Matter Of Opening Traffic With
Swedetown District to be
Taken Up.
COUNCIL WILL MEET TUESDAY

At the next meeting of the Laurium
village council, which is to be held
next Tuesday evening a lengthy ses-
sion is anticipated. one Of the most
important matters to be considered is
the proposed extension of some OF the
village streets to the suburban dis
tricts, particularly in the Swedetown
district. This is being urged by resi-
dents living in that section, and by
Laurium business men i'm general. 1t
is claimed that the Improvement in
question would divert business into
channels where it rightly belongs.
While no actual work can be done
this winter, still the matter will be
discussed, and possibly some action ta-
ken leading to IA renewal Of the ques-
ton early in the spring.
At the coming meeting the lighting

ly well lighted, there being no dark
corners to complain of. II will be re-
membered that this question was
brought up ut the last council meet
ing, with the result that the street and
lighting committee was instructed to
take the matter up with the Houghton
County Electric Lighting company.
with power to act. This was accord
ingly done, with the result that no
complaints are now being made as to
street Nominations i'm any part of the
town.
Treasurer Baggiore will have a re-
port to make. 1t will not be the most
natterlng. it is expected, the treasurer
having much to contend with i'm the
collection of taxes. Many of the resi-
dents have been called upon to foot
extra taxes on account of the hum
dreds Of feet of concrete sidewalks that
have been built. This has worked
against the collection of some of the
real and personal taxes.

PINOCHLE PLAYERS TIED.
Results Of Last Nights Play in Mo-
hawk Firemen's Tourney.

Last nights games in the Mohawk
pinochle tournament completed fifty
for most Of the members in the club,
although there are quite a number who
have played either thirty or forty
games. OF those who have played the
required amount two are tied for first
place with a percentage of 600 with
thirty games won and twenty lost. 1t
is practically certain that these mem
bcrs will retain places at the head of
the column. Any member of the club
will be entitled to participate in the
games this evening only no games will
be scored to the credit Of any member
who has already completed the series
OF forty, tonights play being simply an
extra night for the delinquent mem
bcrs.
At the conclusion of play this even
ing the person with the largest perccn-
tage will carry away the prize offered
for the best individual player, provided
of course there is no tie for first place.
In this case the tie will probably have
to be broken in a two-handed game.
A prize has not as yet been selected
but win be after tonight and presented
to the winner next Tuesday evening
when the leaders play off i'm the finals
to determine championship team OF
four.
on Tuesday and Thursday nights of
next week will be open nights. Here
toforc ii was necessary for person to
become a member of the club TO play in
the series, and then play pinoChle only.
on these two nights anyone will be en-
titled to play after paying admission,
and they may play either pinochle or
pedro.
After next weeks play the fire de-
partment will arrange for a series to
last over the winter months. The
same rules will apply as have applied
in this series only that persons may
become members as pedro players or
pinochle players. 1t Is thought that i'm
this manner great many more people
will take advantage Of place to spend
one evening a week during the long
winter months, as a great many have
already asked the fremcn to make this
owing to the fact that they
were unable to play pinochle.
AS the pnochle series is drawing
near the end the interested parties
are anxiously awaiting to hear from
