LAKE MICHIGAN ALWAYS OPEN.
How IL is Made Navtgabie All the
Year Around.


Navigation on Lake Michigan Is navar
closed. Steamers run back and forth
across the lake and between tho ports of
the west shore OF the lake during the
entire winter with remarkable regular
ity. The first attempts at winter navi-
CATION ON the trans-iake routes were
made by the Detroit and Milwaukee
Railroad company and by the now de-
funet Engelmann Transportation com.
pany many years ago, and the success
OF winter ventures became established
as the character of the steamers was i'm
proved and developments were made in
marine enginery. Vow winter nayiga-
ton proceeds almost uninterruptedly,
and the new car ferries steam back and
forth with little regard for weather. or
for ice. The success of the car ferries
on Lake Michigan and the car ferry
which defies winter in the straits OF
Macl1inao is probably the cause of the
announcement that negotk tions are in
progress looking to the construction of
ice-breaking freight steamers that will
enable their owners to keep them in
commission on the Lake Superior and
lower lake route during the winter.
The report is without foundation.
There is vast difference between the
navigation of Lake Michigan from one
shore to the other, and along the west
shore, and the navigation of the great
lakes throughout their lengths ami
through the inter-lake channels. Ice
breaking is expensive. and occasionally
the ice foes defy the crushing powers
of the best of the so-called iee breakers.
One of the car ferries w; recently
stalled by foe near Menon nee which
defied not only the steamer, lat the ex.
plosive power of dynamite. The trouble
Of winter navigation on the chain of
lakes would occur in the in lake
channels and in the canals. Owlrg to
the clogging effects of the ice it We ul1
be almost impossible to operate can
during midwinter.
Another and very serious bar to
general lake navigation in winter is
the prevalence of snowstorms, during
which nothing whatever can be seen.
Snow is more obstructive to the sight
tLi.n Il fog, and during a driving snow
storm it is impossible to see anything
ahead, even in the daytime. Winter
navigators on Lake Michigan, who are
never out of sight of land for any great
length of time, experience their ehiet
annoyance from snowstorms. They
manage to steam into port when ~ o"
is flying thick because of their familiar
ity with the route, but they OCCASION
ally get into trouble while they are
wrapped in "the tlunultuous privacy Of
the storm"
1t does not follow, by any means, thai
because winter navigation is successful
on Lake Michigan it ear tc made sue
cessful in the upper and lower iak'
service. Milwaukee Winconsin

Although my crew has signed arti-

Fatally Burned.

Mrs. Michael Carroll was fatally
burned at Virginia City last Satur-

her clothes caught fire about the
skirts in some manner, which she
seemed unable to explain, and the
lower part of her body, from her
ankles to her waist, was burned most
shockingly. Mrs. Carroll was alone
at the time and WAS not found until
next morning when her husband
who is night watchman, returned
from work. A doctor was summon
ed. but could do nothing, and sh'
died in short time.
