IA. ON. M. Supreme Lodges New Plan OIL
Rates caioingin Favor.
.lt j said BY well-poSted members Of
the Ancient Order Of United Work
men that the opposition to the su-
premc lodges plan Of asscssment rates
is rapidly disappearing Many Of the
representatives who voted against IL
now believe that 10 was a mistake not
TO adopt IL. and are READY to vote for
il as soon as they have the oppor-
tuuity.
Careful consideration of the points
brought out during the discussion in
the grand lodge, together witha study
Of existing conditions, has altered the
opinions OF many representatives.
The members in general do not con-
slider the matter settled, and are
anxious TO know more about the var
ious features of the plan. Deputies
and Others, who have been visiting
the lodges, report a very general de-
sire TO have the matter settled once
and for all, so that everyone may
know what TO expect in the future.
The supreme lodge, il is said, will
undoubtedly add some very attractive
features TO the plan, and improve
those already In force, and the men,
bers OF the grand lodge should be pre-
pared TO take up the matter again.
The grand lodge now has the power to
amend It's laws at special session, so
that any emergency can easily be met.
No effort is being made or will be
made on the part OF the grand lodge
officers 70 force the adoption of the
plan, but demand on the part OF the
members or their duly elected repre-
sentatIyes for further legislation will
receive attention as provided by law.
The matter is now i'm the hands OF the
members, and what the members
want they can easily get by going
after il. 1t is believed that by the
adoption OF the new plan the order
would recover the ground lost during
the agitation OF the important ques-
tion.
The action taken by the grand lodge
at its last session, i'm the nature OF
substitute for the supreme lodge plan,
has failed TO rectify past mistakes.
The new plan In its entirety assures a
limit OF twelve assessments, gives the
young man lower rate than at pres
ent and assures the older men all the
options afforded by its adoption.

The past week has been taken up
with the commencement exercises of
our schools and nearly every one 10
Crystal Falls has bcSn In closer touch
with the doings OF the school during
the past week than at any other time
since the school bell rang for the open
ing session last September. The gem
eral comment heard among the people
Is that the exercises were better than
the average and especially is this true
of the work OF the graduating class.
The baccalaureate sermon was de-
liyered at the court house last Sunday
evening and large attendance was
registered Rev. Poyseor discoursed
for an hour on lessons from the life of
st. Paul, the aim of his discourse be-
ing to emphasize the paramountcy of
the spiritual life as depicted In the
life OF Christ. The discourse was a
mastery one and was we'll received.
On Monday afternoon the audience
chamber OF the court house was crowd
ed to its utmost capacity TO listen to
the class day exercises of the graduat-
ing class. The class OF 1904 is, on an
average, stronger than the classes
that have graduated for the past few
years. Their work showed careful
training and close application and
was far ahead of the last class day
exercises held. The teachers who
have had charge of the work OF this
class for the past year deserve especial
mention as their efforts were clearly
noticeable in the class of work done.
Mary Liberty captured the first
place in the hearts OF the listeners for
her good work and mastery delivery.
Harry Wills was close second and
Eottie Justified and Bessie Holmes
also crowded her closely for honors.

SCHOOL ELECTION
ON JULY H.
THREE MEMBERS or THE BOARD TO
BE ELECTED ON THAT DATE.
ANOTHER BLASTING ACCIDENT
Two Men Injured. one Dead. From Pre-
mature Blast in Hemlock Mine at
Amasa.

The second animal election under
the new school law by which Crystal
Falls city and township is inoolpmat-
ed into one school district viii be held
on Monday the 18th day Of July as
will be seen by the OFFICIAL call in
another column of this issue.
At this election three new members
OF the board are TO be elected, or
this number one must reside outside
of the corporate limits of the city and
two within, the provisions Of the law
being such that the township shall
have two representatives on the board
and the city three.
The members whose terms expire
are Arvid Bjork, city member who
held over from the old board, John
Parks, member from the township
who was elected year ago and also
the term of A. Justified, deceased.
There has been no stir which would
indicate that contest is on for posi-
tions on the board and 1t is not likely
that much excitement will be had.
The Hemlock mine was the scene of
another sad blasting accident last
Thursday morning about l;30. 1t oc-
Cured i'm the same drift in which the
accident OF the same nature occurred
last December
Henry Thompson, Andrew Lahti
and John Hautala were working In
the breasto of the drift drilling a round
OF holes Two machine were'working,
Thompson and Lahti being the run
ners and Hantala helping on both.
The day shift bad blasted and one of
their holes didn't break TO the bottom.
A bottom, estimated to be about one
and one-half feet, remained. The
three men examined the piece OF hole
and decided that 1t contained no pow
der. 1t developed that they were
wrong; that the hole contained some
powder which, in some unaccountable
way, was not discharged when the
other powder in the hole exploded.
One of the drills pierced the hole
and exploded the powder. Hantala
was in the act of bending over when
the charge exploded and his head was
blown from his body. The other two
men were standing up TO their
machines and were Lot killed but both
of them were badly injured.
The dead man was buried Thursday
evening. He was single man and
had been at Amasa about a year.
The other two men are still alive but
Lahti is very low.

FscANABA GOT SLIM PICKING
Locals Took both Games From the
Youngsters Niagara Plays
Here Tomorrow.

The Oliver Mining company has
added another TO IT'S list Of idle proper
ties In the Iron County district. The
McGiliis mine att Iron River is the
last one To feel the effect of the re-
tfenchment policy OF the gigantic
concern The pumps were ordered
pulled out of the mine last Monday
and the water is now rapidly hlling
the openings
The McGillis mine is the one upon
which the Steel company recently
took a lease and It is supposed that
the immediate reason for the taking
out OF the lease at this time Is that
the company was satisfied that the
property was worth the money they
had to pay for it and TO close it down
under lease was cheaper than to
continue TO work under an option.
The McGillls is agood property and
the shut down is not occasioned by
any lack of confidence Of the opera
tors in the property.

The champion" club Of the city of
Escanaba had something done TO it on
the local field last Saturday and Sun
day. The locals had an easy time OF it
disposing Of the young men but it must
be said in favor of Escanaba that
they are the best bunch of players in
field work that has appeared upon the
diamond this year.
Saturdays game was very nice one
and very interesting from start TO
finish. An unfortunate overthrow OF
the third baseman let in three runs in
the third inning that would not have
piled up In such number had the error
not occurred.

Hover, new man from Duluth,
played third base in Sundays game.
He had been riding all night and was
not in condition to put up a good game
but made good impression on the
fans.
The Escanabas were nice lot OF
young fellows. They have played to-
gether for number OF years and with
more experience in fast company will
be knotty bunch to butttinto.
Nathan Warshawsky taught some
Escanaba sympathisers the meaning
OF the word "mazuma".

them fell down on and failed to
connect with the sphere. Only eight
scattering hits were made of his de-
livery and, but for an error In the first
and another in the ninth, the visitors
would have been blanked.
The locals swatted the sphere all
over the diamond but the field work Of
the Escanabas was superb and they
managed to keep the safe hits down
pretty well, several hits that seemed
good for arun being gathered in,
The score by innings was as follows.

Boys Who Destroyed Mr.. Browns Blocks
Taught lesson.


Last Saturday night fourteen OF the
cement stone which is being manu-
factured for the new Diamond Drill
building by G. III. Brown were totally
destroyed. The despoiler had deliber-
ately jumped upon the soft stone and
tramped them to pieces. In making the
stone, gravel and cement are mixed to-
gether and then put into mould
where 1t Is tamped so that IL will
cling together until the cement sets,
when il is hard enough to resist any
common blow The blocks are placed
outside the building TO let the cement
set and the least blow will crush or in
dent them.
The vandals destroyed property I'd
the amount of about twenty dollars
and Mr.. Brown set at work to ferret
out the offenders.
Monday he got clew pointing TO
the guilt OF several boys from the lower
end of town, ranging from ten TO eigh-
teen years OF age. He followed up the
clews and finally got evidence enough
to convict six Of them. He then
swore out warrants and had the boys
brought before Justice Dawson on
Tuesday morning. Prosecuting At
torney Watson appeared and evidence
was introduced which left no doubt
but that the right parties were In
court When the youngsters saw
what they were up against they began
to cry good and hard. IL was their
first otfense, although some Of them
are known to be bad boys, and Mr..

YAKIMA TRIBES
INVADE SEATTLE

SEATTLE, June S.-The corridors of the
Federal court building resemble an Indian
village. The grand jury is in session and
will devote the first few days to an in
vestigation of cases in which white men
are accused OF selling liquor to Indians,
Nearly all the Indian witnesses are from
the Yakima reservation.
Twenty-eight cases, including those
against the three men accused of having
been connected with the big opium SNUG
Cling case unearthed ten days ago, are
to be investigated by the jury. The court
delivered the usual instructions to the
jury. which Immediately retired to its
chambers and began the taking of testi-
mony, under the guidance OF United States
Attorney Frye.
Meantime the score of Yakima braves
no are in attendance are lolling in their
gaily colored blankets in the Railways, and
planning what purchases they will make
with the fees and mileage that the govern
ment will pay them. The marshals never
encounter any difficulty in securing the
attendance of the Indians, all of whom are
glad of the opportunity to turn informer
against the "firewater" peddlers, which in
sures them free trip and from SIS 10
$25 in money besides.
