Heavy Purchase of Steam Shovels.

twenty-five steam shovels have
thus far been sold for delivery to
the mining interests and stripping
contractors of the iron ranges in
St. Louis county the coming spring.
The twenty. second shovel to be
sold was ordered by Walter Butler
OF St. Paul who was at the Spauld-
ing last evening. All the steam
shovels ordered for the mining re-
gion of St. Louis county are of the
Bucyrus type except two, which are
Marion machines. Fourteen of the
Bucyrus shovels are of 80 tons, for
the Oliver Mining company, and all
of the others are lotion machines.
Following is a list of the purchasers
of the steam shovels:
Oliver Mining company, II; Cleve-
land Cliffs Iron company, 2; con-
sumers Ore company, /; Porter
Bros, l; Butler Bros, l; Shenango
Furnace company, l; Tesora Mining
company, l, and Corrigan Mckinney
& Co., l. The last two companies
purchased shovels of the Marion
type.-News Tribune.

range in long time" said a. Hib.
bling man in Duluth recently, "was
the sharp trick some fellows played
on the men who struck on the strip
ping work at the Leonard and Mon
roe Tener mines last fall. The
strikers heard that the sheriff was
going to send up some deputies to
preserve order and they we're much
disturbed. This gave an idea to a
couple of chaps. They went to
some of the more turbulent of the
strikers and made deal to sell
them strike licenses at So each. I
don't know how many were taken
at this price, but know that quite
number we're purchased by the
strikers. The sellers assured the
buyers that the documents would
be an absolute protection against
interference by the sheriff, and
they could make all the disturbance
they wished. l presume that those
licenses could be bought at dis
count now"

Will Reopen the Troy.

Pickands, Mather & Co., lessees of
the Troy mine near Eveleth, will
reopen that property for the COM
ing season, preparations for the un-
watering of the property being now
under way. The mine was closed
in May last owing to the low price
of ore and the discouraging pros
poets of the trade at that date.
When closed stockpile of about
11jOOO tons was on hand which has
been shipped. The mine produces
low percentage ore. averaging
from 50 to 60, and when running
double shift has been developed to
a point where employment is fur
nished to about 100 men.

An Irish King of Portugal.

An Irishman was once king of Por-
tugal, or at least he ono ruled in the
kings stead over that country. In No
vember, 1910, there was a revolution in
Portugal, brought about by the tyran-
nical exactions of Miguel Vasconcellos,
the secretary of state. The hated min
lister was shot and the vice queen, Mar
garet of Savoy, abdicated. The crown
was offered to the Duke of BraganZa,
who was iiving at Villavicosia. Mean
while, until the duke should accept the
crown, the people of Lisbon elected a
popular and influential Irish merchant,
named John Darcy, who resided in the
city, us their nominal king. Darcy ac-
copied the honor conferred upon him
and bore the title of liking of Portugal
from Dec. / to Dec. 6. 1640.

NELSON L DEAD.

It's with deep regret that we are
compelled to chronicle the death of
Nelson, the ten years old son of Mr.,
and Mrs. James Milks, Of Manches,
ter vicinity, which occurred Thurs.
day evening as the passenger
train was entering the town of Ar
lington, Mr.. Milks and DR.. Broad
way then being on the way to
Rochester to have an operation per-
formed upon him.
The circumstances leading to the
death of Nelson are particularly sad
The family had left home that day
to come to De Smet for a day of
pleasure with no thought of impend.
ing danger to one of their number.
They attended the ball game in the
afternoon and the boy, who was in
the midst of a crowd of several hun
dred was struck just back of the ear
by a foul ball with such force as to
render him unconscious for several
hours. He then seemed to recover
to quite an extent then grow worse,
and then again recovered. There was,
of course, no outward appearance OF
the abcess which undoubtedly form
ed and broke on the inside, aud
when the general symptoms indicat-
ed an absess forming it was to late
to secure relief by al operation, and
it is also probable that other fea,
lures of the injury fastened the end.
Under such circumstances the
death of the young lad is excep-
tionally sad. 1t vas a day of
pleasure changed to a day of mourn
ing.
The remains were brought back to
De Smet Friday morning and the
funeral held at st. Thomas church,
conducted by Very Rev. j. F. Hog

CHILDREN'S DAY--DIST. NO. 2.

Sunday, June 18th, the Iroquois
Rural Baptist Sunday School gave a
pleasing Childrens' Day program
About one hundred people attended
and all seemed to enjoy the service.
One very nice feature was the
music, Two emblematic pieces
were given, one by the young la
dies, the other by the young men Of
the school. Fourteen girls all in
white rendered the "Arch of Fame"
an exercise which is full of meaning
and beauty. Nine boys dressed in
blue and white sailor suits presented
a fine APPEARANCE as they gave "The
Voyage of Life in the Ship Evangel,"
Home talent produced this. There
was also an exercise "The Floral
Cross" by nine little children. These
pieces with the recitations and good
music made a program of real worth.
Decorations were abundant and
beautiful. Besides numerous wild
flowers and green branches tastefully
arranged in the room there were
roses and carnations, which, after
the meeting served as souvenirs,
whichwere sent to each home rep
resented there. Four dollars and
twenty FIVE cents was raised for mis-
sionery purposes.
This is a prosperous little Sunday
school. Meetings are held each Sab
bath afternoon at 3 o'clock in the
school house in district No. 2, Iro,
quois township, Prayer meeting
every Thursday evening at $50,
Anyone welcome.
