After January lst the stamped en-
velopes issued by the postoffice de-
partment will have a red stamp of
exactly the same shade as the car

News of q Rich Strike on the
KnOwltOn Near the Mass I'm
Ontonagon County.
RISE IN STOCK PREDICTED
An Old Mining Man Says 1t is the
Biggest Thing in Copper
He Ever Saw.

News has come from Ontonagon
of a wonderful discovery on the
Knowlton, which is part of the
Adventure property and controlled
by that company, says the Mar
quette Mining Journal of Monday.
Specimens OF the rock which have
been sent down from there are fair
ly impregnated with copper. Local
authorities who have seen them
pronounce them surprisingly rich.
Benjamin Chynoweth, the Oldest
mining man in the district, is quoted
as saying that it is the biggest thing
he ever saw opened up in copper.
Buying orders for Adventure went
thick and fast over the wires Friday
and Saturday. There were num-
ber of orders for thousand share
blocks from people in Ontonagon
county, who are right on the ground
and who ought to know what they
are buying.
The opening in which the find has
been made is described as a tunnel
into the side of a ravine. There is
no shaft at all. The specimens
which have been received are said
to have come out in the very first
blast. Dirt on the surface Of the
rock gives evidence that this is true.
1t is not only the holders of Ad-
venture who are jubilant over this
find, but the holders of the new Mass
Consolidated stock as well. The
reason for their qualification is
found in the fact that the Knowlton
adjoins Mass on the west. The
friends of the latter stock assert
that the new find cannot help but be
u favorable factor for them.
Since the appointment of Thomas
f. Cole to the general management
of this mine many words of com
mendation have been expressed on
account of the choice.
Mr.. Coles appointment is said to
have strengthened the position of
Mass stock. His friends in the iron
business felt confident that he would
not associate himself with proper
ty of small value. By his associa-
ton with the Mass they were led to
have confidence in the property and
subscribed literally to the stock.

Suicide in q Hotel at
Utica, N. Y.
FORMER MARQUETTE MAN.
AID Was Postmaster In Tha
City For Four
Years.

A press dispatch from Utica, N. Y,
dated Monday, gives the following:
When James FL. Read, bookkeepper
in one of the breweries here, opened
his mail today, he found the follow
ing letter:
Sunday, December 18.-Dear
Henry-When this reaches you l
will be dead man in room at the
Metropolitan hotel, Fayette street.
My son is sick in bed in New York
and my wife is in absolute destitute
circumstances. AS the last request

shall have to be buried by the au-
thorities, as have not one cent
But Henry, be on hand, if you can
and see that | am put away decently.
Goodbye and God bless you. Your
friend, LEROY w. INDIAN
Mr.. Read stepped to the telephone
and inquired of the Metropolitan
hotel if Mr.. Midlam was a guest
there. He was told that he was.
Then Mr.. Read told the clerk to send
at once to his room, break in the
door if necessary, and discover the
condition of the occupant. Within
few minutes the answer was re-
ceived that Midlam was dead-that
he had shot himself.
Midlam was about 62 years of age.
He came to Utica from Georgia
many years ago and entered the
Office of Horatio Seymour as clerk.
He became popular and was elected
city treasurer. Finally he went to
Michigan and was engaged in busi-
ness with Horatio Seymour, Jr. and
was very successful there for time.
He was u prominent Democratic
politician in Michigan and was ap
pointed postmaster at Marquette
during Cleveland S first term. Two
years ago he engaged in some un-
fortunate speculations and lost his
property. The letter to his friend
explains the rest He wrote letter
similar to the above to another
friend and one TO the authorities,
His last occupation was as travelling
salesman for Parsons q Co., to-
| bacconiSts Of New York,
l.. W. Mdlam was well known in
Marquette, having been resident
of that city for the last fifteen years.
He was born in Georgia and served
J in the confederate army, and after
! the war moved to New York state
and lived long time in Utica. He
| came to Marquette to take Il posi-
ton with the Michigan Land & Iron
Co., as auditor of the Marquette Of
flee, and held that position until
President Cleveland's second term,
when he accepted the postmaster
| ship. which he held for four years.
After he left the post Office, he went
into the insurance business, but did
not continue long, and about three
months ago went to his old home in
New York He stood very high in
Masonic circles.

u. II. FOR BURROWS.
Lieut.. Gov. Dunstan Tells How
Nine-TenthS of the Republi-
cans Feel.

The Detroit Tribune states that
Lieut.. Gov. Dunstan remarked while
in that city this week that nine
tenths of the Republicans in the
upper peninsula favored the re-elec-
tion of Senator Burrows to the
United States senate.
"And | understand, he said,
"that most, if not all. the Republi-
can members of the legislature elect
are Burrows men. Members from
the copper district are going to
stand by Representative Chamber
lain for speaker of the house"
The lieutenant governor will be at
Lansing during the senatorial fight.
He thinks Lieut.. Gov. elect Robin
son will make an excellent presid-
ing officer Of the senate. He says
that the upper peninsula people are
making money hand-over-tist on the
copper mines. He came to Detroit
to discuss some mining property.
He is particularly interested in the
Adventure mining property, in
which he has invested.

the time of his arrival here the doc

learned that he had an honor await

ferred by Gov. Pingree. 1t was the
position of assistant physician at
the Ionia prison, but the doctor de-
clined, preferring to remain at the
Winona. When Col. Petcrman was
asked regarding the message he said
the governor had been very kind to

something for the surgeons of that
