LA CROSSE, Wis, June 27.-Only
three persons out Of 1900 lost their
lives Saturday night In the burning
on the Mississippi river of the excur'
sion steamer j. s., according to Off.
GERS OF the Acme Packet Co., owners
OF The vessel, after a careful search
and rechecking oc passengers yester'
day.
While Ave other persons were Sc
verely hurt in the panic and 80 others
we're cut and bruised In escaping from
the boat before IL burned to the va.
ter, those who went through the ex-
perience of fire and water declare
that the small number OF casualties
seems marvellous TO them.
Prompt work by the crew and cool
headed men among the passengers, In
controlling the frantic passengers az
ter the first alarm of fire was sounded,
was all that prevented hundreds of
persons from Jumping into the river in
mid-stream.
Mrs. Emma Randall of New AL

through the yeanssb OpstAS edge OF the
decks. Twenty men had arms out
stretched to grasp her when she plung

locked In the boats brig In the hold
for disorderly conduct, and in the ex
element no one thought to release
him. Ills charred body is in the river
with the hulk OF the steamer, which
sank after the boat had burned to the
water.
Although the scramble to shore on
Bad Axe island vas hazardous and un-
pleasant, comparative order prevailed
All night long boats carried the
stranded passengers to Lansing, Ia,
where most OF them live, but 1t was

The loss to the Acme Packet Co. is

This machine, backed by all the
large corporations and all the state

schemes of the large railroads, bank

serves in the halls of congress, as we'll
as in the Massachusetts legislation.
1T is reported that in his present
extremity fearing to seek reelection
on his long public record In congress
and in the state, his one hope is that
Mr.. Roosevelt may create new conf

him as an old friend. 1t is hard to

support OF one, even though friend.

QUEER VILLAGES.
Some Peculiar Ones That May Be Seer

Some Peculiar Ones That May Be Seen
In England.
The English village is very dear 10
the hearts of poets and painters, ana
thousands Of them are certainly charm
ing. A few, however, are more anus
ing than anything else-as, for In
stance, one which consists entirely OF
old railway carriages, even the chapel
being composed Of four horse trucks.
Another village, with a population OF
1,1O0 and taxed at the valuation OF
$4,000. has neither school, church nor
other public building, the only thing OF
the sort being a letter box on a pillar.
Villages with but single inhab1tant
are not unknown, one OF them Delng
Skiddaw, in Cumberland. The single
villager complains bitterly because he
cannot vote, there being no overseer to
prepare a voters list and no church or
other public building on which to pup
lish one, as the law requires. The
lonely rate payer in a NorthumDer-
land village has declined to contribute
money to maintain the roads. remark
ing that the one he has is quite good
enough for its use. In the isle OF ELY
is a little parish with about a dozen
inhabitants that has no rates. as there
are no roads or public institutions OF
any kind and consequently no ex.
penses.
Kempton, near Bradford, can proba'
bly, lay successful claim to the distinc'
ton Of being the longest village in the
world, as it straggles along the road
for distance of seven miles.
Sometimes village will entirely
disappear, having been built either OF
the edge of the crumbling cliffs thai
make part of the coast line or over al
ancient mine. One Of the latter class
is in Shropshire, and each year one
or more of the cottages tumbles as th'
earth sinks beneath it. - Harper

With the coming of the Caledonian

pairing to do her share in affording
entertainment for Umatilla county
people this year. Thus it will be
seen that the park is valuable asset
in the matter of giving the city the
prestige of being the center of enter
tainment and pleasure. People have
long since tired of the alurements
afforded by hot. dusty streets for pic
