under their throats Well, in the au-
tumn of '63 these spots were coal black
and | notice they are jet black now.
This leads me to believe that the win
ter is going to be long and severe.
81 remember the mustache on our
Speckled tom cat grew heavy in the
fall of 1868, and l have tom cat with
mustache almost as thick as mine
now This is also a bad sign. Every
stray dog, notice, has heavy coat of
fur, which is another proof that the
winter is going to be cold.
81 ate roasted goose last Sunday,
and just as l expected, l found the
wish bone heavy. This is sure proof
that we will have snow early and it
vii remain with us late.
81 have been watching the sky these
mornings to see if the geese and ducks
have begun to go south. | expect them
to start down from the north soon.
When l see them you can bet your
right eye that Mat Morrison slips on
his red flannels. And I'll keep 'em on
until these geese start back north next
spring"

CAPAHAS MAY TAKE
BOAT RIDE SUNDAY
If Cape Players do not Cruise to
Cairo, IlIinOisans Will
Visit Cape.

Manager Joe Barenkamp of the
Capahas last night announced that he
expects to learn this afternoon wheth-
er the plans for a steamboat excursion
to Cairo this Sunday may be carried
out.
Last week Barenkamp began max
ing arrangements to obtain a large
excursion steamer to carry crowd of
800 to 1000 baseball fans from the
Cape to Cairo, where a game has been
scheduled. Negotiations were entered
into with the officials of the Spread
Eagle, an excursion steamer running
out of st. Louis, in an endeavor to Sc
cure that boats services.
Barnekamp expects to receive let
ter this afternoon from St. Louis with
the decision of the steamboat officials
as to whether or not the Spread Eagle
may be brought to the Cape for the
trip. The boat officers had expected to
do big business with an excursion on
Labor Day, Monday, September 6, and
if they brought their craft to the Cape
on Sunday, it would be impossible for
them to get back to St. Louis in time
for the Labor Day picnic crowds.
If the Cape crowd that wishes to ac-
company the baseball team to Cairo is
large and promising enough, the
steamer may come anyway, and put
on couple short excursions here at
the Cape the following day.
Barenkamp last hight said if the
steamer cannot be secured for the ex-
cursiOn to Cairo, the baseball men in
Cairo will change the game to the
Cape and will charter one of the small
Ohio river boats with which they will
bring an excursion to the Cape.
Should the baseball game between
the Capahas and Cairo be brought to
the Cape, a series of motorcycle races
and other field events will be staged
in the Fairgrounds, making it COM
bination spectacle.
Barenkamp says many persons have
indicated to him their desire to go on
the excursion to Cairo Sunday if he
succeeds in getting the Spread Eagle.
The Spread Eagle is a large boat
that will accommodate 1900 passen-
gers and provide plenty of room for
them. The fare will be 81 for the
round trip and the boat will depart
from the Cape early in the morning
about $50 am. and after the game
has been played, the crowd will start
back Immediately.

WIDOW CETS$l,4OO,
MATE FIRE VICTIM
Mrs. Nj. Nj. Hazen Settles With
Saw Mill Firm In
Louisiana.

A draft for $1,000 is all that has
been received by Mrs. NJ. M. Hazen,
of William and Frederick streets, as
Indemnity and damages for the death
of her husband who was burned to
death in sawmill fire at Standard,
La, last October.
The corporation that made the set
Element, the Louisiana Central Lumber
Co., is $15,000,00O organization, own
ing properties virtually throughout the
Southwest.
The settlement of S1400 was made
outside of court through the efforts of
Mrs. Hazen's son-in-law, H. H. Haas,
of the st. Charles Drug Store, and it
was only after lengthy correspond
ence and a series of personal CONVEX
stations that Haas was able to bring
the sum up to that amount.
At the outset, the indemnity bonding
company, which was handling the case
for the lumber concern, offered but
$500. Through Haas work, they final
ly raised the figure to $1,000 and then
$1,000. The settlement was made some
weeks ago and Mrs. Hazen received
the draft through Haas a few days
ago.
Mr.. Hazen, who was 6S years old,
was employed on the third floor of the
saw mill, where he kept the saws used,
sharpened. He and his sole assistant,
a man named Dodson, were the only
men killed in the fire. Their bodies
were burned completely.
The fire started on the first floor
and mounted upward through the
building rapidly. The smoke was so
dense it asphyxiated some of the work
men on the first floor before they
could escape, and they had to be drag
ged from the burning building by their
companions About 200 men were at
work in the place. 1t is believed the
fire started from spontaneous COM
bustion.
Hazen and his assistant Dodson,
were in a part of the mill removed
from the escapes and they had no
time to make a getaway, Haas de-
ciared.
Haas, who practiced as an attorney
several years ago, went to the mill
town after the fire to investigate the
fire with a view of getting evidence
upon which to base a damage suit
against the mill company.
He found on his arrival there, he de-
clared, that virtually all the employees
were reticent about talking of the mill
and the conditions that existed inside.
He succeeded, however, in getting
evidence, he said, upon which he be-
lieved he could successfully base a
damage suit. A proffer to compromise
then was made and the negotiations
continued.
Haas said he believed the possibility
of recovering damages through a suit
were good, but the Judgment would
have been curtailed, he said, on ac-
count of his father-in-law's age.
DodsOn's relatives had not started
action yet. DodsOn was "a years old
and was married and leaves young
children.
Mr.. Hazen three years ago resided
in the Cape. He was an experienced
mechanic and had been connected with
the mill in Standard but a year when
the fire occurred.
