SCHOOLS INNING
The Closing Exercises Have
the Boards Now

Beginning with the class play
tonight and ending with the annual
picnic Friday next, the pupils of
the Ely Schools present a week of
solid entertainment for patrons
besides furnishing an idea of their
individual accomplishments during
the past year.
1t can be safely said that this
year marks the epoch in the ac-
complishments of the Ely schools,
to date. While it must be said
that the progress made is only in
conformity with the existing con-
ditions of progressiveness, it can
also be said that the advancement
has been more noticeable here
during the past year than hereto
fore. This is due entirely to the
excellent corps of instructors main
tanned and the cooperation of the
school board of District No. II,
who have spared nothing to put

SEASON OPENED
First Ball Game Sunday
Between Ely and Tower

The ball season was formally
opened Sunday when the Tower
boys came up to try conclusions
with the Keen Kutter" team of
this city. A large crowd were IN
attendance, Mayor Knutson open
ing the season by throwing the
first ball over the plate. To dispell
any ambitions as a twirler the
genial mayor may have, we will
state right here that Knutson is
some bum" pitcher. Be that as
it may. he started something that
netted Ely the first game of the
season.
Both teams did some fair playing.
Scherer, Rice and Skala held the
puints for Ely and Wagner, Carlson
and Norden composed the Tower
battery. All the pitchers were
freely hit. Cox and Purdy were
the umpires and their work gave
satisfaction. The score at the end
of the nine innings stood to in
favor of Ely. The lineup of the
Ely team was follows:
Scherer and Rice, pitchers Jack
Skala. Catcher, w. Walker, first
b., 'Lish Labeau, second b., John
Gianotti, third b., Matt Martin
S s., A. Bouska, /. f., E. Erickson
c. f., Walter Roberts, r. f.
Tuesday the team was to hav,
gone to Tower but the rain pre-
vented and the game was called of
from Tower just before the trair
was to leave. A game will b.
played later.
Il Next Sunday the Elba team viii
be here. The Elba boys are in th
Eastern Mesaba league.

Our educational institutions in the
front rank of like institutions in the
state.
Strangers who visited the ex-
hibits last week were amazed at
the showings made and expressed
themselves as being astonished over
the displays. Coming from large
cities, as some of them did, they
had never witnessed such displays
showing the efficiency of the
methods of education as applied in
this district. One man was heard
to remark that is was with re-
luctance he went to the exhibit,
thinking he would see down state
country school layout devoid of
more than strictly local interest.
He further said that it was with re-
luctance he left the showing as the
time was altogether too short to
permit him to grasp the full under
standing of a large city exhibit
in country school," showing
culture and refinement, in strict
contrast to the outside conditions
as applied to the trip between Du-
luth and Ely.
Last Friday evening the class
The Ely miner., 1911-06-02

party was given in the High School
Auditorium and a large crowd were
present to witness the graduates
disport themselves on the eve of
their leaving the High School.
Music was furnished by Knutson' S
Orchestra and dancing was the
order of the evening.
Tonight the Class Play will be
on at the Auditorium and it will be
worth going to see. Arrangements
have been made for the older
people, the children having been
present at the dress rehearsal last
evening.

equipment and facilities are neces-
sary that are not called for else
where. Not only has the equipment
of ore-carrying railroads been
brought to the highest point of
efficiency, but the storage and dock
facilities as we'll. All has required
vast sums of money, but it is fully
warranted by the increase in ore
hauling capacity and efficiency.
The Ely miner., 1911-06-02
Are Progressive

Progress is the watchword with
the iron mining companies of the
Lake Superior region, and with
them the orehauling railroads are
keeping pace in their methods and
equipments. The cost of trans
portation is steadily being reduced
by better grades, cars and more
powerful locomotives, heavier rails,
easier curves, larger while constant
improvements are being made in
the construction of the shipping
| piers. The railroads now are
gradually installing a new type of
ore car, the distinctive feature of
which is its rapidity of dumping.
Steel practically replaced wood in
the construction of the cars some
years ago, but it is only within a
comparatively recent time that any
improvements have been made, the
object of which was to facilitate the
work of unloading the contents.
Tests made, showed that the
contents of this particular make of
car could be discharged in less than
a minute on the average, as COM
pared with from S to 10 minutes
with the old style car. The great
saving in time and labor is obvious.
The cars can be dumped either by
hand or by the use of compressed
air, as desired, and each has a
capacity of so tons. Another
feature resulting in considerable
saving is that for ordinary ore no
men are required on top of the cars
when unloading is in progress.
Except in the case of very sticky
ore, all the ore drops out of the car
when the bottom is opened, with
out any assistance from the dock
workers. With the old type of car
from 6 to 20 men are employed on
top of trains to poke the ore down
into the pockets of the dock.
Nowhere in the world is iron
mining carried on so gigantic a
scale as on the various iron ranges
in the Lake Superior region. To
handle the enormous tonnage ex-
peditiously and with economy,

BIG CROWD
IS PLEASED
BY Home Talent Play
Stage Effects We're
Striking

The presentation of @The Life Of
Martin Luther or the Story Of the
Reformation" pleased a large audi
ence at Convention hall last night,
and It was entertaining to the listen
er. Beautiful spectacular scenes rep
resenting periods in the life Of Luth-
er were connected by steroptical
views. and Miss S. Ethel Brown Of
Washington, D. c., told the story in
short lectures between the scenes.
Monastery and convent scenes with
ucnks, choirmen. nuns and novices
in costume were very impressive, and
the uniforms Of the court officials,
guards, pages, priests and knights,
which were in keeping with the time
ot the Reformation made the stage ef-
fects striking.
The story centered around the
'pict at Worms" scene, where Charles
Stoddard.. at his best as Martin Luth-
er, was on trial before Emperor,
Charles v, whose part was taken by
l.. p. Stone. With guards and elect
.crs and other attendants and members
of the emperor's official family pre-
cent. the throne room scene was a
most attractive one. Miss McClintic
filled the role of an abbess as few
could have done, it being the leading
part among the ladies'. Solo parts
We're well rendered by Miss Anna Hill
Miss Henrietta Pyle and Miss Eliza
beth Butler, costumed as novices.
The play will be given again tonight
at Convention hall, and is worthy Of
a packed house.
