After hearing all the evidence available the jury, of which Mr. I. E. Dunn was foreâ€" man, brought in a verdict that death was accidental. The late Ubald Lagrois came to his death from suffocation in one of the ore bins at the mine. He had apparently fallen into the bin and been covered by the crushed rock.

In The Advance ten years ago: "Reâ€" ports received here this week tell of a fiendish attempt to dyramite a house at Mountain Chutes, near Ek Lake, some days ago. Powder and poercussion caps were placed against the ibuilding occupied by Mr. Carl Bogard and his wife and child at Mountain Chutes where he conducts a general store. The caps exploded but fortunately the powder failed to go off. The building now cccupied by the Bogards appears to have had more or less of a charmed life, having escaped the 1922 fire, though everything nearby was burned. The building being deserted at the time seemed sure to fall prey to the flames, but after the fire had passed it was found to be unharmed. Now it has anâ€" other mirazculous eszape. The police are working on the case, but so far it is understocd no clues are ‘available." Ten years ago extensive robberies from fvreight cars on the T. N. O. took place. A large quantity of all kinds of goods was stolen, the missing goods toâ€" talling a value of between $1000 and $1500. The goods taken included all sorts of articles, beer. cigarettes, carâ€" fons of tobacco, staticnery, rubbers, bocts, mitts, gloves, mattresses, beds and springs, pillows, confectionery, fruit and numerous other articles. The series of robberies off freight cars here started on Hallowe‘en when 24 cases of beer were reported as missing. From then on the robberies continued. The lccal police took up the matter of the rcbberies as soon as they were reported. Pecple interested in fish and game {ind it necessary to go farther and farâ€" ther away from town each year when in quest of good sport. Yet ten years ago, Mi. Lacrsix, of the Windsor hotel, found a regular little fish and game paradise not more than twelve miles away from Timmins. Mr. Lacroix naturâ€" ally did not describe the exact location of his find. but he did say that it was comparatively easy of azscess and could be reached by canoe ard trail in less than three hours. In the South Porcupine news ten years ago: "The tang of frost in the air makes cng begin to wish for the flash and zivb of the skates and the atâ€" tending exhilaration. Then naturally our interest runs to hockey and if preâ€" sent plans work cut there is likely to to plenty of excitement in the arena here this winter. The game slated fo the cpening of the rink, we believe, is to be with the speed demons of the Londcn Battery. Those who know their rcputation know that real hockey will be seen. and those who saw the sudden death game in Toron:o are particularly arxious to see these two teams meet again.‘ The Lancashire Sczcial Club held a very pleasant sccial event ten years ago. there beirg a good crowd ¢f visiâ€" tors and all havinz a most enjoyable time. A number of novelty dances were put on, besides the usual foxtrots and walizes. Before supper an Old Country waltz was enjoyed by all. Mr. H. Unsâ€" worth delighted the gatherirg with a fine song which received Geserved enâ€" core. After the good things to eat Mrs. Holiis favoured the gathering with a very pleasing solo, and was heartily encored. Mrs. Hollis was a visitor at the club for the evening and her talentâ€" ed singing was spetially appreciated. Ten years ago a sad fatality took place at the Furness Mines. Mr. Edward Liily Popovich, the noted Ukrainian soprano soloist, was at the Timmins Ukrainian Labsur Temple ten years ago, and at the Maple Leaf theatre as well, and on both cccasions she comâ€" pletely captured her audience with her wonderful voice and her charming perâ€" sonality. On Tuesday, November 8. 1927. the Ukrainian hall was crowded for the ocz:asion, with a large Bercenâ€" tage of Englishâ€"speaking people preâ€" sent, and the event was most thcroughâ€" ly enjoyed and appreciated. Music overs found the evening a delightful cne indeed. Mr. Geo. Hale added to the success of the programme by his good work as accompanist.
