solo work and also in quartet singing. _ The instrumental trio conâ€" sisting of Messrs Gilbert, Spraggs and Bain was another delightful part. The Ladies‘ Guild and all those who heard the concert appreciate very much the coming of these talented artists from Timmins and Schumacâ€" A sad and sudden, fatality took place at the Dome on Monday evening when the eighteenâ€"months old child of Mr. and Mrs. Zabiaka came in from its play with other children and inside of five minutes it died in its mother‘s arms. It is feared the child may have found something poisonous and eaten it, but at time of writing the real cause of death has not yet been ascertained.)

N. 0. promised repairs to some of the various crossings which had been mentioned in a previous letâ€" ter. _A request for a grant from the Poultry and Pet Stock Association was deferred for later consideration. A request for charity from a Finâ€" lander in town who asked to be sent to a sanitarium was deferred until a report on the case could be obtained. A settler from the north of the townâ€" ship was present asking for remuneraâ€" tion for work he had done on a road he made to gain access to his place. The council thought that granting this would ckeate a precedent that would lead to like appeals being made from various parts of the township. It was promised that if the Provinâ€" cial Government were willing to pay half the expense the township might consider the other perhaps. There were a large number present, re tax appeals but as it is a statutory law that appeals must be made by July 1st it was decided that legal advice would necessarily have to be obtained from the township solicitor before going any further with the cases on hand. Hence those present were asked to be at the regular meeting October 25th. some of the cases were where the taxâ€" payer had not understood the law in regard to being rated as householders instead of single men. Two or three women were there each to prove that her husband was a married man, not the single man which he was accordâ€" ing to his taxpapers. Some had been married since the assessment; others foreigners, had neglected to have the change made in their rating when bringing their wives out from the Old Country. Some (even with two or three children, owing to this misunâ€" derstanding on their part through not giving tlhie proper notification) had been assessed income tax as single men. It is to see what can be done in these cases legally that the matter was delayed. The Township Engineer drew the attention of the council to the danger resulting from the present location of the taxiâ€"stand and other locations were discussed. The danger A very pretty wedding tookK place at St. Anthony‘s R.C. church on Tuesday morning, Oct. 12th, at 8 a.m., when Mr. P. Sherbin, of Timmins, and Miss C. Griffiths of Montreal, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony by Rev. Â¥Fr. J. O‘Gorman. resulting to the public from the method at present used in parking the Dalton and Cunningham buses was discussed. _ These matters will be further dealt with. _ Chief Melnnis said that once other locations and methods of parking were decided on by the Council that there would be no difficulty in seeing that they were adhered to. PRETTY WEDBING AT ST. ANTHONY‘S ON TUE C After the ceremony the bride and groom and immediate friends had the wedding breakfast at their residence, 45 Wilson avenue. The bride was given away by her brother, John, and attended by Miss D. Brown, bridesmaid. Mr. J. Musâ€" tato was the groomsman.
