"The moral is that it pays to take I your wife along when you goâ€"a fishing." Grand "The best fishing story of the seaâ€" son was told to The Reformer by one of its principals this week and verified by an eyeâ€"witness. It seems that Merâ€" rill H. Hare, accompanied by his wife and a party of friends, was fishing off the Long Point Bluffs during the weekâ€" end. Mr. Hare had just purchased a fine new fishing outfit, having lost his old one a few days previously. While fishing, he had occasion to go to the other end of the boat and left his pole lying on the side of the boat. ThiS lJOOkS Like the Best Fish Story of Many Years od in vain and he gave up the quest. However, his wife was not so easily daunted and some minutes later she declared that she would fish out the pole for her husband. What The Simcoe Reformer describes as the best fish story of the season, but which seems to be the best of many seaâ€" sons, and a regular classic in its line, is told last week by The Reformer as follows:â€" "Along came a parent bass and took bait, line and pole all iin one gurp.

Expects More Mines | in Porcupine Area The following letter was receivec some days ago from H. A. Preston, on of the first men to prospect in the Porâ€" cupine areéea:â€" To the Editor of The Advance, Tmmins. Dear Sir:â€"A «recent issue of The Northern Miner points out that two important towns now stand where Horne landed, and the paper goes on to toll the story something like this:â€" "When Ed. Horne and his colleag tied up their canoes on the shores Osisko Lake some ten or twelve yei ago, it was in a scene of typical C: acan bush. How different is the ; ture that met his gaze from the mod towns of Noranda and Rouyn toâ€"day." Very good! I am glad to see such a‘ growth take place! There is a cance route from Lake Temiskaming north to near Rouyn and on to Lake Abitibi, and . it was used quite a lot about fifteen years before Horne made his discovery. The rum runners used this route to fetch booze up north to the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway construction camps. At the lake near the rallway,| ywas and is yet, a big Indian settlement. ! Now let‘s change the story! When: Wilson and Preston, Bannerman, Gedâ€"| des, Campbell and Burns tied up their| cances on the shores of Porcupine Lake | twentyâ€"four years ago, it was in a seeâ€" tion of typical Canadian bush, and there were few Indians in the country, and certainly not many white men. In fact, about the nearest white men were C. M. Auer and four or five more at| Night â€"Hawk Lake, twelve miles east. Those were the days when they used to say a man was crazy and fit for a lunâ€" atic asylum if he went looking for gold mines in Northern Ontario, but those! who said so were badly fooled, because | the old Porcupine produced the first big gold mine in Ontar:o, and it was called the Dome. How different is the picture that met the gaze of these men on the | modern towns of south Porcupine.J Golden City, Schumacher and Timmins and also a town named Connaught on the way! Two towns at the east end of Porcupine camp, with the first gold mine beside them, and three or four| more like it somewhere around, and two | t‘g towns at the west end with two| great biz mines there and no doubt j more coming. There is also a high hill| with a tower on it and from which all these towns can be seen, and in the distance, not far off, can‘be seen three] more promising gold camps. What a picture to see this Porcupine when itl t was a dark, heavilyâ€"timbered country, and then to see it toâ€"day! It is going to be double what it is toâ€"day, for some | day the capitalists will have it knocked | into their heads there are a few more | t‘g mines waiting. Matachewan was dead for many years and I predicted she would see a comeback and be busy, I _and that an important gold find would l be made, and it was, and now Mataâ€" chewan is well advertised. That‘s what is going to happen in Porcupine. Someone is going to prove up a couple _more big boys and then we‘ll see the knockers flocking back to the camp that put Ontario on the map as a gold ! mining province. ‘ What a different picture it is to the writer of this letter to be ailone for twelve days on the shores of Porcupine Lake, watching a million fish jumping out of the water, and seven moose come to a bay every evening and play in the water for an hour. Besides, there were other moose at different places along the lake. Yes, to see thousands of partridge, lots of bears, and a cariboo, and at night hear the owls hooting and the lynx roaring where four towns are toâ€"day! All was quiet from May 12th to Sept. ist, then the news came out that great gold finds were made, and the rush started. It was fun for those who had the gold and their claims staked to see the prospectors coming and running round like wild men, stakâ€" ing claims adjoining. The Indians came to Porcupine a hundred or more years ago; then the Hudson Bay men; and then the surveyors; and then seven men who had enough gold to start a big rush. Don‘t forget, too, that anâ€" other big rush is coming, and anyone who has the nerve to say the camp 1s done and no more mines wants to go and have an xâ€"ray examination of his brain. In closing, I would like to note ths fact that half an hour after the first party arrived at Forcupine they were welcomed by two bull moose with large horns, and they stood one hundred feet from the party while the latter were having their first dinner in Porâ€" cupine. Wilfred Hartling and Donald Last owed Oliver Blais, Kirkland Lake garâ€" ageman, some money on a Car they bought "on time." They stole three galâ€" lons of paint from Blais‘ garage, sold it for $5 and went back to make the reâ€" quired payment on the car.

A. Preston THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TOMMINS, ONTAR!O _ piC ‘deor wels y PAAA L AQC CCAAA *h â€"IP AQ PB Despatches last week from Toronto not only contained misinformation, but also gave rise to further misconcepâ€" tions. These despatches told about "gold being discovered" in Southwestâ€" ern Carscallen, while the fact is that it is many a long year ago that gold was discovered in that township. In this connection it may be said that a new strike was reported from Carsâ€" callen township. It woulid have creatâ€" ed some amusement surely if the anâ€" nouncemnt had been made that gold nad been Giscovered in Porcupine. Only in degree would this have been more misleading than the statement of gold being found in Carscallen. It is _well known that Carscallen has of gc‘d This has been known for years. the discovery of actual mining terriâ€" tory, where veins are indicated and ) commercial ore is assured, is, of course, a different matter. The general opinâ€" ion, however, is that Carscallen will yet prove itself as a mining area. Local prospectors have been working for years in Carscallen township, and many promising prospects have been recorded. A week or so, some new finds were reported to the Department of Mines at Toronto. There were few deâ€" tails given ‘but erough to warrant some special notice in Toronto. It is understood that as a result of the find |reported recently, the department has |arranged for a representative to vis.t the field and make a special study of the area with a full report of the geclogy and its indications. In a despatch from Toronto, referâ€" ence was made to the location of the new find. The despatches gave this as l“ ‘n the southwestern sectiion of Carsâ€" 'callen township, approximately 18 miles from Timmins and a like distance from the Abitibi Canyon power transâ€" mission line." This was correct enough, but the reference to the transmission line was confusing. The North Bay | Nugget, for instance, headed the desâ€" patch, “Report Gold Strike Near Abiâ€" tibi canyon." Other newspapers fell linto scmewhat similar error and the ,general opinion of the daily press | seemed to be that the Carscallen find was not far away from Abitibi Canyon. A hundred miles is not much in this North Land, but it is in the South. Even here it is considered to be more |than 18 or 36 miles. No doubt the | reference to the proximity to the power transmission line was given to suggest that power could be easily available lin case the strike proved up to the ‘ min‘ng developed in Carscallen townâ€" ship. The Department of Mines is too well acquainted with the North Land to be in any doubt about the distance or | location, and the misconception in this | rezard> was wholly due to the newsâ€" papers whose rapid reading and hurried handling of despatches makes occasionâ€" al errors almost sure to occur. SKUNKS NOW REPORTED IN SAULT STE. MARIE DISTRICT The Sault is at it again. This t‘:me it is skunks that are numerous in the area. The Sault Ste. Marie parer is likely to adont a new motito to the effect that the man who claims to have been offended by the proximity of a skunk is nct a true son of nature. At present the chief sport in the Sault district according to despatches is the hunting of skunks there being large numbers of these pretty animals in the district. The campers are said to be having lots of fun hunting skunks. The campers are said to have adopted the method of chas.ng the skunksâ€" at a very respectable distance. When the skunk stops, the nunters stop and turn and go back. At last they get the skunk in a position where a long range shot will conclude the hunt.

The time here was spent in Obtaining through an old Indian halfâ€"breed inâ€" terpreter some conception of the religion and superstitions. Many still believe in medicine men, etc., although most of them attend church religiously, the missionary holding service for them every day. The men enter the church first and sit on one side, the women enter after and sit on the other side. The Indian knows his Bible backwards, that and the Filigrims Progress, so far being the only two books translated in the Creed language. Some attempt is| being made to teach the Indians to farm in this district, but they are too lazy to become good farmers and then there is no market for their products. The Indians try to live on white man‘s food, but can‘t afford it and all of them are starving most of the time. In the summer their food consists of rabbits with perhaps a little sugar, flour and tea. The men eat first, then the woâ€" men and last of all the children have what is left by their elders. Here a catastrophe befell the students, as husâ€" kies got in their tent and ate nearly all their focd. These dogs are not fed in the summer but just turned loose. Leaving here they came down James Bay with a priest and a young Indian girl who was to enter convent, and arrived in Moosonee on August 10th. This completed a particularly dangerâ€" ous but thrilling trip. Great care was exercised throughout and only once was the canoe damaged and then only slightly by a storm. Had the canoe been upset and the supplies lost, they would have been left wandering in the wilds, 200 miles from a railroad and no possibility of getting help till winter if they could manage to survive till then."
