The Night school.

The promoters of the night school
have met with fair success in the or
ganiZation Of this important branch
OF education. The proposition is to
have four months course and it is
expected that, about forty will consti-
tute the school, The rate as figured
by the committee win amount to so
cents per week, or 81 per month.
This figure is supposed to meet all
expenses. The school will open about
the first Monday in January.
An effort will be made next summer
to bring a night school into the regu-
lar school year and bring it under the
management of the school board. A
large number of taxpayers have al
ready voiced their sentiments in favor
of this move. At small additional
cost an evening school can be conduct
ed and there is no doubt as to the
beneficiary results to be attained by
this Institution.

Downs Them An.

The amount of ore received at the
Two Harbors docks for the season of
1900 was 4,014,373 gross tons, the
greatest in its history, and is the
largest amount ever handled by any
docks in any year. The increase over
last season is AZ, 1856 gross tons. There
is yet one boat to load, the schooner
Magua, which will not be through
discharging coal until Sunday. The
docks will then be clear and there
will be about 100 loaded cars left in
yard.
While the amount handled falls be-
low the seasons estimate, it is very
satisfactory. As usual this large
amount has been transferred from
car to vessel without hitch or acct
dent, Indicating the excellent system
employed by Agent Holden and his
associates.-Two Harbors News.

Dividend of 100 Per Cent

During the year 1899 the Duluth &
Iron Range carried $4,000 tons of
iron ore from the iron mines to the
docks at Two Harbors In addition
it did Il large lumber and logging
business Less than per cent of its
entire traffic was outside of these
commodities. The road has been in
operation sixteen years. having made
a very small beginning. During all
these years it has paid no dividend
until the annual meeting last June.
when it declared a dividend of 100 per
cent. or IS 900, 600. The road is capt. :
allied for s3,0O0.000, so that the divi-
dends thus declared equals only about
60 per cent per annum.

The Fayal the Champion.

The Fayal mine at Eyeleth. will
hold the record for the Lake Superior
region in point Of shipments this
year. The mine on Nov 20. had ship
ped 1904 .051 gross tons. which is the
greatest amount of ore ever shipped
from single iron mine in the world,
in one season, up to the present time.
The shipments for December are to
be added to these figures, which will
increase them considerably The
Fayal will undoubtedly ship more ore
next year than in 1900. 1t was plan
ned to ship at least 800, 600 tons this
year. but owing to heavy rains which
flooded the open pit. and some of the
shafts on two occasions. much yalua-

cannot be achieved

that little new ore has been found
apart from the Mesabi, in the past
two years, find some modification ON
the argument of furnacemen that
$40 decline in pig iron calls for good
sized reduction in the price of ore.
1t seems foregone that the vessel rate
will be reduced by something like 40
per cent. One view of the probabili-
ties is that the so cents that comes
from the lake freight will be matched
by so cents from the ore miner, put
ting the base price at $50, as against
$3.50 this year.-Iron TRADE Review.

Disappointinp Weather

The mild weather is just a little
disappointing to almost everyone with
the possible exception of those to
whom the most crying necessity is
the reduction of the fuel bill. Mer-
chants do not like it for business in

are not particularly happy over it for
they want snow and cold weather

VIII Ruiid More Road

The Duluth, Missabe & Northern
Railway company will build twelve
miles of railroad during the coming
winter, which will connect the old
town of Mesaba with Biwabik. The
building of the trackage will COM
mence at the switching station known
as Jones, about two or three. miles
west of Biwabik and will cross the
Duluth & Iron Range road near the
gravel pit at Summit. and so on to
Little Mesaba. The object of this ex-
tention is to give the old Mesaba
mine. which has been reopened aud
which will be producer next season.
shipping facilities for the mine.
Bids for the building OF the new sec
tion of road are being received now
and will be opened within few days.
The building Of this road again
brings out the old familiar railroad
story of an extension to Ely i'm the
near future. From Mesaba to Ely
would only require short piece of
road and the same would pass through
a fairly rich country. It is hoped
here that the story win prove nc
hoax.
