Mrs. Carpenter
Is Summoned
THE SUDDEN TAKING AWAY OF
POPULAR YOUNG WOMAN WILL
COME AS SHOCK TO MANY
FRIENDS IN DISTRICT.

After lowering between life and
death for many hours, Mrs. Louisa
Riepe Carpenter answered the final
summons Friday afternoon at the
family home on Murry street.
Within short time after the birth
of a second son last Sunday, the at
tending physicians and nurses found
that her condition was serious, and
that she did not improve as rapidly
as expected. Death came to her, the
end being peaceful and painless, and
in the flush of splendid. and digni-
fed womanhood she was no more.
Mrs. Carpenter was born in Ely
August 27, 1890, and was the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Riepe, who
were pioneers in the business field
at the county seat. Her father died
nineteen years ago, when she was
extremely young. Her mother was
married the second time to John A.
Magnuson, and died in June, 1909.
She Is survived by her husband, one
son, Albert Jr., another son, who has
not been named. and a sister, MISC
Caroline c. Riepe.
After completing the required
course of study in the Fly schools,
Mrs. Carpenter was student AT
Mills college at Oakland. California,
and earned a reputation for pro-
ficienoy in her school work.
Mrs. Carpenter has many personal
friends in the Ely district, and her
sudden taking away will come as a
great shock to those who knew hea
best She was noted for her kind
deeds and acts of courtesy, and al
ways had cheerful word for al
with whom she came in contact. The
funeral will occur at o'clock this
afternoon from Sacred Heart church
and will be under the direction Of
Father Sheehan.

]. o. McKernan, deputy sheriff at
East Ely, obtained judgment against
the Steptoe Valley Smelling conf
pany in the district court yesterday
in the sum of $1,000 for the loss of
an eye, which resulted from an
injury received by plaintiff. while he
was operating a steam punch in the
company's boiler shop at McGill.
Although a settlement had been ar
ranged between the litigants before
the case was ever set for trial. it was
necessary for the matters in dispute
to be heard in court owing to pecu-
liar decision handed down by the Ne
vada state supreme court.
Under the provisions of that ruling
person who has received injuries
while in the employ of corporation
may start a damage suit against the
company which employed him at the
time the accident occurred. although
he had previously signed legal
document releasing the company
from all liability for damages.
1t was the contention of the higher
court that a company against whom
an action for damages is pending
must actually be sued for a certain
specific sum before it is freed from
responsibility in the matter of a
monetary balm to the injured party.
The proceedings in the case of Me-
Herman against the Steptoe company
were purely formal. When the case
was called for trial yesterday at
torney for plaintiff moved for judg-
ment on the pleadings. AS no OPP
position developed on the part of the
defense, the motion was granted by
Judge Coleman without delay.

KELLEY IS WORKING
WOOD RIVER MINES

A. w. Kelley, who Is well known In
the Ely district through his large
mineral holdings prior to the build
ing OF the Nevada Northern, and
through his Identification with the
Cobre townsite. is going to be res
ponslble for the starting of renewed
activity In the old Wood River dis
trict of Idaho.
The Utah-Belvue Mines company,
of which Kelley Is the principal stock
holder. is preparing for extensive de-
velopment work as soon as weather
conditions will permit the transpor-
tation of supplies.
This famous section in which Is
bound up a goodly part of the history
and romance of Idaho mining history
centering chiefly about the produc-
tion of the Minnie Moore group,
which has added millions TO the
worlds wealth years ago. seems about
to come into Its own again.
The impetus of development gain
ed last year, when a number of new
properties were opened up, is carry
ing over into the coming season with
increasing energy and something
very like boom is expected to re-
suit.

ON THE FIELD OF WATERLOO
Memorial That Marks the Scene d
One of the Worlds Great
est Battles.

Great among the landmarks OF End

its mound 200 feet high. says the
Strand. Ten miles from the city d
Brussels it marks the plain where owe,
$4,000 men were killed, wounded and
missing. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that 1t was fought on June Is
1915, and that it eliminated the cam
paign following Napoleons escaps
from Elba and stopped his mighty ed
fort to conquer all Europe.
The Duchess of Richmond gave
ball in Brussels on June Is; at mid
night Wellington, having already
heard that the outposts had been en-,

who seemed fated to cause useless
loss of life through his blunders Even
now he ought to have been at Bfnche.
where the duke promptly sent him.
after inouiring for news.
Far from being surprised at the
evenings attack, as some writer's as
sert, the duke had dispatched his or
ders before he went to the ball. for at
2 a. M. strange sounds broke the
nights silence, and great masses OF
troops were on the move, bugles were
blowing everywhere and people opened
their windows to see the various reg
iments tramp past. A Highland bandI
were playing their bagpipes to the
swing of the BLACK Watch" as they
went out to battle through the Ma
muir gate. Curiousiy enough, many Of
the officers were still wearing their
silk stockings and dancing pumps, for
the heat was so intense that men
went mad and died on the march; but
for the rest, they pushed on and were
soon under FIRE. The battle itself is
eclipsed by the thought of the awful
the plain so filed with the
dying and the dead that for three days
parties brought in the wounded.
In the hurry 800 bodies were flung
down a well. For 80 years the corn
crops were Of deeper color where
they grew over the blood of the slain
