A very live interest i in lacrosse in this par Juvenile, Junior and S being sponsored, The j will be handled by Carl the Dome, by Frank LA dule of games has beet this series which will k other part of this pape fuller account of lacro: its various branches. Saturday afternoon they play Hollinâ€" ger at Timmins. Then next week‘s games will be at the Dome grounds. The play "Deacon Dubbs$" given unâ€" der the auspices of the Young People‘s Society on Friday last was one of the best entertainments ever given in south Porcupine. It was sparkling with laughs from start to finish and had just encugh of the dramatic mystery in the secret that shadowed the life of Rose Raleigh (Miss Mcâ€" Gavin), to hold the interest right through, The play was given with especial verve and reality, each part being taken so well that it would be impossible to pick out a star. "Yennie Yensen (Miss Paice) in her efforts to get "Dtuteronomy Jones" (Robert Mcâ€" Williams), the gawky awkward hired man, to pop the question gave an amusing touch of comedy throughout. "Trixie Coleman" (Frances J>hns), the village cutâ€"up, finally helps her out. From the time she entered to borrow "yumps‘ for her "meesus" who was "bane going to make bread come oop" Yennie created laugh after laugh just as good as when she wanted hops and asked for ‘"yumps." Trixies‘s pranks on the elderly "Doacon Dubbs" (W. Andrews), from Sorghom Centre, South Virginny during his efforts to make love to "Miss Philipena Popover" (Miss Walâ€" ker) are amusing. At one time she steals Philipena‘s wig and poses as the elderly housekeeper. "Emily Dalp" (Gladys Gibbons) is the sarcastic soâ€" ciety girl who is jealous of Rose Raâ€" leigh‘s popularity and who Trixie claims is also in love with her brother "Amos Coleman" (Gordon Wagner), a young lawyer of the town who wishes to marry Rose and trusts her deospite the fact that he knows her three years in the city hold a secret. "Rawdon Crawley," (Bryn Saunders), the villian of the play, selfish, sneering in success, coâ€" wardly and cringing in defeat, was taken with fine dramatic effect. "Major McNutt," (Don Crozier), the auctioneer, who brought along his own refreshment, was a pompous soul but kindly at heart. He stowed the bottles in the water cocler. Deuteronomy later dumped the ice on top of them and wine and whisky punch made up the water which the Deacon declared he had never tasted such before and imbibed too much of it. In this state of jollification for the first time in his life, he comes to the sale of Rose Raâ€" The Rebekahs a: monthly ~social eveni euchre on Thursday week instead of Fric Hcout entertainment | Mother‘s Day was 0o joint service in the Ur the Dome and South PC schcools.

His many friends in town and disâ€" trict will be sorry to note that R. H. Gray, one of the earliest residents of Timmins, is suffering these days from the effect of an accident that might have had still more serious results. All will be pleased to know however, that Mr. Gray is making the best of proâ€" gress to recovery and that he will nst suffer any permanent injury as reâ€" sult of the accident. On May 7th Mr. Gray was teaching his boy to drive the automobile. They were on the back rcad near town and while the young man was driving the car got out of control and took the ditch. Before the car could be stopped Mr. Gray was thrown through the windshield «and sustained a number of cuts and bruises to his face and head. Eighteen stitches were necessary t» close the wounds Friday, July 7thâ€"Timmins at Dome; Schumacher at South Porcupine. | For the senior schedule it is hoped to have a schedule played in two halves, the first half to end about July 1st.

Dear Sir:â€"This is such a material age that a great many people think that there isn‘t time for anything that doesn‘t spell money. Those who think that filowers do n:t pay are shortâ€"sightâ€" ed.

Macdonald is v Mrs. T. M. White and Tuesday this week was a rather unâ€" eventful day at the police court in Timmins, there being only ten cases and none of these of very serious kind, and none in any way sensational. The charge of fraud against a young man accused of issuing cheques improâ€" 'perly was dismissed. This case has been on the docket for a number of weeks, chicfly because the accused was out of town being called away on acâ€" count of the illness of a near relative. Last week the magistrate said the case would have to go on this week, as it had hung fire long enough. It went on far enough on Tuesday to be disâ€" posed of by dismissal. A man charged with the theft of a battery had the case against him reâ€" manded until next week. There were only two common drunks. Each of these paid the ordinary ten and costs. One of the two was a woâ€" man, which is not so common with drunks, but it was a common enough drunk, being a very full one. There was one man charged with conâ€" suming liquor in a public place. That comes higher than the garden variety of drunkenness. In this case it cost $25.00 for fine and the balance of $42.50 for the costs. Wasyl Huatchuk, 183 Maple street, was charged with illegal possession of liquor. He was found guilty and a fine of $100.00 and costs was imposed. As he did not come across with the fine and costs he is travelling down to Haiâ€" leybury toâ€"day to spend three months. Then there was another gentleman named Matt Chop who was also acâ€" cused of illegally having liquor. Anyâ€" one who is making note of the address | will find it is 165 Balsam street south. Matt Chop was also fined $100.00 and costs. He paid forthwith.

With the exception of Huotchuk noted above, all the fines imposed were duly paid. The total of fines paid into court this week was $165.00. The costs would amount to another $60.00 or more, so it will be noted that a little money was taken in even if the court docket was not a large one on Tuesâ€" There were a couple of cases under the Highway Traffic Act, both being for the same offence, going faster than the law allows. Fach of the accused was fined $10.00 and costs. ITwo Fined $100.00 and Costs for Tc gally Having Liquor, but Only One Paid. Three Months for the Other Fellow. Few Cases on Docket.
