TaIonen Gets Five Years.

In circuit court Monday morn.
ing, Judge n RiSjord imposed a
sentence of four years in states
prison upon Gabriel DaPra, who
was found guilty of manslaughter
in the second degree for killing his
brother in law, Big Leo" Laguna
The DaPra case had attracted
considerable attention, the court
room being filled with spectators,
while it was being tried DdPra
was arrested Oct. end for shooting
his brother law, and during the
trial pleaded self defense. Motion
for a new trial was made by Geo
c. Foster, counsel for the defense,
but was denied by the court.
Five years i'll the penitentiary
was the sentence given John Tai
omen, upon his being found guilty
of rape.
Three other meu were sentenced
Monday, all three having plead
guilty to the charges against them.
Louis Bertotti, charged with at
tempting to dynamite the residence
of Dominic Mancio, was given two
years at Waupun. John Richards,
known as Texas Jack, was
sentenced to three years at Waupun
for burglary. Richards had broken
into the Marchetti saloon and stolen
SEQ 90 An attempt was made to
prove him criminally insane, but
it was unsuccessful. Hugo Niemi,
who admitted havingreceived stolen
goods to the amount of So 20 taken
from a Northwestern Railway box
car, was given 90 days in the county
Jail.
The case of VIM. Rufus, young
Indian, who was charged, with
breaking into the bank at Saxon,
was continued. 1t is probable he
will be turned over to the authori.
ties at Hayward where he is wan
ed on similar charge.
In the suit brought by Alex
MCCarl against Andrew and Emma
Sigler, verdict of $500, was
awarded the plaintiff. He claimed
to have been struck by Sigler while
unloading wood at the Sigler resid-
ence, and sustained broken arm
which incapactated him. Because
one of the jurors claimed to know
something of the case, counsel
agreed to try the case with eleven
jurors.
1t was announced in court Mon
day that the Peter Radakovch
murder case would be tried in the
Iron county circuit court, February
28th, with Judge Quinlan, of
Marinette presiding. Because the
defense counsel objected to the case
being tried by Judge Risjord, who,
he claimed was preiudiced, it was
decided to call in an outside arbit-
rator. Radakovich was charged
with the shooting of a woodsman
named Bailey, whose death oc-
Cured during drunken brawl in
the formers saloon at Upson. At
his hearing in municipal court, he
was released, the judge holding
that the shooting was justifable.
Later, Governor Blaine ordered
that he be brought up for trial
again, the case having beenbrought
to his attention by the American

Bailey was member.

New Power Lines Nearing Completion
Better Service for Gogebic Range.

totaling more than p. 900 horse
power with voltage of 66 goo, the
service given by the Ironwood &
BesSemer Railway and Light Com
pany Will be materially improved
The l.. + Myers Co, which
controls the Ironwood and Bess.
emer Railway & Light Co, as well
as the Ashland Light and Power
Co, have practically completed the
work on the new power lines.
The sub station for the power
lines is about completed. 1t is
located at the old power plant on
Pine street and represents an in
vestment alone of more than $50,
900. The station is the most
modern of its kind in the North
west. All the latest wrinkles in
electrical control and efficiency are
installed to give Ironwood a CON
tinuous and sufficient service in SO
far as is humanity possible.
The Myers interests generate
electric energy at seven points.
The Ashland steam plant, the
largest of the number is 1900
horsepower unit, About 90 600
volts are carried over the trans.
mission lines from this plant to
Ironwood. AT Superior and Saxon
Falls on the Montreal river near
Saxon about 4Ioo horsepower is
produced from two water plants
which IN turngenerate 33, 900 volts.
AT Mellen 5000 volts are generat-
ed from two water power plants,
and 1900 horsepower generates
10, 500 volts at water plant on
the White river, south of Ashland.
AT Wakefield 1900 horsepower may
be developed at an auxiliary steam
plant
All of this electrical power is
transmitted to Ironwood over high
power lines to the sub. station.
where it is distributed to various
points on the range. Much of this
power is reduced throue h mann
moth transformers for power for
mines and industries, while a por-
ton Is distributed for the range
lighting and street railway systems.
Other lines from the plant lead to
Bessemer and Wakefield In the
near future it is planned to hook
up with the local plant a direct
transmission line with a water
power plant at Ladysmith, Wis.
which will carry about 90. 900 volts
of electricity.
Automatic high tension oil
switches have been installed at the
sub station here for each outgoing
feeding line, and all feeders and
transmission lines are equipped
with selective relays, cutting out
individual feeders and transmission
lines, in case of trouble, without
ail citing other lines. Oxide 6lm
lightning arresters have been in
stalled as additional protection to
the high tension lines.
The completion of this work
which includes the transmission
lines and power station at Ashland
will represent an investment OF
more than $500, 900.
