There was plenty _ of: visible gold and you didn‘t need a magnifying glass to find it either. This is another property in which many South Poreupine people are inâ€" terested. It was the original disâ€" covery of Red Lake, we believe. Acâ€" cording to geological situation the strike of the Howey should pass directly across the MeManus holdings. The dinner and concert given on Thursday last by the Cornish Welâ€" come Club was much enjoyed by the large number present. Mr. S. Sky efficiently acted as chairman for the occasion. A violin solo, ‘‘Home, Sweet Home,"‘ with variations, by Farmer, was a pleasing introduction by a young pupil of Mr. Brydges‘, Frank Calmeco. He gave **Trauâ€" merai‘‘ as an encore.

Word came to town on Monday of the supposed suicide of a young man in Cleaver township on Sunday afterâ€" noon. The details, we can gather to date (Tuesday), are that the young man, Jack Short, an Englishman, twentyâ€"two years of age, had come from Porquis Junction to take the job of cookee at the camp of the Mineral Areas Mining Syndicate in Cleaver township.‘ He had been working there for two weeks and on last Sunday, April Ist, had resigned his job and was coming into town.| Before leaving he had written letters: to his brother in England and anâ€" other at Northland, Ont., and it was ostensibly his idea to post these when he reached South Poreupine. About three pm. he said he believed he would take a walk out around the camp before leaving. When he did not return by supper time a search party went out and they found him only a short distance from the camp buildings, hanging from a tree with a threeâ€"foot piece of rope attached from his neck to the tree. There were no ofher tracks around but his own which led to the trunk of the tree. Then he had, evidently, climbed out on the, tree, which was a Jeaning one, and dropped from the end of it. _ No motive can so far be given for ‘the Brash act unless being unaceustomed to the loneliness of the bush his mind ‘had become unhinged. _ When the ; body was discovered word was immediâ€" ‘ately sent in. to Provincial Officer Craik of this place, who with Officer Brooks has gone out to the scene of the tragedy which is some twenty miles from here, over roads not very Now is the time to secure your Spring needs for the home.
