The town engineer further pointed out that the rates for the use of the weigh scales was ordered to be drawn up. The matâ€" ter of a new leader for the Timmins Citizens‘ Band was before the council the band sending in the applications for leader, together with recommendaâ€" tions, etc., and suggesting that the council make the choice. The matter was left in the hands of the band «committee of the council. Mayor Mcâ€" Innis being called away during the progress of the meeting, Councillor L. S. Newton presided for the remainder of the session as acting mayor. Phil Antoine asked the council about his chances to secure a restaurant license. He wanted to sell pie, sandwiches, tea, coffee and other food and to keep open on Sundays. The council pointed out that the restaurant license was only $1.00 a year, and if he could show the| chief of police that he had a bonaâ€" fide| Testaurant conducted on proper lines he . would secure the necessary license in the propéer way. J. P. Bartleman adâ€" «gressed the council in reference to the town‘s method of charging for thirtyâ€" three feet for connection to the sewers.‘ On one block of Spruce street, Sixth'r avenue and Pine street, the sewer maln‘ was only about 16 feet from the proâ€" | perty line, yet the property-owners' were asked to pay for the thirty-three' feet. On the opposite side of the road' only the one connection was necessary in each case, as this block was occu-f pied by the Catholic church and school | only. Thus about 24 property owners‘ were to pay double the actual cost, said Mr. Bartleman, while there were only two or three long connections to' be made. As he understood that the . town had agreed to make the connec- tions at cost, he thought the matter should be considered. Several other | propertyâ€"holders from the streets con-l cerned were also present at the meet-' ing. In reply, the acting mayor pomt- ed out that where the sewer ran down one side of the street (as it did in ( several cases) it would not be fair to. charge the owners on the far side for" the extra length of connection. The present plan was accordingly adopted!r as being the only fair one for all. In| addition the acting mayor pointed out |, that a case like that referred to would be offset by cther cases where it was L the other way round.

Or wxll Premier Drury find a way or means ,to help this country not to hinder? These questions remained without practical answer from the Drury Cabiâ€" net, but have been satisfactorily ansâ€" wered by the succeeding administraâ€" tion. Of the present provincial govâ€" ernment it may at least be said that a dogâ€"inâ€"theâ€"manger attitude has never been adopted. The government in practically every instance have been ready to do things, or failing that, to allow others to do them.

"The firemen had anâ€" other run on Saturday afternoonâ€"a chimney fire at the Algoma hotel. There was no damage done and the skilled use of the chemical tank made it unnecessary to turn on the water. The firemen had a practice run, as it were, Among the local and personal items |in The Advance ten years ago were the |following:â€""M. W. Summerhayes, forâ€" |merly manager of the Crown Mine |here, is visiting in the camp." "Monâ€" ‘day, Nov. 7th, is Thanksgiving Day this year in Canada. One of the things to be thankful for is that all the blue {laws have not been put back in force." "R. S. Taylor, of New Liskeard. was a business visitor to Timmins this wee‘t." "Angus McDonald, M.P., was a visitor to Timmins last week and had a wellâ€". attended meeting of the Labour party workers and others interested, the meeting being held on Sunday. He views his chances for reâ€"election as even better than his chances for clecâ€" tion in the first place. In any event he promises to put up a bonnie fight to again capture this seat in the apâ€" proaching election." "A sarcastic citiâ€" zen says that Timmins can send priâ€" soners down to the North Bay jail about as fast as prisoners can escape from the North Bay jail." "As will he noticed by advertisements in recent isâ€" sues of The Advance pasteurized milk can be obtained at King‘s or from the delivery wagons." "Mrs. A. Ayotte and little daughter, Yvette and young son, Gerald, left on Thursday last for a visit to Ottawa, Hull and other poinis east."~ "H. J. Baker, better known as Larry, left on Friday last for Winniâ€" peg, to visit his sister, Mrs. S. Robinâ€" son. He is not expected back until after Christmas." "Robt. McMillan, T. N. 0. conductor, and Miss Mary Mcâ€" Leéennan, only daughter of the late Mrs. Esther McLennan, of North Bay were united in marriage at North Bay last week. . a wedding tour in the South Mr. and Mrs. McMillan will take up residence in North Bay." "On Thursday mornihg last the fire briâ€" gade made a hurried response to a fire alarm sent in because of the appearâ€" ance of a chimney fire at the big boardâ€" ing house on Balsam street, just back of Feldman Bros. new store. It turned out to be nothing worse than a chimâ€" ney fire however. It was not necessary oc oc Nce e e O e t C Oe The Advance had an interesting and amusing item ten years ago in regard to a birthday party given at Rev. Fr. Theriault‘s to one of the members of his church. The chief item at the supper was a chicken bouillon hbhrecught to the Rev. Father‘s residence by those (organizing the party. When the party was breaking up after a delightful evening the supposed honoured guest lsza,id he had enjoyed the evening and lespecially thanked Father Theriault. However, he added, it was not really his birthday, any more than the visitors j had really supplied the chickens. It developed that the chickens had been lifted from Father Theriault‘s own chicken pens. The Advance concluded the story by saying that all concerned had a good laugh over the matter, Rev. Fr. Theriault joining in the laugh for the moment at his expense, and the others laughing because they would need practice in laughing as they had the idea that they would have cause later for some laughing when the genial Father Theriault turned the joke on them as he was nearly sure to do. ported as too ill to appear. A charge of assault and a charge of disorderly conduct against men respectively \named Peter both petered out when \they came to court. Geo. Watts, a noted character in the North, was fined $100.00 and costs, or two months, for lbeing drunk in Timmins. Six com-, mon drunks were fined the common | amount while two extra special drunks, each paid $20.00 and costs. A coloured] porter on the train was finea $200.00 and costs for illegally having liquor. The Advance ten years ago had reâ€" ference to the installation of a larger power plant by the Paymaster. The entire plant was improved and cularged and the buildings all steamâ€"heatcd and electricâ€"lighted, The Advance said. had never either directly or indirectly said anything that could be construed es a reflection on the North, and he ‘ienied the accuracy of an interview *' ven the press in the matter by Mr. MeEachren. Mr. McEachren had unâ€" mpzachable witness to prove the accurâ€" racy of his statement, leaving Hon. Mr. Grant in rather an undesirable posiâ€" tion. Mr. Grant‘s claim that his interâ€" view with Mr. McEachren was a priâ€" vate one was also disproved by the latâ€" ter who showed it was on public busiâ€" ness and conducted publiciy. Ten years ago The Advance gave much prominence to the evening vocaâ€" tional classes then being conducted here under the joint auspices of the public school "and the Dept. of Educaâ€" tion. The Advance emphasized the value of the classes to those who wishâ€" ed to better their education or to preâ€" pare for special lines of work. There were seventeen convictions in the police court one week ten years ago. One man who attacked an elderly genâ€" tleman in a lane and robbed him of a few dollars was sentenced to two years in the reformatory.

"Fears are entertained that two young men, each about 25 years of age have been drowned in the Groundhog river about five miles from Fauquier, west of Cochrane.

Ultimate possession 'of heavy gold reserves will depend in |Ia.rge degree on the balances of trade. ! When Britain strengthens her trade pocmon and her income from “serv1ces"{ ‘ to something like their former place, the gold holdings will be much larger. Canada, it is reported from Ottawa, is 'dlscouragmg the export of gold. It is important to note that the output of gold in Canada is increasing; hence we may look for an improvement in Ottaâ€" wa‘s gold possessions, if we leave out of account the maturity of securities which may have to be paid in gold. The further dispersion of gold from the United States, now apparently the result largely of sale of securities held in Europe, would operate teward evenâ€" ing up the world‘s wealth more fairly, and the outcome might materially speed business recovery.
