pairs TO her machinery and boiler were
made and that she is in as good con-
dition today as when she was first
placed i'm commission here
As the engine stands in it's place in
the fire hall the first thing that at
tracts the onlooker's attention is the
splendid work of the painter who APP

machine. All parts of the engine that
are painted show that the hand that
did that part of the work belongs to a
master Of the craft.

SEVEN BOYS PLEAD GUILTY
TO THE STEALING OF BRASS
Are Arraigned in Justice Weyck-
er's Court at Ahmeek
Last Evening.
JUDGE SUSPENDS SENTENCE

Seven boys were brought before Jus
tice Weycker at Ahmeek last evening,
charged with stealing brass from the
Ahmeek Mining company. Special Of
ficer August Beck has been trying for
some time to apprehend the perpetra-
tors of thefts of brass and other met
ais that have extended over a period
OF three years. Yesterday Emil Leh-
toneimi and William Gunari were
caught I'm the act IL is said Gunari
eluded the officers. but Lehtoneimi was
brought to the village lock-up. The
five other accused boys are George
Forster, Chas. Forster, John Forster,
Carl Antonen and John Reisonen. The
boys. who are about 16 years of age,
pleaded guilty and were given severe
lectures by Judge Weycker and Mr..
Beck. They were then released upon
promise of good behavior. The boys
were given over TO their parents and
an eye will be kept on them in the flu
ture.
1t is stated by the officers that brass
has been taken from the buildings, pull
legs and machinery and disposed of to
junk dealers. Efforts are being made
To locate these dealers and bring them
To justice as they are considered more
to blame than the boys.
Andrew c. Brownlee was the COM
plainant in an assault and battery
case against VIM. Ricard last evening.
Ricard pleaded not guilty and the case
win come up before Justice Weycker
some time next week.

FlREMEN PLAN 500 TRIP.
Laurium Department Will Probably
Make Trip in a Body.


At the next regular meeting of the
members of the Laurium fire depart
ment TO be held on the second Tues
day in June, plans will be formulated
for the trip of the Laurium firemen TO
the 500, TO attend the tournament of
the Upper Peninsula association. Ac-
cording 10 the informal plans which
have been made the entire department
will make the trip but it is not likely
that running team will be organized
TO participate in the tournament games.
There is a small balance I'm the
treasury of the Laurium department
from the funds secured for the tour
nament held last year. 1t is not be-
lieved, however, that this fund will be
sufficient to take the members to the
500 and it is likely that contributions
will be requested for this purpose. A
small appropriation from the Laurium
council may also he requested.
