_"A halfâ€"mile of poor road near Raâ€" more," said The Advance ten years ago, "is spoiling all traffic on the Ferguson highway so far as this part of the North is concerned. Those who have been pulled through this Ramore strip of bad road naturally warn all others against it. This bad piece of road is likely to prevent the contemplated visit of the Kiwanis delegation from Souâ€" thern Ontario to Timmins. Such a visit has been planned now for about a year and looked forward to by both parties with the keenest interest and anticipation. The plan was to motor up here from Barrie on a plan similar to the North‘s motorcade to the South last year. That bad strip of road near Raâ€" more has made the plan most doubtâ€" ful."

On nâ€" | arrival in Manitoba he found it would be a couple of weeks or so before the th | position at the mine would be ready for ffâ€" | him and he decided to employ the time ge, by going on A prospecting trip with or ; two friends, Messrs. Avory and McCoy, he ‘from Cobalt. They were in the Northâ€" United States, where his relatives reâ€" side. A party of six young men who were prospecting for a imonth or more in the James Bay area east of Moose Factory, for some Timmins men, returned teon years ago to town. They reported a trying experience for one of their numâ€" ber. This man got separated from the others and was lost for four days. He suffered hunger and anxiety for thd®c four days but eventually made his way back to camp, just about the time 8 Royal Canadian Mounted Police was preparing a rescue party to seek him.

He was only zone about 15 minutes before they were searching for him as they expected him "ight back. He was a good bushman and for a time it was thought he would return all right himself. Men and airâ€" ships scoured the country since to find him but the latest word from the West leaves him still missing. His brother, Mr. Wm. Taylor, left several days ago for Sherrittâ€"Gordon to assist in the search for him." Mr. Taylor, it may be added, proved himself to be a good bushman and was able to maintain himself for some time before search parties reached him. In the league softball game ten years H. Garner walked Hackett, who had knocked ciut a triple in the time before at bat, filling the bases, and figuring to get D. Moore, there being Lwo But Dinty knocked the ball between centre and right field for a home run. A Brisson‘s etrror on a missed third strike allowed the A.S.D. to fill the bases. The score was 8â€"5 in favour of the A.S.D. "Preliminary figures compiled from the returns of the Ontario Dept. of Mines from month to month," said The Advance ten years ago, "show that for the first six months of 1928 the proâ€" duction of gold in the Porcupine camp totalled a value of $10,200,000. This is slightly lower than the total for the corresponding six months in 1927. The difference is largely due to reduction in the production at the Hollinger folâ€" lowing the accident at that mine in February of this year, with its conseâ€" quent interference with the attention given to production. For weeks at a time the majority of the heads of deâ€" parments were engaged most of their time in matters relating to the invesâ€" tigation, t,he sittings of the commmsxon and so on. A rush of considerable importance reâ€" sulted ten years azo from a discovery made by a woman prospector, Miss Kathleen Ricse, on the northwestern shore of Lake Weskusko on Rice Island, 25 miles from steel on the Hudson Bay Railway in Northern Manitoba. The find was of copper and the samples were said to be remarkably rich. Miss Rice was the first woman to record a find of importance in the Manitoba field. She had spent several years in Manitoba and was well known as a pioneer prospector and settler in the district four hundred miles north of Winnipeg." Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Lake returned ten years ago from a visit to the West to the anrclual meeting of the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association at Edâ€" monton, Alberta, and the holiday trips enjoyed by the members of the assoâ€" clation in the rightly worldâ€"famous beauty spot of the great Canadian West. Among the delightful iplaces visited none could equal Jasper Park, the Doâ€" minion‘s wonderful national park at Jasper, Alberta. Probably, there is no other similar spot in the world more impressive and more restful and reâ€" freshing in its natural beauty, its magâ€" nificent scenery and the extent and variety of its attractions. A party of some forty boys from the noted English public schools, such as Eton, Harrow, Winchester, etc., were ten years ago making a tour of Canada. "Mr. Studholme, who had the arrangeâ€" ments in charge for the tour, was in Timmins recently," said The Advance, "and the party will visit this town on the trip west. The visitors will reach here on August 15th, at about 8.30 p.m. and will remain here until the afterâ€" nocen of the following day." Ten years ago The Advance carried a long account telling of the troubles of the settlers in this Northland and also reproduced a letter which had been mailed by the settlers to the Board of Trade. In The Advance ten years ago: "Fire Chief Borland is famous for his good luck (which is usualy the good luck that comes from knowledge, skill and expcrience) but Tuesday was not apâ€" parently his lucky day. There were two early morning fires doing considerâ€" able damage despite all that skill, exâ€" perience and care could do. and in adâ€" dition the fire chief met with an acciâ€" dent on the way to one of them. The chief musually escapes despite that fact that he is always in the thick of the battle and appears to take all sorts of chances. On Tuesday morning when the motor truck was on its way to one of the fires the chief was putting on his coat as the truck was travelling along. A bad strip of roadway caused the back of the truck to go up in the air with some violence. The chief came down upon the hard bar, his chest hitting the bar with his weight behind it Although he did not know about Z2 YNIR EC _ 7 oFPICERS 40 BAREFOOTEDâ€" FULl UNIFORMS pos-(,\qg STKKPD «s ARE WORX , AutT REPLACE TRkousers 2 CENTAYVOS§ VAluUB AWEXBRLATT _1 #¢8,_KINC_FEA TURES SYNOTCATL _bos, SCOTT‘S SCRAP BOOK it at the time, and superintended the fighting of the fire as usual, he had the illâ€"luck to fracture a couple of ribs, as he learned afterwards.

Among the local items in The Adâ€" vance ten yrears ago were: "Bornâ€"in Timmins, on Saturday, July 14th, to Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Brewer, 107 Birch street south, a daughter."

Brownsmen, of New York, was a Timmins visitor last week in connection with some mining interest in the disâ€" trict." "Mrs. John Dexter and son, Clifâ€" ford, who were the guests of Mrs. Doxâ€" ter‘s ~daughter, Mrs. S. H.

"‘Butch‘ Macdonald, formerly a wellâ€" known Timmins resident, is back in town again, and expects to spend the greater part of the summer here." "Mr. A. F. Cook, who was on a holiday trip in the South, recuperating after an cperation for appendicitis performed about the middle of June, returned to Timmins on Sunday night, having fully recovered." ‘"Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Urâ€" quhart and baby daughter, Lois, reâ€" turned on Sunday night from a holiâ€" day trip in the South." The owner in this case did a fairly complete job of modernization by also installing a planned kitchen with modâ€" ern cabinet sink and matching cabinet and range units. As a result he found himself in possession of a house which from the point of view of appearance and convenience, compared favourably with any new house of similar archiâ€" tectural design. > NV Mrs. Lawlor, Elm street." Longmore and son, Allen, in the South." ‘"Mr. and ! _ Seijari told the coroner and provinâ€" cial police officers that on his Thursday visit to the Abitibi river homestead, he had found Ung in pain from a swollen !appendix, but as the victim had sufâ€" fered similar attacks at other times neither of them had been paxticularlv worried. Cochrane, July 20â€"A 20â€"mile mo-l tor trip to the Abitibt Canyon and a pull of several miles downstream in a rowboat was made Saturday by Chief | Coroner E. R. Tucker and Provincial | Constable T. Houldcroft to bring out the body of Jonas Ung, 52â€"yearâ€"old unâ€" employed Sudbury carpenter, who died, alone, in torture, from a ruptured apâ€"; pendix, in an isolated homestead cabin, accessible only by water. At the time Ung, a Finn, crawled into bed with his clothes on, to curl up in a ball in an effort to relieve the pain of his swollen appendix, his wife was four miles away, working as a cook in a lumber camp. As agonized death came to the helpâ€" less man, rescue might have bren made from the settlement of Gardinâ€" er, the home of his married daughter. But perched as it is, high on the banks of the Abitibi river, cut off from settlement by water, the cabin might as well have been from civilization. Last man to see Ung alive was John Seijari, who paddled down the Abitibi to the lonely homestead Thursday to inspect an outboard motor which the sickening man was to have repaired. Seijari left some gasoline with which to ‘try out the outboard, and did not return again to pick it up until Saturâ€" day, when he found Ung dead in bed. Inquest Not Necessary From the position of the body, fully dressed and curled up under the bed clothes, it was apparent, reported the coroner, that Ung had died in torture. Ung had returned to his homestead from Sudbury only two weeks ago.

Somebody is Trying to String Somebody in This a boarder, went into his guest‘s room to awaken him. Imagine his horror when he saw his boarder lying with white cord about his neck, the other end of the line trailing out of the window! Later the truth was discovered. The white string about the neck of the unâ€" conscious figure was the latest thing in "wakersâ€"uppers." According to a preâ€" vious arrangement with a workman at a nearby shop (one of those unforunate souls that have to go to work early in the morning) the one who sought to be awakened simply tied a long string about his neck. The idea was that the earlyâ€"riser would seize the string as he passed, and give it a few yanks. Not heavy enough yanks to hang the sleepâ€" er, but to bring him back to the munâ€" dane cares of earth. (From The Sussex, N.B., Record) One morning last week a local land=â€" lord, in other words, a man who kept This was a joke, we thought, when we heard, but when we went around and saw the long white string, we beâ€" lieved. Gosh! How we would have loved to have yanked that string. The trouble with the alarm string is that one morning it needed such an enormâ€" cus yank to waken the sleeper that the string broke, and the boarder came to breakfast nearly two hours late. Some of these days a nice long slipâ€" pery worm, a longâ€"legged spider and other creeping things are going to crawl up that stringâ€"in the deep, dark night, and thenâ€"â€"â€"! !
