Buys Utah PROPERTY.

James A. Butchart, Of Duluth, is
the purchaser of the Buckhorn
property at Ophir, Utah. The
Western Exploration company and
W. F. and F. 6. Niedringhaus, of St.
Louis were the sellers. 1t is under
stood the price is between 100000
and $4,000. Mr.. Butchart is al
ready secretary and treasurer of the
Ophir Tunnel company, owning
$50 acres adjoining the 800 acres of
the Buckhorn. The Buckhorn has
produced $4,000 in values and
$4,000 has recently been spent on
Development The lowest tunnel

feet below the crest of the noun

before his death. The Ophir Tun-

Intimate Game Was Sold.

A rumor is waited from Hibbing
of, a sore spot being left in base ball
circles owing to the defeat of the
Hibbing bunch by the White Sox in
the last game of the series, Sunday
afternoon, it being claimed by some
that the game was all over before
the boys donned their knee panties,
cash consideration being used in
determining the winner.
It is also said that one of Hib-
bing's peace officers, despite his po-
sition of trust and his sworn duty
to enforce the state law against
gambling,is one of the sorest of the
sore, all because his well-known
home pride led him to forget the
teachings of his youth and stake
divers and sundry sinoleons on the
losers in a vain endeavor to transfer
an amount of Duluth coin to his
own rock heap.
Virginians who witnessed the
game, however, contend that both
sides and the umpire played ball
all the way through.

DENIES REPORT OF BIG ORE STRIKE.
Copt. Fay Says he Has Struck No Ore
on Cuyuna Range.

Capt. Fay Says he Has Struck No Ore
lon Guyana Range.
The Duluth Evening Herald of
Monday proclaimed in startling
headlines the proving of an i'm
mense deposit of high grade ore on
the lands of Thomas Feigh, in 1929,
being explored by Mayor NJ. l.. Fay
of this city,
Responsive to an inquiry relative
to the reported find Mr.. Fay denied
the correctness of the article to an
Enterprise reporter, and stated that
heconsidered such articles extreme
ly misleading, to say the least.
II am now putting down my first
hole on the Guyana range on the
Thomas Feigh lands, in 4629," said
Mr.. Fay.
1.-THE hole has cut about 80 feet of
surface, going into a slatey taconite
in which formation we have now
drilled from % to 80 feet.
II am not booming the Guyana
range, and do notbelieve that up to
the present time any merchanta BILE
ore has been found there"
The Feigh property, on which he
conducts present explorations, are
held under an option providing tor
a 20 cent royalty on minimum out
put of 100000 tons. The drill work
on the property is being done by
Cole Il Mcdonald, of this city.

not made more complete by the Co
operation Of the officials of Mis-.
|sabe Mountain township, the south
end Of the highway: being in their
territory. This end is covered with
huge boulders, and is at present
the only portion Of the road that is
absolutely impossible, it. being
found advantageous for foot pas
senger to- walk through the brush
on either eide of the highway
rather than attempt to walk in the
straight and narrow path as
marked out by the lines of what is
supposed to be road leading into
one of the richest farming districts
of northern Minnesota. 1t is hoped
that another season, at least, the
township officials may get after
this abortive attempt at road max
ing and give to the sturdy settlers
of the Pike passa BILE road through
the township portion of the dis
rtance traversed.
The Pike valley is today the home
of upwards of two hundred
hardy farmers, and sight of the
crops in evidence this season takes
one back in memory to the old
farm. Everything in the line of
garden truck is abundant and a
number of fields Of small grain and
patches of tobacco are found. The
development of the section has
been retarded for several years
through the inability of the set
tiers to get decent road to the
district, but this necessity has been
rernedied with the exception of the
small stretch of road mentioned,
and much of the produce of the
section is now marketed in this

the way we had been treated in this

SHORTAGE OF COPPER.
Nineteen Cents a Pouad IS Predicted
for It Soon.

ION IL SOO0s
Important copper interest declare
that millions of pounds of the red
metal could be sold to-day if it
could be obtained, but the supply
does not exist. They say that the
country is on the verge of a copper
famine, which will materialize,
soon, if present conditions continue
to exist for any appreciate time.
These interests predict nineteen
cents a pound for it within the next
six weeks. Large interests are be-
coming extremely cautions as to
whom they sell copper and are re-
fusing many times to sellJto those
of whom they are suspicious that
the metal might be wanted for
speculative purposes.

The brook or running stream of na- tural outdoor water gives a variety of chances for the man that wishes to live his life alright. The brook can be con- verted. without being diverted, into a swimming pool for boys by building a dam at the point where the banks do a little extra shevlving and tend to form a natural basin. The bottom should be spaded out and made more of a reser-

 dam itself can be made by family of
 boys at the cost of the lumber and nails involved. The embankments are
 sodded. The sides of the spillway are made of wooden posts driven into the ground and boarded two boxes, one on each side of the stream. These boxes are filled with sand, rock and sods to
 make a solid cubic piece of resostance The sodded embankments run across the valley or depression of the brook
