Chase by Ed. Ceske.

Even the clothesline thief observed
Thanksgiving this year. His celebra-

celebrated with an ordinary appetite
so the fellow decided TO make a bigger
meal OF it and he went over TO ice

washing waving in the evening breeze.
He had satisfied his appetite there and
was starting for home when he met
Ed. Geske in the alley. Ii was about

think of meeting anyone on a mar

Ed. was carrying two pals of water
and passed the fellow before his sus-

down and called after the fellow.

OUTLOOK FOR NEXT

MORE ORE TAKEN DOWN THIS YEAR
THAN IS NECESSARY
SEASON PRACTICALLY CLOSED
Corigan- Mckinney & Company Will
Give the Barasa Propertya Thorough
Test This Winter,

In Is review OF the ore trade for the
week the Iron Trade Review says that
the outlook for next year is unfavor-
able 10 far as the ore market is con-
<cerned. The article is as follows:
"As the lake season closes. the out
look for next year is not favorable.
One furnace interest. which for this
year bought 500. 600 tons, states that in
all probability it will not need more
than 100. 900 tons next year. as 1t has a
large tonnage on hand. Many other
interests are in similar position.
"The disposition OF vessel owners is
to end the season of navigation with
the presnt week. Insurance will expire
on Wednesday OF next week and, unless
some fancy rates are paid. no vessels
will leave port after the end OF the
present week. Some demand still ex-
lists for tonnage in the coal trade. A
jag OF orea mounting to 9. 500 tons was
offered at Marquette on Saturday with
no takers. The few vessels that are
available do not care to go after iugi-
tive cargoes unless there is good profit
in e. A single charter was made on
Saturday to carry coal to Marquette at
80 cents which is an advance Of %
cents over the regular rate. The lead
ing ore shippers are practically through
