The 438th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus was specially observed by the Timmins Council of the Knights of Columbus.. For Columbus Day, Oct. 12th, they had a programme of much interest and merit. Lucien Pare occupied the chair at the opening of the event uatil the arrival of J. D. MacLean. A feature of the evening was the address by Rev. Fr. O‘Gorman who gave a most interâ€" esting and inspiring address on the life and work of Christopher Columbus. Rev. Fr. Therriault also spoke briefly but effectively while Grand Knight Pay also gave a short but appropriate adâ€" dress during the evening. There was special interest in the musical proâ€" gramme for the evening, which was under the competent direction of J. B. Pare. From the opening ode by the K. of C. choir to the singing of "O, Canada" with the same choir leading, the programme was a remarkably good one throughout. Solos, in French, were very effectively given by L. Pare, Miss S. Charron and J. B. Pare, and there was a particularly attractive duet, in French by Messrs Lucien Pare and J. B. Pare. Solos in English by A. Kincaid, Mrs. Geo. Jenkins, and Mrs. J. H. Bacon were greatly appreciated. There were humorous songs by Messrs P. Larmer and F. O‘Rourke, these numâ€" bers pleasing all. A piano solo by W. G. Stefels and a violin solo by M. Rose were numbers that delighted all. Special mention should be made of the COLUMBUS DAY OBSERVED BY KNIGHTS OF CULUM/BU§ songs by R. Lowery, w companiment on the instrumental quartette Jenkins, M. Rose, A. instrumental quartette comprising Uueo. Jenkins, M. Rose, A. Fapone and H. McCulloch.

Pare played the piano for the number by Mrs. J. H. Bacon, this being one of the specially appreciated selections on the proâ€" gramme. The other accompaniments for the evening were very effectively played by W. G. Stefels and Geo. Jenâ€" kins, the work of both of whom at the piano was greatly appreciated.

Craik of South Porâ€" cupine, returned this week from a diffiâ€" cult trip on an errand of mercy, which they carried through with ability and kindness. On Saturday morning word reached town that a man named Joseph Magnon had died in his shack in the bush about twenty miles up the Redsucker river, in Childerhose townâ€" ship. Constable Hartliecb interviewed Coroner H. E. Montgomery and was authorized to make the trip and to see. after the burial of the man. . Conâ€" stables Hartlieb and Craik set out acâ€" cordingly on their arduous trip which had to be made part of the way by boat and part of the way on foot. They had about ten miles to walk from the river to Magnon‘s shack, but when they had gone about half the distance they met some men from the camp near Magâ€" non‘s place and these men gave the officers the information that Magnon was not dead but he was a very sick man and he was belag brought out in the hopes that he couldâ€"be taken to the hosplital. Men were carrying im [through the bush and if the officers would wait there they were told that they would be doing a ‘great service if they brought Magnon to the hospital. Accordingly, the officsrs waited and Iv;hen the men brought in Magnon, Copstables Hartlicb and Crafk took charge of him. They made him as comfortable as possible, both on the | stretcher and in the boat and made as |rapid a trip as possible to Timmins where the sick man was placed in the hoespital. His cordition is serious but his recovery is now hopsd for. Those who saw him in the bush did not exâ€" pect that he could possibly survive without expert medical and nursing lLcare and they did not think that he b Announcement was made that the speaker for the luncheon of the Timâ€" mins Club next Monday will be Rev. A. Lappaia, of the United Church Finâ€" nish Mission at Timmins. He will speak on his work in the town and district and the address is sure to be a very interesting and valuable one. Rev. Mr. Lappala‘s previous address to the Kiâ€" wans Club on his native land, Finland, will be recalled, and there will no doubt be a particularly good attendance on Monday. At the luncheon lIst Monday comâ€" munity singing was featured. Had Hard Trip to Bring / Sick Man to Hospital could be conveyed to the hospital withâ€" out dying on the way. The provincial police, however, did the good work as part of the day‘s service, and as a conâ€" sequence the sick man is now making progress to recovery. EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT BUT NOT A GOOD ATTENDANCE The entertainment put on in St. Anâ€" thony‘s parish hall on Tuesday evenâ€" ing deserved a much larger attendance then it received. The entertainers were the Barries, "the truthful enterâ€" tainers," as they term themselves, and their programme of magic and mystery was one of the best shown here. All sorts of tricks with cards, coins, boxes, etc., pleased those present while there was special interest in the very clever manipulation of handcuffs, and the acti, "sawing a woman in halves." Cecil Barrie showed himself a prince in the arts of th> magician while Lady Teeney was equally good in her parts of the show. While the comparatively poor attendance is to be regretted because so many missed a good show, it is stil more regrettable because the event was under the auspices of the St. John Ambulance Brigade,. Timmins Division, which is an organization deservmg of the fullest support.

Timmins Could Increase Busiâ€" from the North. A number of business men and others have this week approached A. F. Kenâ€" ning, M.P.P., urging that a daily freight service be inaugurated between Timâ€" mins and Cochrane. They point out that with the large contracts in proâ€" gress north of Cochrane there is parâ€" ticular need for the service that Timâ€" mins merchants, wholesalers and others can give to Cochrane and the north. On account of the mines and other inâ€" dustries here Timmins carries lines that can not be cbtained even in North Bay. The contractors north of Cochâ€" rane can get service from, Timmins that they can not oOtherwise get in the north. At present there is only a freight service to Cochrane from here three times a week. Were there a daily service business for Timmins would be very largely increased to the general satisfaction of all concerned. ‘The business possible at Abitibi Canyon is particularly worthy of note. It would appear to be a comparatively easy matâ€" ter to make the ‘rain leaving here at 10.05 am. a mixed passenger and freight train between Timmins and Cochrane, thus providing the daily freight service that seems desirable. The delay in delivery through the presâ€" ent freight service is a big handicap. Any merchants cor other business men who are interested in the matter should interview Mr. Kenning and give him any opinions or suggestions and any coâ€"operation possible in the matter with the view of improving the freight service. i The exhibition and carnival being jong as the moustache grows someâ€" presented by the Timmins Lodge of the| where on the face it counts.

His wife also frantically sought ofway to assist but was unable to help save her husband. The body was reâ€" covered after five hours of effort. Yhen the body was receovered it was found that the fishing line had become so entangled around the unfortunate man‘s legs that no doubt this handiâ€" cap had bsen in some measure responâ€" sible for the drowning. Big Water Lake is about twelve miles from Timâ€" mins and the body was brought to his home ‘hers> for burial. The late Isaac Latinen resided at 57 Sixth avenue. He had lived in Timâ€" mins for some eight years past and was wellâ€"known and highly esteemed here. There will be very general reâ€" gret at his untimely death. A widow and one young son survive and to these will be extended the sincere sympathy of all. The late Mr. Latinen had workâ€" ed at both the Hollinger and McInâ€" tyre mines and recently had been emâ€" ployed at the Dome at his occupation as carpenter. He was 39 years of age and was a native of Finland. He had been in Canada for the past fifteen years.

A letter was received from Sullivan Newton showing the town the proâ€" bable advantages from an increase in the amouni of indemnity insurance provided for and the addition in inâ€" surance to give indemnity in case of | property damage caused by accidents in which town employees may figure. The council did not feel it necessary to add ; the extra property damage indemnity| !features. it was decided to spend | ' the $170.00 extra premium and increase | the indemnity receivable from $5,000.00 ; in the case of one person hurt to $10,â€" lOOO .00 with $20,000.00 for two injured. | It was shown that in cases where damâ€" | | Y | | | iages were awarded to an amount °xâ€" iceeding the figure covered by the inâ€" | | surance it would be necessary for the | f municipality to contribute the balance ; of the amount awarded. Mayor Drew pointed out that one special good feaâ€" | ture of the :naemnity insurance ried was that it relieved the town of | much trouble and annoyance from ? | claimants for damages. There was some | question as to whether a couple of | | claims had been unfairly held up by | | the company, but it was considercd% | | I | 1 | i that these were perhaps simply held up | | until a mutual settlement could be made. "If the indemnity cornpanyl does not attend to all cases fairly," said Councillor Carson, ‘"it is not a good thing." He felt that no one should be left with a just claim unpaid simply; 'because of lack of money to fight the. | case in the courts. The company had 'always seemed fair in all matters of claims, and the two cases in question no doubt were capable of satisfactory ’ explanation. Something Should be Done to Assure Better Conditions at Cemetery, the Mayor Points Out. Town Buys Two Lots to Secure Good Grade of Gravel. Other Matters Dealt With at Council Meeting on Monday. The regular meeting of the town cocuncil was held on Monday afternoon, with Mayor Geo. S. Drew in the chair and Councillors A. G. Carson, Dr. Lee Honey, R. Richardson, Alfred Caron and J. T. Chenier present. In a letter to the council F. Valois, painter objected to the fact that severâ€" al hundred dollars had been collected from him "by brute force," as he phrased it, in taxes which he said had not been imposed on any of the other painters in town. He asked for a reâ€" fund in this connection. He explained that he did not conduct a shop or store any more than any of the other painters here. The matter was left over to the next council meeting, the facts of the case to be investigated in the meantime. B. Lennan called attention to a where a tenant was charged $1.80 water | rates more than the case called for. It was explained that this charge was for another house on the same lot, th’is’ being the usual practice. Mr. Lennan explained that the second house was not on the same lot, that it had the water installed now, but that the water was not turned on. house had received its water supply| from a well. Council decided under|‘ cil to consider suitable men for the cemetery board and to come to next meeting prepared to establish such board.

Help Out Unemployed With Any Odd Jobs Now H. C. Garner, of the Government Emâ€" ployment Bureau, says that there are many men here who would be very glad to have even a few hours‘ worl to help them out. If anyone in town has any odd jobs that they can pay to have done it would be helpful and kindly to call up Mr. Garner and have him send a man for the work. own Council Considering Appointing Cemetery Board ‘m’-fi””“m atr P stt BP lt P PA P stt | _ The matter of charging for the water to be supplied to Tisdale township for Gillies Lake and Moneta Extension townsites was again before the council. | After considering the matter the counâ€" charged Mr. Lennan also told council of case where the police had advised good tenants to get out of one of his houses. The tenants in the lower part of the house came under the notice of the police, he said, buit the tenants upâ€" stairs were good people, and he did not see why the police should interfere with them. Mayor Drew said that it would have been better had the matter been reported earlier, but it would be looked into. A gentleman in the auâ€" dience told of a case where it had seemed impossible to get the police to act to free a respectable neighbourhood from disorderly tenants. A number of tax and assessment matters were dealt with by the counâ€" cil and accounts and other routine business passed. Council decided to buy two lots in the southern part of the town for the supâ€" ply of good gravel available. The owner, Geo. Parsons, was willing to sell them for $150.00, though they had cost $500.00. . The town engineer thought the gravel was good and lots of it to be worth the price asked. The matter of a sidewalk on Kirby avenue for the accommodation of those going to the Moneta schools was menâ€" tioned. The appropriation for walks this year is exceeded, but the public works committee will look into the matter. The Canadian Legion was granted permission to sell poppies on their anâ€" nual Poppy Day, Nov. list. The matter of the reâ€"placing of the fiagâ€"pole at the cenotaph was discussed. Mayor Drew thought the pole should be in place for the Armistice Day events, even if it were necessary to simply put up a wooden pole for the present. The members of council thought the work might as well be done permanently now as to incur the extra expense of a temâ€" porary pole. An iron pole, similar to the one at the Hollinger, and guarded similarly from the weakening effects of water and frost, was favoured, and the town engineer is to look after the matâ€" ter of reâ€"placing the pole blown down this summer. : Mayor Drew brought up the matter of conditions at the cemetery. He thought the present situation far from creditable to the town and thought the best plan would be to appoint a cemeâ€" tery board as in other towns to assure proper conditions. He asked the counâ€" cil to consider suitable men for the cemetery board and to come to next meeting prepared to establish such board. A. Y. P. A.
