East Ely Plans
Clean Up Day
PLENTY OF TEAMS HAVE BEEN
OBTAINED BY WOMAN'S CLUB,
AND HOT LUNCH WILL BE
SERVED AT NOON HOUR.

The "city beautiful" move has
struck East Ely. Next Friday has
been designated as cleanup day. The
movement to prevent the accumula-
tion of rubbish and refuse was start
ed three weeks ago by the Woman's
Club. when a committee met with
Arthur Smith. manager of the Ely
Securities company, and asked him
to cooperate in the enterprise.
Mr. Smith has agreed to furnish
two teams and one man, while NJ. T..
Collins indicates that he is strong
for the idea of carting away all un-
slightly material by offering one team
and a man to aid the workers.
1t Is the desire of the committee Ia
in charge of the affair that property
owners have their premises cleaned,
and the accumulation piled in such
way that 1t will be convenient fol
the teams to haul the unsanitary
stuff away.
A hot lunch will be served at the
schoolhouse during the noon hour
for the benefit of the hungry work
ers. The ladies are anxious to OBJ
tain assistance in the shape of food
stuffs in order that those who ara
desirous of making East Ely the
spotless city may be rewarded in
some way.
The public schools will close on
this day in order to give the pupils
an opportunity to take part in the
cleanup program.

the district last Sunday for those
seeking recognition. A large delega-
tion from Ely went to McGill to wit
ness the shearing of the sheep by ma

animals are relieved of their wool

No Hope for
Wounded Man
CHRIST PANos, WHO WAS SHOT
THREE TIMES BY GUST DEMO-
CELLS AT McGILL, Is IN CRITI-
CAL CONDITION.

With three wounds in his back
and shoulder through an ungovern-
able passion to argue about matters
of religious nature, Christ Panos
cook in the Greek quarters at Me-
Gill, is in critical condition at the
Steptoe hospital. His lower limbs
are paralyzed and his death is only
matter of hours and days.
Gust Demogelis, who Is accused of
shooting Panis. narrowly escaped
being killed. while he was seeking a
haven of safety. He was half a
mile away before Deputy Sheriff
Holmes detected him going in the
direction of Smelterville.
AS the distance between the officer
and the accused murderer narrow
ed down to one hundred yards,
trouble was in store for the fugitive.
After Holmes had refused to hold
up his hands as the Greek requested.
he discharged his revolver in the
air, being under the impression that
Demogelis would submit without
further trouble.
The deputy sheriff was surprised
when a bullet whizzed by his ear
and he realized for the first time
that his life was in danger. De-
mogelis dropped to the ground on
the third shot from tne officers re-
volver, having received wound in
the groin. The foreigner seemed I'M
willing to throw away his weapon
until Holmes warned hin, that de-
lays we're dangerous il. this paftic-
ular instance.
The shooting attracted a grea'
crowd in the streets. and hundreds
of Greeks tried to get into the place
where the trouble occurred. The
pressure from without made it almost
impossible to remove the wounded
man to a place where he could be
properly cared for.
Demogelis was taken To the county
hospital shortly after he was taker
inty custody by Deputy Sheriff Hol.
mes and John T. West In the latter
machine The wounded man is not
regarded as dangerous. and no SER
ious consequences are feared unless
blood poisoning should develop.
