Thirteen Miners EntOmbed In
a Living Grave About
Noon Tuesday.
NINE BODIES RECOVERED.
Others Still IN the Mine-Ali are
Likely Dead-Only One
Man Saved.

The most distressing accident
which has ever occurred on the Mar.
quette Iron Range took place at Ne
gaunee Tuesday when, in the noon
hour, q cavern occurred in the shaft
of the mine entombing many work
men. During the day 30 miners
work in the shaft where the acci-
dent took place, but over half of
them climbed the ladders to the sur
face to eat their lunch in the day
light. While they were engaged at
the opening of the shaft, terrible
roar and crashing below gave warn
ing of the accident, and Of the awful
danger Of those below. The alarm
was given and the work of rescue
was at once commenced.
The accident took place 500 feet
below the level, and Investigation
showed that it was impossible to get
nearer than 80 feet TO the entombed
men. The work of rescue was COM
menced with will and Angelo Re-
carlo was taken from the mine alive.
The dead body of Jacob Hunlalla
was then recovered 1t was
hours before the work of the res
cuers was rewarded by the discov-
cry of another body. All night and
all morning they worked with des-
perate energy in relays. Five dead
bodies have already been taken from
the mine, and six remain to be re-
covered. The rescuers have water
and quick sand to contend with and
the hope of saving the lives Of those
who are still entombed has almost
beenabandoned Nevertheless every
thing possible will be done, and the
work of rescue Is being directed by
the officials of the niue, who at once
hurried to the scene of disaster on
receiving news OF the accident.

TerrOrized the Inhabitants Of q
Little Village Near
Sault Ste. Marie.
NEARLY KILLED HIS WIFE.
BY PrOdding Her With Red-HOt
IrOns-Also Tried to Chop
Her Head Off.

A horrible atrocity, which will
likely result in death, was per-
petrated Monday night at Garden
River, Canadian Indian reserva-
tion twelve miles from Sault Ste.
Marie, according to dispatch from
that city. Joseph Buzenaw, a half
breed, loaded up with frewater,
went on a rampage, terrorizing
half the Inhabitants of the village,
and wound up at home. He gave
his wife terrible beating and then
burned her side and face with red
hot iron.
The poor woman, shrieking with
agony, managed to escape from the
house, crawling on her hands and
knees. She had not gone far when
the drink-crazed brute followed her
with an axe and tried to chop off
her head, but was prevented from
striking more than one blow, by his
sister-in-law and other help, which
had arrived. The woman had re-
ceived glancing cut from the ak
and was picked up senseless and COW
cred with blood. Buzenaw was over
powered and was taken to the town
hall, whore he was locked up.
Soon after he broke down the door
and again went to his home, where
he attempted to cut his wife s throat
with butcher knife. He was fought
off by attendants and then escaped
across the river to Sugar Island, on
American territory, where he is
supposed to be wandering in the
woods 1t is said that Buzenaw s
wife cannot live.

LARCENY OF A WATCH.
Stranger Committed to Jail for
Thirty Days.

Cyrus B. Ferris and George
Henderson, two strangers, were
arrested Saturday last upon
complaint Of Robert Lindahl, of
Skanee, charged with the larceny
of a gold watch.
MIR. Lindahl is proprietor of the
L'Anse 81 Skanee stage line, and il
appears that the strangers stopped
at his place of residence at Skanee,
so as to be in time to take the stage
for L 'Anse in the morning. When
they left the watch was missing.
The defendants were tried in
justice court in this village Tues
day. Henderson was acquitted,
but Ferris was found guilty and
sentenced to pay a fine Of $40 and
costs, or in default thereof, imprison-
ment in the county jail for thirty
days. He was committed 10 Jail.

Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance
Company Decided
To DO So.
ANNUAL MEETING TUESDAY
Company Had 112 Members,
Only 81 Of Whom Paid
Last Assessment.

At a meeting held in the Town
Hall in this village, Tuesday, the
charter of the Farmers Mutual
Fire Insurance company, of Alger,
Marquette and Baraga counties,
was surrendered to the state
authorities. This was the annual
meeting of the company, and the
members present decided that it
would be better for all concerned
to discontinue doing business thar
to go on in the way they have
been for some time past, which
would only result in bringing the
organization into debt. At the
meeting held Tuesday, there were
about dozen members present,
mostly from L'Anse and Skanee.
The Farmers Mutual Fire In
surance company was organized
about five years ago, and had at
tanned q membership of 112. Dur.
ing the past year or. more lack
of interest in the organization
seems to have been the rulewith many
of the members, as will be clearly
shown by the fact that out of a
total membership of 1l2 only 81
paid the last assessment. The
affairs of the company were kept
in shape by few of the members
who had its welfare at heart.
There has been only one fire loss
on property risked by the organiza-
tion during the FIVE years of its
existence, small building owned by
Capt. w. Been, at Skanee. If there
had been more losses, it is not un-
likely more interest would have
been shown by the members, also
creating a tendency to make
prompt payments.

At meeting of L'Anse Lodge,
No 445, 1. o. o. f., held Saturday
evening last, the officers recently
elected for the ensuing term of six

than usual Importance in the annals
OF the local lodge. Aside from the
installation ceremonies, three new
candidates were given the initiatory
degree. After the work in the
initiatory had been performed, a
banquet was served TO the members
at the Thomas House, which the
boys heartily relished. Many we're

BROKE THE RECORD.
January Term Of Circuit Court
for Baraga County Lasted
About Two Hours.

For the past year or two circuit
court business in Baraga county
has been gradually diminishing.
At the October term, court lasted
only one day, but the January
term, which convened at the Court
House Monday, broke the record,
there being practically no business
at all.
Court opened at 10 o'clock in
the morning. There was but one
case on the calendar-a civil action.
A jury had been drawn, but before
the day for opening court they were
notified not to appear.
The one lone case was called and
arguments made on a point of law,
and was then continued until the
April term.
Court adjourned shortly after
noon, the term lasting practically
about two hours.

caliar rough cough. Give Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon as
the child becomes hoarse, or even after
the rough cough appears, and it will
dis Pc! all symptoms of Group. In this
