FEARED LYNCHING
Excitement at Winton Tues
day Rather Pronounced

Robert Prindle was taken to Du-
luth Yesterday morning by Deputy
Sheriff Levy to await the action of
the grand jury having been bound
over from Fall Lake on charge of
kidnapping.
Testimony presented showed that
Prindle had taken liberties with
Willie Peterson, aged 10 years.
The boy with two others were walk
ing along the track near Winton
when they met Prindle who grab
bed the Peterson boy. The Others
ran for town. The Peterson boy
escaped from his captor into the
woods but was caught several times.
When the marshal, who had been
summoned by the other boys, arriv-
ed, Prind1e and the boy were
emerging from the woods. He was
placed under arrest.
On the stand Prindle denied evil
intentions. He claimed he had
been drinking and thought he
would have some sport with the
boys. When he saw the boy run
into the woods he followed and
caught him, thinking he might get
lost the same as the boy did a year
ago. His story was not exactly
credited and he was bound over.
Excitement at Winton ran rather
high for some time and lynching
was feared it being claimed that
only a leader being wanted to bring
matters to climax. The prisoner
was brought to the Ely jail for safe
keeping. The occurances of year
ago is still fresh in the minds of
the people. At that time the young
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Patka disap-
peared one afternoon and not a
trace of him has since been discov-
cred. In consequence of this, it
bodies i'll for strangers found getting
too intimate with children. The
opinion seems to prevail that the
Patka boy was made away with.

Reported Drowned

James Gaffney, river driver who
has been employed at the upper end
of Eastwood Lake, is supposed to
be drowned. A party coming from
there reports that Gaffney left the
camps at the upper end of the lake
about June 26 bound for the hospi-
tai at Winton. His canoe was
found bottom side up and consider
abs smashed on the Canadian shore
and no trace of the man has been
seen since. He was As years of
age and presumed to have relatives
in Michigan.
We give this story as told to us
by the party who arrived from there
in the hopes that some search will
be made for the remains or for the
man if he should be wandering
about in the Canadian forest.

A FiascO

The glove contest advertised for
the Opera House Saturday evening
between Curley Ulrich of Superior
and Walter Whitehead of Duluth,
turned out to be six-round love
feast with a guarantee OF no hard
hitting. The contest was advertis-
ed for after the show and began at
about O'Clock after everyone had
become tired out and in no condi-
ton to stay much longer. In con-
sequence of the smallness of the
crowd, no great efforts were put
forth to do anything more than to
carry off the gate receipts, amount
ing to about 800.
AS a preliminary to the main
fake, Bert Bailey, of Ely, and
Pug Kelly of Montana, went on
for round after which Bailey re-
fused to stay longer. Without a
doubt, the contest Saturday night
was one of the biggest fiascos ever
pulled off here. The beauty of the
whole affair seems to be that the
principals were choked off with
sandwich money while the promo
ter of the bout had enough to eat
pie.

Hodge and Cox, and the Smuk
boys sawmill groups were voted
the best in the parade and received
fair prizes. Two hundred others
in their grotesque makeups all re-
ceived small prizes of 25ct each.
The larger part of the parade was
composed of children and the small
prize helped out on their expendi-
lures.
1t would be encroaching on good
nature to give in detail the program
of sports, races, etc., and the win
ners of the various events. Ed.
John Thomas was the winner in
the 200 yard dash for men in "a
seconds; Byron Carlson, second; w.
Sexton, third and Frank Pertula,
fourth. The 100 yard dash was
also won by Thomas; Carlson Sc
cured second and John Kinsman
third. The watches showed 10A
seconds for this race. The boys
100 yard dash was won by Emmett
Coffey with Albert McMahan a
close second.
Races for old and young squaws,
wheelbarrow, potato, three-legged
and other races made up share of
the program. Innumerable races
for children were run and some
thing like SIS was distributed
among the kids" in small prizes
ranging from 5 to 25cts. Every
child who entered was given a prize
regardless of the size of the little
one. This feature of the celebra
ton was commendable one and
met with popular favor.
The hose cart race was an excit-
ing feature of the evenings sports.
Teams consisting of the married
men of the Department and the
single men captained by their re-
spective champions made the runs
in "a and 80 sec onds, the married
men winning.

evening a boxing match at the hall
occupied the time, mention of which

Altogether this was one of the
best celebrations had here and to
Mayor Murphy and the various
committees in charge of the cele-
bration is the credit due. Nothing
occurred to mar the pleasures of
the day and the lookup was empty
the following morning.

Time.
Local People Also Were Somewhat Pleased
with Festivities.
ELEGANT BALL GAME
Fourth of July Celebration Was tbs Finest
Ever in Ely.

By far the finest celebration OF
the National birthday Ely has had
in years was held here Saturday, in
fact the hilarity and merry making
began Friday night and lasted TN
til Sunday night.
Visitors from Tower, Soudan and
the Mesaba range towns to the
number of nearly 200 arrived Fri
day evening and Saturday morning
our neighbors from Winton and
Fall Lake came over about 800
strong to enjoy the hospitality and
program prepared by the liberal
citizens of Ely. That they enjoy
ed it goes without saying and all
left town vowing it the best cele-
bration they had seen in years.
The city had put on its gala at
tire for the occasion. Every street
and avenue had trees placed at in
tervals of about 10 feet. An enor-
nous amount of trees were required
for this decoration. Every business
house in the city was profusely de-
corated with bunting. The city
hall showed a particularly fine
front.
The roaring of guns at daylight
and the hosting of the flag to the
inspiring strains of the Star Spang
led Banner" brought out the popu-
lace bright and early At 9 o 'eieS-k
when the procession was scheduled
to start, the streets were crowded
with people bent on a day of enjoy
ment.
The parade of the Calithumpians
at 9 o'clock was a feature long to
be remembered. The line of gro
tesque makeups covered two blocks
and headed by the City and the
High School Bands paraded the
streets. The line was composed of
characters representing all nations,
creeds and things. The Merry
Widow idea predominated. The
