LOST WITH THE STEAMER.
Nineteen Men Carried Down with Burn
ing Boat on Lake Nipissinx.

NORTH BAY, Ont, Nov 0.-Later par
ticulars Of the hurning of the steamer
Frazer on Lake Nipissing have been re-
ceived here. Nineteen of the crew were
lost
The steamer was owned by Davidson,
Hay & Co. of Toronto and was bound for
Franks bay with supplies for the lumber
men. She caught fire about three miles
from Goose island, and q panic must have
nnsued as only seven lives, including the
fireman and cook, were saved out Of y or
2s, notwithstanding the fact that the
steamer carried the usual supply of life
boats and life prcservers and had a large
scow in tow. Captain Carr and Mr.. Doug
lass, the firm storekeeper at Franks bay,
are among the lost
The fire was witnessed from Franks
bay by Captain Burrltt and a young In-
dian.
They Immediately put off in their boat
to the scene of the accident, but by the
time they reached the spot the boat was
burned to the waters edge and the seven
survivors had reached the TOP of the scow.
The engine for some unaccountabie ren-
son was not stopped, and during all the
time the boat was burning she continued
to pillow through the water Some OF the
men struggling in the water managed TO
climbin a boat which had been launched,
but were caught in the steamers wheel
and went down. The hull sank Ia about
25 feet of water. and all that now marks
the spot of the catastrophe is a short piece
of the smokesiack which appears above
the water's edge The yacht Okimawkia-
wa, with judge Dorau and a number OF
citizens on board, has gone to the scene OF
the fatal mishap
The list Of drowned, so far as known, is
as follows: Captain w. Carr, Matthew
Brennan, j. Sutherland. Alf Barban, VIII
liam Storey, Thomas Ashborne, Alexander
Douglass, John Haw Isaac Shaw, John
Smalley, Thomas Massey, Thomas Bowes
James McCann and Tom Sherry. The
numes of five others are not known.

JUDGE G. W. SMITH was unanimously
renominated at the Hill City Republican
Judicial convention on Wednesday.
Judge Smith commands the respect and
confidence of all parties in the district.
He has occupied the bench for num-
Der of years without eliciting word OF
criticism or censure. The people will
certainly give an emphatic expression
in his favor on election day.-Rooks
County Record.
1t gives us much pleasure to endorse
the above, and we do so with personal
knowledge, although Judge Smith does
not preside in this district. In fact he
is our idea of what Judge should be
able, fearless, honest, kind. We would
vote for Judge Smith if he were a demo-
crat, and think we would even if he were
a populist. And the democrats and pop
ulists in his district, many of them, will
vote for G. W. Smith. 1t will be an
honor to all parties to re-elect him this
fall.

THE elm tree beetle, a greedy black
worm, is said to be doing great mis-
chief to the stately old elms, with
which the streets of all antique Con-
necticut towns are shaded. It has
been especially destructive in Hart
ford, Meriden, Bridgeport and Norwalk.
The trees literally are pitted with
them in certain localities, which look
as if they were strung with almost in
Vulnerable little black beads. The
worms speedily strip the trees of their
leaves, which turn yellow and often
fall in showers. Many handsome elms
in the towns named have already been
almost ruined by them, and the daily
press teens with editorials and letters
from correspondents, arboriculturists,
telling how the pest may be destroyed.

LOOK over copy of the Sentinel-the
largest, best circulated, and most closely
read paper published in Ellis county,
and YOU would never SUSPECT IN that
there was dry goods store, boot and
shoe store, or clothing store in Hays.
You would never suspicion there was a
bank, a shoemaker, jeweler or drug
store. You would look in vain for a
lumber yard, a coal dealer or mill. BY
the same token we know there are no liv-
cry stables, no bakeries, no carpenters,
no harnessmakers, no photograph gall
lery, no dressmakeTs, no tallors, no
joints-sad, sad, sad-no tin shops, no
book stores, no barber shops, and no real
estate dealers. There is one lawyer and
one doctor, but we shall fire them next
week out of regard for their families.
They think they can afford to advertise
but they can't. The only people who
can afford to advertise are the oliver
pad" and "lost manhood" manufacture
ers. We have no merCenary interest In
this matter as our paper is being run
purely as matter of relaxation and en-
joyment. But we confess to a curiosity
as to what outside people think of the
town.-Hays City Sentinel.
A paper is simply wasting its energies
under such circumstances ia trying to
do anything for it's town OF community.
We speak of our enterprising merchants
and business men, but our foreign SUBJ
scribers scan our columns to see who
they are or what they are and, finding
them not, decide that we are prevarica-
tors and that the aforesaid "enterpTising
business men" exist in our imagination
only. Actions speak louder than words
and the general make up of paper de-
void of advertisements will outweigh
anything that the jealous editor might
say to the contrary. Almost every day
we receive requests for sample copies
and in nearly every instance the paper
is asked for so that the reader may form
his own estimate of the community.
The county paper is regarded as the sur
est index. Wholesale dealers also write
for sample copies to see if their custom
ers or would be customers are wise and
energetic enough to reach after trade
through the best known and most legit-
innate channels. Wholesale dealers
know that their success is attributable,
in large measure, to advertising and it
would be difficult to convince them that
country dealer, actuated by the ''pen-
ny wise and pound foolish idea" is a
safe man to credit for large bills of goods.
Further, there is not a citizen of our
county who has not discovered that the
liberal advertiser is the liberal dealer
built upon the broad guage and working
along the line of "small profits and
quick returns"

THE following is an extract from Gen,
Caldwell's speech on the trial of Col.
Hughes. Among other specifications he
was charged with disobeying the COM
mands of Governor Lewelling and re-
fusing to eject the constitutional house
of representatives, so declared by the
supreme court,
~ assert again that not one single de-
cided case can be found that says that
an illegal order should be obeyed. That
is only one question in this case for your
consideration and decision. 1t is an in-
suit to this court, that second and that
third charge about giving information
to the enemy? What enemy? The
Douglass house of representatives, the
constitutional house Of representatives,
is the enemy. and the only enemy; but
the question for you to decide is, is this
order legal2
''Now, let us for a momentlay aside all
partisan feeling, Can there be, Task you,
can you conceive of an order so illegal
as that to remove by an armed force the
constitutional House of Representatives?
Supposing Governor Lewelling had said
to Colonel Hughes, There is that fellow
Horton and that man Johnston, they
are worrying me; do not want them
around; go down and remove them
from their bench Is there any man
so blind as to attempt to justify the do
ing of such thingP Suppose he had
said, 'Mulvane's bank has got lots OF
money; we are in need of funds; go
down and loot the bank and this order
shall be your protection Is there any
man who would contend that such an
order should be obeyed? and yet such an
order would be legality itself compared
to an order to invade the sanctuary of
the sovereign people of the state of
Kansas assembled in their legislature
The sovereign and the only sovereign we
have in. this country is the legislature,
because when it speaks the voice of
every citizen, and its behests must be
obeyed. Governors come and go; courts
rise and fall; state officers come and
disappear as figures in phantasmagoria,
but the people, the sovereign people re-
main, and their voice is like the voice of
the Almighty; their command is ire
sistible,"
