At the regular monthly meeting tf 'the Toronto Humane Society last week ling the animals endure. Under pre- [sent conditions. however, they do not ’deny that animals often suffer in the traps. In this part of the North Land ‘practically nothing but the smaller fur-bearing animals are sought by traps. Animals not wanted often are ‘trapped. and the trappers use every plan possible or probable to avoid this. They find no pleasure in the suffering lor death of animals that are not need- ed in their line of business. So far as 1.}.

As a matter of [fact the trapper to-day is just as anx- iious as the Humane Stciety to mini- mize the suffering of the animals lcaught. and if the Humane Society iaould centre effort on the invention of (traps that would lessen the suffering of ’tne animals caught it would be only the very odd trapper wht would not [give them the heartiest co-operation and support. Probably all but a very few trappers are humane and kindly in their feelings and regret any suffer- traps and the location of the bait. etc.. is that the animals will be caught by the neck and so suffocated more or less quickly and with a minimum injury to [the fur. The desire not to injure the [fur would make the trappers anxious to avoid the sort of thing featured by Mr. Wilson, even if their humane feel- ings did not prom 3!. them that way. and it may be said that the average trapper is humane and kindly like the most of people in this country. So far as The Advance can learn many of the trapped animals zare caught by the neck or body and their sufferings are not long. Others caught by the paws suffer longer and have to be killed. perhaps. by the trapper on his arrival. Trappers usually make the rounds of ‘their traps as often as possible and so spare the captured animals any un- lnecessary suffering. There are times. however. it is admitted, when a deep fall of snow or other cause may keep the trapper away for some days and a 'captured animal may suffer as a con- sequence. The trapper is always seek- ing ways and means to avoid this sort {of thing. The caution and cunning of {many of the wild animals of the water ‘ and forest often tempts them to careful {approach and much pawing around the traps and in such cases there is a likelihood of the animal being caught by one of its front paws in the trap. The average trapper tiles to avoid any [cruelty and is albays ready to consider 'ways and means for guarding as much as possible against animals suffering ini Iunnecessary way. { Trapper: Try to Minimize Any Cruelty Involved but Impossible to Avoid Suflerlng to Animals at all Times.

He died three hours later. He told the doc- tors attending him that he was going to clean the rifle in readiness for the hunt the next day, but he could not say how the accident happened. It is thaught that in handlxng the gun the unfortunate man in some manner or another struck the trigger and the gun discharged.

The Northern News last week says:â€" )|“Claimed as one of the most danger- _!ous death-traps in Northern Ontario L the crossing of the Nipissing Central , Railway at Swastika was the scene of _la near fatality at 130 pm. last Thurs- ; day afternoon when the engine of the l Rouyn passenger train struck a Ford _ roadster driven by Stuart Perry, an ' employee of the Lake Shore Mines. The car in which Perry and Miss Ella Gau- 7 thier a maid at the residence of Miss : Oakes. Kenogami. were riding was _ struck by the “cow catcher" and jam- .[med against a guard fence at the south llside. Both occupants of the car were taken to Kirkland hospital, where it . was found that Perry had two broken ribs and other internal injuries and Miss Gauthier, a cut on the knee. The; latter left the hospital the first of the; 3 week, though the driver of the car will ‘ gnot be able to leave forthree weeks! {On the day in question a rain whichl gresembled sleet was falling and Perry :had the sides on his car.

This action allowed the' D Baptiste Lake is within the limits of the Indian reservation and the near- est house to the cabin of the former chief is about a mile and a half away. The cabin has not been disturbed by the Indians since the chief passed away. It is occupied only occasionally, and not always is the music heard. The music usually comes after anyone "using the cabin has retired for the night. The men who claim to have heard the uncanny music say that they were not at all frightened or alarmed in any way and they suffered no eerie feeling. When they would wake up and hear the music they would simply won- der where it came from. In the morn- ing they would strive to explain the music of the night before. One fav- ourite theory was that it was radio, but lagainst this it is argued that there is not a radio set in all that part of the éMatachewan area. The nearest radio i is so many mil-es away from that cabin [that it is impossible to explain the ‘music by any possible wireless theory. IWhen the cabin was first investigated 4| it was found just as it had been left I I ! at the death of the chief. There was a violin with broken strings, some children‘s toys. and a number of skins, and that was about all. There was no harp and nothing in the line of a radio or gramophone or other form of canny or uncanny musical instrument or re-4 producer. The Indians think it takes lthe supernatural to explain the music; i and many of the prospectors are alleg- ‘ | ed to hold somewhate similar ideas. In i any case no reasonable explanation had been made of the matter up to last. week, but the majority of prospectors in the Matachewan area seem inclined to piass the matter off with a laugh. “Likely, it’s just another of those ad- vertising dodges," said one prospector i when asked about the matter. In any i. case it is attracting some attention to Alma township, so that is not so bad. What The Advance is watching and waiting for is to note what will be said , about the matter in the “Grab Sam- ples" column in The Northern Miner. It looks like the sort of affair that would make appeal to “Grab-Samples.” and the comment in that column is sure to be witty and entertaining. ANOTHER ACCIDENT SHOWS SWASTIKA CROSSING DANGER Matachewan has gold all right. That is admitted. Now. it is alleged that the new gold camp also has a ghost. or ghosts, or at least ghostly music. In the township of Alma in the Matache- wan area there is said to be a melody- haunted cabin on the shores of Baptiste Lake. Unseen hands play‘unearthly music on invisible instruments at un- heard-of hours. If the music were un- heard. that would be all right. perhaps. but it is claimed that many people have listened to the music in this cabin with- out being able to explain where it comes from 'or how it happens. Wil- liam Forrest. a Cobalt mining man, is credited with telling the story first in regard to the weird music. He says that Frank Wilder, of New Liskeard, or Tom Powers, of Cobalt, can and will support his story. All these men, and others as well, according to the stories told by Mr. Forrest, have heard the ghostly music in that cabin. Strains of music. the origin of which could not be traced. sometimes filled the cabin, the music swelling to great volume at times and at other times fad- ing away to delicate tones that could be little more than heard. The men referred to are understood to claim that they were told by the Indians in the Matachewan area that the cabin was at one time the home of an Indian chief. This chief died ten years ago. In life he had played the harp and the theory of the Indians is that he still comes back occasionally to play the in- strument, although dead ten years and the harp is gone. The men who have been hearing the music from the haunt cabin do not agree with the idea of the Indians. They say that if a dead Indian were playing a harp, it would not be on this earth, and if it were elsewhere, about the last place for the music to be heard would be the Mata- chewan gold area.
