Tug Mariner Wrecked
I. o1'e On Iceberg Point

The fine tug Mariner, built last
summer by Albert Jensen, OF 1nis
place, and owned by him, went on the
rocks near Iceberg point. Lopez lslano
last Sunday afternoon and so 1ar as
the boat is concerned is total loss'
she having been hammered to pieces
during the gale of Sunday night and
Monday.
In response to a telegram received
from a gentleman in Seattle VINO
had virtually closed deal with Mr..
Jensen for the purchase of the boat,
she left here early Sunday afternoon
for that city and all went well until
she was a short distance off Iceberg
point, headed for Deception pass,
when her engines missed fire, allow
ing them to become flooded with oil.
and before they could be started
again the boat had drifted onto the
point, stern first, carrying away her
rudder and wedging a portion of
her shoe between the propeller
blades, renderinhg her perfectly
helpless. On account of the tele-
phone office being closed Sunday
afternoon it was seven o'clock in the
evening before word could be got
here for assistance. Had this not
been the case the boat could have
probably been saved and her owner
spared the loss of several thousand
dollars. Just as soon as the word
reached here the tug Venture, owned
by Jos. and Frank Jensgen, and in
command of Capt. Woolford of rev.
enue launch, Guard went to the
Mariners assistance but too late to
be of any help for the reason that
the southwest gale made it impossible
for the Venture to get near her, and
during the night she went to pieces
on the rocks. Mr.. Jensen thinks
it probable that her engine, repre-
senting about two-thirds Of the value
of the property, can be saved and
as soon as the tides will permit of
work on this a pile driver will be
taken there to raise, it. So far
it is practically uninjured and AL
bert's friends hope that he may be
able to save this much out of the
wreck. s'i f"

Steamer Islander
Again on the Run

5, Many expressions of satisfaction
are heard throughout the county,
over the return Of the steamer Is
lander to the mail route between
Bellingham and Anacortes by way
of the Islands.
Especially so as she is again in
charge of her old master Capt.
Charles Basford, who has spent a
large part of many years past in
her pilot house.
!, No master has ever operated a
vessel in the waters Of the San Juan
Archipelago who has possessed in a
greater degree the confidence and
good will of the travelling public.
1t is also matter of satisfaction
that his son Irwin. who is as capable
as an engineer as his father is a
navigator, is in charge of the engine
room. ,li' '''' ''-''i'-i 'i'-. a <ii
And it is good also to see another
familiar figure, Peter Hansen big,
good tempered, courteous and cap
able, who is perhaps the most pepu-
lar purserl the steamer ever had
and, there is "Jimmie" sIotte, sin
charge of the freight deck, as,ibusy
as humble bee handling freight at
the various docks along the route
And not only are Capt. Basford and
his son in charge of the. navigation
of the vessel but they are her opera
tors under a contract entered into
with her owner Mr.. Newhall.. 5nsss
After the many vicissitudes which
the mail service has gone through
during the past few months it is
good to. see even a partial return to
the satisfactory service which we
had under. the old contract.snan

a load of fruit trees.
Emil Lundberg contemplates the
erection of 10 room, two story hotel
and boarding house, on the east side of
the Huron Bay road, below Gust Dahl
berg's store. A building Of this nature
has been badly needed in Skanee for
years, as it was nearly impossible to
get accommodations except at the
homes of settlers.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, May 1.-No-
thing probably presages more surely
the success of the movement to pro-
mote the agricultural and other re-
sources of the upper peninsula than
the support which is coming to this
movement from the biggest and most
powerful land-owning interests in the
district. Through the efforts of Presi-
dent Green, ably seconded by his lieu
tenants in each of the counties, the
financial support of the Calumet &
Hecla Mining company. the Cleveland
Cliffs Mining company, the United
States Steel corporation. the Kewee-
nav association, the. ]. M. Longyear
interests, the Western Land Securities
company. the Michigan Land company,
the Michigan Pulpwood company has
been enlisted, each of these concerns
having indicated their willingness to
contribute the one cent per acre as
sessment fixed at the Menominee meet
ing.
The support of these companies was
almost vital to the success of the Up
per Peninsula bureau and the assurance
that this support will be cheerfully
rendered makes complete success f.
nancing of the plan almost, if not
quite, certainty.

CLEANUP DAYS.
May 8, 8 and 10 Dates Set BY Com.
mon Council. VI

At meeting of the village council,
a resolution was approved which re-
quires the residents to clean their
property of all refuse.
Every man, woman and child should
be proud of the place they call home.
Housecleaning time is an old, well es-
tablished and wise custom. This work
should not be confined to the house
alone; the yard as well should receive
attention. During the winter months
garbage accumulates more or less
about every house. The ash piles, the
kitchen refuse, etc., should be removed
at once. Neglect to do this not only
results in untidy and unattractive
homes but unsanitary as well. If these
accumulations are left until warm
weather they become menace to
health.
Will every citizen of our city make a
resolution that he will do his part in
this work and follow it up with actual
deed?
Getting started on every new under
taking is what worries people most. 1t
is just this way about cleaning up and
identifying our homes. Lying back
and dreaming about it will not do it.
Every man, woman and child interest
ed must get to work. If every house
hnldar will foLa thio onpool hovpo to
himself, and resolve to do his part, and
then do it, we shall have taken good
step forward, not only in beautifying
but improving the health conditions of
our homes.
With this end in view, the council
has set aside the dates mentioned. And
do not stop with cleaning. Repair your
sidewalks and fences too.

INTEREST IN CORN CONTEST.
OntonaSon Alone Wants Two Hundred
Packages OF Seed for Entrants.

Secretary Mcnamara of the Copper
Country fair has begun receiving tan
gible evidence that his belief in the
value of the school corn contest fea-
ture is justified. E. F. Benson, super
intendent of schools at Ontonagon, has
placed an order for 200 packages of
seed. This means that in Ontonagon
township alone 200 children will enter
the contest.
Another evidence of interest in the
contest is found in donation of $40 in
cash prizes by S. o. Clinton, commits
sioner of schools in Baraga county. He
offers first prize Of So, second of 81
and five 81 prizes for the best exhibits
of corn grown in Baraga county, with
an essay accompanying each exhibit.
the essay being descriptive of the
methods employed in growing the corn
and a report of the progress from
planting to harvest.
