TO champion. In his own dis
trict the Cross followers are so en-.
thusiastic over his fighting that they
think it reasonable to say that such
lightweights as Battling Nelson,
Packey Mcfarland and Tommy Muir
ply have chance with him. Along
the east side it Is an honor to re
swatted on the nose by Leach, and
anyone who has a black bump on his

partner who had decorated lamp

a deeper purple when the first mid
night effect began to wear off.
Yes, they think LOT of Leach Cross

Leach brought in nearly a thousand dol

the truth, thousands are anxious to see
Packey Mcfarland fight and a large
proportion of these are quite as anxious
to see Cross whipped.
They've been going to fight after fight

has disappointed them in a measure.

Cross has improved in fight after fight.

Christmas had q double significance
for Mr.. and Mrs. Charles H. Anderson
this year. Aside from its being the
greatest Of all days Of the year, it also
marked the date upon which fell the
9Th anniversary of their marriage.
In consequence, the event was cele-
brated in most loyal manner. The
several rooms Of the Thomas Hotel. Of
which they are at the head, were tast-
lily decorated with Christmas trees, ce-
dar garlands, wreaths and cut flowers.
and the day spent in feasting and jollity.
During the day . number of guests,
friends and relatives dropped in upon
them and extended congratulations and
in the evening all was given over to
pleasures Of all descriptions, and the
whole brought to close in manner
long to be remembered by the host and
hostess.

Tried and Found Wanting.

As it has always been the custom for
one brother to aid another in his efforts
to accomplish his duties and tighten his
labors, 80 has THE SENTINEL endeav-
ored to do likewise.
Some weeks ago we published short
article on the recent discovery of some
fellow down the line of an easy and la
Dor saving scheme for the destruction
of stumps other than blasting and pull
ing.
Now comes another fellow from Mar
inette who says ''its N. Co." and says
in part:
There are perhaps many who have
tried it but say nothing about it. !
gave it q through test and it is no ben
eft in removing stumps. have now
blasted out the stumps and cannot find
that the acid has done any damage to
them. If this gets the publicity that
the other item did it will perhaps save
a great many people little money and
considerable time. We find it to be an
absolute failure"

This is story, not Of pomp and dis
play, but of the New Years celebra-
ton by the humble folk of Japan. The
Japanese people are always interesting
and so are their customs, especially
their holiday customs. In our paper
this week, on another page, you will
find Toashi Kato's description Of Jap
anese New Year celebration. It is one
Of the several big features we have ar
ranged for and will please all our read
ers. Beside the entertaining charac-
teristic, it is also instructive. Read 1t
aloud to the children. And, by the
way, you can read everything in this
newspaper to the children. 1t is strict
ly home newspaper and there is moth
ing in it to degrade. OF late, we have
been introducing some new features
like this Japanese story, and we trust
that our efforts are being appreciated.
If they are, tell your friends about the

New Designed Gold Pieces Being
soudht FOR Christmas.

Those who are planning on distrib-
uting gold at Christmas time for gifts,
may with little extra trouble distrib-
ute gold pieces Of Uncle Sans coinage
bearing the new design. providing they
are fortunate enough in securing them.
During the past few days repeated re-
quests for these new coins have been
made by many who intend giving the
yellow stuff at Christmas time.
The new money Is in $3.50, S., SO
and $40 pieces. One who is familiar
enough with money Of this kind to be
able to distinguish between the ap-
pearance of the new ones, and the old
coins, say the new coins differ mostly
in the drawings of the eagle. The
new eagle is said to greatly resemble
the appearance Of duck.
The $3.50 gold pieces have been quite
rare until the new issue appeared.

In every department and outstanding

Santa Claus was very busy all day
and fortunately was able to reach all
the places in good season and present
the mum erous ones with tokens of the
season.
The exercises Of the Kindergarten
were held early in the afternoon ano were
attended by an exceptionally large num-
ber and the manner in which the little
ones took their parts was worthy of the
hearty applause each was accorded.
A great amount Of credit is due each

would be satisfactory, and they will

.frOze 10 Death
on Sand Beach.
Michael Dunn, an Employee Of John
Harry's Camp, the Victim.

Wednesday afternoon another grue-
some discovery was made, when search
ers found the dead and frozen body Of
Michael Dunn, lying upon the shore Of
the bay in the vicinity Of Sand Beach,
on the road leading from L'Anse to
Pequaming.
From reports, it appears that the
young man was employed as an assist
ant in the cook camp at John Harry's
logging camp and had left Saturday
last for Pequaming for the purpose of
bringing some supplies from there to
the camp, accompanied by another en-
ployee. While absent they became in.
toxicated and when returning lost one
another. Dunn, it appears, started
out for camp and when near the road
leading to it, apparently became con-
fused and took the road leading to
L'Anse instead of the one going to the
camp. Then, becoming thirsty, he
must have attempted to take a drink
from the lake, and while so doing be-
came wet by wave, which chilled him
SO that he was unable to assist himself
further, and under other conditions fell
asleep and died from the exposure.
When he did not return to the camp
searchers were sent out and on
Wednesday were rewarded by the find,
ing of the body as above stated.
The unfortunate young man was
about 22 years of age and had been in the
United States but short time, having
come to Marquette last July and
stopped with his aunt, Mrs. William
Hogan of that city, coming later to
L'Anse and securing work in Pequam-
ing. He is a native of the Cobalt dis
trict in Canada and it is understood
that his parents still reside there. He
was considered good man in the camp
and that such misfortune should have
occurred to him seems pity.
The remains were brought here for
examination and preparation for ship
or burial and word sent to Marquette
Thursday to the yoong mans aunt.
During the Afternoon q message was
received requesting that the remains
be shipped to Marquette, the same be-
ing done on the 4:50 train.

In the future, anyone who wishes to
entertain few friends may not bait
them to come out in the cold night by
offering inducements in prizes Of meer-
schaum pipes. hand painted plates, soft
cushions and such. That Is the host
may not send his invitations through
the mails and get away with it.
Society in many cities and villages
is all in furry over this ruling. which
has been brought to the attention Of
hostesses. In Minneapolis the officials
have placed the lid on bridge whist
parties, the euchre party. and likewise
the cinch party; also any other form of
game where favors are offered to sue
cessful players.
Postoffice officials are not yet ready
to say whether prosecutions would fol-
low in case the host concealed the fact
that prizes were to be given. The rul-
ing is in substance that no mention of
prizes may be made in letters sent
through the mail.
"A section of the postal regulations,
which is merely new application of the
lottery law, and which was approved
September Is, 1903, says:
mo paper, letter, postal card or cir
cular concerning any so-called gift con-
cert, or similar enterprise offering
prizes. dependent upon lot or chance.
and no list of the drawings at any lot
terry or similar scheme shall be carried
through the postoffice or by any letter
carrier. Violators upon conviction
shall be guilty of misdemeanor, pun
ishabie by q fine not greater than $500,
or imprisonment for not more than one
year"
