MEN ON ICE FLoE SAVED
Lighthouse Keepers, Adrift in Green
Fay 80 Hours, Are Returned
to Shore by Wind.

Marinette. Like men resurrected,
George and Frank Drew were borne
ashore on their ice raft at Cham
bers island
A sharp wind detached the ice
field on which they were making
their way to shore from the light
house which they tend on Chambers
island, in Green bay For thirty
two hours the pair were on the foe,
floating in the bay and escaping all
rescue efforts of the skiffs that were
in pursuit.
When all hope of rescue had been
practically abandoned, the great
white field again swept into view.
Driven by the wind, which sprang
up two hours before, the mass bore
down on the island and with a crash
piled hunks of ice in small glaciers.
From this debris the brothers in an
exhausted state, made their way to
shore.

MiIwaukee's Efforts to Secure Van

Probably Successful.

offered the 1912 Grand Prix and
Vanderbilt cup races and will accept.
Bart J. Ruddle, secretary of the Mil
waukee Automobile association, re-
ceived the following telegram from
William K Vanderbilt, Jr., presi-
dent of the Motor Cups Holding as
ISOLATION and donor of the Wander
bilt cup.
Dear Sir: Advices from Savan-
nah indicate that the sanctions can
be awarded toyou, provided that your
proposal concerning policing of the
course, ETC., proves satisfactory to
the committee"
The affair will be held on two
days between Aug. Is and Oct. Is.
Mr.. Ruddle has wired Mr.. Van
derbilt that the association accepts
his offer.
The race meet will be the biggest
thing of it's kind that Milwaukee has
ever attempted
The immensely of the affair may
be gathered from the fact that last
year at Savannah 100000 people wit
messed the races, which lasted two
days. Milwaukee, centrally located.
could easily attract this number.
Nearly all the noted drivers of
America and Europe will enter the
big meet.
