Former Ladysmith Soy Killed

Kelso McNair, a former Ladysmith
boy, was fatally injured on his father
farm near Cobban Thursday afternoon,
and died Friday morning, July 9. He
fell perhaps 25 feet into we'll which
was being dug, and the windlass, used
for pulling up the dirt, fell in upon
him. Whether he tried to go down
into the we'll or just how he fell is not
known. The accident occurred while
the workmen were away. He suffered
a fracture of the skull and was injured
internally. Kelso was 13 years old.
Three sisters and two brothers besides
his parents, mourn his untimely death.
His sister, Miss Gladys, was teacher
in our public schools the past year.
DR.. w. l.. Stephenson of this city was

attendance record will be sent to the
State Superintendent.

State Normal School of Superior, will
be the leading conductor. He is one
of the most enthusiastic institute con-
ductors in the state and is favorably
known in this county as a lecturer.
He will give several lectures to the IN
stitute and one for the public on Thurs
day evening, August 10.
Prin. r. H. Burns, of the Rusk
County Training School, has had ex-
perience in conducting Institutes for a
number of years and is ranked among
the strong men on the institute list.
Besides his regular work on the pro-
gram, he will give several lectures to
the teachers at the institute.
Mr.. F. D. Otis, of Madison, has had
a number of years experience as prin-
cipal of schools, and is able to do
special work in agriculture. He will

two solid lines extending the length of
the hall. Following the ceremony Mr..
Burns expressed his pleasure in the
interest taken in the lodge in which he
is SO much interested and extended a

MORE COPPER
EXCITEMENT
Rich Deposit OF Different Sort Dis
covered North OF this City on
T. r. Armstrong's Land

Two Ladysmith business men, whom
business or pleasure called to visit the
banks of the little Thornapple six miles
north of this city one day this week,
brought home with them specimens of
ore unquestionably rich with copper
probably rs per cent. 1t has not been
assayed yet, but there may be some
gold in it. They ascertained that the
land upon which they found the speci-
mems belonged to T. F. Armstrong of
this city. Instead of trying TO buy the
land or get an option on it pending fur
ther investigation, they went to Mr..
Armstrong and made deal with him
for 80 per cent of the net proceeds for
a given length of time.
The ore, of which they say there is
large quantity cropping out at the sur
face of the ground, is of an entirely
different nature from that discovered
six miles south of this city, and for
working which company is being or
ganized. Instead of being white rock,
it has the appearance of having been
smelted by nature in some early period
of the earth formation. The discover
ers say that the water which runs over
portion of the deposit becomes of
greenish cast, which is the color of the
spc cimens secured.
The deposit is located only shol t
distance from the new spur being built
to the northeast off the main line of
the Central north of this city, and
therefore could be very handily loaded
onto the cars should the ore prove as
rich as is anticipated. Future develop
ments are being anxiously awaited by
the friends of Mr.. Armstrong and his
lucky associates.

Divorce Counsel Appointed

Judge Parish has appointed Glenn H.
Williams of Bruce as counsel to repre-
sent the State in actions for divorce.
According to the new law requiring
such appointment, he will be expected
to make impartial investigation of both
sides of divorce case, reporting his
findings to the court.
All too many divorces have been Sc
cured by mutual consent, where there
was absolutely no real cause for separ-
alton, resulting in a general disregard
for marriage vows, and placing the
children of divorced parents at decided
disadvantage. 1t is time that the pub
lie was interested in divorce cases more
