Can Be Raised Easily.

@~ aSS Aso1'SN AetoAtJ
The Perry centennial commission en-
gagged the services of an expert diver
and had the hulk carefully examined.
He reported that it is well preserved
and could be raised easily.
Public spirited citizens of Erie are
endeavoring to have the old vessel
placed in Central park, where it is pro-
posed to erect a suitable building in
which to protect it from the elements.
One plan is to erect huge aquarium
in which the vessel can be placed, with
fish Of every species found in the lakes
inclosed with it.
The story of the battle of Lake Erie
will never grow old. How the Niagara
came to be Perry's flagship is graphi-
cally told by John Clark Ridpath, the
historian:
"The Lawrence, Perry's flagship, be-
gan to suffer dreadfully under the con-
centrated fire of the enemy. First one
gun and then another was dismounted.
The masts were broken. The rigging
of the vessel was rent away. The sails
were torn to shreds. Soon she yielded
no longer to the wind, but lay helpless
on the water.
ION the deck death held carnival.
The American sailors lay dead and dy-
ing on every hand. During the two
hours that Perry faced his antagonist
his men were reduced to a handful.
Entering the action the Lawrence had
crew of officers and men numbering
103. OF these by o'clock in the after
noon eighty-three were either dead or
wounded. Still Perry held out. 9th
ers fell around him until only the COM
mander and thirteen others were left
uninjured
Hero's Famous Exploit.
Meanwhile all the ships had become
engaged, but the Niagara only at long
range and ineffectively. Elliott, the
captain of that vessel, perceiving that
resistance from the Lawrence had
ceased, now. sailed ahead, believing
Perry had fallen and that the com
mand had devolved on himself.
at was at this juncture that Perry
resolved upon that famous exploit
which has made his name immortal.
He pulled down his battleflag, but left
the stars and stripes still floating,
Then, with his brother Alexander and
four of his remaining seamen, he low
cred himself into the boat. He flung
his pennant and battleflag over his
arm and around his person, stepped
into the boat, stood upright and order
ed the men to pull for the Niagara.
"That vessel was more than a half
mile distant 1t required the oarsmen
fully fifteen minutes to make the pas
sage. The boat had to pass in full

PERRY'S FLAGSHIP,
RAISED FOR THE
To Be a Feature of Next
Summers Patriotic
Celebration.
y OMMODORE OLIVER HAZARD
PERRY'S flagship, the Niagara,
~ is to be raised from the bottom

1bhh1 l . naSSnlp, the Niagara,
&S is to be raised from the bottom
Of Misery bay, Presque isle
peninsula. The old war vessel to
which Perry fled when his original
flagship, the Lawrence, was forced to
strike her co!ors is to take leading
part in the centennial celebration of
the battle Of Lake Erie next summer.
Her hull is III good condition, accord
ing to experts who have examined her,
and a coIferdain is to be built about
her so thar ihe remains of the vessel
will be damaged as little as possible in
raising. The hulk will be towed ashore
and brought into a drydock used for
repairing fishing tugs, there to be re-
built and made ready for the part it
is to take liz the celebration.
When Barclay had surrendered to the
gallant Perry the American fleet re-
turned to Erie harbor, and the vessels,
both Perry's and the captured English
gunboatS, were anchored temporarily
in Misery bay, a small inlet leading
back into the woods that cover Presque
isle peninsula.
The Lawrence was so badly riddled
that no attempt was made to preserve
it. Its splintered timbers were con-
verted into walking sticks and knick-
knacks to be disposed of as souvenirs.
The Niagara, however, was useful for
number Of years, and finally, not
knowing better way of disposing Of
the ancient warship, the residents Of
Erie scuttled it in Misery bay, where
it has remained since, covered by fif-
teen feet Of water.

THE SUNRISE SONG
OF THE MIKAD0
BRINGS GIRL FAME.


The thing we want
Is hearts that rise above earth's worries
like
The sun at morn, rising above the clouds,
Splendid and strong.
[ stand at morn
And view the smoke curling above the
roofs
In great volume, and thereby I know
The age is one of growing industries.
o man, look up even in the hour Of veal,
When progress leads the nation, and re-
we're
The grace of God that watches DER the
earth!
When hearts of men
Are cloudless, free from all defiling strain,
The mighty gods, clearly beholding them,
Fill them with pure light
No need to bear
Grudge against heaven or wreak ones
spiteful spleen
Against ones fellow men when one re-
fleets
On his own errors.
Miss Sela Koruto Moritsu, declared
to be one of the cleverest English
scholars in all Japan, has won honor
and fame among foreigners as well as
compatriots by her rendering in Eng
Nsh of the Sunrise Song" of the late
Emperor Mutsuhito, the poetic effusion
being among the latest compositions of
that famous monarch.
Miss Moritsu is but little more than
eighteen, but she has herself written
for several / contributing to both
japanese ana English periodicals. Her
parents are well to do people of Kobe,
where the young lady is at present re-
siding.

MYsteriously Disappears.

Mr.. Haskell Lucas, young farmer
living in the CASTOR section, carried
bale of cotton to Columbia last Mon
day and mysteriously disappeared in
that evening. He was last seen by
Lawrence Mack near the "Gut' south
of the Cougaree bridge. Whether ne
was murdered and robbed of money he
had received for his cotton is not
known. He had threatened suit
against the Bell Telephone Co. for in
iuries received in the early spring from
a wire hanging across the road in which
he was travelling, belonging to the
company. 1t is said that the company
had agreed to compromise the case anG
that young Lucas might have received
the money and boarded the train On
his way home for parts unknown, as
he had talked of doing on several oc-
casions. The team was found III the
read.

MAN OF RESOURCE
Is Charles Berner, Who Has
Been Sued by County.
He Is BOndSman for Missing
PriSOner-GetS a Warrant.

One of those unusual and interesting
condolences that are always happen
ing developed at the court house yes
terday afternoon. County Attorney
Atchfson filed suit in the district
court to recover $500 for the county
from Charles l.. Berner This is the
amount of a bond he furnished for the
appearance at the 1912 September term
of the district court of J. Z. Robinson.
The latter was arrested in July 1912, for
selling liquor in violation of the law.
Robinson made his presence scarce.
And because Berner failed to produce
him under the terms of the bond Mr..
Atchison decided that it was about
time to collect the sum of the bond
from Berner.
Within a few hours after this suit
had been filed Mr.. Berner appeared
in the county attorneys office and OBJ
tanned a warrant for the arrest of
Robinson on a charge of assault with
intent to kill. This alleged murderous
assault occurred many months ago. 1t
consisted of Robinson throwing a
rock at Berner which hit the latter on
one of his arms and inflicted a severe
cut.
1t appears that Robinson is some
where in Illinois working for a rail-
road Berner had the alternative of
fighting the suit for the recovery of the
sum of the bond, with small prospects
of winning it, or producing Berner in
court. 1t would have cost him some
thing to do the latter, and his efforts
in that direction might not have been
successful.
But with a warrant out charging
Robinson witha felony it would seem to
be the duty of the county officials to
get him back in Shawnee county for
trial for that crime if they can locate
him.
Just what the county officials will do
in the premises. they have not as yet
determined

according to one of the district judges,
fishing in the placid waters of the
