RAISED THE WOLF BOUNTY.
ron County Hunters Will get SIS Tor Each
Animal Killed Hereafter

One OF the principal pieces of county
legislation enacted by the county
board at It's last meeting was the
increasing OF the wolf bounty from xi5
70 S2a Wolves are on the increase
in all OF the counties of the upper
peninsula and 10 stop this increase.
many OF the county boards In the pee
ninsula have voluntarily raised the
bounty A hill has been introduced
into the state legislature intended to
raise the state share Of the bounty
paid for the determination OF wolves
aud it is very likely that the bill will
pass.
County Clerk Wall read letter TO
the board from Clerk Richardson, of
Honghton, in which that official stated
that the boad OF supervisors Of .Hough-
ton county had raised the bounty to
$50 per head on wolves The supervis-
ors talked the matter over aud decided
that bounty Of S25 would be just
about right and on motion the treas
urers was instructed TO pay that sum
for all wolf hides properly presented.
AT the present time tho state pays
~. 90 on each wolf 80 that for future
killings the county will pay $i7. 90.
unless the bill which is now before
the Legislature passes increasing the
state share.
This increase in the bounty makes
the hunting OF wolves profitable bust

the hide OF wolf is worth consider

bar 80 that when the heavily laden
train came along the switch swung
and ran the train onto the siding. A
lot OF box cars ..were standing on the

smashing the cars to kindling wood
and putting both engines out of com
mission The crews on both engines
jumped bnt every one Of them were

WORK OF THE FLAMES.
Residence OF Hans Johnson in Mapl
Grove Cutted.


The fire bell rang out It's warning
notes last Wednesday afternoon for
the first time this winter and. as is
usually the case, IL rang out on one OF
the very coolest days In the year.
The fire was at the residence Of Hans
Johnson, i'm Maple Grove, and was
caused 10y defective chimney com
muncating the fire that was burning
within 10 the roof surrounding.
When the firemen reached the place
the blaze was very small one and,
had they been able 10 get water at
once, the damage would have been
almost nothing. But the hydrant was
frozen and II took a long time TO get
the water. All hands turned In 20 save
the furniture during the wait and,
excepting the loss In breakage, etc,
all OF the contents OF the place were
saved. Water was finally turned on
but the flames had increased To such
volume that II took lot Of water and
hard work 10 conquer them, but theJ
were soon conquered.
The roof and much OF the upper
story was burned away. There was
no Insurance on the building 50 that
the loss falls very heavy upon the
family. Many provisions We're IN the
cellar and the water running down
therein caused them TO freeze.

made in the past four weeks there is
now little activity in the market.
Some misleading statements have been
published recently in regard TO pur-
chases of ore by producing consuming
interests which have been spoken OF
as showing unprecedented conditions.
IL is true this year as in the past, that
some firms and companies that mine
and sell ore have bought for their
own use but IL is done because their
own ores do not have some peculiar
content needed IN their mixtures
For example. one Cleveland firm
which sells ore and also operates blast
furnaces has purchased, for their own
use in making one brand OF iron. Ger
tain ore on account or its alunina
which its own ores do not have. II is
not true, however. that there have been
large purchases by those interests.
The sale Of twelve wh4lebacks yes
sells OF the steel cororation's 3 feet
means the beginning of the passing Of
the pig from the lakes. The cor.
poratios still has fifteen vessels of this
type. but they are for sale and will in
time be replaced by steam vessels Of
large tonnage. The principal obiec-
tion 10 the whaleback Is that it,
matches are so constructed that auto.

not be used Iron Trade Review

TAPPING BIG WATER
BODY AT The DUNN
WORK or eMPTYlNG THE OLD NINE
@a~-- BEGUN.
TWO ADDITIONAL CHUSHERS
One at the Lamont and the Other at the
Dunn Big Pump in Place at Great
Western Lamont Dry.

The work cf tapping the immense
body Of water that stands in the open
pit and underground workings OF the
Dunn mine was started last Wednes.
day when the WORK Of setting the
casing pipe for the drill hole that Is
10 tap the water was started Cole a
Mcdonald have the WORK in hand aud
their experience in handling such
pieces OF work Is sufficient evidence
that il will be successfully accomplish
ed. To tap this water diamond drill
holes will be bored from the breast OF
the drift at the new shaft 70 the wate-
body a 100 feet away The holes will
be fiat and az the collar u each is a
firmly secured casing pipe with a
valve to regulate the flow Of water.
Three OF these holes will be drilled and
II that number is.not-sufficient 10 So
cure good volume more will be put
in
Superintendent Richards has planned
method of getting rid Of large
quantity OF this water that is novel
and IL successful will probably be
initiated hereafter The new shaft
il 200 feet deep and the water In
the old mine stands about 900 feet
above the point In the drift at which
the tapping is done. There is four
inch pipe in the shaft used as an air
line. Connection will be made be
tween the pipes leading from the
diamond drill holes below and the air
pipe and the water will be forced up
in the pipe nearly 10 the surface. A
common blowing arrangement will be
fitted 10 the big pipe in the mean time
and the water blown out as long rs
there is sufficient pressure 70 insure
Irofug-so. Blowing out water has been
found 70 be the least expensive method
Of unwatering mine, provided there
Is good head OF water TO furnish
pressure and the contrivance which
Mr. Richards is putting in use assures
u good head for several hundred feet.
This experiment will be closely watch
ed oy other mine operators in this dis
trict
The big Prescott pump ordered for
the Dunn some time ago, will be in
place 10y the time 'that the drill holes
ARE bored and that machine will be
added 10 the unwatering apparatus
