THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS, ONTARIO "The Ontario Mines Department maps are proving to be very useful and very accurate in respect to geology and Many Veterans on Matachewan Trail The Matachewan gold area continues to hold interest in the North Land. There are many Porcupine prospectors working in there at present, and many working also between the Porcupine and Matachewan camps, the areas beâ€" tween these twocamps having some esâ€" pecially fine prospects. It is generally admitted that the older camp of Porâ€" cupine and the newer camp of Mataâ€" chewan are x:emarkably good gold agreas, but many oldâ€"timers believe that there is even better ground in between. Were finances from the south to loosen up for mining, there would undoubtedly be a great gold mining boom and southern capitalists would reap big reâ€" wards for their investments. in the last issue of The Northern Miner an interesting article appears in the column "Grab Samples," in regard to a visit to Matachewan. The Northâ€" ern Miner says:â€" Oldâ€"Time Boom Atmosphere in Banâ€" nockburn and Argyle Townships. Water Travel Popular to New Camp. "‘The traveller in Bannockburnâ€"Arâ€" gyle townships and the surrounding area scents the old time boom atmosâ€" phere. The trails are pretty well clutâ€" tered up with veterans of many a rush, some of them looking a few years older but all of them showing that little spark in the eye which marks them as being on the hunt again. "A rush toâ€"day is much like those of years gone by, in spite of the aeroâ€" plan‘s drone and the kicker‘s staccato bark. For one thing it is no place for a novice or anyone who does not know his way around. Prospectors aAre friendly peorle but they just haven‘t got time to look after the tenderfoot. So one may find oneself at the end of a portage or on the shore of a lake with nowhere to go but straight up. Food, shelter and transportation cannot be left to chance or the friendly coâ€"operâ€" ation of others. A man may find himâ€" self completely out of luck for all three unless he makes definite arrangements ahead of time, and then makes sure he gets what he is paying for. The Montâ€" real River area is decidedly no place for a bum or a cadger, so the easy going gentry who think they can drift into a mining camp and find easy pickings are warned off this ground. "For one thing, it is quite a walk from one point of interest to another. There is plenty of water travel as well as foot slogging to be done. It is easy to get hung up at jumping off place if a man lacks the equipment or has failed to make the necessary arrangements. Money is absolutely essential. "The first question a man coming out of the area is asked is "How are the flies?" To date they have not been bothersome but it is easy to predict that they will be. Within the next week they will be in full spate. Some of the wise men been in, looked after their interests, and pulled out to let the mosquitoes and blackflies satisfy their early spring appetites before reâ€" turning. "Old Pete L‘Africain, over 90 years of age, still holds forth at Matachewan, with a retinue of relations and friends. Pete is still hale and his health is a matter of considerable anxious interest to his dependents. He is recipient of a pension as a civil war veteran and also as an exâ€"factor of the Hudson‘s Bay Company. Pete came up the Montreal River in 1866 so it might be said that he is the oldest inhabitant. He has been through several mining "booms" and hasn‘t got excited yet. The writer reâ€" members him in 1907 watching with amused eyes the labours of the prospecâ€" tors who spread up the river looking for another Gowganda. "It is refreshing to get back into this atmosphere of a boom, mild though this one is. The Bannockburn location of the Ashley property is a natural headquarters for the area; apparently everyone must see with his own eyes the gold evidence. This centralization of interest has been rather embarrassâ€" ing to the operating company at times although courtesy to strangers and visiâ€" tors is consistently practised. The exâ€" perienced bush traveller can imagine what such vicarious popularity might mean as tax on the rations and sleepâ€" ing accommodations of the company. "There are several Indian families in the area and as usual they seem alien to the scene which only a few months ago they dominated. Slipping along the rivers and lakes, camping here and there they seem to fail to make a real contact with mining activitiee. The odd papoose, carried on the mother‘s back on a board, recalls scenes of earlâ€" ier days. Customs change slowly in the backwoods, probably because they are based on sound principles of utility and comfort. "At the property there is a drug store in a tent and also a townsite office, where it is possible to buy a lot. The townsite idea has been somewhat held up lately, through hitch between proâ€" perty owners and government. There is also a bank and its manager may be found anywhere in the bush for miles around, maybe drumming up business. Anyhow it is his business to circulate and he circulates. Maybe the fishing is good. "The aeroplane service to Bannockâ€" burn and thereabouts is mighty handy. Prospectors club together, negc:iate wiih the flier for the ride and save time and, no doubt, money. Engineers are nearly all plane riders, having acquired the habit from Rouyn days onward. There is an air service into the Tyrrellâ€"Knight section also; in fact the pilots will take you wherever they can make a good landing and takeâ€"off. Some lakes are taboo, on account of shallow depth or size, but it is possible to get fairly close to any desired section by air. physical features of the country. The area will be studied again this year and fresh details will be added to the alâ€" ready closely marked geology. "The "Moccasin Telegraph" is workâ€" ing efficiently in the district; news, ruâ€" mours, opinions flash along the river and into the back townships with surâ€" prising speed. The camp, lying half way between Timmins and Elk Lake, gets reports from both ends. The water route via Connaught and the Night Hawk is being used to some extent, Timmins prospectors coming in that way. "If the Argyleâ€"Bannockburn area deâ€" velops into the camp which early indiâ€" cations promise, it will be notable that the bulk of the early work will be done by syndicates, which are numerous and active." Here‘s a Mate for the Timmins Turtle Story it was recognized as an old friend by W. H. Kearney. The turtle here was known to be the turtle of the Bonâ€" nechere by its voice and by some markâ€" ings on its shell. At first only W. H. Kearney believed all this. Then he got Jack Wadsworth, of Renfrew, who is a frequent visitor to Timmins, to have faith in the yarn. Between the two of them and the mud turtle they secured the support of The Advance, and the four thus working together made W. J. S. of The Renfrew Merâ€" cury an enthusiastic accessory after the crime. Thus it was established that a mud turtle had travelled by river, lake and portage from the Bonnechere at Renfrew to the Mattagami at Timmins and there you are. Readers of The Advance may recall references in this paper in past times to the famous Renfrew mud turtle that played on the banks of the Bonnechere river and then took a notion to wander. Eventually, it travelled by river and by land until it reached the banks of the Mattagami river at Timmins where New State Areas also operates under lease from the Union of South Africa. Profits in 1930 were $4,500,000 and diviâ€" dends were 17% per cent. Van Ryn Deep in 1930 made a workâ€" ing profit of $2,350,000 and paid 30 per cent. The tonnage milled was 771,600.

The voice told him that his own house was ablaze. By that time the fire trucks were pulling up in front of the Grant home. The chief attired himself as beâ€" fitting his position and went outside to direct the firemen. This strange tale of a travelling turâ€" tle now has a mate. A story comes from Orillia relating the remarkable return to that town of a mud turtle carrying a sixâ€"yearâ€"old chain. Here is the story from Orillia as related by a despatch from that town carefully clipped out of a Toronto paper by W. H. Kearney and preserved as one more proof of the story about the turtle travelling from the Bonnechere to the Mattagami:â€" "Strange chickens come home to roost on the farm of J. C. Quinn, Orillia. Six summers ago Richard Quinn, then a very little boy, had a small pet turtle, chained by a ring through its shell to to a stake by the side of a small pool. Then it escaped. Yesterday it returnâ€" ed, two feet across the back, still wearâ€" ing the old ring and portion of the chain in its shell, and able to "bite a goodâ€"sized shell in two." Though Dick is now Richard, and a young man, he is glad of the return of his old pet, has driven a new ring into its shell, attachâ€" ed a new chain to the ring, and anâ€" chored the now big turtle to the side of its ancient pool."
