Bayfield,, Wis, March 25.-The an
cient town of La Pointe, on Madeline
Island, the largest of the Apostle group,
is to be resuscitated politically. A half
century ago it was the metropolis of
Lake Superior.
Father Marquette is even said to have
built the first church more than 200
years before. About forty years ago
Bayfield, was made the county seat of
La Pointe county, and since then the
island city dwindled in Importance, hav-
ing only a handful oe fishermen as res
idents, and the old church as an attrac-
ton.
Most of the Apostle Islands have now
been formed into one town with the
ancient name and town capital revived.
The first election for town officers will
be held in April, and election excite
ment already runs high.

tette of centuries has been abridged.
Quaint and pigmy craft like those in

his name. The day was perfect The
land hung low aud indistinct in the
distance all around the fleet, except
out toward the sea. From that drec-

was an odd and miniature ship. The

the Spanish squadron moved slowly on,
while the guns of the fort, without
waiting for the American colors to be
saluted first, kept up noisy booming,
On board the men of war the interest
was intense, The bands upon the flag
ships played the Spanish national airs.
The Rcina Regenta and the Santa
Maria, reaching the end of the line,
cast off the vessel which Columbus
made famous, and presently the hand
full of sailors upon the curious craft
began to spread her sails to the wind.
The canvas, dark and dlscolored like
an ancient parchment, bellied ont To
the wind. From the bow the waves
danced in glittering burrows. The sun
fell upon the Santa Maria's SAILS and
envcloped her in golden glory. Her
dark bronze guns, hardly larger than
turkey quilts, gave forth salute,
moment later, having reached the iiect,
the sailors of the Santa Maria unwound
the thick rope which served as II cable
for the anchor and tossed it over the

was not anchored, but rocked on the

running SO high that tugs cannot get

ashore. The house over the crib at the
terminus of the new water works tun-

fear is felt for the lives of the twenty
men there. Five or six can be seen
clinging to the machiicry and umbers
of the crib, the water sweeping over
them, 1t is thought others may be
dead in the air lock below, for lack of
fresh air. Tho lifcsaving crew have

the calamity that has bciallcn the

beginning of April there have been
a total of 100 earthquake shocks,
averaging five every day.

to the shocks as they were for the
most part light and did no damage.
When the terrific shock came re.
Gently, however, the city Of Iante was
practically wholly destroyed. There
are not in the city fifty houses that are
safe for people To- live in.

their lives in the disaster and this list
is likely to be added to when the ruins
are cleared away, If this is ever done.
