ONLY HALF OF LAKE BOATS
ARE NOW IN OPERATION
OWNED BY LARGE
FIRMS BUSY BUT lNDEPEND-
EMIT CARGOES ARE SMALL.

AT present there are less than half
of the registered frcighters on the
Great Lakes in operation. At least
half of the boats that carried cargoes
last year are at various lake ports,
idle because they can get no cargoes.
II Is interesting to note that none OF
these large freighters are owned by
the large companies such as the
Pittsburgh Steamship company. the
Snyders, or the Tomlinson line. They
are privately owned boats that are
unable to get wild cargoes.
Every Pittsburgh Steamship COM
pany boat except one barge is in opera
ton this year and other big lines have
all the boats running. They have not
felt the poor year i'm shipping as
they are as busy az last year. Iron
ore cargoes for the privately owned
boats are very scarce, and it is this
that has made the season dull.
Shipments in number, wheat and
grain have nearly maintained an aver
age with those of last year. There are
more boats now carrying wheat and
grain than there were last year, but
very few of these have capacity car
goes. The lumber industry on the
Great Lakes this season has assumed
peculiar aspect. Before this season
the "hookers" went to a MILL were
loaded by a large crew of men en-
ployed by the mill or by the shipping
company, and dispatched as quickly as
possible. Now a lumber boat goes to a
port, its own crew loads the boat and
1t proceeds liesurely to another port to
be unloaded. Cargoes are not as plen-
tiful as in previous years and there is
no cause to hurry.
The New York Centrars line of
packet boats are running on schedule
tine this year, thing which has not
happened before in the history. These
freighters, which are among the fast
est on the lakes, remain i'm port "a
hours or longer. and whether they are
loaded or not they leave on schedule
time. 1t has been the custom before
to load the boats to their limits before
sending them away and this was un-
ually accomplished in a short time be-
cause the cargoes were always waiting
Whether this slump in shipping will
continue for the balance of the year is
n question. 1t may be the war in Eur
ope will have the effect of stimulating
ii, marine men will not commit them
selves on this. one thing seems GER
tain, however, it cannot go much lower

lions for the men will he Of the very.
best. II is expected that 225 officers
and men will make the journey.
At last nights drill the men were
given final instructions in regard TO
the cruise and many of the little lntri-
cate bits of ship life which they have

ed to them.
Every officer and seaman will go
aboard tomorrow evening before 1880

war will head for Marquette at about
s o'clock, when the Marquette division
will come aboard. The ship then will

GETS MAIL FROM GERMANY.
Rev. FIR. krohn Of Quincy Gets Some
Dated July &c.

Rev. FIR Krohn, pastor of the Cath
Ollie church at quincy, has received
mail from Germany, bearing date of
July 26, including a German political
paper of July "a. lie expressed aston
ishment that he had received mail of
even so remote date as that.
1t is believed, however, that within
a few days the European war will have
a more striking effect on copper coun-
try incoming foreign mail Thousands
OF people in the district are in constant
postal communication with relatives in
Europe and the war undoubtedly will
interrupt this intercourse to great
extent if not wholly.
The resulting anxiety may have the
effect Of inducing a desire on the part
Of foreign born residents OF the copper
country to go home for the war. n
desire not yet very prominently dis
played. The exodus TO Europe So far
has been almost nil.

TEMPLE JACOB CONGREGATION
EXTENDS CALL TO RABBI
CLEVELAND MAN WILL TAKE
CHARGE OF LOCAL SYNA-
day from a fshln "Trip to Gratiot Lake.

The First Congregation OF Israel has
extended u call to Rabbi Isadore Kop-
lowtz OF Cleveland to become pastor Of
Temple Jacob.
The Rabbi was highly recommended
to the local congregation before his
name came before the executive COM
mittee for consideration. Professors Of
colleges which he attended praised his
work as speaker and what he had
accomplished for synagogs. The new
rabbi will conduct his first service in
Temple Jacob Friday evening OF next
week. There will also be services the
following Sunday afternoon, when
Rabbi Koplowitz will deliver lecture
Temple Jacob has been without a
resident rabbi for several months,
Rabbi Joseph Hevesh being the last
pastor. During the summer months
Rabbi l.. Strod was here but he left for
his home in New York the first Of
August.
Feast Day Observed.
The Jewry OF the copper country
during the early part OF this week OBJ
served a custom and feast day of the
church, which has been in existence
since the destruction of Jerusalem. 1t
is known as the feast OF Pisha Beab.
The day in the Jewish calendar is
known as Melaina Hemera (black day.
and is the ninth day OF the month Of
Alb The celebration of the day is not
confined to services i'm the synagogs
alone, but in "A large part TO fasting
and other rites Of mourning in the
home.
II is the observance OF the fall Of
Jerusalem and the temple during the
reign OF Titus. AS result of the de-
of their city the people of
the Jewish race were scattered over
the world.
The predominant idea in the Jewish
mind in connection Herewith is that
the fall and destruction of Jerusalem
were accomplished in accordance with
the dispensation OF Providence, as
foretold by the prophet Isaias, because
they had forsaken the law OF Moses
and had almost universally given
themselves up TO the RIGHTEOUSNESS
that prevailed among the gentle ma
lions surrounding them. But they
have reason TO entertain the belief
that they will not be thus dispersed
that they will again return to
Judea and live in their own beloved
Zion under the observance Of the law
Of love and righteousness and i'm peace
with the nations of the earth until the
end OF time.

Complaint was made to the Hough-
ton village council at its meeting yes
terday afternoon that many delinquent
water taxpayers have been obstinate
in refusing to pay alleged over

water committee should take immedi-
ate action i'm the matter.
Mayor Hartman read n communca-
ton from the board of education re-
questing permission To run a pipe line
from the Hurontown spring TO the
school. This request was granted by

The village of Houghton received its
ago and the question arose as to where
the scale should be placed. Popular
sentiment seemed To favor the lot own
ed by the village hall between the Ii
brary and the Douglass house. Some
members OF the council, however, in
sisted that the more convenient place
would be at the bridge corner on Sta
ton Court street. The council decided
to investigate the Station Court site
this morning.
Village Insurance Reduced.
In furtherance Of his policy OF econ
omy Mayor Hartman Investigated the
Insurance policies OF the village aud
found that the village had made no
allowance for depreciation In the value
OF the hall property and that they
still paid insurance on hose houses and
equipment no longer i'm the service Of
the village. He accordingly reduced
the insurance from $2O,7OO to $4,000.
He also divided the insurance equally
between four local agencies The
council commended Mayor Hartmans
action.
Request Is Granted.
j. ii. Rice presented a request that
he be allowed a pipe line from Monte
yuma street to the business block now

IF getting the connection from Sheldon
street as the street would have to be

request was granted, with the provis-
on that the pipe be laid on the east
