THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The nominations for the township of Tisdale took place at the council ‘chambers on Monday, November 29th. There were four nominated for Reeve: â€"viz, Messrs. D. Kerr, (the present reeve); Schumacher; and J. G. Barâ€" ron, Schumacher; Mrs. J. A., Thomas, Triplex mine, South Porcupine; and Hugh Boyle of the Dome Mines, South Poreupine. For councillors fourteen were nominated viz:â€"Messrs. R. 8. skelly, J. E. Williams, J. G. Harris, wW. Craig, J. G. Barron and D. Kerr, of Schumacher; and Messrs. J. Reâ€" bertson, â€"(Dome), T. A. Strain, J. J. St. Paul, A. C Kincaid, Hugh Boylé, (Geo. Helmer, Jas. Boyle and D. Mcâ€" Lennan of South Poreupine. The Fruit Shower and Tea given at the Hospital on Wednesday, Nov. 24th, was a decided success in spite of very inclement weather, over sevenâ€" tyâ€"five quarts being donated. _ Mrs. more especially, the boys and girls, with her recital of ‘*Samuel‘s Proâ€" posal.‘"‘ Rev. F. Bain‘s violin solo as usual brought most enthusiastic applause. All the numbers were most heartily encored and the encores vory much appreciated. Short talks were given by Rev, R. 8. Cushing, of Timâ€" mins, and Rev. F. J. Bain, of the Uniâ€" ted Church, South Porenpine. _ Rev. Cushing spoke of the special services they were having in Timmins next Sunday in honour of having their Church there remodelled. _ He. was pleased with the progress made at St. Paul‘s here since it was bulit one yvear ago. : Rev. Bain spoke of the pleasure it chad been to work side by side with a s a man of Archdeacon Woodall‘s type. He said that the spirit of comradeship he had enjoyed _ with Archdeacon Woodall was something that he would not for anything have missed. _ Mr. M. Smith, the People‘s Wardeh, read the financial report of the chureh. There is a little over $1600 of a debt on the church and coffsidering the congregation here is small and the church was only built a year ago, this is a very creditable showing indeed. The fact that it was not greater Mr. Smith eredited to the fact that variâ€" ous private donations had helped out: considerably, as well as the work done by different cireles within the church. _ We believe that the financial results of the "#upper, though not known definitely, will be very satisâ€" Ffactory ‘to those concerned. As a social event it was certainly a most pleasing affair and credit is due to Mrs. E. G. Britton and her band of willing workers for â€" the succeessful manner in which it wasâ€" ecarried through. â€"Appreciation is also exâ€" pressed to Mr. W. Skinner, our local florist, who kindly loaned the flowers both for the decoration of the chureh: on Sunday and the dinner tables Monâ€" day; also the ladies whose good taste was responsible for the of the chureh, on this their Anniverâ€"| sarvy. | #@ ## N # w# #4 *4 + 4# ## % # *++ t# # ## #4 t# Lesle® ##4 # # # + 000000vo:oooooooo0000.-0..1000000.-00000000004000 -000“00000 0000000'00000000000000 o h s s o o se * s * * * 0000000000000000’0 t e hy tw ui ut 44 , 44. 44,04, 94 The Advance always thought that Mike Wernick â€"was the head of all the Lions Clubs, but The North Bay Nugget says that J. A. Sheedy hag been appointed district deputy govâ€" ernor of the Lions Clubs of the eastâ€" ern section of northern Ontario. The clubs coming under Mr. Sheedy‘s jurisdiction _ will include Sudbury, North Bay and Haileybury. All those present were most pleasâ€" ed with the way matters have been handled and they were informed that in the opinion of mining men generâ€" ally Duprat was conceded to have an excellent chancee of prming to be one of the hig producers of Northâ€"western Qucdbec. â€" Those present were further advised that the company had refused to entertain any overtures which have been ’mdo tthWh representatives of other‘" financial lnt(*l'('\t\ as the comâ€" pany is well financed and quite capable of taking care of all the developments planned by Mr. Houston. for the Swedish Electrical Company to start and it is expected that the machine will be on the property in the course of the next few days. A report was presented to the meetâ€" ing from Mr. Joseph Houston, Mining Engineer in charge, in which he statâ€" ed that everything was in readiness At a meeting ofâ€"the shareholders of Duprat Mines, called at Ottawa on Friday last to ratify and approve the byâ€"law passed by the board of direcâ€" tors for increasing the number of directors of the company to seven, the proposal was unanimously passed. Asâ€"a result Mr. Thomas Maher, of Quebec City, is added to the board of directors of the company. Mr. Maâ€" her represents very strong financial interests of, Quebec. In connection with Mr. Maher‘s appointment to the board it is worthy of note that there is a ncreasing interest in Duprat Mines throughout Quebec. Apparently foreed to migrate on account of the searcity of small game some aretic owls have been seen reâ€" cently much farther south in this North Land than is usual. â€" These aretic owls commonly live well north of the Transcontinental, being comâ€" mon around James Bay. Last week, however, one of them was noted near Tirmmins. â€"It was a big.fellow, with a spread. of about four feet from tip to tip of wings. Sitting on a fallen tree, an oldâ€"timer stirred it up by fling a stick of wood at it. The owl lazily streteed its big wings and flew away. This was the first aretie owl that this oldâ€"timer has ever seen in this vicinity in some sixteen years spent in the area from Cobalt north. ()thv arectic owls have been reported as‘ seen in this part of the North this winter. Of course, there will be all sorts of romantic yarns about signs of a severe winter, because the arctic owls are coming south. _ The fact however, would . appear to _ be that these birds are ~.1mpl\ striving to get in touch with small game so that they may eat e,rulmly. There appears to be a failure of the small game crop in the Far North this year, SWEDISH ELECTRICAL CO. TO START SOON AT DUPRAT T. Wright, president of the Hospital Auxiliary, and all those who planned this affair very much appreciate the response that was given by the ladies of the Dome and vicinity, as well as South Poreupine. A vyery pleasant social time was enjoyved, Mrs. Herman and Mrs. Dan MeLellan pouring tea, while various members of the auxiliâ€" ary assisted in looking atftter the comâ€" fort of the guests.

SOCIAL EVENING, DEC. 4th AT THE LANCASHIRE CLUB At the general sessions of the peace ai Cochrane last week, His Honour Judge Caron presided. The greater part of the time of the court was taken up with four highâ€"grading cases. In only one of the cases was a conviction reâ€" gisteredâ€"that ii' Mike Holgoviech, livâ€" ing on the T. N.0O. branch lime near Porquis ]unot;mn. He was sentenced to one year in jail. His Brother, George, was also faced by a similar charge but no mldem e was presented against him by the Crown. _ The other tho higchâ€"grade cases were agaimst P. J Nieman, of â€" South â€" Poreupine, and Paul Yuksanovitch, of Schumacher. The former was (~har«re(l with stealing zold ore from the l)nmo. and the lat- ter with illegally having gold ore in his possession. The jury in both cases brought in a verdict forâ€" acquittal Judge Caron pointed out to the jury that their verdict was not in dJine with the evidence as presented, that the facts presented were very conclusive and that the case had been ably and fully developed by the Crown. _ He suuuost('(l that the: jury had really dis« regarded their oath of pffice in rendâ€" ering <their verdicts in face of the cases as presented. In view of the tindings of the jury, however, the men were acquitted. _ In these cases the Township and Provincial police had done exceptionally good work, fairly and thoroughly building up the cases. Mr. 8. A. Caldbick, Crown Attorney, handled the cases at the court in very effective way. There were two other cases disposâ€" ed of, P.
