When President Roosevelt goes to

prepared warm water she threw the
water out of the window, took a gas

them down, She finished each in
two minutes. She said it was the
quickest way to clean them"
The judge agreed it was a cruel
way TO treat children and granted
the divorce.

(SVen Hedin, in Harpers Magazine
Once in Thibet we passed two young
lamas from Khan. They did not
walk like ordinary pilgrims, but lit
orally measured off the distance with
their own bodies. Lying down full
length on the ground they would
join their hands over their heads and
read prayer, then make a mark on
the road, arise, join their hands to-
gether again over their heads, and
muttering a prayer take a few steps
forward to the mark, to fall full
length once again and repeat the en-
tire ceremony all the way around the
mountain. Performed in this man
ner by prostration" the journey
took about twenty days. The two
lamas we saw had only done about
half the distance, and they contem
plated doing the whole Journey
twice. One of them was to return
there after having completed his
duty as pilgrim. The other-he was
barely twenty years old-was to pass

ONLY ONE RETURNS TO TELL
Pretty SeNtette Set Out to Serve the
Lord by Following Holy
Ghost Creed.

Scattered throughout South Ameri-
ca and India and other Oriental
countries six girls, members of the
Holy Ghost Society" who left Phil
adeIphia and New York a year ago,
are eking out a precarious existence
in missionary work. Only one of the
little band, Mabel Collins, has sue

only after terrible hardships.
Starting from Philadelphia a pref

looks like a woman of fifty. One
girl of their number, she says, died
on the pampas Of Argentina, one
girl is working in a factory in Bue-

to the same set is laying ties on a
South American railroad. Two girls
are in Indian harems and one was
captured by hill tribes.

OUR HALF
COMPLETED.
Work on New L'Anse-skanee Road
completed-Arvon Has but
Little Len.

Tuesday morning saw the compile
tion OF the work in connection with
the L'Anse end OF the new L'Ause
and Skanee Shore road, which has
been undergoing construction dur
ing the past three months.
The new road in question inter
sects the old or main road at point
about one fourth OF q mile from
Black river and bearing in an east
erly direction extends along to the
distance OF about four miles to q
point where within q few days II
will be met by laborers in the en-
ploy OF Arvon township who are cut
ting and building a similar piece
from Aryon township toward
L'Anse.
The work has been under the ef-
ficient superintendency Of Highway
Commissioner Eugene Gotta, and
with the able assistance OF q number
of faithful laborers has constructed
piece OF roadway which the tax
payers may well be proud OF. The
roadbed is thirty feet wide and to a
combined distance Of sixty-six feet
the trees on either side have been
cut away, which not only beauties
the highway, but adds greater safe
ty to the traveller and brings less
expense to the township in the fu:
ture, caused by wiudfalls and other
disagreeable inconyeniences which
ordinarily impede progress on the
average country road.
The new road when all completed
will not only lessen the distance
bet ween L'Ause and Skanee but will
be much more convenient for those
who seek that vicinity in the hunting
and fishing seasons. The new road
way lays in the heart Of the fishing
grounds and the drive along tin the
summer will be one Of great enjoy
ment.
The action of the townships in the
construction OF this new highway is
a commendsble one and those who
have had the matter in charge are to
be congratulated upon the success OF
the undertaking.

POL[ YARDS
RESUME WORK.


Tuesday morning Witnessed the
resumption Of work at the receiving
and shipping yards Of the @. H.
Worcester Co.. and the National
Pole Co. located in this village.
At the Worcester yards number
Of hands are employed 10 receiving
and decking a large quantity Of
poles and shingle cedar which Is the
product of the 6. D. Murphy camp.
This supply runs well ipto the
thousands and is 4 lending an ap-
pearance Of general activity 10 that
vicinity.
At the National Pole Co.'S yards
there is even greater activity, as
both the work OF receiving and
shipping has commenced.
During the present week ship
ment Of 6fty carloads OF poles was
made 70 the Central Union Tele-
phone Company Of Ohio. and it Is
expected that fro@ now on many
shipment, OF equal size. II not larg-
or, will continue to follow in the
wake Of this one.
The resumption Of business at
these stations mean considerable to
this village, as II has become one of
the most important industries OF the
place and when work at the yards is
suspended it is keenly felt through
out eli business circles, as both en-
ploy local labor and until this year
gave employment continuously
throughout the year.
Never in the history OF either COM
pany has the supply on hand been
as great as at present and the fact
that the market has once more
started to move them Is an item
which will be greatly enjoyed by
the companies who own the stock.

Telephone Companies
Reach Agreement.
Barasa County Telephone Company
and Michigan Telephone Com
pauy VIII Merge.

Wednesday morning an importaut
meeting was held at which time
Manager Barry, of Detroit, and Div.
Supt. Baker, OF Marquette, repre-
senting the Michigan Telephone Co.
and Messrs. N Voetsch OF L'Anse
and A. w. Stark, OF Baraga, met for
the purpose OF reaching some de-
cision in connection with the future
Of the local systems which are now
In use in Baraga and L'Anse.
The chief object OF the meeting
was for the purpose Of coming to an
agreement concerning the leasing
Of the present phones existing in
both towns, and operated by the
Michigan phone people.
For some time past a satisfactory
arrangement could not be obtained
by the Baraga County Telephone
company for the purchase Of the
Michigan company's phones and
not until Wednesday was such made.
AS the matter now stands the To-
cal company will be granted q lease
Of the machines and appurtenances
for q period Of years and also thru
the transaction will be able to give
patrons connection through the
system with the long distance SER
vice, and unless something unfor-
seen occurs will take over the sys-
TEN on March 1st.
AS soon as the transfer takes
place the Baraga County Telephone
company will begin construction
work and install phones in L'Anse
to the number of fifteen or twenty.
which with the twelve now operat-
ing under the management of the
Michigan Phone Company, will not
only be profitable but on efficient
service.
Baraga now has some thirty-six
phones installed and when spring
arrives about six or eight more wi.i
be put in, which, combined with
those established in other places
throughout the county, will aid ma
terially in the transaction OF busi.
ness and fill long felt want in Bar
aga county.
1t is also the plan OF the local CON-
pany to so arrange ia the spring
that the farmers residing in the out
skirts OF the villages will be enabled
to take phones, but as the plans OF
the company has not fully matured
it is impossible to say just what ide
they will follow in this respect.
BY the greement reached
Wednesday between the two compa-
MES, the future success of the Bara-
ga Telephone Co. is now assured and
the management is to be congratu-
lated upon its success in gaining It's
poirt in such an important matter.
