Ed. Register-Owing to the fact that
/ have been very busily engaged at
work for the past two weeks, l have
had but little opportunity for gather
ing news items for the REGISTER.
The weather during the past week
has been very favorable for farm work;
the fact is. it is very seldom we have
such weather at this season of the
year. Dat sowing is now a thing of
the past, while many farmers are done
planting corn.
We feel pretty safe in saying that
there will be an abundant yied of all
kinds of fruits; that is, such as char
acterize this section of country.
Never before has the transition from
winter to spring been so marked as the
past week has been; ten days ago the
woods were as bare as they usually
are in January, while to-day they
present a panorama of lovely green
foliage, seldom equaled at this season
of the year.
The p%rotracted series of meetings,
conducted by Rev. Mr.. Williams of
Kentucky, are now in progress in our
town, and will probably continue for
at least ten days yet. Though Bro.
w. is a speaker of very marked abili-
ty. it appears hat the interest as yet
has not been very great, presumably
from the fact hat last week was a
very busy time with most people, par
t~icularly farmers. =
1t appears that trade with our mer-
chants is fairly good, and as they are

HALL STAR OF THE WEST LODGE,
No. 1873, A. F. & A. Nj.

ANOs AcC "a ~ - AVA
IRoNToN. Mo-, April 27, 1901.
To the ". n, Wdrdens and Brethren:
The task allotted your committee-to
draft a fitting expression of the sense
of this Lodge in reference to the death
of our beloved and reverend brother,
Bible Shepherds not n easy to
fulfill, nor to be ~perfunctorlly dis
missed with the ordinary expressions
of regret and coincidence. For Bro.
Shepherd was indeed a father in the
Israel of local Masonry. We who pen
this memorial were neophytes TO him.
and there remains in our membership
not one whose admission into the
sacred mysteries of u order he did
not precede. For nearly forty years,
ere he followed the remaining men,
bers of his family to the distant West,
he had been our monitor and guide.
The weight of years and the gather
ing shadows of life's evening did not
abate his interest in Masonry nor call
him from labor in its cause. Rest
he knew only with the final sum-
mons which will not be denied. In
manner how blessed that summons
came to himi Heralded by neither
pain nor anguish, the pale messenger
lovingly laid hands on the portal OF
the mortal tenement, the spirit came
forth and ~heavenward scared its way
We have no selfish, vain regret for
him who has been called to the felici-
ties of. the Lodge Divinity doth rule;
but the memory of his virtues and his
fraternal relationship will long remain
a pensive pleasure to those who knew
him In life.
To his s%orrowing relatives-for Ma
ture will not be refused her need OF
tears to love bereft-the members OF
Star of the West Lodge extend their
earnest sympathy, together with this
inadequate tribute to departed worth.
ResolUed, That a copy hereof be
spread upon the minutes; that a copy
under seal be transmitted to the only
surviving daughter Of the deceased:
and that the local papers be re,
quested to publish this testimonial.

TOOK Il COLD BATH.

While skating on the flimsy ice
on the south side of Silver lake on
Tuesday afternoon-Seibert Einum
and Elmer Vilmur-broke through
the ice and but for the timely assist
ance of Alderman Burchell and Ole
Sockness, who were employed upon
the city hall improvements and
heard the call for help, would GER
tainly have perished, being COM
pletely exhausted when saved from
the grip of death.
To Messrs. Burchell and Sockness,
both of whom got drenched in their
exciting experience, is due great
credit for their act in rescuing the
boys, their own lives being ehdan-
gered thereby.
During the past ten days several
boys have broken into the lake but
none had so close call as did the
two boys on Tuesday, and it would
seem their experience should tend
toward lessening the spirit of temer-
ity or fool-hardiness exhibited bv
so many of the youths of our city.

PRAISE FOR TOWERlTES

Gov. Van SAINT while in Duluth on
his way home from Tower, where
he had been to the dedication and
unveiling of the Mckinley monu-
ment, in an interview with Zenith
City reporter eulogized the citizens
of our enterprising northern neigh
Dor thus;
"The unwilling and dedication of
the first Mckinley memorial at Tow
er on Sunday, was a memorable oc-
casion. There was an immense
crowd and those who who had the
plan of the exercises in hand did
their work thoroughly. 1t was a
far more impressive and interesting
event than many who were not there
may imagine. The citizens of the
iron ranges are hospitable people
and I, in common with many other
Minnesota people, am proud of the
achievement of Tower and Soudan
in being first to erect a monument
to the late president"

4 NEW SHIPPER NEXT YEAR

supt, Garlick, of the Pitt Iron
Mining company, informs The En-
terpr.ise that the property of that
company comprising the north half
of section "A, 5s-17, adjoining the
Elba, will enter the list of new range
shippers during the season of 1902
This property is being developed
at present from the 100 #. level, and
about 80 men are at present employ
ed in rooming out and opening the
mine for extensive operation. A
fine equipment of machinery is be-
ing installed at the property, engine
houses and other necessary build
ings are in course of construction,
a shaft house has been raised this
week, and another thirty days will
find the mine properly equipped for
active mining.
The property is on Robinson &
Finn lands, the company's option
providing for 25 cent royalty for
the first three years and 80 cent
royalty thereafter during the life of
the lease.

bard Ore: Find.
C.. H. Nichols and Associates
Make a Valuable Find in
Section 36, 59-17
STEEL ORE ASSAYNG 60.7

Perhaps the most important ore
discovery IN Northern Minnesota
since the opening Of the Mesaba in
'92 has been proven within the week,
in new find made by C. II. Nichols
and associates in section 36, 59-17,
about four and one half miles north
east of the city.
The find is hard ore, encounter
ed in the first test-pit on the prop.
erty, which is helo under a state,
lease, at depth of 6 feet, the first
assay showing better than 40 per
cent in metallic iron. Analysis of
the ore encountered at a depth of IL
feet gave the very satisfactory re-
suit of co., per cent in metallic iron
and specimens from the property
on Tuesday, secured at depth of
IL feet, show an evident betterment.
Associated with Mr.. Nichols in
the new find are Supt. Parmelee, of
the Franklin and Union group, and
Messrs. John r. Waller and H. C.
Nichols, of Minneapolis, and they
propose developing the find to it's
utmost.
Alongside the find on 36 is anoth-
er on section 35, where S. F. Snive-
ley, of Duluth, holds an option. On
this property ore of similar nature
was encounted at depth of IL feet,
the pit now showing II feet of ore
and still bottomed in ore at depth
of % feet. It is the apparent inten-
ton to push development work at
this property also, several dump
cars and load of steel having re-
Gently been taken to the mine.
This discovery disproves several
of the geological and mining theo-
ries which have in past received an
amount OF consideration from ex.
plorers and mining men, but the in
terested parties and others holding
lands and options in the. new dis;
trict are satisfied with facts without
regard to theories, aud will continue
the exploration of the district with
unabated vigor.
Among others interested in the
new section are Messrs. H. o. Bull
C. H. Blossom, George Paine and
Will Foley, of Burt, Iowa, c. Y. God
den, of Burt, Iowa, J. H. Savage, o1
Humboldt, Iowa, and B. F. Smith
and A. H. Afford, of this city, the
first and last named parties being
interested in state lease holdings ir
section SO. G. G. Butler, of Franklin
is also associated with Mr.. Nichols
in the find above noted.

In the second half the ball was
kicked off to King, who fumbled:
Grotheim fell on ball on 80 yard
line. By hard runs the ball was adj
vanced to 25 yard line in Two Har-
bors territory. Deering backed left
tackle for two successive gains of Z
yards each. Erickson made II yds.

Grotheim secured ball on kick off
and double passed to Johnson who
carried ball past center. Smith

STRUCK OkE.

The crew engaged in excavating
on the right of way of the Duluth,
Virginia. & Rainy River railroad
struck ore in section 81, 59-17, about
one and one-half miles north of the
city.
The ore is soft hematite, show
ing up for some little distance in
the cut. The extent of the find and
it's bearing upon the adjacent ter
ritory is thus far entirely problem
atical, but it will doubtless stimu-
late exploratory work to the north.

NOT IN 1T.

While the Two Harbors aggrega-
ton of foot ball artists may not
have had the truth bucked out of
them on the Virginia gridiron on
Saturday last they certainly had all
idea of their ability to play the
game knocked out. The game was
called at las, large number wit
Messing the game and cheering Vir-
ginia on each successive victory.
Capt. Donnelly won the toss-up
and chose the kickoff. Virginia
kicked to Two Harbors' 10 yard line
The ball was fumbled and rolled
over the line. The full-back punted
out but the ball struck a player and
fell on the 8 yard line. where Two
Harbors secured it, but on the first
down lost ball to Virginia on fum-
BILE. A plunge into left tackle by
Deering secured 5 yards for Virgin
Ia; another plunge into left tackle
followed by line buck on the right
side with guards back netted the
home team touch down, Erickson
carrying the ball. Owing to the
ball being wet and slippery Don
nelly failed in the ATTEMPT to kick
goal.
Two Harbors kicked off to King,
who double passed to Deering and
the ball was advanced Is yards to
Virginia's 45 yard line. Deering
advanced ball 8 yards around right
end, johnson followed with 6 more
around the right, when Virginia
lost ball on attempted double pass.
Two Harbors crashed into center
without gain. A low punt was
captured by Smith, and advanced
30 yards with pretty sprint and a
dodge. Grotheim advanced ball 10
yards around the right and Don
nelly netted 3 yards more on a line
plunge. Deering sailed around the
right and after. throwing off tack
lers started for the goal but slipped
on the icy field and was downed on

che Ore Cratic
Is Decided by the Railroad and
Warehouse Commission
on Monday.
TO BE OF INTERSTATE NATURE.

TO BE OF INTERSTATE NATURE.
On Monday all three members of
the railroad and warehouse COM
mission joined in an order in the
ore rate case of the state against the
Duluth & Iron Range, admitting
interstate nature of the ore business
and dismissing the action.
A majority decision, from Com
missioners Staples and Miller, re-
quires that both the Duluth & Iron
Range and Duluth, Missabe & Nor
thern file tariffs before December 3,
showing rates between shipping
points and Lake Superior docks, for
the benefit of possible shipments
within the state, it having been
shown up to the present, time all
shipments over the Duluth & Iron
Range had been to points outside
of the state.
Chairman Mills dissents strongly
from this position, stating that
when it is shown that such ship
ments exist inside the state, and
subject to state jurisdiction, it will
he time to require tariffs.
The decision of the commission
was reached after careful study OF
opinions from Attorney General w
B. Douglas, Senator Moses E.
Clapp, special counsel for the com.
mission, Clapp and Mccartney, and
and General w. H. Childs, former
attorney general, as we'll as a sup.
Elementary opinion from Assistant
Attorney General Donahower
These uniformly held that the com.
mission is without power to super
wise rates upon ore taken from the
mines for shipment down the lakes
through the ore docks.
The opinions are similar, each
quoting extensively from federal
decisions, laying down principle
that a state is without power to fix
and regulate rates for the >transpof
tation of any commodity upon con
signment for continuous passage
over an instrumentality entirely
within the state, to final destina.
tion outside it's boundaries.
Attorney General Douglas lays
. down the proposition in addition
; that ore consigned to the ore docks
; as final destination, or to points
within the state, is subject to all the
laws of the state.
This final decision terminates the
case, which was first instigated up
on complaint of John G. Brown, O.
Duluth, the complaint being latel
withdrawn, and the case continued
by the former commission upon its
own motion.

Fishermen Drowned.

Charleston, S. c., June Fifteen fish
ermen are supposed to have been drowned
in a wild squan yesterday while the Mos
quito fleet of fishing boats was anchored
off the fishing patches" The eight boats
fishing at the time were scattered to the
four winds, but all save three were oc-
counted for tonight. The missing boats
were the Anna Julia, the Messenger Boy
and the Knife. There were 10 men in the
three boats.
When the supposed disaster was report
ed the revenue cutter Forward went to
sea and skirted for 80 miles around the
lightship, but came back with the story
that not a sign of a boat could be seen
Captain Watson of the Messenger Boy
is the only white skipper supposed to have
persisted.
