A Happy Birthday Party.

1t has been a long time since the wee
have had a happier time than was
their Friday afternoon, when SO great
a company gathered at the Gillespie
home on Fertilization street, as invited
guests Of Mrs. Jas. Gillespie, t. spend
the afternoon with her little protege,
Norma Mcleod. That bright day was
the little lady's fifth birthday, and ev-
erything possible had been done to
make it's celebration a JOY, the memory
of which will linger to brighten her
heart through all her life to come.
Since the "going home of little Nor
mas mother, which sorrowful event &C.
Cured some months ago, the winsome
little girl has been with her devoted
father, members Of the household of
Mr.. and Mrs. Gillespie, and it is an ev-
ident fact that they nave all become as
one family, the light and life Of which
is the little brown-eyed girl whose fifth
birthday was thus beautifully celebrat-
ed. Games beloved of the little ones,
songs they love to sing. and music to
which their babv-feet love to dance,
We're all furnished with generous hand
by the friends who sought to honor
little Norma. Because of the other
birthday which fell in that was the
unique 'toast" to the little honoree by
her guests. Gathered about the beau
tiful table, and led by Miss Idolette
Hunter, their Sunday school teacher,
the children sang the beautiful little
Birthday Greeting" waving their lit
tie hands and bending their pretty
heads before the little maid who was
perched high at the head Of the table,
that she might there do the honors for
the happy company. One Of the inter-
esting features of the afternoon was
the wonderful array Of birthday gifts
with which the little girl was remem-
bered by her friends.7Jackson News.

perty Tuesday
Fee Owners all Present at This Interesting
Event

Tuesday marked an epoch in the
history Of the Vermilion range, an
event that has been looked for
ward to since the beginning of Ely
and an event whose successful
fruition has entai1ed the expendit-
ure of mint of money. Large
amounts were spent in litigation
and considerable has been sunk in
explorations and Tuesdays event
marks the beginning of a life of
usefulness for this famous property.
On that day the first shipment,
consisting of 80 cars of SO tons
each of high grade ore were sent
out from the mine.
The fee owners, Richard Pagan,
Lon Merritt and L. G. Harris of
Duluth and Geo. ]. Lonstorf of
Milwaukee were present and wish
ed the train Godspeed. Lew, ALI,
Nap. and Harry Merritt were also
present from Duluth and in addit-
ion to Geo. A. St. Clair, the lessee
and operator of the mine, w. G..
St. Clair and Capt. Hotter, made
up the party who christened the
first car in the train Section 80"
Richard Pagan then broke a his
toric bottle of liquor over the car
and the ceremony was ended and
Section 80 formally launched as a
shipper.
In Dec. 1901 the case was argued
in the United States Supreme
Court for the fee owners by Cen

& Burdette, Washington, D. c.
and after the argument General
Burdette presented Mr.. Pagan

ercises were more than good and
surpassed anything ever attempted
there. The High School Orches-
ira assisted in the evenings enter
tainment. Eleven were promoted
from the Winton schools to the Ely
High School. Secretary T. E..
Miller of the school board made
the address at the presentation of
diplomas and his talk was good and
well received.
Wednesday evening the Eighth
Grade Promotion exercises of the
Ely schools was held at the High
School Auditorium and the large
place was filled to standing room
only" The exercises here were
also of the first class and most as
suredly appreciated. All acquitted
themselves with honors. The
High School band furnished sew
eral selections. All the papers
were we'll prepared and we'll given.
Supt. G. H. Barnes i'll we1l-word-

diplomas to fifty-four graduates
who will enter the High School

Never before was the attendance so
large and never before did grad

vantage. Only the graduates and
those taking part in the program
occupied the stage and the group

BASE BALL
Tower Gets Walloped by
WintOn Team

The Tower ball team came up
Sunday and went to Winton. As
sisted by the umpire, who seemed
to be short on the rules of the
great American game, the Winton
boys put it over the team by a
score of 9 to 4 in a well-played
game.
The majority of those who wit
messed the game say that the two
teams would have an even break
but for the coarse work of the man
that held the indicator. All en-
enjoyed the game however. Carl
son and Murray were the battery
for Tower and Rittersdorf and P.
Byers for Winton.
Next Sunday the Tower boys
will be up for a game with the Fire
Department at Athletic Park.

age of 1879 with the request that
he use it when the mine became a
shipper. The Supreme Court de-
cided the case in 1902 in favor of
the fee owners. The liquor was
used for the purpose set apart
Tuesday.
The mine has in the neighbor-
hood of 1000 tons in stock, hoist
ed In course of development.
About 400 tons are being hoisted
daily which hoist will be increased
as soon as the new machinery is in
place. The daily hoist is being
dumped in cars and shipments will
be made as fast as cars can be
loaded. The estimated output for
this season is expected to be 1OO,-
600 tons.
A commodious concrete engine
and boiler house has been built to
house the new hosting machinery,

ished by battery of boilers of 800

building has also been erected and

Section so certainly presents a
busy sight and puts one in mind of
the old time activity on the range
in the early days. The develop
ment of Section 80 to the shipping
stage means much to Ely and to
this range. The property has
been the turning point on which
was hinged much of the develop-
ment work now going on ON the

Insane Records

The records of the probate court
show that during the first four
months of this year there were 81
persons examined for insanity and
IN almost every case commitment to
the Fergus Fall asylum was orded.
During the same period of 1909
but 43 pereons were before the court
on insanity complaint and most of
them were committed, indicating
an increase of not far from 20 per
cent.
For the entire year 1908, 127
cases were considered as against
100 the previous year, showing an
increase for the year of about rs
per cent and indicating that the
figures for this year when complet-
ed may show a decrease of insanity
in the county.
The causes of mental derange-
ment found are varied, but drink,
drugs, overwork or an inherited
tendency are the prevailing reason,
with drink far in the lead.
DR.. Mary Mccoy, who has been
frequently called upon to examine
persons against whom complaint
has been made, states that with the
woman overwork is probably the
greatest cause, with the men drink,
and with the foreigners an inherit
ed tendency. In the latter case it
is frequently found that the persons
examined was formerly mentally
afflicted in the mother-country and
came here for the purpose of get
ting rid of the stigma or in the
hope of getting cured.
