According to the Fire Warden.

Fire Warden Miles reports the whole
stretch of timber lands between here

miles away have been burning this
week, says the Ontonagon Herald.
Fire started early Sunday morn

Men did all they could to keep the
flames down but the wind being so
strong all the time that no Roadway
could. be made.
The loss to the owners of the lands
and timber is immense. The Green
wood Lumber company have lost
many cords OF bark and over mill
lion feet of decked logs, besides thous-
ands of feet standing timber. The
Noble Corwin Lumber company have
lost some standing timber. 1t is inn
possible to estimate the entire loss at
this time.
The fire was so bad on Tuesday
that hundreds of men from this VIII
lage were sent out to do what was

Survey office of Detroit. Is i'm charge
of the work and he began his investi-
cations Saturday. starting at Sault
ste. Marie. IL will be several weeks
before he reaches Portage Lake. The
entire lake coast will be gone over
carefully. Ills cruise viii be on the
steamer Amaranth.
Mr.. Mouter will not only examine
every harbor, but will also note the
conditions OF the coast, for the pur-
pose of marking all dangerous shoals.
He will note conditions as he finds
them compared with the data given

changes in lights and harbor features
as he goes along.
1t has been several years since n
thorough investigation has been made
by the lake survey service, such as
Mr.. Moiter is now making, and his

liable to navigators.
The photographic department, has
gathered a large amount of valuable
information along theis line, and by

HoToN LAD IN TROUBLE.
May Be Sent to Industrial School for
Ontonagon Burglaries.

Sheriff O'Rourge of Ontonagon coun-
~ went to Rockland this week where
he arrested a young man by the name
of Alexander Martin, age Is years
who has been living i'm this village al
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Perron, but
has been absent from home for a few
days, having claimed to Mr.. and Mrs
Perron that he was visiting some rel
atives at Rockland, says the Ontona-
gon Herald.
Sheriff O'Rourke brought the
young man to Ontonagan and is keep
ing him at the Jail until some dis
posal of him can be arranged for.
He admitted that it was he who en-
tered into Mr.. Emmons' store. also
into Woodbury's which were recently
burglarized, but says that he did not
go into Labyak's meat market. He
also admits that he took some guns
from Mr.. Labrie.
The boy was taken from the Good
Win Farm and Mr.. Perron had given
him good home and has tried to
teach him trade, but the boy does
not seem to want to be good. A few
weeks ago Martin broke into Mr..
Perron's safe and took money there
from and Mr.. Perron was kind enough
to let him have another trial, but it
seems that he cannot keep straight.
Arrangements are being made to
have him tried in Juvenile court before
Probate Judge Van Slyck and it is
thought that he will be sent to Lam
sing Industrial school.
