A GLOBE reporter last evening made a
great discovery. He ascertained the name

up, of whom mention has already been made
in these columns. The name of the captive

the "Hawkeye'' state, and last evening

ty, Iowa, came to the city to bring him back

that Homer is the guilty party, and from the

if he is innocent. The case comes up this

THE Republican city convention will be
held at 10 O'Clock to-day. The delegates are
in dilemma. Wyman has already virtual
" knocked the wind out of Pillsbury, so to
speak, and what to do now they find it ex-
tremely difficult to decide. The
party certainly cannot afford to entertain
compromise just at this time, as, in that
event. the party will become so thoroughly
disorganized that it will be impossible for it
to rally for the fall campaign. They must
nominate an out and out Republican ticket.
The following from the Journal expresses
the idea:
1.-the Republican party of this city has been
forced into such attitude by meddling busy
bodies this spring. said q prominent Republican
to-day s'that it must either abandon its organiza-
ton and retire in the breeches pockets of few
sefappointed regulators of public affairs, or else
nominate straight ticket, and make the best
fight in its power. If it must go down, let 1t go
down with colors flying

New telegraph companies seem to be
springing into existence quite rapidly. AS
will be seen by reading the proceedings OF
the city council, that the Chicago 81 North
western Telegraph company presented an
ordinance granting franchise, etc. This
makes the second ordinance of this character
now before the city council. Chief Engineer
stetson, however, alleges that the Rapid
Transit company has no wires strung in the
state, and states that he believes there is no
intention on the part of the company to
make honest use of the franchise should the
council pass the ordinance.

A Serere accident.

Yesterday afternoon as J. II. McNally was
oiling machinery in the st. Anthony mill,
his right hand got entangled in rapidly re-
volving belt and before he could extricate it
the arm was terribly mangled, the greater
portion of the muscles being lacerated and
torn off so that amputation of the hand may
be necessary. The victim OF the
sad accident had quite narrow escape from
being drawn into the machinery and meet
ing horrible death. He was brought to the
Office of DR.. Ames where he exhibited much
nerve while under treatment. The injured
man has numerous friends in the city who
will be sorry to hear of this catastrophe.

The Prohibition Contention.

The prohibition convention held two ses-
sions to-day and adjourned subject to call.
Provision was made for permanent central
organization with subsidiary local alliances,
in all the towns of north Dakota. Aside from
general organized effort for the suppression
in the traffic in intoxicating liquors the chief
aim was to be to secure prohibition when a
state was formed. The convention was not
largely attended but much earnestness was
exhibited

Coz. K;no,s Suit.

Col. VIM. s. King and wife have brought
suit against Phil Remington, ct a., of New
York, to recover the property known in the
colonel's more prosperous days as Lyndale.
He decided the property, some 1,500 acres to
secure loan of $780, 1000. The growth of
Minneapolis has made the property worth a
million, or more, and as the Remfngtons
long since sold enough to pay the debt, Col.
King now sues for the remainder, which will
make him comfortable if he secures it.
Equity seems to clearly demand his success
and that peculiar institution known as the
law ought to give it to him.

Weekly Recie,c of the Flour Production IN
Minneapolis.
Northwestern Miller.
There are no new features on the platform
to note, the monotony of low water and gen.
eral dizziness remaining unbroken. The
water power of last week averaged very fair
ly, and those mills in operation did passably
well; they did better than the mills whose
turn it is to run this week are liable to do.
There are some which run three days and
then change off with others, while few run
a week at a time in changing about. The
flour production of last week was 60, 900 bbls.
10000 bblsi per day-against 81, 1908
barrels the preceding week. Of this amount
the Pillsbury mills turned out fully 40 per
cent, using water power for about one half
of their product. The outlook Tuesday was
favorable for decrease in the production
this week. On Monday and Tuesday the
water was extremely low, and the mills at
the lower end of the west side canal, being
in jangle and all trying to run at once,
were not able to do much of anything. But
late Tuesday new arrangement was enter
ed into by these mills, whereby they take
turns with one another in running twenty
four hours. To-day "wednesday the stage
of water is considerably improved, and
more favorably. The situation with the
-four trade is not changed, unless it be that
there is an improvement in the demand, ex-
port inquiry being on the increase, while the
eastern demand is fair.

shipments from this city for the week end

County Fair.

The seventh annual fair of the Cheboy
gan County Agricultural society will be
held at the fair grounds Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday of next week.
Elsewhere in this issue we give the pre-
MUM list, to which we would call the
attention of all interested in the fair.
There is no reason with the abundant
crops of all kinds this year, why this fair
should not be made the most seccessful
one yet held by the society. If the far
mers will do their best to make it sue
cess by liberal contributions Of their
farm products for exhibition we will
guarantee that the citizens Of ChebOy-
gan will do their share, by liberal pa
tronage, to make it success financially
The officers have been taking consider
able interest in it for some time past
and are doing all they can to make it a
grand success, but with all their efforts,
unless they are backed up by the farm
0rs Of the county, they cannot prevent
it being failure. Let all take hold de-
termined to make the fair credit to
Northern Michigan.

Those Corn Hills,

The Northwestern Lambsrman, Of
Chicago, copies our article in regard to
the discovery of Charles Wilson. of Free
dom township, Of the evidence Of corn
being planted in early days in this Sec
ton, and comments as follows:
The discovery he has made suggests
an interesting question in regard to tree
ern peninsula. Nowhere in the country
is there more prolific and rapid growth
of rock or sugar maple. 1t is likely that
the remains Of the old corn fields that
Mr.. Wilson has found is evidence that
the forests in that locality have grown
more rapidly than is generally supposed.
The corn hills spoken Of are possibly the
signs of cultivation in the days Of the
French missionary occupation in that
region, when Marquette exercised the
function of spiritual and civil dictator
ever the Indian tribes thereabout. Corn
hills are found in the woods all along
the lake shore from ChebOygan to Grand
Traverse. The Indian method was to
make c0nical hillock, in the top of
which the corn was planted. These
''hills" were used for the same purpose
year after year, and became 80 hard that
they have endured to this day. Apple
treas, YET in bearing, spindling up like
forest grOwths, as If reaching for suA-
light and free space in which to spread,
are also still standing. How far back
these agricultural and horticultural en-
beavers date 1t is impossible now to. de-
tsrmins. Often the corn hills are found
in little circular cleared spaces, devoid
of giant tree growths, but often again
they are scattered where the tall trees
stand thickly. Viewing the subject in
any historical light we may, 1t Is GER
tain that the prolific forests Of the
northwest counties of the lower PENN
sula have developed very rapidly, show
ing the adaptability Of the soil and eli
mate OF that region Cor zee growth.

en- health. Mrs. Allen had been gradn-
ally sinking beneath the attacks of a
fatal disease, but her condition had not
been such as to cause her friends imme
diate alarm. On Saturday, however,
she became suddenly ill and passed
away on Sunday afternoon.
The deceased was born at MendOn,
Monroe Co., N. Y, IN 1923 and was mar
ried at that town in 1848 to Abram Allen
