Schumacher (one day) a Recreation Hall SCHUMACHER Ten years ago Timmins took its nunicipal politiecs without undue exâ€" citement or recrimination. The peoâ€" ple worked together at election time, as at other times, for the good of the town. In those days, as pointed out Thursday evening hy Mr. Matt. Boiâ€" vin, there was no evil group of selfâ€" seekers stivrring up differences of creed and race and striving to create separation and bitterness. Men were judged those days on their merits. All seemed anxious to serve the town rather than their own interests alone. In the election for mayor and councilâ€" lors for 1917, an acclamation was given to Mr. J. P. MeceLaughlin as mayor. and a simiar aceclamation was given ‘the councillorsâ€"A. R. GHlobe, Dr. H. Moore, C. G. Williams, Albert Brazeaw and Chas Pierce. Only five councillors standing, there had to. be a nomination and election for the. sixth place. Dr. J. A. Melnnis was elected by accelamation for this place a few days after the regular nominaâ€" tion.

Ten years ago The Advance recordâ€" ed the death of Pte. B. Nackogie, the Indian member of the 228th Battalion. He died from pneumonia at the base hospital at Toronto, and was laid to rest in Prospect cemetery with the Army‘s solemn and picturesque cereâ€" monies. It was first intended to take the body to the home of the late Pte. Nackogie at Moose Factory, James Bay by dog team, but owing to the difficulties of transportation it was finally decided to hold the burial serâ€" vices at Toronto. SHOn Ten years ago Mrs. E. J. Meyers purchased the drug and stationary store and business at the corner of Third avenue and Pine street from Mr. Chas. A. See. In referring to the transfer, The Advance said :â€" ‘*Mr. See, who is one of the North Land‘s pioneer business men, conâ€" ducted a successful drug store busiâ€" ness in South Porcupmc before .comâ€" ing to Timmins. His present plans su‘rgestod a permanent residence in Toronto, orâ€" some other southern point, arfd the many â€" business friends of Mr. See will regret his _ removal _ from â€" here, â€" while extending â€" best wishes forâ€" the suwecess of the new owner in this important _ business _ stand. _ Mr. Meyers had been in charge of the business under Mr. See forâ€" some months past. The new owner is wellâ€" known as‘ a capable and courteous business man, and few will doubt but that he will carry on the growing business with increasing success.‘"‘ For the year 1916 the: births in the town of Timmins totalled 124; there were 45 marriages ; and sixty deaths. The last Wednesday in 1916 was ‘acceident day‘‘ in Timmins. _ Geo. Mudato, a Russian, was blown ;to pieces at the Hollinger Mine in a blasting accident. _ Tony Mascioli, who was with him at the time, receivâ€" ed a bad shakingâ€"up but was not seriâ€" ously thurt. At the gravel pit Frank Slotnick met death by being buried alive in falling gravel. Slotnick had been in the camp only a short time, | his wife and four children residing at| Englehart. _ The third accident of the| day proved serious. but not fatal. Toni Mazuk, a mucker at the Jupitcrj mine, was crushed by a falling rock. His leg was broken, but he made good recovery from the aceident. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO ‘*sheoul"‘â€"meaning ‘"the _ grave."‘ The heading of The Advance put on the report of the meeting was:â€"â€" ‘‘New York Speaker Knocks Hell Out of the Church and the Bible." Speaking of the Tisdale elections, the same week Mr. (¢. B. Raymond, of Brooklyn, N.Y., a speaker for the In- ternatmnnl Bible Students Associaâ€" tion, delivered an address in the New Empire Theatre to an audience of aâ€" bout 150 or 200 people. The main idea of Mr. Raymond‘s address was that there is no ‘‘Hell,""‘ as people understand that word. The ‘‘*Hell" of the Bible, he claimed, was only things did not run so smoothly. There was a bitter election fight there municipally, but, as The Advance pointed out that at the time, "‘the Dickson Slate was badly hrol\on at the polls. Sylvester I\enned\ won the reeveship from E. G. Dickson by 37 majority. The councillors elected were Messrs J. T. Easton. J. E. Boyle, D. Mackie, and D. MceDougall. ‘‘Rabbi Levi,‘‘ said Father Burke. ‘* When are you going to become libâ€" eral enough to eat ham?"‘ ‘*At your wedding, Father Burke,"" Wilfred Crot Chemines, Quebec.

Fred Croteaun, miner, South Poreuâ€" A mostâ€"interesting and happy famiâ€" ly reâ€"union took place this Christmas at the home of Mr. and Mrs.: George Rich, Street, Powassan, when the ten sons of Mrs. Croteau came from as far west as the Pacific coast and the North West Territory, and distant parts of this province, to be with their mother and sister. Strange as it may seem. this is the first time that all the members of the family have been together, for the older boys had left the family nest to seek their fortune abroad before the younger members were born, and it is many, many years since they visited the scenes of their boyhood days. And a tine looking lot of brothers they are, tooâ€"all good samples of strong inâ€" tellingent Canadian manhood, and all doing well in their chosen occupation. It is a family a mother may well feel proud of. The editor had the pleasure of meeting them all, and the following are their names and address, beginâ€" ning with the eldest: FAMILY REâ€"UNION HELD AT POWASSAN CHRISTMAS The following is from the last isâ€" sue of The Powassan News :â€" The »ldest couple to vote at the municipal election in Timmins on Monday were\Mr. and Mrs. E. Richâ€" ardson, of 120 Commercial avenue. Mr. Richardson is 85 years of «age and Mrs. Richardson is 84. ‘They are both in the enjoyment of remarkably good health for their years, and are keen and bright and interested in all good things and in the progress of the town. Looking much younger than their actual years, Mr. and Mrs. Richardson voted early on Monday morninge. a little difference in the climate here and in Mesopotamia, some letters from him quoting the temperature in the far eastern spot as reading 130 degrees in the shade. The North Land in the winter time is not nearly so uncomfort ably warm.‘‘ ‘‘For the month of Deâ€" cember, 1916, the town police turned in $1,145.00 in fines to the town treasâ€" ury,"‘ ‘"Mr. John Nolan, who is in St. Mary‘s hospital, suffering from a badly fractured arm and other minor injuries inflected upon him by Ciro Guirino in an unexpected assault, is making splendid progress to recovery. His arm is in a plaster cast now, and he is making a good showing towards restored health.‘‘* ‘‘*Nick Dakuchitz was arrested very easily New Year‘s morning by Constable Salley, on a charge of carrying firearms. _ Conâ€" stable Salley heard the reports of a revolver and noticing the accused in the vicinity he gave chase. After a run he succeeded in making the capâ€" ture, finding a revolver on his prisoner As Dakuchitz may be an alien enemy the charge against him may be a seriâ€" ous one."‘‘ *‘*The New Year was welâ€" _comed noisily in Timmins by bells, whistles, and horns of different kinds; also by fireworks and a few revolver shots. _ A big crowd of happy but harmless citizens were out to give the glad hand to young Nineteenâ€"Sevenâ€" teen, and to say, Welcome to our city!"‘ In the excitement one of the windows of the Bank of Commerce building was accidentally smashed, but no other injury of importance occurred Only one arrest was necessary during the evening, and that was a supected alien enemy.‘‘ ‘*‘Bornâ€"In Timmins, Ont., on Thursday, Dec. 28th, 1916, to Mr. .and Mrs. Geo. Lakeâ€"a son."‘ ‘‘Mrs. T. J. Lawlor and som Arthur, left on Saturday for Sudbury. Mrs. Lawlor will return home in a few days, and Arthur will remain in Sudâ€" bury to take a business course in one of the.business colleges of that town."‘ HUSBAND, 85, AND WIFE 84 BOTH VOTE ON MONDAY to advance this particular good work. | _In the last week of 1916, the shareâ€" holders of the MelIntyre Mines Comâ€" pany met in Toronto and unanimously agreed to the merger that included the . MeiIntyre, Melntyre Extension and Jupiter. Announcement was also made that an option had been secured on the Plenaurum. l Among the local and personal items [ in The Advance ten years ago were [ the following:â€"*‘Fire Chief Borland, of Cobalt, had the misfortune to fall gat a recent fire in that town, and has been under the doctor‘s care as a reâ€" Fsult of the injuries received."‘ ‘‘Dr. O‘Gorman, Lieutenant in the Royal Army Medical Corps, and brother of Rev, Fr. O‘Gorman, of Cobalt, is home atter a year‘s service with the British forces in Mesopotomia. He will find justifies and rewards the effort carried on by many in Timmins and district | to advance this particular good work.
