LOSS OF THE MONTICELLO

 Quartermaster Wilson Cook, one of the survivors, was found by the Asso- ciated Press correspondent sick and sore in bed at the hotel. He said the Monticello left St. John Friday morn- ing at 11:15 and steamed through Petit Passage that evening about o'clock. The night promised to be fine and we expected the wind to haul to northwest.
 It suddenly shifted to southwest at o'clock and one hour later the wind was blowing whole gale and the sea was rapidly rising. One sea was shipped forward, cleaning off the for ward saloon deck and ripping open the starboard paddle box. The engineer re- ported the steamer had commenced to leak Captain Harding ordered the Monticello to be put before the gale, but she would not steer. l had the wheel all n;ahl, until a. m. saturday, and the captain and chief officer were in the wheelhouse with me for thirteen hours. During her all night battle with the storm the steamer had come into the wind again. At daylight Var mouth cape was visible distant five miles.
 We tried to get the boat off the wind again but she would not steer and laid unmanageable and leaking badly. The water extinguished the fires and stop ped the engines. Listing heavily to tn tie at II o'clock Saturday morning.
 Life belts were furnished the passen- gers and boats were made ready. The women were put in the after boat. I was in the boat helping them to enter. Captain Harding was standing near viewing the proceedings when I last saw him. The starboard boat was haul ed to the port side and launched from the first boat davits.
 Five minutes after we pulled away the Monticello broke in two. The for ward part sank bow first and the after part stern first. I saw the second boat fill alongside. There were about seven in her and I think the Monticello foun- dered before they cut clear The third boat was the zinc life boat That was also launched from port davits and about fifteen people were in her. They had oars out and were lying near the Monticello. I did not see her after the steamer foundered.
 We scudded for shore, which was reached in two hours with one man bailing. Near the land big sea lifted the boat in the air and hurled it with dizzy rapidity against rock, smash ing it to fragments. The next l knew I was scrambling on the shore.

city provide plenty of room for the api- arist, and this is the case in Chicago. Then, again, the country beekeeper has the advantage of not having to build sheds and fences for his bee col onies.
 One Chicago apiarist, who has sue cessful hives in the city, as well as in California, tells how the bee keeper, city or country product, may adver- tise his honey in a way that deties the newspaper advertising man. His plan is to send out invitations to his friends and the friends of their friends, the local editors and everybody whom he can possibly think of. The guests are invited to attend the "annual har- vest" to bring their luncheons along with them, and spend the day on the farm. They are invited to see the honey extracted from the beehiyes.

 The enterprsing bee man who fol- lows this method it is promised, will readily dispose of his harvest, if he does not dispose of it before the last guest has left the farm at the end of the harvesting day.
 The country beekeeper is ahead of his city cousin in the amount of honey he can harvest. Unlimited space, ab- sence of disturbance of any kind, which cannot possibly be avoided in the city, no matter how far into the

The mass meeting, held last evening,
at the Court House, was a representa-
tive one in every sense of the word.
Out of the 800 people present there
were only about half dozen who were
against the partisan movement and
they could not say why they were
against it, only that they were, on gen
eral principles, The indications are
now that tonight the different political
parties of our city will unite on one
ticket and all pull together to elect it.
This is the time to make start. Do
all that we can this spring and next
year our people will be in shape to run
complete non-partisan ticket. And
then we will all bid adieu to strife, and
bitter feelings and large campaign
fund. Harmony, good feeling among
neighbors and better government of
city affairs will follow.

AN IDEA OF LIFE.

We are told that life is what we make
it, being the first stage of mans exist
ence on earth, who awakens into a real
material world, to discover as he adj
vanees through life's opportunities that
it is composed largely of hopes, fears
and aspirations, with their auxillarieS
of JOY, pleasures and ambitions. We
consider it somewhat of an enigma why
these epochs of every day life are not
more evenly or judiciously divided
among us Can we but wonder if this
puzzle will ever be solved , Our lives
are period of time longer or shorter
and remarkable for events of greater or
less magnitude, through subsequent
years and ages. Many of us live on
hope, it being an impetus to lead and
influence our various steps, through
the visicitudes of life's pathway. Yet,
as time wends its WY silently. quietly
and mysteriously into the dim, dark
vista of the past, do we not. as a class,
more often than otherwise. find our
selves hoping for something brighter

ambition and an mate desire for greater
and broader lives, wishing they were
furnished or filled with more sunshine,
glory and honor, darkened with less

enveloped ere we are aware. finding

WE read, daily, of prominent men of
Wisconsin, passing away from their
earthly homes into the realms of the
unknown. Most of them have held
high and responsible offices of trust
which made them known to the most
remote parts of our great state. For
the moment there is spasm of sorrow
as each one is laid to rest, but outside
of the confines of deceased's home, he
soon passes'out of memory. This will
not be the case with John Maggie, who
died in Manitowoc last Thursday,
will be sincerely mourned for years to
come John was one of the truly great
men of Wisconsin and though his work
was confined to his own city and county,
in newspaper work and editorial affairs,
he had become known, personally and
by reputation, to nearly everybody in
the state. His death was caused from
typhoid pneumonia, contracted while
on a trip South with the National
Editorial Association, recently. Mr..
Nagle was in the prime of life, being
only 80 years of age. His death will
prove a sad loss TO Manitowoc and the
state at large.

Blew the Paint or buildings and Drove
Straws Through Oak Planks.
Jan. 6, was the sixty-first anniver-
sary of the big wind in Ireland"
There have been other big winds. but
there never was one that eQualled the
first one. Births, marriages and deaths
are fixed before and after this big wind,
and there never was a true-born Irish
man who has not heard of the night
Of the big wind"
Many tales have been told about this
hurricane. According to the relatCrs
it came UP about 3 o'clock at night.
It came like summer breeze, but in
very short time it became furious.
Some of the simple people of Ireland
said it was the work of the fairies. who
nad become displeased at the people
So they crawled under the bed and low
cred themselves in wells to escape the
fury of the elements. The next morn
ing they came out to see what the
fairies" had done. They said they
found that every haycock in Ireland
had blown down. They found that
straw had been driven through oak
boards as clean as a carpenter would
declare that a stone as big as
freight car had been blown seven
miles from its resting place. They
found that the waters had been dashed
INTO such terrible state that huge
whales were lying upon the shores or
the lakes, and that sharks and small
fish were found in the forests miles
from theif nome in the ocean. The
tale is told of the sailors who became
Shipwrecked, and landed on the back
of a whale supposed to be an island,
and the wind carried whale and sail
ors to place of safety. Every clock
on the public steeples was stopped. and
The wind blew the whistles on the
boats anchored at the wharves without
an ounce of steam showing on the
gauge. The people who remember this
terrible wind tell how 1t carried the
swords Of the knights and Lords from
the seab0ards and left the powdered
hair of the Queen as natural as the day
she was born, and they say that the
paint was removed from the barns.
leaving the boards as bare as the day
they came from the forest, and rocks
were carried from Mount Chevalier to
the town, seven miles away. Others
say the bells in the churches and
schooihouses clattered as they never
clattered before, and chickens We're
found the next morning without
feather in their tails.
Leaves were found driven into the
trunks of the trees, and corn was found
cleaned from the cob on the stalk.
