THE DAVIS LANDS.

Much speculation attended the visit
here Tuesday of-President Cole Of the
Oliver Iron Mining Co, and Range
Supt, Davis Of the same concern. They
came here in two special cars in one
of which was Theodore NJ. Davis.
Mr. Davis is the owner Of large
tract of land in this vicenity, being
large holder in the Keweenaw
Association and in partnership with
J. NJ. Longgear in much additional
land holdings. The only place visited
in Crystal Falls was the Great Western
mine and this viist Is accounted for
from the fact that Mr. Davis is the
owner Of u parcel Of land adjoining
the Great Western on the east and
upon which the existence Of body of
ore is recognized. and it is further
agreed that the deposit is larger one
tnan has ever been developed in Crystal
Falls. This land has been under
option 20 the Oliver Mining Co. for
several years and IL was undoubtedly i'm

The HOLSTER

Rumor has L that the Oliver Mining
company has taken the Hollister again
and that exploratory work will be-
started thereon in a short time While
it is impossible TO yet the rumor
authenticated, our information comes
from sources that are usually correct
and it is more than likely that the pro-
perty will be again opened.
The last time that the Oliver people
had this property they placed
diamond drill thereon and cut vein
OF ore about 40 feet wide. II "A
diamond drill can be relied upon 70
tell the truth. The drill hole showed
that the company that undertakes 10

for a heavy water charge as the
ground was thoroughly saturated with
water and vugs were struck mere and

WORSLEY GOES BACK.
But Fast Washburn Quarterback
Must EscheW Football.

At meeting of the Washburn faculty
held Wednesday afternoon, Quarterback
Worsley of the Washburn football team
who was suspended for playing in the
Lindsborg game, was reinstated. Wors-
ley was notified 10 come to Topeka from
MS home at Maple Hill,and arrived here
Wednesday. He will resume work in
school at once and will graduate next
June with his class.
One of the conditions of Worsley's re-
turn is that he shall participate in no
inter collegiate football games. The
faculty holds that by playing profess
sional baseball for salary last sum-
mer Worsley disqualified himself as an
amateur athlete. Worsley denies that he
received a salary. However, he won't
play football.
Worsley can participate in any foot
ball games which are not played under
the presidents agreement. In case Den
yer had come here. he would have been
eligible for that game. He will have to
keep out of the Ottawa and K u games
however, which are the important
games of the season for Washburn.

FIND TELL TALE CHAIN
Police on Another Scent in
Waverly Murder Case.

Cambridge. Mass, Nov 13.-The po-
lice are investigating the past life and
movements of George L. o. Perry, the
young negro who upon the release of
Alan G. Mason, was charged with the
murder of Miss Clara A Morton at
Waverly.
The Somerville police found Perry's
sweetheart, and after persuasion got
her to exhibit whatever jewelry she had
received from Perry, Among the trink-
cts was a gold chain which was i'm
mediately recognized as having belong
ed to Miss McPhee. Private marks on
the chain proved the Identification and
the jeweler who sold it to Miss McPhee
later described his own marks upon it
The chain had been given by Perry S
sweetheart to her sister. The officers
next secured letters written by Perry to
his sweetheart and one to her sister,
and in the latter lnissive there is refer
ence to a chain and the injunction not
to say word about it. When Miss Nc
Phee was in the hospital during a lucid
moment she asked, Where is my
chain?" At the time there was an
abrasion on her neck caused by the
forcible tightening of a chain worn
there. After her death search was made
for the chain, but as it was not pawned
in this vicinity no clew to the murder
was secured in this way. The police
refuse to give the names of the girls
All of Perry's clothes were taken
from him because ar officer detected a
blood stain on a shirt sleeve. Perry
admitted the spot of blood, saying that
he had a bleeding tooth. All the negro's s
clothing al his home was seized. Some
of this, especially a coat has stains
which look like blood.
New York, Nov. ia negro about 20
years of ge giving the name Of Thomas
Jenkins was arrested here last night
after snatching a pocketbook from a
woman in the street.
The police says that he tales with the
description of a negro said to have been
seen in the vicinity of the place where
Miss McPhee and Miss Morton were
murdered.
