IMPROVEMENT OF STREET
CONDITIONS IMPERATIVE
Great Danger of Pneumonia and
Throat Trouble to School Chill
drcn This Winter.

Improvement of the streets of Ely
is a need which the beginning of the
winter season has brought into much
prominence. Since the rains of last
week and Sunday the thoroughfares
in the old town have been in such
condition as to almost prohibit wom-
en- and children from attempting
their use.
A physician who commented on
the situation yesterday declared that
unless something was done for the
betterment of the streets and the
sidewalks there would be a great deal
of pneumonia and throat trouble to
contend with during the winter
without cause other than neglect of
improvements which should be made
by the town in protection of the peo-
pie. Particularly is the health of
school children endangered. They
are obliged to wade through the
sloppy, muddy streets and then to
sit for hours in the school room with
wet feet and bedraggled clothes.
In Ely City there is practically the
same soil to contend with as in the
old town of Ely. However, the ex-
cellently graded streets in the new
town carry the rainfall off and storms
had so far this season have brought
no mud to them to speak of. On the
other hand, instead of making quag-
mires of the thoroughfares the rains
have improved those in the new
town.

UNCLE" JESSE KNIGHT
SAYS REPORT INCORRECT

PROVO, Oct 2S.-The report that
the latest strike of rich ore in the
Colorado mine extends into the
ground of the Sioux Consolidated
caused a little stir in the circles
where the Knight properties were dis
cussed today, but Uncle Jesse
Knight says the report is incorrect.
The strike in the new cave in the
Colorado is about the same as that
encountered a few weeks ago and is
of high grade ore rich in lead.
When asked for an opinion as tc
the relation of the present market
value and the real value of the min
ing stocks in which he is interested
Mr.. Knight did not hesitate to say
that the Colorado and Beck Tunnel
were worth what they were selling
for, but that the prospects were al
too high, and even the Beck Tunne
has a lower grade of ore than was
taken out some time ago. His adj
vice was not to buy prospects at the
present rate of listed prices, at least
until they struck ore.
When his attention was called tt
the report that the men who were
working on the grade near the Colo
RADIO and Sioux lines had been called
off because of the danger imminen1
to the miners in the cave, Mr. Knigh
said it was all false and absolutely
ridiculous to think of. The mel
have been at work all the time ant
will continue so to do for an indefi
mite period.

MILLS OF JUSTICE
GRIND BIG GR|ST
"CIrN PACKER" Is GIVEN STIFF
TIME by JUDGE CARTWRIGHT
IN POLICE COURT.

The court of Justice of the Peace
Cartwright, who sat yesterday in the
dual capacity of police magistrate
and justice of the Peace, resembled
a metropolitan police court, with the
exception thar there was no court
crier, there were no blue coated
brass buttOned minions of the law,
and there was not throng of idle
curiosity seekers watching the work
of the mill of justice as it ground out
its grist
w. j. Draper, who was arrested
for creating a disturbance at the
home of John Hudgins, city marshal,
while Mrs. Hudgins was alone in the
house, was fined $40 for disturbance
of the peace. was decided to be
inadvisable to file a more serious
charge, in order that the unpleasant
notoriety that would be attached to
the case might be avoided.
William Mick lejohn, charged with
fighting on the streets and creating
a disturbance, was fined $40 and
costs.
In the justice court, two gun
packers" were given the minimum
penalty prescribed by law. They were
Tom Wakeland, who was caught
with a .32 calibre revolver in his pos
session, and without having a permit
to carry the weapon. He was as
sessed 500 and costs.
G.. Peombo, charged also with car
rying a pistol will be tried today.
William McCarty, charged with
creating a disturbance, was sentenced
to serve fifteen days in Jail. 1t is
| believed by Justice Cartwright that
the work on the chain gang for that
period will be beneficial to McCarty's s
disposition and rob him of part,
at least, of his propensity for making
trouble. McCarty, who was released
only a few days ago, was drunk,
fighting, and creating general dis
turbance in the streets when he was
taken into custody by Constable Tom
/ Wilson.
