RELIGIOUS Services.

oiate Reform ed church, last Thursday morn
iug where a great number of our people as-
sembled to give hanks for the manlioid
blessings which We have received and en-
JOY.
A few regard the day as one for religious
thoughts and exercises.
A greater number seem to think that the
proper observance OF the day consists In cru
city to ~inoffensive and defenseless creatures.
There Is still fno:her class who desecrate
the day by looking upon the wine when It
giveth its color in the cup.
From our own view point:
Thankful hearts In religious services, and
rational or innocent pleasures, is the proper
way to observe the day.

pupils and handsome invitations have
been sent out to the parents and
patrons of the school.
The citizens can well fell proud OF
the handsome showing made by the
educational institutions in this city
and their efficient corps of instruct
ors. One proof that the schools are
in advance of other towns is the fact
that pupils coming from the eighth
grade in several of the schools in
neighbOring towns, cannot satisfact-
orily pass the seventh grade upon
entering school here. TO the teach
ers however is not all the credit due.
The School Board are making it pos
sible by doing all that money and
effort can accomplish to furnish Dis
trict No. II with the best Of every
thing.
The facilities will be further en-
nanced by the new building and its
equipment. When completed and
furnished this building will cost in
the neighborhood of $40, 900 and will
be the handsomest and best equipped
building north of st. Paul with the
exception of the Duluth High School.
TO parents and pupils. Be thank
full you are living in Ely.

fifty miles Of diamond drill holes In
the Lake Superior district Ia explora.
tion work and proving ore bodies.
This means 264 900 feet. The average
cost of drilling is IS per foot, which
indicates that the company has ex.

for this purpose. AS there are many
large companies in the Lake Superior
district it can be seen without figur.

The question then arose as to what
was meant and those interested were

whether Ely was beat. Later Ia
the day a telephone message set things
right and happiness was once more
noticeable.
When the evenings train was due
to arrive, the City Band and about
two hundred people, both great and
small were at the depot to welcome
the victors. The train was 30 minutes
late. The High School colors of red
and white were everywhere to be seen
and when the train pulled In the
High School yell almost drowned the
music Of the band. The victors were
marched up the street to the drug

CELEBRATED.
Ely Will Come Forth With One
Glorious Celebration.
July 4th To Be Fittingly Observed
in This City.
TWO MONSTER EVENTS.

Advertising matter will be out in a
few days announcing celebration Of
our National holiday not to be dupli-
Gated anywhere. Ely has woke up and
will celebrate. Nelghboring towns
are cordially invited to sit up and
take notice that the only simon-pure
celebration in tie Northwest will be
held at Ely this year.
A committee has waited upon the
citizens and found that a celebration
was wanted and liberal response to-
wards the financial end of the affair
has been met with. A meeting will
be held in a few days and the various
committees appointed and program
completed.
The citizens OF the East end will
have a celebration of their own and
have already secured the funds. The
reason for this is that the people in
that end claim all events of any i'm
portance are pulled OF in the main
part of the city and the donators in
the other end are left in the lurch.
This year the celebration will be di-
vided into two distinct affairs and a
monster program will be arranged
for each.
The various programs Of sports ETC.,
have not as yet been completed but by
next week everything will be in full
swing. The MINER will keep you in
formed of the progress, but we want
all to remember that Ely is down on
the list for rip-roaring. noisy and
ploriOuS celebration of july 4th.

did extraordinary well in the part of

played by Arthur Knutson, furnished
considerable amusement. Prof. New

ability as an actor. Sllylock Is hard

Altogether the play was pleasing

NOTHING IN 1T.

Tucson (AriZ.,) Daily Star.
There is nothing in the rumor that
gambling will again be opened in
Tucson because of the shortage
which will come to the school fund,
because of the non-payment of gam
bling license. Licensed gambling
will never again make its appearance
in Tucson. If our public schools can
not be maintained without gambling
license funds then We had better
close the schools. This day and gen.

Makes a Pet of a Rooster.

Little Miss Gertrude Joyner, daugh-
ter Of DIR. w. T. Joyner, has a pet ban
tam rooster. While it might be an
easy thing to make a pet of a chick
en-, it is something that is not often
done, to the extent that this little
girl has done. Miss Gertrude's pet
bantam was secured when it was well
up in age, for a fowl, but she has
taught him to obey her in everything
She can tell him to sit on a railing,
a fence, or a certain spot in the yard
until she returns and the bantam will
mind her, and remain for a period of
five or ten minutes, at least, waiting
for his mistress to come back and
watching for the caresses he knows
she will give him. He will mind every
thing she tells him to do so far as he
is able, and will crow at her com
mand showing that he understands
her perfectly. 1t is certainly a re-
markable pet.
