t ; BASEBALL GAMES ON THE OLD, SCHEDULES In ‘*the game at the Falls in the District Basebalk League on Wednesâ€" day last Iroquois: Falls won , from Timmins, the final seore béing 10 to 1. For five innings there was not‘ a run made on either side, and in the sevâ€" ‘enth innings <it looke@ like a close gsame with a small score probable and the ehbances for a win ‘for Timmins team. â€" In the seventh innings, howâ€" ever, some of the stuff known as ‘Serabbing""‘ took place, one Tinimins player eventually having himself removed. from â€" the grounds by the complete Iroquois Falls police foree. â€" This seemed to disceurage the yame, as it were, and in the next two innings Troquois Falls seemed to have the run of luek and the luck of runs, with the final seore resulting 10 tol, in favor of the Falls. â€"Several of the given were eonsidered as unfair by some of the Timmins playâ€" ers, but from the result in the first seven innings as compared with the ~score in the last two innings, Timmins players did better when they simply kept to the playing of the game and left ‘the umpire to his work. It is selaom an umpire can please all the players and usually the questioning of the decision brings only the result of putting the game **up in the air,"" as sgemed to have bhappened on Wedâ€" nesilay last. ‘lMief Wilson last week arrested a younz man sahout 19 years of age, giving the name of J.

IROQUOIS FPALLS WINS ‘ ONE IN DISTRICT LZSAGUE YOUNG MAN CHARGED ~WITH FORGING CHEQUES "MICKEY‘*‘* AT NEW EMPIRE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY United States â€" $3.00 a year IMMINSâ€" â€" . â€" ONTARIO TELEPHONES : Office 26 Residence 112 â€" Subscription Rates : every Wednesday by A Mr. Coulson who purchased some of the Town Bonds last year, threatâ€" ened to issue a writ against the Town for some £40.00 occrued _ interest. which che asserted he haa paid under protest and now wished â€" returned. Town Solicitor O ‘Sullivan said that so far as ‘he could secure data on the matter, Mr. ‘Coulson‘s claim arose from the fact that he had been chargâ€" ed interest on ‘the bonds during a peri od when they were delayed in deliâ€" very to him through no fault of his. For another period, when he considâ€" ered himself responsible for the aelay in delivery, he was willing to pay. The Solicitor thought: tlmt perhaps the Town would bé in more unassailâ€" able position if it had charged the inâ€" terest on the amount of the. purchase price, rather than on the face value of the bonds as had been done. Mr. Longmore said the understood from last year‘s Finanee .Chairman, who handled the matter that this was the Town‘s intention, and that a misunâ€" derstanaing at the hank chad eaused the clvarge on the face value of the bonds. _ After some diseussion Counâ€" cil decided to tender Mr..Coulson the difference between the interest on the face value and the interest on ; the purchase prio'e and leave further neâ€" gotiations ana adjustment of the mat~ tor to the Town Solicitor. ever designed to allow Moneta to use the Town sewerage disposal system,it would be very much imore economical to make the necessary provisions for the service now. By putting the main on one street a little lower and by usâ€" ing a little larger pipe the provision could be made now for Monetas use of the sewerage system. â€" The alteration necessary now woula mean an addiâ€" tional cost of ahout ©800.00 or $900. 00, he estimated, but if provisions badkto be made after the system was installed the eost ,would be much more. Provision could he made now to accommodate all the present townâ€" site of Monefa, but if the settliement grew, pmlwulaxl\ to ‘the westward, other provision would be necessary. Mr. Buteliffec thought â€".the‘ question worthy of special study now in view, of ‘the different considerations involâ€" ved, and on motion,it was left for the Chairman of the Waterworks Cormmitâ€" tee ana the Town Engineer to consider and report at next meeting. A communiceation from the Provinâ€" cial Treasurer regarding the nonâ€"pay ment of interest on some Waterworks Bonds was explained by Clerk <i**rq J I n1 > n o savine that the holder of the Bonds Mayor MceTunis informed the Counâ€" cil that he would be soon going away on a "lmlida_\' ana if not back in time for ‘the next meeting of Council he would suggest that Councillor Braâ€" zeau take his place as Acting Mayor. ULAA WillRS, â€" ~CLC .3 UIL LAILQU.~ He is held without bail for trral beâ€" fore Magistrate Atkinson toâ€"morrow had never clipped his conpons and presented them for payment. All conuports presented hta been ‘honored and paid, but unless the coupons were presented‘payment could not be made. The Clerk â€" was asked to write the Provincial Treasurer â€" to this effect. The Provinceial Treasurer‘s interest in the matter was due to the fact that these were some of the bonds guaranâ€" teed by the Province. The Mayor also suggested the apâ€" pointment of a committee to look after the decorations and arrangeâ€" ments for the reception of the Prince of Wales here on September 3rd. The, Mayot said he would ‘be back from his holiday before the Prince‘s visit.â€" Councillors Fogg, . Newton, Brazeau and the Mayor were named as3 ithe Committee in tlhuis regard. Hon . A@pward Ferguson, Minister o€) Lands, ~Forests and â€" Mines, last year mades sort of half promise that he would endcavoyr to open the Gillies Limits this year for prospecting. At the present time tho annual agitation to have the Gallies ‘Limits thrown open for prospecting is again under way, and the suggestion is madso that the Govrernment tlis time way accede to «o request and that tites> limits may be open to prospectors by October Ist,. © It is claimed that the aanger of destruction of valuable standing timâ€" Councillor Brazeau called attention to the bad ‘ceonaition of part of Fourth Avenue and orders were giyen for its repair, ete. ; Soltwitor O ‘Sullivan said that durâ€" ing his absence on holiday a lady had called at his offics looking for legal redress apparently for an arm broken seccovding _ to her account, through fall caused bvya louse plank on the sidewalk near the bail grounds. ~ He suggestea that the Town investigate and see if there were any dangerous picees of sidewalk, etc., and on this suggestion the Town Foreman was inâ€" structed to inspect the walks of town and chave â€"any dangerous â€" spots reâ€" paired. GoOvERNMEXNT MAY OPEN . GILLIES LIMITS THIS PALL tors would be over â€" by October Ist. Prospectors who know the game say that so far as the oldâ€"time prospectors are concerned, there would at no time be any danger of loss of standing timâ€" ber from their activities, as their own common sense and safety alike prompt them to exereise the greatest care in such matters. Mr. WV. R. and Mrs, F. Waterson wish to express their sincere thanks to the many kind friends and acquaintances who showed such symâ€" pathy and kindness to them during their recent bereavement.
