There is no more pleasing spot in the whole North Land for such an event than good old Golden City. â€" All that remains now to make the event an unqualified suceess is the right type of weather for the day. ‘The train serâ€" vice now gives easy access to the Picâ€" nie forâ€"all the many who will go from Timmins, Sehumacher and South End, while the~returning rrain leaving the grounds shortly after five o‘clock is also/ eonvenient for the majority.

Now, the games on the schedule are to be gone on with. On Friday of this week, August 15th, Timmins plays again at Melntyre and on Tuesday next August 19th, Meilnâ€" tyre is scheduled to play here .‘ â€" It is understood that the Melntyres have strengthened their team considerably ard thus, with good practices in the meantime, *will mean that they are prepared to put up a lively contest each came during the balancee of the FIGURING TIE PINS BY THE TON AT THE PAS 4A C PoOsS se Scehedule THE PORCUEBMZE ADVADME lntyre CV start thei future . 1| KW Gnl made, and that the said searf pin will be worth about $1.35. Jim got the nugget from Jacob Cook who in his turn secured it €rom Copper Lake where the recent gold discovery was made. The Herald figures that this nugget would assay $135,000.00 in gold to the ton, but as a searf pin it will only be ‘worth about $1.35. There are several tie pins in the Porâ€" cupine that run over $5.00 in gold each, when Officer R. Allen is not watching, and nuggets from the Croesus in Munroe wouald run even higher in value, and not be very large tie pins at that. There is conâ€" siderable talk of the big gold find at Copper Lake,. but according to all the 2200 tons of ore a day and all that immense quantity averages $10.00 in gold to the ton. The find at Copper Lake is reported as giving no better assay than $14.00 to the tor, while some of the samples run as low as $9. 00 . These would naturally be picked samples, and if the **picked samples‘‘ were used of _ Poreupine ore, it would not take 100,000 small tie pins to make $135,000.00 in gold to the ton. â€" When one of the otfhicials of the Hollinger a couple of years ago was questioned regarding a strike at the Hollinger assaying over $5,000 in gold to the ton, he admitted that ore had been encountered at the mine that beat that figure about 50 ways.
