for rape.
Judge Sloan then sentenced Nj

why sentence should not be passed
upon him, he replied that be had not
Judge Sloan, who sat in the case. then
reviewed the facts as they presented
themselves during the progress of the
trial and said that owing to one nit
igating circumstance connected with
the matter, he would not sentence
him to be hung but would sentence
him to be confined III the penitentiarv

When sentence was pronounced upon
Burkholder he turned a shade whittier
and moved uneasily in his chair but
said nothing.

convicted Of stealing chickens, were
the last Of the prisoners sentenced on
Saturday, and they were given one
year each in the House of Correction.
Both are physical wrecks caused by
the use Of morphine. Jane Diehl,
Otter she had been sentenced, became
very angry, and it required all the
moral suasion the sheriff could com
mand to prevent her from abusing

1t is now ten days since Frank Novack

The Officers were at fret OF the opinion
that he was in hiding somewhere in the

LAURIUM VILLAGE, March 4, 1897
To the Editor,-With Hamlet the ques
ton was Ito I've or not to be-; but with
The citizens of Laurium the question ID
sewers or no sewers? There Is probably
no doubt but that some OF the citizens OF
The village are in favor of having a sewer,
but from the outside it looks az il the
present administration, from president
to the bottom OF the line were bound to
have il. regardless of the wishes OF the
majority of the people. One might think,
from the treatment the seventies received
at the caucus on Saturday evening, that,
we're they able to take hint, they would
have concluded that the majority oil the
taxpayers, at least, think that, however
desirable it might be to have a fine sys-
TEN OF sewerage put in, the financial con-
dtiou of the village does not warrant
the expenditure at the present time.
There il no doubt but that for many
reasons n sewer would be very desir-
able Improvement for our village and
many arguments might be advanced in
favor of il; but the great majority OF our
ooople are Of the laboring class who have
recently built homes OF their own, which
in very many cases, yes, the majority oi
cases, are not yet paid for. and it does
seem az il we might be allowed the bless
ing OF seeing them mostly paid for, il not

And. besides it takes nearly all the reve

Another reason why we do not want il

per,ence which has come to the ears oil
NEWS reporter and which happened in
this way:
About 2 o'clock OF one OF our late ex-
tremelv cold nights the alarm bell OF one
of our local doctors rang which awak'
ened him with rush from a sound sleep.
Putting his head out of the window he
saw a man and asked what was the mat
ter. The mans daughter was at the
point of death and he implored the doc
tor with all kinds OF tales to hurry. He
didn't say what was the matter, but
wanted him to hurry. He was soon on
the way to the mans house, walking at
a swift pace, when they met the brother
and then the mother OF the sick child
running down the road also looking Tor
hedoctor.
The physician made as much haste as
possible but the mother was sure the
daughter would be dead before his ar
rival. When be finally got to the house
he found the daughter sitting up in bed
and enjoying a hearty laugh at the ex-
pense of the doctor as well IA the family.
She explained that she had dream
and thought she was jill OF diphtheria.
In her sleep she called out, go for the
doctor. quick, lam dying" She repeated
this once or twice and aroused her father
who did not 10 * TO see what was the
matter, but rushed for the physician with
all possible speed.
The doctor prescribed single: used
often and externally.

They Discuss the Fire
Alarm System of
Our City.
They Will Provide Alarms


The Red Jacket village council met in
the council room last evening instead OF
Tuesday evening, which is the regular
m onthIy meeting. The principal matter
OF Importance which the council passed
upon was in regard to putting hre
alarm bells in all the residences OF the
fremeu. There are thirteen members oil
the village fire department, who receive a
slight compensation every year Tor their
services. The pay il small. but still
enough TO keep the fireman ready to re-
spond TO an alarm. However, great
trouble has been experienced because the
fireman did not always hear the alarm.
On one or two occasions since the
teams hrye been kept in the same build
ing as the fire engi inc and hose cart they
were ready to move to the fire before
more than one or two firemen had put
in an appearance. This was especially
true at night alarms.
There are alarm bells in the residences
OF the engineer and assist ant engineer
and in the home of the chief and these
persons are always promptly on hand.
II the alarm bells are put IN the homes
of the fireman, az soon as the alarm il
turned in at the box, it will awaken
every firemen on the force and they will
have ample time to get to the epgine
houca nr Tho aeenp az the fira
The council have been considering the
proposition as it was in line with the
other improvements in the way OF pro-
lection from fire, which has been insti-
tuted 10 the village OF late and last night
decided TO give the Calumet and Hecla
company contract for the job.
Supt F. n. Bosson, of the fire alarm
system has always been in favor Of this
move and has always urged it from time
to time When the alarm system is put
in the village of Red Jacket will have one
of the best and complete fire departments
in the Upper Peninsula and the fires that
have taken place since the improvements
have been lie haye proved it's efficiency
Beside allowing the regular salaries
ana che usual batch oi bills, no other
business OF Importance was transacted
The council is having a set Of ocdin
ances W hich have been pass. d by the
village couuclls from time to time reyis'c
as it is the in ention to get a complet,
set OF the village laws compiled in some
sort OF shape go that they could be re
ierred to RS authority in such matters
The ordinances have not yet been put il
shape and the council could not TAX
action in that regard last evening.
