harbor and river committee in con-
gress could be prevailed upon to call
halt on his joking propensities long
enough to tack on sufficient annro-
prlation to the harbor and river bill
to allow of good permanent dams and
locks at the outlet and raise the level
OF the lake to where it was before
lumbermen lowered it by dredging out
the mouth, and another dam at or
near Onamia, and raise all the lower
lakes three feet, which is all thew
would stand, and pay for any over
howage, then Mile Laos and all con-
Meeting lakes would present some of
their old time grandeur and boating
could be carried on successfully over
the whole.
Incidentally power could be gener-
ated from the lower dam for electric
light, water works and street cars for
the growing metropolis of Onamia.
But the thing proposed is surely a
rattle brained scheme, for what is
everybody's business is nobodv's
business and would make a farce of
the whole matter. D. H.'Robbins.

It would be case of every one for
himself or the devil for the hindmost,
and some fellow in hurry would
leave the lock open and then every
town on the south shore would be
high and dry, for there is not four
feet of water today leading into two
of them in some places in the main
channel. A person has to look sharp
now and make some double Grecian
bends to follow the channel safely.
Of course, by damming the outlet and
raising the water to it's original
height, which is now three feet below
the meandered water mark, something
of the kind could be done if there was
a proper supervision of the locks.
But Mile Laos has degenerated now
all along the south shore to a point
where no more fool schemes can be
allowed. Reefs and sunken islands
are one of it's prominent features. If

MILE Laos AND ONAMIA,
ID. 81. Robbins Gives His Views on Talked
of Canal Between tho Big
Lake and Onamia.

Lake and Onamia.
Editor of the U Union: How little
some parties know about the
condition in which the cut
ting of a canal from the main
lake to the lower lake would leave
Onamia. The fact is at the present
time there is only about one foot of
water covering ten feet of soft mud
over the largest part of lake Onamia
and drop of foot or two would
leaye Onamia at the tail end of a
large sized mud hole situated some
where on the bank of the Rum river.
The railroad engineer who claimed he
ran levels and found seven feet
difference between the main lake and
lake Onamia must have had his level
grealy out of focus or his head was
not level, as any old lumberman who
mas operated upon these waters within
the last twenty years knows that a
raise of three feet and three inches on
the dams at Onamia always made a
current back into the main lake at the
outlet and four feet raise sent the
water over through the swamps west
of Warren's into Bradbury.
Taking it for granted that the gov
eminent would allow the 500 com.
pany or any other parties to construct
such canal and locks, who would
Aook after them or pay for so doing:

BRUSSELS, Dec. 2S.-Andre Giron,
who achieved notoriety three years ago
by clipping with the Crown Princess of
Saxony, was married here Thursday to
Mile. Jeanne Bream.
Giron agreed to 4 pecuniary com
promise with the family Of the crown
princess and then abandoned her. This
elopcmcnt cost the crown princess the
crown of Queen of Saxony, the loss of
her children and expulsion from the i'm
pcriaI house Of Uapsburg
Giron is Il years younger than the
woman lie married today.
Coupled with this surprising denoue-
ment came the news that the King of
SaXony has consented to receive back
his divorced wife, who is living in the
Isle Of Wight under the name of Count
ess MontignosO, on the sole condition
that her 3year-old child, Princess Anna
Monica, become a nun as soon as she is
old enough to take the veil.
That the sins of the mother should be
VISITED upon an innocent child, rOuses
deepest Indignation and the hope is ex-
pressed that Louise viii think more of
the welfare Of her child than of her own
social career. What action the princess
will take has not yet been disclosed.
1t was the Princess Louise, who, after
leaving her royal husband, wrote book
entitled The Confession of a Princess"
which startled the world. 1t was trans

COMSTOCK Is INDICATED
Postmaster General Cortelyou Gives Clean
Bill of Record to New York's
Noted Art Critic.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dee, %
Postmaster General Cortelyou today said
that criticisms of the conduct and char
acter of Anthony COmstock, largely
called out through arrests and prosecu-
lions instituted by Mr.. Comstock against
a certain publication i'll New York city,
are unfounded. An investigation was
made, establishing that at 10 time since
his connection with the postoffice depart
mCnt, since 1873. was there any ground
for the charge that Mr.. Comstock had
made false atidavits or faIsifcd his ac-
counts.
The postmaster general says in part:
There may have been Il few cases in
which his methods have been open to
some criticism, but any man who wages
war upon impurity and obscenity cannot
hope to avoid criticism.
He has stood as It barrier between
the youth Of the land and frightfully
demoraliZing traffic and | want him to
know that. looking at his work in its
larger aspect he has had. and will CON
tiGue to have, the hearty support of this
