ThE PORCUPINE AOVANGE Mack* Sennett comedy â€" which is on view at the New Empire Theatre on Friday and Saturday of this week. All the elements of farce comedy are embraced in the production and there are â€" many _ humorous _ situations. Charley Murray, Bert â€" Roach, Eva Thatcher, Marie Provost and Phylâ€" lis Haver are the leading funâ€"makers in this fine comedy. NAMED ODDFELLOWS ON ACCOUNT OF THEIR BASEBALL WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13th, 1919 The first of the series of baseball matches between the Timmins and South Poreupine Oddfellows was play ed here on Monday evening. Of course it was an interesting game and pleased everybody there immensely OoLD AND YOoUNG SHOULD SEE ‘‘NEVER TOO OLD.:"*‘ 6 \(ept the ‘scoreâ€"keeper who got brain fag trying to keep‘the seore, and Bill Smith on first base who blamed it all} on the glove. South Poreupine with a seore averaged from various quotaâ€" tions as about 19 to 12. There were a niumber of good play and a number of funny plays and some funny playâ€" ers.â€"â€"The return . match between the two Oddfellows lodges is to be played at the Picnic today (Wednesday) and the final game nextâ€" week. Thus there will be a Picnic both this week and next. The battery for the South nd Oddfellows was Wood, Pillsworth and Myers, and for the Timmins brethren, Moore, Easton â€"and Alton. Secretary W. 8. Macpherson, of the Campaign Committee for the Vetâ€" erans‘ War Memorial Club House reâ€" ports that the campaign is progressâ€" ing favorably., Returns have not yet been received from â€" Mines, but subscriptions from this souree are exâ€" pected to run about $2500.00 from the employees. â€" Next week a special canvass will be made of the comâ€" panies doing business in the Camp, inclwding the mining, power, pulp and other companies. â€" There is also a balance of $3,000,.00 in the bank from the Consolidated Patriotic Fund which it is thought may be turned over io The w arâ€" â€" P llilu. Farlier in the year at meetings eallâ€" ed for the disposal of this fund, it was dlifficult to secure anything like a representative meeting, but the gen eral feeling was that any balance reâ€" maining would go to the Great War Veterans and the Navy League.

Mr. P. Macaulay on being called upon, said that though unprepared Mr. Hugh Stevens proposed the toast to **Our Absent and Silent Sixty «thousand â€" of the Canadians had paid the supreme sacâ€" rifice for the great cause, he said. The toast was fittingly responded to. Briefly, but in apt manner, Mr. W. E. MeCoy proposed the toast to the Mining Industry. In a thoughtâ€" ful address Major MeMillan, Mining Inspector, made response, detailing the good work accomplished by the Canadian â€" Mining â€" and â€" Tunnelling Companies who went over from 1914 onwards. â€" He gave thrilling descripâ€" tion of the perilous work of these units and the success achieved. The evening‘s program was enliven ed by lots of musie. For most of the numbers Mr. H. M. Martin very acâ€" ceptably â€" presided at the piano. Trench songs were a feature of the evening and were sung with an enâ€" thusiasm that was contagious.

He touched briefly on some of the economic injustices or disabilities of the modern industrial system, and suggested constitutional remedies. â€" In unequivocal language he condemned Bolshevikism and Red Flag Anarehy, while vigorously upâ€" holding the eause of Labour.

His address was repeatedly interrupted by the applause, and at the close of his talk the Veterans generally agreed that it was one of the most interesting and informative addresses they ‘had listened to for some time. A general disceussion on ways and means to make the @Goldfields Branch of more service to the returned men and to ensure the good of the Associaâ€" tion was also framkly entered into, and helpful results are expected from the full and freediseussion. The present officers of the Branch have signified their intention of resigning and a reâ€"organization is said to be contemplated that will â€" materially strengthen the activities of the Veterâ€" ans here and assure the ‘harmonious working out of the purpose of the Association.

Carling came to the Council recarding the sewerago _ installation on Elm street. He understood that on account of the rock on the street at one place it was not the intention of ‘the Council to put the ‘Bewer through the street on account of the prohibitive cost. _ He suggested that the sewer could be connected with the properties affected by running the sewer at the back of the lots.

Town Engineer Sutcliffe said he had plans, ete., made for all the sideâ€" walks to be built this year. The toâ€" tal estimated cost would be roughly $8,000.00. As these works would be done under the Loéal Improvement plan (under which the town pays 40 per cent and the cost of intersections, ete., probably 50 per cent in all of the total cost) the Chairman of the Pubâ€" lie Works Committee, Mr.â€".

FAMOUS ACTOR COMING HERE IN ‘‘*THE SILVER KING .‘ W m Faversham, the famous actor, is the star in the picture, ‘*The Silver King,‘‘ coming to the New Empire Theatre ‘here on Friday and Saturday of this week. This picture deals with adventures of Wilfred Denver, an English squire who is ruined by a supâ€" posed friend in revenge over a love affair. After ‘‘backing the Derby"‘ Denver hears the supposed Timmins Branch, gloating over the success of the scheâ€" me and sets out to kill him. ‘The man, however, is killed by robbers, but Denver is suspected, and to evade arrest he disappears completely. The ensuing complications make a thrilâ€" ling. drama. The picture shows reâ€" markable scenes at the Derby races, mining camp scenes, and many execitâ€" ing episodes. In the end the story ends happily as all good stories should in this wicked world wliere real life does enough of staying twisted and perplexed. This special is enthusiâ€" astically spoken of hy the daily press. The picture is a screen dramatization of the celebrated melodrama produced by Henry Arthur Jones and that seâ€" cured such remarkable popularity on the stage on this continent and overâ€" seas SUBSCRIBE NOW !
