Many Frost Bites Occur in
the Woods as Result of
Intense Cold.
BAD WEATHER MAKES THE
WOODSMAN DISCONTINUED.
Four Barrels of Chickens Sent to
One Camp But Cook Would
Not Prepare Them.

The present winter season has
been one of the most severe on
men working in the woods of any
in the memory Of some of the
oldest loggers. From camps in
every portion Of the county come
reports Of men with frozen feet,
frozen ears, noses, cheeks or
hands.
One logger said yesterday that
he knew OF several camps where
scarcely a man has escaped get
ting some portion of his body
frozen or badly frostbitten.
While the woods offer some
protection from the wind, there is
no protection for the men against
I the frost when the mercury is
several degrees below zero, ex-
Icept to keep in motion, and even
then exposed portions of the
body, the face or hands will be-
come frostbitten before the
owner is aware of it.
This condition of the weather
has occasioned more or less suf-
fering for the men, and in some
instances they are quitting the
camps in numbers claiming that
they will not work while it is so
cold, and declaring their inten-
ton Of coming to the city to stay
until the weather moderates.
This is the time Of season when
the loggeris usually accomplish
ing the most work, the men hav
ing settled down to the job and

He Told In Baltimore Speech
About His Soldier Ex-

ALETTER. z =
1t Asks Pay for a Horse Said to
Have Been Stolen by the
Sturdy Statesman.

Washington, Feb. 9.-Senator
Nelson has been made the sub
ject Of a good jokeas the result
Of his own talk about his army
experience
That story has brought the
joke on Senator Nelson.
The senator attended ban
quet in Baltimore on the invita-
tion of an association Of business
"a en-, and he was down for a
speech on commercial questions.
He talked entertainingly about
the developement OF the country
and about the prospects for in
creasing the trade of the United
States in China and other parts
of the Far East.
Then be got ina reminiscent
mood and talked about the time
when as a boy he marched with
his regiment through Baltimore
and out into the rural districts OF
the famed eastern shore country
Of the state. OF course it was a
good speech and the senator was
probably satisfied that he had
done his part IN contributing to
the enjoyment Of the evening.
Within day or two he re-
ceived a letter from a man in
Baltimore. The letter went on
to state that the writer had heard
the senator's speech at the ban
quet and he wished to remind the
senator Of a little matter. The
writer recalled the march Of the
regiment through the rural dis
tricts Of the state and also re-
marked that at the time of the
march the writer's father had
lost a horse off the farm. Would
the SENATOR please remit the value
Of the horse?
The best part Of the joke is
that it is true and the demand
was apparently made in good
faith,

working well together, and the
loss of men is inconyenient.
AS an Offset to the disagreeable
weather conditions, many of the
loggers are making extra efforts
to provide the woodsmen with
the very best Of camp fare as an
inducement to hold them at work.
They argue that if the woodsman
is any better fed than he will be.
in town, and more attention is
paid to his comfort in camp, he.
will hesitate long before quitting
his job.
A number Of the local loggers
claim that their camp provender
bill has been heavier within the
last six weeks than during any
period in any other winter. One
logger, who has a camp not many
miles from ,Bemidji sent out
three barrels Of chickens to the
camp for the men, and was ready
to send the fourth when the cook
sent in word that he would not
prepare them if they came to
camp. The cook claimed that
serving chickens to woodsmen
was too much work. and he would
quit his job before he would do it.
He did not object to making pies
for three meals day, three or.
four kinds of cake, sauce, besides
the usual array ofvegetables and
fresh meats, but he did object to-
getting up chicken dinners.
