Against Deviation of Road Much indignation and a good deal of determination to fight the deviation proposed for the new highway is being felt by town. The straightening of the present highway as proposed from north of town through the swamp to the foot of the Foley O‘Brien Hill would leave south Porcupine entirely off the highâ€" way and cost considerably more ithan pu‘tting the road through town in first class condition. Business men, too, fear devaluation of property and are roused to action over the whole affair. A peâ€" titizn has been circulated among the business men and houseâ€"owners and cver 350 signatures against the scheme have been given. Feeling ran high on Monday night but the delegation to council protesting the government scheme was an orderly one of twentyâ€"four prominent business men headed by Sol Sky who acted as spokesman. He put the position of the business men before the council askâ€" ing for action and protest and calling on council to uphold the interests Oof South Porcupine which, as council, they were pledged to do. The: deiega.tion were heard and asâ€" sured (see council meeting) that action would be immediately taken. One good thing arising from this strong feeling will be the reâ€"formation of a Board of Trade for South Porcuâ€" pine, active at one time but dormant of late. We are assured that the next step taken will be that of banding toâ€" gether a body of men who have Ssouth Porcupine‘s interests at heart and who will have authority as a body of seeing that <the business of South Porcupine is unhampered and allowed to grow without having such setbacks as this proposed road deviaion would unâ€" doubtedly prove.

The case attracting most of the at~â€" tention of the morning concerned the four younz men who appeared to anâ€" swer to a charge of cbstructing the pzlice in the performance of their duty. Chief MciInnis gave evidence that he was called to the Gold Range Hotel teverage rcom to see to these young men who were making trouble.

Odd Insect Proves to be "Honey Hawk" In The Advance of August 5th, refâ€" erence was made to an odd insect found in the garden of Mrs. Jos. Harding. The peculiarity of the insect was that it appeared of the moth species but was very much larger than the ordinâ€" ary type of moth, being almost the size of a humming bird. Mrs. W. I. Curtis told The Advance of seeing a similar specimen in the south this year, but did not know what the insect was callâ€" ed. This week Alfred Edwards, formâ€" erly of Toronto, where he conducted a floral business, kindly gave The Adâ€" vance a full description of the insect and its methods, Mr, Edwards says it is not rare in the South, though he does not think there are many in the North. While of the moth species, it is highly coloured and structured like a humâ€" ming bird. It has a particularly long feeler, or sucker, attached to its head, and this is curled up so as to be scarceâ€" ly noticeable when not in use. Its long feeler keeps it so far away from the flower that it has to have the same wing power as a humming bird to hold it steady in the air. Mr. Edwards says that while the insect brought to The Advance office is a large one it is not the largest Honey Hawk he has seen. Mr. Edwards has made a study of inâ€" sects and has a collection of over a hundred different kinds. He has eviâ€" dently studied them to much purpose and can give all sorts of interesting and helpful information about them. He very kindly says that he will be glad to give anyone information about unusual insects they may find. Interesting Details Given of Insect by Alfred Edwards f Honey Hawk or Honey Moth, Mr. Edwards says is usually found around mossy places. It deposits its eggs on flowers. It has no stinger, The speciâ€" men of the moth caught here was a female, he said. North Bay Nugget:â€"Prairie Gweers kept sheets and pillows in the ice box during a heat wave.
