FOUR HEROES DROWNED.
The Schooner shupe Wrecked near Port
Huron and -Four Resouers Drowned.

The schooner William Shupe was
struck by the storm on Lake Huron off
Sanilac. She battled against the waves
and the wind for several long hours,
but at last struck on "A sand reef off
LalSeport, six miles from Port Huron.
The crew was in great peril and
volunteer life-saving crew was organ
lied at Port Huron TO go 20 the rescue.
The waves were running mountain
high in gale blowing 40 miles an
hour, when Capt. Henry c. Little, Bar
ney Mills, Angus King, VIM. l.. Lewis
and Daniel Lynn, all of Port Huron,
were towed in yawl boat to within
half mile of the Inflated Shupe. They
reached the vessel safely and had made
line fast and were about TO take the
crew off when the yawl caught in or
under timber projecting from the
side of the schooner and a wave
tossed the yawl over in an instant
throwing all into the water,
One of the men, supposed to have
been Mills, disappeared at once, while
the others began striking out for shore
200 yards distant. Little, Lewis and
King soon succumbcd, but Lynn, who
is "A robust young man, had more en-
durance and swan for nearly half
mile, the gale carrying him down the
lake. He also would have succumbed
had not aid reached him from shore in
"a most heroic manner and just in the
nick of time. ChuDb Randall, 20 years
old, river reporter, and Charles Con-
key, who were watching the at
tempted rescue from ashore waded out
into the lake against the heavy swells
about IS feet and reached Lynn just as
he had become exhausted, he falling
down unconscious when the young
men approached him and he had Co be
dragged ashore. He would have been
among the lost had the two brave
young men been 30 seconds later in
reaching him.
After this catastrophe the life-sav-
ing station at Sand Beach was notified
and the crew came down by special
train. The tug Thompson towed their
life boat up TO within half mile of
the wreck and in two hours the life
savers had taken all of the crew, six
persons, off the Shupe and taken them
TO shore. The were Nelson Little,
Port Huron, captain; William Brown,
Port Huron, mate; james Blair, Port
Huron, sailor; Reddy Curry. Oswego,
y. Y, another sailor, name not
learned, and Mrs. Johnson Port Huron,
cook. The crew were in excellent
condition. considering that they were
exposed to a fierce gale "a hours. The
Shupc was owned by her master, Mel
son Little, and was valued at about
80, 900 with no insurance.

4 man strikes a red
pepper in his soup he receives an
impression. and impressions are
lasting. How can we impress 1T
upon you that it is really your duty
TO trade with us, that our prices and
service are better than elsewheref
Perhaps we can impress you IN this
way: Money talks, talks cents too.
1t persuades the stubborn and con-
vinces the skeptic. We know of no
such pleader as a LOW PRICE
and we have tried to make its voice
heard In every nook and corner of
our store. 1t would only tire you if
we gave you a list of the many
different articles we have just receiv-
ed per "Senta" from England, Amy
Turner" from New York, and the
"Rithet" and Australia" from San
Francisco, but we nave the goods,
and if you call on Us you will get an
impression or two. First, they are
FIRST-CLASS and second, that our
prices are LOW.
For that tired feeling-not Hoods
Sarsaparilla, but more exercise-a
gun, q rifle, or a boat if you take it
out Of doors, or dumbbells, chest
weights, ETC., if indoors. Our shot
guns range from S12 to S65 in price,
but we find the $50 gun gives just
about the right amount of exercise
for this climate-that is we judge SO
from the way they sell. After using
one of our Winchester Military
Rifles till you can get inside an s.
inch bulls eye, s out of 10 shots, you
will find not only is the tired feeling
gone, but you have learned to be
cool and careful-things that will
serve you well in other ways than
rifle shooting.
Have you heard of the story of the
Irishman? He bought apples for one

he made one per cent. profit. We do

If you prefer boating and yachting
TO shooting, you will find we have
most of the material needed to
either build yacht or boat or keep
it in repair when built, and you do
not have to buy any more than you
need, as we have everything handy to
retail as we'll as wholesale.
