Van Rassell Bros., of Cochrane, who have just completed the work an the fine building to be occupied by the Trominion Stores on Third avenue, have been awarded the contract for another new buiding to be erected on Third avenue between Pine and Spruce streets. This new building will be a oneâ€"storey brick and tile structure for Chas. Pierce Sons. It will be a fireâ€"proof and upâ€"toâ€"date building and will be used by Chas. Pierce Sons for a hardware store. It will be on the site now used for car display purposes by the Marshallâ€"Ecclestone Co. Work on this new building will start next week and it will be rushed to compleâ€" HAVE CONTRACT FOR NEW NTORE ON THIRD AVENUE According to reports from Kirkland Lake, where a similar affdir was held last week, this year‘s Kiwanis carnival ts going to be "Bigger ‘n Better." The eause for which the money is desired is an excellent one, and is deserving the fullest support of every citizen. There will be several new attractions at this carnival, which will prove inâ€" teresting and entertaining for everyâ€" body. Commencing with a comic street parade at 7.30, there will be two highâ€" class vaudeville acts presented in the rink, and the children will be delightâ€" ed with the trained animals which wil also be there. There will be lots of fun for everybody, six nights of it, someâ€" thing doing all the time, and there will be suitable prizes for old and young. The object of this year‘s carnival is to provide funds to furnish and mainâ€" tain a room in St. Mary‘s hospitas, ‘Timmins, for underâ€"privileged childâ€" ren of school age. The initial expenâ€" diture and one year‘s maintenance will first be taken care of, and any surplus over that is to be set aside in a fund to purchase a motor ambulance for the use of the general public. In this connection, a local organization has promised to operate the ambulance without extra cost. ‘The Timmins Kiwanis Club have almost completed arrangements for their annual Kiwanis carnival, which will open at the skating rink, Timmins, on Monday evening, July 7th, and close at midnight on Saturday, July 12th. FPregramme to be Bigger and Better Than Previous Successful Event. Comic Street Parade, Vaudeâ€" ville, Etc., Among the Speâ€" clal Features of Event. RKIWANIS CARNIVAL 10 BF DURING WEEK OF JULY TTH During his residence in town Rev. Fr. Caufield has done remarkably fine work for the boys of his church by his leadership in encouraging athletics and wholesome sports. The Holy Name Club, directed by Fr. Caufield has atâ€" tracted large numbers of lads and has been of great benefit to them by its encouragement of true sport and betâ€" ter manhood. In the T.B.A.A. sports the Holy Name Club has taken an acâ€" tive part and has added to the success of the plans here for sports for boys. The personal interest of Rev. Fr. Cauâ€" field has been of unusual value. One of the latest activities of the Holy Name Club has been in the line of wrestling. Constable J. Laviolette, who has had a wide experience in the l'me‘ of wrestling has been giving his serâ€". vices to coaching the boys in this form | of good sport and the boys have been . taking to the game in great fashion.. Some of the lads show unusual proâ€" ; mise. and it is beiieved that by next| fall there will be anumber of them able| to give a remarkably good account of | themselves in the wrestling line. It is | thought that at the next Turkey Stag there will be enough of the boys expr t‘ in wrestling to put up four or five firstâ€"| class bouts. This would ‘be another, real feature for Lap‘s famous Turkey: Stag. The classes in wrestling are be- ing conducted every Tuesday and Friâ€"| day night in the parish hall of the | Church of the Nativity. Mr. Laviolette is teaching the boys the rudiments of the game and the boys are enjoying it. Under the skiled direction of Mr. Laviolette there is no chance of the boys injuring themselves. Some 0: them show promise of becoming expert indeed at the wrestling game, but wheâ€" ther they succeed in this or not, all the lads will be the better for the phyâ€" sical improvement assured by the sport, and the beneficial influence of the club.

There was a large | crowd and the event was much enjoyed by all present. The best of music, and lots of it, was supplied by Tommy Stenhens and his orchestra, and all other features of the occasion were up ) to the same high standards. On Sunday four cars were in a line near the second hill from here. The first car suddenly stopped without warning; the others had to quickly folâ€" low suit and it is thought that the brakes of the fourth car were not workâ€" ing as they should for it bumped into the third car in the line causing conâ€" siderable damage to both that car and itself. The driver of the fourth carâ€" woman was rather severely cut above one eye but first aid treatment enabled her to proceed on her way. On Saturday night last a Nash motor car from Cochrane was being driven towards Timmins. The driver was unfamiliar with the road from South Porcupine to Timmins and when he reached the Rea hill, put on full steam to make the grade but did not realize how., curved the road was, so drove directly into the rocks. The front axle and two wheels were broken and the car is a complete wreck. It was brought into the South End Garage and when the owner found out the conâ€" dition it was in he purchased another car to go back to Cochrane, while the one he started out in will add to some Jjunk pile. He feels he was lucky to escape without injury. South Forcupine, June 2%5th. 1930 Special to The Advance. Driver Fortunately Escaped Injury. Another Accident on Hill Near South Porcupine on Sunday.

Bagley, after spending several months in Timâ€" mins visiting her daughter, Mrs. W. Chenier, and her son, T. J. Crawford. of Troquois Falls. It is understood that both parties are to bring in campaign managers for the camrhign. The organizer for the Conservatives is expected to arrive this week. The Mountjoy Conservative Associaâ€" tion have had their committee rooms open for some days. They have securâ€" ed the S. McChesney office building for their committee rooms. Geo. Morâ€" ris, secretary of the association, is in charge of the committee rooms of the Mountjoy association. The Liberal party last week opened its committee rcoms in the Goldfields hotel building annex on Fourth aveâ€" nue. Both parties are busy looking after the voters‘ lists and otherwise preparâ€" ing for the fray. Both parties now have their comâ€" mittee rooms ortzned, and signs are beginning to show that there is an election in progress, though neither side is yet fully organized for the battle. Both candidates, Jos. A. Braâ€" dette, Liberal, and Dave Chenier, Conâ€" servative, have been in town in the past week, getting their respective organizaâ€" tions under way. The Conservative committee rooms are in the offices formerly occupied by the Homer L. Gibson Co. as a stock brckerage market. The large rooms answer the purpose of committee rooms very well. Another matter that was before the meeting was the question of the roads in the North. In the efforts that he has made to have proper expenditures made for the betterment of the Ferguâ€" son highway and for settlers‘ roads the board of trade is heartily behind A. F. Kenning, M.L.A., and sincerely hopes that he may be successful in securing the necessary grants so that the highway and the settlers roads may be completed. COMMITTEE ROOMS NOW OPENED BY BOTH PARTIES It was underst that the reason the Government held back from buildâ€" ing the road was because it was feared that there would be an operating loss and the Hollinger did not feel that it should contribute to offset this. The paragrajpth in the Hollinger report would show that the Hollinger was prepared to "contribute materially" to offset any coperating loss, and the board of trade felt that the Government accordingly should explain its present attitude. A letter is being sent to the Government enquiring as to the present attitude, in view of the public statement by the Hollinger, and the importance of the railway extension to this district and to the North. At a meeting last Friday of the exeâ€" cutive of the Timmins board of trade there were two questions that came in for special consideration. One was the matter of the propased extension of the T. N. O. Railway to Kamiskotia. |\It was pointed out that rothing had lbeen done in regard to the building c> this Aailway extension and recently ithere was not even talk about it. In view oQf statements in the annual report of the Hollinger Consolidated Mines, Limited, as read at the annual meeting some weeks ago, it was felt that some anncouncement or reply lshould be forthcoming from the Govâ€" ‘ernment in the matter. President N. A. Timmins in the annual Hollinger reâ€" |port had the following paragraph:â€" ]“Pending. a decision of the Ontaric | Government to extend the Timmins branch of the Temiskaming and Norâ€" thern Ontario Railway to the Kamisâ€" kotia Mstrict, a distance of about 17 miles, work on your KamiskOotia proâ€" !perty has been shut down throughout the entire year. Your directors pointâ€" ed out last year that the building 01; the railway would not only serve a proâ€"| mising new mining field, but should prove of value as a colonization road. 722y have shown faith in your properâ€" y by the expenditure to date of alâ€" noz: $400,000; they are willing to ex-l pend at least $500,000 in the erection | and equipment of a concentrator, and | they are even prepared to go farther, and have offered to make.â€"a substantla-l contribution towards meeting any opâ€" erating loss on the proposed branch line, nothwithstanding their contenâ€" tion that the extension of the railway is entirely a Government enterprise, the cost of which should be borne by! the Government, as has ben done in | the cass of other extensions. The Hollinger Company is interested in only a comparatively small portion of the vast area that will be opened up by ' the proposed railway, and your direcâ€" tors feel that they have gone as far as should reasonably be expected in offerâ€" inz to assume a special Oobligation in connection with an enterprise for the benefit of the entire Province."

F. Brigham, general manager of Holiinger Consoliâ€" dated Mines, The Northern Miner learns that material passing through the mill is a little higher than average grade at this time and that profits reâ€" flect this condition. Some economies are being effected at t time through the stopping of all exporation work on the bottom levels. Lest the action should be misinterpreted, Mr. Brigham explains that work has been stopped there to permit of a close examination and a thorough study of conditions by Dr. L. C. Gratton, eminent geologist of Harvard University, preliminary to his preparation of a report. It is intiâ€" mated that this report will not be long in appearing and that it will prove to be of absorbing interest to shareholders. It will be recalled that Dr. Gratton a diagnostician of sick mines was called in about 15 months ago to study the property. Mr. Brigham states that the current dividend rate is being earned comfortably. Recent Government reâ€" ports have indicated that production from Hollinger had materially increasâ€" ed, and it is interesting to know that the enlarged output was not secured at the expense of reserves. Share- holders of Hollinger can look forward to an early official statement on pro-\ duction, ore position and mine condiâ€". tion. It is expected that this will apâ€" pear in midâ€"August, The Northern Miner learns." ! The following despatch was received this morning over the A. E. Moysey Co., private wire and is from the curâ€" rent issue of The Northern Miner:â€" Hollinger Ore Better Than Average Grade Now Dave Chenier, Conservative candidate for this riding in the Dominion election campaign now under way, was a visiâ€" tor to Timmins this week, looking over the situation and getting his organizaâ€" tion completed for the battle. Mr. Chenier has already visited practically all parts of the riding and has met with a â€"most encouraging reception wherever he has been. He was up along the Transcontinental and at Anâ€" sonville before coming here and he found the majority of people sick of the present Governmentfand apyurently deâ€" sirous of a change in administration. Mr. Chenier was particularly well reâ€" ceived at Kapuskasing, Cochrane, Iroâ€" quois Falls and other places visited, in these places. Mr. Chenier is conâ€" fident that he can and will poll a big vote in the larger centres and hold his own well in the smaller places. Mr. Chenier made a good impression here and is securing general support in his candidature. Has High Hopes of Win In Federal Election Newsboys Had Big Time at the Lottridge Shows pine AMtbpante Fred W. McCoy and wife, of Chicago, Illinois, motored to Timmins last week to visit Mr. McCoy‘s brother, W. J. Mcâ€" Coy, 3 Elm street, south. They were accompanied from Torcnto by Mr. Mcâ€" Coy‘s father, Wm. McCoy, who also visited here for a few days with his sons. Fred W. McCoy is one of ths superintendents for the W. B. Conkey printing firm, of Hammond, Indiana, one of the four largest printing estabâ€" lishments in the world. He was on his first trip to this part of the North, though he was one of the oldâ€"timers of the Latchford area many years ago. The motorists found the Ferguson highway difficult to navigate especially at three or four stretches, but having a large car with powerful engine were able to get through. They reached here Wednesday evening, leaving again during the weekâ€"end. During their stay in town they found much to inâ€" terest and were impressed by the proâ€" gress and upâ€"toâ€"date features of Timâ€" mins. During their stay here they were also on hand for the observance of W. J. McCoy‘s birthday on Thursday, the family gathering having a particuâ€" larly pleasant time for the occasion. P. Dougall, general manager of the Pioneer Stores in this immediate disâ€" trict, left last week on a trip to the Old Country. He will be gone about two months, and Mrs. Dougall and family are expected back with him on It may be of interest to note that while all applications for pensions are dealt with as expeditiously as possible, there are occasions when the apolicaâ€" tions have to be held up while further necessary information is secured. Some of the applications are far from completed when received and have to be returned for essential information. Also it is impossible to deal with apâ€" plications always as soon as received as this would mean daily sessions of the board which is impractical particularâ€" ly as there is no remuneration for the work. However, there is no loss to apâ€" plicants whose pensions are granted as the piension is dated to start the day after received by the district board. MOTORED FROM CHICAGO TO TVMMINS LAST W It was believed that after the first few months the applications would deâ€" crease very materially, but this has not proved to be the case as completely as thought likely. There are always cases where men reach the age of seventy years and so are eligible for pensions, while in other cases men or women who were getting along without the penâ€" sion find it necessary on account of the effects of increasing age and infirmity. On the other hand, there are not so many removals by death. Since the first pension was granted in this disâ€". trict there have been only three deathsi of old age pensioners reported up to June 18th. I ter, Porguis Junction, Strickland, Sudâ€" bury, Swastika, Sandy Falls, Schumaâ€" cher, Smooth Roeck Falls, South Porcuâ€" pine, Timmins, Val Rita, Val Gagne, Whitby. In the case of the appliâ€" cints marked .as from Timmins, it simply means that they are residents of the district nearby whose post office address is Timmins. The town of Timmins is the only place in the Cochâ€" rane district where they have a penâ€" sion board of their cwn, the members of the town council acting in that ca~ pacity with I. E. Dunn as secretary. All living in town should apply to the Timmins board in cases where the old age pension is desired, but other apâ€" plications in the district go to the disâ€" trict board. Some of the applications as shown by the list above come from places outside the district but these are only cases where the applicants are in hospitals or other institutions but are considered as regular residentits of the district. The District of Cochâ€" rane in the case of the old age penâ€" sions takes in from Kirkland Lake and Swastika to James Bay and from the Quebec boundary on the east to Hearst on the west. ‘he Old Age Pensions Board for the District of Cochrane (apart from the town of Timmins) met at Iroquois Falls on Monday evening, the chairman, G. A. Macdonald, ocf Timmins, and the secretary, F. K. Ebbitt, of Iroquois Falis, being present. The other member of the board, R. J. Carter, of Kirkland Lake, was unable to be present, the roads being uncertain for motor traâ€" vel. _A number of applications were dealt with on Monday evening, bringâ€" ing the total number of applications dealt with to date to 184. The appliâ€" cations are from all sections of the district, and include no less than 43 places. These places include:â€"Ansonâ€" vills, Anthony, Cornwall, Cochrane, Clute, Cote Siding, Connaught, Copupell, Driftwood, Devonshire, Dane, Fauquier, Grenier, Hearst, Hallewood, Hoyile, Kingston, Iroquois Falls, Kapuskasing, Kirkland Lake, Larocque, Larder Lake, Low Bush, Matheson, Monteith, Matâ€" tics, Mimico, Montrock, Moonbeam, North Bay, Norembega, Ottawa, Potâ€" Three of the Pensioners Have Died Applications Come from 49 Differâ€" ent Places; in the District.

It was first intended to follow the lead of other years and have an evening sesâ€" sion, but this was found to be impracâ€" tical, as the stores will be open on Monâ€" day evening, the following day being a National holiday. . Accordingly the luncheon . next week wm be nhelg as usual at the noon hour. â€" At the Kiwanis meeting on Monday several matters of importance were dealt with, one of these being the deâ€" finite decision on the dates for the anâ€" nua@l Kiwanis carnival this year. It was decided to hold the event in tne skating rink from Monday evening, July 7th, to Saturday evening. July 12th. The general opinicon of the membeérs was that the carnival this year would be even more successful and enjoyable than the> very satisfactory carnival last year. President Karl Eyre was at the carnival at Kirklan.s Lake this summer and he told th=« members of the club it was a very as~ tractive event. The carnival at Timâ€" mins is under the same management as the one held at Kirkland La‘:> ~nd Mr. Allen, the director, promises that the Timmins carnival will equal or exâ€" ceed the success of the Kirkland Lake one. The vaudeville sketches and other specialties and novelties, Presiâ€" dent Karl Eyre said, were particularly attractive and would be sure to piease all herge,. The regular luncheon of the Timmins Kiwanis Club was held on Monday at thse Empire hotel with President Karl Eyre in the chair. The speaker for the day was Dr. S. R. Harrison, but he was called away on a case just before the luncheon and the address accordingly had to be deferred to a later date. The visitor for the day was Mr. Wal‘ace, o> Estevan, Sask. Mr. Wallace is a memâ€" ber of the Rotary Club at Estevan, and he favoured the Timmins club with a very interesting talk on the communtiâ€" ty service work of the Rotarians, their efforts being along the same general lines as the Kiwanis.
