TUXIS AND TRAIL RANGERS 4 Timminrs; Trail Rangers played their first game in the T.BAA. Junior playâ€"offs on Friday night last but were forced to take a 6â€"3 defeat at the hands of the fast travelling Holy Name Junior team. Trail Rangers are unfortunate in that their star goalie is confined to the house with scarlet fever but their midget subâ€"goalie, Dunn, turned in wonderful game and but for him the seore would certainly have been much larger., Tuxis intermediates turned in a nice win, 4â€"1, against Holy Name Interâ€" mediates on Friday last in the first game of the playâ€"off series, Every man turned in a stellar performance and if they can repeat next Friday, the chamâ€" pionship is theirs, The Beaver Trail Rangers of Spenâ€" cerville, Ont., are the proud passessors of a beautiful table with an mlmd top. Cobalt Man Will Go . to Geneva Meeting e sSchumacher The Boys‘ Own Group held a highly successful carnival on Saturday night last at the local public school rink. All events were keenly contested espeâ€" elally ‘the barrelâ€"jumping contest, hockey game between Holy Name Club, of Timmins, and an allâ€"star Schuâ€" macher team was one of the high lights ‘of the evening, the Timmins team ~winning by 7â€"3 'soore.

He expects to be absent from Cansda six weS appointment a complete : who had re his name wa is said first to have learned of the matter quite casually while at his work at the O‘Brien mill where he has been employed for a number of years. Later he was called to the telephone and was asked by Hon. W. A. Gordon, speaking from Ottawa, if he would take the apovintment. Later the apâ€" pointment was formailly confirmed by a letter from the Minister at Ottawa.

His® opâ€" ponent was A. J. Konnedy, Conservaâ€" tive, but though Mr, McGowan was defeated he put up a good battle and heid the regard of even those differing from his politicial views.

Shuffieboardâ€"A Game for Your Group ‘The well known deck game has been transplanted to church basements and school rooms and real fun provided for recreation perieds. Making the paddle will involve a little handicraft. A handle about 4 feet in length requires a blade which will run smoothly on the floor. This blade about 1 foot in length is fastened to the handle at angle of about 135 degrees. The disecs which are proplled along the flcor are woodâ€" en and about 24 inches in diameter half an inch in thickness. At each end of the floor space the design is painted or chalked. ‘The first player attempts to propel his fipst disc into the squares in an effort to make the best score. His optinment then attempts to send that disc fiying out of the squares while scoring with his own. In singles, each player may use 3 or 4 discs. In doubles two dis;:s each will be enough. Paint the discs different colours to distinâ€" guish in the scoring. Teams and a schedule can be arranged within the "Kodak King" Takes His Own Life at Rochester grou People generally were startled this week to learn of the suicide on Monâ€" day of a second noted and wealthy man. The first suicide reported was that of Kreuger, the Swedish match king. The second was that of George Eastman, 77 years old, millionaire manufacturer, philanthropist and big game hunter, who shot himseif to death on Monday at his residence on East avenue, Rochester, N.Y. His death ocâ€" curred a few months after that of his close personal friend, Thomas Alva Dr. Audley D. Stewart, announcing that Eastman had shot himself after putting all attendants away from his bedside, said Eastman left this note: "To my friends: "My work is done. Why wqit,?” Dr. Stewart was Eastman‘s personal physician for many years. He said while Eastman, in illâ€"health for many years, apparently had reâ€" covered to a degres that was very enâ€" couraging to his friends "he apparently was in such a mental state that hs shot himself after sending all his friends from his room." A moment after they departed, said Dr. Stewart, they heard the shot and returned to find him dead. He was widely known as a genius of th> photographic indusiry, AArt colâ€" lector and ‘bigâ€"game hunter, as weoll as for his philanthropies. His benefacâ€" tions at the time of his death had passâ€" EFastman was a bachelor with no near relatives. He had been in failing health for a long time, but remained chairman of the board of the.

This might be in accord with the name of the town and the name of the cup. But what‘s in a name? In any event the twp Englehart rinks visiting here last week were unsucâ€" cessful in their attempt to capture the silverware. The following were the competing rinks on Saturday last, Timmins curlâ€" ers winning the contest and accordingly the Englehart trophy remains at Timâ€" mins : â€" Timmins still has the Englehart | Curling trophy. This cup has been in the possessim of Timmins Curling Club for the past two years and there is now good ho that the coveted trophy will | remain here for the present year and maybe for longer. F .

Why does Canada sell her large surâ€" plus of copper principtally in the Unitâ€" ed States, while Great Britain draws her supply mainly from ‘the United States and other foreign countries? T: it feasible so to arrange interâ€"imperia) trade that the surpluses of each of the of Canadian Institute of Minâ€" ing and Metallurgy will be Heilid at Montreal on April 5th, 6th and 7th. countries can be used to supply ‘the deficiencies of the others? These and other equally pertinent questions are containgd in the paper by Dr Charles Camsell, deputy minister of mines, Ottawa, entitled "Mineral Posiâ€" tion of the British Empire," which wil be the leading feature of the annual meeting of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy in Montreal. April;5, 6 and 7. â€"â€"Dr. Camsell‘s study of Canada‘s minâ€" eral resources in relation to those of the empire will occupy a central 1/ istâ€" tion in the deliberations of the forthâ€" coming imperial economic conference in Ottawa. Gold is another feature of the anâ€" nual mceting in Montreal. Geologists who have examined the new gold fields. from Island Lake in the far northeast of Manitoba to Pascalis township in the east end of the Quebec gold belt, wil‘ describe the features of these fields, where it seems likely that a number of new gold mines will be established. A high spot of the meetings will be J. Mackintosh Bell‘s paper on "Some Mineral Developments in Northern and Central Asia."‘ While in these parts recently as one of the Canadian deleâ€" sation to the Institute of Pacific Reâ€" lations, Dr. Bell took occasion to exâ€" amine some of the prominent mineral developments in Manchuria that give the Japanese such a keen interest in that country Death of Ovila Pigeon, Nearly Eighty Years Old On Thursday afternoon, March 10th. death came suddenly at Tianmins to Ovila Pigeon, aged 79 years and 10 months.
