Negaunee is making determined
effort to capture the fremen S
tournament for next year and has
already gained the support of the
Marquette, Michigamme, Houghton
and Hancock companies. The
strongest argument in favor of Ne
gaunee is that the city has never
entertained the firemen yet, and it
would be but right to give them an
opportunity to do so in 1902.
All ladies intending to attend the
firemen's tournament are requested
to send their names at once to Thos.
Conlin, secretary, Crystal Falls,
Mich, so that accommodations may
be reserved for them. The tourna-
ment association would prefer to
have the ladies arrange for lodging
in parties of two or more. In en-
gaging quarters it is only necessary
to say how many persons there are
in the party and give one name.
Upon arrival in Crystal Falls go
Immediately to the information
bureau and call for your lodging
check.
The copper country papers OF the
past week contained accounts of the
arrest of Frank Bergeron on a
forgery charge. Young Bergeron
is 18 years of age and formerly re-
sided in L'Anse but removed to
Calumet with his parents some
three or four years ago. At Calu-
met he was employed as waiter in a
restaurant, and it is alleged that he
and another employe of the restaur-
ant endorsed q check Of the Mohawk
Mining company for $50, payable to
the order of one James Hammel.
The check had been carelessly left
in the restaurant by Hammel, who
had taken a meal there
a short time before. The
case against young Bergeron
will doubtless be dismissed, as it ap-
pears that the other fellow actually
did the signing. Both are under
4.
