Twenty Lake Michigan Fishermen May


Perish Unless Quickly Rescued.
Menominee, Micn., March 3-About
20 fishermen are in peril on a large
body of floating ice that suddenly
broke loose Monday afternoon between
Bailey's Harbor and Chambers Isle.
A strong west wind has been carrying
the ice foe out toward Lake Michi-
gan, and it is feared that unless the
men are quickly rescued it will be
broken up by the waves at Deaths
Door, the entrance to Lake Michigan.
Three men managed to get off the ice
foe at Fish Creek. and three were
rescued farther down the bay. It is
reported that several more were res.
cued last night just as the ice was
bearing down on Deaths Door. Cap
tain Hill, of the Hill Steamboat Com
pany, with a picked crew, has gone to
the rescue. Among the men reported
to be in danger are Henry Woodbeck
and his 12-year-old son, and Captain
Peters, of Menominee, and Joseph Ma
perzilsky, the lighthouse keeper.

Capturing National Convention.
Pittsburg, Pa, March 4.-William ].
Bryan, in an interview last evening,
denied that he will lead a revolt from
the Democratic party in case the Gold
Democrats capture the national con-
vention, as was reported yesterday
from New York. It was said he would
bolt the convention and lead an indie
pendent movement
Mr.. Bryan said that not only had he
not made any such statement. but
that the contemplated action was I'M
probable. and he did not discuss i'm
probabilities. Never will you find the
Gold Democrats capturing any Demo
cratic convention of national import
ance. The very idea of it is absurd"

Alleged Horse. Thief Caught.

A man named Bowie and Rob-
ert Delmore of Eagle Greek, so
miles southeast, were brought in
Saturday by Henry Brown and
Sam Simerson and placed in jail
on the charge of horse stealing.
They were given a preliminary
hearing before Judge Peacock
and Delmore was discharged and
Bowie was bound over to the
grand jury in the sum OF $500
and in default of same he was
placed in Jail. The mare and
colt were stolen from Charley
Hamilton's place some weeks
ago and the first that was seen
of them they were on Bowie's
place on Eagle Greek. They be-
longed to T. T. Deel of Douglas,
Arizona and are very valuable.
The mare was valued at $500
and the colt $1,000. Sam SIM
ersol has been working hard on
the case as Deel told him he
would give him the mare if he
would catch the thief and recover
the mare and colt. When stolen
the mare and colt were not
branded and when recovered the
mare was branded with a Fleur-
de-lis mark and was cut up bad
ly by barb-wire.

Sunday morning from California
where they have been spending
the summer. Mrs. Totzek has
regained her health entirely and
all three are looking well.

and will attend the Leland-S STAN

California his future home, on
account of his wife's health, but
as she has entirely recovered,
they viii stay in Roswell. They
will live on Missouri avenue at

What Prominent Dealers Have
To Say About Piano
Players.

E.. F. Droop & Sons, the lead
ing Music dealers of Washington,
d. C. have been advertising as
follows:
eve we're the first to offer for
sale piano players. Once in a
while we change our agencies, be-
cause we have found something
better. That is our case now.
Having taken the agency for the
Cecilia 4, the most perfect and
wonderful piano player in the
market, we naturally want to
close out the stock of "mechan-
ical'' instruments for which we
have no use, and therefore offer
these at the following prices:
Simplex player with 5 rolls of
music-brand new-$2OO; An
gelus, 5 rolls of music SITS.
|Pianola new, 5000; Symphonium
at cost. The price of the latest
improven Cecilian is $3.50 and
very cheap at that. Bear in
mind all other mechanical in
struments compared with the
Cecilian player, are as an anna
teur compared to the great pro-
fessional pianist. We will demon
strate this to your satisfaction.
Having been pioneers IN this
field locally our assertions and
judgment are based solely on ex-
perience. A large assortment of
the Cecilian for sale at the
