Financial Wisdom.

The savings banks have at last
admitted officially. that the United
States Postal Savings Bank, to
which they were so strongly oppos-
ed, has in no way injured their bus
ness. This is pretty good proof that
bankers do not know everything
there is about finance, and may be
woefully mistaken when their pri-
yate interests are at stake.

Gold or Iron?

Gold is the most valuable of all
metals" yor declare. Are you
sure? Gold, it is true, is the most
precious of all the metals and the
highest priced, but if we are to es-
innate the value of a thing on the
basis of its usefulness, then gold
would not be by any means the
most valuable of our mineral prod
ucts. We are told that
Iron vessels cross the ocean:
Iron engines give them motion.
Iron pipes are gas delivers;
Iron bridges span our rivers;
Iron stoves for cooking victuals;
Iron ovens, pots and kettles;
Iron horses draw our loads;
Iron rails compose our roads;
Iron anchors hold in sands:
Iron rods, and bolts and bands:
Iron houses, IRON walls;
Iron cannon, iron balls;
Iron axes, knives and chains;
Iron au4urs, saws and planes;
Iron globules in our blood,
Iron particles in food;
Iron lightning rods on spires;
Iron telegraph wires;
Iron hammers, nails and screws -
Iron in everything we use"
If you were to try to name hall
as many uses to which gold is put
you could not do it. We could dc
without gold. for silver and copper
could take its place to a considera,
BILE extent But, what could we dc
without iron? Selected.

Ards Furnace to Crosby

John I. Jones of Iron Mountain
is preparing to remove the Ards
furnace from Republic, Mich, to
Crosby.
The furnace and the ore bodies
on the Guyana range have been
taken over by the Dell Development
company, which will carry on all
operations in connection with the
new project. The company has
secured a number of fine iron
manganese properties along the
range and is negotiating for a num-
Der of Others that will be turned
over in short time.
Editor Atkinson of the Crosby
Crucible in editorially commenting
on the Jones furnace says the fol
lowing:
1t is the most natural thing in
the world that the big fellows in
the iron business should oppose the
newly-invented Jones process for
treating iron and other ores, and it
may be said, in passing, that the
big fellows are losing no opportunity
to knock the new method. The
Ards furnace process, however, is
a determined success, and it is only
a question of time until it absolutely
supercedes the old practice that the
big fellows control"

COMING IN ALL
ITS ENTIRETY
Sparks Worlds Famous Shows to
Visit Ely for One Day Only
Two Exhibitions

Four hundred people employed
and carrying over two hundred
foreign and domestic animals, is
the statement made by Mr.. f. M.
Heaton, agent for the Sparks Shows,
who was in town last Friday max
ing arrangements for the appear
ance of this big circus here on Fri
day, July 18th.
The strange colony of people,
handsome horses, rare wild animals
and the goldea caravan are sched-
uled to arrive here during the early
hours of the morning of the above
date in their own special trains
from Biwabik, where they will ex-
hibit the day before.
Circus day will begin with big
street parade at 1890 a. m. and
two performances will be given,
the first starting at 2 O'Clock and
the other at 8 o'clock.
The grounds opposite the depot
have been arranged for by the
agent and number of our mer-
chants will receive contracts to
furnish immense quantities of feed
stuff for both man and beast.
+ The Sparks World Famous
Shows have been successfully estab-
l1shed for the past twenty-seven
years and bear reputation in the
Eastern sections of the country
second to none for the high class
exhibitions presented and the hon
est manner they have of dealing
with the public-no gambling or
grating being tolerated or carried
with these shows.

TOWER EASY
Tower and Ely Play a List|ess
Game Sunday

Tower came up Sunday for the
third game of the series between
themselves and the Ely team.
From the beginning it was clearly
case of too much Ely for Tower.
Tower was handicapped by the
absence of Cook and Hickey, two
of their best players.
The first inning started just like
a ball game but later developed in
to a horse race or some other
amusement. Carlson, the Tower
slab artist was nit at will and Will
hanson also was charged with a
few. Williamson resigned his
place to Mcclellan in the sixth in
ming. Nc. pitched fair ball for a
few innings but was hit quite
freely.
Notwithstanding the fact that
the field on the Ely side worked
like clock, Tower succeeded in
securing eight runs. Ely piled up
total of II during this time. Carl
son and Murray were in the points
for Tower for the larger part of the
! game. Carlson was later replaced
/ by Longmore. The attendance
was fair. Burnside and Harri UNI
pired the game, the former behind
the bat and the latter on BASES.
Next Sunday the Ely boys take
on the Winton team for a game
that will be fought to the finish.
This game will be played on the
home grounds and promises to of
some importance. The game is
called for O. clock.

FOUGHT A WOMAN
Ka|an Brothers Before the Court
ON Rather Serious Charge

JOS, Louis and John Kalan were
brought before the court Monday
on the charge of having beaten
Mrs. Frank Novak with clubs,
stones and other missiles. The as
sault took place at the Chandler
location Sunday and the assaulted
has been under the physicians care
since.
The testimony went to show that
some difficulty had arisen and a
wordy war followed by battle in
which Mrs. Novak was badly
beaten. The men were allowed
their freedom on bail Monday and
the case set for hearing on Tues
day. Tuesday Louis Kalan was
allowed to go, the evidence having
failed to connect him with the out
rage. John Kalan failed to appear
and the report has been circulated
that he left for the old country.
Jos. Kalan was find $50 and costs
amounting to $3.50.
The Kalans figure in the police
court altogether too often and they
are recognized as rather tough
customers. This latest exploit is
certainly the peer of them all.

KENT VS.. cOST|N
Complaint Filed by Capt. Kent
against John Costin

The Duluth papers last week
brought the gist of the complaint
filed byFrank Kent of this city
against John Costin, Jr. of Virginia.
The papers said:
Frenzied financial dealing and
wierd stock manipulations are char
ged in district court by Frank A.
Kent to compel John Costin, Jr.
to transfer to him Al ,667 shares
of the Chandler Mining company
located in southwest quarter section
%, township 90, range IL, St.
Louis county. A restraining order
IS also asked against the defendants
to prevent them from selling or dis
posing of the disputed mining stock.
Kent, miner for the past twenty
five years, is resident of Ely. On
August $1,000, he says, he was in
formed that the Chandler Iron COM
pany intended to relinquish its lease
on their property. Having been
connected with the company and
knowing that there was consider
able merchantable iron ore not
yet mined. he proposed to E. D.
Mcneil that they get an option
i'll the property, he says. Accord
ingly, he asserts, Mcneil introduc-
ed him to Costin and they agreed
to get an option and begin work
each to share equally the cost of the
