duced by Mr.. Chandler in the U. s. Senate
q few days ago, say they never heard of but
one of the nuu er )us men whose names are
signed to it. Judging from some of his pre-
vfous acts,it Is by no means improbable that
Mr.. Chandler manufactured the signatures
TO the petition referred to. He was forced
to acknowledge that he was the author of
the "rot and filth" contained in the endorse
ment on the petition. Mr.. Chandler never
loved the South, but he has nursed his wrath
against her to keep it warm ever since Sen

yarions dimensions were out on the
the lake, a number of which took part
in the race. Between twelve and one
O'Clock the storm which had threaten
ed for an hour or more broke upon
them and for a few minutes stiff
breeze prevailed and considerable
water fell. Hardly craft trimmed
sail to meet the storm, and when the
squall struck the fleet it caught all
sails spread and the inevitable follow
&c. Three of the boats went over in
an instant. These were the Roamer,
Laura and AlabatrosS, all carried
heavy ballast and sund at once. The
tug Goodman saw the accident and
fastened to the rescue and soon had
the crews of the AlabatroSS and
Laura on board but those on the
Roamer went down with the boat.
This craft was sailed by her owner
Mr. c. Under, and with him was Mr..

DIED..

Though not unexpected. our people
were none the less sorrowful when II
was announced Friday afternoon of
last week that Mrs. Harriet u. Smith
was dead, because almost everybody
knew her and all who knew her loved
here. Mrs. Smith was born at Brock
vile. Ont, in December. lssya and
would therefore have been 20 years
old next December. While a mere
child her parents movrd to the states,
and in 1855 they settled i'll Superior
since which time this has been her
home Her mission on earth was to
make people happy and to make her
self useful in which she succeeeed In
an eminent degree, for she was an
earnest christian woman and showed
her faith by her works and such lie
could have but one result. She has
been very feeble for the last five or SIX
months, and a short time ago went
over to Duluth to visit her son, Geo.
NJ. Smith, who with Theo. Il. Smith OF
Superior are the only children left.
She was laid to rest in the cemetery IN
this city bv the side OF the husband and

were very impressive. A good woman

A little before noon last Tuesday,
while at the West End, Judge Clough
fell in with professional pickpocket.
The Telegram tells about the affair as
follows:
Judge Scion H. Clough was prepar-
ing to take the 10:15 train for Central
Park this morning. He carried fine
pair of spoon oars ard was endeayor
ing to get them into the smoking car
A man unknown to the judge was
standing Oh the platform and CON-
menced to assist him. Soon the Judge
saw the man was hindering instead of
helping. The man at first apparently
was anxious to get into the car. Sud
denly he turned and made for the plat
form. The judge saw at once into the
game, and upon putting his hand into
his right hand trousers pocket found
his purse gone. He at once cried out:
That man has my pocketbook," at
the same time catching hold of him.
Others, too, caught hold of the person
designated. By this time the train
had started and in the excitement
those on the train tried to pull him on
and those on the platform pull him off,
with the result that the mans two
coats were torn into pieces. He had
on two coats, the inner one light
summer one which was tucked out of
sight. He tried TO step out of the
outer coat and get away-an old trick
with Decentralization success,
however. Ed. d. Rubyour, Constable
Idell and others took a hand in the
scrimmage, and overpowered the man
after considerable struggle. During
the melee a pal of the thief threw red
pepper into the faces of those strug
ling and escaped.
Henry Victor got bad dose into
his right eye and was rushed into the
office of Drs. Common & Wylie for
treatment. Breakman George Jean
son received quite quantity in both
eyes. The pocketbook was picked up
on the track about twenty feet behind
the train. There was in it besides pa
pers, a twenty and two-uallar bill.
Judge Clough gave the twenty to the
man who found the book.
