Accidentally Killed.
Charles Corro,un Killed By a Fall
ing Tree V1tA0M
Warning.

While working in the woods near a
miles north of Merrill, Mr.. Chas. Cor
coran, of this city, was killed by fall
ing tree Monday, March 7th, 1892. 1t
appears that two careless Finlanders
felled tree and never gave an alarm.
Mr.. COrcoran stood with his back to-
ward the choppers and was busy load
ing logs when the falling tree struck a
small Birch tree which threw it one
side striking Mr.. Corcoran between the
shoulder and hip telling him to the
ground and killing him instantly. This
act Of carelessness on the part Of the
choppers is made worse because a few
days prior to this calamity they felled a
tree upon pair Of oxen killing them
both For the last act of carelessness
they have been arrested to stand trial
for murder.
The remains were brought to this city
on Tuesday of last week attended by his
brothers. Mr. Charles Corcoran was
born on the 10Th day of November,
1857, in st. Catherine, Canada. He
came to Grand Rapids with his parents
in 1875, and has resided here ever since.
He has followed logging ever since he
has been able to do work of any kind
and was regarded as frst-class woods
man. He was awful careful and trusty
himself and accidents was unknown in
his camps until this winter Unskilled
labor in the woods, logging, often
proves disastrous as it has in this case.
Funeral services took place last
Thursday morning at the Roman Cath
olic church, Rev. Beyerle officiating.

THE VETERANS HOME.

Senator Joseph H. Woodnorth
secretary of the soldiers home at
Waupaca, in making his report this
morning scored some of the enemies OF
the home who created SO much trouble
in the legislature last winter and came
very near defeating the appropriation
bill pending before that body. The
report said that all those who have
ever visited the home, including United
States Inspector Averil, had nothing
but nnstinted praise for the management
and for the kindly care being taken OF
the veterans. After quoting from Gen.
Averill's letter, the report said
Such endorsement from those con-
petent to Judge is very pleasing to us
and hardly agrees with statements
made a year ago" The report said
that the home was never in prosperous
condition; that the So per week allowed
by the state for each inmate was not
sufficient to support the institution.
He proposed that the legislature be
asked for a contingent fund to be used
for the purpose of repairs to buildings,
etc The cost of maintaining the home
for the year was 1904. The cost OF
subsistence was 1l,ISO, making the
per capita cost of subsistence S65. The
cost per capita of clothing for the
inmates was $5.63. The total cost OF
maintenance per capita for the year
was Sl44S4, an average per week OF
?2.7S.
The number Of pensioners in the
home is 10, and the average pension
per month is S949 The number OF
| inmates is 2i4, of whom 146 are males
and IS females. The average age OF
the males is 81 and of the inmates who
are wives, As, the widow inmates, CO..
There were four deaths during the
year and the per cent of deaths to
population is 2 l4-55, the smallest death
rate of any state or national home
