Pl‘t Colborne and South Porcupine Tie Second Time Port Colborne had a margin on the second period play and their scoring of the lone marker was a fitting reâ€" ward for their fine efforts. The inâ€" termediate champions got a break early in the section when Spence drew a penalty, but Thornton was equal to the occasion and cleared the peppy offerings fronm the opposing attackers who failed to get in for their shots. The great moment came when the period was five minutes old and the teams were at full strength. After the Lakesiders ‘had made several good offensive attempts, Mountain finally found himself clean «inside after a combination play with Nixon and Cuthbert and placed the dise= careâ€" FThough the checking was very closé in ‘the opening period, both teams worked into ‘good scoring positions eccasionally. The * Porkies‘‘ ‘had more elose in chances than the intermediate ehampions. Moore was often called upon to exhibit ‘his wares, and the Port goaler acquitted ‘himself nobly. The Porcupine defence, led by Murray, did not hesitate to pass out the odd bodycheck. Kilpatrick of the Ports was likewise prominent in this resâ€" Nixon looked like a Port Colborne scorer on one occasion, ‘but missed the cage just before the gong. Gagâ€" non missed the open net when the ‘‘[Porkies‘‘ were in a scrimmage near the Port citadel with Moore out of his cage. pect. _ Thornton in goal for Poreuâ€" pine made many saves on likelyâ€"lookâ€" ing long shots in the opening stanza. Spence was the most dangerous Porâ€" ecupine attacker in the opening frame, working in close severa® times by clever stickhandling tactics." For Port Colborne, Nixon was outâ€" standing. His speed and stickhandâ€" ling ability were among ‘the game‘s leading features. â€" Kilpatrick on deâ€" fence, turned in a strong performance. The. veteran held up well throughout the 90â€"minute grind. â€" He was also very prominent on his team‘s ‘offenâ€" sive,. starting many lone_rushes and giving timely passes to his forwards. Mountain, at right wing was also efâ€" fective, while Cuthbert, at centre, stood up especially well when the goâ€" ing was heaviest. $ Back on the defence, Murray was the bump king of the evening, handâ€" ing out many telling body jolts ‘to opposing rushers. Cain his mate was also conspicuous in handing out the slowingâ€"up. medicine and contributed some good offensive offerings. The crowd was strongly proâ€"Colâ€" borne but as the game progressed the agpresive little Northerners made themselves solid with the multitude, and many a neutral glad ‘hand came to the help of the little band of thirty Porcupine followers. The ‘‘Porkies‘‘ ‘had a little advanâ€" tage in speed. Spence at left wing being about ‘the shiftiest number on the programme. â€" Jemmett and Mcâ€" Hutchion were both aggressive and hard-workmg forwards. The former ‘éarrying off the ‘hookâ€"check thonours a la FPrank Nighbour. The teams played a 2 to 2 draw in the first game at Toronto Saturday night. Toâ€"night‘s game found two teams giving their all for 90 minutes. ‘The brand of ‘hockey exhibited was of good intermediate calibre, ind anyâ€" thmg the teams lacked in finish they made up for by hard work, and the loud din kept up by the multl‘bude gave the episode a bigâ€"league aspect. Close calls on goal were many, and the crowd was on its toes often when it looked like one team or the other would net that much needed odd goal.

The proâ€" vincial police at Englehart have also laid a charge against Copping of ohâ€" taining lodging by false pretences and passing a cheque for which he had no funds in the bank. Adopting a doâ€"orâ€"die policy by throwing five men upon the attack when play opened in the third period, the ‘Porkies‘‘ came through and tied | the score. : The tying goal came after two minutes‘ play, when with the Northerners swarming around the Lakeside goal, Jemmett took a pass from Spence and drilled one past Moore. rom close range. Even with the score deadlocked the ‘‘Porkies‘‘ kept : up their fiveman attack until fast breakaways ‘by the Ports, led by Nixon and Kilpatrick, forced them to pay more attention to the defengive. ALLEGED ‘‘MINING GENIUS‘‘ ARRESTED AT TORONTO. Two fresh cases of smallpox were reported this week at Cobalt. P. J. McDonald and ‘Nick Yantha are the patients, both these men being duly quarantined. As MceDonald has not been away from Cobalt recently there is considerable question as to how he contracted the disease. Yantha recently visited both the Poreupirse and the Kirkland Lake camps. _ As there are no known cases of smallpox in the Poreupine camp at the present time, it is surmised that the disease was contracted at «Kirkland Lake where there have been cases recently of smallpox. The caseagainst Gregori Oretorie in connection with the theft of goods from T. N.0O.ecars last fall will come before Judge Caron at Cochrane on Friday of this week. Deputy Chief W. W.
