ELEVEN PRISONS DROWNED
A STEAMER CAPSIZED ON LAKE
MICHIGAN.
Seven Persons Rescued After Floating
Around All Night on Pieces of
Wreckage-Boat Was Struck by
Squal During the Night-SeVsn
Miles From Land.

Marinette, Wis, Oct. 5.-During
squall on Lake Michigan the steamer
j. H. Hackley capsized and II persons
were drowned. The Goodrich line
steamer ShebOygan rescued the other
seven persons on board the Hackley
after they had foated about on pieces
Of wreckage all night. The Hackley
was struck by the squall when seven
miles off Green island. The upper
works were blown away before the
boat could reach a haven. The boat
then turned over and went down In
deep water. The drowned:
George Laclaire, Jr., Jacksonport,
Wis; Joseph V. Crus, captain of the
Hackley, Fish Greek; Edna Barringer;
Lawrence Barringer, Fish Creek;
Henry Rabitoy, Fish Greek; Carl Kel-
ky, Fish Creek Miss Frances Vincent;
Miss Vincent's sister, Egg HarDor,
Wis; Freeman Thorp, Fish Creek;
Nels Nelson, Sturgeon Bay; Frank
Fitzgibbons, Jacksonport.
The rescued: Frank Blakeield,
purser, Fish Creek; Orrin Rollin, en-
gineer, Fish Greek; Milton Hansen;
Blaine McQuesney, Fish Creek; two
men of Ellison Bay, Wis.
1t was several hours after the Hack
ley sank before the Sheboygan hove
within sight.
After the Hackley went to the bot
tom those who would and could seized
on floating wreckage while the women
and three or four of the men, failing
to find any object to which to cling,
sank in the sea, so far as known.
The waves were rolling high, and
several of those who at first saved
themselves from immediate death lost
strength and sank. 1t was more than
an hour after the Hackley sank before
the ShebOygan hove in hailing dis
lance. The shouts of the floating men
attracted the attention of the sailors
of the Sheboygan and every assistance
was lent The darkness made rescue
slow, but the officers Of the Sheboygan
feel sure that they took ABOARD every
person afoat. Some of the persons
who were rescued say that it is pos
sible that one or more of the IL per
sons missing may have escaped death.
This view is not given much credence
by the sailors of the Sheboygan. The
ShebOygan made into Fish Creek when
hope of rescuing other persons seemed
impossible.
The rescued persons were so ex-
hausted from their struggles against
drowning that they were unable for
some time to tell anything about the
wreck
The persons saved by the Sheboygan
say that with the washing away of the
upper works all persons aboard the
Hackley ran on deck Hasty prepare
tions for plunge into the water were
begun, but before any plans could be
carried out the boat listed, turned over
and went down like a rock. Search is
still making for any persons who may
have escaped death and for the bodies
of those who were drowned.

of the store.
II being election day, the store was
closed. 1t was owing to this fact that
the fire was not discovered sooner.
The building is two-story frame
structure. 1t was built short time ago
for the firm of NJ. Frost & Co. The
building itself was only partially dam
aged, but the contents OF the storc.room
were almost entirely destroyed. Mr..
Frost carried insurance on the stock to
the amount of $500. He estimates the
loss ut about $1,000. There was very
large stock of whiskey in the store, in
barrels as well as in smaller recepticles.
As soon as the insurance can be ad-
iusted, Mr.. Frost will open up the store
again. The insurance was divided be-
tween the Alexander & Alexander agency
and the Hal N. Rapp agency, the former
carrying policy for $l,5OO, and the lat
tor for $1,000.

.RLLLIANI
is THE OUTLOOK FOR A REPUBLI-
CAN VICTORY IN THE MUNIcI-
PAL ELECTION.
DAY DAwNs RAINY, BUT WEATHER,
CLEARS UP LATER AND 4
LARGE VOTE IS PoLLED. {
Democratic-LabOr Gang Leaders Displeas-
ed and Disgusted With the
Prospect.

The weather man evidently had it in
for the different political candidates this
morning. Election day dawned rainy
and muddy. The atmosphere was damp
and the temperature uncomfortable.
However, later on in the morning the
rain stopped, the clouds rolled back, the
temperature became more normal. the
hazy atmosphere cleared up and things
looked little brighter.
From the general outlook on the streets
and at the various voting places, every
thing points to the election Of the Re.
publican ticket by goodly majority.
After the weather cleared up in the
earlier part of the day, the people turn
ed out in large numbers to exercise their
right of suffrage. From present pros
poets large vote will be polled.
The Democratic-Labor gang did not
seem at all pleased with their prospects
of winning out, and the general condi-
tion of affairs vexed the gang leaders
considerably. They were disguised with
the general public sentiment, which seem.
ed to indicate that the greater number
of the citizens and free-holders were in
favor of the continuance of a good, sub
stantial, fair and impartial Republican
city administration.
Everything points favorably to a
sweeping Republican victory, and there
seems to be no doubt but that Grille will
lead the Republican ticket by at least
600 majority.
Following is the total vote polled at
the various voting places up to the hour
of going to press:

Pencil and Paper" was her next topic,
She told of the usefulness Of paper and
pencil in illustrating some of the Bible
lessons to the younger pupils. For the.
following topic she pointed out The ne.
cessity Of having Prepared Program
The program should be an attractive one,
not the same every Sunday, but enough
of unlocked for numbers and unexpect-
cd surprises to retain the interest Of
the scholar. Then she told how each
teacher must make the Bible lesson
Plain to each scholar. BY way of IL.
lushation she told of the scripture read
ing where "AIoses was placed in the
flags To thus read it to the young.
children the impression naturally left up:
on their minds would be that Moses was
wrapped in flag. Thus she pointed out
how the language must be made clear
and plain TO the little ones.
when teacher goes to Sunday school
without knowing just what she is going
to teach, the scholars win go away with
ont knowing what they have been
taught said Mrs, Bryner, thus point
ing out another deep thought The OBJ
iect and relation Of the Sunday school,
she said, was TO bring the scholars in
touch with the word of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Personal Work" was another topic
She told of the necessity of a teacher
to know the local conditions Of her class.
She must know of the parents, the pub
lie schools and their play. The Sunday
school must be Progressive" and not
merely "hold its own" Another topic
was the Pastor" lie mast necessarily
work in sympathy with the Sunday
school. His suggestions as TO the books
to be read, new features in the service,
etc, were valuable. He should not teach
the advanced class of boys each succeed
ing Sunday; let him take a Junior class
one Sabbath, the primary class Of girls
the next. and so on, changing around
each week.
Another important topic was that Of
Parents" The Christian training Of
the child at home must be carefully con-
sidered.
Mrs Bryner then spoke of how each
Sunday school worker must aPushn the
work, of how teachers must have a
goodly amount Of Patience" Of the ne
ccssity Of the Power of Prayer and
last of the resultant phase Of the work
that Of profit"
At the conclusion OF Mrs. Bryner's talk
Secretary shafer got up on the plat
form and. rubbing out one of the initial
letters in the center of the blackboard,
dIew in large letters the word ePark-

ing Sunday school convention.

ncr's lecture, the large audience was hell
in breathless and close attention Her
clocutionary abilities. her carnestness III
outlining the different topics, and the

lecture one Of the utmost interest, cs-
pecially as the audience was made up Of
