N.0O. to build a new subway. This matter had been before the counâ€" cil and the railway before. _ Until 1925 the T.N.O. always evaded making a deliberate promise as to when the work would be started. In 1924 and 1925, however, the council pressed them so hard in the matter that a definite promise was made to do the work in 1926. The â€" promise, of course, was fulfilled last year. The 1926 council attempted to take the credit for having this work done but all conversant with council and board of trade activitiese for the past ten years simply larghed at this claim of the 1926 council. Another matter before the council ten years ago was the consideration of ways and means to have the fire insurance rates in force for the town reduced to a bearâ€" able limit. Chief Borland‘s report showed that there had been only two calls for the brigade in the month of May, both of the calls being for chimâ€" ney fires that did no damage of any moment. The fire department generâ€" ally, he reported, as in good shape. en Yrarsa Ago in Ctmnmtits PHONE 112 Residence PHONE 135 Fromr paTA IN Porcurm® ADpvyaANCcE FYLES 6~:~2~:~:%W%:»:%“:“:“:“:“:“.Vw:n.‘“:»:-‘:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~x~:~:~:~:~.-' ; ago one of the subjects on at the town council s the wmatter of inducing . to build a new subway. had been before the counâ€" â€"railway before. _ Until T.

Town Foreman MacLean reported that several houses lacked water service shutâ€"offs inside their cellars. It was pointed out in reply that the waterworks byâ€"law reâ€" quired all services to be equipped with shutâ€"offs. Mr. MacLean also referred to cases where sinks were used withâ€" out cesspools or proper dramage, in some cases the waste water runnuing under the houses, to the danger of the public health. This was also against the byâ€"law. *‘It is another proof of what I told the council before,""‘ said Councillor A. Brazeau, *‘‘The town needs a plumbing byâ€"law. It is the only town of its size that I know of that hasn‘t such a byâ€"law. Anybody does plumbing here and does it any old way.‘‘ Foreman MacLean agreed to the necessity for a plumbing byâ€" law, and he was asked by council to draft a memorandum of what should be in such a byâ€"law. Ten year ago, Rev. J. D. Paterson, rector of St. Matthew‘s church, Timâ€" mins, resigned his charge here, and left for Toronto. In referring to the resignation The Advance sad.â€"*"*It is understood that Rev. Mr. Paterâ€" son‘s action was prompted by the belief that he had not the fullest coâ€" operation, sympathy and support of all members of his church. Rev. Mr. Paterson has many friends in the North Land, who esteem him very highly for his ability and earnestness and who will consequently regret very much his resignation here."‘ The new Junior Judge for Temisâ€" kaming, Ais Honour Judge Hayward, presided at the sittings of the Divisâ€" ion ‘Court. at South Poreupine on Thursday, May 30th. On behalf of the bar, Mr. J. E. Cook welcomed His Honour to this district and conâ€" gratulated him on his recent elevaâ€" tion to the bench. Other barristers and solicitors present made similar expressions of good will and good wishes. In replying, the new Judge expressed his appreciation of the kindly welcome, and promised that he would endeavour to follow the good example of Judge Hartman in giving honest ond inpartial administration of justice in the district. There were over 200 cases before the court,â€"many of them garnishee cases,â€"all handled with signal efficiency and fairness by the new Judge. Mr. E. H. Hill acetâ€" ed in court for the first time as Divisâ€" ion Court Clerk, and succeessfully showed his special capabilitiee for the position. a 4 s s Timmins always tried to be a clean, sanitary, safe and tidy town. Just as an evidence of the desire for tidiness, the following paragraph from The Adâ€" vance of June 6th, 1917, may be quotâ€" ed:â€"‘*This morning Town Foreman MacLean placed on Pine street the first consignment of cans for depositâ€" ing of waste paper, etec. Merchants and others are asked to use these reâ€" ceptacles for the disposal of serap paper, etc. The idea is to keep the street clean and tidy and also to avoid the dangers that arise from papers and other waste blowing around. on the thoroughfares. _ Every citizen should make it a point of honour to use these receptacles for waste paper, such as newspapers, wrappers, cireuâ€" lars, envelopes, ete., etc., so earelessly thrown on the streets. _ As soon as filled, the cans will be emptied and reâ€" placed by the town. If the plan reâ€" ceives the coâ€"operation of all the citiâ€" zens it will prove another forward move in showing a neat, tidy and safe town.‘‘ _. Tisdale township couneil had a busy session on June 4th, 1917. _ Reeve Sylvester Kennedy was in the chair, and Councillors J. T. Easton, D. Macâ€" kie and J. E. Boyle were present. Three ‘new lights were ordered for Moneta streets, two for Schumacher and four for 8. Poreupine. Reports were received from Inspector Donoâ€" van at Moneta and Inspector W. Rayâ€" croft at Schumacher relative to saniâ€" tary matters. Councillor Easton callâ€" ed attention to dairies operating without permits to sell milk. Inspecâ€" tors were instructed to warn owners of dairies that their cattle must be properly herded and not allowed to roam at large and that other provisâ€" ions of the law must be observed.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Reference was made in The Adâ€" vance same months ago under the heading of ‘*‘Ten Years Ago in Timâ€" min‘‘ to the assault upon John Nolan, night watchman at the Vipond. The man found guilty of the assault was sentenced ten . years ago .to eight months in jail awaiting trail. At first he was charged with attempted murder and so held for the spring assizes. However, as Mr. Nolan madse a complete recovery from the imjuries received, though it took some time for this, the charge was reduced to one of assault andâ€" Magistrate â€" Atkinson made it a year, with the four months already spent in jail to count as part of the sentence. â€" Solicitor Cook made an eloquent plea for the aceused man pointing out that it was a case where bad liquor had prompted an otherâ€" wise pretty good fellow to commit an act of folly and roughness. Soliciâ€" tor Cook had everybody in the court room, including the goodâ€"humoured Mr. Nolan, himself, feeling sorry for the accused man. If it had been left to the vietim of what was a very seriâ€" ous assault, it is likely that Mr. Nolan would have dropped the matter after the clever appeal of the solicitor, but Macgistrate Atkinson, after careful reâ€" view of the ease, looked over lhis glasses and made it a year, with a third of the time counted as served,â€" thus blending justice and mercy, as usual in his court. The Advance ten years ago found the trail of the big war in nearly everything. Here is one paragraph from the district notes:â€"‘‘The three new ears purchased in St. Lowus some months ago for the Nipissing Central Railways, to replace the street cars burned in the recent ear barn fire, arrived at ,North Bay last week. ‘‘They look as if they had been through Vimy Ridge battle,"" said Superintendent K. MeDonald. Perâ€" haps, he would have been nearer the idea if he had said that they looked like a Belgian church after the Gerâ€" Speaking of the war, nearly. every issue of The Advance ten years ago had references to the neverâ€"ceasing work being done by the local patriotic societies, such as the Timmins Red Cross, the D.Y.B. Club, of Timmins, the South Poreupine Patriotice Socieâ€" ty, the Schumacher Red Cross and other valuable organizations. _ Here is a sample paxagraph from The Adâ€" vancee of June 6th, 1917 :â€"â€"*The memâ€" bers of the D.Y.B. Club met at the home of Mrs. M. A. Ellis, with a large mans had visited it. Every bit of brass and copper had been taken oft the cars, and it will take weeks to get them into shape. It seems that the cars were lost in Chicago for a day or two, and it is thought that the copâ€" per and brass were taken off at that time. Perhaps, the U.S. pacifists did it;"" year‘s assessment on the roll that had been omitted in 1916. Inspector Rayeroft suggested a curfew bell byâ€" law for Schumacher and Moneta and the council took the question under consideration. On motion of Counâ€" cillors Boyvle and Mackie the clerk was authorized to buy $10 worth of Maedonald‘s chewing tobaceo and have same forwarded to the members of the 159th Battalion C.E.F. â€" Byâ€" laws regarding traffic on highways and bridges, an® other matters, were giver their required readings and passed. Among the local and personal notes in The Advance of June 6th, 1917, were the following.â€"‘‘Mr. A. K. Utâ€" tley, one of the Empire‘s soldiers who has done his part overseas, is opening a tailor shop in Schumacher. He is a brother. of, Mr. F~ Y. Uttey.‘ ‘*Iroquois Falls continues to prosper and progress, one of the latest eviâ€" dences of this being commencement made on the macadamizing of the streets in that hustling new North Land town.‘‘ *‘‘Nincere sympathy is extended by all in town to Mr. and Mrs. Barney Durack in the death of their little baby girl on Monday. Margaret Adel Durack was only ill since â€"Thursday. She was nine months old at the time of death. Death was due to acute gastroâ€"intesâ€" tinal toxaemia.‘‘s ‘‘Mr. Chas. Pierce is fixing up a new office for himself at the rear of his store. His growing business in the department store, lumâ€" ber and other lines, and his faith in the future of Timmins has prompted him to equip a modern new office that will meet the needs."‘ ‘"*At the trap shooting on Monday the following scores were made out of a possible 20:â€"K,.
