In any event, underâ€" his lease, he is protected as to corner store rights. In the meantime he is fitting up a store at 34 Lang Street which should be stocked for opening early next week. It is understood that Mr. Taylon Pipe proposes to rebuild and thereforeé the present unsightly mess left by Sunday‘s blaze will not long remain. It is being remarked on all sides that what are locally considered as the worst firetraps have been cleanâ€" ed up by fires of recent years, which have fortunately been restructed in their scope, and that the fire hazard of the town has been brought down pretâ€" ty close to a normal level.

RANQUETTEO LAST WEEX N. Levine, secretary of the Timmins who had refereed the exhibiâ€" tion game here, was given a great reâ€" ception, especially from the Sudbury lads. He spoke briefly, mentioning the good sportsmanship displayed by both teams in the game. Mr. Jack Kennedy proposed three cheers for the Sudbury team, who had played so clean and pleasing a game and sHowed the best of good sportsmanâ€" ship. The proposal was greeted with very hearty cheers and a rousing tiger. During the evening an eightâ€" piece orchestra furnished the liveliest music that tempted the boys to keep their feet moving. A musical monâ€" ologue by Mr. Ted Emery delighted all those present with its humour and its clever presentation. The orchesâ€" tra included Messrs. Emery, Wilson, Boissonault, Hyman and C. E.

The programme on Sunday evening will include vocal solos, quartettes and choruses, as well as instrumental numbers. Under the leadership of M‘r. Geo.

Interesting Event in the Maple Leaf Theatre at Schumacher on Feb. l4th. â€" After the Church Arrested on the charge of the murâ€" der of Sergt. John Billings, D. C. M., and Joe Stringer, at Whitney, John Parks, 24â€"yearâ€"old trapper, was reâ€" leased from custody last week at the inquest held in the schoolhouse there. While the death, apparently by fire, of Sergt. John Billings, D. C.

The International _ Broadcasting Week has proved most unsatisfactory. In the first plac8, the weather and atmospheric conditions were most unâ€" propitous. Most radio fans regretâ€" fully admittéd that they did not think they had received a sound from any overseas â€" station. The few who thought they had received a few sketches from across the ocean are being discouraged in various ways. One newspaper puts its disbelief this way: *‘Well, if George Washington were alive toâ€"day, he wouldn‘t claim to have heard any overseas stations during broadeasting week.‘‘ That is a pretty mean suggestion in view of the tall tales credited to the late lamented Mr. Washington, for exâ€" ample, that yarn about the cherry tree. Then along comes the Toronto Mail Empire with a still more deâ€" pressing suggestionâ€"the suggestion that some broadcasting stations on this continent played jokes on the reâ€" ceiving sets. The Mail Empire in an editorial note last says:â€" ‘‘radio fakers‘‘ who tricked listeners into believeing they heard European stations during the broadâ€" casting tests showed more cleverness than consideration for owners of reâ€" ceiving sets and those in charge of the test."" wik s All in all the radio fan who simply said, ""I didn‘t get a thing from overâ€" seas,‘‘ feel they have the best of it, and that they are establishing a reâ€" putation for truthfulness that will enâ€" able them perhaps to put a real good one over some other time.
