Dave Leyson, w. A. Woods and
Mr.. Dunkle, all of the staff quarters,
composed the party who brought
home the largest bag of ducks the
opening day of the season, they hav-
ing 80, 26 mallards and 4 teals. This
is the banner shoot.

Miss Elizabeth Hanson, of Salt
Lake City, and II. B. Brunnett, of
Somerset, KY, we're united in mar
riage at the home of the bride in
Salt Lake City Wednesday, Sept. Is.
Mr.. Brunnet has been employed at
the concentration for some time and
has many friends in McGill. The
bride is on e of Salt Lake City's

wishes for the future. They are at

An elaborate duck dinner was
served at the staff quarters last Fri
day evening, the banqueters being
Dave Leyson, w. A. e. Woods, F. C.
Jaccard, Al Henning, w. e. Dunkle,
A. e. Van Eman, DR.. p. F. Abbott,
A. L. Harris, Billy Byden, Jas. Bow
err and NJ. /. Meredith. The repast
was the scene of much merriment
and enjoyment. Nothing but the
best of things known to the culinary
art and the choicest of are old vim
tage were served. After the dinner
the evening was spent with music
and games. All had a delightful
time.
1t has been widely rumored
around camp the past week that
some duck hunters had killed a COW
and wounded a calf on the McGi1l
ranch; also that the management
had forbidden trespassing. This is
an error. No truth in either rumor.
How such stories get started Copper
Ore is at a loss to understand. But
within the past few days some one
beyond a doubt did maliciously
shoot a young colt with a rife. The
animal belonged to the McGill ranch,
the evidence is very clear. This is
the third horse shot this summer. 1T
any one in the camp imagines this is
sport they better take a little more
time for reflection, because they will
surely get within the grip Of the
law, and it is a serious offence.
The McGill school district is four
miles square, with McGill practically
in the center. Consequently, Shelter
vile is in this district. This promis-
ing town is already insisting upon a
public school which under the law
they are entitled to, but the directors
of the McGill schools have decided
that it would be much cheaper and
of much more benefit to the scholars
themselves to attend the McGill
| schools, which are of a very high
order, than to attempt to organize a
| school at Smelterville. They are
therefore willing and propose to pay
the hack fare of all children living
in Smelterville who wish to attend
school in McGill.
We heartily commend this plan and
feel sure the results will be much
more gratifying to the parents at the
close of the school term.
Arrangements will be made with
the proper management to have the
bus run On a schedule that will be
as convenient as possible for the
children.
