$4,000 BUILDING
Brief Description of the Newly Erected and
Completed High School Building.

On March % tn 1905, the School
Board of District No. II, met to con-
slider the bids on the construction of
the High'School Building according to
plans and specifications accepted.
Smith s. Vokes of Duluth, the lowe st
bidders, were awarded the contract for
Sal 1880, and these gentlemen and
their efficient help deserve the lions
share Of credit for the able and con-
scientious manner every detail Of the
work was accomplished.
The plans and specifications for this
modern structure were drawn by the
well-known firm of architects, Frank
l.. Young & Co., and to their credit
it must be said, the most handsome
and commodious school building on
the ranges has resulted.
The building stands completed with
the exception OF the manual training
room aud the domestic science
room in the basement, which rooms
will he put in'order in short time
and these cOurses'added to the.geneIal
courses uf the High school work,
Two weeks ago the work Of moving
the High School classes into the new
building was begun and at this time
settlement has not been completed,
but gradually everything is being
placed for the convenient working OF
the institution.
The citizens Of Ely and the pupils
OF the schools can consider themselve,
blest with an institution which fOI
all time will be IA credit TO the city.
The building stands as monuments"
the enterprise, push and good Judge
ment OF the Board OF District No. II.
and to the people OF the district who
with their votes made it possible

NJ. E. Gleason at the same election
replaced Chas. Trezona on the board
as treasurer and TO Messrs McMahan.
Gleason and TorinuS was lelegated
the duty Of bringing the plans TO Il
successful close which work they have
accomplished to the satisfaction of
all concerned.
The accompanying cut is fair re-
presentation Of The building as it now
stands at the eastern end Of Harry
street between Sixth and Seventh
avenues. The grounds upon which it
stands embrace Il block and were pur-
chased from r. B. Whiteside.
The structure is 76 feet inches by
so feet in size, three stories in height
with basement. The basement, first
and second stories are - feet in
height and the auditorium 20 feet,
The auditorium being upon the third
floor.
1t has solid masonary walls and par
titions. The basement is Of stone
with cut red sandstone facing in rus
tic design. The balance Of the walls
are of concrete blocks faced with
cement pressed brick laid in coIored
mortar. Both the blocks and brick
were made upon the premises at a
saving TO the school dis
trict. There are three entrances to
the building, one at each end TO be
used by the pupils and one in front
for the board of education, superin-
tendent, teachers and visitors. Each

want long felt in school buildings.
Here minutes of quietness and rest
can be sought after strenuous APP
pllcation to duty,
The browning effect of this floor
however, is the Library, located in
the wide portion of the corridor which
is fitted with cosy seats and library
tables, the walls lined with glass
fronted book cases of a neat and tasty
design. This feature is admired by
all who have visited the building and
the effects of the cases and attendant
furniture in the wide hall, are cer-
tainly most superb.
The third story contains Physical
Laboratory; Chemical Laboratory;
two recitation rooms; two dressing
rooms and an auditorium. The lab
oratories are fitted with cases and
operating tables, sinks and slop sinks.
The auditorium is 73x56 with a fully
equipped stage, foot lights, border
lights and five sets Of scenes. A lib
eral provision has been made for exits
in case of fire as there are two stairs
leading from the auditorium, one at
each end Of the building and two easy
fire escapes from the stage at the rear
of the building. These fire escapes
connect with the cloak rooms in the
first and second stories and furnish
four ways to escape in case Of fire.
Every provision is made for the
proper diffusion of light throughout
the building by the use OF splayed
jambs in all windows and prism glass
in the auditorium. This feature Is
highly valued on account of the alb
sence Of shadows in the rooms
The interior wood finish through
out the building is of birch, stained a
rich golden brown and vanished.
The minimum of wood work is used
throughout the building and every
chance for the Judgement of dust is
avoided as far as it is possible. The

for the board to erect a structure OF
which large cities could we'll feel
proud.
The board which talked up the mat
ter and placed it before the people
was composed Of Grant McMahan as
director, ii. Van Blarcom as clerk
and ChaS. TreZona as treasurer. They
were untiring in their efforts for
building commensurate with the
needs of this constantly growing dis
trict. Mr.. Van BlarcOm's death
caused a vacancy on the board which
was filled by the appointment of Bert
e. Torinus and a little later Mr.. To-
rinus was elected to fill the office for a
year by large ma jority over the field.

tire building Is wired for electric
lights and fitted with the latest In
fixtures. 1t is also wired for bells
from each room to the superinten-
den's Office and fire gong in the hall
and program clock in the audi
forum.
Every detail was carefully thought
out by the architects and the con-
tractors have followed the plans to
the letter and have spared neither
time nor money to make it model Of
construction. The Ely High School
building is conceded by all to be the
finest in the northern part Of the
state outside Of the big cities.
The heating, ventilation and regu-
lation was installed by the American
Heating Co.. OF Duluth, and is a
model plant. As evidence of its eff1c-
iency it can be said the building was
heated during this winter without
raising single pound of steam. The
ventilating system is what is known
as the johnson system done by means
of large fan. :
The plumbing was done by our local
plumber, AL. Kolstad, and testifies to
his efficiency. f. G. Miller s. Co., in.
stalled the electric work and is
sample OF which they may feel proud.
The contract price for the heating
and ventilating system was So, 445. 90;
the plumbing $I,S79.24 and the cleo
trio work, 81, 6i5.7 10.
We are Informed by Mr.. Young, the
architect, that during the whole time
the building has been under construc-
tion there has not been one unpleas-
ant word passed between the School
Board, himself or the contractors.
When you take into consideration the
number of contractors employed and
the multiplicity of detail in connec-
tion with the work it speaks volumes
for those concerned

OPERATORS PLAN Strike Commission to Settle
 Matters In Dispute.
MINERS TO GIVE ANSWER TOMORROW
After Refusing MitchelPs Oner of Ar- bitration Mine Owners Make COun- ter Proposal to Decide the
 Muted Questions.

NEW YORK, April 11.--At the meet
 ing of the joint committee of the an thracite operators and miners the op orators submitted a counter proposi ton to President Mitchell's arbitration proposal.
 | The operators made counter pro. posal that the commission appointed by President Roosevelt in 1903 be re quested to decide whether any changes in conditions in tie hard coal regions have occurred which require that the award of the commission should be modified The mine owners limit the inquiry to two grievances, wages and a method for the adjustment of com plaints. The miners have taken the proposal under consideration and may give the operators an answer tomor- row, when another conference between the subcommittees of the two parties will be held.
 The principal points of the counter proposal were that the operators were willing to arbitrate any new matters that may have arisen since the anthra. cite coal strike commission passed up on the original differences three years ago, that the operators would still be unwilling 10 recognize the union and that in signing any new agreement with the miners it be made for a term of three instead of two years, so that it wouldn't terminate upon the eve of a presidential election.
 The counter proposition of the op- orators is in part as follows:
 You suggest that your propositions, which include recognition of the union. check off, limitation of the number of men permitted to work under a con tract miner. limitation of the amount of work which may be done by each miner. no termination of employment of any individual without arbitration and supervision of our mining opera tions generally, with all the machinery that your organization has created for controlling the coal business, shall be submitted to the board of conciliation, created by the anthracite strike com mission, board with which you have shown your dissatisfaction by asking in the propositions which you have sub mitted that 1t he abolished.
 "The board of conciliation, to which you have asked that all these serious questions be referred, was not created for any such purpose. It was design ed as minor tribunal to give effect to the awards the commission made and to determine controversies arising hereunder.
 For the reasons stated we therefore decline your suggestion to refer the questions decided by the anthracite coal strike commission to the board of conciliation."
