plain Death of Woman at st.
Joseph. Mich.
st. Joseph, Mich. Oct. 4.-Chief of
Police Sauerbier, of this city, after an
Investigation covering a period of. over
ten days, is now in position to solve
partly the mystery connected with the
death of an unidentified woman whose
body foated ashore near South Haven
Sept p.
Chief Sauerbier has learned that a
well-dressed man, accompanied by a
woman, hired rOwboat from the Geo.
Happ boat livery in this city two weeks
ago. The man paid for the boat, with
the understanding that they would re-
turn in one hour. The couple rowed
from the st. Joseph river into the lake
and this was the last seen Of boat or
occupants until the rowboat was found
ashore south Of this city.
The police believe the man and wo-
man were either accidentally drowned
or committed suicide by piunging from
the rowboat while adrift in the lake.

Lancaster voters should bear in
mind that they have in their midst
q candidate for the assembly, a
man we'll fitted for the place and
one who has a host of friends
wherever he goes. 1t certainly is
more to the interest Of out citizens
to see man like w. E. Shimmin
fill the place-one whom they all
know and honor, than to put up a
foreign candidate about whom they
know little or nothing. Consider
the situation carefully, and let Mr..
Shimmin hold the high cards at the

Lancaster won the tose and chose
the north goal, Dubuque to receive
the kick. The ball was caught by
the visitors right tackle and ad-
vanced about fifteen yards. Then
the teams lined up and Lancaster
was pushed back for a scant full
gain. On the next down a tumble
lost the ball for Dubuque, with
their fullback slightly injured. Lam
caster failed to make their distance
on the next three downs, and the
ball was returned to Dubuque, who
worked it steadily up the field, re-
tanning it in spite Of many fumbles,
until held for downs on Lancaster's
80 yard line. Again Lancaster
failed to make their distance, and
the ball was surrendered to the
visitors. After two trials at end
runs, without gain the Dubuque
fullback punted to Lancaster's ten
yard line, and Weir, who played
back, failed to hold the ball after
touching it, and it was downed by
a Dubuque man. On the next
scrimmage the home team took a
brace, and the Iowa boys were un-
able to gain, losing little ground
on the third down. At this juncture
one of the spectators shouted to
Kolb, who is new at the business,
to be on the alert when he saw the
punt formation coming, and the
Dubuque official took advantage of
the fact to retaliate for the ground
just lost SO near the goal by pena-
lizing Lancaster five yards for
coaching from the side-lines. After
conference, however, Referee Evans
prevailed upon him to retract the
penalty. With the ball in Lanoas-
ter's possession, Weir was called
upon to advance it, but on account
Of delay in starting made no gain.
Two more trials failing to make the
requisite five yards, the ball was
given to Dubuque. From then on
till the end OF the half the ball kept
changing hands, neither side being
able to make full gain, and time
was called with the ball in the
visitors possession on Lancaster's
ten yard line.
In the second half the Lancaster
team received the kickoff, Henkle
fumbling the catch and failing to
advance. !. AS the teams lined up
the home boys seemed possessed Of
new determination, and from then
on their play was much faster and
in better form than in the preced-
ing half. Eustice, the new man
from Livingston, was called upon,
and got away for very pretty run
of thirty yards almost without as
sistance before being downed. In
the next play Lancaster punted
well up into Dubuque's territory,
but were unable to hold the Iowa
team there, losing additional ground
by being penalized by Referee
Evans for an offside play. Within
thirty yards of Lancaster's goal
line Dubuque fumbled, and More
house with very skillful dive Sc
cured the ball. The home boys
then worked the ball back into
Dubuque's territory, pounding the
Dubuque line with telling force.
Unable to stand the punishment
of the Badger boys heavy bucking,
Conrad and Spellerburg of Dubuque
we're retired and Zehetner and Pol
