more than two years, are ready to be
placed. These will be put into posi-
ton as soon as the experts from Chi
cago arrive to take up the work.
These windows are marvelously

magnificent building. The stations
of the cross are wonderfully wrought
and are magnificent. The marble al
tar has been ordered and is nearly
completed The work of placing this
will be done b; experts and the altar
will be a great credit TO the build
ing.
The organ which is now on the
way to Salt Lake from the factory,
will be placed in a few weeks. The
plastering has been completed all
through the building and the cathe-
dral will be ready for occupancy in
a short time when it will be conse-
Grated with impressive ceremonies.
THE Rt. Rev. Bishop Scanlan has
promised the good Catholics Of Ely
that he will come here in a few
weeks in company with Father W. X.
Ryan, and perhaps with others of the
clergy. and will conduct mission
for some time.
AS soon as arrangements can be
made Bishop Scanlan will give Ely
a permanent parish priest. when all
of the services of the church can be
regularly conducted. The people of
Ely have a warm spot in Bishop
Scanlan's heart and he has promised
to expedite the matter of appointing
a priest for this field as quickly as
he can"

FAMOUS OXEN
ON TOWNSHIP
ShelIenbarser's ROans Will Be Used
In Hauling Stone to
Depot Site

Memories of old time farming days
before the introduction of the porta-
BILE engine and other modern devices
for the Tightening of the labor of the
tillers of the soil and hewers of wood
and stone will be recalled to the old
timers minds by an innovation to
be made by the Ely Townsite compa-
ny in its work of building the new
passenger station at Ely City.
In the construction of this build
ing the fine pink granite to be used
will be hauled to the site from the
flat cars by a span of oxen that have
been purchased for that purpose from
Jake Shellenbarger.
The animals are famous through
out Steptoe Valley because of their
Drodigious strength. They are roans
perfectly matched and broken to har-
ness. They have been in use for sev-
eral years on the Shellenbarger ranch
in the heavy hauling. and are said
TO have proven Of greater value than
horses where exceptionally heavy
work is required, and when there is
ample time for its performance. 1t
is the purpose of the company to add
another team OF oxen to the working
force within u few weeks
This step has been made necessary
partly by reason of the shortage of
first class draught animals in the ad-
jacent markets.
