WILL PLAY ABROAD.
Miss May Sutton Probably Will Tour
Europe This Winter.

New York, Nov According TO
reports from Monte Carlo. Miss May
Sutton, the ex-American and English
champion, is to visit the Riviera this
winter ana play in mostly all the big
tournaments there. The report has IL
that the California girl will be tho
guest Of Mrs. A. Bostwick on her
yacht. It is not yet known that Miss
Sutton will have another knock for
the English championship, but 1t is
not very unlikely. Managers OF the
tournaments at Nice and Monte Carlo
think they will be able TO induce Mrs
Lambert Chambers the English cham
pion, to play at few of the Riviera
affairs, and they are already anticipat-
ing her meeting with Miss Sutton.
Then there is some talk of Mr.. Bost-
wick taking along one Of the crack
men players, but there is no mention
Of who it Is.
England, France and Germany are
wishing that America will win back
the Davis cup and the two latter
countries are more than anxious about
It, as they intend TO be contenders next
year. There Is no doubt about the in
tentions of the Engishmen with re-
gard TO the international, for IL any
thing they proved more anxious TO go
TO Australia than the Americans. Last
year when America could not muster
n team. the EnClishmen stood ready
TO GO. but the Australasian Tennis as
ISOLATION would give no guarantee. as
the English players who were nomin-
ated were not considered good enough
as a drawing card for the gate money
purposes. why France and Germany
are so keen on the Americans winning
Is that they think their players will
have a look i'm from now on, and II
would be very comfortable TO play
the preliminary i'm England and then
come to America for the challenge

Want COUNCIL
TO RECONSIDER
UPPER PENINSULA POULTRY AS
ISOLATION WILL RENEW RE-
QUEST FOR USE OF
TOWN HALL.

AT the regular monthly meeting of
the I.aurfum council to be held next
Tuesday evening, representatives Of
the Upper Peninsula Poultry Associa-
ton will renew the request presented
at the meeting of the council last
month and which the council turned
down, for the use of the town hall for
the first annual poultry show to be
held January IS, 10 and 20. IL is felt
that the refusal of the council to grant
permission at the last meeting, was
based on u misunderstanding and that
I'm reality there is practically no SEN
timent against holding an exhibit such
as is proposed at the town hall. Since
the meeting, il is believed that a num-
Der of the councilmen have como to a
better understanding and that permits
sion will readily be granted now.
The exhibit will be under the direc-
ton Of an experienced superintendent
and the management Of the associa-
ton will provide a special janitor dur
ing the days of the fair As all of the
birds will be in specially prepared eX-
hibition coops there can be no accum-
ulation of dirt
The directors Of the association be-
Heve that the exhibit will prove of
benefit to the town and that it will go
a long way towards stirring up inter-
est among the poultry fanciers i'm pure
bred stock. AS the show will come one
week earlier than the annual exhibit
Of the Copper Country Poultry associa-
ton at Houghton, it is certain that
there will be a large number of birds
exhibited.
The association expects to receive al
once q consignment of 200 exhibition
coops which have already been shipped
from lower Michigan and as soon as
these arrive, active preparations fol
the show will commence. The coops
are Of the latest approved variety.
The association will hold its regular
meeting at the Calumet Y NJ. c. a. one
week from tomorrow evening. and 1t Is
probable that at this time, further
plans will be considered.

GOOD FOOTBALL
FOR SATURDAY
CHICAGO AND MINNESOTA MEET
IN WEST-HARVARD AND
PRINCETON CLASH IN
THE EAST.

With the football season of 1911
more than half completed, there re-
main three teams in the running for
the eastern championship, Harvard,
Yale and Princeton and the same num-
Der are still contenders for the confer
ence title in the west, viz.-Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Chicago. At the pres
teams still left in the title chase will
finish about i'm the order above named.
Harvard has shown up exceptionally
well thus far this year and its defeat
of Brown on Saturday by a wide mar
gin gives the Crimson a slight lead for
honors right now, as Brown whipped
Pennsy. Yale was given a setback by
it's defeat at West Point a week ago,
but as the bulldog spirit invariably
asserts itself at the last moment, the
Sons Of E,li may still get back into
the running and beat their oldtime
rivals. Princeton, too, is showing up
strong this fail and must be consid-
cred contenders.
In the middle west, Michigan of
course cannot be dopcd as a contend
er for the big eight title as the VOL
verines do not play the conference
teams. But Yosts team is as strong
rs I'm by-gone years and is unquestion-
ably as fast as any Of the conference
teams despite the fact that the VOL
verines made a poor showing against
Vanderbilt Saturday
The three-Cornered battle between
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Chicago
looks like one OF olden times. The Co
piers are coming strong right now and
will be a tough nut To crack. Stagg' :
Maroons beat Illinois and Purdue but
the Maroons may not class with the
Gophers and Badgers by the time they
meet Wisconsin, by its Overwhelming
defeat over Northwestern on Saturday,
has jumped into the front ranks and
the Badgers must be considered i'm the
fight this year
At any rate one team will be elm
mated in both the east and west on
Saturday for Harvard and Princeton
will get together in the east and Chi
cago and Minnesota in the west. In
the estimation of many. these will be
the crucial games Of the season.

A FUTURE MILLIONAIRE.

Assemblyman Brennan, author of
the Brennan cold storage law, was
talking i'm Albany about a dealer who
objected to the labelling of cold stor-
age products.
"This mans objection to the words
cold storage on cold storage goods, "
said Mr. Brennan, recall vividly to
my mind an Ithaca boy.
"The boy had gone in for chicken
raising and had done well. He pos
sessed an egg dating stamp. You
could always tell, when YOU bought
an egg from him, whether it would be
best to eat It soft boiled or to use II
as political missile.
"But the football season came on;
eggs got high and scarce. and the boy
began TO waver i'm his virtue.
And one day, while he was still
wavcring, he found under a hedge a
whole nostful Of eggs lie took them
home and showed them to his mother
81 don't know what to date them,
he said doubtfully.
"'Well. break one said his mother
That will give you some idea of their
date
so the DO broke one of the eggs
and the odor was as though a sewer
| had burst
Lets see said his mother. This
is Nov. 10. Date them Nov. 10, 1910.
"But the boy as he got out his egg
dating machine, answered.:
"'No; they might have been lait
in 1909 or even in 1908. I'll just dat,
them Nov. 10. without the year. Ther
I'll be misleading nobody"

Lauriium Department

Treasurer Jearling is not called upon
TO return the roll to the county treas
urer for a few weeks it is expected
the roll will be still further reduced.
The total tax collections last month
amuonted to $10550 and the water tax
and meter collections made by Martin
Prisk, Jr., secretary of the water
board amount to $2,22S additional OF
this amount $500 was for water meters,
leaving the outstanding amount due
for meters about $4,000 some of which
is for meters installed this year for
which the whole amount is not col
lectable
Special efforts will be made by Mr..
Prisk to reduce the amount still fur
, Their, however, and it is probable that
after the next council meeting, the
water will be shut off from those
whose meter accounts are delinquent.
The water will not be turned on again
until payment in full has been made,
and until an extra fee for shutting off
and turning on the water has been
paid, so it behooves those who still owe
the village money for their meters to
make payment at once.
Some Of the real and personal taxes
which are included among the delin-
quents this year are for widows and
others who are unable to pay and
whose taxes have been refunded IN
other years This is no longer posi-
BILE however, and it is likely that ben
left dancing party will be arranged un-
der municipal auspices, in an enor
to raise this amount.

FILLING YALE TANK.
Forty Wells Required to Provide Suf-
ficient Water.


Forty odd wells supply the swim
ming tank at the Yale gymnasium. Few
persons realize what big job it is to
fill the mosaic set pool back of the
gymnasium and the care necessary in
regulating the flow of water.
The tank holds when filed. just $50,
600 gallons Of water, and after the
pumps start sucking the water out of
the ground back of the building II
takes two days and two nights TO start
the water running at the overflow
The wells which furnish the water
lie near the old baseball cage. There
are forty-two of them driven i'm a
small area TO n depth of 40 to As feet
There were only half this number ur
To last year, when It was found nee
essary TO drive additional ones. Deep
err ones are TO be driven next summer
The pipes are all siamesed onto
main pipe or inches i'm diameter
which leads directly into the cellar ol
the gymnasium and is connected TO a
powerful steam-driven double pump
This raises the water up To the tank
II Is impossible TO draw the water
very fast on account of the large
amount or g,1I VIZ y &C. evol-ed In
from the wells.
II mas been found by the Yale au-
thorities that when such large num-
her OF wells are driven in n small area
continual pumping pulls away the
sand at the bottom OF the pipe and
leaves a sort of pocket. Extra heavy
pumping on all the pipes at once has
caused these pockets to enlarge and

The Local Option group of five
claims, consisting Of the Local
Option Nos, 1 and 2, the Blue
Boy Nos. 1, 2 and 8; owned by
York and King, and situated at
the mouth of Rabbit creek in the
Ten Mile district, are to be ex-
tensively developed this summer.
Last winter a bond was given
on the claims and small pay
ment made to hold the option
until the first of May, when the
second payment was made, and
the company holding the bond
were given possession, and will
start work Immediately. The
company's representative, M. L.
Derrig who made the deal, will
have charge of the work.
The Local Option group came
into prominence last spring by
the finding of a lode "a ft. wide
that carried good values and
panned the full width. This was

The university can give a broad

The Mining Engineer.

In an article entitled 'The
Valuation of Mining Properties"
published in the Mining Science,
is the following concerning the
qualifications of a mining engi-
neer:
The practice of mining engi-
neering being so large a mixture
of business, it follows that the
whole of the training of this pro-
fession cannot be had in schools
and universities. The CONNER
cial and execution side Of the
work cannot be taught. 1t must
be absorbed by actual particpa-
tion in the Industry. Nor is it
impossible to use too great emil
nence in the profession without
university training, as witness
