Award What a Game â€"Montreal Star THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS, ONTARIO At the regular meeting at Timmins \on July 12th, 1820, Moses Greer was appointed night constable for the | treanmn. Thore were thirteen applicaâ€" tions for the position,. Some of the applications had touches of uncon-{ |scilovs humour. One man said he could speak eleven languages but onel of the councillors happened to know 1the gentleman and was not sure that ‘he spoke good enough English for the | work. "We don‘t want an interpreter.':,’ was the comment of Councillor John . wW. Fogg. Another applicant claimed 35 years( experience. ‘"He has been |long enough at it," said one councilâ€"| I lor. Without any question of the| atility or quality of any of the other‘ applicants for the position, the mayor, Dr. J. A. McInnis, suggested that Mr. |Greer seemed to be the best choice, | { for the present. He had given good’ sgervice to the Timmins and Tisdale police forces in the past and held the’ highest recommendations from leadâ€" |ing citizens cof both municipalities.! | Councillors Longmore, Fogg, Newton j and Studor seemed to have the same cpinion in regard to the ability and integrity of Mr. Greer. Councillor D. Laprairie was the only member of the lcouncil nct favouring the appointment of Mr. Greer, as he said he favoured a man from outside the district altoâ€" gether. The Advance noted at the | time that the general opinion was that the council had made the best possible choice, The years that followed, durâ€" ing which Mr. Greer served as chief after a brief term as constable, provâ€" ed the wisdom of the choice. The | town council passed a resolution earnâ€" estly asking the provincial government ?to continue the forest fire protection work around the town. Appreciation !was expressed for the good work in this line done already Gduring that year, but it was pointed out that this was |only about a third of what was necesâ€" ’sary to give the town safety from the bush fire menace. There was a lengthy. discussion at this meeting in reference} to the disposal plant. The mayor. thought it should be porceeded with at once. While agreeing with much that Dr. McInnis said, Councillor LOngmore questioned the business wisdom of atâ€" ! tempting to go on with the construcâ€" tion of the disposal plant this year. The mayor thougsht the bank would finance the work, and council agreed ‘ that if the bank would do so it wouid be all right to go on with the work, ‘ The disappearance of Mayor Mcâ€" ‘Coubrey of Troquois Falls, some twenty ! or more years ago while he was on a visit to Montreal created considerable sensation as he was well known throughout the North Land and proâ€" minent in many circles. It was two months beforé he was located and then it was found that he had answered the call of the sea, being an oldâ€"time sailâ€" or. At Montreal, according to desâ€" patches, the impulse of the moment had proved irresistible and he had shipped for a voyage. On arriving at an Irish port he had communicated with his family and thus relieved anâ€" xiety as to his safety. Hon. Harry Mills, Minister of Mines for Ontario, together with T. F. Suthâ€" erland, chief mining inspector, visited the North Land twenty years ago, Tim_ mins being among the places visited. The mines here were visited. Only a few in town knew of the visit, and accordingly there was no public reâ€" cognition of this kind visit here of the first member of the Ontario Governâ€" ment to be exclusively Minister of Mines. The assessment roll of the town of Timmins for 1920 gave the town a population of 4081. Of this number 3,372 were adults and 631 children beâ€" tween the ages of 5 and 16, and 73 from 16 to 21 years. The populatilon showed a decrease of 528 from 1919 figures. The total assessment for 1920 was $2,445,264.00, as against $2,025,â€" €13.00 the previous year. On July 11ith, 1920, twentyâ€"eight or twentyâ€"nine buildings at what was then known as the "YÂ¥" at TIroquois Falls, and later called Ansonville, were burned down. Most of the buildings destroyed were frame shacks, tarâ€"paper covered. None of the buildings carried any insurance, and most of them were owned by foreigners, chiefly employses of the Abitibi Co. The disaster was caused ‘by ‘bush fires creeping up to the little settlement. The business places af the town were not destroyed. The Advance pointed out at the time that centrary to the general rumours in circulation in Timmins the town of Iroquois Falls and the Abitibi plant were not endangered at any time by A game in the Porcupine baseball league twenty years ago between the Dome and Timmins, played at South Forcupine took eleven innings to deâ€" cids. Of course it was not the same class as the famous thirteenâ€"innings game later on between Timmins and Ircquois Falls when "Peewee" Asquin won undying fame and got the surâ€" prise of his young life when he hit the third strike or him, after fanning four or five times, and brought in the run that won the match for Timmins. In the Domeâ€"Timmins game at Southa Pcreupine, however, the contest was very keen one. The scors at the end of the ninth was 9â€"9. ‘The final seore, after eleven innings was 12 to 11.
