The inâ€" quest opened at 10 o‘clock. Mr. F. C. Evans, of South Porcupine, one of the coroners for the distric‘t, presided and Chief Inspector of Mines T. Sutherland, of Toronto was present as mine inâ€" spector. The jury empanelled was as follows:â€"W. G. Smith (foreman), F. M. Wallingford, I. E. Dunn, R. Eddleâ€" ston, Clarence Burke, S. R. Craft and A,. M. Stewart. The evidence showed that the late Mr. Pangelly was injured while working at his usual employment as switchman on the 425â€"foot level at the Hollinger. It would appear that in some manner or another he was crushâ€" ed by the cars. No on»e saw the acciâ€" dent happen so far as the evidence showed. The motorman and others at work in the section gave evidence. The unfortunate man was found unconâ€" scious in a place near the ore tipple.

Then, on her part, the goman so acâ€" cussed charged severa}l other women with using insulting languaze to her and about her. The magistrate found that the charges were not laid under the proper sections, and so the cases were withdrawn. The suggestion was made that the women make an effort to live quietly and agreeably among themselves in the neighbourhood where they resided. sat for Clouthier. Gauthier and a man named Bertrand, with whom he was engaged at the work of cutting stove wood were passengers on the gascline boat coming down the river. There was a pointer being towed down by the zgasoline launch, and in a spirit of frolic Gauthier and Bertrand left the launch and got on the pointer. Gauthier was standing on a box on the pointer and was fooling when he overâ€" balanced himself and fell into the river. He could nct swim and seemed to go down at once. Harmos Filotrault, who was another of the passengers on the launch, saw Gauthier fall off. The launch was stopped at once and turnâ€" ed around, circling the spot where the unfortunate young man had gone into the waier. No further trace of Gauâ€" thier was found, however, and eventuâ€" ally the trip to town was completed and report made of the accident. Police court in Timmins ten years ago might almost have been termed 2Â¥ "women‘s court," the most of the cases concerning women. A woman had a charge of disorderly conduct against her sonâ€"onâ€"law, but as he had left town in the meantime, this case could not go on. Another woman had her husband before the court, to see that he lived up to an order Lo pay to her maintenance and that of her children. The lawyers in the cass were left to adjust the matter of payments overcuse and see that further payments were made regularly. A whole bunch of woâ€" m>n from the township, livinzy in the Ensizgn Bond and Mrs. Bond, who had been in charge of the Salvation Eugene Gauthier, a young man of 27 years of age, was drowned in the Ma{â€" tagami river ten years ago, the tragedy cecurring about Swelve miles up the river from Timmins. The accident was reported to the police here by Wilfred Empey, who drove the gasoline place he was found after the accident without help. After hearing the eviâ€" dence the jury appcared to have difâ€" ficulty in arriving at a verdict agreoeâ€" able to all, but eventually the followâ€" ing verdict was returned:â€"‘"We, the jury enquiring into the death of Witâ€" liam Arthur Pangelly, find that the deceased came to his death as the reâ€" sult of injuries received at the Hollinâ€" ger Minec on October 13th, being crushâ€" ed in some manner, and we believe from the evidence submitted that the accident would not have happened had all the resiulations been lived up to." EXTRA LADY 10c The regular weekly luncheon at the Kiwanis Club ten years ago was an especially interesting and successful event. The menu served by the Emâ€" pire hotel was particularly pleasing and won many compliments for the service and the menu alike. The visitors for the day included Mr. Jas. Ashton, of the Soldiers‘ Setilement Board, Ottawa, and Mr. Rawson, of the Soldiers‘ Civil Reâ€"establishment Board in this district. Rev. J. D. Parks introduced Revy. Mr. Lappala, the speaker of the day. Rev. Mr. Lappala‘s address on Finland and its people was listened to with the deepest interest, and was generally conâ€" sidered as one of the very best adâ€" dresses ‘ziven at the club for some time. Amongz the local news in The Adâ€" vance ten years ago were:â€""Mr. Norâ€" man Catton, travelling representative of the Cunard Line, is in town this week on hbusiness." ‘"Fire Chief Borâ€" land was called south last week on acâ€" count of the serious iliness of his broâ€" ther."

The car was parked by the side of the street about seventyâ€" five feet from where the work was in progiess, but something about the blast went literally differently to what was expected and pieces of rock were literâ€" ally showered around. One big chunk of rock landed on top of the car afd went right through to the ‘back seat. Had therse been anyone in the back of the car they would have heard the birdies sing all right when that rotk landed, as it would weigh around ten pounds. At the mestinz of the Women‘s Misâ€" sionary Society at the United Church ten years ago the chief feature was an address by Rev. Mr. Lappala, the minâ€" ister to the Finnish people in Timmins and district. Revy. Mr. Lappala, spoke of Finland and the Finnish people, and his address was both interesting and illuminative. He outlined the conâ€" ditions and troubles in Finland at the time of the rebellion there. On acâ€" count of the attitude of the church at that time the church in Finland had lost much of its standing and populariâ€" ty with the people of the new republic. The first indoor band concert for the scason was held ten years ago in the Goldfields theatre, and proved a very decided success from all viewâ€" points. â€"The theatre was filled to capaâ€" city and the programme given was noteworthy for its excellence and for the variety of musical numbers that made general popular appsal. It is seldom that an aludience has the opâ€" portunity to hear four different voices on the same programme as pleasing and gifted as the four vocalists whose numâ€" bers contributed so much to the proâ€" cramme‘s success. The instrumental numbers were equally outstanding and won very decided popular approval. Ten years ago Mr. Wilfred Salloy left his automobile parked on the street in Schumacher and on his return found the good old car had been badly damâ€" In The Advance ten years ago:â€""The woman found at her home on the south extremity of Spruce street, in Tisdale township, on Wednesday morning last week, with her skull fractured, her Jaw broken and other injurics, is still livâ€" ing at the lhere though her condition is still critical. It will not be known definitely for a week or so wheiher she will have a chance to reâ€" cover. She has shown some improveâ€" ment and at present appears to have a fair chance of recovery. There is no doubt, however, as to the serious naâ€" ture of her injuries. In addition to the fractured skull, part of her jJawâ€" bone was smashed and shattered so completely as to leave her without a jawbhone on one side. The injuries were evidently done with the back of an axe and she has told the police that the injuries were inflicted by her husâ€" band. Apparently the assault . took place: late Tuesday evening or rarly on Wednesday morning. Her refusal to give the man fifteen dollars that she had and that he wanted to ‘use in a gambling game is given as the reason for the assau‘t." The Gold Belt Brewery of Timmins came into operation ten years azo. The first batch of beer made was destroyrd in the prosence of the customs and provincial police officials. The use of the first batch of beer is forbidden by law on account of danger from poisonâ€" ing through the use of new copper. Accordingly the first run of the brewery was emptied out, but after that proâ€" duction for consumption proceeded with safety and the approval of the law. LOL. No. 2552 held a very successâ€" ful conceri, euchre and dance ten years ago in the 1.0.O.F. hall. There was a gcod atteondance and all had a very pleasant time. The programme was . very pleasing one and included a song‘ by Mr. Jas. Geils, very pleasing violin music by Master D. Horwitz, and veryi cleverly given recitations by Robert : Garner. The cards wore much enjoy-} ed, and to complete the pleasure of the evening there was a time for dancing, this feature being appreciated by all. The marriage of Miss Viola Conâ€"| stant, daughter of Mrs. B. Doherty, of Timmins, and Mr. Earle R.

In add‘tion they made wide circles of friends by ‘heir good citizenshin and by the kindly and helpful spirit shown to all with whom they came in conâ€" tactl. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMAM "Mr. Carl Proctor, of the Imperial Bank staff, has returned from spending his vacation at his home in New Liskeard." Gleaner: Newest uss to which rayon is being put is in the fabric, replacing cotton. Two of the largest tire manufacturers have disâ€" covered that rayon is a better substance for binding rubber than cotton because it is more heatâ€"resistant, A tire on an automobile wheel whirling along at 50 to 60 miles an hour often produces a temperature as high as 220 degrees which bakes the cotton cord and lessens the life of the tire. Experiments seem to prove that heat makes rayon strongâ€" er instead of weakening it. Should rayon replace cotton in tire making, it will mean the loss of a market for 283,â€" 750,000 pounds of cotton annually. "Bornâ€"In Timmins, Ont.., to Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Craig. 114 Main avenue, on Saturday, Oct. 20tha,. 1928Bâ€"a daughter ‘"During his labors in the construcâ€" tion of this great waterway Kitchikeâ€" wana is supposed to have made Beauâ€" soleil Island in order that he might have a place to rest, and the imaginaâ€" tive visitor may see depressions where his shoulder blades and hips rested while he lay down to sleoep. Legend further relates that when Kitchokeâ€" wana fell and later died, the Indians not knowing how to bury such a hygeo body towed it to another island closs by, where they heaped dirt up over it instead of dizging a grave. This is supâ€" posed to account for the curious rleâ€" vation of land some 150 feet high near Beausoleil Island, which is known as the Giant‘s Tomb." "In connection with Beausolell Island and the region as a whole there are many interesting legends, one of which concerns an Indian Widigo or mediâ€" cine man by the name of Kilchikeâ€" wana who as a result of internal strife in the tribe left the Algonquins and wandered south to Georz:ian Bay where he associated himself with the Beaver Indians. This tribe was in great disâ€" tress owing to lack of focod and taking pity on them Kitchikewana decided to make suitable waterways from which they might procure an adequate supply of fish. With his great strength he seooped out the Great Lakes sysism. While in the process of excavating Lake Huron and Georgian Bay, huge boulders which impeded his work were tossed by him toward the mainland. Some of these boulders falling short splashed into the water, thus creating the famous Thousand Islands. In a recent issue of The Advance reâ€" ference was made to the idea that roâ€" mance and interest and pleasing fancy are encountered in unexpected places, and that supposedly "dry as dust" deâ€" partments of government are often touched with the genius of imagination and the charm of bsauty. Special reâ€" ference was made to two departments of the Dominion governmen‘â€"the Naâ€" tional Revenue Department and the Bureau of Statistics . The following paragragh from the Bureau of Statisâ€" tics gives proof of the idea: "It is a beautiful story concerning Beausoleil Islond in the Georgian Bay, a rare place that only a comparatively few have visited in person but many of us have seen only in our dreams. It is the largest of the Georgian Bay Isâ€" lands National Park and is about 2,700 acres in extent, more than four square miles. Yollowknife is accessible by. beth water and air. The bay provides a good aeroplane harbour for both winter and summer use. The Yukon and Northwest Territorâ€" ies are now supplying silver, gold, copâ€" per, lead and radium ore to Canada‘s vast mineral industry.

During the winter months there were 350 people in the settlement and since the spring breakâ€"up the number is increasing.
