CLASS PLAY
"THE MAN OF THE HOUR" ABLY
PRESENTED BY THE CLASS
OF 1919.

Under the personal direction of
Miss Ruth P. Sutton, teacher of pub
lie speaking in the Ely schools, the
strong four-act political play, "The
Man of the Hour" was presented at
the Washington Auditorium Friday
evening by the Class of 1919. Every
available seat in the commodious
auditorium was filled when the cur
tain arose on the first act of the play
Each and every one of those taking
part did nobly with the rather heavy
roles assigned them. The smooth and
finished manner in which the pre-
sentation was made showed much his
trionic ability and much study on the
part of those in the cast and an ex-
ceptionally able supervision on the
part of the director. Owing to the
excellent Interpretation of the several
parts by those in the cast precludes
the possibility of individually men,
tioning those taking part, but suffice it
to say that many claimed this the
best play ever given by any class in
the years gone by-and we must adj
NIT that we have had some good ones
Those in the cast were the follow
ing: Joseph Veranth, Reginald Map
son, Joseph Pluth, Merlyn Lindahl,
Michael Rom, Martin Lindahl, James
Nicholas, Elmo Laitala, Joseph Ro-
lando, Frank Scufca, Frank Gustaf-
son, Ruth Hanson, Margaret Brou-
lette, Aune Martin, Mary Camaish.

SILVER WEDDING.

Mr.. and Mrs. Gabriel Hipakka Gel
ebrated their silver wedding at their
home in this city Thursday last. Over
hundred friends and neighbors
were present and assisted the couple
in fittingly celebrating the day. A
program of vocal and instrumental
selections were given and lunch was
served. Mr.. and Mrs. Hipakka were
married in this city rs years ago. A
handsome silver set was left them
by the guests as a memento of the
occasion and a tribute to the esteem
in which the couple is held.

MUCH LAND SOLD.

The land department of the Duluth
& Iron Range railroad reports re-
markably good demand for lands for
development during the months of
March and April. About 1000 acres
were sold in tracts of 40 to 80 acres,
and the business was uncommonly
large for those months. Most of the
land was in St. Louis and Aitkin
counties. Further large demand is
expected to develop after seeding is
done and farmers have more time to
look around. A feature of the de-
mand is that much of it was from the
people residing in this section.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1919-05-23

with John Stembal went to where
Cyrille Fortier is putting in his mill
ostensibly to look for work. While
Stembal was at the camp looking
things over, the other men sat on a
log near there and smoked cigarettes.
After the men left, it was discovered
that a nice little brush fire had start
ed and man from the camp with
water put it out as he thought, eff
fectively. The heavy wind of little
later famed the smouldering embers
and before it could be reached the fire
had gained considerable Roadway and
was burning through the dry woods
in the direction of the Beach.
Alderman Brozich at once gath
cred crew in this city and with the
chemical department of the city and
the Fortier mill crew and after he
roic efforts got the blaze under con-
troll but not until damages to the
amount of over $1,000 had been done.
Mr. Brozich then investigated with
the results that the two were arrest
ed and fined as above stated.
Many fires are reported by the
forest rangers and the only wonder
is how do they start miles OUT in the
forest. 1t is presumed that careless
campers and fishermen, settlers and
logging concerns are accountable for
the larger part. It surely is criminal,
in the existing dry spring to set fires
for burning brush. The woods are as
dry as shavings and small fires soon
become large ones and absolutely
uncomfortable. The affair at Moose
Lake last year is yet fresh in the
minds of the people and the best of
feelings are not entertained against
those starting fires.
Cyrille Fortier makes the state
ment that his loss in the fires last
fall amounted to over $4,000 and he
thought Mondays blaze would finish
him. This was averted however.
A few stiff Jail sentences of a
year or six months would have a tend
ency to set people to thinking where
they throw their matches.

COUNTY BOND
ELECTION SOON
$7,50O,0O0 BONDS FOR PAVING
27O MILES OF ROAD.

A special election will be held in
st. Louis county July for the pur-
pose of submitting to the voters the
question of issuing $7,500,00 worth
of bonds for the construction of ap-
proximately 270 miles of state roads
in the county. The county board of
commissioners Tuesday ordered such
al election to be held.
1t is planned to issue the bonds in
such quantities as are required as
the work of paving st. Louis county
progress. The bonds will be of the
denomination of $1,000 each and will
bear interest at the rate of per
cent per annum. They will be pay
able not more than ten years from
their date.
To Get Federal Aid.
The amount of the proposed bond
issue is the estimated cost of building
the state road system in the county
with federal aid. The plans and speci-
fications as we'll as route and termini
of the roads must be approved by the
state commissioner of highways. The
board instructed Mr.. Acton, county
road engineer, to prepare plans and
specifications with all reasonable dis
patch.
The general election will be held
Tuesday, July /, at the regular hours
and places of general elections unless
it is otherwise ordered. A majority
of voters must approve the issue.
Four Main Roads.
Four main roads are included in the
state highway system in st. Louis
county. The most important of these
is the highway between Duluth and
the Range, which will probably be the
first to be built. Survey of routes
along the Miller Trunk road and the
Duluth, Missabe & Northern rail-
roads are now being made by the
county road engineer for the pur-
pose of obtaining data upon which
the county board may determine the
route the highway will follow.
