Liskeard Team Puts Up Good Battle, But Loses by Score of 8 to 3. The exhibition game here on »Monâ€" day evening between a picked team from Liskeard, Haileybury, etc., and players of this season‘s Timmins Hoâ€" ekey Team proved fine practice for the Timmins players, good sport for the visitors, and an interesting game to watch for the spectators. There was a big attendance at the rink for the occasidn and the game was followâ€" ed with much interest throughout. Timmins Citizens‘ Band furnished musie for the occasion. On account of not having opportunity to practics much togethér this season, the visitâ€" ing team was at a disadvantage, but they worked hard all evening and made a good showing. (The Timmins team, on the other hand, did not apâ€" pear to the best advantage, as players were changed frequently so did not always have time to get rightly going. This was all no dowbt part of Coach Marshall‘s plan for the evening. He wanted to see all his tboys in action. withoat giving away any information in the matter.. Coach, Throop of lroâ€" quois Falls was an interested 5 a â€" tor at the game, but it is doubtful if he got much of a line an the Timmins players. He will know more about their eapabilities on Friday evening. A regrettable accident occurred in the early part of the game. Ran Montâ€" gomery, who has one defective eye, had the misfortune to be hit in the other eye by a stick. He was laid out and had to be carried off the ice. At first it was feared that he might lose the sight of his eye from the injury, but later information is to the effect that he will make complete recovery in a short time from the unfortunate injury.

Smith came on for Thompson and ‘Burns relieved Spence. Timmins kept up the attack. When about ten minutes of play had passed had the misforâ€" tune to be hit in the eye by a stick. He had to go out of the game, Thompson taking his place. Behan and Campbell made a nice combination drive. Lisâ€" keard came back, Seully making a great stop of an ugly one from Robert son.

Official word was received here last week that the Ontario Railway and Municipal Board had finally approved and passed the annexation of the town site of Mattagami Heights to the Town of Timmins. This was all that MATTAGAME NOW A PART OF THE TOWN OF TIMMINS was needed to complete the legal takâ€" ingâ€"in of Mattagami Heights. Conseâ€" quently, Mattagami is now fully and legally a part of the municipality of the Town of Timmins. It has been a comparatively long time between the first steps to secure the annexation and the‘final completion of the matter. But this question, so long a matter of interest and attention, seems now to be finally settled. Recently, there was special agitaâ€" tion To have the arrangementss hurriâ€" ed along so that the annexation could be completed this year in time for the necessary preparation of the voters‘ lists so fhat the ratepayers of the new part of the town might have votes at the coming municipal election. When the final steps had been so long deferâ€" red some feared that none in Mattagaâ€" mi would ‘be able to vote in the apâ€" proaching election. ‘This, however, is not the case. Voters‘ lists are to be prepared from the assessment roll for Mattagami. All on the roll will be placed on the list ard may vote in Timmins at the coming election. . Of course, there will not be time for any revision of the list or for the registraâ€" tion of any additional names or changes, but the larger part of the ratepayers of Mattagami will have the franchise in Timmins for the coming election, the assessment roll including all who were entitled to pay taxes at the time the roll was made in the Spring. I For the third period Baridon was in the nets. Behan, MeGuire and Roach replaced Parker, Ross and Reise, Timâ€" mins attacked but Berry® did good work and held them off.

Gordon Spence went on his own and got by Baridon. Kelly replaced' Campbell. Burns put off. More combination, and Behan netted the eighth seore for Timmins. Giroux and Reise came on in place of Roach and Kelly. Liskeard was taking a strenuous hand in the game and Baridon had lots to do. He made many good saves.

Timâ€" 500 Miles From the Nearest City, Building City of Our Own is. Certain it is, that visitors here are generally astonished and impressâ€" It is often said that the outside world has no adequate, conception of what the Town of Timmins has and ed at the remarkable progress and deâ€" velopment they see here, and partiâ€" cularly at the striking evidences on every hand of solid growth and the apparent building for permanance. Sometimes, it does not seem out of place to wonder whether the people of the town fully appreciate the advanâ€" tages and the possibilities of the Town of Timmins. Ten years ago Timmins was scarceâ€" ly more thansa strip of bush. In 1912 the population was 753 and the asâ€" sessment $246,850.. Toâ€"day the poppâ€" lation is over 8000, and the assessâ€" ment figure for 1922 was $2,875,720.00 not including the recently annexed townsite of Mattagami. Including Mattagami the assessment will exceed three millions. Of course the basis of the prosperâ€" ity and progress of Timmins is the, mining industry, and particularly the Hollinger Mine, which property is all within the limits of the municipality. Yet Timmins does not seem like a minâ€" ing camp town. But then the Hollinâ€" ger does not appear as much like a mining property as an immense upâ€"toâ€" theâ€"minute gold factory. The Hollinâ€" ger is th6e greatest individual producâ€" ing gold mine in the world, producing at the rate of over a million a month in gold, and with immense increase promising as soon as adequate power is available for enlargement of operaâ€" tions. ‘‘Timmins‘‘ is a fitting name for this progressive and successful city of the near future, for to the faith, the courage and the energy c* the Timâ€" mins Brothers is due in very large measurement the birth and growth of the town bearing their name. Mining is the mainstayâ€"of Timmins, and in addition to the Hollinger and the other larger mines of the district, there are a number of properties that give great promise of adding to the extension and prosperity of this vown. So far as mining is concerned, the sayâ€" ing holds true, that ‘‘the surface has searcely been scratched as yet.‘"‘ Lumbering is the second important industry for Timmins, this work being earried on in the district in normal times on a very large scale and giving employment to large forees of men, with consequent advantage to business in general.

There will be a good line of pictures, and the youngsters may deâ€" pend on seeing some firstâ€"class coâ€" medies. The matinee is being given by the Board as an evidence of the inâ€" terest taken in the pupils and the sinâ€" cere wish that they all may enjoy a very merry Christmas. There is little doubt but that this will be one of the big houses of the season, there being around 700 pupils registered at the public schools here. That it will be an appreciative audience also goes withâ€" out saying. BOARE GIVING CHIOREN MATINEE ON FRIDAY DEATH OF ONE OF FRST WOMEN RESIOENTS RERE Mrs. J. A. Walsh Had Lived in Timâ€" mins Since 191%. Was Highly Estsemed by All. In the death on Friday evening last at her home here of Mrs J. A. Walsh, Timmins loses one of its very first woâ€" men residents and one who was very highly regarded and esteemed by all. Mrs. Walsh came to Timmins in 1912 to join her husband here, Mr. Walsh having been in the ‘Camp for some time previously. During her residence in Timmins Mrs. Walsh made many friends and there is very sincere reâ€" gret at the sad death of this pioneer resident of the town. ' For about two years past Mrs. Walsh had been in poor health, sufferâ€" ing from throat and chest trouwble. Last year she went south for special medical treatment, but found comâ€" plete cure impossible and returned home in Jun‘e of this year. Despite all that medical skill and care and attenâ€" tion could do, Mrs. Walsh passed away on Friday last. The late Mrs. Walsh was born in Dalkeith, Glengarry County, Ontario, the daughter of Mr. and "Mrs. Rodâ€" erick MaeDougall. Mrs. D. D. Chisâ€" holm, Oof Timmins, is a sister of the deceased, and there are two other sisâ€" ters surviving, one in Vancouver, and the other in Reno, Nevada ([Mr. J. MacDougall, of Schumacher for many years on the [Melntyre staff, is a broâ€" ther, and three other brothers reside at the homestead at Dalkeith where the father and mother also reside. For some months past ‘Mrs. MeDougall, mother of Mrs. Walsh, has thbeen visitâ€" ing in Timmins, and was with her daughter to comfort herâ€"in the last days. To the bereaved husband, ‘Mr. J. A. Walsh, contractor, and to the family and immediate relatives and friends the very sincere sympathy of all goes out in ‘their sorrow at ttus time The f'uneral took place on Sunday afternoon at 2.30 to the R.C. (‘hulch and cemetery, and the unusually large attendance indicated the sorrow felt at Mrs. Walsh‘s death and the dGeep sympathy for the bereaved husband and family. There were many beauâ€" tiful floral tributes. Requiem High Mass was said by Rev. Father Theriâ€" ault. NEW O.H.A. RULE FOR GOAL TENDERS DID NOT PLEASE _ Last Thursday Sudbury saw its first game of hockey this season, the Wolves drawing a 3â€"3 tie with the Aura Lee Senior O.H.A., The new rule permitting goalâ€"tenders to kneel or lie down to stop the puck was in effect, but did not please the Sudbury fans particularly.

Series _ Promises to be an Interesting One, The opening game ef the N.O.H.A. Senior series, Timmins versus Iroquois Falls, at*Timmins Rink on Friday evening of this week, Dec. 22nd., is goâ€" ing to draw a large attendance. Inâ€" terest in the game is â€"very keen and there is general anxiety to see how the teams line up and work in an actual match. ‘There have been so many of the reports as to the wonderful speed and training of the Iroquois Falls team this year, that there is also the usual recurring yearâ€" ly desire to see them in action. Severâ€" al from here who have seen the Falls at practice agree that they have a speedy team all right, but that Timâ€" mins will be able to more than hold them down. :On the other hand tnere is very keen interest in the Falls in this first match. A special train is to be run for the game, and a large crowd will be over from the Falls. Alâ€" ready the Falls people have ordered 150 reserved seat tickets For the game as well as 100 other tickets. If it is so definitely settled now that 250 are coming from the Falls it may be takâ€" en for granted, judging from past years, that fully, twice that number willâ€" come over the night of the game, for half the people do not decide until the last minute. BlG GROWD COMING FROM FALLG FOR FRIOAYԤ ‘‘"pick a team,"‘ as is often done in the press without very outstanding benâ€" efit, Howevér, it may safely be said that Friday‘s team will be taken from the following lineâ€"up of players:â€" Goalâ€"Sceully, Baridon. Defenceâ€"Roach, Reise, Fournier, Carlin, GHiroux. The puck will be faced off at 8.15 by some prominent citizen. It is not known yet as to who will referee, the appointment of the officials now beâ€" ing under arrangement. No one can say definitely at the time of writing just who will be inâ€" cluded in the Timmins lineâ€"up. There is a nice array of good hockey talent to select from, however, and though all can not be played in any one game they â€"will no doubt be all kept in line so that their services may be required at any time. At the exhihition game with Liskeard on Monday there were fourteen players used in ail. From this list with perhaps one or two adâ€" ditions, the lineâ€"up for the game Friâ€" day will ‘be selected. Until the team is selected it would not be fair to Forwardsâ€"McGuire, Campbell, Caâ€" meron, Kelly, Behan, Parker, Ross and Cox. There are a number of interesting stories regarding the Falls‘ lineâ€"up for this season. One man returned last week from the Falls with the story that he was told that the mau who was the speediest player on the Falls team last year was not considerâ€" ed fast enough this season for a place on the team. Another story is that Bill Brydge will be a spare this seaâ€" son. The evidence however, would sugâ€" gest that the lineâ€"up for the r‘alis wiit be much the same as last year, with the addition of Boucher and Lafrance. The (Broke Hustler, Iroquois Falls‘ own newspaper, has made no referâ€" ence at all as yet to any probablé line up, and, indeed, has said little except in a general way as to hockey for the season. It is evident that the Falls has lots of confidence and hope this season. S8o has Fimmins. While Friâ€" day evening‘s game will by no means zive any dependable forecast of the chances for the season, it will give grounds for‘ the better forming of opinions as to what‘s what, who‘s who, and how everything is liable to go. Accordingly, all the hockey fans will want to see that first game at the With the large number of men and women from Cornwall now in Timâ€" mins and district, the proposa: was recently made to form a Cornish Soâ€" eiety here.
