GREAT MYSTERY
NEARLY SOLVED
SHERIFF BYERs MAKES ARREST
AT SOUTH RANGE IN CON-
NEcTIoN WITH FINDING
OF BABY GIRL.

II is believed that the mystery sur
rounding the finding of the body OF a
fully developed baby girl in the waters
of Portage Lake yesterday afternoon,
has been at least partially solved.
Acting upon a clue which had been
furnished him, Sheriff Byers went to
South Range last evening and brought
back with him Hilma Steinback, a
young woman who has only been in
this country three months. After tell
ing her story 10 the officers, II is said
there is little doubt that her testi-
mony at the inquest will go a long
way toward clearing up the mystery.
She is now being held at the county
Jail pending further investigation.
Contrary to yesterdays reports. it
has been ascertained that the child
died of strangulation, a towel having
been twisted tightly around its neck !
The body was first seen by teamster
who was watering his horses at the |
west end Of the Copper Range dock. |
He had already taken two pals of |
water from the lake for his horses
and was dipping for another pail in
which 10 wash his hands, when he no.
tied a strange bundle of rags in the
water near the dock. He called TO some
Of the brakesmen who were working
nearby and the bundle was secured by
use Of poles. Upon opening the bundle,
the body Of a baby girl was found.
II was wrapped in a Bingham apron
around which some clothes were en-
twined and the whole carefully tied
In gunny sack.
The body was taken TO Krellwitz
morgue and Chief of Police Voetsch
and Coroner Little were notified. The
following jury was impanelled: Albert
Brunette, Sr.. Pat Golden, Paul Tice.
Ed. Baird, f. F. Vigeant. Thiel Robert
son. After viewing the remains and
rearing the evidence in the case, an
adjournment was taken until next
Ionday.

FEWER men IN
MINES IN 1910
MINE INSPECTORS REPORT
SHOWS LIZA LESS MEN HAVE
BEEN EMPLOYED THIS
YEAR.

The report of Mine Inspector Peter
Dave for the year ending September
30, 1910. which was given out at the
annual meeting of the board of super
visors yesterday shows that there
were LIZA less men employed this
year than last and that this was the
smallest number employed since 1905.
The inspector reports a decrease of
five fatal accidents against the total of
the previous year. but a glance at the
figures shows that the decrease in the
number of men employed has made
the percentage of deaths higher than
that of last year. The highest per-
centage of casualties was attained In
the year 1895, the year of the great
Osceola mine fire. 1t will be remem-
bered that on the 9Th of September
OF that year, thirty men were suffo-
Gated This made the percentage for
that year about twice that of this
year the number of casualties i'm 1910
being 5S.
Previous TO 1895. two large acct.
dents are recorded that of 1898 when |
ten men We're killed by overhoist at
the Red Jacket shaft. and the year
1883, when eight men suffocated at |

REMAINS OF Old STAMP

The work Of erecting the Masonic
temple, at the corner of Portage and
Sheldon streets is fast progressing.
Old Residents Of Houghton remember
the time when the old Portage mill
stood at the same place. The ruins
OF this old mill were recently uncov-

owned by the Isle Royale Mining
company. Before the civil war. the
Portage mill was built, and at the
same time a mill was built by the
Isle Royale Mining Co. on The opposite
corner, now occupied by Hixson's
store. The copper was hauled by mules
from mine TO mill and old Cornish
heads were used I'm all the stamps.
The last mill ON the new Masonic

made and enforced I'm all the timbered

ground wherever they fell The small
timber was left, amid all this refuse.
To grow to a size that would warrant
cutting-how much of it ever was cut
can be judged by the miles of blackon-
ed stumps and charred sticks that can
be seen in days ride through any
timber region. Today it pays TO cut
any tree that will make any log at all.
