On Decoration Day our thoughts
will turn to the heroes of the North and
South who gave so much for the cause
they believed in.
Custom has made this day mark
another annual event--the start of Sum-

of the Summer months, we must be pre-

the right wearing apparel.

SAN FRANCISCO AND THE WAR
 FLEET

As every one knows, the big At lantic war fleet Is not to visit San Francisco, according to the or iginal program, says the Portland Telegram, and the reasons there fore are quite generally understood. San Francisco is disappointed, na- turally; but with some of the San Francisco papers disappointment has run to resentful criticism of the navy department and the admins tration.
 It Is generally realized on this coas' that the show at the Bay City, is a little the biggest show Cj it's kind that ever happened; and In that fact there Is Pacific Coast pride and congratulation. There is also a general feeling that noth- ing is too good for the San Francis co exposition enterprise; and the greater, more attractive and more glorious it may be made the greater credit to all the .Citizeury of these Pacific shores. Yet there must be some consideration of expediency, Of possible contingency with pos s'ble results seriously affect ing the entire country, and of good sense in avoiding the one course of action by which. such contingency might be realized.
 We are not living in a condition of undue alarm over the thought of impendinO war; neither are we as a nation shutting our eyes to the gravity of the situation which ac- tually exists. We certainly should not take chances merely for the greater enjoyment of a holiday with the possible development of physical trouble in the canal which might compel us to remove one of our big battleships therefrom piece meal. In existing circumstances, i- is only the part of common and patriotic reason that the sea force We have should be we'll in hand, and that In no sense should its efficiency be risked as a mere mat ter of merrymaking.
 Originally there were ambitious nlans for an international naval demonstration and review at San Francisco, but world war has upset those plans. It is not good sense to undertake to carry them out so far as the American navy Is con cerned, and 1t Is not good manners tc be peevish about 1t. |

SUMMER OUTINGS

How many people In .Skagway know all the paths leading over the hills and up the.Y wales surround ing the town? How many know where each trail winds within a radius of a dozen miles? How many know each fishing stream, each dome, each flower patch, each at tractiYe nook up and down the river the first few miles? How many know the wood-chopperS' camps, where the wild flowers grow, the best springs flow, the most advantageous points from which to view the sweeping panor- amas of the country? There are some who know, but the great ma jority do not know. Knowledge or lack Of knowledge on these mat ters is proof of the time one spends out Of doors. He who spends no time under the blue skies ir such glorious suA- merlaud as this works to his own injury. He shorteus his own life. Many of Skagway's children could move about among the hills and wales with parents or escorts to the same advantage as adults. One thrilled only with themes in books, fashion plates, new clothes or what is within the confines or a town, misses a great portion of hfe's best joys. Every season affords opportunities for the pedestrian to get about, but now Is the most fas- cinating time of all the year. Let those who appreciate life and recreation and added years get closer to nature.

UNUSUAL CHARGES
in DIVORCE CASES
Two seek Dissolution of Marriage
Bonds Because Wives Enjoyed
Friendship of Other Men.

The sordid and the unusual leaped
into the spotlight yesterday in the
domestic relations department of the
district court Richard Wills was
granted a divorce from Mary A.Wills
on the ground of adultery. Plain
tiff offered convincing testimony
that his wife had been intimate with
his brother Bnjamin. The issuance of
the decree was not contested. The
couple were married in 1905, and
three children are the result of the
union.
Charles Willoughby filed suit for
divorce in the Clerks office yester-
day against Helen May Willoughby.
The complaint alleges that the de-
fendant committed adultery with one
Coates on January Z, 1907, and that
four children were the result of the
unlawful union. The plaintiff express
es willingness to keep the four
children that were born during the

One bottle of the stuff that made
Milwaukee famous cost George Capa-
lanz $50. The willy foreigner. who
had been conducting a blind pig at
MeGill, was plying his Illicit traffic
without molestation. Reports of boot
Logging in the foreign quarter reach
ed the ears of the officers and as Ca
palanz was suspected of selling liquor
without a license. his movements
were closely watched by Deputy Sher-
III Holmes. He was detected in the
act of selling bottle of beer to a
minor, and placed under arrest. The
defendant furnished a cash bond of
$50 for his appearance in the Justice
court last Monday morning Capa-
lanz failed to put in an appearance

assistant cashier of the McGill and
Copper National banks. and G. l..
House. storekeeper at the Smelter
encountered two bird dogs that had
been caught in traps which had pre-
sumabiy been set for coyotes. The
dogs were almost dead from pain and
hunger when they we're rescued from
their dire predieament. but were able
to make their way to their homes
upon being released. Because of
their suffering they had become
somewhat vicious and it was with
considerable difficulty that the hunt
ers were able 10 release them. One
of the dogs managed to bite Mr..
House on the wrist. but made only a
slight injury.

Firenen S Ball
Was Big Noise
FIFTH ANNUAL BALL GIVEN BY
COPPER QUEEN LODGE NO. 100
ATTRACTED LARGE THRONG
FROM ALL PARTS OF DISTRICT.

TO the East Ely auditorium was the
cry last Friday night. All roads led
to the Firemen's ball. Resplendent,
brilliant, and ephemeral, as light as
one of those iridescent bubbles,
whose perfection enchants one for a
feeting second, the fifth annual ball
given by Copper Queen Lodge No.
799 was the gayest and most en-
ioyable ever given by the members
of that organization.
True Il is always characteristic OF
Youthful enthusiasm to consider the
last the best and why not? To go
hack into ones memory for illustra-
tions of what seems TO be the acme
of perfection betokens such an in
difference to the virility of the pres
ent as to suggest decrepitude of the
faculty of joy.
The hall, decorated as II never was
before. was the rendezvous for 400 rep
resentatives of the socially prominent
from all parts OF the district. With
the beautiful debntantes and the
stately matrons graeing the occasion
with their presence. there was a
scene OF splendor which has never
before been equalled In these parts.
1t was the big thing in the social life
of the district and no one knew it
better than the fremen themselves.
The members of Copper Queen
lodge were there TO the forefront In
dealing out affabllity. and the happy
throng as they glided across the
floor in dreamy waltz or raptu-
Gus rag to the strains of Gordon s
catchy music realized that ii was a
Herculean task for anyone to attempt
to eclipse the efforts of the firemen
as entertainers.
That there was plenty of enjoy
ment goes without saying From the
time the first dance was started until
the key was turned on the audi
torium door there was one continual
round of pleasure The social afford
ed the socially inclined no end OF
happy diversions. All the pretty ad-
jectiyes with which to express praise
would hardly do justice to the scenes
of dazzling brilliancy that featured
.he annual event.
Special trains We're run to McGiil
and the mines and they were crowd
ed with pleasure seekers who were
anxious TO accept the hospitality
of the entertainers de luxe. The
course from the depot TO the dancing
pavilion was brilliant with red
lights so that no opportunity was af-
forded the lovers OF the light fantas-
tic to miss the amusement place.
The interior of the auditorium was
decorated In a suitable manner with
lanterns and flags symbolic of the
order When the specials were car
rylng the merrymakers to outside
parts OF the district one sentiment
permeated the minds of all. Any
thing that the firemen cannot ar
range is unarrangeable.

TRANSIENT SHEEP ARE
ATTACHED BY GRAIN

The delusion that rowing bands of
sheep from Utah and Idaho would be
permitted to Craze in this county dur
ing the winter months in utter disre-
gard of the statutes was dispelled last
Wednesday when Sheriff c. S. Grain
attached about 1000 sheep belonging
to George Carson of Salem, Utah. in
the northeastern part of the county.
The amount due the county for graz
ing and personal property taxes is in
excess of $500.
The present whereabouts of Carson
are unknown. Ii is believed that the
wool grower whose herds are now
in the clutches of the law is some
where in California. Sheriff Grain
has been unable to obtain definite
information in regard to the missing
sheep man. The herds were placed
in charge OF A. Valentine
The attachment suit was brought
by District Attorney Jurich to deter
mine the legal rights of the county.
II is estimated that the county has
been deprived of $4,000 during the
last eight years through the practice
of transient sheep wintering in the
vicinity of Tippett. and the avowed
purpose of the owners to utterly dis
regard the law with respect to the
payment of taxes on their sheep
District Attorney Jurich has re-
turned from Elko, where he confer
red with the district attorney and
commissioners in regard to licenses
paid by owners of foreign sheep pass
ing through that county for the pur-
pose of wintering in our midst The
officials in Elko county signified a
willingness to treat White Pine coun-
ty fairly. and ii is quite likely that
this county in the future will receive
its just proportion Of the taxes from
the nomadic herds from other states.
Although the Elko officials did not
deny that they had been collecting
these licenses with more than ordin-
AIRY energy, they suggested that an
agreement be entered into between
the two counties for a division of the
revenue derived from this source.

In order that the children might

Lake Friday morning by Constable
David Mclean, where they will be

1t was through the efforts of Father
Sheehan, Sheriff Grain and Mrs. An
thony Zurich that the little girls were
afforded the opportunity to be
brought up under conditions that
were congenial.
The McManus family has caused
the officers and the charitable organ
izations in Ely untold trouble dur
ing the last year. The wife and chill
dren were brought in from Hercules
Gap two years ago in destitute cir
cumstances, where McManus had a
homestead and was attempting to
farm on a small scale. Since that
time the family has received assist

ANNUAL CONVENTION
OF WOOL GROWERS

Aside from the allotment of forest
permits, the most efficaeious method
of disposing of coyotes and other
predatory animals was one of the i'm
portant questions considered at the
annual meeting OF the White Pine
Wool Growers association in Ely last
Wednesday. The majority of the
shep men preferred trapping animals
that prey upon their herds rather
than resort to the strychnine route.
believing that the use of any form of
poison killed too many valuable dogs.
Officers were selected as follows:
Richard T. Swallow. president; John
Yelland. vice president: Henry J.
Marriott. secretary and treasurer.
District Attorney Anthony Jurich
and Assessor F. NJ Clark appeared
at the meeting. and explained the ef
forts that they had made to compel
owners of transient sheep to pay
their proportion of grazing fees and
property tax on their rowing herds.
The friendly feeling that now pre-
vailed between the sheep men and
the forest reserve was evident at the
different sessions The betterment
of conditions generally and all mat
.ers pertaining to the business were
discussed.
The upward trend in the price of
wool and favorable weather eondi-
tions tended TO make the wool grow
ers feel optimistic, and genial spirit
prevailed throughout the gathering
The attendance was limited to the
following: Lee and Henry J. Mar
riott. Andrew and William Boundy,
Albert Roselund. James and Steve
Doutre. F. w and Leslie Clay Albin
Bellander. Richard T. Swallow, John
Yellond, ". j. Gardner, George Ba-
ker. W. n. McGill. Doyle Robson
Forest Supervisor George Thompson
and Ranger c. p. Thompson were in
attendance throughout the meeting
The advisory board is composed of
r. T. Swallow. Lee r. Marriott. John
yelland and James and Steve Doutre
1T looks as though the wool
growers are coming into clover" said
Henry j, Marriott, secretary of the
association. Not single sheep man
in the country has been willing to
contract for this years's clip. Thirty
cents Is the price predicted, and
everybody Is holding out until shear
ing time. No one is willing to name
price at this time. Although the
wool growers will profit by the
startling developments 1t will be
kind OF tough on the man who buys
suit or overcoat this winter. He
viii be compelled to pay higher
price and at the same time he will
be thankful that he lives in land
of peace and plenty"
