A Timmins man, returning from a visit to Toronto, had occasion to stop at Porquis on the way through and saw the fire., At the time, it was too hot to approach, but the body of Seâ€" wale could be seen inside. At that time, the Timmins man did not notice that the nead was missing. Stove Explosicn? The explanation of the affair apâ€" pears to lie in the fact that Sewale was in the habit of getting waste oil from a nearby service station with which to start his fire. On the night in question, he hag been up very late and it seems probable either that he spilt oil while lighting his fire or the stove exploded. Porquis Junction‘s "murder mystery" is classed by police simply as an unforâ€" tunate fatal accident. The charred reâ€" mains of Sam Sewale, described as a Russian farmer, 53 years of age, were certainly found in the ruins of his home near the highway at the juncâ€" tion of the Ferguson highway and the Timmins road early Friday morning. How the story spreag that Sewale‘s head had been severed from the body is not definitely known, but it is preâ€" sumed that since only the torso was left after flames swept through the little farmhouse, someone jumped to the conclusion that murder had been done, and many of. the.outside papers carried a sensational story about proâ€" vincial police staging man hunts and seeking the "slayver.‘" Porquis Jet.

A meeting of a number of interested people was held at the home of Mrs. Darling on Tuesday evening angq a committee apâ€" pointed to take up the matter further. It is now practically decided to start the Y.W.C.A. here, but there is also a desire on the part of many to have a branch of the Y.M.C.A. as well. With so many young people here, it is beâ€" lieved that branches of the Young Woâ€" men‘s Christian Association and the Young Men‘s Christian Association would be of special service. The first eventâ€"the opening service of the combined branchesâ€"took place in St. Paul‘s church, South Porcupine, last Thursday evening. Over seventy young people were present from Cochâ€" rane, Iroquois Falls and Timmins and conducted the service, with the Rev. Canon Cushing preaching the sermon. After the service they were entertained by our South Porcupine A.Y.P.A. in the parish hall.

Giroux made camp and kept a fire going day and night, it is understood. He, too, was ill when the rescue plane arrived. The McIntyre mine made every efâ€" fort to locate the men, but the job was made more difficult because they were not on the trail they were expected to be on. Though the men hagq provisions to last six weeks when they left to go into Chibougamau, it is understood â€"that food ran out some days before Duke Schiller, famous North Country pilot, saw the smoke of their fire and was able to rescue them. Peterson, who was ill in the bush, was able to leave the hospital Tuesâ€" day, and Giroux also is now able to be up and around, Suffering somewhat from exposure, John Peterson and Ed Giroux, the two McIntyre prospectors who were lost in the Chibougamau area for more than two weeks, were brought to Timmins on Friday and are now well on the way to recovery.

Rev. Murray Tait introduced the guest speaker of the evening, G. A. Macdonald, who spoke on one of the fathers of confederation, the topic being selected on account of the nearâ€" ness of the Dominion Day event. Atâ€" tempt was made to portray Sir John A. Macdonald by means of stories and anecdotes illustrating his wit, his huâ€" mor, his literary gifts and his talent as a statesman. Reference was also made to his great work in laying the broad foundations of Canada as a naâ€" tion, his patriotism, his statesmanship, his foresight and his skill being largely responsible for whatever of liberty, of progress and of greatness Canadians toâ€"day may enjoy. T:hie speaker suggestâ€" ed that the two outstanding characâ€" teristics of Sir John A. Macdonald were his earnest and unselfish patriotâ€" ism, his talent in handling men and women, and his notable capacity for genuine friendship. In his patriotic efâ€" forts and his penchant for friendship this great Canadian exemplified the basic qualities on which service clubs are founded.
