TWENTY YEARS AGO.
Taken from The Ely Miner of
the same date in 1901.

The village well at Biwabik from
which the town secures it's water,
caved in Wednesday afternoon.
Workmen, with the assistance of the
village recorder, Lutes, were putting
in new pump and were in the well
when the cave occurred. Lutes and
the others were rescued with the ex-
ception of a man named Mclaughlin
who was dead when found. The vii
lage is practically without water at
present.
During the past week some city
real estate moved besides the usual
pine and mineral land transfers. F..
L. Cowen has sold to A. Crossman,
lots l and 2, block 26, for $400; lot
a, block &c, to Erick Peterson for
$500 and lot 8, block 26, to Matt
Meitunnen for 5000.
Fred Webster, who went into Ev-
eleth three months ago with the Yer
million Iron Journal and published
the Eveleth Leader, has discontinued
the publication of the Leader and
will remove to the southern part of
the state. The Leader was a good
paper and deserved more liberal sup
port than was given it.

The Minnesota Iron company has
removed the diamond drill from Sec
ton 80 for causes best known to
themselves. The machine was put
in at Armstrong Lake. The COM
pany's drills at Robinson Lake have
been removed to Tower where they
will be put to work south of town.
"Spike" Sullivan and VIM. Ran
dolph of Rainy Lake had a grudge
against one another since last sum-
mer. Last week they met at Rainy
Lake and Sullivan put two holes in
Randolph with a revolver while the
latter blew Sullivan's head off with
shot gun. Both are well known in
Ely and Tower, Randolph being the
mail carrier into the Canadian gold
country. Sullivan was a tough Gus
toner and died as he expected-with
his boots on.
Frank Wilkins who underwent an
operation at the Shipman Hospital
whereby a cancer was removed from
/ his tongue ten days ago has recov-
cred sufficiently to enable him to be
out.
In the council proceedings of
twenty years ago we find the follow
ing showing the contrast between
then and now. "The bids for wood
were then opened and read, the only
one being that of Anton Kotchevar
offering the city wood at the follow
/ ing prices: Tamarack, $3.50 per
cord; Jackpine, S2.75 per cord and
mixed who'd at $3.50 per cord"
Matt Sunema, or MATT the Cut
ter" as he is better known, celebrated
Monday by using his knife promis-
cously. His efforts to slash were
crowned with success when he met
Ed. Lindbeck whom he carved in the
most approved manner. Notwith-
standing a warrant has been issued
for Matt, he cannot be found.

Harry Goodman who has been with
the Oliver people as diamond setter

will hold a similar position. Fred
Johnson will accompany him.

EXPANSION Of water.

While nearly all substances are
heavier In solid form than In the
liquid state. ordinary ice 10 lighter
than water and will float in 1t. This is
due to the fact that as It approaches
the freezing point water begins to ex-
pand, and when 1t freezes. 1t expands
so as to increase Its volume about one
ninth. This expansive force is suffi-
GENTLY strong to break glass and
earthen pitchers and to split open
great rocks in the crevices Of which
water has frozen.

There are thousands Of American

are too indolent to do anything, anG
the other half "do' everything and

Are you playing fair with the farm
boy? You give him a pig; you paid
your taxes with the hog; you sold the
corn he raised, and the colt he saved
leaving him nightmare for his tr0u-

of a fit than a CONFUSION, and then
you wondered why he didn't like the
