Another Soul Called Home.

Friday morning the residents of
L'Anse and vicinity were greatly surpris-
ed when it was learned that William
Morrow, one of the well known
citizens of the M. E. Mission, had
passed peacefully away at $50 a. m.
at the home of Charles Curtis.
Deceased was born at Sault Ste Marie,
in 1861, and in July, 1884, removed to
L'Anse M. E. Mission, where hs re-
sided until his death.
The cause of his death is unknown to
US but Mr.. Morrow apparently seemed
to be in the best Of health until two
weeks ago, when he was compelled to
take his bed, where he remained to the
end.
Mr.. Morrow leaves to mourn his
demise a father, wife, and number
of relatives, residing at the Mission.
The funeral will take place at 1890
a. m. Sunday morning, from the M. E.
Mission church, Rev. G. M. Merrill
officiating. Interment will take place in
the Pinery cemetery.

In Regard to Baby Nelson.

AS was stated in our last issue the
news of the death of baby Nelson, the
infant son of Mr.. and Mrs. G. E. Case,
was given us just as we were going to
press, and actual information was
beyond US at the time.
Since then we learn that the bright
little fellow had been i'll but a few
days, and on the morning of his death,
the throat had become so badly swollen
and clogged that when the kind hands
of loved ones were about to quench his
thirst, strangulation took place and
before relief could be rendered he
succumbed.
He was bright and cheerful baby, of
two years, and pride Of the home,
and the vacancy left by his taking
away is sad one.
The funeral was held Sunday after
noon and was attended by many of the
friends Of the family. Interment was
in L'Anse cemetery.

The Farmers Institute.

The officers of the Baraga County
Farmers Institute Society are very
active at present in the way of making
arrangements for the institute to be
held in Baraga, Monday next. There is
special effort being made on the
part oflthe management to make this
institute banner one and from the
programme published last week we are
lead to assume that it will be mighty
interesting.
STEMS orchestra has been engaged
and will furnish some delightful
numbers between the addresses and
the various speakers have apparently
chosen subjects which will find interest
for all who attend.
An urgent request is made that every
farmer and citizen be present.

Prominent Salesman Dead.

John Powers, one of the most popular
and prominent salesman, who for many
years visited L 'Anse during his journeys
passed away at his late home in
Isepeming, Tuesday morning, April
18th.
His demise, while great shock to.
his many friends, was not unexpected,
as it was known that he could not
recover. Mr.. Powers had been patient
sufferer for several months past and it
was known for several weeks that it.
was question of only short time
when he would pass away. His death
was due to complication of diseases
from which he had suffered for three
years. During his early sickness he
spent some time in the South, seeking
relief. For some little time following
his return his condition was much inn
proved, but his health was never fully
restored.
Mr.. Powers was known and highly es-
>teemed throughout the upper peninsular,
where he travelled for several years for
Franklin Macveagh & Co., Wholesale
grocers, Of Chicago.

Pronounced a Success.

Monday evening the people of this
community apparently took advantage
of the closing of the Lenten season in
its fullest form, if we are to Judge from
the turnout which was given L'Anse
Hose Co. No. 1, at its post-Lenten ball
on the night of the above date.
There were in the neighborhood of
forty to fifty couples present and for
many hours they tripped the light fam
tastic to the excellent music of the
Quincy orchestra, of six pieces.
The supper given by the members of
the company is said to have been the
best ever produced by them and was
relished by all who partook.
A neat sum was added to the Golfers
of the organization by the occasion.

L'Anse Pioneer Dies In Hancock.

Sunday evening last, relatives of Jo-
seph Kerredge residing in L'Anse were
in receipt of message announcing his
sudden death, which occurred at the
home of his son. William, in Hancock.
Mr.. Kerredge was born in Suffolk,
England, February 26, 1880. From
England he came to Canada, some So
years ago, where he resided for per-
iod of three and one-half years.
Upon removing from Canada, he To-
Gated in the copper country and secured
work at the Pewabic mine in the ca
pacity of watchman. For number of
years he was in the saw mill business,
having contract at the canal. At the
conclusion of this exploit, he came to
L'Anse, where he resided and entered
the service of the M. H. & o. railroad
company. Later he was an employee
of Messrs Smith & Co., in their gen.
eral merchandise store.
After few years of service here, he
returned to Hancock and associated
himself in business with his son Will
liam. in hardware store.
For ten years past Mr.. Kerredge has
lived retired life and had enjoyed per-
feet health until of late, when heart
trouble seemed to have taken hold upon
him, and which finally resulted in his
death.
He is survived by one son and q
| daughter. and by his death chain Of
four generations in the Kerredge fam
lily has now been broken.
Deceased was man Of pleasant
companionship and staunch friendship
and his death is generally mourned by
large circle Of acquaintances.

The Late Mrs. Luke WEIGH.

Owing to the lateness of the hour
prior to publication last week we were
unable to give much concerning the
death and history of the deceased and
and therefore devote such space as is
necessary in this issue.
The immediate cause of her death
was chronic stomach trouble which
affected her heart.
The remains were taken to Crystal
Falls, Friday morning and lay in state
at her beautiful home on Fifth street.
Mrs. Welch was born in Germany in
1852, making her age at the time of
her death 81 years. She moved with
her parents to Rockland in her child
hood and was married to Mr.. Welch at
that place. They moved to L'Anse
and in 1894 went to Crystal Falls
where they erected beautiful
residence and chose that place for
their home.
Since the death of Mr.. Welch, three
years ago, Mrs. Welch has spent much
of the time, especially in the winters,
in the west and south.
The deceased was woman of exem-
plary character and loving DISPOSE
tion. She had charm of manner that
won her the friendship of her towns
people and her death is regretted by
everyone in the community.
The funeral was held Saturday fore
noon last from the Church of the
Guardian Angel at Crystal Falls; the
remains being inferred beside those of
her husband in the cemetery across the
river.

CHURCH FAIR GRAND SUCCESS.
Banner Attraction Given By LADIES'
Aid Society Of M. =. Church
Carries of Honors.

Now that the Annual Church Fair
has come and gone, we are called upon
to voice the general sentiment of the
host Of people that attended.
To say that it was magnificent would
be putting it mildly, but we must say
that it was one Of the greatest and best
events which has taken place in L'Anse
in some years.
For the benefit Of those who did not
attend, we will 60 back and try and
give you an insight into the many
pleasures which thronged the L'Anse
Opera House on the evening of April
18th.
Promptly at $50 o'clock the doors
were opened wide and as one walked in
and noticed the extremely fine supper
which was being served by the ladies,
he must needs be wooden man if he
didn't sit down and satisfy his cravings.
Having paid his due homage to the la
dies in this manner, his time from
thence on until the end would be we'll
occupied with visiting the various
booths which lined both sides of the
hall.
The booths were very attractive this
year, not only on account of their art
istic arrangement and decoration, but
because there were 80 many good
things to be had. To give a detailed
description of the Fair would take
more space than our columns permit, so
we must content ourselves with saying
that they were absolutely the finest we
have seen in long, long time.
Perhaps the most attractive feature
of the evening was the Vaudette, un-
der the dictatorship of Fred R. Morphy.
His trained animals were certainly fine
and reflect much patience and perse-
verance on his part. The tunes played
on the musical glasses by his wife and
himself were the best ever. Mr.. Nor
ply was ably assisted by Lean E. .Selden,
of L'Anse, who delighted the audience
with his contortionist acts, and Fred
Strickland and Chauncey St. German,
of Baraga, in the black-face comedies.
Much credit is due the Ladies' Aid
Society, and especially Mrs. ]. B..
Smith, their president, for the grand
success of this event, and we must say
that they are well deserving of all the
compliments they are receiving from
those who attended.
The society added the tidy sum of
$3.50 to their treasury by this event,
which will go long way toward aiding
them in the good work which they are
doing.
