FOUR THE IRONWOOD TIMES LOOK1NGJLACKWARD News Items of General Interest Taken at Random From Our Files of 40, SO, 20, and 10 Years Ago Saturday May 22, 1897 Our people will well remember J. Maurice Finn, who ran for congress In this district a number of years ago against Sam Stephenson. Finn afterwards went west and engaged in gold mining and about a year ago was reported to be worth in the neighborhood of $100,000. Yesterday's daily papers contained the intelligence that a suit which Finn had begun about two years ago against Stratton, the owner of the famous Independence and other mines, had Just been voluntarily settled by Stratton paying Finn and partners $300,000. John Mullen, and brpther-ini-law, John Brown, were at Mercer last Tuesday and made a magnificent catch of muscallonge.

The Carey mine, one of the Metropolitan Iron Land company's properties, west of Hurley, employing about 150 men, was closed dowa last Saturday night and the pumps will be pulled. Jake Stein came down from the Mesaba last Saturday and spent a few days here, greeting his numerous friends, and looking over his old stomping ground. Jake says that the Meaaba is much duller than the Gogebic. The city of Negaunee will economize with a vengeance. The council has decided not to renew the contract for street lighting and the city will remain in darkness for the ensuing year at least Hurley's annual wave of morality only lasted a week, and has completely subsided.

A license has been granted to Sodini, who is running his variety in full blast. The town officials over there must be proud of this institution. The local fire department as well as the citizens have cause to fee: grateful for the success of the pre liminary meeting to arrange for the firemen's tournament which was held In the council rooms last Wednesdaj evening, and if it can be taken ai a criterion, the coming tournamen will be as great a success and of ai much credit to our city as the mos enthusiastic Ironwood resident coul( desire.

Saturday, May 26, 1917 The Oliver Iron Mining company is doing everything possible to assist its employes in the planting of gardens this spring, in order that the request of the government for an increased production of agricultural products may be complied with, and also as a powerful blow at the justly celebrated H. C. of L.

"Bill" Carter considered getting out his shovel when that snow storm started. We hear many complaints of the depredation done to the "war gardens" in the city by the "poor man's cow," who is again running at large in the city, owing to the fact that the mayor and council have neglected the appointment of a poundmaster. We had thought that this cow nuisance had been permanently overcome in Ironwood, but it appears to bob up at the first opportunity. This city is altogether too large for a cow pasture, and it is hoped that this state of affairs will be remedied as soon as possible. Daniel Harrington died at his ome on Luxmore street Tuesday morning after a lingering illness.

De- eased was a widower and sixty-one ears of age. The funeral occurred esterday at St. Ambrose church. Lester Anderson returned Wednesday from Chicago, having driven heir Packard car to that place. At Chicago he waa met by his mother and brother, Carl, who proceeded vith the car to Ann Arbor.
