The preacher for the oceasion was Reyv. John MacNeil, of Walmer Road Bapâ€" tist Church, Toronto, whose eloquent sermons on Sunday and gifted lecture on the. Monday evening proved most inspiring. There were capacity conâ€" cregations at the Sunday services and a large attendance at the lecture and supper on Mondayâ€"a genuine double ‘‘feast‘‘ for the ‘‘inner man‘‘ in twoâ€" fold way. Rev. Geo. N. Simmons, the pastor of the Liskeard church, is well known and popular in Timmins where he has been a frequent visitor, having supervised the building of the Bapâ€" tist church here some years ago There will be general pleasure here to know that he has been successful in the ‘building and financing of a new church to replace the structure desâ€" troyed by fire some time ago. or if it handled, no doubt age done was very small,â€"probably around $25.00. A small hole was burned in the floor, but apart from this no injury was done to the fine new building. However, if the fire had not been noticed when it was, or if it had not been so promptly handled, a more serious blaze would no doubt have resulted. The North Bay Nugget last week says:â€"‘"Mrs, Chas. Roach and Mrs. J. A. Sauve, of Timmins, are visiting at the home of the latter‘s mother, Mrs. W. R. Mackey, Wyld street." OPENING OF NEW BAPTIST CHURCH AT NEW LISKEARD. On Sunday morning between six| and halfâ€"past, the firemen had a call to the new chureh, the Church of the Nativity, on Spruce street, The| church was being finished in readiness for the services to be regularly held there on Sunday. In the hurry of the| finishing work someone left an oily rag near one of the radiators after the oiling of the floor. _ The oilâ€"soaked eloth took fire and soon was burning a hole in the flooring. _ Fortunately the caretaker, Mr. P. Gauthier, noticâ€" ed smoke and promptly turned in an alarm, at the same time tackling the fire himself with pails of water. The brigade soon reached the seene and the fire: was speedily extinguished with all danger removed. The damâ€"!| FIRE IN NEW GHURCH FROME Oily Waste Left Near Radiator Causes Blaze.

The protest fee was imereased to $5.00. This was favoured because it would tend to discourage unnecessary or groundless protests being handed in as it is said had occurred in some past years. It was felt that before a team would protest with the higher fee in foree greater ecare would be taken relative to the grounds of the «L)r()test. Several minor changes were made in several other rules. One of the imâ€" portant new regulations is the one calling for an Emergenecy Commuttee to deal with any trouble that may aâ€" rise relative to the supporters, the playâ€" ers or the officials. It was felt that for the benefit of the game all round, that stringent measures should be enâ€" forced. WThe outeome of the discusâ€" sion was the adding of a clause proâ€" viding for the forming of the Emergâ€" encey Committee. The main business before the meetâ€" ing was the revision of the local rules. (On this there was full and free disâ€" cussion. The revised rules that are of special interest to the supporters of the game are those referring to the referee‘s fees, the protest fee, and the formation of the Emergeney Commutâ€" tee. A general meeting of the Poreupine District Football Club was held on Saturday evening in the council chamâ€" ber. The meeting was one of special interest to football lovers in the camp. President Duxfield was in the chair, and the following teams, comprising all that will make up the league this year, were fully represented,â€"Dome, Mcelntyre, Cornish OQneâ€"andâ€"All, Lanâ€" castrians, Thistles, Hollinger Reecreâ€" ation and Hollinger Mine. Secretary W, A. Field read the minutes of the previous meeing, which were adopted. Rules of League Revised After Disâ€" cussion. Heayy Vote Against Suggestion of Sunday Footâ€" All teams were asked to name three men each, one to act as referee and two as linesmen. _A series of lectures will be given on the work of referees, and before the season opens it is antiâ€" cipated that several firstâ€"elass men will be availalble to take the whistle. The matter of Sunday footbidll was mentioned, but the idea was voted down by a large majority. It was decided that the first game for the season will take place between the pick of the league and last year‘s winners, the Holly Rees., the proceeds to go to the Children‘s Aid Society.
