doubt prove one of the most enjoya-
BILE of the season will be given next
Tuesday evening at Good Times hall
by the members of the choir of St.
Bartholomew church. A number
of the best local talent are to take
part.
For several weeks rehearsals have
been under way and all members of
the company who are to take part
are letter perfect in the songs and
instrumental selections they will rem
der.
One especial feature of the affair
will be the playing of Master John
Putnam, the 13 year old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Graham F. Putnam, who
despite his youth has quite repu-
tation in musical circles, both in Ely
and In Salt Lake City. At the latter
place his services at concerts were
in constant demand during the time
he was there.
The following persons will render
vocal solos: Miss Rowe, Mrs. Nevin,
Mr.. Shell, Mr.. Anand, Miss Miller,
Mrs. Wallace, Miss Fornia, Mrs. Stew
ems. A female quartette and a trio
will be. heard. Mr.. Center, Mrs. Pol

Eagles To Be Hosts
At A Smoker

The Eagles lodge of Ely is. pre-
pairing to hold a public smoker next
Tuesday evening at the lodge room
in Graham hall. The event promises
to be an enjoyable one. An elabo-
rate program is being prepared.
During the early evening sparring
matches and other athletic events
are scheduled. Participants will be
announced later. A banquet at which
toasts will be given and responded
to will follow.
The main event of the evening will
be a rafting badger fight. Several
days since the lodge was presented
with a large and ferocious animal,
caught in the hills, and this is to be
pitted against an equally invincible
bulldog. Interest in this event is
active, bets already having begun
to go up on the result of the mill.
At present the badger, on account
of his large size and ferocious as
pect, is the favorite in the betting at
odds of to / . 1t is understood that
dog money is coming out SO freely,
however, that the badger hackers
are inclined to hedge and the odds
are therefore expected to drop to
even money before the event comes
off.
Each Eagle has been urged to at
tend the entertainment and to bring
friend with him, and large crowd
is therefore assured.

To EIectrify All
Hill System
Very Soon


TACOMA, Feb. 26.-By orders oi
James j. Hill, the Great Northern
railway will be the first of the trans
continental railroads to operate its
mountain divisions by electricity, By
August l it is intended to operate
all trains by electricity across the
Cascade mountains from Leaven-
worth, which is situated a little west
of Columbia river, to Skykomish on
the western slope of the mountains.
Danger of suffocating engine and
train crews in the Cascade tunnel
will thereby be avoided.
A water power plant to generate
10, 900 horse power Is being installed
by the Great Northern in Tumwater
canyon on the eastern side of the
Cascades. A contract to furnish
nearly two miles OF stave pipe feet
6 inches in diameter has been award
ed to the Pacific Coast Pipe company.
Water will be taken from Wenatchee
river at a point six miles above
Leavenworth, giving head of 16S
feet at the end of the pipe line.
A million and a half of lumber
and nearly 100000 pounds of steel
bands will be used in constructing
the pipe. A railroad has been built
up Wenatchee river canyon for de-
livery of the material. The water
will he carried across the river in
a steel pipe on steel trestle.

Greeks Story Had
a FIinnsy Look
Court Declined to Swallow Explana-
ton and Assessed Fine.

After telling AN exceedingly queer
story about the stealing of several
sacks of grain from grain camp
near McGill, Jim Hotu, a Greek, was
yesterday fined $40 and costs for
petit larceny, the whole amounting
to more than $50.
Hotu declared that he had not
been guilty of stealing the grain
technically, as he was simply made
cats paw by another mas who was
with him at the time This man,
whose name he refused to tell. he
alleged had come to him and asked
him to drive with him to place
where he had several sacks of wheat.
Hotu claims that he agreed to do
this and drove the wagon for him.
On arriving opposite the grain
tent he claims the other man alight-
ed and Sitting the canvas, brought
out sack, placing 1t in the vehicle.
just at this time someone fired a
shot at them and he. being taken by
surprise, he claims, decided that
even had his friend purchased the
grain and was simply taking 1t home,
as he claimed, it was not healthy
neighborhood to stay in. He there
fore whipped up and drove off while
his friend hastily got into the wagon.
His story did not appear altogether
reasonable to Justice Cartwright and
the fine was therefore imposed.

State Police Draw ON
This District
For Men

The first local move in organiza-
tion OF the state police force has been
made and this morning George w.
Jackson will leave for Carson to be
sworn in for duty in the Robinson
district. Sam Davis, former deputy
constable, will accompany him, go
ing to the capital city to enroll. Both
will receive 500 month and ex-
penses.
For several days Attorney C. S.
Reeves has been working on the
proposition, having been requested
by the officers at the head OF the
organization to give assistance. For
this work Mr. Reeves is especially
adapted, having been for number
of years connected with the Texas
ranger service, as we'll as serving in
the United States army through two
campaigns.
Both of the men chosen are well
suited for the positions they will oc-
cupy, having had experience as Of
ficers and having reputation FOR
nerve and daring. Just how many
of the state force will be assigned
to this section has not been deter
mined, but it is thought that there
will be three men, two at McGill for
the present and one in Ely.
For the present both the local
men will Nbe stationed at Goldheld

DECISION MAY
SOON Be HAD
ON DEPOT
Belief is That Railroad
Commission Will Give
Opinion This Week

General Manager Cannon of the
Nevada Northern leaves this morning
for Carson City on railroad business
the exact nature of which has not
been given out. The presumption Is
that it will have to do principally
with matters which have been before
the railroad commissioners for some
time and In connection with which
they have asked conferences on sew
oral occasions during the last few
months with the officials of railroads
operating In the state. At these con-
ferences rates have been discussed
with result of voluntary reductions
being made by the roads coming and
with further result in reaching bet
ter understandings.
Aside from rate matters, however,
1t Is possible that while Mr.. Cannon
Is at Carson City the railroad CON-
mission will have under considera-
tion and make decision in the freight
depot case in which the Nevada
Northern is defendant and the city
of Ely plaintiff. The hearing in this
case occurred in Ely in November,
since which time briefs have been
filed with the commission by the at
torneys appearing in the case. The
testimony and the briefs both being
necessarily of much length, there
has been great deal of time re-
quired by the commission to get to
point enabling decision While it has
not been given out that this decision
is now near ready and thst it will
probably come during the week,
there are reasons for believing that
such is the case.

Land Legislation Is
Before Congress

WASHINGTON Feb. 24-The
bill providing fol- government control
Of vacant public grazing lands. which
was adopted by the recent livestock
convention at Denver, was introduced
in the senate today by Senator Curtis
of Kansas, and similar bill will be
introduced in the house tomorrow by
Representative Scott of the same
state. Advocates of land leasing leg
islation do not expect to have it en-
acted at this, session of congress
and probably will not ask for hear
ing or reports upon the question.
They assert that they wish only to
have leasing measures presented in
congress so that they may become
known to the people of the west gen.
orally and thoroughly discussed and
if possible, given such support by the
western press, livestock associations
and meetings as will insure their Sc
rious consideration at the next
cession of congress.
Meanwhile their promises to be an
influx to Washington of opponents of
all forms of government control of it's
vacant lands. Today President Fred
Gooding of Idaho and Secretary Geo.
S. Walker of Wyoming. of the Nation
al Wool Growers association, ar
rived, and delegates are expected
within the present week from Mon
tana, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and
Colorado to fight the Burkett graz
ing bill, as we'll as the one introduced
today by Curtis. Inasmuch as there
is no disposition on the part ofwest-
ern members of congress to urge the
adoption of leasing legislation, at this
session, the mission of the opponents
to such legislation is looked upon as
useless 1t is expected, however,
they will ask the agricultural COM
mittee of the senate and public land
committee of the house, before whom
grazing bills are pending, to give
them a hearing so that their protests
against all leasing legislation may be
registered.
The visiting delegation also will
appear in behalf of legislations of
compel railroads to maintain certain
speed for trains carrying livestock to
market.
