It is believed that the careâ€" aker, after putting on a fresh fire, did ot allow time enough for the gas to i1 off the coal "before closing the "af‘s and the explosion occurred from this cause, rather than, as was at first supposed, from allowing the water to run too low in the boiler. "When the explosion occurred the fire brigade was summoned and made a quick run to the scene. As the Paâ€" lace and the new Cathedral are built in conjunction, with one central heating plant, it was feared that if a fire folâ€" lowed it would spread through the whole fine structure. However, the damage was confined to the basement and, although the brigade laid a line of hose, it was not necessary to turn on the water. "Fire Chief Marcella stated that he could not definitely ascertain the cause cf the explosion, as the boiler was so badly wrecked, but he believed it was from the gas. The basement was filled with steam and it was difficult to gain an entrance on this account, but the men made sure that there was no danger from fire before leaving. The main walls and partitions are all of concrete and stone and there was little or no wood in the basement. The explosion was rather severe and hauses in the vicinity were shaken and the windows rattled. The alarm was not great, however, as the fire bell only rang three times, and it was generally supposed that there was nothing serâ€" lous. The reason for the short alarm was that the bell rope broke and no time was wasted in repairing it until later.‘" 1928â€"Englehart, after trailing for the first five relays, came home in front. This race was run on a muddy course at Kirkland Lake. Rain was falling during the race and conditions were not of the best. S. Edwards ran the two miles in 9.50, making the fastest time. The following composed the winning team: D. Korman, W. Gray, O. Vernon, W. Henderson, S. Edwards, T. Butler. Kirkland Lake ran second and Haileybury third. 1929â€" McIntyre Athletic Club of Sschumacher won for the second timg last year. The race was held at New Liskeard under ideal conditions. The winning team was as follows: R. Cavâ€" erley, J. Barron, R. Robertson, R. Hamilton, H. Paice, W. Ade. Kirkland Lake finished in second place and Monâ€" teith Academy third. 1927â€" Race was run on road from New Liskeard to Cobalt, won by Mcâ€" Intyre Athletic Club, Schumacher, with the following runners: P.

PREVIOUS WINNEKRS OF THE NORTHERN NEWS RELAY RACE The following are the winners in pasi years of The Northern News relay racs, which was run this year at Monteithâ€" In its issue last week The Haileyburâ€" ian gives details of the explosion at the Bishop‘s Palace, the explosion resulting in the wrecking of the hsating plant and other damage being done. The Haileyburian saysâ€" | sAays CUSTOMS OFFICE NOT WARRANTED AT KIKRKLAND Recently business men and others a*l Kirkland Lake and in that district nave | made representations to Hon., W. A‘ Geordon that there should be a customs office at either Kirkland Lake or Sv»a-‘ stika for the Kirkland Lake camp. At| present the nearest customs office is at| Cobalt and this proves very inconvenâ€" ient for the Kirkland Lake camp. Coâ€" balt is sixty miles from Kirkland Lake and neither train connections, mail service or auto travel are so frequent| or convenient as to make a Cobalt| customs office any sort of ideal headâ€" auarters for custems business for the Kirkland Lake camp. Years ago Timâ€"| mins had a somewhat similar experâ€" ience to what Kirkland Lake is having toâ€"day. In those days the greater pari of the goods passing through the| customs in this camp was destined for! Timmins but the customs office was located at South Porcupine. At first the tendency here was to demand that| the customs office be moved to Timâ€"| mins, but this did not receive general support here. The attitude adopted ; here was that the business at Txmmmsl justified and demanded the establishâ€" ment here of a customs port, irrespecâ€" tive of what might be required e‘se- where. On this idea the matter was | fought along for years until eventually ; Timmins did secure its customs office. In the case of Kirkland Lake the Deâ€"| partment of Customs and Excise does’ not think that at present the business! in the Kirkland Lake camp warrants the establishment of a customs office Mr. Ryckman, to whom Hon. Mr. Gordâ€" on pased on the request from the Kirk -l land Lake camp, informs the Tec:;‘. township council that for the pre:en.' at least their request in this resprec!| can not be granted. | Heating Plant Wrecked at the Bishop‘s Palace Fort William Timesâ€"Journalâ€"Ths suggestion has been made by a reader that the work of taking the census of population in Canada, which is due in 1931, be done during th> coming winter and so help in creating employment No doubt quite a small army cof capable workers released from summer jobs, could be enrolled in the work of consus taking and if the work of crganiz‘ing could be started in the late Fall of this taking and if the work of crganiz‘ng could be started in the late Fall of this year the foree could be out on the jJob carly in the new year. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO oms office| N Mr. Gordâ€" | O the Kir}:-‘ the Teck | h ha present| 8 ais rospec{t| g Taking the Star‘s own figures for it, the matter assumes very serious | proportions. If there are 150 British | subjects supporting this vicious docâ€" it is safe to say that there will be several hundred more of aliens of |\ the least desirable class who will also t be supporters of the destructive policy iof communism. Its whole aim and ! purpose and principle is against all inâ€" ‘herent ideas of the British. If there lare 150 British in Sudbury who are | deceiving themselves or fooling others ‘in the advocacy of communism, it is i time that proper action should be taken lto clean up the undesirable situation. \Vlith five thousand citizens of Canada to back the communist peril and hunâ€" | dreds, perhaps, thousands more, of misâ€" iguided aliens following this evil and | harmful line of policy, the case is one \that should receive the most careful I t I I Figures gathered in regard to the number of communists in Canada do not rightly show the actual ssiutation in regard to this menace. For inâ€" stance The Sudbury Star points out in an editorial aricle that there is no imâ€" mediate menace of communissm threatening the Dominion of Canada, if the situation may be gauged from the number who voted for communist candidates in the recent Dominion elecâ€" tion. It should be emphasized that the figures from the recent election give no proper basis from which to draw any right deductions in regard to the communistic danger. In the first place, only a few communist candidates were in the campaign, and only very small proportion of those following the comâ€" munist flag voted for these candidates Take Timmins, for instance, if it came to a matter of votes here there would be very few cast for a communist candidate should one run in an elecâ€" tion. At the same time the communâ€" ists can muster a parade here that will include several hundred people. They have done so in years past, and may do so again. The reason for the difference between the vote and the parade so far as numbers are concernâ€" ed is that in an election only British subjects have a vote, while in a parade all sorts of foreigners, men, women and children can take part. The fact of the matter is that the communist doctrine toâ€"day is making its only inroads on the foreigner and on the children esâ€" pecially. This makes it a double menâ€" ace. In discussing the matter, The Sudâ€" bury Star says, editorially:â€""No imâ€" mediate menace of Communism threatâ€" ens the Dominion of Canada, if the situation may be guaged from the number of "Reds" who voted in the last federal election. Out of nearly 4,000,000 electors who placed their crosses on the various ballots on July 28, there were only slightly over 5,000 who indicated their preference for Communistic â€" candidates. Sudbury, with 150 or thereabouts, contributed a little more than its share of these, based upon population. While Comâ€" munists in Canada are very few, they are active and make quite a lot of noise. They lose no opportunity to foster class hatred, with the object of ultimately fomenting a civil war whereby they can destroy our form of government and subsitute their own. Their scant numbers, however, should not be perâ€" mitted to throw the government off their guard. It is important for the government to keep informed as to what the Communists are doing, so as to be prepared to meet any situation which may arise." 34 ) t MENAGE OF GCOMMUNISM IS MORE REAL THAN IT SEEMS The Fact That the Majority of the Communists are Not Citizens of Canada Makes the Situation Only the More Serious FERGUSON HIGHWAY SHOULD | BE ON TRANSâ€"CANADA ROUTE q attention from all thoughtful citizens (From The Haileyburian) The Haileyburian has received this week a letter from the Chapleau Board of Trade in regard to the transâ€"Canada Highway route, the question which has been engaging the attention of the North Country over long period. This letter urges that a conference of representatives of the various parts of the area affected by the route be held with the idea of arriving at a solution of the differences in regard to the route. The Chapleau men make out good case for their own section of the counâ€" try, and no fault can be found with them for that, but, frankly, we do not believe that there would be any good purpose served by a conference such as they suggest. The communities along the T. N.O. and the Ferguson Highâ€" way have gone into the question thorâ€" sughly, have come to the conclusion ‘that they have the right idea of the transâ€"Canada route, taken from all angles, and have presented this to the proper authorities They have no quarrel with any other section of the North in rezard to highways or any other matier, but hope that all will be served in time. They are convinced, however, that when the road is built the logical route for economy settleâ€" ment,. speed of construction and general grod business sense is that suggested, namely cover the Ferguson Highway ‘hrough Cochrane and Hearst and on to the west.

"Environment moulds character. Tragic circumstances evolve heroes. I vividly remember Fred Jackson, quietly and unostentatiously telling his story of conflict with Nature‘s forces. Withâ€" out exaggeration or boastfulness, he reâ€" treated from one vantage point to anâ€" other, slowly and stubbornly backing away from the fumes Oof the deadly gas; how he turned on the air and directed it against a plank to cause the current to rebound; connected lengths of hose in an attempt to blow the smoke away; and how he cut his smock into four pieces and unselfishly gave his companions a piece to place over their mouths. "My light was only alight about half an inch. Zolob put it into his lamp and fixed his lamp and got a light, put his packet on his back, took a piece of blasting stick about four feet long, and he said: "‘I try." I says:"God bless: you.‘" He. says.. "‘I. try. go . out. Maybe I die, maybe not." I says: "Don‘t go, George."

In reportâ€" ing the circumstances of the presentâ€" ation it was said that this was delayed in consequence of lack of the necessary information as to his work. Judge T. E. Godson, of the Mining Court, in submitting his report of the investiâ€" zation which followed the fire, speciâ€" fAcally referred to Jackson‘s heroism in ‘erms which leave little doubt as to the mj»ression made by the evidence subâ€" nitted.
