other brave soldier who is dear

Roselle Committed to Newberry.

Emil Roselle, who for several months
has been confined in the Baraga County
Jail, awaiting answer from the Lunacy
Commission of Baraga county, as to his
mental condition, was this week pro-
nounced insane and an order committing
him to the asylum at Newberry issued.
This state of affairs is the result of a
circumstance which occurred in Skanee
some months ago and of which the
SENTINEL spoke in brief at that time.
The conditions of the case were of "a
serious nature and the mental facalites
of the young man were at once question
ed, owing to the fact that at the time
the young man had an hallucination that
he was allotted to die, unless he himself
first committed a murder before a
certa;-,time.
Hist. lctim was one of Skanee's most
prominent young ladies and although he
did not completely accomplish his de-
sire, the results were enough to have
sent him to the penitentiary.5
He was taken to Newberry Thursday,
where he will be given treatment with
the hope of restoring him to health, as
the circumstance is not only asad but
pitiful one.

Students N
Pleasing Comedy


Decoration evening May 3Oth the
people of the community will be treated
to an entertainment, somewhat out of
the ordinary, by pupils of L'Anse High
School.
During the past few weeks cast of
characters have been rehearsing a
pleasing little play known as ''The
Merchant Of Venice" { up to date },
and have progressed with such excellent
rapidity that it has been decided to
present it in the local theatre on the
date above stated.
The play abounds with many pleasing
and odd situations and will bring forth
applause in the most unexpected places.
One of the chief oddities is an exact
reproduction of the famous Yale
Harvard foot ball game, which cannot
fail to make most entertaining feature.
On another page of this issue may be
found q general announcement includ-
ing cast of characters and prices. A
liberal patronage is anticipated.

Il Extended to Everyone TO Spend
Decoration Day In L'Anse.

Now that nearly everything in con-
nection with the general observance of
Memorial Day has been perfected the
members Of the committee extend a
cordial invitation to everyone far and
near to join with them in the exercises.
As stated in The SENTINEL last week,
the members of the L'Anse Cadets the
Fire Department. Spanish-American
and Civil War Veterans, and School
children will join in one body in in
dividual squads and proceed to the
cemetery where the graves of the de-
parted soldiers, sailors and firemen will
be given recognition.
A slight change has been made in the
way Of the afternoon exercises, it
having been found more advisable to
conduct the program complete at the
cemetery than to divide and have a
portion in the Opera House as at frsts
planned.
Therefore, program consisting Of
music. addresses, decoration of graves
and firing of salutes will take place
during the morning.
In the evening the students of L'Anse
H. S. will present play, thus the en-
tire day will be devoted to some form
of acknowledgment of Decoration
Day.
A special invitation is extended to all
veterans, soldiers and firemen. to
spend the day here and participate in
the observance.

Those used here are of American make. They look somewhat like victoria, hav- ing seats wide enough for one or two people. I took four for my trip. Two of these were for myself and son and the others for our baggage and photo graphic instruments. We paid g for each Jinrikisha, and this included four lusty natives who pushed and pulled us along One man pulled in the shafts and the three others pushed from behind. The men were as black as jet. They were bareheaded, barelegged and barefooted and were clad in gowns of bark cloth or cotton. They went on the trot even while climbing the hills. and they sang all the way.
 Each jinrilsisha party formed quartet, of which the man in the shaft was the leader. The songs seemed to contain a thousand verses of one line each. This was yelled out by the leader, and, at the end, the three men behind would grunt out one or two words sounding much like the croaking of a bullfrog. It was "Ka- rungl Karung."
 The singing did well enough at the start, but after 10 miles it began to wear Upon us, and we wished they were dumb.
