Remove Ban on Dancing

The New York conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church held
an important session Monday at
which matters of moment to the
denomination were considered. One
subject that created much comment
was the resolution recommending
to the general conference that para
graph 26 of the church discipline,
which advises against dancing, card
playing, theater going, etc., be
eliminated, was adopted by an al
most unanimous vote. Much to
the general surprise there was no
debate on this question. Only
seven delegates voted against the
resolution.
If the general conference ap-
proves of the step, it was explained,
it will not mean that Methodists
alter their position, but simply
make it matter of conscience.

+" BILL" BLUNT
Dies on Kabetogoma Lake a
Week Ago

A great many of our citizens will
remember Bill" Blunt, an old
timer on the Vermi1ion range,
whose death occurred at Tom
Knox's stopping place on Kabeto-
gonna lake a week ago last Satur-
day. He had many friends in Ely,
where he resided for several years.
At one time Bill" and Roxy"
Mead were the main source of in
spiration for all the social events
hereabouts, these two furnishing
the music.
Cheerful Bill was one of the
most eccentric characters, of which
this county possessed several in the
early days. 1t is claimed he start
ed out in life as Mississippi river
boatman and came to the Vermi1ion
range when it was first opened up.
1t is claimed that he received So
600 at one time for a timber claim,
but the money did not last long.
He then went locating and during
the Rainy Lake gold excitement
made considerable money placing
prospectors on promising claims.
Bill" was not a quarre1some
man, but when it came to fstic
argument he was all there and con-
sidered bad man. Some of the
real tough gents of the ranges
early days have cause to remember
Blunt. He was about so years of
age at the time of his death. For
the past few years he has made his
home at Kettle Falls.

DISTRESSING
ACCIDENT
r. S. Miller Falls Under a
Street Car at st. Paul.
Seriously Injured

i 1t was with feelings of utmost
regret that word was received here
Monday afternoon of an accident
which befe1l R. S. Miller at St.
Paul on that day. Mr.. Miller has
been taking treatment at the
Mounds sanitarium there for some
time for general breakdown caused
by too close attention to his con-
stantly increasing general mercan-
tile business. He was getting
along as well as could be expected
and was looked for home in a short
time to spend the summer at his
cottage on the lake.
According to late reports, it
seems that on Monday, the weather
being exceptionally fine, Mr.. Mil
Ter and several other patients, ac
companied by. one of the male
nurses at the hosbital, went out for
a walk in the park. In some man
ner unknown Mr.. Miller strayed
only short distance from his COM
panions and when next seen it was
found he had fallen in such a man
ner that the hind trucks of street
car had passed over both his lower
limbs, crushing them in fright
full manner.
He was at once taken to the hos
pital, where it was found amputa-
ton was necessary. One foot was
removed near the ankle while the
other limb required amputation
above the knee. The patient is
resting comfortably and the ply
sicians claim he will recover. A
telegram to Mrs. Miller and T. E.
Miller took them at once to his
side, they leaving Thursday morn
ing.
Mr.. Miller has been in active I'M
interrupted commercial business
since 1888, beginning as clerk in
general store at Hayward, Wis.
He came to Ely in 1888 as one of
the firm of Dobie Bros. & Miller,
and was resident manager of the
firm until 1891 when he purchased
all interests and became sole owner.
During the time from 1892 he has
been ably assisted in the manage
ment of his immense business by
his brother, T. E. Miller.
The many friends of R. S. in
Ely and elsewhere hope for speedy
recovery.

JOKE THAT WAS
NOT A JOKE
Horse and Buggy Stolen From
Newly Welded Couple
Last Night.
CHIEF OF POLICE HAS IDEA.
THINKS THAT THE AFFAIR WAS
NOT MEANT FOR JOkE-VlGl-
LANCE COMMITTEE CAME TO
RICHMOND.

What some believe was a joke per-
netrated by friends of the bridegroom,
Walter L. Shaw, who was married last
night to a young woman living some
distance south of Eaton, brought Wig
ilance committee to this city today in
search of a suppose6to-be- stolen
horse and buggy The outfit is the
property of Shaw and thinking to
make life interesting for him on the
occasion OF his marriage, the horse
and buggy were taken two miles away
and left in school yard. The report
went out that the outfit had been stol-
en- and committee of prominent citi-
zens started to make a search, with
the result that the outfit was found
in good condition. The men came to
Richmond today in search of the mai
NAL but were notified after their arri-
val that there had not been a theft.
This Is one Of the style of joke that is
termed "practical', but in which the
victim can never see anything that re
sembles the practical, even by the
widest flight of imagina ton.
There were some indications that
the horse had been driven to Boston
and back and Chief of Police Bailey
entertains some doubt as to whether
the affair was joke. 1t is not prob
able that anything more will come Of
the matter as it would be difficult to
prove any intent.
