INTERESTING
SIGHT.
Two Racing Balloons Pass
Over Ely.

Teose of our cities who had occas-
ion to be out Tuesday night after the
hours when the ''liG' in Ely is sup
posed to be working overtime, tell of
an interesting sight when two of the
large racing balloons let loose at ST.
Louis Monday passed over our city.
The ships of the air we're monsters In
size and carried pink lights. The &C.
cupants of one of the cars, evidently
Germans signaled by holding up two
fingers showing there were two and
they wished a couple of high ones.
When they became aware the lid was
on, the airship executed a complete
turn about and the last words heard
were Mach Milwaukee retOur'" The
other followed the. first one. This
tale is vouched fer by several, the
only discrepancy in She stories being
in the color of the lights.

Ore Shipments.

Just week of the month of OctOb-
er remains and if the weather con-
tinues as good as it has been, the ore
shipments for the month will eclipse
those of September, or equal them
anyway, which is most unusual for
October.
The Duluth. Missabe g. Northern
road broke all its previous records in
September. The total of shipments
for the month made those of the
previous high months look small,
which was an innovation in ore ship
ping, inasmuch as all previous years
have shown perceptible falling off
in shipments after the first of Septem-
Der.
And to see the month of October
overtaking September, or even tieing
1t, in the matter of iron ore shipments
is quite new.
AS the situation looks now, it would
seem that the Missabe's chances of ex-
ceeding the tWo-million ton mark in
shipments for the month OF Octob Der.
are good. The figures are to be well

A Problem.

The following incident is related
by country exchange: A farmers
wife took her poultry to market in
two lots, placing 80 of the finest
chickens in one crate and the 30 poor
est in another. The butcher offered
her ST pair for the first lot and 81
for each three in the second lot. Fig
uring that she would receive S25 for
her chickens the woman accepted the
offer. But the butcher paid her only
s24, and when she said that the price
was offered was $25 he explained the
matter thus: At ST for each pair of
chickens in one crate and ST for each
three in the other she should receive
50 for chickens, and as there were
twelve punches of five chickens each
in the entire lot of go, the price paid,
S24, was correct. Altho the woman
felt that the butcher had somehow
gained dollar on the deal she took
the money and went home.

High School Football Team
Loses to Tower By Mar
row Margin.

The Ely High School team went to
Tower last Saturday where they were
defeated by a team composed of High
School players and Others by score
Of 6 to 5.
The game was we'll played and eX-
citing at times as several long runs
were made by the Ely backs, but slow
work on the part of the Tower team
in running off their plays made the
game dead at times from spectators
standpoint.
The two teams will play at Ely to-
morrow and the Ely coach and play
ers are all confident of wiping out
their defeat of last week.
Mclaughlin played the best game
for Tower while Capt. Williams, Jake
Skala, Tom Harri and John HariO did
the best work for the Crimson team.
Tom Harri sustained quite an injury
TO his left eyelid but gamely stuck
through the game.
Tower won the toss and McLaugh-
lin kicked 80 yards, Ely returning the
ball 10. Ely made first down twice
and then Tower secured the ball on
downs on Ely's 30 yard line. By a sue
cession of end plays Mclaughlin sue
ceeded in making a touchdown for
Tower after eight minutes of play.
He also kicked an easy goal. Score
Ely Tower 6.
Williams kicked off forty yards to
Gordon who went down in his tracks
by the Ely end. Mclaughlin failed
to gain in two downs so punted forty
yards to Skala who ran the punt back
for twenty Harri hit tackle for four,
Williams guard for three, and on the
next play Skala made thirty yards in
a pretty quarterback run. Two more
plays Melted seven yards and Williams
was sent through guard of four yards
and a touchdown. Skala missed goal.
Score Ely Tower6.
The rest of the half the ball was in
Towers territory and time was called
with the ball in Ely's possession on
Towers 10 yard line.
In the second half the ball was in
Towers territory all the time but
slow work on the Tower captains
part in calling signals delayed the
game and prevented Ely from scoring
again.
The Lineup was as follows:

Swamp Lands.

Before the Duluth land officials
this week twenty-five settlers in $40
are contesting the rights of the state
of Minnesota to .andS on the grounds
that they are not swamp and are fit
for cultivation. 'Ise first Of the
twenty-five cases was begun Monday
morning, that of Jerry Cavasin
against the state. Capt. Smallwood
represents Cavasin and W. e. Culkin
is defending the state.
Altogether there are between 1000
and 1000 acres of land involved in the

is expected they will continue to the

FOURTEEN MONTHS
Actual Residence Required
On Claim.

The government is drawing the
lines tighter around the citizens who
wish to acquire land by filing on
claims.
After next November, a citizen wish
ing to acquire title to claim must
show that he has been an actual resi-
dent upon it for period of IA months
from the date of entry. 1t has been
the custom in the past for anyone
wishing to gain homestead in this
way to file on claim, construct a
shack, abandon it and return just be-
fore the first six months were up and
then live there the remaining eight
months, when title to the property
would be granted. From now on they
must show actual residence made in
good faith and cultivate the land for
the full period of IA months.
Where such communication proof is
offered under an entry made prior to
November 1, 1907, if it be satisfactor-
lily shown that the entryman had in
good faith established actual resi-
dence on the land within six months
from the date of entry, he may be
credited with constructive residence
from the date of his first entry, pro-
vided, that it also be shown that
such residence was maintained for
such period as when added to the
period of constructive residence equals
the full period of IA months, as re-
quired by the homestead laws.

MERRY CHRISTMAS DAY IN HAvRE
and
Hearts are e1adeG

nearly five hundred yot1ng hearts, the
thoughts it put into their minds and
the wholesome tone it gave to public
sentiment, reflected the practicability
and the genuineness of such festival
and now that it was inaugerated and
executed under such splendid auspices
there can be no doubt as to its per
petuation.
Long before the doors Of the opera
house were opened the children were
assembling, and at four-thirty o'clock
the building was filled to overflowing,
among them being many parents and
friends
The opera house was most elaborat-
|ly decorated on all sides with trees
and branches Of fir tres, which, to-
getherwith the long strands OF holly
and red berry festooned overhead mad
an. exceedingly delightful picture to be
hold. In the center Of the floor
roped off, was the huge Christmas
| tree trimmed, while around it stack
ed up were piles of candies, nuts
and toys.
