THEIR PERIL GREAT
NINE FISHERMEN AFLOAT ON A
BLOCK OF ICE.
4 Strip OF Ice Breaks Loose From
n shore and Is Carried out Into
the Lake by the Wind Escape
Almost ImpOssibIe-At Least Nine
Men Known to BE on the Flo

Menominee, Mich, Jan. rs. - Nine
men are clinging to q block of ice n
few rods square that is being driven
out of Green Bay into Lake Michigan
by a fierce southerly gale. The wind
is blowing thirty miles an hour and
carries on a zero temperature and an
occasional snow squall. The men are
fishermen, clad only in the none too
heavy clothing worn while tending
their nets, and unless the ice foe has
been blown against Chambers island
or Green island there is little POSSIBLE
ity that they will live long.
At . o'clock in the afternoon n strip
of ice about ten miles long broke from
the west shore and was carried rapidly
toward the east shore of Green bay in
the direction of Dearth's Door. When
the Use foe left it's anchorage twelve
or fourteen fishermen were on the ice
tending their nets, but were so far
away from the crack that by the time
the alarm had been given the crack
was so wide that they could not es-
cape to the shore. Signals of distress
were displayed but it was some time
before they were discovered, and in
the meantime the ice had swept well
toward the middle of the bay. Two
yawlS We're manned and four men
were brought to the shore, but the 9th
ers, fearing that help could not reach
them from Manistea or Menominec.
had rushed to the eastern side Of the
ice, evidently intending TO attempt to
escape to Green island and fkus reach
Chambers island or Door bluff. on the
east shore of Green bay. AS the dark
ness settled down. however, the ice
could he seen carrying well into the
lake. and fishermen think escape is i'm
possible.
Estimates of the number of men on
the ice foe vary, some saying that
fully forty were carried out into the
lake. But careful inquiry reveals but
nine men missing. Besides the loss of
life that now seems certain to result
from the breaking up of the ice fish
crmen will lose nets, fish shanties and
implements valued ut many thousand
dollars.

On account of the bad wea ther. there was only small crowd present ito greet pr. Simmons last night when he arose. What they lacked in attendance, they made up in attention.
 He spoke on a different subject to the one he intended to, as all present were Christians.
 He took for his subject. Love" In a very impressive and forcible manner he spoke of Gods love to us. He spoke of the difference between a person that had love in his heart for his fellow men and one who had no love in his heart for his fellow man. Some of his illustra tions were very striking and impressive. He said love was long-suffeling, but got mad win righteous anger.
