Meeting of the Independent Order of
F0rtSterS.
INITIATED 1875 NEW MEMBERS
The Largest Lodge Gathering Held ina
Long Time was the Independent order
of Foresters Held at Ashland Monday
Night, thigh Officers Present

One of the biggest lodge
gatherings That has been held
around these parts for q long
tune was that of the Independent
Order Of Foresters held at Ash
land Monday night at which
members from all their lodges
on the bay were present, and also
high officers from different parts
OF the country. The reason for
this big gathering was that about
one hundred and seventy-fve
candidates were to be initiated
into the order, but owing to the
weather being unfavorable some
few of these were unable to be
present and will have to be
Initiated at some future date.
There were about thirty five
mem bers Of the local lodge pre-
sent besides members from Bay
field and Iron River. Among
the high officers present we're
zeno NJ. Host, Madison; Col. B.
f. Parker, Milwaukee; A. Ell.
Proctor, Madison; E. L. Stevens,
Detroit, Mich; A. w. Brown,
Chicago, Ill; and Miss Daisy B..
Schook, Chicago, Of Tie Lady
Foresters. Those present from
here pronounce it one Of the best
gatherings in lodge circles that
they have ever attended.

Finished their Seasons Work Last
SATURDAY..
CUT $3.50, 962 FEET OF LUMBER
The Cut for the Three Mills is Considerable
Short of that oil Last Year When They
Sawed Over 1o5.oO0,Ooo Feet
of Lumber.

All the saw mills in Washburn
have closed down for the season,
the last two having finished their
seasons work last Saturday
night when the long whistles
were blown. There is small
crew of men still at work clean
ing and boarding up the mills for
the winter months but they will
be through in few days. The
Akeley & Sprague mill closed
down about ten days ago when
they finished their season S run.
The cut for the three mills will
run considerable short of that
of last year which was los,
$40, 897 feet of lumbe while this
season they cut 83,349, 1862 feet
making a difference of p, $780,
935 feet, although the Thompson
Lumber Company's cut will run
nearly four million feet better
than last season. The reason
for this however is that the mill
closed down sometime in Septem-
Der last year making their saw
ing season very short. The cut
for the Edward Hines Lumber
Company's MILL this year will be
about forty million feet of lum-
Der while that OF q year ago was
bet Teen fifty and fifty.one mil
lion feet. Akeley q Sprague have
also fallen short of their average
cut thfsyear which is IS, 349, &C.,
feet of lum Der and about four
million lath. Last season the
cut of this mill was 81, 40, 897
feet of lum Der and ), 475, coo lath.
The Thompson mill have done
better this season than last and
their cut is twenty five million
feet for this year and twenty one
million feet for last The reason
for the decrease in the cut Of
lumber this year was owing to
the lateness of the mills in get
ting started last spring, the first
one being the Thompson mill
which started May 10th, the
other two following about week
later.

The Naval Training School for the
Great Lakes
70 BE LOCATED AT LAKE BLUFF
The Commission Appointed by Secretary of
the Navy decide Unanimously on Lake
Bluff as Site for the Proposed School
Many Places Try for it

The commission appointed by
the secretary of the navy to in
vestigate the ACCESSIBILITY of the
various sites which have been
suggested along the great lakes
for the proposed naval training
school have handed in their re-
commentator. The committee
was composed Of three mem bers,
namely: Captain William Ii. Reed
er, of the u. S. Navy, William
Brady, Portland, Maine, and FL.
M. Waite, Lexington, Kentuckey.
They unanimously recommends
ed that the Lake Bluff site thirty
miles north of Chicago on Lake
Michigan be elected. President
Roosevelt approved of their deci-
sion. There were a good many
sites suggested and among them
the one on Chequamegon Bay
offered by the Washburn people
There was a good effort made by
the various places to land the
school but Lake Bluffs seemed to
be in favor with the commission.

Navigation. About Closed,

With the end of this week will
see navigation about at a close on
Chequamegon bay with the ex-
ception of the ferry boats which
will run until the bay freezes
over. The Ira Owen took a car
90 at the Washburn elevator
Tuesday, the Parch Foster loaded
yesterday and the large steamer
Elphicke is expected here today
and this will end the seasons
business on the lakes for this
institution. There were three
boats at thelumber docks during
the week and one more is ex-
pected here by the Hines Lum Der
com oany. At the coal dock there
has been comparatively little do
ing during the week IN the way
of boats. Insurance on lake
vessels will expire about Deem
Der 5th and by that time every
thing will have cleared with car
goes for down the lakes and will
be looking for winter quarters.
The lake business has been fairly
good this season although boats
were slow in arriving last spring
owing TO the strike of the pilots
and captains.

Largest Number Ever Issued.

The largest mum Der of hunting
licenses ever issued in the his
tory of Bayfield, County were
issued this year by County Clerk
Nels M. Oscar. There were
1902 hunting licenses taken out
up to Tuesday, Novem Der goth,
which is an increase of fifty three
over last year when there was
1349 issued. With the hunting
season about at close there has
been only one death resulting
from hunting in Bayfield, county,
which is fairly Igood considering
the army of men chasing around
the woods hunting for game.

ton. s. c.. and Admiral" White. the

it's first year next fall. As soon as the
soldiers depart, according to the pro-
gram announced by Chancellor Virgins
while here last week, skilled archi
tect will be employed to make thor
ough investigation of the buildings
and draft plans and specifications for
their alteration. Work will begin on
putting the buildings in shape just as
soon as this is done.
Many friends in Columbia will dis
like very much to see Dr. and Mrs.
Mccall depart. as well as Lieutenant
and Mrs. Sydney Smith, Capt. Ride
nour and "Admiral" White, and many
good wishes will follow them to their
new stations. DR.. and Mrs. Mccall
have become favorites in large circle

me of the most charming and hos |
oitable ladies that have reigned at the

DALNY EvACU ATEO.
Russia Abandons Eastern Port to Her
Enemy.

Toxic, June 1.-The Russians evacu-
ated Dainy so hastily that they failed to
destroy much property that will prove
highly valuable to the Japanese. Gen.
Oku's scouts report that over 100 bar
racks and storehouses remain uninjured
The railway and telegraph station, with
200 passengers and freight coaches are
also uninjured The Russians destroy
ed the'big pier and blocked all the dock
entrance with sunken steamers. They
destroyed all the small railway bridges
in the vicinity of the docks. but left the
jetties uninjured. 1t is evident that the
Russians fled quickly when Nashan Hill
was lost, expecting that Gen. Oku would
Immediately take possession of Dalny.

RELIGIOUS NEWS.

DR.. A G. Dinwiddie preached at th,
First Baptist church Sunday morning
on "The Earnest Life" 1t was plain
practical sermon and was much enjoyed
by the large congregation. At night
the pastor, Rev. Spencer Tunnel
preached en- 1.-THE Power of God"
The reception given by the Home
Workers of the First Presby teriar
church last, week to the mem
bers of that congregation, in the session
room, was largely attended and was
much enjoyed A program of music
was given which afforded much enter
tainment and pleasure.
Rev. DIR. Ham, who will conduct the
revival meeting for the Baptists here,
| beginning the second Sunday in June,
is meeting with phenomenal success
| in his meeting which is now in
progress at Mayfeld, KY. Over $50
conversions have already resulted and
the meeting continues. 1t was to have
closed Sunday, but owing to the wide
spread interest it had attracted, on
request of the pastors of the city the
meeting was continued through this
week as Union meeting. The Bap-
fists of Columbia anticipate a great
revival IN the coming meetings in
this city, and owing to the large
crowds which are expected to attend
an effort will be made to secure
Davis Hall, at the Athen9um, for the
place of holding the meetings, the
church auditorium being too small.
Davis Hall is a very large, com
modious room, capable of seating
several hundred more people than the
church.
The Baptist revival will begin on
Sunday, June H. Rev. Dr. Ham, the
evangelist, is still in Mayfeld. KY,
where great cloud burst of religion
has taken place under his preaching.
Nearly 200 persons have professed re-
liSion and half of them joined the
church. People are attending the
every day from several of the
counties, and services are
held at the court house each afternoon.
Mayfield has been greatly stirred and
the congregations get bigger as the
continue. All the ministers
and congregations of Mayfeld attend
each service and do all in their power
to help the revival along. DR.. Ham
will preach his first sermon in Column
bia on Sunday morning, June IL, at I
II a. M. at the First Baptist Church.
Each following service will probably
be held at Davis Hall, at the Athe-
naum, though this has not yet been
decided upon.

BAD FAILURE AT DAVENPORT
Ex.Mayor Smith Confesses Himself a
Bankrupt,


Davenport, April 2S.-The assign
ment of ex-Mayor S. F. Smith, promi
nent attorney and handler Of numer'
GUS estates, with the statement that
his liabilities will foot up 100000,
against assets of only $4,000, includ
ing his beautiful home, the finest In
the city, was an astounding business
revelation in Davenport today. 1t will
be received with surprise throughout
the states of Iowa and Illinois.
Mr.. Smith and his wife signed q
trust deed turning over all their prop
erty, including their home, to w. &
Putnam and A. w. Vanderveer, tive
of Mr.. Smiths bondsmen, who will act
as trustees for the creditors.
The deplorable feature of the as
Segment was the acknowledgment
by the bankrupt that there was 8
shortage OF over $4,000 in various
trust funds which he has been manag
ing as executor of large estates. There
is an extensive indebtedness besides
that is unsecured.
The trust deed provides that this
trustees shall allow Mrs. Smith $2OG
per month for not more than ten
months for her family expenses, and
that the rest of the amount realized
from Mr.. Smiths assets shall be ap
piled to wiping out the shortage IL
the trust funds and then to the paying
of the other creditors pro rata. This
small allowance to Mrs. Smith, there
FORE represents all that is left OF a
large fortune which Mr.. Smith former
ly possessed.
