NOTES.:
Having Trouble In Idaho.

Archie Pnllip formerly deputy
game warden OF DuluLn. who LETT LnIS
city for Idaho last spring, Is i'll The
thick OF The trouble over govern
menJ claims in The vicinity of
oanLe, where TWO men were killed re-
Gently and another wounded says the
Duluth News Tribune. Mr.. Philip
was residing on d claim twenty-five
miles from Sante, with his family,
and according to Peter McAlpine OF
This city, who has returned from there
lie has given out that he would stick
70 his land, come what would. But
letter Was received in Duluth yester-
day announcing that Mr.. Philip has
taken his family to Sante, and that
he was going to return to his property.
He has, it is said, valuable quarter
section and like many other settlers
in that region, his right is contested
by Others who charge claim jumping.
Mr.. Phillips declares that he proposes
to stand on his rights. He intended
to ask the governor Of Idaho for
troops to protect the settlers until
such time as the differences of the
claimants In that region can be SET
tied, or until there is no longer danger
to human life. Mr.. Philip is known
in Duluth to be man of much de-
termination and in view of the fact
that two of his neighbOrs have been
killed from ambush, and another
wounded, his Duluth friends fear
that he may be foully dealt with be-
fore the trouble blows over.

Experiments for the purpose of re-
ducing the phosphorus In the molten
iron while still in the ladle, thus max
ing the iron ready for the Bessemer
converter to be made into steel, have
been brought to an almost successful
conclusion. The new process is the
idea of Homer Williams, general SUI
perintendent of the Duquesne Steel
works and an old Carnegie steel man.
Mr.. Williams has been experimenting
the past three years, but never
reached point where success was GER
tain until about three weeks ago,
when test was taken before and
after treating the molten iron. The
reduction in phosphorus was greater
than the difference between the per
cent necessary for Bessemer and that
for open hearth, and the desired end
was reached. W. E. Corey, president
of the steel corporation, was present
at several of the experiments and
congratulated Mr.. Williams on solv-
ing a problem which has baffied steel
makers since steel was first made.
The process is simple and costs no
more than the ordinary way Of hand
ling steel. Instead of lining the ladle
as at present, different materials are
used which by a chemical reaction
neutralize the phosphorus, which is
absorbed by the lining of the ladle.
Prominent men who have been keep
ing in close touch with the experiment
say that it will place available mill
ions of tons of low grade iron, which
is practically of little CT no use for
Bessemer steel made by the present
process, into the market. 1t will
make it possible to make low phos-
phorus steel from a high PHOSPHORUS
iron ore without the expensive process
of converting it through the open
hearth basic process. The open
hearth process is credited with being
almost one-third more expensive than
the Bessemer process, but it cannot
be avoided, as it is at present the only
known way, outside of the Anticipated
acid furnace.

Capt. Trezona Entertains.

On Thursday evening of last week,
Capt. Chas. TreZOna entertained
about fifty of his gentlemen friends

Mr.. TreZona was ably assisted by Mrs.
Trezona, Edith and Will, Mrs. Prisk,
Mrs. Wunder and Mrs. Grabowsky.
The occasion was the forty-first ami
versary of the Captains birth. In a
neat and well-worded speech Mr..
Grabowsky Informed the guests of
the fact and called upon all to drink
to the Captains health, wishing him
many happy and prosperous years.
1t is needless to say that allresponded
with will.
The evening was opened up with
some we'll rendered piano selections
on the part of Mrs. Wunder, and this
was followed by cards. After a most
pleasant series of games, prizes were
awarded to Mr.. Louis Eisenach and

DEEPEST Hole.

What will, it is believed, be the
deepest diamond drill hole ever put
down anywhere in the world is now
being bored on the Rand at a point
near Johannesburg, by crew Of four
Lake Superior men in the employ of
South African drilling company.
Two of the men are residents of ISh-
peming, and the other two of Ne
gaunee. The hole is to attain depth
of 5000 feet, according to the terms
of the contract, and letters just re-
ceived state that at that time half Of
the task had been accomplished. The
work is being done with the largest
Sullivan drill ever made. They have
"Kaffir boys" and Cinnamon to do the
rough work, and are we'll pleased with
the climate and their surroundings

Look Out For Him.

A new fake game has been found
and is being worked with consider
able success in some northern towns.
A man walks into store and buys 50
to $40 worth OF goods, tell the store
keeper to keep the goods until he calls
for them at a certain date and gives
a $50 to $75 check on bank in pay
ment. The check is taken to the
bank and returned marked N, q.
At the date given the man comes for
his goods, and is informed that the
check is not honored. He cusses the
bank but pays for his goods, starts for
the door, then walks back and asks
for his check. He gets it with the
merchants endorsement. In few
days the merchant is notified Dy the
bank of check cashed bearing his
endorsement. The merchant then

Let Off Easy.

Mrs. Mary Kozar, who was up be-
fore the court Tuesday for unmercl-
fully beating her step-son, Tony, was
fined $40 and costs by Judge CosgroVe,
with the alternative of spending 30
days in the county Jail. The husband
paid the fine and costs amounting to
S26.50. AT the hearing 1t was shown
that the woman was~inethe habit of
pounding the boy and that on Friday
last she hit him several times with
piece of board in which nails had
been driven and that In the operation
she pulled off much skin and two
nails from the boys hand. The Judge
in passing sentence said he would
have given her much heavier fine
were it not for the fact that the inno-
cent husband would be the sufferer.
Humane officer Withrow was here
from Duluth and prosecuted the case.
Mr.. WithrOw took Tony to Duluth on
the afternoons train and the boy will
be sent to the Owatonna training
school.

line for ST.. Paul where they disband-
ed, voting this one Of the best, if not
the best, trips the association has in
dulged in.
We would like to detail the trip
and give our readers a full account
but cannot do SO at present by reason
of space. However, it does ones
heart good to note that in our own
state, there are beauty spots one
never can forget. While we at Ely
think much of our lakes and rivers,
let it be known that Minnesota is full
of beautiful places like our own, this
being one of the most scenic states in
the Union.
Officers for the Association were
elected as follows:

A Few Facts,

To show that Ely is on the steady
road to 10, 900 population in only few
years, the school enrolment for this
year can be taken as basis upon
which to work. The enrolment
shows $50 pupils on an increase of
over $50 over last year.
Populations in the mining towns
being figured at seven to one on the
school enrolment by, reason OF the
large number of young men employed
in the mines, the figures show that
Ely and the immediate vicinity is
possessed of $50 souls. or approxlm-
ately a population of 5000.
At this rate of increase it is safe to
say that Ely will in about five years,
under present conditions. have pop
ulatiOn of 10000.
