Falconbridge and Dome Play Thrilling Football l Continued from Page One) the return making it 2â€"1 almost at the beginning. A few minutes later Sath- rang passed to McVie who again beat Scanlon. They were just where they started. Tense football followed. Both teams were tiring but were putting up a brand of free kicking, clever head‘ work and clean combined playing that was a thrill to every football fan. Af- ter nearly twenty minutes with neither side getting a break Joe Whyte passed to Rudkin who turned it over to Cook! and the winning score was tallied. Fal- conbridge tried like demons to get back on even terms. There was a specta-1 cular race between McGuire and prit- chard but Sbanlon ran out to the rescue A Cook-to-Jones-to -White play should have tallied again but the ball angled to the left. A few Dome admirers start- ed the song “Falconbridge is falling down," but someone said “They’re not down yet, we had better keep quiet." And it sure was a thrilling battle that held both camps of rooters spellbound. With less than five minutes to go the visitors got a corner but it was headed too high. All Falconbridge played up field and only when that whistle sound- ed did Dome supporters feel their vic- tory was secure. Even then, the fact that a team as game and sporting as Falconbridge had proved, had to smell defeat put a damper on the jubilation of victory for their own boys. Falcon- bridge had proved themselves, clean, strong sports of the best type through- out the two games. If credit goes to anyone player more than another on the Dome Scanlon should receive it. In Monday’s game he l'fad twenty-seven stops to make against eighteen for Phipps. On Saturday he had seven- teen and Phipps nineteen. During their stay in camp the Falconbridge team were the guests of the Dome Mines. Mrs. Felix Florent, Drinkwater Pit, and Miss Betty MacDonald, Matheson, motored to Timmins on Saturday.

Young Women sent Down for Vagrancy. Other Cases at Court. Again this week there was a large docket at the police court, the cases having quite a variety of causes. Al- bert Ladouceur and Noel Ranger. the two young fellows convicted last week of breaking and entering the brewery here, and remanded last week for sen- tence, were given six months each In jail. A woman living on Balsam street was charged with illegally having liquor. The case was adjourned to next week. Another case connected with a man at the same address was withdrawn. A penalty of $10.00 and costs was p laced on a man charged with assault- ing his wife He was also bound over in the sum of $500. 00 to keep the peace for a year. On a charge of reckless driving John Mayer was fined $25.00 and costs, or thirty days. It was a car that he was driving that run into P. J. O’Neill's motor cycle on Labour Day. Mr. O'- Neill was injured as were also two young girls in the sidecar of the cycle, all be- ing thrown to the road. The brakes on the car driven by Mayer were found to be practically useless. Frank Cirrilll, cafe proprietor at 27 Fourth avenue was charged with per- mitting drunkenness on his premises. The police said that it was his wife who was drunk and her language which could be heard outside was not at all nice. A fine of $50.00 and costs was imposed on Cirrilli. An Elm street woman charged with disorderly conduct failedrto answer the summons and a warrant was issued. O.

A charge of obstructing the police was laid against a young man, who was found in a house searched by the police and who gave a fictitious name and address. and then jumped headfirst through a window to escape the police when they found he had given a wrong name. The charge was withdrawn on Tuesday. When the young fellow went through the window Constable Laun- driault also took a similar dive and the young fellow did not get away despite his quick action. Both the young man and the officer received a number of minor cuts from the glass in the win- dow. â€" fined $10.00 and costs or thirty days. Three of these could not raise the necessary and so face the jail alterna» tive, as do also two of those on other liquor charges In the juvenile court a girl of 15 years who had been staying away from home at nights and otherwise proving incor- rigible was sent to the Industrial School. Jack Miner Makes Big Hit at Committee Meeting (Continued from Page One) prohibiting the killing of deer in the water, A. E. Prout replied:â€"“I say give the deer a chance!" a sentiment that was much applauded, the many ladies present joining heartily in the applause. “Are beaver and otter increasing or decreasing?" asked Hon. Mr. Black. He was told there were a number of beaver here but no otter. When some one said there were no muskrats around here, Jas. Cowan spoke up to say there must be because one was picked up in the Hollinger Mine the other day The meeting was in favour of a short open season next year for partridge with a small bag limit. The meeting told the committee that more game wardens were needed for this district. “There should be two more,” said A. W. Young, president of the Rod and Gun Club. Hon. Mr. Black outlined proposed legislation requiring that during the months of May. June, July and August. no guns be allowed except under gun license, say, of $1.00 per year. These licenses should only be issued to Cana~ dian citizens. The act would not apply to settlers on their own lands. He out- lined the injury done by the flock of tourists, a great percentage of whom brought in guns. They had no interest in the game of the country except to kill it. He outlined the various pro- present did not want it to interfere with prospectors. The meeting other- wise was very strongly in favour. A. F. Kenning referred to the need for fish ladders at the dams on the river. He recalled when the fish were plentiful in all parts of the river, but with the high dams they could not get up the stream to spawn. There had There were six common drunks each . . . .29c., 39c and 98c been correspondence with the depart- ment for three years and the depart- ment had said that the ladders should be put in. but this had not been done. One suggestion was that the game warâ€" den should prosecute the power com- panics for failing to have the preper' ladders installed. Eventually it was moved by J. D. Brady. seconded by W. King. and Carried unanimously that the | committee take up the matter with the ! department and have the proper fish ladders put in at once. “Is there to be a dam built at Fred- erickhouse?" asked J. D. Brady. The committee had heard rumours but did not know. “It will take away our only shooting place," said Mr. Brady. “In view of what you have said about the value of the tourist trade." said Mr. Young. “do you think the marsh could be more valuable to the country as an attraction to tourists or as a power site?" It was decided that resolutions in the matter should be submitted to the proper authorities. After Hon. Mr. Black had thanked all for the information and interest, Jack Miner was called upon for an ad- dress. There was great applause. The audience was smiling as he came for- ward smiling, and he broke into a song ‘ about “Smiles" of various states and countries. with the Ontario smile as the one he liked the best. He made kindly reference in opening to the A11â€" worth family of Kingéville and said he had a'link with Timmins in Ted All- worth whom he knew when he was a pretty little boy, “but that was a long time ago.” He then touched on his own early history and how he got into the study of wild life. “I had a good home," he said. “We always had three meals a dayâ€"cornmeal, oatmeal, and miss-a-meal." He thanked God for honest poverty that roused men to effort and ambition. “I have been scoffed at; they have said I was foolish; but here I am with 100 lbs. of steaml and no damper on." Ontario he said had 400,00 square miles of paradise for game. One state boasted of being the state of 100 lakes, but Ontario had a million lakes. “Let us see that we keep our streams pure,” he urged. He show- ed 'what Ontario might do with its wonderful resources. Rondeau has had ten deer to the square mile for the past ten years, he pointed out, and if Onâ€" tario’s 400, 000 square miles were simi- larly conserved in game it would be the hunter’s paradise. The big thing was to get rid of the wolves. He quoted the case of Nova Scotia to snow how deer m ltiply when there are no wolves. In )8 6 Nova Scotia had no deer. A start was made that year, and in 1930 that province sold 11,000 deer hunters‘ licenses. “Tell the truth, if you have to lie to do it," was one sentence Jacri Miner used to emphasize a point. He dealt at length with the case of Penn- sylvania and the wonderful results there from 161 square miles of sanctu- ary for wild life. More than once he emphasized the fact that as an at- traction to tourists “one live deer is better than ten dead ones." Jack Miner had much of interest to say about the ducks and geese and the growth of his bird sanctuary at his farm at Kingsville. Last year there were over 400 bfi'ds there. Timmins 190 77c 49c 39c 59c Phone 835 19c 45c 790 Listerine Antiseptic KL€€N€X 19c could also have the birds here if proper protection were given. The birds, he said, knew their friends and their ene- mies; they had more sense than human geese. Again he urged the value of livh attractions over dead ones. Before closing he gave earnest warn- OVALTINE the prime restorative and tonic.

(Continued from Page One) the town relief. She suggested sever- al alternatives to the council. One of these was for the council to get her a bigger; house. and help her for a month or so and she would take in boarders. Her brother would not give up his permit, so if she (had to ask him to go because the council insisted, then the council should increase the amount given so that the family could live. The police had visited her place twice but had found no liquor except what was on the permit. “If you want to accuse me of selling liquor that way,” she said, “I could get along all right myself if you let me sell liquor, if I had the money to buy it." If her brother had to move out, she said, he would take half the furniture with him as he own- ed most of it and the rest was not yet paid for. After the woman had made further appeal to the council, Mayor Drew said that the rule was to refuse relief money to any family that had a liquor permit. He thought the brother should give up the permit for the present to help her along. At the same time the mayor and more than one of the councillors thought the husband should be sent to Muskoka for treatment and the coun- cil is to see what can be done along this line. Council discussed the suggestion of putting more lights in the warehouse district in view of the several recent robberies. The mayor said that the police were watching the warehouses as well as possible so far as he could learn. Additional lights might be a further protection. The warehouses them- selves in some cases helped by leaving lights burning. By-law No. 412 to provide for the borrowing of money for the addition to the High School was given its required readings and duly passed. ~ Mayor Drew referred to the fact that the work of widening the road from the brewery to the Hollingcr was now un- der way. He also mentioned that the Dept. of Northern Development sug- gested that the repairs to the road from Mountjoy street to the river be put on the relief programme. He did not know whether this would be the best plan as the number of men employed on such a work would not be many. Routine accounts were passed and some water rebates authorized where the water had not been used. Stores at THE NEW a special pur- Mayor Drew saw some objections to the wood walks. He then referred to the proposed sidewalks to be built from the bridge to the Hollinger. A five-foot cement walk would be as good as a six- foot wooden walk, as the latter had to be placed higher up and so needed to be at least a foot wider as broken ankles might result from stepping off accidents ally. A wooden walk would cost 20 cents per square foot while the cost of a permanent cement walk would not be much more. He had asked Leo. Mascioli for a figure on a cement walk. and under the conditions Mr. Mascioli said he would do the work for 27 cents per foot. He would need about 30 men for the work. Of this number he would need to pick eight men of his own for certain skilled work, but they would all be local men. The other twenty-two men he would take from any the town sent him. The work would thus create some employment. It would cost, apart from the fill, at the rate of $1.35 per foot (five feet wide), while the board walk would cost $120. The council felt that in view of the permanency and final cost of the walk, to say nothing of the comfort and convenience of the public, the cement walk was the better proposition. Councillor Morrison called attention to the fact that a number of wooden walks needed repairing or renewing. Mayor Drew told the council that the town’s requests in regard to the relief fund work. with estimates and particu- lars, was going forward to Mr. Ellis at Tortnto the following day. BUILDING OF ROAD CW8 IN NORTH NOW IN PROGRESS A despatch from Toronto on Tuesday of this week says that approximately 25,000 unemployed men are in Northern Ontarlo. the provincial Government is concerned over the problem of finding work for these men, as well as for the thousands of unemployed in old On- tarlc. Conditions in Northern Ontario are worse than at any previous time. ac- cording to Hon. Dr. J. M. Robb. Droâ€" vincial Minister of Health. who has Just returned from a week's trip in that dis- trict. The almost entire absence of log-cutting in the bush will add to the problem. Unemployed single men, it has been announced. will be put to work on con- struction of the trans-Canada high- way across the province. No decision has yet been made as to when the first detachment will be sent north from old Ontario. according to Hon. William Flnlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests. Meanwhile, work on the establish- ment of camps along the projected highway route is being proceeded with as rapidly as possible. R. G. Sund'erland‘. of St. Thomas. was a business visitor to the camp lastrweek.
