NEWS and GOSSIP FROM UPPER PENINSULA

/ Dietrich's handwriting. but Dietrich
claimed that he had made II on the
order of Beddow, though Beddow de-
MED any connection with the mat
| ter.
The seventh count relates TO false
entry on the draft register by which
the bank was defrauded out of $1,000.
The evidence in this matter showed
that Larson had borrowed draft for
IS. 600 from the cashier of the Bank
of Ironwood which had been repaid
the following day by draft for like
amount on the City National Bank of
Duluth, which draft had been made
and signed by Beddow as assistant
cashier and given to the cashier of
the Bank of Ironwood by Beddow In
Curry hotel after banking hours When
this draft was entered by Larson In
the draft register the next day. II was
entered as $500. instead of $4,000. Bed
dow footed up the column of drafts is
sued for that day. the total of which
was something over $1,000. AS Bed
dow had made the draft for $4,000
and the next day footed il as $500 into
a column the total of which was less
than $S,000,it was the contention of
the government that he must have
known that the original entry by Lar
son and the footing, made by himself,
was false.
The only possible Interpretation to
put on the verdict is that the jury
agreed that Beddow had not embez-
zled or misapplied any of the banks
money or credits to his own use, but
that in making these false entries he
must have known that they represent
ed crooked transactions on the part
of his superior officers, and as such,
under the national banking laws, he
had no right To make them. and COM
mitted crime by so doing.
Under the federal law the mini
mum penalty for each of the counts of
the indictment of which he was found
guilty is five years Imprisonment, and
the maximum penalty ten years i'm
prisonment for each count. This means
that five years is the lightest sentence

day afternoon by Observer II. r. Cow

full of surprises. \ comparison OF the
data for last month with that OF the
other nine Junes recorded since the
opening Of the local weather bureau
indicates clearly that the month was
by far the hottest and the dryest ever
experienced in this section.
The mean temperature for June, as
indicated by the figures at the station
in Houghton is 59.5 degrees but the
mean OF last month was by SO degrees
the meanest mean this section has ever
known. for the average temperature
for the thirty days was IS degrees. The
highest point reached was on the twen-
ty-ninth day of the month, when the
mercury passed trihe over IS de-
grees and the lowest was on the third
OF the month, the temperature on that
day being "a degrees. Right here is
one OF the peculiar things about the
temperature OF last month. While the
average was high for the month. new
eTtheless a new low mark was estab-
blished as the "a indicated above was
the lowest point 10 which the mercury
had descended in any of the ten Junes
on record here.
The highest minimum temperature
for any one day last month was IS de- +,
grees. This occurred on the last da, |
OF the month and it was then five de-
grees hotter than the highest previous |
recorded minimum temperature for

Of sport at the Amphidrome on the af-
ternoon and evening of independence
day. one of the largest lists of en-
tries FOR a one-day tournament ever
seen in the Copper Country is already

that many others not yet entered will
make their appearance at the big pa
vilion on the day Of the tournament,
ready to weigh in and try for a piece
Of the purse of $3.50, which is to be
divided into four prizes, SIS, $50. $35
and 500, being the amounts of the va
rious prizes.

to the affair because of the entrance Of
Chris Person, the Houghton catch-as-
catch-can wrestler. Among the other
well known men Of the mat to be seen
in these contests are Ziehr and Olson
of Calumet and Young Father" Ko-
ley of Hurontown. Others To take

PATRIOTIC STORE WINDOWS.
Houghton Merchants Dress Up Stores
In Honor OF independence Day.

Many of the Houghton business
houses have decorated or are decorat-
ing the show windows OF their estab-
lishments in commemoration Of the
Fourth Of July. All the windows so
decorated are brilliant affairs in which
the national colors play an important
part Probably the most beautifully
trimmed as well as the most odd eff
fects has been obtained by John
Roche, a clerk in the employ Of the
Portage Lake Hardware company.
Mr.. Roche has had only six months
experience in this dressing game but
in that time he has produced some
very clever windows, one of which
was the representation Of steel
bridge bearing a train OF cars. As
good as was that effort the present
window Is much better This repre-
sents a full-rigged battleship and the
entire effect Is gained by the clever
employment Of articles sold in the
store. In the background is a bridge

estrians are 10 be seen passing

Shooting Held Accidental
John Bodelick. who shot and wound
ed John Koos at North Escanaba, the
shooting being an accident, il was
claimed, will not be prosecuted. He
was taken before Justice Chaser for a
hearing and as result he was dis
charged. Koos, the man who was shot
was i'm court and his story of the
shooting appeared To bear out Bode-
lick's explanation that it was purely
accidental. one remarkable feature
Of the case is the rapidity with which
Koos recovered from the wound which
il was ut first thought might prove
fatal. After being i'm the Delta coun-
ty hospital but one week he had so
far recovered that he was able TO take
his departure from the institution. The
bullet from the revolver fired by Bode-

WHERE TO Spend
FOURTH OF JULY
HoUGHToN PEOPLE HAVE GREAT
VARIETY OF PLACES FROM
WHICH TO CHOOSE PLACE
TO CELEBRATE.

Where are you going 10 spend the
Fourth? This is the question that
nearly everyone asked nearly everyone
else in Houghton today and il was
something OF a relief to hear some
other query than, is II hot enough
for you?" which has had a great vogue
during the past few days. The reply
of almost everyone to whom this ques-
tion was put was something TO the ef-
feet that Il havn't made up my mind
yet" This naturally leads one 10
reach the conclusion that there are
hundreds who have really not deter
mined just which one OF the many
points of interest they viii strike for
on Monday.
There is really nothing wonderful
about this. because there are so many
ways In which one who has the day 10
himself can amuse himself and so
very many nice places 10 which the
pleasure or rest seeker can go that il
is not strange that SO many are in a
dilemma as to which way 10 turn.
GeNeDrdtionS IN lOHhS.
The celebration in Houghton will be
limited almost entirely TO the Cornish
wrestling tournament at the Amphi-
drome. And then there is the cele-
bration at Hurontown. The people OF
the hil town have been making great
preparations for this affair. There
will be a Cornish wrestling tourna-
ment at Hurontown, as well as a base
ball game and a great list Of minor
athletic events open 10 all who wish
to enter, with a splendid list Of cash
prizes for those who excel in these
events.
The great celebration in Hancock
viii doubtless be attended by many
from this side Of the lake. There are
many other good features TO the Han
cock celebration. which will attract
a large number OF people from Hough-
ton and other places.
Calumet's celebration is also going |
to draw many Houghton people. as
there are many who have signified |
their intention Of going TO that place
for the day. Atlantic has also been
making a strong bid for the favorit- |
ism OF the Houghton people and it is
probable that the range town win be
visited by many from this village. |
Other places giving celebrations are
and Beacon Hill and Freda, |
the two latter places joining hands in ]
one grand celebration Of the day.
At the Parks and Resorts.
White City, because OF its location |
and the ease with which ii can be
reached. is the resort 20 which many
people viii go for the day.
Freda and Electric parks are also
making great plans for the entertain
ment Of the crowds which always fire.
uuent these places on this holiday
The Copper Range will run trains to
Freda park for the accommodation Of
those who wish TO spend the day there.
This park will be the scene Of the joint
of the stamp mill towns in
that vicinity. which will be a great
affair. At Electric park there will be
special music and free dancing in the
big pavilion.
Up at the Canal in the afternoon
here will be an exhibition Of Captain
life saving crew and the
steamer Plowboy will take the crowds
up to this place. which is ever popu-
ar with the picnic parties.

REAL HELP.

If the daily papers would hush
their mutual chickering's and per-
sonal gibes, one of the other, and
would expend their united breath
instead, to promote Mutual Aid
Society" for their sometimes (oft-
times) poorer brethren, reporters,
printers, "devils," etc., it would be
far better and something of which
to boast even, and to be justly
proud. Almost every craft and
profession has something of the
sort, something substantial to fall
back upon, in times of sickness or
pilikia of any nature.
p. S.-We are adverse to un-
happy illusions, even amongst
journalists. 1t is an n-Christian
and uncharitable spirit, and causes

Is waitin' right at home for me.

Mr.. Roosevelt, former President,
does not today consider himself
other than a plain clothes citizen
of America Gust like you and me).
We all know what Grant was and
we know what Roosevelt (Taft) is,
fairly we'll but, in so far really as
to the honors that are thrust upon
ex-Presidents, now or in the past,
he is but the fgure-head. 1t is to
their country the homage is render
ed, matter of mere diplomacy,
and no ones head is ever turned by
the same.

Through The Outlook I wish to

nrOuSn ne OutlOOk WISH to
make statement to my fellow
Americans regarding what has oc-
Cured in connection with the Vati-
can. I am sure that the great
majority of my fellow citizen
Catholics, quite as much as Pro-
testants, will feel that I acted in the
only way possible for an American
to act, and because of this very fact
I most earnestly hope that the in
cident will be treated in matter
of course way as merely personal,
and above all as not warranting the
slightest exhibition of rancor or
bitterness.
"Among my best and closest
friends are many Catholics. The
respect and regard of those of my
fellow Americans who are Catho-
lies are as dear to me as the re-
spect and regard of those who are
Protestants. On my journey
through Africa I visited many
Catholic as we'll as many Protestant
missions. AS I look forward to
telling the people at home all that
has been done by Protestants and
Catholics alike, as I saw it in the
field of missionary endeavor, it
would cause me real pang to have
anything said or done that would
hurt or give pain to my friends,
whatever their religious belief.
But any merely personal considera-
tions are of no consequence in this
matter. The important considera-
ton is the avoidance of harsh and
bitter comment such as may excite
mistrust and anger between and
among good men.
"The more an American sees of
other countries the more profound
must be his feelings of gratitude
that in his own land there is not
merely complete federation, but the
heartiest good will and sympathy
between sincere and honest men of
different faiths-good will and
sympathy so complete that in the
innumerable daily relations of our
American life Catholics and Pro-
testants meet together and work to-
gether without thought of the diff
ference of creed being even present
in their minds.
"This is condition so vital to
our national we'll being that moth
ing should be permitted to leopard
ize it. Bitter comment and criti-
cism, acrimonious attack and de-
fense, are not only pro6tless, but
harmful, and to seize upon such an
incident as this as an occasion for
controversy would be wholly indie
fensible and should be frowned up

Another good word for the influ-
ence of books! A few years ago
salads were cultivated crudely in
England, when cultivated at all.
Last year, at least, one farmer
reared $4,000 worth of salad plants
on a single acre, and the French
fashion of rearing dandelion and
chicory in tubs, sometimes arrang-
ing the plants in spokes with hub
of mushrooms = and sometimes
bleaching them-all this comes
from the influence of sixpenny
book called "The French Garden. !"
The gardeners laughed or sneered
when it was first published by The
