But two years Thirty rinks, including those from Haileybury, New Liskeard, North Bay, Englechart, Cobalt, SOuth Porcupine, Kirkland Lake, Rouyn and Timmins, took part in a big bonspiei at Haileyâ€" bury ten years ago this week. I. Soloâ€" mon, W. Lang, and F. Prancis skipped the Timmins rinks. W. A. Gordon was chairman at the social evening when Mayor Legris of Haileybury welcomed the curlers. Wilscn Lang told of the days in 1907 when a curling match was played on Lake Temiskaming at Haileybury with the Timmins brotheis, W. A. Gordon, himself and other oldâ€" timers taking part. Besides the snowstorm ten years ago this week, Timmins had an earthquake with which to ccntend. But they didn‘t know it was an earthquaks until they were told it was later. "More blasting at the mines," said some. "Another faulty foundatitcn," said others. It ocâ€" curred on Feb. 28th, 1925, which was Saturday, at between 9.20 and 9.30 in the evening. Officials of the dog races were gathered in Dr. McInnis‘ office and felt the shaking, noticing parâ€" ticularly the swaying cf a table lamp and the high bookcase against the wall. No damage was done in Timâ€" mins, but in Quebec some plaster fell, at Three Rivers a woman fell dead from shzeck and at other places minor damage was done. Government geoloâ€" gists attributed the quake to the slipâ€" ping of a rather serious fault in the earth‘s crust near the mouth of the SBaguenay river, Train 47 of the T. N.

Four ploughs were necessary to clear the snow that blocked the branch lines as well as the main line. Chairman of the T. N. 0. Commission, George W. Lee, and a party of officials were left strandea on the extension ncorth of Cochrane. The Continental Limited, crack C.NR, flyer, was following 47 through a blindâ€" ing blizzard when a rear end crasn occurred. The Continental was barely moving at the time so little damagz»e was done, though things were tied uu for some time. "With the usual T. M. 0. luck," says The Advance, "there were no fatalities.‘ The most serious injuries were a man with a badly sprained arm and the fiveâ€"yearâ€"old daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Angus Kerr, of Moneta, who was jarred into biting her tongue rather severely. "There is very generally expressed indignation al the fact that the passengers on the wrecked and stalleqd trains were left to shift for themselves to such an extent and so had to endure many hardships in the matter cof comfort, meals and sleeping â€" accommodation," says The Advance.
