RETURNS s7oo HE STOLE.
Ex-Officer of O. U. A. NJ. Says His
 Conscience Troubled Him.

Washington. N. l.. May 16.- From some unidentified person War ren Council. No Is, o. U. A. M., has received nearly $700. The amount, it is said. was due the organization from a former official. The money was in bills and was received by mail by Jacob H. Hahn, financial secretary of the council.
 An unsigned and undated note stated that several years ago the writer was an officer of the organiza- ton and appropriated some of its funds. He said his conscience had troubled him and he had worked hard for several years to save the money he sent. which represented the principal and interest.
 Warren council is one of the larg- est in the state, having 500 mem- bers. The money will be used in furnishing a new lodge room.

Has Narrow Escape.

Saturday last, while driving down
Ontonagon street in Baraga, A. B.
Gomez had q mishap which disabled him
from work for several days. As he was
about half way down the hill his horse
stumbled and broke the check rein,
which allowed the harness to fall to
the animals heels.
Without warning the horse kicked
the dash from the buggy. Mr.. Gomez, in
an attempt to save himself from being
kicked jumped to the ground. In his
efforts to get out Of the rig he became
entangled and fell heavily to the ground.
The horse started to run and dragged
him some distance severely wrenching
Mr.. Gomez. Breaking away the animal
ran as far as the Cosgrove livery barn,
where it was finally captured. Repairs
were made and Mr.. Gomez continued on
toward home without further mishap.

Fire In
Blacksmith Shop.
Prompt Action Of firemeA Prevent
What Might Have Been
Serious Conflaeration.

Friday evening at about $50 o'clock
the residents Of this village were arous-
ed from their homes by the alarm of
fire.
Upon investigation it was found to be
in the Sicotte blacksmith and carriage
shops at the foot of Broad street.
The fire had originated near the forge
on the west side of the building and had
crept along the wall until it had reach
ed the second floor of the building used
as paint and carriage shop.
Quick action on the part of the fire.
men soon had the flames under control,
and averted more serious confagra-
ton, owing to the fact that had the
flames gained greater headway, the
National Pole Co.'S yards, which are in
close proximity, would have been greatly
endangered.
AS it is the loss will be normal, and
the most will be caused by the large
quantity of water used to suppress the
flames.

Breaks Thruosh Lake Ice.

From Ne toria comes the report of
the narrow escape from drowning
which John Domme er had the fore part
of the week. Mr.. Dommer left Nestoria
to go to his camp and while en- route
crossed small lake in the forest which
was apparently frozen solid. When about
hundred yards from the shore line the
ice gave away and he was precipitated
into the water.
With a great amount of difficulty he
reached solid spot in the frozen sheet
and by rolling and creeping along man..
aged to reach the shore.
From here it was only short distance
to his camp and fastening he was soon
alongside rousing fire endeavoring to
thaw himself out.

First Quarterly Conference.

The First Quarterly Conference of
L'Anse, Pequaming and M. 4. Mission
churches was held in L'Anse church
Monday afternoon, District Superintend-
ent James Pascoe, presiding.
For some unaccountable reason the
attendance of the members of the board
of directors was noticeably spase. Not
withstanding, the general routine of
business was carried out, and the reports
from the various committees and officers
heard.
Aside from this and the fixing of the
pastors salary for the ensuing year but
little else came before the meeting.
The second quarterly conference will
be held some time during February
month.

Find Bones
Of Dead Man.
A. Gan, Of Pequamins, and Partners
Make Gruesome Find While
Out Hunting.

Wednesday morning at about 11:30
O'Clock A. Gail and party of hunters
made one Of the most gruesome discov-
cries which has been recorded in many
days.
1t appears that member of the
party had wounded deer and the bal
apce set out from camp to assist in 10
eating the animal. When about fifty
feet to the west side of the tote road
which leads to the Slate quarry dock in
the Huron Bay District, Mr.. Gail came
upon pair of mans pants. Upon in
vestigating he discovered several bones
in close proximity and upon examina-
ton proved to be the bones from the
upper portion Of a human beings leg, q
part of the hip bone, few pieces of
the back bone and another fat one
which the finder was unable to distin-
guish.
Word was sent to this village and on
Friday team was dispatched to the
scene for the purpose of bringing the
remains here for examination and dis
posal.
Who the unfortunate individual might
be is conjecture but from various re-
cent discoveries it is generally supposed
to be the bones of Neil Mcintosh, whom
it will be remembered disappeared from
that section of the country some time
ago, and has since never been heard
from, and for whom searching parties
have been frequently organized.
From all appearances the unfortunate
man had fallen victim to the numer-
Gus providers of the woods.

MANY PAY RESPECTS.


One of the largest funerals which has
ever taken place in L'Anse, occurred
Sunday afternoon last, when body of
friends and relatives of the late John
St.Arnauld, numbering into the hun
dreds, met to pay their last sad rites.
Among those who came were people
from all parts of Baraga and Houghton
county and at noon, through the insti-
CATION and supply of Walter s. Prick
ct, of Sidnaw. special train carrying
seventy-six persons arrived, with
friends of the deceased from Mar
quette. Sidnaw and other places along
the line.
The sublime appreciativeness and the
high esteem which Mr.. st. Arnauld was
held was manifest in this noble act of
Mr.. Prickett, and again portrays the
faithfulness and love for human nature
which existed between the employer
and employee.
The floral offerings which were re-
ceived also gave evidence of the warm
friendship with which the deceased was
surrounded. and while all performed
their respective functions, perhaps the
most notable was the one from Mr..
Prickett, which was a masterpiece of
floral art, and contained the favorite
expression of Mr.. st. Arnauld, namely,
"Just Right"
The funeral was held from Sacred
Heart church at O'Clock and was at
tended by the L'Anse order of use.
F. in body and large concourse of
friends and relatives.
The remains were laid at rest in the
Catholic cemetery.
Beloved by Many.
Following is letter and memoriam
which has reached our desk, which adds
one more link to the long and apparent
emily endless chain of friends with
which Mr.. St. Arnauld was surround
ed. 1t is from the pen of w. d. Flatt,

Prickett.

Dear Walter:
Your note, carrying the news of
Johns call, received. | can only say
as you remarked, 81 loved John, ''and
must say his life was not in vain; his
honesty had good influence with me;
his cheerful disposition under trying
circumstances has inspired and given
me renewed vigor many times and We
can doubtless join in blotting out Johns
few faults, but not his memory.
should like very much to give 500.
toward little monument to John, and
l wish you would see if this would be
accepted by his relatives. | would also
like to see on that monument the en-
closed.
Your friend,
w. d. FLATT.
