L. Slaght was elected chairâ€" man of Haileybury Public School Board for 1926.~ Some days ago in Hailéeybury police court a Coleman Township man was fined on a charge of ecruelty to animals, the fine and cost totalling $42.50. The charge developed from an occurrence on New Year‘s Day. The farmer drove in to Haileybury putting his horses in a cold shed while they were very warm from fast driving. One of the horses took sick and it is said that the farmer made no efforts to have its sufferings reâ€" lieved. The animal died after much suffering and the charge of cruelty resulted. The farmer not only lost his horse through hard hearted LOST HIS HORSE AND THEN FINED ON CRUELTY CHARGTE _Turning from national to municipal patriotism, here is an item from the Advance of Feb. 9th, 1916, referring to Dr, Melunis, now and for the past seven years Mayor of Timmins, but then one of the town councillors:â€" ‘*‘Councillor MceInnis wants what he wants when he wants it. He has a way of getting what he wants too. Lights are to be installed near the bridge between town and the Hollinâ€" ger, and at the point where Moneta begins, thanks to his insistency. The firemen to have their rubber boots after all, the Mayor notwithstanding, due to the Dr.‘s strenuous advocacy. He also had the waterâ€" rates on the tapis for discussion in the hope of striking a fair equation, and raised the urgent, very urgent question of wiring and fire inspection, for discusâ€" sion and settlement. We might do woxse than send Dr. McelInnis to parâ€" liament after he is through with town Among the mining notes of interest this time ten years ago the following may be noted:â€"‘*William Navarre gave an option on his claims in Robb Township to Duncean Chisholm of the Mattagami Pulp Co. The option price was $25,000.00, the firgt payment beâ€" ing made and another one to. follow in thirty days.‘‘ ‘‘The Triumph Co., operating the Success Mine, awarded a contract to E. S. Henley for the singing of a shaft, immediate comâ€" mencement on the work being speciâ€" fied.‘‘ ‘‘The Schumacher Mine made a bullion shipment of approximately $7,000.00.‘‘* _ ‘‘The Government isâ€" sued a new and upâ€"toâ€"date map of â€"_The reports of the South Poreupine Patriotic Society, the South Poreuâ€" pine Red Cross and Schumacherâ€"Timâ€" mins Red Cross Society show that very thoughtful and earnest work was beâ€" ing carried on by these bodies, the ladies especially doing thein part. The D.â€"Y. B. Club (‘‘Do Your Bit" was the phrase signified by the letâ€" ters) also lived up to its name and carried on much good work very efâ€" fectively. Mrs. M. A. Ellis was the president, and the young ladies of the club accorded here the most generous support and coâ€"operation. work.‘‘ Judging from the last muniâ€" cipal election and from the general attitude of the people of the town Dr. Meclnnis is still needed and deâ€" sired in municipal work, all protests to the contrary. ue uit o ie w nds i P e t on c P 3 ty sc t + DN t k 1 l ie on‘ NB3 3P se ger Porcupine Crown Mines; Dr. H.

Anyâ€" one knowing of any soldiers families in need were urged to give the facts to some member of the committee. In Februray, 1926, The Porncupine organized a branch of the Canadian Patriotic Fund. The first officers were:â€"A. R. Globe, president; N. J. Everand, viceâ€"presifient; K. F. Deâ€" Long, treasurer; Jas. Reid, secretary. The ‘‘Relief‘‘ Committee of the Branch was:â€"Rev. â€"J. D.

An interesting letâ€" ter from Frank Fettes, at the same camp is also puklished. He says he was made a corporal, while Slim Halliâ€" well, Dick Phayre and Alex Gilles:pie had rpached the rank of ‘sergeant. Neil QO@‘Connor, Bob Stevens and E. C. Carmichael were mentioned as lanceâ€"corporals, and Way and Bushâ€" field at ‘‘flagâ€"waggers.‘‘ Among the other lads overseas who wished to be remembered Ko all in the Poreupine were:â€"Bob Udall, J.

The Haileyburian last week says :â€" ‘‘A marriage of interest to some of the people of this District, took place on Saturda at Sturgeon Falls, when Miss Helen Ratchford became the of ‘*Bill"‘‘ Carmichael. Both are well known in the surrounding disâ€" tricts, the groom having resided here for a number of years. Mrs. Carâ€" nlichael is a sister of Mrs. J. Philbin. My. and Mrs. Carmichael passed through yesterday on 47, going . to Timmins for a few days from where they will then go to Kapuskasing, where the groom is employed by the Spruce Falls Lumber Company."‘ BILL SHOWS BOB THE PROPER WAY TO LIVE a good crowd out and everybody had a good time. The match started at 10.20 p.m., with Geo. Lake as referce and Paddy Gallagher, judge of play, while Stan. Kitchen acted as timeâ€" keeper. Another hockey ‘ match the same week resulted in Hollinger giving the Timmins team another twmmming, to the tune of 4 to 3. The spectators in 1916 had a mcritical taste in hockey officials for The Advance says:â€"**The spectators were by no means satisfied with the way the game was handled. The officials should provide a judge of play in cases where it is impossible to secure a really competent referee. Mr. Elliot, who went on as judge of play at the eleventh hour, impressed the fans as one trained in a° hotâ€" house instead of a hockey rink."‘ _ iIn the ling’ of hockey one of the feature games ten years ago was. that between ‘‘Pork and Beans‘‘ and ‘‘Nuts and Bolts,‘‘ as The Advance headed the report of the match, ‘‘Pork and Beans‘‘ (employees of J. P. MceLaughlin‘s store) won from ‘‘*Nuts and Bolts,"‘ (Marshallâ€"Eccleâ€" stone‘s), the score being 5 to 3. Walâ€" ter Ecclestone distinguished himself by getting two of the three for ‘‘Nuts and~Bolts,"â€"while Karl Eyre got the other one. Holly Marsliall played centre opposite J. P. McLaughlin. Bob Hall was in goal for MceLaughâ€" lin‘s team, with Dryer guarding the Marshallâ€"Ececlestone net. There was (The Advance expected an expanâ€" sion and development in the spring of 1916, just as The Advance believes there will be pnogress and extension of operations in this camp in / the spring of this year of 1926. With four modern hotels here in 1926, and especially with the large and handâ€" some Empire Hotel and its excellent accommodation, all visitors to the camp will find ample accommodation. It was otherwise in 1916. Board of Trade might well give some thought to the problem of accommoâ€" dation for travellers visiting the camp,‘‘ said The Advance, adding that the Hotel Goldfields would be taxed beyond capacity unless an adâ€" dition were built. The addition was built in due course, and everything was all right; scareity of water added considergbly to his troublég in that campaign.‘‘ J,.
