ESCAPE OF SEN. HINNI'S PARTT.
Thrilling Experience on the Northern
 Coast of Lake Superior.


 Jack Fish, Ont, Aug. 12.-Senator NJ A. Hanna and the party of pleasure seekers accompanying him on a cruise of the Great Lakes had a thrilling ex- perience to-day on the wild northern coast of Lake Superior Their yacht, the Comanche, a staunch steel vessel, went aground in Nipigon Strait, and for sixteen hours stuck fast in the rocks that abound in that region. The accident occurred at midnight last night, when the senator and his guests were comfortably slowed away in their berths There was considerable confu- sion for a time, but the captain soon found that the yacht was not in a seri- ous position. The Comanche was haul ed into deep water at o'clock this af- ternoon and resumed her journey with all on board well. Beyond a slight leak the yacht was not harmed. The mis- hap was caused by the pilot getting the yacht out of the channel.

Thousands Of men are afraid of the light

Any sort of wasting disease may lead to
consumption. Any slight disorder of the
respiratory organs may easily develop
it. Weakness of the body, emaciation,

WASHINGTON, March GA formal
application for resembling part of Presi-

%, last has been filed at the interior
department by Senator Wilson OF
Washington, supported by Representa-.

reasons why the signers believe the

prejudicial to public interests, but asks
for immediate restoration of only one
of the reserves, the Washington forest
reserve, the largest in the state and
embracing S,294,5 GA acres. All the
others in Washington, however, are
also pointed out as Objectionable. The
application contends that many mill.

unnecessary as the rainfall is ~
