Misrepresentation
Mrs. J. B. Smith VIII BE Delegate TO
Great Hive Convention to
BE Held In Toledo.

Tuesday, Citizen Bank Hall, in Hough-
ton, was the scene of one of the greatest
contests which has been held in the
copper country in some time, the occas-
ion being county convention of the dele
gates from the L. o. T. M. M. hives
from Baraga and Houghton counties.
The convention was attended by about
fifty members of the order, out of which
twenty three were delegates, and Among
whom were Mrs. j. B. Smith and Miss
Laura McKindles of L'Anse and Miss
Malena Roubillard of Baraga.
The principal purpose of the convention
was to elect delegates to the meeting
of the Great Hive to be held in Toledo.
Owing to the percentage of bona-fide
members three hives were entitled to
six delegates and when the time came
for the nominations there was con-
siderable enthusiasm displayed.
Addresses upon the merits and quail
fications of the various candidates were
given by one or the other of the members
present and when the final vote was an
nounced it was found that Baraga county
had received her share of recognition in
the choice of candidate Mrs. Elizabeth
Smith.
In the selection Of Mrs. Smith, as a
delegate it is with greatest pleasure on
our part, that we voice the sentiments
of the convention, for few women are
better versed in Lady Maccabee legis-
lation than she, and her position in the
general convention will be of fruit
bearing qualities.
The following named ladies' were
elected as delegates and alternates:-
Delegates Mines. Mary Simpson,
of Calumet, Mary H. Laurel, Of Hancock,
Hannah Stoyle, of Houghton, Elizabeth
Smith, of L'Anse and Rose 'Regan of
Hancock.
Alternates-Mmes. Matilda Dunstone
of Calumet, Ida Sanquist of Hancock,
Monico Kitto of Dollar Bay and Eliza
beth WINNER of Houghton, Misses FL
sic McKernan of L'Anse and Eva Baker
of Hancock.
During the day Miss Elsie McKernan
entertained at dinner at the Douglass
House in homer of number of L'Anse
ladies who were here attending the Mac
cabees' convention and among those who
were present upon this occasion from
L'Anse were Mrs. j. B. Smith, Mrs.
John Campbell, Mrs. H. N. Aldrich,
Mrs. Robert Reynolds and Miss Laura
McKindles.

Hish school Baskss2clI Team Wins
1''er'eAol'''' cs.nsI Iea'A'p'

As result in the Swinning OF the
basketball game last week Friday even
ing, between the Houghton and L'Anse
HI. s. teams at Houghtan, the latter
team is now the champions Of the inter-
scholastic league of the upper peninsu-
la. This sounds good and it Is good,
and this honor is one which not only
the boys may be proud, but one which
every citizen should be proud.
During the past winter the members
of the team have kept together and
have endeavored in the main to give
admirers Of the sport some clean, fast
basket ball, and in their efforts to do so
have not only accomplished that, but
have won all but one of the games in
this class, thus making them the right
full champions.
In various articles appearing in. cop
per country papers it is decidedly
amusing to note the niggardly feeling
which exists as the result. While the
M. C. M. game Of Saturday evening
last, was one not to be considered as q
game of the interscholastic league and
has no direct bearing upon the final re-
suits, we cannot help but take the de-
fensive by assuming that the criticism
which was given on the game was en-
tirely uncalled for.
A few weeks ago the M. C. M. sent
q team to L'Anse and while here met
defeat. When this occurred the visit
ing team informed the locals that they
were not the regular team, but one
known as the ''Midgets. Then when
the time came for the locals to play the
return game, the 'sGladiators' pardon
for assuming title) come forward and
carry off such great honors as were
never heard of before or since. Here
we assume that it was an unsportsman-
like trick, and should not be classed as
q fair or just game. AS matter of
fact there was but one player on the
whole team, who had participated in
the game played here, and while, as
was stated in one paper that 1T seemed
almost inconceivable to those who wit
messed the game Saturday evening that
two weeks before the LAnse five had
won from the college team in the con-
test played at L'Anse but it is ex-
planned by the fact that the local team
was not then, what it is now and fur
thermore, the small hall at that town
spoiled the combination play, the strong
feature of the M. C. M. boys game,
we cannot see where there can be any
comparison or that the NJ. c. M. has
any privilege whatever to gloat over
such victory.
L'Anse has always maintained rep
utation of being defenders of good
wholesome sport and when defeated
squarely never complained, but to be
made jest of under circumstances of
this nature. is far from being fair or
justifiable; for we feel that instead of
being compelled to play the regular
team, the fair thing on the part of the
management of the M. c. M. was to
have allowed the ''Midgets" to show
where they were at on their home
court. The same circumstances now
await the Crystal Falls team in re-
turn game in Houghton tonight.

unlnue southern Railroad.

The Public Belt railroad of New
Orleans has been partially completed.
and is about ready to begin business.
This Belt railroad is unique. The en-
tire water front on both banks of the
Mississippi river belongs, with the ex-
ception of several special landing
places, to the municipality itself. In
order to enable the railroad cars to
reach the wharves and to lie along
side the ships for the transfer and ex-
change of cargoes the city Of New
Orleans, owning the river banks, has
built along the river front railroad
whose tracks connect with those Of
all the trunk lines reaching this city.
and by means of this municipal rail-
way it is simple affair to receive
cars from all the trunk lines and to
deliver cars to all these lines, and
either connect with the shipping In
the river or with the stores, ware
houses and factories in various parts
Of the city, and with which the Belt
connects.-N. o. Picayune.

Won a Desperate Fioht.

For days the citizens of Grand
Marais looked upon their village as
doomed. Great walls of fire surround
ed them. They fought 1t back with wet
blankets and buckets of water until
Gen. Wood, Commander Eaton and so
men OF the Gopher arrived and aided
in the work Of exterminating the
flames. Little by little the fire was
driven back. All day and all night the
struggle continued and when the sun
rose Thursday morning the town was
saved. The fire still burns to the
northeast and back fires will be start
ed If the wind is favorable.
Homeless settlers fed to the lake
shore for refuge with little food and
no clothing but what they wore. The
Gopher coasted along the shore pick
ing up refugees The shore was alive
with wild animals of all kinds, driven
out of the woods by the fires.
Three men forced to take refuge in
the lake were picked up. One woman
with pack on her back and sick baby
in her arms, fed three miles from her
homestead to the lake and was picked
up.
