perintendent of the livestock depart
ment of the Copper Country fair. which
will be held at the Amphidrome the
last week in September, was i'm Hough-
ton Saturday trying to hire a shingle
sawyer for the mill at winona. In his
search for n sawyer, he paused long
enough TO utter a few thoughts about
the prospects for the Copper Country
fair this year.
Mr.. Fnnegan is of the opinion that
the exhibits at the fair this year will
be ahead Of those of any former year,
despite the dry weather. He declares
that the corn which will be exhibited
by the school children of the four coun-
ties entered in the corn contest will be
a feature which will make some of the
old farmers OF this district sit up and
rub their eyes. Mr.. Finnegan anticl-
pates that this years fair will be as
far ahead of last years as that one was
ahead of other fairs.

Inspector Dew hurried TO Miss Lee

on the verge of nervous breakdown.
When she was put under arrest, all
control left her. She cried Historically

for fear she would IKE her life or col

Or. Crippen was attired I'm blue

and from behind them his eyes looked
out duly. His face was pale and
drawn.
With both man and girl under ar

newspapermen and photographers
swarmed aboard.
Passengers Are Astonished.

Both readily admitted their identity,
but denied connection with the London
crime.
Miss Leneve although clad in an
ill-fitting brown suit, showed some of
the beauty which the police believe led
Crippen to turn against his wife. Her
brown hair was cut short short and
parted in the middle after the English
boy fashion, her eyes were heavily
fringed and her complexion clear, her
face pleasingly oval and her express
sion winning. Her eyes are her most
charming feature. She is of short sta
ture. 1t was more than four hours ar
ter she faced the detective that the
girl was able to sit up. Even then her
condition was pitiable.

police found five diamond rings and a

The foregoing verse tells of little
comedy that happened at Hurontown
last Friday and is just becoming
known i'm that settlement and also
down in Sheldon street in Houghton.
That it was not a tragedy seems a
miracle to those who have visited the
scene of the occurrence. John Martin.

Jack" is carpenter at the Isle Roy
ale mine and lives in Hurontown with
his wife and their several children.
Jack" was doing some work around
his own home Friday noon and had re-
moved the cover from his well to make
some repairs thereto. In some manner
he tripped and plunged, head-foremost
into the opening. There was little wa
ter in the bottom of the well, which is
about fifteen feet deep, and, by some
strange coincidence Jack" did not
strike his head against any Of the tiles
with which the well is lined. The wa
ter at the bottom was just deep enough
TO break his fall else this might be

When "Jack" had succeeded in get
ting some of the mud from the WE'LL
bottom out Of his mouth and eyes, ne
set up a cry, which attracted to the
well the attention Of his wife and some
OF the children who were near at hand.
Mrs. Martin, in turn. began TO scream
and attracted the attention Of several
neighbors. Before any Of these could
arrive, however Mrs. Martin had low
cred a rope to her spouse and he had
clambered to the top Of the well, look
