PAID CIRCULATION LAST WEEK 2944 2 Sections â€" 16 Pages the beautiful â€"prizes of last For nearly a week trains on the T. N. O. railway have been six arn:l seven hours late, and more, and trafâ€" fic for several days was seriously inâ€" terfered with on the Ferguson highway through bad washouts of raiiway bed and road\va‘}' from floods caused by the heavy rains. At Dickson‘s Creek near Haileybury the floods swept out the railway emhbankment for a distance of perhaps 200 feet and for a depth of maybe 50 feet leaving only the tracks in place. The Ferguson highway esâ€" caped with Jess damage but a hole was torn in the roadway alongside a culvert leaving an impassable hole and the bare culvert,. Rain for days was folâ€" lowed by a regular downpour on Friday that swept all before it. Train service When the roadway was washed away last week a large number from this part of the North were on their way by motor to the south. They were of course tied up for a day or two by the accident, but later. were able to resume their journey through the temporary repairs made. is being maintained by transferring passengers, baggage and express by bus and truck from Haileybury to New Liskeard, trains from the south and north respectively being able to get as far as these places. A temporary bridge has been constructed over the higrhway and the resumption of the use of the road made possible. In the meantime the permanent repair of the roadway is being speeded along. All the men available in the nearby towns are hard at work repairing the damage the railway, work being carried through both night and day. The youngsters and others will be pleased to know that it is expected to have the repairs to the railroad embankment sufficiently advanced to allow the cirâ€" cus train to pass through toâ€"day. Owing to the frequent rains this summer and the cold evenings, the reâ€" gular weskly open air band concerts by the Timmins Citizens‘ Band have had to be postponed several times. After the church services on Sunday evening, however, Bandmaster A. Wilford had his men at the stand on the flark on Spruce strset near the station, and a pleasing concert of band music was provided. Despite the touch of cold in the air the band played for over an nour, one selection quickly following another, with practically no waits beâ€" twesen selections. Although the evenâ€" ing was not an ideal one, there was geod crowd gathered for the occasion and the musicâ€"lovers enjoyed the many numbers provided. It is the intention to hold the open air concerts weekly through the balance of the summer, weather, of course, permitting. In the last week or two the band has been strengthened by the addition of severâ€" al new members and promises to be in specially good form for the open air eoncert: this season. In the course of a few days it is hoped to have repairs so far advanced to the railway bed and the roadway that traffic may be resumed as usual. In the Temiskaming Baseball League series the McIntyre and Kirkland Lake teams play an important game here on Wednesday afternoon of next week, July 9th, commencing at 5.15 sharp. This game will decide the leadership of the first half and so will be even First Open Air Band Concert Sunday Night McINTYRE AND KIRKLAND IN IMPORTANT GAME JULY 9 more keenly contested than usual. It will be sprceially worth seeing and all ball fans should be out to cheer the Mcintyre team on to victory for this camp. WASHOUTS ON RAll\w AND ROAD NFAR RAILEYB Traffic on Railway Sceriously Interfered With. . Heavy Rains Do Much Damage. Portiscns of Boad and Railway Swept Away by Water. ‘oft, of Sault Ste. a visitor to Timmins Fire Chief A. Borland introduced the speaker of the day, R. C. Wood, of Toâ€" ronto. The subject of Mr. Wood‘s adâ€" dress was "Resuscitation" and he not only made the art clear and underâ€" standable but he gave it an interest that caught the attention of all. He stressed the importance of such an art in dealing with the numerous accidents and incidents that occcur. To be powâ€" erless to aid an unfortunate friend or other human being who was the vicâ€" tim of drowning, gas, electric shock, etc.. was a heartrending experience, while there was no joy like that folâ€" lowing the successful effort to bring back life in such cases. Anyone could practise artificial respiration. Mr. Wood hoped to see the day when it would be taught in the schools. Toâ€" day there were more laymen than docâ€" tors expert at resuscitation. The need for its use is very apparent. The speaker defined the art as ‘"‘to make the patient breathe artificially when he had ceased to breathe naturally. In clear and simple terms Mr. Wood desâ€" cribed resuscitation and what it does. He divided the body into two parts, the upper and lower, separated by the diaâ€" phram. The upper part contains the vital organs, the heart and lungs, and the lower, the stomach, liver, spleen, etc., the organs mentioned being the ones concerned chiefly in the matter of resuscitation. Mr. Wood explained the condition that resulted in each case from Gdrowning, gassing, electric shock, choking, etc., an dhe showed how resuscitation would help! to remedy the condition. Time was the essential eclement in such accidents, and not a moment should be lost. It was right to send for a doctor, but in the meantime there was opportunity to save life. Water bottles, blankets, ammonia were all helpful, but resuscitation work should take first place. Mr. Wood outâ€" lined the procedure to assure success. The patient should be placed on his stcmach with the ‘head resting on one arm and the other arm extended. The cperator should then get astride the patient, kneeling with knees exactly opposite the patient‘s hip:. The two floating ribs should be locateéd in the lower part of the back and by the use cf the hands these resilient ribs might be turned into a sort of pump to reâ€" store respiration. The arms should be kept rigid and the pumping motion done by the swaying of the body. The heels of the hands should rest on the back where the floating ribs are locatâ€" ed, with the fingers not used. The thumbs should be closed. "Swing not less then twelves times to the minute, and not more than fifteen, in a steady, even thythmic motion," said Mr. Wood. He advised counting three on the down pressure and two on the release. This can be kept up for hours with ilttle fatigue, he said. He urged strongly that no matter what doctors might say about life being extinct effort should be continued for at least three hours. The ‘"pumping" as described presses the liver and stomach against the diaâ€" phram, the diaphram presses against the heart and the heart moves, while the heart presses against the lungs, thus inducing something like the naâ€" tural process. Mr. Wood suggested that the use of the pulmotor was often dangerous having a tendency to deâ€" stroy the lungs after fifteen minutes of use. There was nothing like the skilled use of the hands, he said. Mr. Wood urged all to practice the simple art of resuscitation at home so as to be ready in case of emergency. There was no greater joy in life than to save the life of some one, said Mr. Wood in Brady, with W. H. Wiison at the piano. Kiwanian C. G. Keddie made referâ€" ence to the golf between the Hollinger 2nd the Kiwanis and arrangements wore made for the game this week. Prosident Karl Eyre made brief but clear explanation of the ticketâ€"selling campaign for the Kiwanis carnival, deâ€" tailing the attractive list of prizes conâ€" cerned. The members of the Kiwanis are to secure the tickets from G. N. Ross. Thoere was a large attendance at ths Kiwanis Club luncheon on Monday and all present were delighted to be there for they felt they received a speâ€" cial measure of helplful information as well as a most interesting time. The speaker for the day was R. C. Wood, of Toronto, of the firm of R. C. Wood Co., real estate and ‘business brokers. Mr. Wood spoke on resuscitation, on the art of inducing artificial breathing to restore life after certain forms of accident, and it is no play on words to say that his effective and intensely interesting address was listened to with almost breathless interest. Other visiâ€" tors for the day included W. G. A. Wood, formerly of South Porcupine, but now of Toronto, who was given arty weleme back here. A special ature of the occasion was the talentâ€" d violin playing of Michael Rose, the gifted violinist who recently took over the Birrell Bell studio hetre. The first selection by Mr. Rose met with most enthusiastic encore and he was equally popular in his responding number. Community singing was led by J. D. IMPLIGHT DIREGTIONS FOR _ WORK OF RESUSGIIT Kiwanis Club Members Incpired and Impressed by Address by R. C. Wood, Toronto, on the Art of Artificial BRreathing to Reâ€" vive Life, TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 3RD, 1930 In the meanume ue waiting taxi driver heard the shots in the house and believing there was serious trouble afoot, hurriedly drove to Kirkland Lake and secured the help of the police, driving the officers back to the scene of the shooting. The officers placed all concerned in the case under arrest as material witnesses, most of them being later allowed out on bond. Elio Meloche and his common law wife are dead and Emile Groulx is 'm: the hospital at Kirkland Lake as a result of a shooting affray at a sHack | about mile and a half from Kirkâ€"| land Lake at an early hour on Tuesday | morning of this week. So far as thei story can be learned, the shooting reâ€" sulted from a jealous quarrel between' Meloche and his common law wife.! Mrs. Meloche, as she was known in Timmins where she lived for a couple of years, coming here from South Porâ€" | cupine, had been in Kirkland Lake for | some days prior to the tragedy. On Monday Elio Meloche had Alfred Therâ€" rien, taxi driver here, take him by car | to Kirkland Lake. They arrived there | shortly after one o‘clock Tuesday mornâ€" | ing, and after lunch Meloche inâ€" structed Therrien to drive him to a shack a mile and a half from the town. He told Therrien to.turn his car and wait outside for him. Itâ€"appears that Meloche found his wife in the shack where a party seemed to be in progress. He and his wife quarrelled and after heated words he drew â€"a gun and shot her through the heart, the woman dyâ€" ing almost instantly. He is then said to have turned the gun on a man named Lesroches. Emile Groulx ap-' parently tried to get the gun away from Meloche and in the proceedings was shot through the hand the bullet also passing into his jaw. Meloche then turned the gun on himself. The first bullet only ploughed through the foreâ€" head but a second shot went through his head. He died in the hospital at 7 pm. that evening. Groulx is in the Kirkland Lake hospital with the best chances for recovery his injuries not| being so serious as might be expected.l He is a young man of about 21 or 22 years of age, powerfully built. All concerned in the tragedy, accordâ€" ing to the reports, were present resiâ€" dents or former residents of Timmins and all were wellâ€"known to the police here. Mel§@che and his wife came to Timmins about two years ago. Mcloche was about 32 years of age. Both he and his wife were wellâ€"known in cerâ€" tain circles in town, but not to the genâ€" eral public. Shower in Honour of Miss Wynifred Saurio! A very pleasant evening was enjoyed at the residence of Miss W. Sauriol on Monday, June 30th, when her friends from Connaught gathered to surprise her with a miscellaneous shower. concluding. President Eyre extended the thanks of the club to the speaker for his excelâ€" lent address, and the keen attention given throughout to Mr. Wood, no less than the hearty and continued apâ€" plause extended showed the appreciaâ€" tion felt by all for this address. The evening opened with a pleasing game, the lucky winner being Miss Ssauricl who was presented with a prar! and amber perfume bottle. An adâ€" dress was read by Miss Betty MacDonâ€" ald, after which numerous beautiful gifts were b"ought to the guest of honâ€" our. A very dainty lunch was served durâ€" ing the evening and enjoyed by all present. After the chorus, "For She‘s a Jolly Good Fellow," the pleasant evening was brought to a close, everyone being pleased at having had an opportunity to thank Miss Sauriol for her constant devotion while teaching at Connaught and to wish her much happiness.

After the game on Wednesday this week a delightful luncheon~â€" was again served by Mrs. Starling. This luncheon won the heartiest approval and it may be that the excellence of these luncheons paid for by the losing team, is putting the Kiwanis players off their game. They are kind of luncheons worth losing to enjoy. J. STOKES WINS GEO. LAKE TROPHY FOR SEGOND TIME Hollinger Again Wins from Kiwanis Golfers, but More to Come.

On Monday afternoon, despite the downpour of rain forty or fifty ladies gathered in the Oddfellows‘ hall for the meeting advertised for women only. Able and forceful addresses were given on the political questions of the day by Meéessrs Wood and Robitaille, who made effective appeal to the ladies to give their assistance to the election of Dave Chenier, the Conservative candiâ€" date, thus helping in the work of disâ€" placing the present government at Otâ€" tawa which had proven so incompetent, as evidenced by the unemployment and lack of prosperity in this young country with all its potential riches.

Baseball This was one of the most interesting games of baseball played here for some time. The contending teams were the McIntyre, champions of the North last year and winners of The Ottawa Jourâ€" nal trophy emblematic of the chamâ€" pionship of Eastern Ontario, and the Timmins Junior Baseball team. Tt was intended to have an allâ€"star Timmins team, but this group of experts failed to materialize at the last minute, so the Juniors were pressed into service and they certainly reflected credit on themâ€" selves and on Messrs. Geo. Gray and P. T. Moisley, who have given so much time and trouble to bringing along the boys. The Timmins lads won the game with a score of 2 to 1. Both teams played nice ball and the gams was keenly contested throughout.. Godin in the box for Timmins showed much talent and was warmly acclaimed for the way he pitched the game. Another memâ€" ber of the Timmins team to get a speâ€" cial "hand" was Rimaldi, who made a couple of spectacular catches. in mentioning . these, it should be noted that all the players on both tsams played the sort of ball that will revive interest and popularity in baseball here. The winning by the Timmins Juniors was especially popular, and will do much to show the public that | the boys deserve the fullest support and ony‘s; | the will provide baseball that will please fans.

The team composed of members of the police and fire departments of the town did not have a chance against the exâ€" perienced and expert McIntyre team. The local team may be said to have been beaten only by hands and feet. They were not properly shod for the coccasâ€" lon as were the McIntyre team memâ€" bers, and in addition their hands were not accustomed to the rope. They plan to have another try under better conditions, and the McIntyre team may look to its laurels in this line. Football «m The concluding event of the big day was the football match between the sons of England and the Cornish Oneâ€" andâ€"All. The Sons of England won, the score being 2 to 0.
