PIONEER FIRE
Conf|agration at "A Shaft Of
Pioneer Ends Luckily

Fire of unknown origin broke
out at $50 Monday morning in the
motor barn of "a" shaft at the
Pioneer mine. The alarm sounded
brought out both the mine and city
departments who put in several
strenuous hours before the fire was
extinguished.
AS soon as possible after the up
per works of the shaft house were
discovered burning, the mouth of
the shaft was covered to preclude
the possibility of the fire communi-
eating with the mine. Several
lines of hose were raised into the
burning structure and several
streams of water soon had the fire
under control. The members of
the crew of the steel workers who
had been employed at the shaft
house making alterations and erect
ing new work, were an invaluable
asset to the fire fighting forces and
they did valiant work.
The shaft house is of steel, lined
with plank and coated with cor
rugated steel. The fire had secur-
ed firm foothold in the motor
barn and the wooden lining. New
lining and sheeting will be neces-
SarV. None of the iro,, yuort yuoo
injured to any marked extent.
Work was resumed in the shaft the
following day.
Superintendent Chas. Trezona
estimates the damage at $4,000
fully covered by insurance. Had
the fire gotten into the mine the
damages would have been enor-
nous.

The following story. ofthe drown
ing of Emmet Coffey, son of Mr..
and Mrs. M. J. Coffey of this city,
was given on the Itasca News pub
lished at Coleraine last week. The
News said:
Emmet Coffey was drowned in
Trout Lake on Wednesday evening
July 80, at about $50 Pm. His
body yet lies in the lake at depth
of 135 feet.
The drowning occurred off the
point known as the Bogalusa point
and about three hundred feet from
shore. The water is deep at this
place and it is hardly probable
that the body will be recovered as
the lake does not give up its dead.

MINING MATTERS

The large profits derived from
mining may be traced to all COM
munities great and small through
out theworld. They may be found
III the construction of giant Office
buildings, palatial dwellings. rail-
roads, banks and enterprises of var
ious natures. Mining profits have
builded towns and cities and have
made thousands of people independ-
ent or very wealthy.
The profits from copper mining
III the Northern Peninsula of Mich
igan are of importance to a great
city like Boston, and to many other
places, aside from copper country
towns. The big profits of mines in
Arizona are of Importance to Du-
luth and other Lake Superior towns,
as well as to San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Boston and other large
communities. The future of cop
per and iron ores is brighter now
than at any time in the past. The
tremendous demand for copper at
the present time will look small as
compared to the demands of the fu-
ture years. An Eastern paper
says that steam locomotive will be
tradition in the not distant flu
ture, atd that electricity will be the
motive power in the generations
to come. That means electrical
tion to an extent calculated to be-
wilder anybody that tries to CON-
prehend it. And all that means
copper metal and more copper
metal. There is none too much
iron ore of commercial grades in
the country and good properties
will always be in demand at good
prices.
Iron and copper are the great
mineral twins of industry and de-
velopment in this age, and from
all indications will develop iE i'm
portance together. .-Skilling's News

That's the kind of a friend worth hav-

Sammy Jay of how inc Billy Possum
had been caught than he forgot all about
how he had gotten into trouble himself
the last time he visited Farmer Brown $
dooryard. Yes. sir. he forgot all about
that. Inc Billy was in trouble and that
was enough to make Jimmy Skunk for
get about his own troubles.
Jimmy asked Sammy Jay all kinds of
questions, but Sammy couldn't tell him
much, because, you know. Sammy didn' I
know a great deal about how inc Billy
had been caught All he knew was that
inc Billy was a prisoner in a wire-cov-

what kind of a trap he was caught in
and where it was set. Tell him I'm COM

want to be caught, too. Now, hurry and
let me know what he says, said Jimmy.
SO Sammy Jay flew back to Farmer

just what Jimmy Skunk had told him to.

piled:
