Proposal to Have Local League as Well as Team in the N.O.F.A. Rev. Mr.: Cushing expressed . the opinion of the meeting as to the very valuable services given in the past season by President Faithful and how much the Club oged to Mr. Faithful for its suceess. This was aptly en dorsed by Mr. W. Field, and a very hearty vote of thanks «endered to (Mr. Faithful for his good work for the Timmins Football Club. After the President had reviewéed the work of the past season and the bright prospécts now for the best of sport and success in the line of footâ€" ball in this Camp, the work of electâ€" ing officers for the year was taken up. : _ Foar nominations were made for] Presidentâ€"Messrs. Faithful, Macdonâ€" ald, Cadman and Laidlaw,â€"all asking permission to withdraw on account of the pressure of other work, but the meeting refusing to allow any withâ€" drawals. On a vote being taken Mr. F. B. Cadman was elected by a very decisive vote. Mr, J. W. Faithful was unanimousâ€" ly elected secretaryâ€"treasurer. The other. officers elected were as follows:â€" _ ‘ Honorary Patronsâ€"Dr. J. A. Mc Innis, Mr. C. G. Williams, Mr. R. J. Ennis, Mr. E. L. Longmore. Vice«Presidentsâ€"G. A. Macdonald and W. Field. Executiveâ€"â€"Messrs . H. Hatton, . ‘A. Macdonald, W. Conpar, Rev. R. S. €Cushing, J. K. Moore, A. Roberts, J. Thomas and H. Laidlaw. _ y â€" _ On motion of W. Field, secogded by J., Cowan, the selection of a %aptain was left to a meeting of the players. After the election o%f officers, Mr. W Field addressed the meeting. He referred ® the number of players signed up last season and fhe fact that despite this there hadâ€"been diffiâ€" eulty in getting together enough for a match towards the end of ‘the seaâ€" son. As a consequence he ‘had ‘been trying to ‘find a plart to give all a chance to get in the game ‘and play. The plan arrived at*was a local league with three ‘teams, two from the Holâ€" linger and one from the town, the team for the district ghmes to be seâ€" lect84, from these players; . Recently he had called a meeting at the Holâ€" linger and the +Hollinger Football Club ha‘d beon fo!med avith a comâ€" mittee of seven Mr. Fiel® being chairâ€"| man. Mr. Field‘s suggestion was that thrée be selected from the Hollinger ‘Footbalt CJlub and three«fronr the Timmins Football @t@wb to act as the committée _ to â€"lfandle . tlie. district games. cMr. Fi#@ referred to the adâ€" /vantagé&- of suck,a plan from the standpoints of interést,@practice, r venue, efé. Each of the three teams in this"lgeal league would have its own eaptain, etc..and each club would look after its own finances, etc., tle. weommittee chosen from each to attend ‘ to the district team and games. | The majority present were heartily in fiavgqur of Mr. Field ‘s idea as to a ‘local leigue and givang all the playâ€" ers a chanve hutr'sn"u.ugf' olbjection was taken to having <th6é, Timmins| Footâ€" ball Club put in any secondary place by Ataving another committee over them. ° After considerable discussion, it was decided that the only way to handlé the situation was for the Timâ€" mins Football Club to have control of football in town. It was pointed out that this was necessary in connection: with the grounds and @lso in c®nnecâ€" tion with the Northern Ontario Footâ€" ball. Associatiott It was considered that. the only way to arrange the.â€"matâ€" ter.conveniently and fairly was fo give the Hollinger Club full repreâ€" sentation on the executive of the,Timâ€" "mins Football (l;:gl To do tliis, prac. tically every imewber of the newlyâ€" elected executive ‘préesént volunteered to resign to give three or four places for particular representation from the Hollingér Club.: Under such a plan \the selection contmittee to pick sthe distrrct team could have equitable reâ€" presentation for the Holligger and Ed‘w_&eal league teams. "KField, howerer, held to his idea of a commitâ€" tee from the Timmins Football Club and the Hollinger Football (Club, "@laiming that this is what the Hollinâ€"< ger Club meeting had decided. Messrs. J. Cowan and J;: Thomas did not.agree Vol VII â€"No. 13 TIHnE PORCUPINE ADVANCE PORGUPINE PENINSULA SHOWS GRAFAT FPROMISE meeting of the Timmins Football Club and <the lady was visiting relatives near by, one of the new Hollinger ihouses was entered and the place thoâ€" roughly ransacked. When the lady of the house returned and found the condition of the house, the poli¢ce were promptly notified. Investigation went ‘to show that apparently nothing had been stolen though ‘the whole house chad ‘been ransacked. Apparently the robber had ‘been in#search of money and though. everything in the whole house was upset nothing seemed to be missing, no monéy having been left in the house. Purses, pocketâ€"books, drawâ€" ers, efc., were opened, and the clothes hanging up ‘had all been searched. The crime seemed t« be the work of one man. Entrance had apparently been gained through the use of a pass key on the front door. There were evidâ€" ences that effort had been made to gain entrance at the rear. WThe bold burglar ‘had apparently spent consiâ€" derable time in his search and the sizns suggest that he had posted ‘him self on the movem@nts of the ocenâ€" pants of the house. A flashlight apâ€" parently used by the intruder was found in the house. The police are working on the case, and hopes are entertained that the guilty party will be discovered and trne mystery of other somewhat similar cases also exâ€" plained at the same time, as most of the several recent cases bear suggesâ€" tions of being committel by the same Night Hawk Lake Property Gives Every Indication of Being a Noteworthy Hig‘h-grade Mine. For s?me s1x months or so work has been steasdily in progress at the Porâ€" cupine Peninsula Mine in the Night Hawk Lake district. About 30 or 40 men ‘have been engaged at the mine, and the results of the work have been evidently very pleasing. Mining men who have ‘been in the Night Hawk Lake distriect are very enthusiastic over the prospects and look upon the Poreupine Peninsula Mine as one of the most promising of the new properâ€" ties of the Poreupine. There is a shaft now down 200 feet, with a drift at this level being driven along a quartz vein which runs from 18 to 20 feet in width. This vein is compos8d of blue quartz containing iron sulphpides as well as gold values. Assays taken at one point across a width of eighteen feet are understood to have shown values of from $7.00 to $100.00 in gold to the ton. The vein it is said will average from $15 to $18 all the way through, The Poreupine Peninsula is controlâ€" led by Mr. John Callinan and associâ€" ates. Mr. A. R,. GHlobe, formerly .asâ€" sistant general manager at the Holâ€" linger Consolidated Gold [Mines, is the manager in charge of the property. The work done so far is generally reâ€" cognized as having the most promisâ€" ing results and there is a general disâ€" position to believe that the Poreupine Peninsula is going to develop into one of the outstanding new mines of the Poreupine. The wellâ€"planned work on the Poreupine Peninsula has roused much interests throughout the disâ€" trict and the results following this work have been a decided boom for the Nicht Hawk Lake section. BOLD ROBBER RANSACKED HOUSE, BUT STOLE NAUGHT <Monday evening while the man of the house was attending the annual meeting of the Timmins Football Club and <the lady was visiting relatives near by, one of the new Hollinger with this, and in the interests of footâ€" ball thought the plan suggested might well.be adopted.. Wgentually by formâ€" al resolution it was decided to subâ€" mit this plan to the Hollinger Football Club. As soon as a reply is received another meeting of the Timmins Footâ€" ball Club will be ealled by President Cadman to adjust the membership on tions hand C adman to acjust the membersiip on the executive or to take such other plans as may be necessary for the suceessful conduct of football in Tim# mins. Under the plan proposed the Hollinger ۩lub would have its own ceaptain, officers, ete., and conduct its own affairs, but for theâ€" district matches the Timmins Football Club would earry on, the HolHinger, how. ever, having full representation on the executive. Any other plan would mean all gorts of difficulties and elashes as well: as practically sidetracking the Timmins Football Club after that body has done so much in the past few years to advance foothall in the district. + _ Mr. Harry Herman, of the firm of Geils and Herman, tailors, left last week for Toronto on business. ) work has TIMMINS, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29th 1922.

A Promising Porcupine Property. _ honor of being the first to resume here of the mines formerly operating but eclosed down on account of war and general conditions. It is expectâ€" ed that the V.N.T. will reâ€"open on or about April 1st. . While there has been no official announcement to this effect, the indications all point to a reâ€"opening practically at once. The Porcupine V.N.T. is a eonsoliâ€" dation of the Vipondâ€" and North Thompson properties, situated adjaâ€" cent to the Hollinger on the south and Adjoining the Poreupine Crown on the east. iConsiderable work was done on the property previous to its ('loiing down. _ Development _ work was carried to a depth of 600 feet, with considerable commercial ore deâ€" veloped, A series of strong, wellâ€" mineralized veins oceur on the proâ€" perty, and mining men express great faith in the possibilitiee of the proâ€" perty.

Kee, of the Kerr Lake Mine, Cobalt, who will be in charge of operations at the Goldale properâ€" ties in the Poreupine, was a visitor to Camp this week looking over the situâ€" ation. The noted Lewisohn interests of New York have taken over control of the Goldale properties and as sugâ€" gested elsewhere in this issue the open ing of work will be at once. Master mechanics have been here this week looking over the plant and other arâ€" rangements are under way for an imâ€" mediate start at operations. At the present the work will be centered on the property near Pearl Lake, Mr. R. Brown, an oldâ€"timer of the Poreupine, is in the Camp this week in connecâ€" tion with the opening of the Goldale. He has been out in the field forthe Lewisolhns for some time past and will be one of their engineers here. OPERATIONS TO START AT ONCE ON GOLDALE FIGHT FOLLOWING CARD GAME PROVED COSTLY A quarrel following a card game at a lumber camp near Timmins the early part of this month proved a raâ€" ther expensive affair for Omar and Felix Chenier, each of whom was orâ€" dered by (Magistrate Atkinson last Thursday to pay over $50.00 /each, or take a 60â€"day term in North Bay jail. There was an argument after some playing of eards, and the Cheniers mixed it up with a gentleman named MceKay, whose words, they suggested, were not polite. In the battle McKay lost a couple of teeth and was otherâ€" wise bruised in body and spirit. He laid a charge of assault against the young men with the result outlined above,â€"$50.00 and costs each. Chief Chas. Melnnis ‘had Mrs. O. Frumkin of South Poreupine before the court on a charge of having liquor inja place other than a private dwelâ€" ling. Chief Melounis and Officer Rayâ€" croft made the raid and discovered the necessary evidence to suggest that the spirit of the law, or the law of the spirits was being broken. Through her solicitor, Mr. D. W. O ‘Sullivan, Mrs. Frumkin entered a plea of guilâ€" ty. The Magistrate imposed a fine of $500.00 and costs. (Mrs. Ivan, Kronkevitch, of Schuâ€" macher, was also charged by iChief Mc Innis with keeping liquor for sale. She was fined $500.00 and costs. Chief Meclnnis in this case was assisted by Acting Chief Roy of Timmins ank Constable Raycroft. In the raid they had quite a time locating the treasure, it taking about three hours of earnest search before two bottles of gin and part of a bottle of rum were discover: The case of Donat Cornish, charged with an indecent act in a public place, was heard behind closed doors. The young fellow was defended by Mr. D. W. â€"O‘Sullivan. The on!ly. evidence viven was that of Officer James Gireâ€" nier who described how and where ne found the accused and the events preceding and following the arrest of the young fellow. Mr. O‘Sullivar held that it had not been shown that the offence, if any, had been commitâ€" ted in a public place. He held that the place specified was not a public place in the meaning of the code, and that the case consequently could not be upheld. Magistrate Atkinson took a similar view and dismissed the ease. appear that will have the ‘st to resume LEWISOHNG OF NEW YORK ENTERING THE PDRCUPINE *:®he of the most important announce ments made for some time in regard to this Camp is the statement that Messrs. Adolph Lewisolhns and Sons of New York are about to enter the Porceupine field. This firm has a reâ€" cord for suceess in mining operations. They made a noteworthy success of the Kerr Lake Mine at Cobalt and their connection with the Poreupine will no doubt be equally satisfactory all around. It is understood. that the plans now under way include the purâ€" chase of a large block of stock of the Goldale Mining Co. The Goldale was organized to take over. the Bewick Moreing interests in the North Land. The BewickMoreing was a syndicate of English eapitalists holding around fifty mining elaims in this district. After the Goldale took over the»proâ€" perties work was centered chiefly on the claims lying north east of Pearl Lake. Result§s are understood to have been very promising. If the Lewisolhns secure control there is a general be: lief that work will be prosecuted vigorously and on an extended scale, It is understood that the Goldale shareholdéers will meet early in April to consider the deal, and it is generalâ€" ly expected that they will ratify the proposal. After the deal goes through noteworthy activity will be expected on these properties, , «C Â¥ The audience gathered in the Majesâ€" tie Theatre at South End last nightrl for the concert given by the WTimmins Citizens‘ Band was rtot as large as it1 m{ght have been on a more favourable: night, but it was as appreciative as! possible for any audience to be and all were well pleased with the excellent programme rendered. Mr. Ray O ‘Neill ‘of the Dome, one of the Councillors of the Township of Tisdale, made a very competent chairman, and in his opening words of welcome and this closing remarks of appreciation very ably expressed the feelings of the audience in regard to Timmins ‘Band. The programme was one of much vaâ€" riety and excellence and the Timmins Citizens‘ Band reflected the greatest eredit on itself, its leader and the town by its excéllent playing.‘g{As one prominent citizen of South PorFupine expressed it, ‘‘‘The Timmins Band is a decided credit to the Camp.‘‘ The Band, gave a number of selections in very effective way, and in addition there were a number of other musical and Jliterary selections that gave the programme a very attractive variety. A wellâ€"rendered solo by Mr. J. B. Pare pleased the audience. Mr. Ruâ€" dolph on the violin was heartily enâ€" cored. â€" Little Miss Murdock in elocuâ€" tionary work made a decided hit and an encore was insisted upon.. This gifted young lady responded with anâ€" other humorous selection that delightâ€" ed the audience. Miss Jean Roberts gave a wellâ€"rendered solo that receivâ€" ed a hearty encore, and as a response Miss Roberts and (Mr. Jas. Geils gave a duet that made a big hit with the gathering. Mr. Jas.

Practicalily every part of the whole large district was represented, every board of trade having its delegates. After the Mayor of Timmins, Dr. J. A,. Melnnis, bad welcomed the visitors to the town, the business of the day was taken up, the meeting beâ€" ing presided over by Mr. R. A. Me Innis, president of the Temiskaming Associated Boards of Trade. Mr. Melnhis in opening spoke of the development and future of gold minâ€" ing here. He expected to see the City of Timmins in a few vears and all IMPORTANT QUESTIONS AT ASSOCIATED BOARDS present would feel proud that they had had some part in its development, Mr. Melanis suggested that the next meeting in ‘June be given up to roads and the one in September to agriculture. He thought that there should be a big meeting of the Boards in late summer, when the crops are ripe. â€" He suggested that the towns which. would have these meetings, namely, Kirkland Lake in Jane, and Liskeard in September, get busy with the Executive on a program for these meetings and make them real hbig meetings. C ROADS : . A. Simith, of Cochrane, reported that the Government was not in faver of macadam highways at the present and was opposed to extending the sphere of the Public Works Act to take in the northern part of the Province. He thought the only hope at present was through the Northern Development Branch. He said that during the winter a considerable amount of gravelling had been done and a fair amount of work on roads.

Helpful Discusâ€" sions. nme Coglhrane to Porquis, and in to Kirkâ€" land Lake, and Kirkland Lake to Raâ€" more, he understood, would be graded this summer. vMr./Melanis explained the héesitancy on the part of the Goâ€" vernment to having the Public Works Act apply â€"to the north, because strange as it might seem, there are fairly dlarge districts in ~Old Ontario which are still unorganized and which would immediately come under the Public _ Works if Northern Ontario did. He thought that as Mr. Smith had reported, it was wisest to stick to the Northern Development Branch. He was assured that the road from Latehford to Cochrane would be through this summer. Mr. W. E. Simpson stated that he lhad been in communication with Mr. C. E. Fullerton of the Northern ‘Onâ€" tario Devélopment Branch, and he unâ€" derstood that the Government would be prepared to take some action if they received resolutions and definite requests from influential bodies. Mr. McKnight, of New Liskeard, thought it was not wise to press for the macadam roads; what we wanted was passable roads which would do nicely for the present, and could later be improved. He urged the compleâ€" tion of the road from Kirkland Lake to Ramore. Harry Child, of Matheson, agreed with the previons speaker. There was an effort ‘being made to have Kirkland to Ramore road switch ed and a road put through to Lightâ€" ning River. He thought the urging of a change in plan was what was holding up the Ramore road. Jolun Russell, of Cochrane, suggestâ€" ed that all the resolutions on roads be consolidated by a committee to report later in the day. Mr. Orser, of Elk Lake, said that he ‘had definite inâ€" formation that the delay in all the road work was due to lack of funds. He thought the oniy thing that the question:â€"‘Mr, Ciark, of inngu@edari, Mr. V anier, of Iroquois Falls; Mr. Me Knight, New, Liskeard; Mr. Atrmâ€" strong, Cobalt; Mr. Orser, Kirkland Lake; Mr. Ostrosser, Timmins; Mr. Boyle, South Porcupine; Mr. Smith, Cochrane; Mr. Child, Matheson.

A petition was received asking for water and sewers from Third Avenne to Seventh on Elm street a lis ht on Broadway and sidewalks in that viciâ€" nity. Mr. B). Lennon was present for the ratepayers concerned, and it was explained to him that ‘the Municipal Boards would not permit the installâ€" ation of waterworks unless the reveâ€" nue assured fromâ€"the services would carry the cost. If the estimated reâ€" venue would do this, the service could be installed hbut not otherwise. For sidewalks the regular local improve ment petition would be necessary, and Mr. Lennon agreed to see if the reâ€" sidents wished to sign these petitions. On motion of Councillors King and Morin a grant of $100.00 was made to ‘the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. The usual routine accounts, pay~ rolls, etc., were considered and dealt Wwith. => (Relief appropriatrons were authorâ€" ized for severalâ€"cases of need brought to the Council‘s attention. In a couple of cases the relief took the form of gudranteeing the monthly ‘house renâ€" tals ($5.00 per month in each case) so that the people concerned could conâ€" tinue to occupy the houses. In both cases it was apparent that the landâ€" lords were accepting very low rentals just to help matters. ‘The report of the Committee in reâ€" gard to necessary changes in the Building Byâ€"law was received and considered. The idea was to have a byâ€"law that would protect the general interests without being unduly res. trictive or oppressive, and then have such a byâ€"law fully enforeed. One of the recommendations was to permif the use of asbestos shingles for siding, ‘et(-., if they complied with the Fire Underwriters‘ requirements. Another would permit the addition of a second storey of the same structuro as the building to houses in the strictly reâ€" sidential areas. Another was that all auto repair shops should be under liâ€" cense, be of hbrick construction, oneâ€" storey, with cement floors, ete.
