was unanimous in the opinion that the
'07 exercises were among the best ever
held in Paw Paw.
The large stage was beautifully decor
ated with the class colors, white and
green, the back being hung with white
festooned with myrtle, while in front
green and white bunting was Hastily
draped across the stage. In front and
above the stage hung the figures OF and
the class motto, "Aim High" The front
and sides were banked with profusion
OF potted plants, ferns, palms and flow
ers, the entire draping and decoration
producing a very tasty and pretty effect.
At eight o'clock the orchestra played
the opening march, when the IA grad
yates, preceded by the teachers of the
high school, marched up the aisle and
took seats on the stage.
After the invocation by Rev. A. w
Mumford, Mia l.. Butler delivered the
salutatory in a very creditable manner.
The class history was we'll written and
delivered by Adelbert G. Linderman, at
ter which the orchestra rendered de-
lightful selection from THE Time, The
Place and The CIR"
The Grafton, Failure an Element OF
Success" showed much thought and
study, and was given in forceful man
ner by Paul Ii Smith.
William II Howe in his inimitable
style bequeathed to each member of the
class some memento of the school year
Another selection by the orchestra
was followed by an Grafton, "Gradatim,'
by Nora f.. Colburn, after which Carrie
Amanda Briggs predicted the future OF
her classmates.
After the american PATROL by the
orchestra, Genevieve e. Conklin gave
reading, PRO Patria." This young lady
has exceptional ability as a reader, and
the selection was well received.
The valedictory was given by &. Rus
sell Clapp. He spoke with much feeling
of the years the class had spent together
and the pleasant associations with
teachers and schoolmates.
After the Bridal chorus from Cowan
by the high school, the diplomas were
presented by w. G.. Y. Ferguson, who
spoke to the members of the class in
few we'll chosen words.
The benediction was pronounced by
Rev. J. III. Coultard and a selection from
The Isle of Bong Bong" played by the
orchestra and the exercises were ended
The music by the orchestra was eX-
celent, and the members of the class
did credit to themselves, their parents
and their instructors, who receive great
credit for the work of the year and the
browning event in the young lives of the
graduates.
The Alumni banquet will be held at
the K. of r. hall tonight, when the

Welcome at Lawton.

BY special invitation Paw Paw Odd
fellows to the number OF about 70 visit
ed their Lawton brethren last Monday
evening and conferred the second degree
on a class of three candidates. The Wis
itors took with them the Paw Paw cor
net band, the Maple City orchestra and
a martial band, all members of Paw
Paw lodge.
The special train, which was chartered
for the occasion, was unavoidably late,
so that it was nearly $3.50 when the lodge
was opened. The Paw Paw boys have a
state wide reputation for doing the
Royal Blue work, a reputation which
was in no wise married on this occasion.
The degree was conferred in the commo-
dious town hall, which had been spe-
cially arranged for the work and which
was beautifully and tastefully decorated
with the national colors.
At the close of the work the assem-
bled company repaired to the Oddfel-
low hall where bounteous midnight
repast was awaiting them, The tables
were served by some of the finest and
handsomest of the Lawton ladies and
the service was simply perfect.
The visitors reached home at l o'clock
in the morning we'll pleased with their
experience and thoroughly satisfied that
among entertainers Lawton lodge, |. O..
o. F., is entitled to occupy a place in
the front rank.

Silver Queen Inspected.

Merit Owen, proprietor of the
Stock Yards hotel, Denver, came
up on last Sunday mornings train
and inspected the Newhouse tun-
mel workings of the Silver Queen
mine, in which he is part owner.
He was chaperoned by John T.
Mallalieu, Samuel Brethour and
II. O. Walker. Mr.. Owen found
very satisfactory condition of
affairs at the Silver Queen, al
though the main ore shoot with
which he is familiar has not yet
been reached. Years ago he
worked upon the property and a
great deal of ore was marketed. In
the course of this work tellurium
ore was encountered, so rich that
one consignment of 80 pounds to
the local sampler in this city re-
turned nearly 81 900, or at the
rate of SIS 900 to the ton. This
was an exceptional deposit, it is
true, but it serves to show the gen
eral character of the vein for high
grade mineral. Aside from this
shipment considerable of the de-
posit was reserved for cabinet spec
linens, some of which are now in
the cabinet of the First National
bank of this city. The shipment
caused much excitement among
the prospectors and operators Of
this camp and every available foot
of ground in the vicinity of the
Silver Queen was corraled and the
owners of the mine were spurred
to yet greater endeavor. Unfor-
tunately at this juncture fault in
the vein was encountered and Al
though the operators expended
much time and money in search of
the lost shoot, in so doing encoun-
tering good ore but of an entirely
different character, the tellurium
streak remains to be found. 1t is
we'll to state that the Silver Queen
is very large vein and in such it
is not uncommon for ore streaks
to be lost in one of the walls, ne
cessitating prosecuting or other
exploitation. 1t is not unlikely
that with the present operations
through the Newhouse tunnel the
main ore shoot will soon be opened
and in its normal condition, as has
proved to be the case with the Gem
and other neighboring properties

depth from the start, in addition
to economy Of operation, drainage
and the transportation of all ores
by mine cars to the tunnel portal,
where mills are to be erected by
the Hoosac people for their own

Hoosac dump is but one mile from
Idaho Springs, the cost of hauling
the smelling product to this mar
ket will be nominal.
The May Queen was discovered
years ago by Ernest Beauzy, then
an oldtime prospector of this camp
and who had been signally sue
cessful. The May Queen proved
no exception to this rule, for from
the start exceedingly rich ore was
round IN place, some OF the quartz
being literally covered with free
J gold.
The acquisition of this property
by strong company, the plan of
operations, and the intention to
begin work as soon as the Hoosac
workmen reach the vein, which
means but two or three weeks from

transactions of the new year. tits
