Tuesdays wedding is the happy cul-
mination of an acquaintance which
began last April, when she came to
Ely to be one of the bridesmaids at
the Mobilization nuptials. Since
then she has been a frequent visitor
here, her many charming qualities
making her a welcome acquisition in
society, where she has won many
friends who are delighted that she is
to become a permanent resident of
the district.
Apropos of Tuesdays wedding, the
affair was great surprise to the
friends of both parties. for while 1t
was thought that such an alliance
was forthcoming. 1t was expected to
be of later occurrence. Hence the
formal announcement which was
made at a luncheon given by Mrs.
Jenkins on Monday, was quite unex-
peeted. Not to be entirely outdone.

promptu send-off as a public express

The demonstration accorded the

where several hundred employees of
the big plant and citizens of McGill
had assembled, was a fitting tribute
to the popularity of Mr.. Lakenan with
his employees and citizens in general,
of which he may be truly proud

Ny Dear sir.-In response to our
circular of July 25, you requested us
to send you full particulars re-
garding any underwriting plan which
was adopted to finance the new cor
poration.
The Reorganization Committee
will distribute 100000 shares of
stock, and bonds of the par value of
about $175, 900 of the New Ely Cen
tral Copper CO., which will be divided
among 2,100 stockholders, the hold
ings of large majority being less
than 100 shares each. IL the stock
were listed and could be sold for
fifty cents a share, or above, In all
probability a large number of the
small stockholders would sell their
stock. so that 1t is possible that for
s125.0O0 the control of the New Ely
Central Copper CO. could be pur-
chased by one of the powerful inter
ests in Ely.
You have noticed, perhaps. that
the financial newspapers say that
there Is to be consolidation oil the
coppermines company, joining the
New Ely Central Copper company on
the east and the Giroux on the west
which only enhances the strategic
value of the Ely Central property as
an independent concern. This Is only
an additional reason why the eontroi
of the Ely Central Copper company
should be kept intact.

new ELY CENTRAL COMPANY
ANNOUNCES REORGANIZATION

brought about the splendid success of
the Reorganization Plan by his abili-
ty and knowledge of the conditions.
He has secured the cooperation of
exceptionally able men, who are aid
ing him in every possible way to
make the Mines Development COM
pany a success, which means that the
New Ely Central property will be-
come a great mine instead of a pros
peet. We are confident that Mr.. Sell
fridge will be able to do for the de-
yelopment of the property what he
has in saving it, and that his efforts
will be successful. The depositors
who have saved the property should
become stockholders of the Mines De-
yeloping company and retain any
profits that can be made, instead of
permitting outside investors TO share
them.
The plan offered by the Mines De-
yeloping company is the best one we
could devise. A part of this plan is
the right given to stockholders, who
have so signified their desire. to sub
scribe for the stock of the develop
Ing company.
II You desire to take advantage of
this right. will you sign the enclosed
blank. printed on white paper, and
mail il to the Federal Trust company
in the envelope in which you send
your depository receipt. and the other
enclosed blanks. You will please in
dieate the number of shares which
you desire to subscribe for, with the
understanding that II the six thou
sand shares are oyersubseribed you
will receive pour proportion thereof.

TO THE DEPoSIToRS UNDER ELY
CENTRAL REORGANIZAT1ON
PLAN

TO THE DEPOSllORS UNDER ELI
CENTRAL REORGANIZATION
PLAN:
The Reorganization Committee is
advised, in view of the report from its
engineer, a copy of which was for
warded to every stoekholder. that an
expenditure of at least two hundred
thousand dollors tS200,000) would
be required in an attempt to disclose
ore bodies sufficient in size TO be
termed Commercial" and that to de-
velop and equip the property to mine
such ore bodies would require a very
large amount of money in addition.
II is the opinion of the committee,
Judging from the number and eharae-
ter of the replies received in response
to its circular of July 25, that out
side assistance must be secured.
The Mines Development company,
corporation organized under the
laws of the state of Maine, with a
capital stock of $250,000, divided
into 10000 shares of the par value
of $25 each, which has been formed
for the purpose of providing funds
for the development of the property
of the New Ely Central Copper com
many and any other properties that
may be selected, has made the foi-
lowing offer.
