Injured at Coal Dock.

Monday morning at about O'Clock
Edward Eleisen became the second vic
tim of rapidly revolving derrick
handle.
Mr.. Eleisen was engaged as an at
tendant at the d. S. S. & A. coal dock
near the site of the round house, and
while in the act of hosting bucket of
coal from the pit to the landing, had
neglected to drop the brake into the
sprocket, and when the bucket was
about midway, the handle slipped from
his grasp and rapidly reversing struck
him fairly in the face, cutting it badly
in numerous places and rendering him
unconscious for several moments.
As soon as possible he was given a
surgeons attention and although his in
juries are painful no serious results are
anticipated. The first victim of sim
liar accident was fireman on No 80,
who suffered the same injury some
months ago.

A DELIcHIUI NUMBER.
Miss Ruby X. Harkness Pleases
L'Anse Audience In Recital.

That wich was to have constituted
the third number of the Peoples En-
tertainment course, but through cir
cumstances over which neither the man
agement nor artist had no control, viz:
the recital by Miss Ruby X. Harkness,
was given last evening.
At this time l. L'Anse people were given
a rare musical treat. From the opening
number to the closing Miss Harkness
held her audihnce in close touch. Her
enunciation was distinct, her powers of
Interpretation marvellous, and her de-
pertinent pleasing.
Each number was given hearty
encore and it was with feeling of
deepest regret that the last was heard.
Mrs. j. B. Smith, of this village,
acted in the capacity of accompanist,
and it is with considerable pride
taat we can boast of having a musi-
clan of ability such as she possesses,
and the manner in which she handled
her portion of the program was worthy
of more than passing notice.
The series throughout have proved
d d,ligttful and uplifting, and the man
ment is to be congratulated upon the
success of the undertaking.

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Pequette, who
have been spending the past three
weeks in L'Anse, will leave Tuesday

the chief of the tribe of Nett Lake In
dians, Chief Day-bay-wain-dong.
The trip was taken in the interest Of
the Indians of the reservation who are
not quite satisfied with the treatment

the hands of the Indian affairs depart
ment in the matter of allotments and in
other particulars. A number of minor
claims as to arrearages, ETC., were also
taken up with Commissioner of Indian
Affairs Leupp at the same time. AL

Senator'S Nelson and Clapp we're con-

as were to be had. to those members of
the reservation who sought to obtain
such, had been passed, thus making

Governor Warner Issues Annual Ap-
peal to schools and Public.

To the people Of the state OF Michi-
gan, greeting:
In accordance with well-established
custom, /, Fred M. Warner, Governor
of the State of Michigan, do hereby set
apart Friday, May first, 1908, as Arbor
Day.
The season of the year has come that
re minds us that much can be done to
improve the scenes about us and make
our homes, our highways and our State
more attractive. 1t was that commend
able sentiment that brought about the
designation Of a day that would be
known as Arbor Day. and its observ-
ance year after year will benefit our
State and its people.
No monument that man can build is
as imposing as a stately tree, and he
who plants it has claim upon posteri-
ty greater than that of the artist or
the sculptor. He who plants tree and
watches its growth and development
must love the land that nourishes it,
the country that protects it and the
government that Is over all.
Public conscience has awakened to the
fact that the time is present when en-
ergetic, intelligent and practical efforts
should be made to restore, in some
measure, at least, the generous gifts
which nature bestowed upon our state
but which have been swept away to
provide for the constantly increasing
demands of constantly increasing pop
ulation. The protection of the forest
resources still existing is a matter Of
urgent local and national Importance.
Arbor Day gives the children an op-
portnnity to assume the first RESPONSE
bilities of citizenship. It is not enough
to plant tree, The children should
give their intelligent care to the trees
after they are planted. It's constancY
to any undertaking that insures its sue
cess. / recommend that appropriate ex-
ercises be held in our schools which will
tend to impress the significance of the
day upon the minds of the rising gen
GRAFTON.
In testimony whereof, have hereun-
to set my hand, and caused the Great
Seal of the State to be affixed at Lans-
ing, this second day of April, in the
year of our Lord, one thousand nine
hundred eight.

Governor.

coLuMBus PLAYS NEW ORGAN
Former L'Anse Boy Has Distinction Of
Being First to show off
New instrument.

Prof. William 8. Columbus, formerly
Of this village, but now holding the
responsible position as head of the in
strumental department Of the Albion,
(Mich.) Conservatory, has recently
achieved new "laurels" in the music
line, and the same will undoubtedly be
of interest to his many friends here.
The occasion was the event of the
dedication of the new and massive pipe
organ just installed in the First M. E.
church at Petoskey.
In speaking Of the recital the Petoskey
Evening News has the following to say.
"A good crowd met Prof. w. s.
Columbus, Of Albion College, at the
First M. E. church Friday night, and
went away delighted. Although there
were number of minor details about
the organ not yet completed, and the
artist was to that extent handicapped,
yet every movement proved the mas
ter hand at the manuals, and in spite
of the drawbacks, demonstrated his
technic and soul touch. His numbers
were well chosen and diversified, and
were of such q character as not only
to bring out the splendid execution of
the organist, but indicated the qualities
of the instrument. Mr.. Columbus has
pleasing presence and manner, utterly
devoid the conventional or the stacy,
is easy and self reliant and Immediately
puts his audience at rest"

Lumber Camp.
Thomas Price, a Woodsman, Meets
Death BY q Falling Tree.

!, Monday evening the body Of Thomas
Price, woodman, employed in S. D..
Murphy's camp, was brought to this
village.
Itappears that Price was engaged dur
ing the day In falling trees and between
the hours Of 2 and 8 o. clock was caught
beneath limb of one and crushed al
most beyond recognition.
Deceased was native of Chatham,
Ont, and had been employed in the
various camps Of Baraga county during
the past three years, and on account of
the numerous stories, none Of which
would coincide with the other, it was
impossible to tell much of his past or
locate any relatives. As near as can be
learned there is small boy and girl
who survive him, but their present 10
cation could not be asecrtained.
The remains were buried in L'Anse
cemetery Wednesday afternoon with
brief ceremonies.

The Deadly Finger Nail

Every time you scratch yourself you run
risk. No, don't smile that superior smile
and say that you have never yet had any
trouble from it. What we say is true. Ask
any physician. To scratch your scalp, a
pimple or scab is particularly dangerous.
Your finger nails carry germs of Eczema,
Tetanus (Lockjaw) Erysipelas and all
manner of skin diseases. Let one little
germ get into the scratched place and trou-
bic is sure to follow. Because you have
been lucky enough to escape so far is no
guaranty that you will be so lucky in the
future. Don't take chances. For any Itch
ing use Littell's Liquid Sulphur, stops Itch
ing instantly, and permanently relieves all
forms of skin complaint, eczema, erysipelas,
pimples, running sores, letter, ring worm,
chaps, roughness, redness or skin blotches.
Gentlemen: November, 1902, l con-
tracted facial erysipelas and my physicians
prescribed ichthyol ointment and retirement
from business. After one days use of the
ointment I concluded the erysipelas was
preferable, on account of the villainous odof
and color of the ointment. Having by me
bottle of Littell's Liquid Sulphur with
which l had cured, with one application,
an aggravated case of prickly heat the prev
ious summer, l abandoned all other rene.
dies and applied that with most satisfactory
results, as the disease was confined to its
original limits and in due time disappeared.
