The Sudbury Star last week reâ€"proâ€" duced the following item from its fyles of 19 years ago:â€""An attempt to smugâ€" gle intoxicants into the new Porcurine camp via Bisco was nipped in the bud by Provincial Constable McCurdy. The smugglers were fined $55 and costs." A somewhat serious fire broke out at an early hour on Monday morning, at the Schumacher Provision‘ Stores in the upstairs apartment. The fire had made a good headway by the time the local firemen arrived on the scene. Unfortunately the fire alarm failed to sound its call and the firemen were somewhat delayed by this failure. They were, however, very soon in acâ€" tion once they arrived and under the nfost able leadership of Fire Chiet Jucksch they were soon masters of the fire. The internal part of the building was badly damaged. Great credit should be given to the firemen for the most able manner they handled the situation and in saving the building from being completely destroyed. It is understcood that the loss is covered by insurance. Mr. R. L. King; honorary viceâ€"presiâ€" dents, Messrs Shewan, Cosser, Denny, Skavlem, Keeley, Wookey, and Urquâ€" hart. All were unanimously elected. It was decided to form a fourâ€"team leaâ€" gue comprised from various departâ€" ments of the mine, namely engineer and main office, mill and shops, No. 11 and No. 5 shafts. The league is to be known as the "McIntyre Softball Leaâ€" gue." All members are to be emproyees of the company, and it is to be hoped that a suitable trophy for the winners of the league will be secured. The opening game will take place on June l14th. The Schumacher Softball club openâ€" ed their season on Monday last, when they entertained the team from South Poreupine. There was a good crowd out to support the home team, but their efforts to rouse them up to good standard of tilay was all in vain, the men from Porcupine proved to be too much for the locals and ~went home easy winners by 12 to 1. The Rev. I. E. Kennedy accompanied by his wife and family left on Friday by motor for Toronto. pase of organizing a mine softball leaâ€" gue which was largely attended, and a great deal of enthusiasm was shown. Mr. Grant in his usual efficient manner hanmdled the business of the meeting in a very businessâ€"like manner. After briefly outlining the purpose of the meeting he called for the election of officers. The following «officers were elected for the ensuing year:â€"Hon. president, Mr. R. J. Ennis; president, Mr. W. Morgan; secretaryâ€"treasurer, The annual meeting of Excelsior Ladies softball «club ‘took place last Thursday in the basement of the Unitâ€" ed Church when Miss Bruce presided After a very interesting report was read and undinimously adopted, the chairâ€" man called for the election of officers for the ensuing year.

It is mleasing to see Miss G. Shaflâ€" ner has just returned from Timmins hospital where she has recently underâ€" gone an operation for tonsilitis. We all wish her a quick receovery to health. DAMAGE TO SGHUMAGCHER STORE FROM FIRE MONDAY A special attraction will take prace at the Trinity United Church on Sunday noaxt when the Cadets of Schumacher will conduct the service on Sunday next, this being observed as FPathers Day. It will be remembered that the C.G.LT. Girls conducted the service on Mother‘s Day, with great credit. The Cadets are now going to show their worth and they will have something good in store for your special notice. Singing will be rendered by the boys and some adult members of ‘the choir. The numerdus friends of Mr. Fred Dwyer, our popular livery man, are glad to welcome him back from hosâ€" pital again and extend to him their best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery to health. Mr. Jack Sandwith has been a visiâ€" tor to town and renewing acquaintâ€" ances. A meeting of the Softball fans was held in the MceIntyre Recreation hall on Thursday of last week, for the purâ€" Mcintyre Mines Softball League Formâ€" ed. Cadets at Schumacher Church on Sunday. Other News from schumacher Correspondent Schumacher, June 4th, 1930. Spceâ€" cial to The Advance. Miss Mary Jacksic, of the Bank of Commerce staff, left on Friday for Deâ€" troit and other places in the United States for a vacation. Miss B. M. Cooper, of the McIntyre office, returned to her home on Sunday after spending a very enjoyable vacaâ€" tion at Montreal and other places down East. Ohe Dorcupine Aobpancre There has been a continuous increase in development since the beginning, except during the pericd of about four years following 1918. The development of power has been in advance of deâ€" mand, except in the Porcupine area, for a prriod of about two years preâ€" vists in 1923. The first Hydroâ€"Electric power was used in the mines in 1906. During that year power was suprlied to Internaâ€" tional Nickel Co. by the Huronian Co., subsidiary of the International comâ€" pany; to the Mond Nickel Co. by the Wahnapitae Power Co., and to the mines of the Michipicoten area by the Algoma Power Co. A contract was completed in April, 1930, through the Hydroâ€"Electric power commission for the purchase from the Hudson‘s Bay Power Co., a subsidiary of the Abitibi Power and Paper Co., of 100,000 horsepower. The developâ€" ment is located at the Canyon on the Abitibi River, 65 miles north of Cochâ€" rane, and the power will be transmitâ€" ted approximately 240 miles to the mines at Sudbury. The discovery of gold in the Red Lake area has extended the field to the extrems western end of the province. The cost of transportation of fuel to the Howey Gold Mines, located about 100 miles from the railroad, would be excessive. The development of power by the Hydroâ€"Electric power commisâ€" sion of Ontario will supply the means of operating mines in this area. The first demand for power in the mining industry was in the nickelâ€"copâ€" per area. This was followed by reâ€" quirements of Cobalt, Porcupine and Kirkland Lake mines. The expansion and new developments in the nickelâ€" copper mines have again opened up adâ€" ditional markets in the Sudbury area. A bulletin on the Hydroâ€"Electric deâ€" velorment for the mining industry of Northern Ontario, prepared by A. R. Webster, inspector of mines, has just been issued by the Ontario department of mines. The report deals in Getail with the various companies operating in the North. During the past three years expanâ€" sion of the mining industry in Northern Ontario has resulted in a greater deâ€" velopment of waterâ€"power than in any corresponding « ppriod in its history. There has been an increase of 62 per cent. in turbine capacity since 1926. These placardsâ€"there are 30,800 of themâ€"bring haome to the tourist the many dangers which may result Jrom a carelessly thrown cigarette butt or an unstamped campâ€"fire. The vast timâ€" ber areas which are to ‘be closed to all travel between April 1 and October 15, will shortly be specified orderâ€"inâ€" council of the government, and the plaâ€" cards will be concentrated im and about these areas. MINFES DEPARTMENT GIVES BULLETIN ON HYDRO POWER Every possible means of combatting fire hazards in Northern Ontario are being taken by the Forestry Branch of the provincial Government, and as ons phase of their fireâ€"prevention work, an entirely new series of placards have been issued at Queen‘s Park for disâ€" tribution im the North Land. PLACARDO® TSSUED TO GIVE WARNTINXG REGAKRDNG FIRE Abitibi Canyon, the wonderful spot of natural beauty where power is to be developed for transmission to Sudbury's big industries. A party of newspapermen and others visited Abitibi Canyon last week and greatly admired the grandeur of its natural beauty. TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JUNE 5TH, 1980 Abitibi Canyon, North of Cochrane "The biggest and best yet, is the foreâ€" cast for the annual district meet in the Ontario Schools‘ track and field chamâ€" pionship tests to be held at Amelia Park on Saturday next. Indications at this early date point to a large and reâ€" presentative gathering of Northern Onâ€" tario student athletes for that event. The Collegiate, as has been the custom, will enter a strong team, while the city public and separate schools will be well represented. Sault Ste. Marie will be represented by at least three boys, thanks to the interest shown by. the Kiwanis Club of that city, while Sudâ€" bury, Chapleau, Capreol and Sturgeon Falls are other centres in the western hemisphere which purpose sending competitors. From the northern part of the district come lads from Cobailt, Haileybury, New Liskeard, Kirkland Lake, Timmins, South Porcupine and possibly two or three other centres. The southern towns included in the district have yet to evince an interest in the annual meets, but it is expected that Powassan will given leadership to the Parry Sound District centres this year. M. L. Troy, in charge of the meet, is confident that the new cinder track being laid at Amelia Park will be in excellent shape for the event. A fast track and suitable facilities for the staging of the field events will greatly assist the competitors in atâ€" taining the standards." Another party sent out by the Onâ€" tario Forestry Branch is stationed at Tilden Lake studying the pinge regenerâ€" ation problem as it applies to that parâ€" ticular district. The object of observaâ€" tions made by this party is to deterâ€" mine whether the species is growing in again naturally or whether reforestaâ€" tion will be necessary in the reâ€"claimâ€" ing of that section of Canada‘s forest lands. "Observer‘"‘ writing in The North Bay Nugget last week says:â€" EVENT SATURDAY TO BE SPECIALLY GOOD OCCASION The strip survey of the Temagami Forest Reserve, begun last year, is beâ€" ing carried on this year and since about two thirds of the work is completed, will likely be finished about the end of August. The strip survey system is a very accurate means of determining the timber value of any woodland. Strips of land thirtyâ€"three feet wide are laid out at intervals of twenty chains, a quarter of a mile apart, across the breadth of a township, which makes 24 strips of land six miles long and 33 feet wide interspersed at intervals of a quarter mile across the other dimenâ€" sion of a township which is six miles also. These strips embody one fortieth of the land or 2.5 per cent., aad by takâ€" ing account of thg number of kinds 0: trees on these strips a fairly accurate picture of the township can V drawn. The work of caring for the forests of Northern Ontario is going on this year in the usual manner. The force of fire fighters has not been augmentâ€" ed to any extent, but the addition to the wireless telegraph equipment has facilitated communication with some of the outlying fire fighting stations. Making Survey of the Temagami Forest Area Wolf Riverâ€"15 miles past Dorion, burning up slash and undergrowth. A large fire, involving much standâ€" ing timber is reported to be burning at Greenwater Lake near Kashabowie. In regard to the above it may be said that several are missing since the fires began. People fied from their homes as fire hit the district. Some of the settlers in the area are believed to have perished as the fliames struck their cabins or houses. The present rains are helriing to lessen the danger from the fires in the Port Arthur area. Jacques Townshin, Mocose Mountain â€"fire threatening some pulpwood camps. Onon Lakeâ€"undergrowth fire, Two Islands Lake, behind Surprise Lake, 27 miles from Port Arthurâ€" Malcolim Cochran‘s summer cottage burned. but a large force of men keeping fire from spreading, between 80 and 90 men being in the gang.

Hanes, Elk Lake, deputy fire rangers, lefi North Bay on Sunday for Port Arâ€" thur equipoped with two pumps and 6,â€" 000 feet of hose to help combat the forâ€" est fires in that vicinity. Last week the Foleyet correspondeni of The Northern Tribune had the folâ€" lowing paragraph which will be of more or less general interest to readers of The Advance:â€"‘"There is great talk going on of a raillroad from Kapusâ€" kasing to Foleyet, and a motor road from Capreol also. Everyone in town is hoping :that these roads will be acâ€" complished in the near future, as they will mean assets in every way to the three towns. Many pseople in town have cars, but there are very few roads on which to drive." NORTH BAY AREA NOW SAID TO BE FREE FROM FIRE MENACE TALK ABOUT RAILROAD FROM KAPUSKASING TO FOLEYXYET 7. $ 0C j John D. Gregorie, of Hamilton, was »sterday. arrested at North Bay while transportâ€" inz 90 gallons of alcbhol in an automoâ€" tanding | bile en route to Sudbury. He pleaded several ) pruilty on Friday last to a charge of breach of the Liquor Control Act, but â€"fores® | claimed that the automobile was owned he SOYâ€" | by a friend who was not aware of what it was being used for. Harry Barassi, > known | of Hamilton, claimed the car to be his m Lake| property, and made the plea that he ly Over ) had loaned it to Gregorie simply in friendly way and without knowing the burning | illegal purpose for which it was to be used, This plea, however, was unsucâ€" north | cessful in court at North Bay, and the car was confiscated. Gregorie was on fountain | Monday fined $250.00 and costs or three ulpwood | months, and one month additional. He vth fire,| seemed to be surprised at the jail term ing fire] but the incident will likely have a disâ€" 90 men | couraging effect on others who may be inclined to fool around with traffic by Ssurpris? | moter car in liquors, said traffc being \rthurâ€"} contrary to the LCA. Harry Barassi cottage | also appeared to get a surprise when the same magistrate at North Ba‘y conâ€" Dorion, | fiscated the car. It will be noted that wth. | his was an expensive and unpleasant _ standâ€" | method of transporting liquor. It cost burning| all told:â€"$250.00 and costs or three rabowie. ‘ months, one month in jail, and the may be! confiscation of the automobile that had nce the| been used in this illegal transportation n their| of liquor. It seems to be remarkable some of | that any Sudbury man should puss so leved to| many other places without purchasing acktheir'nquor and should go to North Bay or it rains| farther for a consignment of liquor, er from | despite the brewery warehouses so a. ccnvenient in the North. | The Dome pressed from the kickâ€"off ‘and gave the Cornish defence a hard l test but it held up. Taylor came down ‘and passed to Tonkin. «A Dome player handled and a penalty was awarded. Salter took the kick and Jemmett made a sensational save going full length on the ground to reach the ball. Dome took <the ball down and Richmond made a fine in only to be stopped by a heavy charge. The Cornish backs were using their weight at this time, Richmond and Aspin needing the atâ€" tention of the St. John men. Dome were having matters their own way, but Rowe was in good form and kept the ball out. A Cornish attack looked very dangerous, Salter and Tonkin both tryâ€" ing hard. Rice was bought down by | Coopkr and Referee Cadman awarded a | foul against Cooper. An argument enâ€" sued, ending by the latter player being ordered off. End to end play followed and the game ended 0Oâ€"O. Convicted of being in possession of 17 beaver pelts illegally, W. Herman, of New Liskeard, was fined $200 and costs and the car with which he was transâ€" porting the fur was confiscated. He was fined an additional $10 and costs for speeding in his endeavour to elude officers. He was arrested Sunday afâ€" ternoon and came up for hearing Tuesâ€" day. FINE, JAIL TERM AND LOSS OF CAR FOR BREACH OF L.C.A. GORNISH AND BOME TEAMS PLAY 1O A NOâ€"SCORE DRAW Football Match in Local League Under the N. 0. F. A. One of the Best Seen Here for a Long Time. The football game on Tuesday was one of the best seen for a long time. The Cornish and Dome were the conâ€" tenders and the game ended in a draw Cornishâ€"Rowe, goal; Hooper and Sloman, backs; Youlton, Oliver and Rice, halfâ€"backs; Drew, Salter, H. Tonâ€" kin, Taylor and Doddridge. Aépin would have been more effective on the wing for the Dome. A. Cadman refereed a hard game in good style and his words of warning to the spectators should be heeded for the good of sport in the camp. Domeâ€"Jemmett, goal; Goodman and Blair, backs; Cooper, Harrower and White, halfâ€"backs; Mitchell, Aspin, Richmond, Ford and Doran, forwards. Refereeâ€"A. Cadman. The field was very muddy, but the teams elected to play and the Cornish cpened by pressing. Dome were holdâ€" ing back but Aspin and Mitchell comâ€" bined and Aspin tried a shot but Rowe was on the job. End to end play folâ€" lowed, and Tonkin tried Jemmett who drew forth applause when he cleared the shot along the ground. Both teams then settled down to business and some clever football was witnessed. All the players were giving of their best and the crowd was shouting encouragement. The Dome defence, Goodman and Blair were playing a fine game, the first half endingz 0Oâ€"O. Both teams played good football and with slight improvements will be hard to beat. Salter seemed out of position in the Cornish forward line and should be given his place at centre back again.
