Just the Right Present.

Don.t take chances in the matter of
Christmas presents. You don't want
yours, like so many others, to be re-
ceived with indifference or worse, and
ten days after Christmas to be cast
aside and forgotten.
You take no chances in giving The
Youths Companion for year.
Did you ever know Of home in
which it came amiss, or of : one in
which it was not conspicuous on the Ii
brsry table or in some ones hands all
through the year?
1t is worth while to make a gift Of
that sort, and it is worth while to re-
ceive it too, for The Companion illus
trates the best traits in American life
in its stories and sketches, upholds the
best standards in its articles and other
cont buttons, and combines the prac-
tical and informing with the entertain
ing and blood-stirring.

The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1915-12-04

At the annual anniversary service Of
the M. E. church at Hancock last Sun
day. Rev. johnson Of Marquette traced
the work Of the Methodist missionaries
in the upper peninsula in the early days,
saying the first church in the upper
peninsula was established by the Meth
odists at L'Anse and that the first
house Of worship erected in the iron
country was nesr Ishpeming under the
direction Of Methodist missionaries,
both churches being log cabins. The
speaker slso stated the first missionary
work in the copper country was under
the leadership of Methodist missionaries
at Eagle River.
Rev. William Benson, said the speak
er, came to L'Anse as missionary and
iabored among the Indians, later going
to Marquette where he was successful
in seeing church built. In 1884 Rev.
Clark was sent into the upper peninsula
by the Methodist church Of New York,
declared Rev. johnson, and established
q mission at L'Anse.
The whole idea in the speakers dis
course was that these men were heroes
of the past and made possible the
church and Christian life Of today, that
the missionaries labored that others
who would follow might inherit the
fruits of their labors. The auditorium
of the church was packed at both SER
vices.

Forty Years Age.

The following items were clipped
from the Negaunee Iron Herald re-
printed from their files dated Novem-
Der Is. 1875:
The steamer, Ivanhoe, plying be-
tween Houghton and L'Anse, made
her last trip for the season on Satur-
day. 1t was expected that she would
make at least one more trip Monday.
but this was prevented by minor
break down to some of her machinery
and it was then decided to moor her in
winter quarters.
Last Saturday afternoon the schoon-
er Chenango left Marquette, in tow of
the tug J. C. Morse. with cargo Of
600 tons of ore for the Bay Furnace at
Onota. A severe gale accompanied by
snow sprang up during the night and
in order to save herself the tug cut
loose from the Chenango, and finally
succeeded in making Onota port. The
Chenango later brought up on reef
near Wood island, and when she was
espied from Onota when morning came
the tug made an effort to get to her
but gave up when there was no visible
sign of life aboard. A second unsuc-
cessful attempt was made in the after
noons but this time the tug captain and
some Of his crew were able to land on
Wood island in small boat and to their
surprise found the Chenango crew alive
and shelterjng themselves from the
fury of the storm as best the could.
Later. all were taken to Onota and
subsequently to Marquette. The Chen
ango is reported to be total wreck.
The steamer Ivanhoe is well remem-
bered by many Of our people. She ran
between here and the copper country,
until the railroad was completed from
L'Anse to Houghton.

say, for the biographical pages of the
Congressional Directory soon after tax

the striking phrases in the brief biog-

that Senator MARITIME never held public

wasn't his fault that a political mantle
never fell upon his shoulders previous to

On seventeen different occasions Sena-

Long before he could vote Senator
MARITIME took a lively interest in politics
and this interest deyeloped into intense
activity as he grew older. In the city

several decades one of the most strsnu-

He was at all times active in promoting
the welfare of Democracy. Whenever
opportunity offered he became a candi-

name to go on the ticket even in the
face of certain defeat. To be elected was
not the chief aim. His candidacy was
never based on selfish motives. He ran
for office merely as the means OF keep
