Harry Jones, who was Dick‘s partâ€" ner, underwent considerable hardship during the trip, according to word reaching here from Gowganda. Jones had arranged to meet Dick at Number 4 post of the claims on which they were blazing lines, and when Dick did not show up Jones went to Number cne post. Indications there were that Dick had reached that point, but there was no further trace of him. Jones lit a fire to attract his attention; made a birch bark horn and shouted and searched for him, but without success. Subsequently, he went to their camp two miles away to find that most of the food left in the canoce, had become waterâ€"logged in their absence. Leavâ€" ing most of the food that stil: was eatâ€" able for Dick should he turn up, Jones suffering from hunger, kept up the search, but eventually he was found by timber cruisers in an exhausted conâ€" dition and taken to Gowganda. Sergeant Frank Gardiner, in charge of the district in the absence on holiâ€" days of Inspector Moore, has been in communication with the Miller Lakeâ€" O‘Brien Mine at Gowganda regarding Dick, and also talked with Constable Devlin â€"at Englehart about Finnerty, but the only information forthcoming was that the search for both men is proceeding. Prospectors spoken to here are agreed that conditions in the bush are not favourable. The undergrowth is exceptionally thick they state, and one experienced man said that it was impossible to see more than 15 feet ahead. Added to this the weather has been bad, rain having been frequent and fairly heavy so that the swamps are filled, thus adding to the difficulties of travel. Sixteen men are searching for ick in the North Williams townâ€" ship section, H. G. Kennedy, manager of the Miller Lakeâ€"O‘Brien Mine, told Sergeant Gardiner toâ€"day, while two, and possibly three smaller parties, are hunting for Finnerty in the Flavelle township area. | At noon toâ€"day provincial police headquarters kere were without further word of the two men, John Dick and John Finnerty, reported missing in difâ€" ferent parts of the Northern bush. "Comparisons are no doubt odious, nevertheless when it is considered that Vipond ranks eighth among the Onâ€" tario gold producers and is steadily piling up profits, the stock even though it has experienced a bulge within the past week seems out of the line with others of the smaller producers whose production is considerably less and whose prospects are no brighter." Prospectors Thought to be Lost in the Bush A despatch from Cobalt to the North Bay Nugget this week says:â€" "Although Vipond commenced the fiscal years just closed with an estiâ€" mated ore reserve of 170,000 tons at $8.23 grade ore, equal to something over a year‘s supply, unofficial advices state that as the result of new ore developâ€" ments this year, there is now about two years‘ ore ahead, with bright prospects of this amount being further increased as exploration and development proâ€" gresses. "From a production standpoint, Viâ€" pond has been doing a whole lot better than recent market quotations for the stock would indicate. Output during the first six montlhs of the current year, according to government returns was $322,8325, a rate of well over $50,000 monthly. Latterly production has been stepped up to around $60,000 per month. Since no dividends are being paid, a substantial amount is being added to the previous surplus and it is rumoured that at the end of the fiscal year, July 3lst, current assets stood at $400,000. "Recent reports from Vipond, with particular reference to the new ore body being developed at the 700â€"ft. level, reflect material improvement in the outlook for the property. Some time ago the opening of this ore body was reported as showing a length of 40 feet, with $8 values over a sixâ€"foot width. Later reports indicate that the vein has now been opened for a length of 170 feet, that side slashing has reâ€" vealed a width of 17 feet and that the grade has increased considerably. "Ancother interesting, though as yet less fruitful piece of work is the long crosscut being pushed out to the southâ€" west into Thompsonâ€"Krist ground, at the 800â€"ft. level. To date nothing of material importance in the way of new ore intersections has been reported from this work. The drive has still several hundred feet to go before exâ€" hausting the possibilities of the ground being explored. GONOITIONS BHTTER AT VPOND GONaQCLIOATE The following is from the last issue of Gibson‘s Fortnightly Review, and refers to progress at the Vipond Mine: Important New Ore Being Developed at the Vipond, Adding to Previous Ore Reserves There, THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO TOO LATE FOR CLASSIFICATION _ Friday afternoon last at 3o‘clock Mr. Jos. Wojciechowski, 217 Pine street south, left home for a little duckâ€"shootâ€" ing. He intended to be home again to go on shift at 11 o‘clock at the Mcâ€" Intyre Mine where he is a cagetender. When he failed to come home that evening before midnight some alarm was felt by his family, and when mornâ€" ing came and he still failed to appear the alarm was increased, as it was felt that he must either have met with some accident or became lost in the bush. Rev. Fr. Savinski reported the matter to the town police, and Saturâ€" day morning Chief McLauchlan startâ€" ed to organize search parties. Friday night was cold, stormy and wet,â€"the worst sort of an occasion to spend a nig‘ht, unprepared, in the bush. It was thought that Mr. Wojciechowski had gone out to the Wealthy Lake arca and the chief sought for men who were well acquainted with that section. It was suggested that he enlist the serâ€" vices of the Boy Scouts, and it was found on enquiry that both the Timâ€" mins and Schumacher Bay Scouts were well accustomed to the bush and would make an ideal search party. In addiâ€" tion, the Timmins Boy Scouts were particularly well acquainted with the Wealthy Lake area, having visited there on several occasions. When request was made for the help of the Boy Scouts the response was very prompt. soon after the suggestion was made there were about thirty Boy Scouts from Timmins and Schumacher gathâ€" ered at the town hall here, with their Scoutmasters and other officers, and all ready for effective search work. They came provided with lunches and dressed and equipped just right for bush search work. In the meantime it had been learned that the missing man had been at Miller Lake, past Dalton‘s farm, instead of in the Wealthy Lake area. This, however, did not stop the usefulness of the Boy Scouts, who were also acquainted with the Miller Lake area and knew just how to conduct a search there. They were all lined up ready for the trip, and eager to be of service, when word came that Mr. Wojâ€" ciechowski had safely reached home. This information was confirmed by Chief McLauchlan, and the Boy Scouts Jos. Wojciechowski Loses Way While Duckâ€"Shooting and Spends Night in Bush. Weather Very Wet and Cold. _ Boy Scouts Ready to Start the Search When Man Reâ€" turns Home Himself. _ Incident Proves One Valuable Feature of Boy Scout Work. Boy Scouts All Ready Here:tg Search for Man Lost in Bush quietly disbanded. The incident, howâ€" ever, proved the value of the Boy Scout work here. In a very short time, there was a party of over 30 competent young fellows, all ready for the search work. The boys were well equipped for the work, had an intimate knowledge of the areas concerned, and a good working knowledge of how to go about the search. In addition they _wert anxious | to be of service; all this making a fine icombmatlon Mr. Austin Neame, of | Schumacher, sent out about a‘dozen of | the best of his Schumacher scouts. Mr. The fact that the missing man arâ€" rived home safely made the preparaâ€" tions unnecessary further, but did not alter the fact of the usefulness of the Boy Scouts for work of this kind. Mr. Wojciechowski arrived home about one o‘clock Saturday afternoon, word preâ€" viously reaching his home that he was safe at D. Nora‘s dairy farm about two miles from town. Mr. Wojciechowski lost his bearings Friday just at dusk while he was at Miller Lake. He was unable to find his way to any shelter and had to spend the night in the bush with the air very cold and the rain coming down at times. He had a tryâ€" ing experience and suffered from the cold and exposure but by keepng himâ€" self warm by exercise he was able to pull through without serious injury. His matches got wet so he was not able to build a fire. The discomfort of going so long without food was also C. R. Cushing, troop leader; E. Ansara., patrol leader; L. Fournier, patrol leadâ€" er. The Scouts all skilled in bush craft, gathered here included:â€"H. Arâ€" mitage, J. Riley, H. Fournier, M. Eveâ€" rard, H. Ostrosser, A. Leduc, E. Lacy, H. Fox, N. Roy, W. Cowan, D. Ansara, and Ernie Lacy. D. McLauchlan and other Boy Scouts also tendered their services for the day to help in the good work. The Scouts were going out unâ€" der Scoutmaster Wright who was planâ€" ning a thorough and exhaustive search in conjunction with Offiters W. Parcher and W. Orr of the town police. D. E. Keeley, of Schumacher, phoned the chief that he was organizing a party of men to aid in the search. The Timmins Boy Scouts were quickly musâ€" tered all ready for action. They were in charge of A. Wright, scoutmaster; a fine of $7.00, with costs. Another disorderly case was remanded for a week. A young man on a charge of theft was allowed to go on suspended sentence after he had been duly warnâ€" ed by Magistrate Atkinson as to the inevitable results that would ensue unâ€" less the lad changed his mode of livâ€" ing. Another young man paid $25.00 and costs forspeeding in an automoâ€" bile, while he was also given a second fine of $10.00 and costs for neglecting to see to the transfer of a driving permit A charge of assault arising from some rouble in Schumacher was withdrawn by the local police on account of the papers in the case not been along the usual lines. This was due to the fact that the local police had understood that the alleged offence had occurred in Timmins, while it transpired in the preéliminary evidence that it actually took nplace in the township of Tisdale and so the case should have been tried at South Porcupine. It is undertood that this assault ease will be reâ€"laid, the case this time to be tried in the court for the township of Tisdale, held at South Porcupine. According to a despatch this week from Cobalt, Coroner E. R. Tucker, of Cochrane, is to hold an enquiry at an early date into the death of William Forget, a young married man who resided in Kapuskasing, and whose badly mutilated body was found on the C. N. R. tracks near Lowther, 30 miles west of Kapuskasing, recently. Inforâ€" mation in the hands of the police inâ€" dicates that Forget, with a number of other men, had been drinking at Lowâ€" ther, and it is said a fight resulted. Subsequently, Forget was killed by a train, probably the westbound Contiâ€" nental Limited, although there were no eyeâ€"witnesses of the tragedy and neither of the men on the locomotive saw him. His body was found the next morning on the tracks. Provinâ€" cilal Constable Franks has been inâ€" vestigating. an unpleasant feature. On Saturday morning, after some difficulty, he made his way eventually to Nora‘s farm, where a piping hot meal and generous care soon changed the outlook for him. INQUEST TO BE HELD INTO DEATH OF WILLIAM FORGET The police court docket this week was not a very heavy one and none of the cases were very important. Magâ€" istrate Atkinson assessed each of four men the sum of $10.00 and costs each for being intoxicated in a public place. A man accused of being disorderly paid Docket at Police Court Not Heavy One This Week
