ON A REEF.
The Freighter Colorado on One
Near Eagle HarbOr.

The large freighter Colorado bound
down with cargo of flour went on
the reef where the barge Pickands
foundered two years ago, near Eagle
Harbor, at Z o'clock Monday morn
ing. At the time there was no sea
on, but thick smoke had settled
over the lake. There is no imme-
diate danger of the boat going to
pieces unless a severe storm sets in
which would likely make a total
wreck of it. Word was telephoned
to Houghton for tugs and the life
saving crew were also called for.
The latter left as soon as word
reached them.
Word from Eagle Harbor Tuesday
morning said that the tug Sheldon
with the life saving crew arrived
there Monday and the crew Of II
men were taken off by the tug, only
the captain and mate remaining on
board. kilograms were sent to Du-
luth for lighters, when the cargo,
which consists of 80 carloads of -four,
will be taken off. At the time the
Colorado went on, the officers had no
idea that any damage had been done
as they Immediately backed her up
about 40 feet when she settled in
about IA feet of water. The barge
Osceola, of the same line, which was
at Hancock, went over there Monday
afternoon and returned. Ever
since the Colorado went on, the lake
has been very calm and should it
continue so until the cargo is taken
off there is some hope of saving the
boat. The cargo is fully insured but
the owners of the boat carry no in
surance on her. Hancock Copper
Journal.

Warden Northrop before his removal

the deputy warden with hammer,
but was foiled in his foul purpose.
For that crime he got ten years

The assault on Northrop is only

capades since he has been behind the

1t is for one of these wounds that

the latter shot him and brought him
down when he was scaling the

Michigan a Summer Resort State.

Michigan Summer Resort State.
An official directory, showing
briefly but strikingly the advantages
of the numerous summer and health
resorts, the mineral springs and the
excellent sanitaria in Michigan, is
soon to be distributed by the state
board of health.
In accordance with resolution of
the legislature, the board has caused
to be made a thorough inquiry into
the subject of Michigan S resorts, and
has collected information that will
be of great interest and value to fu-
ture tourists to this state, including
increasing numbers of persons resi-
dent in other states who in every
hot summer seek healthful and
pleasant surroundings further north; /;
and the publication presents the
Great Lake States immense resort
capacity in very favorable light.
Beginning at the southeastern
corner Of the state, making Detroit
the initial point, in a series of short
descriptive articles, the text of the
pamphlet follows the lake shore up
to Mackinac Island, treats of the
upper peninsula, and then deals with
the resorts on the Lake Michigan
shore, following southwark to the
southwestern corner OF the state.
The island resorts are next taken up,
then the mineral springs, and then
the sanitaria. The pretty Indian le-
gends and traditional history of each
locality has been briefly and interest
ingly chronicled, the information is
accurately, tersely and impartially
stated, and facts are presented in
such readable manner as to make
the work worthy of great com
mendation.
Among the prominent features OF
the directory are the numerous
pictures of beautiful localities, pret-
ty or historic spots. marine views,
and many of the beautiful places so
plentiful in this state, making an at
tractive and very interesting publ
cation. Before the next hot season
the directory will be distributed
among sanitarians and prominent
public health men throughout tue
United States and neighboring prov
inces-authorities, in their several
states and provinces, on conditions
OF healthful existence, also to public
libraries and wherever it is likely to
do the most good in spreading
Michigan S fame as health resort
abroad in the land.
The typographical work on this
Summer Resort Directory" is com
mendable; and altogether the state
board of health is to be congratulate
ed upon such satisfactory effort to
place Michigan at the head of the
states as desirable health and sum
mer resort.
A limited number of copies can be
had by citizens of Michigan interest
ed in the subject by sending the
stamps with which to prepay the
postage, which is six cents on each

Governor Pingree was renominat-
ed by acclamation at tie Republ :
can state convention held in Detroit
Wednesday. His reform ideas to-
wards regulating the alleged in
equalities in taxation were heartily
commended in the platform adopted,
and many members of the Republi-
can party who heretofore had not
been in accord with the governor
joined in the cheering when he APP
peared and made "a characteristic
speech Of acceptance.
For lieutenant governor, Hon. o.
w. Robinson, of Chassell, Houghton
county, an ardent Pingree state
senator, was nominated after a
close contest with Gerritt j. Dieke-
ma, eX-speaker of the house of
Mr.. Robinson re-
ceived 597 votes and his opponent
47S.
The upper peninsula was also
honored by the selection Of Horace
NJ. Oren, of Sault Ste. Marie, for
the Office of attorney general. Mr.
Oren would undoubtedly have had
a much harder struggle to win the
nomination had it not been for Hon.
Chase S. Osborn, the recognized
king of politicians and eloquent
orator of the upper peninsula, who
insisted upon the nomination,
which was made almost unanim-
ously.
There was no opposition for the
Office of auditor general, and the
denomination of the present in
cumbent, Hon. Roscoe d. Dix, was
made unanimous.
One of the great questions brought
before the convention to decide was
the contest between the so-called
Sheldon and Stephenson sets of
delegates from Marquette county,
which resulted in the Sheldon dele
cation being seated, and Sam
Stephenson and his wouldbe dele
gates were given the go-by.
The convention also unanimously
elected General Arthur F. Marsh,
