WILL BE BIG AFFAIR.
v. p. Bureau Members to Meet De
troit Excursionists at Escanaba.

trott E<cursiontSts AZ GScanapd.
What promises to be an event of un-
usual significance will take place III
Escanaba in June when. according to
the plans outlined at the meeting OF
the Upper Peninsula Development bu-
reau at Marquette last week. the MEM
bers of the bureau will assemble at
Escanaba on the same day that the
Detroit Board of Commerce excur-
slonists Will be the guests OF that city.
The Development bureau has decided
to visit Escanaba and fraternalize with
the Detroiters there, instead OF plan
ming another trip TO Detroit
The Escanaba Business mems as
sociation is already discussing plans for
the day. fully realizing that the or
ganlzation will be called on To meet n
considerable problem in arranging for
the satisfactory entertainment of such
a large body Of visitors as will be the
guests OF the city. The Detroit Board
of Commerce party that visited the u.
l.. last spring numbered 500 men. and
the party that will make the trip to
Manistique. Escanaba and Menominee
next year is expected to be fully as
large II is likely that at least 25O
members of the Upper Peninsula De-
velopment bureau will also visit Es-
canada.
What form the principal entertain
ment feature will take is matter that
will cause the Escanaba men much
concern. The party will be so large
that a banquet to accommodate all
would be difficult OF arrangement and
Il is suggested that 1t would be more
practicable to arrange an out-of-door
picnic lunch. The Escanaba people
are determined that they VIII make
the occasion one that will reflect credit
on their town and send all the visitors
away loud in its praise.
Newspaper Men May Meet.
II Is likely that the midsummer
meeting of the Lake Superior Press
association a will be called for Escanaba
the dav previous to the visit of the De-
troit Board of Commerce and the up
per Peninsula Development bureau
members. Many of the newspaper men
will attend the big meeting in any
event. and Il is likely that the oficers
OF the association will decide that an
opportunity is furnished to hold one
Of the largest gatherings of its mem
bers that it has had since 1t was frst
formed. If this plan is carried out a
uroerar1 will be arranged for the
newsnaper mems gathering that Will
possess a particular appeal. TWO OF
three prominent public men WIN DC m
,,,ted 70 address the association.

Ottawa, Ont, Feb. 13.-Preliminary
to n sweeping investigation which IL
Is proposed to make into the freight
rates charged by the railroads in the
western Provinces. the Board Of Rail-
way Commissioners met today to map
out a line Of procedure.
The inquiry is expected to be the
most important of it's kind ever un-
dertalIen in Canada and the import
ance of the results on the commercial
and industrial interests of the West
can scarcely be overestimated. The
railway commissioners were prompted
to begin the investigation by the re-
ceipt Of numerous complaints alleging
discrimination against Alberta and
Saskatchewan in favor of Manitoba
and also making general charges of
excessive rates throughout the West.

YOUTH FALLS

BUTLER THOMPSON FALLS UN-

Batter Thompson, a young man of

the south bound local in the yards
in this city at twelve fifteen this
AFTERNOON
Thompson, in company with an.
other youth, was beating his way
on the local to his place OF employ
ment at Orr. When the local was
pulling into the yards in this city
the young men jumped from the
train. The companion of Thompson
swung clear of the train and was
unhurt. From the statement of the
conductor who was standing in the
doorway of the caboose and saw the
accident, it seems that Thompson,
when he jumped, retained hold on
the side ladder of the car. After
running beside the car for several
steps he released his hold on the
ladder and fell to the ground, roll

fell across the rails and the wheels
of several cars passing over that
member, crushing and manglng it
in such manner as to render am

the one crushed and amputation

noon by Drs. Hardy. Booth and Hen
ry at the Hardy sanitarum where
the unfortunate young man was TAX

great toe of the right foot also had

The injured youth is son of a
prominent citizen of Marietta and
a nephew of Officer John C. ThOEip-
son of the Ardmore police force
His parents have been notified of
the accident and are expected IN
on the three-six Santa Fe.

1t is not thought that the youth |
