Depended on PRAYER.

Miss Annie Knudson, of Manitowoc,
died at the residence of Rev. Mr.. Peter
son under suspicious circumstances, no
doctor having been called, although
she had been sick several weeks. The
testimony at the inquest showed that
she was a member of religious socie-
ty known as the Free Mission, and that
during her sickness she prayed all the
time, believing that prayer would cure
her. The jury brought in verdict that
the deceased came to her death from
unknown causes.

CATION it was found that the unfortu-
mates We're Big Fred the Indian
hunter, and his little German wife
Elsie, whose doings caused such a sem
sation some ten years ago. In those
days the only persons living on Mime
sofa point were old Granny Shultz, a
feeble brother and granddaughter Elsie.
The old lady kept the lighthouse that
commands the entrance to Supe-
rior bay. Her one desire in life was to
make a school-teacher out of Elsie, but
the girl refused to go to school and
spent her time rowing about the lake.
One day she was surprised by her
grandmother lying in the arms of
Fred, an Indian hunter, and they both
fed. Months went past without any
trace of them, and then the old lady
took what money she had and returned
with her brother to Germany. Elsie
and her Indian lover led a vagabondish
life and the past winter have been liv-

caught FIRE on bitter cold night and
the couple persisted amid the awful
