The issue before the court was as to
the powers of the city and the school
board, and not rs to the exercise of those
powers.
The law was well settled in the Put
nam case as to the powers and limita-
lions of the school board. When the
board reaff1rmed it's action in fixing the
budget allowance for teachers at the
maximum amount, that fixed the plain
tiffs salary. The city must satisfy the
court that the act of 1891 contemplates
that the school year should be from Sep

gold watch between Miss Mile Pottgie-

won by a safe margin, but as no one knew
how the voting was progressing until the
votes were counted. it excited no end of
interest as each of the contestants had
very large circle of friends that sup
ported her cause. The other prizes were
won as follows: Miss Kate Quirk, BIZ

Rose Farley, silver set; Miss Connolly,

AS the evening wore away the voting
became more lively and the excitement
more intense. 1t was after midnight
when the votes had been all counted and
the final result announced.
The large hall during the early hours
of the evening was crowded, and a large
number remained to hear the result of
the contests. When Miss Pottgieser' s
majority of $500 votes was announced it
met with unstinted approval of the crowd,
and the cheering was Joined by the par
tisans of Miss Ryan, as it was a contest

Present Bright Prospects.
Under Mr. Farnham's superlnten-
dency some very successful mining
was done and a large quantity OF ore
had been gotten out when, a year ago,
Mr.. O $. Garrettson OF Pittsburg. Pa,
came here, bought the ore and made
arrangements for placing smelling
furnace he had invented here tor ex-
detrimental work lie has worked up
all the ore mined and many thousand
tons of the low grade ore thrown upon
the dumps because of its being value
less for smelling under the old meth
DDS. In his furnace he takes the ore as
il comes from the mines and converts
it into copper, thus saving the expense
of roasting and the two months time
the ore has TO remain upon the ore beds
under the old methods. This process
will be used by the new company, OF
which Mr.. GarretsOn is a member.
Experts agree in the statement that
under better management than was
had in former years, and using the i'm
proved methods of today a profit far
exceeding that of the palmy days of
the Ely management can be obtained.
The property to which the new com
pany succeeds consists of the large
tract of land nearly nine miles in cir
conference, on which mining has been
extended to a depth OF more than $500
feet.a smelling plant 500 feet in length,
large concentration mill, store, about
$50 dwellings for men and officers and
a large and valuable lot of machinery.

that cost nearly If not quite 500, 600.
The new company contemplate run
ming in an adt from the Vershire brook
side Of the hill to the lower level Of the
old workings for the purpose OF drain
/ ing the mines. Mining experts say =
I larger body of ore than the one that
has been worked so many years will be
struck in running this adit The out

tlemen who have purchased the mines
have a use for all the copper they can
produce here and more. The pay roll at
| the mines will be large and large part
of the money paid the workmen will go
into circulation probably. This will
make the times more prosperous for The
farmers and merchants OF Vershire and
vicinity.
These mines share with the other
mines of the county the advantage OF
being near the great copper markets
of the country.

operations on greater scale than was
ever known before will soon be going
on in these mines.
The mines were first operated by a
farmers company early in the present
century and although only rude and
primitive methods were pursued the
company made profit from working
upon the outcroppings. Early in the
thirties Messrs Tyson 4 Binney ran a
horizontal cross-cut adit into Dwight
hill. where the mines are located, near
" to the main body of ore and then
abandoned the mine. In 1854 Capt.
Thomas Pollard started in the Tyson
4 Binney adit and had gone but 4 feet
when he struck the vein and found a
continuous body OF ore. The vein was
from : to l6 feet wide. In 1854. 1874
tons OF ore were mined and sold. The
output was increased year by year I'M

ELIZABETH MINES.
Largest Copper Pro Iucers East OF Mis-
sIssippl River.

The leading and most promising
copper mines of the East today are
those owned by the Elizabeth Mining
Co. of South STAFFORD, VT, and Balti-
more, Md. found just outside the
pleasant village of South STAFFORD in
a high ridge or camel-backed hill that
reaches to and is south of the STAFFORD
branch Of the Ompompanoosuc river.
In these mines there has been develop
ed for a long distance the largest cop
per vein known and there ia now
blocked out in this vein the largest
body OF copper ore ever seen. WITHIN
the present year drift has been run
i'm fhe vein which here is 80 TO 81 feet
wide. distance of 200 feet. Above
this DRIFT there is body of fine copper
ore that il 400 feet deep and has an
average width OF 40 feet. There is
nearly hali-million tons OF ore in this
body
Beside running this DRIFT the com
panv has built new buildings in which
they have installed new and improved
machinery and today il has one of the
best up-to-datc mining and smelling
plants in the East.
The compa"y's mining rights extend
in northerly direction nearly one
and half miles from the southern
boundary and there is every reason for
believing that the large vein of ore
nov developed for about 1000 feet to-
ward the north extends the whole
length of their property and that i
has depth of mile or more. The
facts here stated seem to be sufficient
to sustain the claim that these are the
most promising mines in the East but
there are other facts that still further
sustain this claim Instead of being
