The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1896-10-03
HOughtOn Was the Scene of a
Terrible Tragedy Thurs
day Evening.
GEO.C.sHELDON THE VICTIM
Felix DumOnthier, the Murderer,
then Ended His Own Life
by Drowning.

Houghton was the scene of a
shocking tragedy Thursday evening
at 6:30 o'clock, whereby tGeorge G..
Sheldon, a prominent resident Of
that city, met an untimely death at
the hands of his ,coachman, Felix
Dumonthier. The particulars of the
sad affair, according to report, are
as follows:
Several days ago Mr.. Sheldon had
some words with Dumonthier, who
had been in his employ for several
years as coachman, and the latter
struck Mr.. Sheldon a severe blow
Later Mr.. Sheldon had the man ar
rested for assault and battery, which
resulted in his being fined. Thurs
day evening at the hour above
stated, it is claimed that Dumonthier
met Mr.. Sheldon near the Houghton
end of the Portage Lake bridge, and
asked him to pay the fine, which re-
quest was refused, whereupon
Dumonthier drew a revolver and
| fired several shots at close range,
each taking effect. Dumonthier
then ran onto the bridge, and when
about 100 feet from shore jumped
over the railing into the water,
thirty-five feet below, and was
drowned.
Mr. Sheldon was at once taken to
his home, only a block away from
the scene of the shooting, and
surgical attendance promptly Sc
cured. On examination it was
found that his jaw was broken, one
arm was paralyzed, bullet had
lodged in the brain and another had
passed through his neck. Death
resulted at o'clock the following
morning.
Deceased was 81 years of age, and
was brother of Carlos d. Sheldon,
the Republican nominee for con
gress from this district. He was a
man well known throughout the
upper peninsula, and had a host of
friends who are greatly shocked at
| his tragic death.
Mr. Sheldon S youngest daughter
was married Tuesday of this week,
and left for the easts on her wedding
tour His eldest daughter, Mrs. S.
j. Bowling, left Thursday for her
| home in Detroit

CONDENSED NEWS.

The bursting of two lakes at st.
Annton, Va, Tuesday resulted in
the death of many people. The
damage to property is great.
A New Orleans dispatch states
that disastrous hurricane swept
over Brunswick and along the
Georgia coast Wednesday morning.
Millions of dollars worth of proper
ty were destroyed and many lives
were lost.
Railroad communication with the
eastern and middle parts of Florida
has been re-established and harrow
ing tales are being received of the
recent storm. Itappears the storm
left the Gulf and struck the coast
about at Cedar Keys, which is said
to be almost completely wrecked.
From there it swept in northeast
erly course, its diameter being about
forty miles, across the state, doing
fearful damage. The wind is re-
ported to have reached velocity OF
100 miles an hour. 1t is impossible
to learn how many persons were
killed, but it is believed that fully
one hundred lost their lives and
many others we're injured. Much
damage is reported from Jackson
vile, but no loss of life.

A NAVY TO BE PROUD OF.
Ex-President Harrison Says We
DO Not Intend To Again Leave
the Sea.

Ex-President Harrison, in writing
of This Country of Ours in Octo-
ber Ladies Home Journal reviews
our navy department, and tells of
the reconstruction of our new navy.
I'VE had no great ship yards, and
no ship builders with the capital,
the skilled labor and the experience
to fit them to enter this new field, ;"
he writes. John Roach, however,
had the courage to believe that he
could create a competent shop and
build the new vessels. He put
everything at risk and should have
had better treatment from the gov
ernment than he received. He was
fairly entitled to some of the profits
that have since accrued to those
who have walked in the path he
blazed. We have now, both on the
Atlantic and Pacific, ship yards and
builders capable of constructing any
ship and Of putting into her any
machinery of the first efficiency.
We have also great steel plants,
costing millions of money and ca
pable of making armor plates of the
highest resisting power, and steel
gun forgings of the highest quality.
These great ship yards and steel
plants are convincing proofs that
the supremacy we once had i'm
wooden ship-building may be at
tained-if it has not already been
attained-in steel ships.
Practically all of this work has
been done within ten years, and the
secretaries of the navy who have
presided over and directed it; the
constructors and ordnance officers
of the navy who have furnished the
plans and designs, have executed
these plans are entitled to the high
est praise. We have always had n
navy personnel to be proud of, and
we now have navy to be proud
of-not finished navy, but one on
the way. A new battle-ship is "a
new argument for international ar
bitration-for you must have noticed
that peremptory demands for a
fixed amount of damages are usual
ly made upon nations that have no
battle-ships nor torpedo boats. 1t
is not our plan, | am sure, to match
the great navies of Europe. We
may safely keep our register of YES
sells well within theirs; but we do
not intend again to leave the sea. Z"

SCHOOL NOTES.
Progress of Pupils in Our Pub
lie School.
(Correspondence.) }

"Religion morality and knowledge being
necessary to>-a good government and the
happiness of mankind schools, and the means
of education shall forever be encouraged"
These words are from the ordi-
nance of 1887. under which the
Northwest Territory was organized.
Michigan is part of that North
west Territory, and since our schools
have become the pride of our state
we realize the wisdom of the men
who drafted this ordinance Too
much cannot be said in favor of good
schools, and when we consider the
relations existing between them and
our country's future we know the
schools cannot be too good. A good
education fits the boys and girls for
the best and noblest positions in
life. and is the stepping stone to
success, prosperity and influence.
No other investment pays the state
or town so large dividend as does
the investment in good schools; for
good schools produces good citizens,
and good citizens strong and last
ing government.
