HERRING DIE IN FROZEN DAY
Over Two TriIiion Of Them Arc cought
BY Sudden Freeze-Up In
Alaskan Waters.

kawack Bay. Alaska.-Probably the
greatest fish killing ever known took
place here on Prince Of Wales island
a short time ago. when at one stroke
1t Is estimated that 1000, ,00O, ,000, 900
good sized herring lost their lives.
Capt. Simon Brounn and the Of
ficers of the steamship Northland had
the remarkable experience of navigat-
ing their vessel through miles OF the
dead fish.
For three days the bay had been full
of schools of herring SO dense that flsh
were often thrown out of the water.
A day before the Northland arrived
a sudden freeze caught the herring
In the narrow necked harbor before
they could escape.
The freeze came with great sudden
ness, and about six inches Of Ice form
ed on the harbor. Millions of the her
hing could be seen fighting for last
desperate chance OF getting out of the
fnclosed water before frozen.
When Captain Brunn arrived with
the Northland the tide had receded,
and for 20 to so feet on the beach, and
for several hundred feet out into the
water for three miles around the har-
Dor lay the frozen fish. Measurements
were made. and 1t was found that the
herring lay tightly packer for IN aver
age of three feet.
The greatest chance in the world
for obtaining fresh fish without a
bit of work was lost. The cannery
people took all they could, but the
Northland was not equipped to carry
them. The fear now is that an cpl
demic of disease may break out follow
ing the decay of the dead fish.

ELECTRIC SHOCK NOT FATAL

testified that Stewart died from
electric shock. despite the testimony
OF the experts and Mr.. Bancroft's exhi.
bition. and the jury returned verdict
to the effect that Stewards death was
caused by an electrical shock.

PoINcARE WILL NOT SHOOT BIRDS

President Poincare is opposed
strongly to the killing of animals and
birds for sport. and one Of his first
acts after election was to anIounce
himself patron of the French society
the purpose OF which Is to afford pro
lection to animals. He does not. how
ever, wish to pose as an animal lover
merely In name. and he has just made
tie official announcement that he will
not hold a gun in hand during his
term of office.
This decision of the president is an
entirely personal one. He declares he
has no intention of interfering with
the sport OF others, and that when his
duties require him to be present at a
presidential hunting party he will full
fill them.
1t is believed. however. that this
attitude of M. Poincare will have a
considerable effect on presidential en-
tertaining during the coming years OF
his administration Out of Difference

SECRETARY OF AUDUBON ASSOCIATION

Sentiment is soft and intangible
and soppy. and all that; but 1t does
things that dollars won't do some
times. as in the fight that the Audu-
bon societies have made for the pro.
lection OF the bird life OF this country.
A recently enacted law gives to the
federal department of agriculture the
right to prescribe the season during
which migratory game birds and MI
gratory insect eating birds may be
killed. A clause In the tariff bill now
before congress absolutely prohibits
the importation Of the feathers of wild
birds. The sale Of wild bird feathers
has been forbidden by law In the
twelve states which contain all the big
cities with the single exception OF
Chicago. Only eight states have re-
fused to adopt the Audubon law pro-
tecting nongame birds. Bird refugees
have been spotted all along the At
lantic coast. and almost all the states
are giving considerable measure OF
protection to their game birds.

STATEMENT ISSUED
ON BEHALF OF MEN
Governor Ferris Decides to
Stay Away From District
Unless Lives and Property
Are in Danger.

CALUMET, Mich, July 25.-Reports
that Governor W. N. Ferris would
come to Houghton tonight to help ar
range settlement Of the strike of the
$4,000 copper mine employees in the
northern peninsula brought out an
unofficial statement tonight from the
mine managers that they would well
come the governors s presence.
Any plans for arbitration under the
direction Of the governor were soon
dispelled, however, by the announce
ment that the governor had no present
intention Of coming to the copper coun-
try OF Of withdrawing the militia,
which is protecting the mines against
any further outbreak Of the strikers.
The following telegram was sent to
the governors office in Lansing this
afternoon by G. T. Mahoney, vice pres
ident Of the Western Federation Of
Miners:
ave respectfully request that you
come here and investigate the industrial
dispute in the copper mining district
and use your good offices to effect a
settlement and to direct that the
troops be used to preserve peace in
stead Of to operate the mines, as seems
to be the present intent"
No Sign of Arbitration.
The company managers stated unof-
ficially that they, too, would welcome
the governor, but would give no init
nation that proposals to arbitrate the
strike would be accepted by them
They said this would be construed by
the strikers as tacit recognition Of
tn, union.
Disorders occurred spasmodically in
the outlying districts OF the mining
country today, but in no case did the
union members manifest the spirit
which appeared in the attack upon Cal
umet and Hecla properties yesterday
A call for troops came from the
south range when union sympathizers
drove away the sheriff's deputies at
the Baltic, Trimountain and other
mines, but an investigation by militia
commanders convinced them that the
situation was not serious enough to re-
quire the presence of state soldiers.
Tt was the consensus Of opinion

She Takes Her Children and
Goes to the Country to
Live in Quiet.
By international News Service.

BY International News Service.
~ AN FRANCISCO, July 25.-Mrs
Hull McClaughry has taken her
1 two children and gone to her
place at Galt-minus her hus-
band. He has received the 100000
agreed upon, and she has her divorce,
and the $lo,O0O,Oo0 left her by her
father, "Lucky' Baldwin.
And thereby hangs story as old as
the hills and yet with an angle that
gives it new flavor, for it was the
advent Of the huge fortune that started
the trouble, McClaughry, according to
his wife, did not want to spend. He
was penurious.
In the testimony she accused him Of
cruolty-a most extraordinary brand Of
cruelty, for she said his ntrocity con-
sisted of objecting to the price she
paid for trivial household foodstuffs.
In spite Of assertions by each party
that never, never would they sell their
children for cash, the husband ac
cepted the 100000, with the provision
that the children may visit him at con-
venient seasons, both parties promis-
ing to refrain from kidnapping,
According to the evidence, Nc
Claughry's principal occupation at his
home was to find fault with his wife
or ridicule her. He objected to every
thing, from the price she paid for
prunes to the manner in which she
dressed her hair. Mrs. McClaughry be-
came somewhat accustomed to this, she
said, and patiently endured 1t. She
said that after she came into her $10,-
100000 estate she hoped her husband
would not be so penurious, but that in
stead of permitting her to enjoy her
wealth, and enjoying it with her, he
took her to task for paying 90 cents
pound for prunes when he said that
Scent prunes were good enough for any
family.
Then he insisted that instead Of pure
olive oil on their table, cottonseed oil
would serve the purpose.
Mrs. McClaughry said that when she
married she knew nothing OF cooking
or household work, and attempted to
teach herself out of cookbook.
Knowing that she was not an expert,
