Early this year the Sehumacher people put on a eoncert for the benefit of the Porenuipne Hockey Team, and the event was largely attended by interâ€" .ested people from Timmins, South #oreupine and other parts of the disâ€" triet. Those attending were more than pleased with the programme furnishâ€" ed on that oceasion and all were agreed that the Schumacher talent was unusually skilled and effective and the programme a very delightful aone. Last year a concert given by the Schumacher people found similar faâ€" vour and approval from all the disâ€" trict. A few weeks ago the same falent gave a very attractive proâ€" %_t‘amme in the Schumacher theatre "and the general opinion was that Scehumacher has an unusual array of highâ€"class singers and entertainers and that an event of this kind in Schu macher is sure to be sométhing out of the ordinary and well worth the largâ€" est attendance. ~â€"On Tuesday evening, Sept. 20th. ~Schtmacher is to have another of these highâ€"class entertainments. ‘This event will be under the auspices of the Schumacher Churech Choir, and the programme will be furnished by that musical organization.

McINTYRE BOWLING TEAMS GETTING INTO FINE FORM These days the accommodation in town ‘for school purposes is being more than well teste.d ‘With the preâ€" sent needs, the town would be in bad shape, were it not for the provision made in recent years for school acâ€" commodation. When the new public school and the new separate school were built argument was used against each that they were built on too large a scale. This year, however, proves the foresight of the school boards and more than justifies them. In the past couple of years the school attendance here has doubled and neither the new !public school nor the new separate school is large enough to accommodate the very large attendance. About 500 pupils are attending the Separate school, and special accommodation has to be provided in a nearby hall belonging to the church. The public school is similarly pressed for room. Over 400 pupils are attending the puâ€" blic school this term, and the big new school has not present accommodation for this erowd. As_ a result arrangeâ€" ments were made fhis week for a. couple of the classes to\be‘ucconnuo-i dated at the fine new public school at Moneta. The classes and teaclrers moved to their Moneta quarters on Monday and the classes are being carâ€" ried on there for the present. It is the intention of the public school board here to ad another storey to the present building and this addition will give ample accommodation for present needs. Until this addition is ready the fine qnarters in the excelâ€" lent new school at Moneta will prove very aceeptable.

All Mr: Issby ‘had to do was to come along with this other passenger. Mr. I{ssb_v followed the come along advice. nstead of measuring up somebody else for a suit of clothes, however, he measured his own length in the mud in his own suit of clothes after the two men got a little distance away from Barber‘s Bay station. The other man was on top, and being a big strong husky gent he was able to go through Mr. Issby‘s clothes and relieve this traveller of $410.00 in eash and a cheque for some three hundred dolâ€" lars. All this happened within twenty minutes of their leaving the train, and Mr. Issby was left alone on the trail, covered with mud but minus his money. TRAVELLER HELD UP AND RELIEVED OF DVER $700.

Following the very favourable reâ€" sults recently on the Beaumont and a recent examination\ of the Davidson, it is said that the Goldale Mining Co., (the company taking over the Bewick Moreing properties in this district) may do some diamond drilling at an early date on the old Bewick/Moreing elaims near the Davidson in North Tisdale.

The Town Engineer reported the stopping of work on certain sidewalk construction planned for this year. Most of the walks to be built had been completed, only two or three strips remaining when the appropriâ€" ations were exhausted. Some of these remaining pieces of walk had been among those that the Council had suggested as to be left over for an, other year. All the important walks hbad been constructed. Councillor Long more, chairman of the Finance Comâ€" mittee, said that walks could searcely be gone on with unless there was money set aside for their payment, and so there seemed to be nothing else to do than leave unbuilt for the preâ€" sent the walks for which there was no financial provision. The Acting Mayor brought up the question of the recent flurry in the matter of enforcing a Sad Sunday in Timmins. Some of the Councillors were of the opinion that the Act was a Provincial affair. The Acting Mayâ€" or said that while all would agree with the desirability of certain places being closed. on Sunday, the interferâ€" ence with clean sports and places of refreshment was by no means as deâ€" sirable. However, if the measure was Provincial the matter was beyond the jurisdiction of the town and nothing could be done. The payroll for the second half of July, $2,489.03, and for the first ‘half of August, $2380.13, as well as curâ€" rent accounts were duly considered and passed. | Estimate No. 1, $1000.00, and Estimate No. 2, $485.16, for work on streets by Malette and Lamothe were passed for payment, as were also Estimate No. 1, $1000.00, and Esâ€" timate No. 2, $9588.80, J. J. Flanagan & Co., for sewage disposal plant. Other routine business was ‘handled Other routine business was ‘handled with due despatch, the Acting Mayor presiding with efficiency and ablity. The chief item of business was the necessaryâ€"â€"resolution in connection with the connecting up of the sewerâ€" age system. It was decided to call for fendérs for the connections to the houses. The town is to be divided for the contracts, some sections on acâ€" count of water, etc., being more exâ€" pensive for the connections than others.. The motion passed by the Council in the matter was as follows: Moved by Councillor Noble, secondâ€" ed by Muncillor Morin, and earried, â€"That the Town Engineer be authorâ€" ized to call for tenders on house sewâ€" er cormsctions, the contract price to vary with the section of the town.

A meeting of the Executive of the Caledonian Society of Timmins is beâ€" ing called for an early date to arrange for the reâ€"opening of the meetings of the society. * The meetings were disâ€" continued during the hot summer weather and the vacation period, the plan being to resume the sessions twice a month in September. It is likely that the reâ€"opening méeting will be held towards the end of this month, with an unusually attractive programme. Further announcement will be made in these columns, proâ€" bably next week. CALEDONIAN SOCIETY MEETINGS TO BE RESUMED Falls Board of Trade invited all the !furmex‘s and settlers in the district to spend the day at the Falls, see the WDWb: mill, Tiew tle town. and dic. .cuss the problems of the North Land, such as roads, fire protection, and the direct sale of farm produce by the farmer to the consumer. A special train was run on the T. & N. 0. from Englehart north. (Meals were offered the farmers at 25 cents each and speâ€" cial accommodation offered to those bringing their own lunches. ‘Whether farm operations interfered or what, the farmers did not accept the invitaâ€" tion in as great numbers as might reaâ€" sonahly be expected. Probably less than 20 came from south of Porquis JDunction, though from nearer the Falls the response was much better. The settlers from up ‘Cochrane way also made response, and altogether the number responding to the generâ€" ous invitation may be considered as encouraging. Any similar event may be safely expected to attract a larger gathering from a wider district, for the plans and purposes of the Farmâ€" ers‘ Day at the Falls are certainly worthy. of consideration and are asâ€" suredly along the right lines. In this case, as in many other lines, Iroquois Falls ‘has the satisfaction of setting a good lead. It will certainly be‘to the advantage of the settlers and the towns alike to get together and disâ€" cuss the questions outlined and learn the viewpoints of each other and "‘get | acquainted.‘ < NOT LARGE ATTENDANCE AT FARMERS‘ DAY AT THE FALLS Yesterday (Tuesday) was Farmers‘ Day at Troquois Falls. ‘The ITroquois _ Last week Timmins and the Falls were tied for the district league w"h each team having a game to play with Cochrane. Last Wednesday Timmins went to Cochrane and won from that team in an easy game for Timmins, the score being 15 to 3. One of the players described the event as a ‘‘*fine practice game‘‘ and a ‘‘nice workout‘‘ for Timmins. But on Saturday last TIroquois Falls also won its game with Cochrane at the Falls, the score being 13 to 3. In this game Iroquois Falls showed they were back in good form, and there is no doubt that they will put up_% stirring. battle with Timmins Ffor the thonours of the idistrict. The final result of the N.O.B.A. games now stands:â€"Timmins and Iroquois Falls, each won 6, lost 2; Cochrane, won 0, lost 8. The new series, Troquois Falls at Timmins today, and Timmins at Iroquois Falls on Saturday, is neâ€" eessary to break the tie.. Both teams will undoubtedly put up a battle royal and these games will certainly be the greatest of the whole season. If each wins one, the N.0.B.A. executive wil) set a date for the deciding contest. The lineâ€"up for the two teams will be materially the same as in previous games, though it is likely that Bowâ€" man may pitch throughout for the Falls and some other minor changes obtain on that team. n oe This afternoon at 4 p.m. sharp will see the opening of the first game of the series to decide the championship of the N.O.B.A. Iroquois Falls plays here toâ€"day and Timmins is scheduled to play at the Falls on Saturday the 17th. In case of rain, the Saturday game at the Falls will be played on Monday the 19th. If either the Falls or Timmins win the two games, furâ€" ther playing will be unnecessary, but if each team wins a game, a tie will still prevail and a third game will be required to decide the matter. Iroquois Falls and Timmins Play Here Toâ€"day and at Falls on Saturday.
