Was Highly Populay and Esteemâ€" ed Resident Here In addition to the bereaved husâ€" band, Mr. Gordon Thompson, conducâ€" tor on the T. N. O. freight on this division, a little daughter, Baybara, aged two years, is left to mourn the loss. (Mrs. Thompson‘s mother, Mrs. Sceott, resides at Schumacher. brother, residing at Toronto, and a sister at MacTier, also survive. To all of these the deepest sympathy of all is extended in their sad and sudâ€" den loss. The sad death took place on Friâ€" day last, March 2nd, of Mrs. Gordon Thompson, 30 James street, after an illness of only about a week. Death was due to pneumonia.. Mrs. Thompâ€" son returned three weeks ago from a holiday visit to California and apâ€" péeared to hbe in the best of health. About a week before her death she was taken ill and despite all that medical skill and éare could do, she passed away on â€"Friday last. The late Mrs. Thompson was born in England, coming to Canada some fifteen years ago. Until moving to Timmins some seven or eight years ago, the family lived in North Bay where the late Mrs. Thompson had hosts of friends who will mourn with those in Timmins at her untimely death. Yon, The funeral took place on Sunday, March 4th to St. Mattnew‘s Anglican church and the Timmins cemetery. Rev. R. S. Cushing, rector of St. Matâ€" thew‘s conducted _the services, which were very largely attended despite the inclement weather. : The pallâ€" bearers were Messrs R. Richardson, Gilbert Le@, Geo. Monoghan}; H. Hatâ€" ton, iClif. Thompson and J. Dalton. The large number of beautiful floral tributes evidenced ‘the wide circles of friends who mourned the death and sympathized with those bereaved.

INTERESTING PRIZES FOR _ DOG RAGE TEN YEARS AGD Considerable Difference in the Intrinâ€" sic Value of Awards in 1918 _ and Recent Years. Every year when the Dog Race event comes up for attention there is considerable discussion in reg@#@#d to the prizes to be given. . Each year there are some who wish to increase the value of the prizes. Their arguâ€" ment is that by doing so the event will be made a big one, will attract outside attention, and so make Timâ€" mins famous. One year this idea did result in the prizes being extended till they totalled $1500.00. The <reâ€" sults were searcely equal to expectaâ€" tions, however. On the other hand, those who have argued for more moâ€" derate prizes have, perhaps, been imâ€" pressed chiefly by memory of the days when the Dog Race was a â€"big eventâ€"â€" the sporting feature of the winterâ€" everybody taking part very evidently for sport‘s sake, the prizes being keenly sought, but certainly not for their money value. In 1918, for inâ€" stance, there were no money prizes at all. There was an array of prizes, but here is the complete list for the Dog Race that year :â€" V W __The A. R. Globe Shield (for comâ€" petition). _ a Handmade snowshoes, made by Mr. J. Salmon, of Fox Point, donated by the Northern Canada Supply Co. Limited. _ Handmade dog whip, made and doâ€" nated by Mr. C.

FODTBALL CLVE Finances in Good Condition an pects Very Good for Succes Season in 1928 The annual meeting of the cashire Football Club was held on Sunday, March 4th, in the Hollinger hall. There was only a small attendâ€" ance owing to the severe storm. Several items of business were transâ€" acted, the most important being the financial statement which was presentâ€" ed by the secretary, Mr. T. Richards. This showed as> follows:â€"receipts from all sources $775.04; expendiâ€" tures, $695.16; leaving a balance on hand of $79.88; thus showing that the club is away to a good start for the 1928 season. The president, W. Keâ€" van, and the secretary, T. Richards, both handed in their resignations to the club, and the offices were taken over temporarily by other members until the season commences, when permanent officers will jbe elected. The committee was appointed as folâ€" lows:â€"Messrs Foy, Jackson, Jopson, Michison, Hogeg, Kevan, Righy, Richâ€" ards. ~These are to added to as conâ€" ditions: warrant. â€" Several players have signified their intention of signâ€" ing for the club this season, and any players who would like to be associatâ€" ed with the club are asked to get in touch with any of the committee. Things look bright for a good season for the Lancashire Football ‘Nub. and the committee are commencing work immediately to make it the best in the club‘s history. TWO MEDALS IN EACH CLASS FOR HIGHLAND DANCING In connection with the Highland dancing competition to ‘be held at the big Irish concert to be given in the New Empire theatre on Friday evenâ€" ing, March 16th, under the auspices of the choir of the Church of the Nativity, there will be,two handsome medals given in each class, 5 to 9 years old and 9 to 15 years. . The medals are the kind that will be prizâ€" ed by the winners, and competition is expected to be keen. The judges will be Mrs. Mason, of Timmins, and Mrs. Mackenzie, of Schumacher, both ladies with a wide knowledge in Highâ€" land dancing. ‘All entries for these competitions must be made at Mr. J. T. Heffernan‘s store, Third avenue, hot later than March 10th, Saturday of this week. HOMER L. GIBsSoON CO. 67 YONGE STREET BRANCHES _ . TIMMINS BEKLLEVILLE COBALT ROUOYN KIRKLAND LAKE SUDBURY NORTH BAY @ COCHRANE Private Wires to all Branches For thirtyâ€"five yearys Edward Reno bas been a magician and in that time he has travelled all over the world, inâ€" eluding, India, Syria and Egypt. His name is by no means new to lyâ€" ceum committees. In fact he has apâ€" peared in many places for return enâ€" gagements, presenting a new proâ€" gramme each time. ANOTHER KIWANIS EVENT WEONESOAY EVENING NEXT Edward Reno, Famous Illusionist, With Wonderful Programme, at Another of the lyceum entertainâ€" ments sponsored by the Timmins Kiâ€" wanis Club will be held at the Goldâ€" fields theatre on Wednesday evening, March 14th. This will be Edward Reno, Expert Illusionist, one of the most entrancing entertainments of inâ€" terest, mystery and fun ever shown here. The proceeds of the event on Wednesday evening next will be as usual for the Timmins Kiw@nis Club fund for the underprivileged child. One of his performances that never fails to amaze his audiences is known as the ‘‘dove trick.‘‘ He burns a piece of common paper, and a dove rises phoenixâ€"like from the ashes. He apparently tears the dove in two, _only to find that he has two doves in his hands. He throws a glass of wai ter into the air, and it changes into a dove and flies away. Not the least enjoyable feature of Reno‘s performance is the running fire of comment with which he enâ€" livens everything he does. These fagmentary remarks aye full of fun and wit, with flash after flash of goodâ€" tempered satire aimed at himself or his work. He is a man of fine perâ€" sonality and engaging stage presence with a keen mentality and an artistic appreciation of the success he has achieved in his profession. The press speaks in the highest terms of the entertainment given by Edward Reno, and the committees in the various centres where he has apâ€" peared are superlative in their words of praise. He is acknowledged to be one of the greatest in this line at the present time. * Tt Reno is constantly inventing new things in magic and illusions, also in foreign lands he picked up many things not known to many professionâ€" als. Magic like everything else, ‘has progressed with rapid strides during the past years. Never was there a better demand for upâ€"toâ€"date illusions and sleight of hand than now. Reno has the usual light parapherâ€" nalia, but performs his tricks while in ordinary evening dress, and so adroitâ€" ly as to escape detection in every case. In this respect he is a wonder. He does things that seem absolutely impossible of execution withoutâ€" the aid of supernatural agency. In a performance two hours in length he is.able to spring one surâ€" prise after another on his audience, keeping all in a state of breathless wonder and delight until they forget to note the flight of time. The fact that many of these tricks are invenâ€" tions of his own adds interest to the entertainment. A member of the Legislature in the cdurse of a speech last week quoted figures purporting to show the inâ€" crease of drunkenness under the L.C. A. He mentioned North Bay, and Mayor Banner at once wired to conâ€" tradict the figures which he said wa@re absolutely incorrect. _ ‘‘Police court records show police court cases 50 to 60 per cent. lower than under Ontario Temperance Act."‘ e h e TORONTO, ONT.
