IDENTITY NOT ESTABLISHED.
Steamer Reported Lost in Storm on
Lake Huron.


Detroit, Oct. 2.-Efforts to discover
some trace of the steamer reported to
have sunk in Lake Huron off Port
Salinac have been fruitless. Inquiries
at the towns and villages along the
Lake Huron shore have brought no
knowledge of a wreck and no floating
wreckage nor boats have been report
ed yet. The Gilchrist steamer City of
Rome is thought by some marine men
to possibly have been the unfortunate
steamer. She is said to be the only
one of sixteen boats which left Port
Huron Saturday that has not been
accounted for since then. Fl
The City of Rome passed Mackinaw
City at 1915 p. m. safely, setting at
rest the rumors that she had been
lost. MI.

The Hasenbeck Circus.

What IS unquestionably the
greatest tented show on earth will
visit Worthington or July 5th. The
fame OF Carl Hagenbeck wild
animal show is world wide. Until

seen outside OF few OF the largest

1t has always been the most wonder

and is an achievement in the hand.
ling of wild animals never equaled.
MIR. Hagenbeck is the most extensive
dealer in wild animals in the world,
and a large part Of his business is
the supplying Of circuses and ZOO
logical gardens. When Mr.. Hagen
beck decided to enter the circus field
he associated with himself some of
the most successful and best known
men in the amusement world, and
added to his wild animal show a
complete circus including many
features never before seen under a
ent OF elsewhere.
Worthington is especially fortu-
nate in securing an entertainment
of this kind, and it is owing only
to the necessity of making ID break
in the long jump from Mankato to
Sioux Falls that it appears here.
The people OF Worthington and
Mobiles county should take advant-
age of this opportunity to seq this
great exhibition.

Wisconsin Attracts Attention.

One of the largest land deals OF
the Northwest was recently con-
sumated at Cum berland, Wis. Over
two million acres of the best cut
over timber land of Northwestern
Wisconsin has been acquired by the
American Colonization Co. and is
now being placed on the market for
the first time.
The close proximity of this land
to the twin cities, Duluth and
Superior should attract attention as
there is no section of the United
States which can offer such profit
able inducements to the man of
moderate means, as this section of
Wisconsin.
The country is we'll adapted for
the raising of wheat, corn, oats and
clover and a paradise for the
diversified farmer. On account Of
the location of this land ready
market is always found. Note the
offer made in the advertisement in
