HOW THE PROPHECY MAY HAVE GOTTEN ON THE EGG Elsewhere in this issue reference is made to North Bay‘s recent ‘*‘bad egg‘‘ that threatened an earthquake. Theâ€" North Bay Nugget on Friday last also had the following reference : ‘*The old white hen who is accusâ€" ed of laying the egg" which was found by Mrs. Albert Turner on Thursday last and which has caused considerable comment in North Bay, is not a phenomenal hen at all. At least, F. X. Haffey, of Toâ€" ronto, has written that North Bayites need have had no cause for alarm over Wednesday‘s prophesied earthâ€" quake but that the ‘‘egg writing‘‘ trick is an ancient one and one perâ€" formed by human hands. Counsel: ‘‘Have you ever known him to be a disturber of the public peace ?"‘ . 9 â€" Witness: ‘‘Wellâ€"erâ€"he used to belong to a band."‘ ‘*‘The Toronto man‘s letter follows: Dear Sir, You may <inform your friends and the people of North Bay in general they need not be alarmed about the quake on April 21st, on account of the warning on the egg shell. That trick is fifty years old to my knowledge. Here it is. Wrnite or print what you wish on the shell with grease and let it dry. Then place the egg in vinegar and the acid will eat the shell away slowly around the grease leaving the raised letters as stated. It‘s a slow process.

NIGHT HAWK PENINSULAR SHOWING UP BETTER For those who did not dance, bridge tables had been set out upstairs, but these were not well patruni/ed the splendid music furnished in the ball room being ,a greater ‘attraction than cards. A very successful evening ended with the home waltz and the National Anthem at half past two. A despatch sent out from Cobalt last week says:â€" ‘‘So well pleased are officials of Night Hawk Peninsular with the general situation at that property that they have put one machine back on exploration and development. A second machine will follow within a short time. The company has paid off debts of $40,000, has earried curâ€" rent charges and has built up a reâ€" serve sufficient to take operations over to the end of May. The elimination of development work and confining operdtlons solely to the breaking of ore brought about the improved situâ€" ation.

SAD DEATH OF ENGLEHART DOCTOR AND HIS WIFKE. Some weeks ago The Advance pubâ€" lished an article by Mr. Chas. Peterâ€" son, publisher of The Farm and Ranch Review, of Calgary, Alberta, in which he deait very effectively with what he aptly termed ‘*Canada‘s Key Problem â€"the Creation of a Unanimous and Vigilant Public Demand for a Comâ€" prehensive and Constructive Nationâ€" al Colonization Policy.‘‘ In an artiâ€" cle sent to The Advance this waeek Mr. Peterson attacks the question aâ€" gain from another ‘angle. He says: **At the recent Dominion Boards of Trade convention at Winnipeg a great variety of problems affecting the difâ€" ferent sections of Canada from the Maritime Provinces to British Columâ€" bia, were discussed at length. It was most significant, however, and the fact was freely commented on, that upon analysis the solution of each of â€"them was found to rest almost entirely on the rapid augmentation of Canada‘s producing and taxâ€"paying populaâ€" tion. There was no difference of opinion whatever on that fundamentâ€" al point. _ Speaker after speaker brought it out cléarly and conclusiveâ€" ly. Very few resolutions were passed at‘ this important gathering and the one dealing with the colonization question was undoubtedly the most emphatic and constructive of them all. It recited in part: * ‘‘That this conference respectfully urges upon the Federal Government : Most of Canada‘s Problems Rest on Colonization Issue Analysis of Various Problems Dealt With by Dominion Boards of Trade Shows Solutions Depend on Canada‘s Colonization Policy. Every good Citizen of the Dominion Should Give the Matter Careful Study and Thought. 16 EGY" LnmEnNnt The wife of a careless man most a widow. According .to suggestions coming from Sault Ste.

One of the despatches inâ€" eonâ€" nection with the matter says:â€"*‘The question as to where the Soo Greyâ€" hounds will hang their skates is the question in hockey circles of the city. J. W. Gemmill, manager of the Greyâ€" hounds, who represented the Soo at th meeting held over the weekâ€"end at St. Paul, says that the Soo has transâ€" ferred its franchise in the league to Detroxt owing to lack of facilities and support here. _ The indications are that the Soo team will play under Deâ€" troit colours next year, but with otheéer development still under way, neither the managemnt nor any of the players wish to m#ke a stateâ€" ment.‘‘ *A _Mr. W. L. Macpherson returned last week from a visit to the Rouyn camp where he found business unâ€" usually good. He saw several former Timmins peoplke in the new mining town, and all dbing well.
