Teachers Engaged.

The school board at is meeting
Friday night, engaged the teachers
for the coming school year. All the
teachers at present here with the spX-
ception OF Miss Fry of the Ely school
and Miss Stephens of the Winton
school who did not apply for re-en-
We're engaged for another
year. This leaves two vacancies
to be filed as the rooms now stand.
In all probability several changes
will be made in the schools before a
new term begins. More rooms must
be had rs the present ones are made
qUate and in consequence more
teachers must be had.
The personnel Of re-engaged teachers
is: Prof. Wilson as principal and the
Misses Palmer, Nessel, McDermott,
Fridley and Van Biarcom. The
teachers have all given satisfaction
and their re-engagement is very giati-
flying to the parents of the scholars
and the scholars themselves. This
term will close one of the most eff
cient years this school has ever en-
joyed, due principally to the efficiency
of the teachers.
It is to be regretted that Miss Fry
and Miss Stephens have decided to
leave Ely as during their stay they
have made many friends here.

Shipping in Earnest

The Chandler steam shovel was
moved Tuesday to No. 5 stockpile and
is working with vengeance. Con-
siderable ore was left on the No.
pile but the frost hindered to such an
extent that it was deemed eXpedient
to waste no more time if any ship
ments were to be made. On No.
pile the shovel will be able to load 200
cars each double shift. The mine is
now shipping daily about 5000 tons.
No. pile contains III, COO tons.

Does Not Indicate Record II, eaker.

With May more than half gone the
amount OF 1899 ore put upon Lake
Erie docks is far from indicating that
a season OF record-breaking produc-
ton is under way Vessels that went
into the grain trade for their early
trips rather than take ore at the fig
ures offered by ore shippers, have
found the experience an unprofitable
one in view of the strike OF unloaders
at Bufalo; and the tie-Up there has
made tonnage scarae. Later there
may be a release all at once of a large
amount Of tonnage, or which the ore
freight market will get its share. At
The moment the rates OF 20 cents
from the the head OF the lakes and 80
cents irom Escanaba represent the
market, but very little is doing, and

The cause of the onslaught was
nothing more than the Firms had
come TO town and loaded up with
drinks. On the way home their nat
ional characteristic mixed with the
drink caused them to become desper-
ate and they jumped onto the first
man they saw regardless Of who he
was.
This man Eli Heck is a bad one and
has been frequently mixed up with
cutting scrapes, His brother is lust
from the old country. The concensus
OF opinion here is that the right part
les are being held. and that the scheme
OF two brothers 70 lay the whole affair
onto Rlstamaa was concocted after
the first two were arrested and that
Hecks paid Ristamaa to clear out,
He is probably on the ROAD to the
Old country by this time. Ristamaa
was in the room when the two broth
ers were arrested, but at that time
they'did not make move to implicate
him.

AT THEIR OLD TACTICS.
of Those Finnish Pieasantries
takes Place Sunday Morning.


Eli Hecks ard his brother Andrew
Hecks were arrested by Chief of Police
Garrison Sunday on warrant sworn
out by Jos. Michele charging the
Hecks with using knife on-the said
Michele. To substantiate the claim
that the knife had been used, the
injured man disclosed to the court is
knife wounds on divers parts of the
body, more particularly the head,
ranging from inch in lenghth to two
inches and from skin deep to bone
deep.
Monday morning the men were
brought before Judge Van Blarcom
and both denied any part in the cult
ing. A hearing was ordered for
O'Clock in the afternoon of the
same day. At the hearing, both pris-
.oners maintained they knew OF the
affair but that one Matt Ristamaa
had done the cutting. Ristamaa
had conversation with the prisoners
early Monday morning at the Jail
door and had then flown. Witnesses
were examined and evidence of such
strong character was adduced that
Judge Van Blarcom bound the Hecks
over to the grand jury. Eli Hecks
secured bail in the sum of $3.50 and
was allowed to go. Andrew went to
Duluth and is now confined in the
county Jail.
Michele testified that on his way
home from the Pioneer location to the
Savoy, he had occasion to walk
through the railroad cut near the
Zenit b and that there Eli and Andrew
Hecks pounced upon him and cut him
one holding the victim while the
other did the knitting. He broke
away and ran to a house at the Zenith
from where he was taken to the hos
pital and his wounds dressed. DR..
Shipman says it is remarkable the
man was not killed. Eighteen distinct
knife wounds and not one touching a
vital spot. The victim swore he re-
cognized his assailants as the Hecks.
To further substantiate the fact that
the prisoners were out Sunday morn
ing, Peter Beck was sworn, who
says that at little after O'Clock he
woke up on hearing rock come crash
ing through his store window. He
jumped out of bed and followed two
men to Jos. Smokes place, He told
them of it and they denied the charge
saying they were now going home to

Parties who visit the islands on the

should be careful how they conduct
themselves. Complaints are frequent
ly made that trees are being broken
down, cut off and the beauty of the
islands otherwise marred. While
there are no objections by the owners
to occupancy of any Of these spots,
there is nevertheless a strong objec-
tion to the vaudalisms perpretrated.
This is private property and those de-
stroying the same are subject to ar

mann. of the general land Office which
is adverse to both claimants and the
property goes to the state. Charles
f. Kugler and Michael j. Newell were
the claimants. They each wanted a
piece of 120 acres in section Is. and 40
acres in section 8, 59-11. They claimed
to have been settlers on the lands at
the time of the opening of the town
for filing. Otherwise the lands in
section 16 would have gone to the
state as to the school section. The
commissioner holds that both were
after it for the timber that was on it,
and that neither of them intended to
settle on it. The interior department
has denied the states claim to section
16, and the question is now before the

SelIwood Talks.

Joseph Sellwood while in Ishpeming
two weeks ago gave the Iron Ore his
opinion as TO the ore market in gen.
eral, Among other things he said
that in i've years from now the Fed
efal Steel people would be purchasing
ore from the Carnegies. In support
OF this he referred to the purchase of
the fine mines which had been acquir-
ed by the Carnegies. He said the
Carnegie company had the very best
mines on the several ranges and the
Federal Steel company had permitted
some of the purchasable properties to
get away from them when they might
have been had at "a low price. One of
these was the Pioneer. This is looked
upon as one OF the finest properties in
the Lake Superior region. The ore
is Of excellent quality, and in size the
deposit far outranks the Chandler,
which has been one Of the biggest
producers. The Chandler. according
to Mr.. Sellwood. has seen its zenith
and will be on the down-hill side from
this time on. In three years it will
not be sending out anything like the
tonnage now contributed. The
Tower mines are hard ores, generally
| non-bessemer, and the Mesaba prop
critics will be drawn heavily upon in
order TO meet the requirements of the
company. Carnegie has been quietly
gathering in the big producers, and
has not stopped at few hundred
| thousand where he thought the prop
erty demanded it. He had an eve
to the future and was aware of the
big increase that was going to be
achieved by Americans.
This little speech of Mr.. Sellwood's
as to ''the Chandler having seen its
zenith" sounds familiar If we are
not badly mistaken. in 1893 Mr.. Sell
wood made this same little prediction.
This was Immediately after the 1892
shipments which were 651, 655 tons.
overshadowed only by the Chaplin aud
Norrie mines. Last year the Chandler
shipped rs, 9l9 tons, and again up
| hobs the zenith" statement.
From what source Mr.. Sellwood gets
his authority is hard to say. Since
he left the Chandler and incidentally
the mining business. the mine has
been entirely changed The work
| done has been new work of which he
knows little and is therefore not pre-
pared to make the sweeping assert
ions. While it must be admitted the
| Chandler has been d remarkable pro-
Queer and liable to the calamities
predicted. indications in and about
the mine indicate at least eight years
more of success and large shipments.
Should the mine decide to work No.
shaft to its full capacity. could in
three years put out yearly 1000, 600
tons easily. This information comes
from reliable sources. In looking
about, we have also ascertaiEed that
No. 5 shaft will be sunk another 100
feet next winter. While the Chandler
is getting deeper each year, it is also
getting wider and we doubt Mr.. Sell
wood s statements as to the three
years. A any rate. indications are
against this latter assertion.
