Phenomenal Tire Sale
Held at Ely Garage

The special tire gale OF the Ely
garage during the last week has
shown what results may be obtained
from advertising in the White Pine
News, and the further fact that wher
real bargains are offered there Is
real money in Ely and White Pine
county to scoop them in by the car
load. The sales have been simply
phenomenal since last Sunday morn
ing, when the announcement was
made. Automobile. owners seem to
have bought for a year ahead and in
doing so they have taken advantage
of the dual fact that they were get
ting the best brands on the market,
such as the Federal. Brunswick. Dia-
mond and United States. and thai
the prices made by the Ely garage
were 10 per cent lower than n
other cut prices offered In this part
Of the country.
The sale will continue until after
the next payday, which Is tomorrow.

Appearances Indicate
Foul Play

The body of the unidentified man
found on the Beverly bridge has
been taken in charge by the coro-
ner at Ellensburg. In a letter to
the Spokesman, Mrs. Grace SIN.
clair. postmaster at Beverly, says:
There was absolutely nothing
left on the BODY IN the way of mon
ey or papers and it looks as if he
might have met with Ioul play in
the yards at Beverly and the body
thrown from a train crossing the
bridge. in the hope that it would
fall into the Columbia river. There
was freight train out that even
ing carrying at least three tramps.
However, the body just missed 60
ing into the river and the half of
one hand was cut off. Otherwise
the body was not mutllated.
1.-The man wore good, fairly
new. leather jacket, soldier trous-
ers underneath overalls, light hat,
good high boots or packs, was light
complicated, Swedish type, weighed
about 100 pounds and was between
"a and % years old.
He did not have the appearance
OF being broke, in fact. he looked
like some well-to-do rancher's boy.
He was playing pool in BornfieId's
in the early evening, SO | am told,
so he must have had money then.
He had put on an old reddish
mack over his jacket to ride in
and there were mittens in his peck
cts; also grocery list bearing the
name Mrs. Roberts and that was
absolutely all there was left IN his
pockets. There are several Rob-
erts' near White Bluffs and Wah-

new RECORDS EXPECTED
FOR IRON ORE SHIPMENTS

DULUTH, May 19:-Encouraged
by reports from the lower lake
shelters that iron ore Is being melt
ed on a larger scale than had been
anticipated, controllers of the Lake
Superior mining district and its kin
dred industries are looking forward
to a season of new records.
Everything depends upon the de-
mand for ore from the Lake Erie
ports. but with the dock stores dim
inishing sharply under the heavy
consumption at the smelters, district
operators are confident of q rushing
business.
Experts who last winter estimated
The output for the district at between
$1,000, 900 and 60,000,000 tons have
raised their maximum estimates s.
000,0 900 tons. In case this latter
figure Is reached there will be a new
record for annual shipments from
the Lake Superior mines.
With the Lake Superior docks al
ready piling up with cargoes for the
freighters, experts assert there is suf-
f1cient equipment and man-power
available to force the movement past
the 6~4,000,000 ton record mark set
in 1916.
New ships have been added to the
Great Lakes fleet, increasing the sea-
board capacity several million tons.
Operators T reported to be hir-
ing all available laborersNfor work i
the huge open-pit mines which sup
ply most of the ore.
