According to the new provisions of the Coroner‘s Act, the chief coroner of a district is delegated to supervise all inquests in his territory. Mr. Tucker, who is chief coroner for this district, hopes to stanâ€" dardize all inquests in his territory so that they may be as effective as posâ€" sible. The chief coroner intends to hoid inquests from time to time in the terriâ€" tory covered.

The zathering had a delightful evening, the programme being one of unusual interâ€" est, but it is likely that all woula have enjoyved themselves, even without the excellent programme, just to meet and greet each other as old friends. In calling the meeting it was decided that anyone who had been twenty years or more in the Porcupine camp or who had been here twenty or more years ago had again returned after an absence would be eligible to be considered an oldâ€"timer of the Porcupine. The gatherâ€" ing was remarkable for the fact that all present were young men, though some had gray hair and had seen many years, but retained the enthusiasm and zest of life that is classed as typical of vouth. There were two or three present who seemed to be young men in years as well as in appearance, but enquiry proved the fact that these were reâ€" sidents of the camp for several years more than the required twenty years, hnavineg been born here. George Banâ€" proved the fact that these were reâ€" sidents of the camp for several years more than the required twenty years, having been born here. George Banâ€" nerman, one of the first in the Porcuâ€" pine and mainly responsible for the rush that led to the establishment of the camp, was among those present. Harry A.

McGrath, Chas. Cummings, Jack Mcâ€" Lellan, and Morris Daher, The purpose was to get the oldâ€"timers together, to form an oldâ€"timers association with the idea of maintaining the connection permanently between the pioneers of the camp, and the turning over to the cfficers of the association of all ars rangements in reference to the oldâ€" timers‘ day at the silver jubilee of Timâ€" mins celebration this summer.
