"When get to that square patch of
light I'll quit" he would say to him
self and struggle painfully the requir-
ed twenty yards. t
mo, I won't quit here" he would
continue. "1'll make it that birch.
Then I'll lie down and die"
And so on. To the actual physical
exhaustion Of Thorpes muscles was
added that immense mental weariness
which uncertainty of time and distance
inficts on man. The journey might
last a week for all he knew. In the
presence of an emergency these men
of action had actually not exchanged
q dozen words. The Indian led; Thorpe
followed.
When the halt was called Thorpe
fell into his blanket too weary even to
eat. Next morning sharp shooting
pains. like the stabs of swords, ran
through his groin. *iF~>
"You come," repeated the Indian,
stolid as ever.
Then the sun was an hour high. The
travellers suddenly ran into a trail,
which as suddenly dived into spruce
thicket. On the other side of it Thorpe
unexpectedly found himself in an ex-
tensiye clearing dotted with the black
ened stumps Of pines. Athwart the dis
tance he could perceive the wide blue
horizon of Lake Michigan. He had
crossed the upper peninsula on foot
''Boat come by today" said Injun
Charley, indicating the tall stacks of a
mill. Him no stop. You max him stop
take you with him. You get train Mack
inaw City tonight. Dose men, dey on
dat train.'
Thorpe calculated rapidly. The en-
e1ny would require even with their
teams day to cover the thirty miles to
the fishing village of Munising, whence
the stage ran each morning to Seney,
the present terminal q of the South
Shore railroad. He, Thorpe, on foot and
three hours behind, could never have
caught the stage. But from Seney only
one train day was dispatched to con-
meet at Mackinaw City with the Michi-
gan Central, and on that one train, due
to leave this very morning, the up river
man was just about pulling out. He
would arrive at Mackinaw City at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, where he
would be forced to wait until in the
evening. By catching a boat at the
mill to which Injun Charley had led
him Thorpe could still make the same
train. Thus the start in the race for
Detroit'sland Office would be fair.
"All right" he cried, all his energy
| returning to him. "Here goes! Well
beat him out yet"'
'You come back?' inquired the Indi.
an, peering with a certain anxiety into
his companions eyes.
''Come back!'' cried Thorpe. "You bet
your hat!''
81 watt" replied the Indian, and was
gone.
Thorpe saw over the headland to the
east dense trail of black smoke. He
set off on stumbling run toward the

Special to Times Republican.
Burlington, Dec. S.--The body OF Ce-
Gil Hall, the young high school student
who was drowned, with two compan-
ions here last summer was recovered
by Diver Murray today after more than
a week of effort. Hall was the son OF
wealthy parents and although the
drowning occurred six months ago
they never gave up the search for the
remains Of their boy. Divers were
employed for weeks after the drowning
and for a time it was given up IN hopes
that the body would rise to the surface.
Recently q launch containing some
valuable guns and other hunting para
phernalia was overturned not far from
the spot where Hall was drowned. In
dragging for the gyms a human foot
was brought to the surface. Halls
father identified it as that Of his son by
the shoe which incased it and at once
renewed the effort to recover the boys
body. This was about ten days ago..
Divers have been at work ever since.
The body was firmly Embedded IN the
sand and was wedged under a big

Are Airing Their Troubles

Nevada, Dec. S.-Disregarding the
advice of Judge Whitaker, who a year
ago told them to return home and en-
JOY such marital bliss as was due them
Bradford Bagley and his wife, Ida, are
again to have their family affairs aired
before the court, during the trial of a
divorce case.
About year ago Mrs. Bagley
brought suit against her husband,
charging drunkenness, non-support
and other charges. The evidence was
rehearsed before Judge Whitaker, and
after listening to it he refused the de-
cree and gave the couple some good
advice He gave the plaintiff to UNDER
stand that If she would curb her ton
que and the husband his appetite for
BOOZE" there would be little need of
their airing their matrimonial tangle
before him.
Now the husband has filed a petition
with the clerk of court asking for a
divorce from his wife. In his petitinO
he says that his wife has refused to
live with him and has locked the
doors upon him; that she has even re-
fused to cook for him or allow him to
put his feet under the family mahog-
any. He says that they have property
in their control to the value of about
$4,000 and that she refuses to give him
any portion of it, and threatens to in
woke the law upon him If he interiors
with the manner in which she con-
ducts things about the family domicile.
Furthermore Mr.. Bagley makes some
very sensational charges against his
wife, naming a couple of we'll known
Colo parties as correspondents in the
case. He asks an absolute divorce and
a part of the property. The couple are
well known in Colo, where they have
lived since their marriage in 1885.
They have two grown daughters.

Sac City Enterprises Successful.

Special TO IllnSS-RepuDlIcan.
Sac City, Dec. 8. ~ A manufactory
was established here this season for
making large tile or cement and coarse
sand or gravel. A company was org
anized and Incorporated, called the
Cement Tile Company Of Sac City.
They make tile much stronger than
burned clay and cheaper for the large
sizes from twelve inch to twenty-four
inch.
They have sold between fifteen and
twenty thousand dollars worth Of the
output this season.
Many of these tile have been placed
near Sac City and are converting pond
beds into productive fields.
Last spring there was organized
company in Sac City, called the Con-
crete stone Company, for the manu-
facture of artificial stone for building
purposes. Large beds of sand near the
Milwaukee railway depot, have been
utilized in making strong, durable
stone Of any desirable form or size, by
mixing with cement and nolding while
damp. About six or seven thousand
dollars worth of these stones have
been made and sold here this year.
