The fire started apparently in a box containing waste paper. This box was sitting at the top of the cellar stairs and before the fire was extinguished the stairs were considerably charred along the edges. â€"Whether the fire in the box started from some form of spontaneous combustion among the waste or whether from a cigare‘te butt or a live match that found is way in among the sweepings is not known. When the fire was first noted effort was at once made to extinguish it by the use of the hand extinguishers in the store. While these no doubt curbed the fire they did not put it out, but in the meantime a phone call had been sent to ithe fire hall. The fire brigade was at once on the scene and though by this time the smoke was very bad the brigade soon put out the fire by the use of the big chemicai tank. The big chemical tank has repeatedly proved its value and usefulness and on Tuesday the worth of this equipment was very evident. Not only did it put out the fire in short order and so eliminate ‘the danger. but in additicn the blaze was curbed with the minimum of loss or damage.

MInnis brought up the case of a boy who needéed special hospital treatment at Toronto, but whose wiâ€" dowed mother found it hard to finance the necessary trip to the city for the lad. The Kiwanis voted $25.00 to this good cause, which was the amount necessary to assure the boy getting the required treatment at the Toronto hospital President Rinn read a letter from Kiwanian W. H. Wilson thanking the club for its kindly remembrance of him at Christmas when he was confinâ€" ed to the house through injury receivâ€" ed in an accident at the rink while skating. At Monday‘s meeting Mr. J. McFadâ€" den again presided at the organ in the absence of W. H.

One of the specially pleasing features of the Christmas season this year was the singing of the Cornish male choir on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. There wer> twentyâ€"five or thirty voicss in this attractive choir and the choir was remarkable for the harmonious blendinz and balance ani fine muiâ€" cal effect of jthe group of singers. Individually the singers in this choir undoubtedly had outstanding merit, while as a choir the voiecss were so harmonicusly grouped that the effect was very pleasing indeed. For several years past the Cornish psople have favourgid the people of the town with the singing of Christmas carols and this feature has always been greatly appreciated. . This year, however, there was organization and preparation beâ€" forehand and the result was especially pleasing. On Christmas Eve the male voice choir sang on Pine streat in front of the Dominicn stores and literally hundreds of pesople busy on their rounds of Christmas shopping stopped to listen to the carolâ€"singzing of this attractive choir. The singing was apâ€" preciated for many reasons. To many it was particularly pleasing, bringing back memories of old times in the Old Country where carol singing is a f:aâ€" tura of every Christmas time. To others the pleasing novelty of this form of seasonable and enjoyable musâ€" ic was an added Christmas pleasure. To those who love music for iis own sake, the carol singers made equal apâ€" peal, for their music was assuredly good. On Christmas Eve the male choir sang all the popular Christmas caro‘ls and many that were new,to most people here. They also favoured severâ€" al pleasing songs of general typs. They visited also a number of homes where chey pleased all and recalled old memâ€" ories of older lands by their carolâ€"singâ€" ing. On Christmas Day the choir of twentyâ€"five male voices visited the St. Mary‘s hospital where the patients and the staff alike found genuine Christâ€" mas joy in the effective sinzing of the Christimas carcols by this gifted group of Cornish carolâ€"singers. The memâ€" bers of ‘the choir were delightsd with the kindly welecme given them at the hospital, while the Sisters. nurses and patients at St. Mary‘s were equally pleased by the kindne:s and talent of the vis‘jting choir. ished withoui clzunce of stariing again. The amount of damage caused by this fre can not be stated now, as the adâ€" justment has not yet besn made, It will not be serious, however, the chief damage being caused by the smoke.

On Monday evening the Ofldfellsws‘ hall was crowded to capacily, thse event being a social eveninzsâ€""Gentleâ€" men‘s Night"â€"arranged by the Ladies‘ Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion. The chief item of interest on the very large and enjoyable programme was ‘"The TLegion Lunatics" in their very humorâ€" ous skeich, "The Madhouse." This play had everyone in fits of laughter from start to finich and it was voted an even greater success than on previous presentation. The cast of the *"‘Legion Lunatics" was as follows:â€"Eiphick and Curtis, locsking for the finding of a job; Orms.im and Forrester, as medical officers; Pearce, the attendamt; Philips and McMillan, two mild cases; Nippers, looking for a figzht; Devine, looking for "her" husband, and findings same. All the players were outstanding in their character delineaticn and proâ€" longed and sincere applauce at the close of their skeitch. Songs were given during the evening by Comrades Cowan, Bellamy, Curtis, Trollope and Crans, and also by Miss Filley. All the singers sang effectively and well, and were much appreciated. Miss Tilley sangâ€"two popular sonzs in very pleasing way and was warmly applauded. Dances by Mr. Philips and Mrs. Harris, who gave the Highland FPliny in effective way, and by little Ruth McMillan and Maxines Burgess wellâ€"executed numbers that won great anplause. Little Miss Burgess made a very special hit and the general opinâ€" ion was that this talented little girl will win high place as a dancer in the days to come. Refreehments were served by the ladies, this feature being one of the specially enjoyed items on a programme that was all very pleasant. W. A.

Both Theatres Filled to Capacity on Moenday When Mr. Leo Mascioli Gives Free Treat to the Youngâ€" sters of Town. The first local bonspiel, the siub bonspiel, is to start on Monday next, Jan. 6th. There are three draws, as 4.30, 7.30 and 9.30 pm. Those wishing to take part in this bonspiel should HUNDREDS OF YOUNGSTERS FNJOY THE FREE MATINEES Next to Santa Claus himself the most popular man in town this week among the youngsters is Mr. Leo Mascioli. On Monday through the kindness of Mtr. Mascioli and the management of the two theatres in town the youngâ€" sters of Timmins had the pleasure of a free show that was greatly appreciâ€" ated and enjoyed. All youngsters in town were invited to the matinees a} the New Empire and the Goldfislds theatre on Monday afternoon, the proâ€" grammé to start at 230. Befors one o‘clock thers was a lineâ€"up of three or four hundred youngzsters at the Goldâ€" fields waiting to get in. By two o‘clock the hundreds had grown to a cauple of thousand children in front of the two theatres. The Kiwanis Club with its usual readiness to coâ€"operate in any good work, especially for the kiddies, had groups of members at both theaâ€" tres to chaperone and care for the youngsters. At the New Empire theaâ€" tre the youngsters were lined up along the sidewalk and marched in as orderâ€" ly and quistly as if on school parade. At the Goldfields the crowd was a little larger but was handled in excellent way and the crowd of youngsters gave a lesson to any similarly large group of grownâ€"ups as to the quiet and orâ€" derly way to act in a crowd. Deputy Chief of Police W. W. Orr, though off duty, came up to give a hand in act‘ng as guardian for the youngs.ers. The services of the members of the Kiwanis Club were invaluable, and though there was some noise, as the youngsters were nearly all healthy and well, there was no sign of. roughness, and practically no crowding even. The youngsters were all seated in the theatre without difficulty. Both theatres were filled 4o capacity. A few youngsters (probably twenty) were unable to gain admitâ€" tance to the Goldfields, but somse Ofi these were accommodated at the New Empire. Practically all the youngstors who turned out for the event were able to gat into one theatre or the <thcr.

PAID CIRCULATION LAST WEEK 2887 Stellar notâ€"minding, a good defence and teamâ€"work from start to finish combined ito give Porcupine Hockey Club its decided victory of 6â€"1 over the sturdy Eskimos of TIroquois Falls in the first league game of the season on Monday evening. The arena was wellâ€"filled for the occasion. Soft wea~â€" ther made the ice very heavy, the game in the last period being practiâ€" cally an endurance test with the Porâ€" cupine Hockey Club being the most enduring. Charles Roach, of Timmins, as referee handled the game. firmly, without fear or favour. In the first period, the play was fast and exciting with the Eskimos having a decided edge on the game. The good work of Sarjeant, however, kept the Porcupine sheet clean and the period ended scoreâ€" less. Proulx and Murray each got 'forced rest during this spasm. One 'mmfute and forty seconds were gone ‘of the second pericd when Fell by 'Weu â€"earmned goal opsned the scoring. ‘About three minutes after, Powers sat ion the puck sent in by Montgomery ‘from a scrimmage in front of his citaâ€" del. He no sooner raised himself than | the red light fiashed again for Porâ€" cupine but the Eskimos debated the decision. Roach changed the goal umâ€" | pire but gave the goal. Before thc close of this stanza Proulx and Mulivaâ€" hill combined for another counter. Murray, Lepine, Cross, Saunders, Fell Iand Proulx each got a penalty in this period, Jemmett‘s checking being parâ€" Jmcularly good when his team were two | men short. By the third period the arena brought memories of the old swimming hole. "Pity the poor sailâ€" ors this night!" was heard from a fan as the teams emerged on the waterâ€" covered ice. In forty seconds Pahey ‘removed the whitewash bruwh that semed hanging over the Falls and his | tiring team put on a new burst of enâ€" 1 Section â€" 8 Pages The next clach is at Iroquois Falls on Friday, January 3rd, the usual special itrain- accommodations being provided.

On Monâ€" day, December 30th, Mary Carmel, eldest daughter of Councillor and Mrs. Fred Laforest, became the bride of Stanley, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. David Harper, of Toronto, the Rev. Fr. Lagrevol officiating. Mss Alma Laâ€" forest sister of the bride, and Dr. Camâ€" eronâ€"Smith, of Kirkland Lake, were the young couple‘s attendants. After the ceremony a reception and wadding breakfast was held at the home of the bride‘s parents. The young bride, who was given in mariage by her father, looked lovely in a gown of turquoise blue moire silk, with hat and shoes to match, and wearing a corsage of roses, while her attendant was modishâ€" ly gowned in monet blue satin. The young couple left on the noon train for ‘Toronto. Goinz away the bride wore an ensemble of light navy blue crepe, with transparent velvet coat and vest of cream satin, with hat to match, and a seal coat with gray squirrel collar. Dr. Harper was one of our most reâ€" spected citizens while resident here, while the bride has lived here since early childhood, endear:mmg herself to all who kmnew her. Many beautiful gifts conveyed the congratulations of friemis while the best wishes of the whole camp go with them for "bon voyage" through life. They are taking up residence in Toronto.

Jemmett and Cross, of the Porkâ€" ies were both penalized amd SBpence called down loud applause when he atâ€" tacked the whole Eskimo team and was beat only by Powers.
