Detroit, Oct. 15.-Twenty-two lives
out of a crew of twenty-three were
lost In Lake Superior last night when
the Lackawanna transportation com.
pany's new ship Cypress, was either
pounded to pieces or driven ashore
by a tremendous gale.
One man, dashed to a life raft, was
washed ashore at Grand Marais, and
is believed to be dying. He was bare
ly able to gasp that there were TWEEN
ty-three on board and that he is the
only survivor.
The disaster was twenty miles off
Grand Marais, at Deer park. The
survivor was not able to tell the name
Of his shin but according to a late,
dispatch from Grand Marais, it was the
cypress, and she was making her sec
ond trip down the AXE with a cargo

Two bodies were washed ashore near
Deer park this morning.

had a 400 ton capacity.

ARCHDUKE FERDINAND
TO BE AUSTRlA'S RULER

Vienna, Oct. Jeff Emperor Francis
Josef dies. as now seems very likely,
the prevailing official opinion is the
transfer of the crown to Archduke
Ferdinand, the emperor's nephew,
would take place without a shock to
the dual monarchy. or without a con
%troversy of moment arising between
Hungary and the new sovereign. This
opinion is based upon study of the per-
sonalities of the Hungarian and Aus
trian statesmen n from knowledge of
the private affairs and policies Of the
Austrian court.
Archduke Francis Ferdinand has
shown himself in a much more favor-
able light as a man during the last Two
or three years, than formerly, and durS
ing recent months he has demonstrated
that he is capable Of dealing with pub
lie business. The policy Of the emperor,
in preparation for the succession, has
been to push the archduke forward and
take no decision of Importance with
out h coming king knowing all about
the subject.

SECOND WlFE'S HAIR
EXHIBIT "A" IN COURT

st. Louis, Oct. 15.-Mrs. Rachael Pa
wax, wife of Jacob Pavak. introduced
as an exhibit a handful of hair which
she claimed was pulled from her by
Mrs. Eva Alstrop, her husbands former
wife, when she and Mrs. Alstrop and
Jacob were arraigned in the Dayton
street police court on cross charges OF
disturbing the peace
Mrs. Alstrop claims she is the orig
inal Mrs. Pavak and that all others are
base limitations. She says Pavak de-
serted her and their 1~0-year-old boy
and married Rachael.
Pavak insists that when he was liv-
ing in Boston he heard St. Louis was
a good place to come to. and he came.
He asked Mrs. Pavak to come along
and she refused.
He got a divorce and married Rachael
and on September "a the three met and
there were ord Mrs. Alstrop wanted
to be supported and recognized, and
Mrs. Pavak objected. Mrs. Alstrop
went after some of her successors hair
and got It,. The husband interfered,
and the police came.
The husband was fined $40. and let
off after he paid $40, and the women
were assessed SIS Zach and permitted to
leave after they paid costs.

BOY SLAYER Is A
PUZZLE TO POLICE

Camden, N. j., Oct. 15.-Seemingly as
devoid of moral perception as Jesse
,Porleroy when he murdered Katie Cur
ran in 1874. Joseph Wood, 16, slayer OF
Ethel Nevin. 9. was made the subject
of quick Indictment for murder by the
grand jury today. AS the boy confessed
his guilt, the only question to be de-
termined is what the punishment shall
be. 1t is likely an early date will be
set for the trial.
Young Woods confession marks him
n of those abnormalities that set
milestones in the record of juvenile
crime.
Sixteen years old, with a mop of un-
kempt, two-colored hair, his face small
and eatures weakened, the boy evinced
not the slightest indication he has any
idea Of the enormity Of his deed.
He confessed because he was sleepy
and wanted to go to bed to get his feet
warm. After telling a story that drove
chills through the policemen, Wood
slept like the child he is in stature.
To the authorities the Wood boy pre-
sents a problem. 1t is generally con-
coded he is morally too deficient to de-
serve death, and too dangerous to be
at large. He probably will be found
guilty OF murder and imprisoned for .
long term.

cURRANTs, IDEAL FOOD,
REGULATED BY GREECE

Washington, Oct. 16.-Currants of
The dried, seedless variety, grow only
In Greece, where they form about 65
per cent. of the total alu of the
country's production. TIC protect the
consumer, laws have been promulgated
by the Greek government making it a
crime punishable by heavy penalties
to pick the fruit before it is ripe, or
pack it before it is thoroughly dried
and cleaned. The immediate result
will be further to improve the quality
of currants, for which the worldwide
demand is constantly increasing.
Great Britain annually consumes
over three pounds Of currants a head.
Here, where the no%urishing and whole
some qualities of currants are not so
well known, we eat only about half a
pound a head. The larger consumption
In England is partly due to the fact
that Sir Francis Laking, King Ed
wards physician, and other celebrated
dietists have all Joined in recommend
ing currants as an ideal food for daily
consumption.

ssBOO-F1OO"
Shouts a Spanked Baby.

A Doctor Of Divinity, now Editor of
~well-known Religious paper, has
written regarding the controversy be-
tween Golfers Weekly and the Relig-
lous Press of the Country and others.
Including ourselves. Also regarding
suits for libel brought by Collitr's
against us for commenting upon its
methods.
These are his sentiments, with some
very emphatic words left out.
1.-THE religious Press owes you a

showing up Golfers Weekly as the

successor?"

hickory POST and Deer damaged in
its own estimation to the tune of

Here is a publication which has, in
utmost disregard of the facts, spread
broadcast damaging statements about
the Religious Press and others and has
suffered those false statements to go
uncontradicted, until, not satisfied
after finding the Religious Press too
quiet, and peaceful, to resent the in
suits, it makes the mistake of wander

1t back a dose of its own medicine"
1T is a mistake to say all the World
laughs. No CHEEKY laugh comes from
Golfers, but it cries and boo hoos like
a spanked baby and want $75O,OOO.OO

telling the whole truth without fear or

Perhaps Golfers with It's utmost
disregard for the facts may say nc
such letter exists. Nevertheless it Is

not made itself more ridiculous than
any comment Of ours could make it.
Does Golfers expect to regain any
self-inficted loss Of prestige by demon
strating thru suits for damages, that 1t
can be more artful in evading liability
for libels than the humble but r%esentful
victims Of its defamation, or does it
hope by starting a campaign Of libel
suits to silence the popular indigna-
ton, reproach and resentment which it
has aroused.
Golfers can not dodge this public
controversy by private law suits. 1t
can not postpone the public judgment
against it. That great jury, the Pub
lie, will hardly blame us for not wait
ing until we get a petit jury in a court
room, before ~denouncing this prodigal

James Allen, the miller, had the mis-
fortune to lose the four fingers of the
right hand, Thursday morning about
eight o'clock. He was grinding feed,
and chat had gathered between the cor
rugated rollers of the crusher, prevent
ing the corn from feeding in, and as he
had probably done hundreds of times
before, reached his hand in to remove
the obstruction, and in some way it
caught his fingers, crushing two of them
off at the knuckles and two at the second
joint. He was conveyed to DR.. COTS
Office, where it was found necessary to
amputate these two at the knuckles,
thus leaving him his thumb and palm.
DR.. ]. B. Horner assisted in the opera
ton. Mr.. Allen is about seventy years
of age and has worked with machinery
all his life and this is his first acct
dent; he displayed remarkable forth
tude in this trying ordeal. He is most
upright and honorable man and has the
heartfelt sympathy of this community.

Struck by Lightning.

The following account of the striking
by lightning of the residence of ]. A.
Hawkins, former we'll known
resident of this county, is taken from
the Columbus, Mont, News, of July 4th:
During the storm that prevailed in
this vicinity last Thursday afternoon,
two residences were struck by light
ming, and, considering the violence it is
a miracle that more damage was not
done.
The residence of NJ. c. Lowe. corner
of Hamilton Avenue and Pratton street,
and the Shaw residence adjacent, occu-
pied by Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Hawkins,
were struck.
The chimneys of the Lowe residence
were demolished, stove pipes were
scattered everywhere, while smoke,
dust and SCOT filed the rooms. Mrs.
Lowe and the children were at home at
the time, but were not injured.
The lightning struck the Shaw resi-
deuce on the east side near double
window where the telephone wires en-
tered. The wire being grounded saved
the building from being destroyed.
Every pane of glass in the window be-
ing. demolished and the casem. mt badly
damaged. Mrs. Hawkins was sitting by
the window sewing and other than be-
ing slightly dazed she was uninjured

WOMAN'S BEST FRIEND
All the Horrors of Change of Life
for Five Years. LeuCCorrhea
for Ten Years.
USED ZOA-pHORA
After Physicians Failed to Cure.
That Was Five Years Ago.
Still pralsing Zoa-phora.

Woman's best friend is one that will
give her the degree of buoyant health
and strength that nature intended for
her. Zoa-Phora is that friend. Not
patent cure all" but just medicine,
scientifically prepared for women only.
One that acts directly on the diseased
organs through the blood and nerv-
GUS system, replacing the old worn-out
tissues with new, and removing conges-
ton, Inflammation and unnatural dis
charge.
Zoa-Phora is the well woman's friend
too, because it keeps her we'll.
Mrs. Edwin Lee, of Addison, Michigan,
says: "Pen and ink can never tell what
Zoa-Phora has done for me. 1t is indeed
true and tried friend and has never
failed me once" Whether you are sick,
ailing, or we'll, keep a bottle of Zoa-
Phora in the house all the time. 1t will
prove a friend in need.
Mrs. Alice Brown, of Valley junction,
Ia, wrote on May ~, 1902, 81 wish to
tell you that Zoa-Phora has been a
wonderful blessing to me. have been

Finally was induced to begin taking
Zoa-Phora, and after taking four bottles
my health is restored. can now do
my own work, and can never thank you
enough for the benefits derived from
your wonderful remedy" On April %,
1907, nearly five years later Mrs. Brown
writes, "You may still refer any woman
to me. l will gladly recommend Zoa-
Phora." Does this not prove that the
benefit was permanent?
This letter is strong proof of the
merit of Zoa-Phora. The only way that
you can become positively convinced
that Zoa-Phora will do as much for you
is to try the medicine yourself. Go to
your druggist and ask him for Zoa-
Phora; no other explanation will be.
needed. You will receive the medicine
already prepared, compounded in just
the right proportions, and put up in a.
sealed, sterilized, one dollar bottle.
In each package will be found copy
of DIR. Pengelly's Advice to Women" a
medical book, giving instructive informa-
ton about all diseases of women and
the way to successfully treat Them
You can now treat yourself in the pri-
vacy of your own home and need not
tell your troubles to anyone.
