Mr. Taylor, who reeently had lived _ at South Porcupine, went to the West some weeks ago to work at the Sherrâ€" ittâ€" Gordon Mine.

He was only gone about 15 minutes before they wereâ€"searching for him as they expected him right back. He was a good bushman and for a time it was thought he would return all right himself. Men and airships seoured the country since to find him but the latest word from the West leaves him still missing. HMis brother, Mr. Wimn. Taylor, left several days ago for the Bherrittâ€"Gordon to assist in the search for him. Word this week from the brother is to the effect that Andy has not vet located.

It is an advance to have the forest fires blamed on only a section of the prospectors. There used to be an idea held by some that jrospectors generally started the bush fires through carelessness or to clear off the timber in the mining areas. Of course there was no proper foundaâ€" tion to this idea, the average prosâ€" pector being most careful in the matâ€" ter of fire. He has to be if he wants to keep on living, for bush fires enâ€" danger the lives of prospectors in the country just as much as anybody else.
