pEvouREp THEIR DOGS

OF STARVATION.
Discovered Where Foreign
Killed and Ate Their
Dogs-Ten Thousand People Must
BE Fed and Clothed.

Milwaukee,, Wis. Nov. 2S.-Goy. Peck
and the relief party who took the two
car loads of supplies to the star ying MN
ers at Hurley, Wis, have returned 10
this city. They found the most nrgent
need for the food and clothing. and. it is
being distributed to the suffering peo-
pie by the local relief committee. Gov
Peck will send supplies weekly, to the
distressed people until the people Of the
towns where the restitution ex-
lists pay their annual taxes.
When the township officers will assume
the burden. 4 careful Investigation re-
veals about 1000 helpless people in Wis
consin and 1900 in Michigan, all in
the small mining towns on the Gogcbic
range. At least half Of these people
will have to be fed and clothed until
March or April. The condition of the
army of unemployed in the Michigan
peninsula is much worse than across the
line in Wisconsin. . In Ironwood alone
1900 people were found yesterday ut
terly destitute. The hope vas expressed
that Gov. Rich: appeal for aid would
bring supplies not later than to-day.
The town officials and the citizens have
exhausted all public and pretty nearly
all private means, and will now have to
depend on outside aid. The condition of
these people, mary of whom have had
no work for six months, is pitiable. A
local official said that the Finnish.
Cornish and others of the foreign miners
had been driven to such desperate straih,
that they had killed and eaten their
dogs. The weather is below zero. There
is two feet Of snow on a level, and a
furious snow storm has been raging since
Sunday evening".

In Memoriam.

At meeting of the F'iremen, hele
at Hancock, Monday, October Is, the
following expressions of sympathy
were adopted:
The departure of Brother Geo.. E
Clark was a shock to the entire com
munity, for he was greatly loved and
respected for his sterling worth. The
family is completely paralyzed with
the sudden affection. He was de
voted, selfsacrifcing husband and
father. Iu the recent departure from
the mortal form of one of the officers
and members of our society, we, the
members remaining,
Resolve, that we sympathize deep
ly, and feel our duty incomplete un-
til we in assembly express our SYM
pathy with the family bereft.
Resolved, that we tender our heart
felt coincidence to the stricken wife
and loving sons. May we ever strive
to emulate his devotion to duty and
truth, as we shall ever keep his mem
DRY in our hearts.
Resolved, that copy of this reso-
luton be sent to the afflicted family,
and spread upon the records of the
department, and one published in the
county paper.

rescued Unconscious From wolves.

Joseph Heider, a homesteader, who
lives near Iron River, Wis, had thrill
ing experience with wolves few miles
from Iron River Sunday evening. Hell
der had been out hunting for deer pre-
sulnably, and his gun was charged with
buckshot. While scambling through
some bushes one barrel of the gun was
discharged, and volley of shot entered
his left arm and right thigh. At the
time of the accident it was very fortunate
for him that he was near some houses Of
other homesteaders. After the discharge
Of the gun he lay unconscious on the
ground for three-quarters of an hour,
and after gaining consciousness his cries
attracted the homesteaders, and they
reached him just in time to save him
from most frightful death. The
wolves, which at this season of the year
are very vicious, had gathered about
him in large numbers, and they were
making preparations for great feast.
Heider was taken to Iron River, where
medical attendance was given him.
His wounds are not thought to be fatal.

A BOGUS AMERICAN.

Claimed to Be a Military Medical Exam
liner, but the Police Nabbed Him.
The police have been earnestly seeking
and have just found an impudent swim
der, who has been trading, with censid-
cradle profit, for some time past upon
the good name and sound business credit
of the United States legation. He calls
himself DR.. Akin Of the Second United
States Dragon guards, and he pro-
duced, whenever asked for credentials,
which was rarely the case, a gorgeouslY
printed document signed 81. Fl. Bays
ard" ce11 tifying that the bearer had been
appointed medical officer and military
attache of the American embassy, at a
salary of $3.50 per annum, terminable by
six months notice on either side"
The scoundral had had uniform as gro
tesque as that of the doctor Of the Amer,
lean Dragon guards might be expected
to be, but clothed in it he managed to
captivate the fancy Of several respecta-
BILE ladies.
Akin was arrested yesterday at the
conclusion of a meteoric visit to Bourne
mouth. He was received in that pleas
ant town with distinguished honor, as
he passed himself off as an inspecting
officer of the royal artillery. Such was
his consummate impudence that he actu-
ally did inspect the local artillery and
afterward the coast guard, highly COM
mending the efficiency of the latter body
and promising to forward favorable re-
port to the admiralty.-New York Suns

Resolutions

Adopted by the Congregational
church and society of Hancock,
Mimi, ON October p, 1898, in mem
ory of Geo. E. Clark.
Our community has lost an upright
citizen, an efficient public officer in
the death of Mr.. Geo. E. Clark.
While we, as citizens, mourn his loss,
we, in one especial sense, as a church
and ecclesiastical society shall miss
his wise counsel, his consecrated SER
vice. During his service as trustee
and treasurer and Sabbath school
teacher we learned to value him, and
at time of special need our brother
could always be depended on. Our
church shall often wish he were with
us; therefore
We, the members of the Congrega-
tional church and society, do adopt
the following:
Resolved, that while we reverently
bow to the will of God in all things
believing that all things work togeth-
er for good to them that hear love
Him, yet nevertheless in the death OF
Geo. E. Clark our church and society
have lost staunch champion of
truth, a wise counselor and faithful
Christian worker: that we are made
to feel the abundance of gratitude we
owe him, and that this heartfelt graf
itude kindles within us deep SYM
pathy with his bereaved family, who
while sorrowing his loss, shall in COM
mon with us be inspired by bis noble
example to more faithful service in
the church militant that we may be
filter to meet our brother in the
church triumphant.
Resolved, that a copy of these reso-
lutions be inscribed on the records OF
the church. and copy be given to
Mrs. Clark.
