LAKE GIVES UP IT'S VICTIMS.
Remains Found Sunday Afterr DON
After Being in the Water for
Ten DayS.

The bodies of Horace Bent, well
. known summer resort proprietor on
Tenderfoot lake; Lawrence Gale, of
Cleveland, Ohio, and Fred Anderson,
of Wrlghtstown, Wis, who we've
drowned late Friday afternoon, Nov.
11th, in Palmer lake, about II miles
west OF State Line, were found Sun
day afternoon about $3.50, after an un-
ceasing search of six days by party
of ten men. The lake was frozen D. err
and it required two days to break the
ice to allow an effective search to be
made. Graphing hooks we're used to
drag the lake, and nearly in the CEN
ter of the lake and about six foot
part the bodies of Gale and Ander-
son was found, while Bent's body was
found about 200 feet from the others.
and it is thought that he either tried
TO save the others and was pulled
down by them or started to swim hut
on account of his heavy clothing was
unable to swim, as TIE lake was very
rough. Mr.. Bent was a good swim-
mer and if some unknown cause had
not bothered him he would no doubt
have made shore.
The drowning of these three men is
the saddest accident for long time
in this vicinity 1t appears that the
men had been up the lakes with a
yacnt after load Of things and get
ting late they tied up TO shore and
took a short portage on foot to Pal
iner lake where they took canoe and
started across, and when they got in
to the middle OF the lake the canoe
tipped over and they were drowned.
Horace Bent has resided on Tender
+ ,ot lake, which is about twenty miles
from State Line, for the past ten years
and wa, we'll liked by all who knew
him. He was about IS years old, and
leaves wife and two children to
mourn the loss Of kind husband and |
loving father.
Lawrence Gale, resided in Cleve-
land, Ohio, and was friend of the |
Bent family and had intended to visit |
this winter with them. He was sin
gle man and very popular among his
Fred An e1soa vas single man
.nd aas relatives at Wrightstown. this
state, AMI had been employed for the
pas, two years by Horace Bent at his
resort, and was IN indus
;rious young man.
Justice Walters went up to-day to
1olL an inquest. Mr.. Bent will be
buried on his place at Tenderfoot lake
While the remains of Gale and Ander-
,on will no doubt be sent 10 their re-
3pective homes for burial.
The relatives have the sympathy Of

Lexington. Ky, Aug. 1S.-One of the

the place, a secluded spot in the noun
tains, deserted and were preparing to
blow up the plant when the mountain
GERS opened fire from a bluff.
Volley after volley was fired by the
mOuntaineers and answered by the of
ficers. Mccoy was shot in the head
and shoulder as he attempted to scale
the eminence sheltering the moonshin-
ers. Freeman rushed up the slope
and killed one antagonist at short
range, with a revolver shot.
Companions picked up the victim
and fed to the woods, abandoning the
still to the officers, who returned to

Washington, Aug. IS Believing
that a bottle of champagne shattered
on the PROV of a warship will impair
neither it's fighting qualities nor the
morals Of the nation. Acting Secretary
Darling, of the navy, has denied the
petitions of the Connecticut Endeavor

battleship Connecticut, soon to be
launched at the New York navy yard,
be christened only with spring water.
Mr.. Darling, in his reply to the petit
tiOns, says: IF the youth of the
country are misled, it is not by the
ceremony of breaking wine upon the
iron prov of a battleship, but because
they follow false prophets, and if such
use of wine is questionable to others
and offensive to many, it is because of
