The weather on the Twelfth was ideal and the rain held off in very sat- isfactory way. The parade on the Twelfth imthe afternoon was a very impressive affair. There would be about a thousand in the line of march. The y.)resence of the Cochrane Orange Young Britons in uniform and of several Lady Orange lodges added interest to the parade. Among the Lady Orange lodges represented werezâ€"Timmins, Schumacher and Iroquois Falls. Mar- shall Chalmers, of Cochrane O. Y.

From present indications it is going to be a huge affair and rightly deserves the public patronage; During the time the Kiwanis Club has been in existence in 'I‘immins. they have estabo lished themselves solidly as an unselfish organization boosting the community and making their services telt in many visible as well as invisible ways. The Kamival is to be staged for the purpose of raising funds for the community service work of the Kiwanis Club in 'l‘immins. the under-privileged child department requiring continuous assis- tance. The Timmins Kiwanians are confident that their efforts will be ap- preciated by the public and that huge crowds will attend the carnival where they are assured of getting their full money's worth cf fun and pleasure as well as the opportunity to share in the many useful and valuable prizes.

After the parade the lodges and a large number of spectators gathered at the Timmins athletic grounds for a noteworthy programme of sports. ad- dresses and other items of interest. The programme of sports. games and ath- letics was a very interesting one and roused much interest. There were races and other events for members of the order and also open events of all kinds. In the feature baseball Tim- mins Juniors won from the South Por- cupine Juniors by a large score. A feature of the afternoon was the fine list of excellent addresses given by able speakers. The addresses were all of special interest and were listened to with evident appreciation. Among the speakers for the day werczâ€"Rev. Mr. Beazer, of Kapuskasing; Rev. J. D. Parks, Rev. M. R. Hall.

Archdeacon Woodall, Por- quis Junction; Jas. Birnie. County Mas- ter; B. G. Gosse. Grand Lodge Organiâ€" zer for Ontario West. The addresses were all brief but very pointed and interesting. In the course of his very brief address Mr. Kenning, M.P.P.. took occasion to assure the people that the Government was looking after the in- tercsts of the North in general and that the matter of the railway to Kam- iskotia, one of the needs of this par- ticular section, was practically assured. In the evening there was a very plea- sant and successful dance held in the I.0.0.F. hall to conclude the enjoy- ment of what was generally considered as a perfect day. Those in charge of the arrangements for the celebration of the Twelfth of July in Timmins are to be congratu- lated and commended on the all-round success achieved. a party of lady golfers visiting here from North Bay, and they will play in the 2-ba11 foursome here on that. day. Among those who should be in a posi- tion to know there seems to be a gener- al opinion of hopefulness in regard to the buildng of the railway from Timmins to Kamiskotia. It is understood that an difficulties are being adjusted in the matter and that the decision of the Government in regard to the building of the road is favourable. and that within a short time due announcement will be made officially to this effect. It was expected that official announce- ment in the matter would have been made before this. but the announce- ment is looked for any day now. It is understood that immediately following the announcement active work on the railway will be taken up if the decision is favourable as expected. some fifteen minutes at the scene of the accident and was sitting in his car. He did not notice the boy around and when ready to move he simply started the car. and did not suspect any chance of an accident until he heard someone call out to him. He did not move the car its own length before it was stopped again. In the meantime. hcwever. the little lad had been badly hurt. It is thought that} the most probable explanation is that the little lad. who had been noticed before on the street and walks on Pine street. had sat, down on the running board of the car where the driver would have no chance to see him. Probably his legs were curled under the running board and he was drawn under the wheels when the car started off. Mr. Ed. Les- lie was nearby at the time of the acci- dent and promptly picked up the in- jured boy and carried him to medical aid. At the hospital it was found that the youngster was suffering from a broken and twisted hip bone injury.

ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 3 w Ian Th mmbc 11 30C of Aeem'dina to word reaching here yes- terday John Ivanchuk. popularly known as “Cobalt." will be hanged at Hailey- bury jail to-morrow Friday) morning for the murder of Inspector Harrv Constable at Cochrane in October, 1926. After a long: and careful trial before Mr. Justice Wright at Cochrane last April. Ivanehuk was sentenced to be hanged on June 21st. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty. and the judge imposed the penalty. The evi- dence against him was very strong and included the testimony of several people who were unknown to each other. He had the benefit of a very able defence, Mr. Harry Fine, of Ansonville. putting up a splendid fight in his behalf. After his conviction it was reported that a number of his fellow-countrymen had contributed a fund for an appeal to be entered against the verdict. Mr A. G. Slaght was retained to assist Mr. Fine in the defence. The appeal was dis- missed at Toronto, and the only fur- ther method available was to seek a reprieve and permission for a new trial from the Minister of Justice at OttaWa. Mr. Slaght retired from the case after the appeal was decided. and Mr. Fine carried the case to Ottawa. Mr. Fine based his case to the Minister of Jus- tice. it is understood. largely on the idea that new evidence not available at the trial had been discovered and that this new evidence showed that Ivanehuie could not have been the murderer. The appeal court did not agree that this new evidence was im- portant enough to grant a new trial. Apparently. the Minister of Justice tool»: ’ similar view, as Mr. Fine was un ccessful in securing any further lay in the execution of Ivanchuk. / In referring to the case last night under the heading. “Cabinet has reâ€" {used commutation of sentence in the Ivanchuk case." The Ottawa Journal last week says:â€" “Commutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment has been refused by the executive council in the case of John Ivanchuk, sentenced to be hanged on Friday morning next. Ivanchuk is at present confined in the jail at Hail- eybury." EXPECIEB THAT IVANBHUK Wlll BE HANGED IUMURRUW No Further Reprieve Granted to Can victed Man “’hu is to Pay the Penalty of Murder of Inspec- tor Constable Last week it was understood that appeal had been made to the Minister of Justice for a new trial for Ivanchuk so that the new evidence could be heard. If The Ottawa Journal is cor- rect in the paragraph just quoted. it would appear that the request for a new trial must have been refused and it. would appear that appeal was then made for commutation of the sentence. This. too. would seem to have been un- successful and it would seem that Ivan- chuk will pay the penalty for the mur- der to-morrow morning.

BMHINB BEAUIY BBNIESI AI BIG SPORTS DAY HERE Copper Clifl' Baseball Team. Ontario Champions to Play Temiskaming Champions. Plans are now under way for one of the biggest sports days ever presented in the North Land. The event will be held at the Timmins athletic grounds on Wednesday. August 7th. and one of the big features of the day will be the visit here for the occasion of the noted Copper Cliff ball team. the Ontario champions. who will play two games with the McIntyre baseball team. the Temiskaming League champions. The contest between these two teams will be one to delight the hearts of all baseball fans.

It is ex- pected that this contest will gather to- gether a large number of the fair ones of the North. which will mean a real beauty contest. A number of other contests and sports are being planned for the programme and it is expected that the day will be one long to be remembered.

The injured man proved to be Eino Neimi- nien. a Finlander employed by Tanner‘s dairy on the Sandy Falls road. Neimi- nien was badly beaten about the face and head.

Session in Englehart Reference is made elsewhere to some matters to come before the meeting of the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade at Englehart on July Blst. Another matter that is likely to be considered is the important one of securing some method of guaranteeing the wages of men employed at new mines and prospects. The question is to -be brought before the Associated Boards by the Cobalt board of trade. which body discussed the matter some days ago. The Cobalt board pointed out that there were frequent cases where men were engaged to work on new properties or prospects and then were unable to get their pay. This was a serious hardship, and the Cobalt board suggests that some scheme should be worked out whereby individuals or companies who are operating prop- erties that have not reached the de- velopment stage should be required to deposit sufficient funds to guarantee the wages of the men employed for at least two weeks ahead. tively.
