TRIED SUICIDE
John Snuk Shoots Himself Sunday
Financial Matters the Cause

John Smuk, aged about 22, at
tempted suicide Sunday by shoot
ing himself with a revolver. The
bullet entered on the left side be-
tween the eighth and ninth rib and
passed through parts of the
intestines and presumably lodged
in the kidney. His condition has
been such that the physicians could
not operate on him.
The motive for the shooting has
not been given out. Friends of the
young man claim financial diff
culties were responsible while
others claim it was an affair of the
heart. He has been sconducting a
saloon for several months and it is
said his financial affairs were not in
the best of condition.
His father, Jos. Smuk, who
resides on a farm at Gheen was
notified and he arrived Monday.
Other relatives were also sum-
moned. The young man has
many friends here who are panied
over the affair and hope he may
recover.

Now Second Glass

Beginning with July LIST the Ely
postofice became a Second Class
Office. This shows a constant
growth in the receipts of the office
and it is to be hoped that it will
retain its place in the Second class
from now on. The receipts for
last year were over 81 400 more
than in the year before and totalled
for the year over IS, 900. Nothing
but stamps and box rents are
counted in this and from the
figures it can be seen that consider
able stamps were disposed of. The
force remains as before with the
exception thae Miss Jennie Skog-
land is now assistant postmaster
instead of Lewis J. White, hereto
fore holding that position. Miss
Emma Kinsman is general clerk
and also has charge of the postal
bank business.

SOME RUNNER
A. {. Hatcher a Red Flag Orator
from St. Paul is a Sprinter

The anti-Socialistic feeling in
Ely is noticeable to a marked de-
gree. Sunday evening A. E.
Hatcher St. Paul agitator, opened
up for speech at the Berglund
corner and was preparing for
genuine soap box harrangue of ex-
listing conditions as pictured by
those who see red in everything.
He opened up with the announce
ment that he would recite a little
poetry until the crowd gathered
and did so.
AS soon as he secured a crowd
he opened the main address of the
evening and launched into an abuse
of the police department, the city
and its officers and the government.
He had not gotten very far in his
spell when the fire alarm whistle
was sounded. He said he knew
what was coming and proceeded to
put on a rubber coat.
The alarm had been turned in
from the bank corner and the fire
boys attached the hose to the by
drant probably with the intention
of giving Mr.. Agitator a good
ducking. He was not there how
ever and those present say that the
time made by him in getting out
of the way would qualify him as a
marathon Splinter that would put
Hannes Kolemainen in the shade.
Hatcher later addressed an audi
ence of six people in the Labor
Temple.
1t is unfortunate CD that it was
necessary to call out the depart
ment to squelch the fellow but the
feeling here against the profession
al agitator has reached such a
stage that riot-inciting addresses
will not be tolerated. This is not
a healthy community for this class
of trouble breeders and the sooner
they come to this knowledge the
better it will be for them. A nice
cool stream of water with little
pressure behind it has soothing
effects on the nerves of the red
f1agger who has become fired with
the woes of the down trodden, at SO
much per woe. The whistle blew
before the collection could be taken
and Mr.. Agitator and his body
guard of presidents" and 'secre-
taries" failed to realize anything
more than that they were not
wanted.
The authorities have failed to
locate the person guilty of turning
in the alarm.

New Money Order

Beginning with last Wednesday
a new money order went into use
in the postofices of the country.
Hereafter money orders can be
cashed at any office. Heretofore
all money orders had to be cashed
at the office designated in the order
but the new law does away with
this provision. This order affects
all offices in the continental United
States excepting Alasks.
The new provision also states,
however, that the orders must be
presented for payment on or before
the expiration of thirty days follow
ing the date of issue. Ali orders
must be drawn upon offices having
money order departments. After
the thirty-day limit is up orders
must be cashed at the Office desig-
mated within one year from the
date of issue to be valid.
The government has issued new
form to be used under the new style
of making out money orders, but
they will not be used in any Offices
until the supply of old forms has
been exhausted. The process of
issue of the new money orders will
be practically the same as that
used at the present time. The new
forms have been. prepared so that
the work can be more effectually
carried on.

CAUGHT BY A SHAFT.
Andrew NOrdquist Instantly Killed
Saturday Afternoon

A most distressing accident hap
pened at the St. Croix mill Satur-
day afternoon that cost the life of
Andrew Nordquist, one of the old
est and most respected residents of
Winton.
Mr.. Nordquist was employed as
mill-wright at the St. Croix plant
and had occasion to inspect shaft
Saturday afternoon while the mill
was in operation. The shaft was
in somewhat of an out of the way
place and in some manner he was
caught and whirled to his death.
The mill was stopped as rapidly as
possible and the body removed.
1t was found that his neck was
broken besides other bones in his
body and one arm was badly dis
figured.
The blow fell on the people of
Winton with a pressing force and
the mill was at once shut down
until after the funeral, which took
place Monday afternoon from the
family residence at Winton. The
funeral was attended by the entire
population of our neighboring city
and during the hours all business
houses and all operations were at a
standstill.
Ely Lodge No. 22O, I. o. 0. F.
had charge of the funeral and
escorted the remains to the Ely
cemetery. The remains were taken
to the Winton church where Rev.
]. c. Mapson conducted services.
The choir rendered special music
and Mr.. Mapson made a very
touching address.
Mr.. Nordquist was 40 years of
age and leaves a widow and two
grown step-children to mourn his
passing. A brother who resides at
Virginia with his family were pre-
sent at the funeral and many other
outside relatives. He was men,
Der of the Odd Fellows and also
the Woodmen. By those who
knew him, Mr.. Nordquist was
looked upon as well living, God
fearing man and his passing has
removed a loving husband and
father and a kind friend.
Some men are so skeptical they
never even believe themselves.
