first masquerade ball at their hall in
Baraga township this evening. The
committee having the affair in charge
is doing everything possible to make
the party success and it is believed
that the largest number of maskers
that have been seen at an affair Of this
kind in years will take part in the grand
march on this occasion. A number Of
very pretty costumes are being made
specially for this party and It Is certain
that many comic costumes will be seen.
From the great interest that ID being
shown It is thought that the party will
be q very largely attended affair.
Dancing will be indulged in and q fine
program Of popular dances is being ar
ranged.
There will be . first, second and third
prize for fancy dress costumes and q
first prize for comic costume. The
admission fee will be 50c each, and q
charge Of S5c per plate will be made for
supper.

L'ANSE WINS BOTH
BASKET BALL GAMES.

Last Saturday evening, at the Opera
House, the Michigamme girls team and
the Calumet boys team went own to
defeat at the hands of our local high
school organisations. -.
The Michigamme. girls lost by the
score of 22 to 20, and L'Anse was lucky
to come out on the right end of the
total although they did good work.
Michigamme led at the end Of the first
half, and held the leadership until near
the close of the second half. when the
local girls forged ahead.
The Calumet game was the hair raiser.
however, and in the first half it was
nip and tuck. L'Anse led in this period
by score of II to II. In the second
half L'Anse started off with q rush,
and soon raised the twelve point lead;
from then on it was toss-up and 1t
was anybody's game up to the last few
minutes. The final score was L'Anse
49, Calumet 81.
For the Calumet team. we will say It
was the fastest organization that has
appeared here in years. They were
taller On an average than the local bunch
and easily outweighed them, but they
had beautiful team work and were it
not for them being unable to accurately
locate the basket, they might have
given L'Anse q real bad scare. The
local squad, however. were not up to
their usual fine condition, and also
missed some easy shots for goal. Cred
where credit is due, however, so the
team is to be complimented on their
work in conquerinG 80 strong an oppon-
ent.
The L'Anse boys leave this morning
for Greenland, where they will play
the high school team tonight.

titled to thirty delegates to the Republi-
can national convention in Chicago, be-
sides the usual number Of alternatives.
In the township spring elections, it is
optional with the township committees
to nominate by primary or by caucus.
The fact of general re-registration
must not be forgotten. There is no
separation now between the registra-
tion for primary and a regular elec-
tion. One registration does for all.
When a voter registers once in the
spring that does for four years, unless
the residence Of the voter is changed in
the meantime.

CALUMET WINS
FROM PEQUAMINC.

Calumet took crack at the fast Pc
quaming hockey team Sunday and tied
Pequaming's scalp to their belt. Calumet
sent the fastest hockey team that ever
visited here. even faster than the Dol
lar Bays.
The management of the Pequaming
team does not wish to make excuses
for the defeat, but 1t could easily be
seen that the team was far from being
in the best Of shape. Heughens was
fighting all week with the grip, and
Needham played plucky game with q
badly bruised hip which he received in
the Dollar Bay game. Topsy Soil was
only able>to see out of one eye-the re-
suit Of q practise game when . stick
struck him in the optical organ. Even
at that Pequaming put up its usual
snappy game.
Savinni was q power on defense for
the visitors and also demonstrated his
ability as puck handler. His rushes
were great and he scored once as a re-
suit. The forward line was very fast
with Chayie showing up the most con-
spicuous.
: McGlynn at goal played q great game,
while Andersen and the two VanAbels
held down their positions like veterans.
The game was cleanly played-only one
penalty being imposed that offender
being Heughens for throwing his stick.
Savinni. Chayie, Voegler and AL.
Tornquist each made one and Andersen
netted Pequamfng's two.
A return game will be played the
latter part Of the month and Calumet
is in for beating when they meet.
DR.. E. A. Waara, the popular dentist
Of L'Anse and the famous left wing Of
the Portage Lakes five or six years
ago, refereed and satisfied both teams
and spectators.

and the sky is now threatening. We
 kept dry except that one corner of the tent let in a little water, and we had to make better trench to carry it away. Orc Blanco is a village near tho mine by the same name, and consists of about eight houses and a post office.
 There is a big valley called the AL tar, I think, which reaches to the Gulf of California. Our river flows into it and we are in one of many tributary valleys It is only few miles from here but I have not hap pened to go in that direction ret. Right at the head of our valley and near the Altar is one of the finest peaks I have ever seen. They call it Baboqin Vari. It IS a rock with al- most perpendicular sides standing head and shoulders higher than any of it's neighbors.
 We are settling to a routine and ing. We are first covering the near by trails and will later take all day trips and then probably trips of sev- eral days duration. Sunsets are just as wonderful as ever, and each one different. There is also a certain sense of freedom that you get nere that is not found around New Eng land. There is nothing to stop our view in practically any direction, ex- cept mountains and these are far away.

Trooper Maurice H. Pease of this city, now at the Mexican border with Troop B of Hartford, writes the fol- lowing interesting letter to his mother, Mrs. L. Hoyt Pease, of Lexington street:
 Armaca Post Office, Arizona,
 August 16, 1916.
 Dear Mother: Once again it is guard night and the taps are sounding 10 o'clock. I shall be up until 1 o'clock and again at a. m. We have four guards posted all night, two on the house and one in the corral, where we are can1ped and one on the street to stop vehicles and see that no arms or ammunition are going into Mexico.
 This is an ideal situation so far as this country is concerned and we are getting settled. Two or three more days will complete our mess tent. Four of the tents, the first sergeant's and the sergeants' tents have been raised about three feet and are board ed and screened in. They make very comfortable little shacks. We may do it but it costs $50 and is some trouble so we may put it off.
 Bert Peck has been here over Sun day, and it seemed good to see him. He knows the other S. R. and l.. fel- lows better than he does me, that is Ed Barnett. We took him for a ride and he seemed to enjoy it. He left here for Tucson and Phoenix, Ariz.. and then goes home, arriving in about a month.
 Today we took a good ride to Orc Blanco, about eight miles away. In the morning we had a good shower
