French Taught In sixty Lessons


Mr.. l.. l.. Herla, formerly of Paris, who
has been here giving lessons in French
since last winter, feeling that but few per.
sons have time to study the language
thoroughly, but desire only to be able to
hold conversation in that language,
has prepared course, consisting OF sixty
lessons, which will enable the student to
make use OF the knowledge he or she ma
acquire from the very beginning, and so
that at the end Of the course any atten-
tive student will have comprehensive
idea, il not complete knowledge, OF the
language, and will be able to express
most OF his own thoughts in the French
language.
The fee will be 80 cents week, and for
which two lessons will be given. The
course is intended for adults, but young
people having a knowledge OF English
grammar will be admitted.
As it proposed to start the first week n
October, persons DESTROYS of Joining the
class are invited to leave their names
with MIR. Herla, corner OF Calumet and
Third street, Laurium, before the 25th
inst, so that arrangements can be made.
1t is Mr.. Herla's intention, If sufficient
number OF persons from Red Jacket join.
to take room in the village. That and
the hours OF attendance will be made to
suit the convenience of the majority.
Mr.. Herla will also continue to give
private lessons.

voters deeming it necessary TO express
their opinion on the matter. The small

a certain degree, by the fact that many

the election leaves things exactly as they

ONToNAGoN. MICHIGAN, SEPTEMBER IL.
Very little groceries or eatables OF any
kind have been received by the relief com
mittee during this week. Wednesday a
car load of chairs and tables was received
from Grand Rapids and several stoves
from the Peninsula stove company, OF
Detroit. The same day Mr.. Sawyer in

from the relief committee at Calumet, per
Fred Mackenzie, $1,000, which brings
up the total cash on hand 10 the relni
fund to S6,420
lt was the intention OF the relief com
mittee TO keep the greater part OF this
money for use among the destitute and
needy this fall. IA there will be scores who
cannot go out of town and who have no
means OF support or sustenance, but as
groceries are needed now, the committee
has been compelled to spend some money
in purchasing the same.
great many OF the people living IN
the tents have homesteads with comior-
table shanties thereon and these people
will go out to them as soon as they can
receive supplies and little more bedding,
etc. However. some trouble is anticl'
pated with a number OF foreigners, living
in the tents. They have so far shown on
disposition to help themselves, let alone
offering their labor TO othersin the build
ing of shelter for the winter and as they
are now well fed (the people here saw
better than they ever were before } IL is
expected that they will strongly object

by the militia men, who took him 20 bis

condition and the.uext day be was told
he could receive no more supplies, and

From the above it would look as if the
relief committee at Ontonagon had pro-
posed 10 hang on to the money cOntribu-
tion so as TO help the sufferers during the
winter. This we imagine was not the in
tention OF the donors, who had sent
money instead of supplies, so that the
reEei committee there would be able TO
PURCHASE Just what they wanted, az they
certainly would know more about the inn
mediate wants OF the people than those
at a distance, who might, without con-
sultation together. have sent up a super
abance OF one sort of provision, while
other necessities would have been entirely
oyerlooked-but seeing the money was
sent the relief committee can scarcely ex.
pect outsiders TO send up both money
and provisions and the relief committee
should therefore, expend the money they
have on hand for the immediate relief OF
the sufierers-but they should insist upon
the single men clearing out and seeking
work elsewhere as soon as possible II a
small place like Calumet and Its vicinity
can raise the amount they have, it does
seem that the great State OF Michigan
should have collected a much larger sum
than appears TO have been done.
