TIMBER CLAIMS BRING s.
~
BIG MONEY, THESE DAYS
Those Who Held on to Their Claims
Are Now Getting Good
Returns.

Duluth Herald: "Men who sold|
fine timber claims few years ago.
at half what could be obtained for
them now, must feel pretty sore
when they see the rolls of bills friends
who hung on are now getting for the
same kind of TIMBER" said w. A
Poole of Cass Lake, Mimi, at the
Mckay; "The increase in the price
of timber in the last five years has
been something remarkable, and it
is going up right along. In many
cases the prices have more than
doubled, <and timber that could not
be given away five years ago,: and
which was considered good fol.
nothing except firewood, is nov
commanding fair price. /
A man can -hard1ybe blamed for
not hanging on to his timber,
=
though, when one considers the ever
present danger of fire. Millions of
feet of pine. have been destroyed by
forest fires, and the average home
steader figures that it is better to be
sure of reasonable profit, than to
wait for an uncertain big profit.
Even jack pine is being sawed up in
to lumber these days. A. Timber
men of ten years ago would have
laughed heartily at the joke if you
had told him that jack pine would
be used for lumber at some future
date." 80 -.

CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT

Confusion Of Signals Seem to Have
! Taken Place and Each Vessel
Claims the Other Was Responsible
for the Disaster Which Resulted.
Baltimore. Aug. 27.-The tug Gerry
Of Wilmington, Del, was sunk in col
lision with the British steamer Barn
stable during the night in the Patap-
SEQ river off Sparrows point Five men
are believed to have lost their lives
out of twenty-five who were on the
.tugboat. ~
Six Of the survivors clambered up
the side of the. steamer by means of
the anchor chain. The remainder were
picked up by the steamers boat or
swan to dredge moored near by.
Confusion of signals seems to have
caused the accident, each side claim
ing that the other was at fault. Cap
tain Davidson of the Barnstable said
that when the vessels were within
about 100 feet of each other the tug
suddenly changed it's course and at
tempted to cross the steamers bows.
Before the latter craft could be
stopped 1t struck the tug, sending it
to the bottom In few minutes. The
Barnstable was not damaged. On the
part of the tugboat it was claimed
that her course was changed in COM
pliance with a second signal from the
Barnstable. The Gerry was on her
way to the dredge Standard, which is
engaged in widening and deepening
the channel at Seven Foot knoll. The
Barnstable was bound to this port
from Jamaica with passengers and a
cargo of fruit. --

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
Wife Turns on Gas While Husband
Sleeps.

Sleeps.
Chicago, Aug. 27.-1n the deaths of
Charles Jacobson, forty-nine years old.
and, his wife, Matilda, forty-eight years
old, who were found dead from gas
asphyxiation' In their bed at their
home, the police believe they have q
murder and suicide mystery.
The man was undressed, while the
woman was attired in a wrapper. The
police believe this supports their thee.
ry Of murder and suicide. It Is their
opinion that the woman was the last
one up and that che turned on the
gas while her husband slept, after
which she lay down on the bed and
awaited the end.
Dependency. on the part of both
over the enforced idleness Of her hus-
band. who was striking printer. Is
believed to have been the motive for
the double crime.
