1t seems the McAllisters also have been
receiving unwelcome attentions from a
group of local rats looking for winter

short time ago, these rats stopped their
visits and the McAllibters would find
their bodies with the heads off lying
in the yard. They finally discovered
what had happened. The fawn would
lie in wait for the rats and as quickly
as they came toward the house would
clip their heads off with his hoof and

rule of gun safety.
2. Garry only empty guns, taken
down or with the action open, into
your automobile, camp and home. Do
not load your gun until you are &C.
tually in the field and hunting unload
it the moment you leave.
g. Always be sure that the barrel
and action are clear of distractions.
In heavy brush or snow open the action
and glance through the barrel oc-
casionally.
4. Always carry your gun so that you
can control the direction of the muzzle
even if you stumble. Keep firm grip
on the small of the stock-you wouldn't
merely balance stick of dynamite on
your shoulder.
5. Always be sure of your target. If
you can't be sure, don't shoot.
6. Never point the gun at anything
you do not want to shoot Keep the
muzzle of the gun pointing away from
any part of your own body and from
any other person, especially when load
ing, unloading, taking off the safety
or working the action.
7. Never leave your gun unattended
for moment, unless you unload it
| first.
8. Never climb tree or fence with
loaded gun. Put your gun through
or over the fence, then pick it up from

9. Never shoot at a flat, hard sur

have to have liquor while in the hunt

guns. Injured feelings are easier to
repair than injured bodies.

HIGH SCHOOL WILL

Members of the Ely high school pub

of Miss Mama L. Forbes, have written
themes as a class project to be sub
mitted in the sixth annual radio edu-

The subject used is Tracking Down

DREAMS INTERPRETED
BY "DREAM BOOK" AT
ELY PUBLIC LIBRARY.

Are you one of those people who
believe in dreams?"
If so, are you certain that your in
depreciation of various types of dreams
is correct according to the accepted
scientific analysis of them.
The Ely Public library, this wander
ing reporter discovered, just recently
purchased book entitled 1.-THE Great
Dream Book, With Lucky Numbers" by
Madame de Barsy, which contains sew
eral hundred pages of standard ex-
plantations" of various dreams with
accurate lists of lucky numbers"
Thumbing at random through the
book, we discovered that if you dream
of beans, whether white or green, they
are sign of financial losses or illness.
Unbroken eggs, on the other hand, seen
in dream are an omen of good luck,
while broken ones signify trouble ahead.
There is a marriage and many gay
moments in store for you if you dream
of musical Instruments To dream you
are a widow or a widower is a promise
of some great satisfaction coming. And
so on, with every type of dream tab
ulated in alphabetical order so that ii
can easily be found.
AS to the lucky numbers" each
dream has certain numbers referring
to it that are lucky for all purposes
For instance, if you dream of animals
3, II, "a, and SO are lucky for you.
This is just one of the many interest
ing books that can be found on the
shelves of the library.

The company employed an average OF

The information of Mr.. Gillmor shows
that the salvaging operations will throw

great as that produced by Minnesota

ARROWHEAD TO
WIDEN PROGRAM
Broad Aim for Development
of Industries, Says New
Association Prexy.

According to w. A. Putnam, president
of the Minnesota Arrowhead associa-
ton, greater emphasis will be given to
development of industries, particularly
forestry and fabrication of agricultural
products, in the 1889 program of the
association.
Mr. Putnam, in explaining the plan
stated that the tourist recreation phases
of the associations efforts will in no
way be sighted or minimized, but
greater attention will be focused in
telling the nation of our manifold
qualities as a center for diversified
farming, wood processing, manufactur-
ing and trading.
There are scores of shops and plants
turning out goods which are becoming
in greater demand and it is the en-
enlargement of these enterprises which
will receive greater attention" he said
He cited the variance of industries
many of them coming into greater
prominence, such as pottery making in
Moose Lake, processing of fish liver oil
in the Lake of the Woods area, peat
digging and packing in several parts Of
the Arrowhead.
The Arrowhead IS rich in resources
Mr.. Putnam emphasized. 1--WE have
here the facilities for both winter anc
summer sports, a play ground anc
business center which is both bene-
fetal and profitable to ourselves anC
those who come here. 1t is on this
basis that the association will proceed.
Exhibited now in the industrial rooms
of the offices of the association are such
commodities as wood pulp and paper
products, paints and varnishes, coffee
roasted and packed here, bread, mea
and allied articles, tools, fish liver cap.

this year that says when a ball is
kicked by defensive team player it is
automatically dead. Two separte clip
ing penalties on Itasca were called, all
at the same time, but neither one was
enforced. They would have brought the
ball to the point where the penalty
was inflicted, disallowing the score.
Most of the game was played in
Coleraine territory, with Ely threaten
ing to score all of seven times, three
times via the air, but the gods said no.
Except for the score, the winners
crossed Ely's 30-yard line but once and
that was in the final minutes of the
game. Ely'S offense received a severe
blow when Stoll, halfback, went out at
the start of the second quarter, after
playing about four minutes, with an
injured ankle.
Ely turned in great defensive game
and with a few breaks would have
brought home the bacon. Ely marked
up nine first downs to six for Itasca.

The National Lumber Manufacturers
association has sent out notices to the
effect that the storm on the eastern
seaboard has raised havoc with the
numbering industry and that the timber
blown down and which must neceS-
sarily be cut will glut the market.
This, coming in addition to the strike
of last year in this section, does not
look too promising for the industry IN
our vicinity.
In the eastern part of Massachusetts
more than two billion feet of timber,
mostly pine, is down. In New Hamp-
shire more than billion feet, probably
1888 900 900 feet of pine, 233,0OO,OOO feet
of other softwoods and 212,000,0O0 feet
of hardwoods are down, an estimated
total of 1858, 10000 feet of merchant
able timber.
Northeastern Connecticut lost from
800 to 4OOOOO,0OO feet and three counties
in southwestern Maine sustained dam
ages of between 20 and 300 million
feet, mostly pine. Maple forests in
Vermont suffered uncountable damages
The above figures do not include ma
tional forests in which the damage Is
estimated at between 800 and 400 mil
lion feet.
Uprooted in September, these trees
will be salvagable until the early sum-
mer of 1899 without material damage
to sap. Because many trees were
broken rather than uprooted, there viii
be considerable loss factor even if sal
wage is immediate. The mechanical
difficulties of salvaging total o.
4500,O00,OO0 feet of timber are Stagger'
ing.
The immediate concern is to protec

Windows Too Clean
Many Birds Killed.

Buhl-So scrupulously clean are the
windows of the county court house at
Hibbing, that partridges and hundreds
of other birds are killed annually from
crashing against the heavy plate glass.
Harold Weinberg of the clerk of court
office found partridge Monday on the
side steps as he was on his way home
to lunch. The big, plump bird waS still

Weinberg said that every year hundreds
of birds kill themselves by flying against
the windows. Quite frequently game
birds are picked up.
