CAPT. KELLEY SAYS HE'S THROUGH

The steamer Maryland, for the past
eleven years commanded by Timothy j..
Kelley of this city was recently sold to
coal company at Fort William, On.
tario. Capt. Kelley resigned and quit
the steamer at Buffalo last week and
arrived home Saturday. He says that
his sailing days are probably over but
the Captain, although &c, looks good
for many years of it and il a command
comes seeking him next season his
friends wager be will be unable to re-
entitled to it. His marine career ex-
tends from 1862 to 1915, inclusive, 81
seasons on the great lakes. He was
hoy" seaman and mate in sailing
ships until in the spring of 1872, at
the age of - he was placed in command
OF the clipper schooner G. l.. Johnston
by Peter Johnston, Manitowoc's first
mayor, who then owned fleet of
schooners here. He commanded sail.
ing ships, including the Thomas How
land, Lottie Wolf and Wells Burt, aud
spent years in the grain trade from
Chicago to Buffalo and St. Lawrence
River ports.
He went into steamship navigation
when made master Of the steamer
Monahansett in 1884. In 1885 he was
given command of the Massachusetts.

iron ore steamers and the LARGEST boat

cessively commanded the steamers
Manhattan, Manchester and finally
Maryland of this line, being captain Of
the Manchester l5 years. Very few
marine men remain on the lakes who
received their seamen's schooling in
the hey'day of the sailing craft. A
magazine writer 3 years ago in sketch
ing the careerof Capt. David Cochrane,
superintendent of the Goodrich fleet,
wrote; Capt, Cochrane and Tim Kel-
ley are, perhaps, the best vessemen
on the chain of lakes, and as steam boat
men, they are unsurpassable."
a lot of marine history has happened
between the summer OF 1862 when Tim
Kelley, aged Is, crawled over the ra1l
of the schooner Ellen at Manitowoc and
the time last week when he bad his
trunk eased down the side of the Mary.

An unexpainable and peculiarly un-
fortunate accident accured on N. Sth
street between Huron and St. Clair
streets shortly after m last Satur-
day when high powered Cadillac car
driven by S. @. Cool, railroad con-
tractor, ran into Albert Mack
mounted on bicycle. The bicycle
rider was going north proceeding to
his home on Sth street Just outside the
city limits and he was on the right
side of the car tracks. The car came
up from behind. The rider noticed
the head light glare but supposed the
car would pas, to his left. Instead of
doing that it ran plump into him throw
ing him under the wheels and resulting
in slanting fracture of the right thigh
bone and a fracture OF the left leg
above the ankle besides general
mauIing and bruising.
Mr.. Cool says that his attention was
SO taken up with the bad giving caused
by underground pipe work in prepar-
alton OF next years paving that he did
not see Mack entil he was almost on
to him. Arthur Steric6er who was
with Cool says that he supposed the
bicycle would draw off toward the curb
before they reached it, Mack was
formerly school teacher in Kewaunee
county and merchant at Two Rivers.
In the latter venture he lost all he had
and has been employed as shipping
clerk at Schmidtman' Sons company.
The difficulty Of supporting wife and
six children induced him to drop his
accident insurance a few months ago.
His escape from death is said by spect.
ators to have been miraculous. 1t will
be many weeks before he Can again
take up his burdens.

FIRE.--Ou2 fremen we're again call
ed out on Thursday afternoon, about 4
o'clock, by the burning of the new ho-
tel on the corner of Main and Buffalo
streets, North side, which was owned
and occupied by Nels Gilbert. The
building proved total loss, as the
companies in which it was nsused had
collapsed under the pressure of the
Chicago fire. The furniture was most
ly saved. The loss will fall heavily on
Mr.. Gilbert, as the building was new
one, and had but recently been put in
running order. His loss will be about
Sl.s0O. The wind was blowing heavy
at the time, and it was only by the
greatest exerlions that the surround.
ing property was rescued from the
Flames.
Due credit must be awarded to Mr..
Henry Murphy, who fought the flames
FOR two hours, and by his eXertions
united by those of the iiremen, the
buildings in the rear were saved.

CAR AND ENGINE COLLIDE,

tuesday evening Northwesterp
switch engine struck the city car Of the
Traction company st the crossing At
Franklin and 18th streets. The street
car was south bound AMI the engine
was backing westerly. The forward
part OF the street car was on the track
when the engine struct. 1t threw out
the motorman, and smashed up the
head end OF the car, turning it com.
pletely around. The motormsn WAS
not injured. Two passengers in the
rear end received only a shaking up.
This car carries nc conductor. The
outcome was fortunate. Whst the or.
dinary man on the street wants to know
is this. How is il possible, here in the
10Th century, for stree. car and n To-
comotiye to crash together in the heart
OF the city OF Manitowoc.
Those in charge of both have the
duty OF coming TO dead stop before 4
crossing and sending man out ahead
TO signal. Apparently neither did eth
tr ot these things. 1t is no fault of
theirs that lives were not lost. II there
had been the usual, mot to blame"
whine would have been heard. 1t il
time that the public insist that some
little regard be shown by drivers Of To-
comotives, street cars and automobiles,
for the lives Of passengers and pedes-
trians going about their business in the
streets.

A golden blaze lit up the rugged

his Aminta. Adolph was of poetic
disposition, and Aminta did her best
to appear appreciative of his out
bursts, though occasionally she lapsed
sadly.
"Look, Aminta!" he exclaimed sud-
denly-so suddenly that she expected
to see German airship or mouse.
"Look at that wonderful sunset! Drink
in that feast of color! Battle in the
blase of light!''
Aminta looked puzzled. She was
wondering how she ought to begin
doing these things.
"Note carefully the delicate flesh
tint!" continued Adolph. "See those
long streaks Of glorious red, and the
creamy shading Of the cloudlets sur
rounded by the deepening green Of
approaching night! Is it not glorius,
