SPEED TOO GREAT.

Ii Is reported that a certain high
powered car owned on the Marquette
range successfully ran The blockade
on the Florence road one night last
week and that II was all primed up
for a second attempt but that II was
lost In the shuttle in some way.
The story is that the car is owned
and operated by Negaunee man who
makes regular trips to Florence, Wis.
There he takes on load OF fire-water
and sets out to run the blockade. His
first attempt was made as follows:
He logged up to the point at which
the policeman who tagged him Stood
as II he meant TO stop, and OF a sud
den he stepped on her. and shot
by the astonished policeman and was
safely into clear before the latter re-
covered.
His next visit to these parts brought
an order from the headquarters staff
to spare no eff / to get the man..
and a round OF the garages was made
for high-powered car. but none was
secured. The fellow came down
again during the week and was fol.
lowed TO Florence. The pursuers re-
turned 10 their posts determined to
get him. In order to make assur-
ance doubly sure the high officials
from Negaunee came down in plain
clothes TO superintend the capture.
He wasn't captured however. and
how he left Florence without capture
is a mystery.

MANY CATTLE SHIPPED.

A train OF thirty odd carloads OF
cattle left Ralph in Dickinson county
last uSnday for the Chicago market.
This shipment was the largest cattle
shipment ever made from the upper
peninsula and is an indication OF
what is to come when the present
plans OF the sheep and cattle men are
perfected and thousands of head of
cattle and sheep roam over the lands
that are at present going to waste in
.his rection.
in addition TO the cattle shipment
one OF fifteen carloads of sheep went
forward earlier in the week. Iron
county hasn't any OF these cattle and
sheep ranches yet but plans are un-
der way that will soon materialize.

FROM ~OUR BOYS,
Somewhere In France,
Sept. is. 1918.

Jas J. Gaffney,
Crystal Falls. Michigan.
Dear Friend Jim:
Well. ! suppose you are wondering
why haven't written. but did not care
much TO write at the camp back OF the
line. Have been up to the front two
times. and each time we gained our
objective. The last time, we were
over a week ahead Of our schedule,
so our time "up there" was not very
long, but we were working night and
day in rain, and rain means lot OF
mud. Seems as II every time we move
It has to rain-that is. when we are
up at the front.
A hill opposite our position, so a
story goes here. had cost the French
40, 900, but the boche did not have any
chance when our barrage opened up.
Our division was cited in our previous
fight, so we may be praised again.
This place was the strongest fortified
that l have. seen. Talk about barb
wire and trenches! The place was all
trenches so 1t seemed to US. Dugouts
we're all put in to stay, all heavily
timbered and deep in the ground. We
had no casualties. so were very lucky.
We have Y. M. C. A. man attached
to us SO expect that will be able to
write letter oftener now. We were
lucky before II we could scare up
enough paper TO even write one letter
a week. Have not been able to see
any OF the boys outside OF our division
that / know. Have seen John Phillip
a number OF times. and also Andrew
Uren.
Give my best regards to everyone

ODD. It's as quiet as It Is old--no
even movie show in town. The peo
pie are mostly old men. women ant
children. 1t looks funny to see Sc
many old people. but then. France Is
like that all over--the young men are
fighting their cause,
In these old villages the people
never change-it's just the same thing
over and over again for them. wo-
men work in the fields and think
nothing OF it--even the very old ones
would be lost II they didn't have some
thing TO do all the time. Everyone
treats US Americans very nicely. They
wonder at our high spirits-can't
seem to understand that trait In us
which calls for whistling, singing and
loud shouting to express the feelings.
These French people are the politest
OF people. Even though our lack OF
French hinders us we manage to make
ourselves understood by signs, and we
get along famously. The children are
crazy about the Yanks and are tag
ging along after them always. / guess
It's because we like cute children and
also because OF our generosity 10
them.
It's really funny to stand on street
corner and watch the different types
go by. Wooden shoes and sandals are
worn extensively by both old and
young-and it's picnic to watch peo-
pie gathering along dragging those
heavy, awkward things on their feet
The scenery is beautiful. The trees
and grass are still green and flowers
in full bloom. The French love beauty
and keep everything neat and artistic.
Grapes are grown in abundance and
war gardens are numerous. The peo-
pie have plenty Of food. the fats and
sweets are not near as plentiful as al
home. Sugar is a very precious ar
ticle-and candy cannot be bought
anywhere in the stores like at home.
We suffer from lack OF that, believe
me.

Dear Tom:

Dear Tom:
Well, 1t Is some months since
received the letter you sent to me
while / was in George. l suppose you
think am some piker for not answer.
ing before, but that letter gave me a
lot of food for thought, and / have
been thinking It over during my leis-
ure moments ever since.
You were speaking about the sail
boat ! used TO drive around when
blocked the skyline around Crystal
Falls. Well, Tom, have had plenty
OF opportunity to notice the kind OF
cars Uncle Sam" uses and never
have seen the make OF car you own,
so I am more convinced than ever that
your car was built to thrash oats and
not to drive on public highways.
Ny brother sends me the paper you
publish once week, and / will con-
fess that / am glad to get II, although
1t hurts when / say so. / never did
think | could ever find anything worth
reading in It, but l have changed my
mind. No doubt you are saying "The
kid is becoming sensible" Well, have
it your way We will argue the
point when / return.
We have had many experiences since
leaving the old town. My trip across
the ocean was quite uneventful, but
don't think / would make a good
sailor for the scenery does not agree
with me, and sure was glad to get
my feet on land again.
France surely is beautiful coun-
try, but its ways and its people are
very different from the people back
in Gods country. The land Is all laid
out in squares and reminds one OF /;
large park. OF course, wherever bat
ties have been fought things are des-
olate.
The Germans sent us their compli-
ment the other night In the form of6'
shells. / was already asleep when the
first she'll came over, but 1t woke me
The second was quite high, so I de-
cided to sleep again. and along came
the third, which was uncomfortable
low, and sure did whistle a pleasant
tune. 1t struck the entrance OF q
dugout near us, but did no damage
TO speak of. They continued to send
them over for about an hour and q
half, and then quit. 10 my relief. Not
that / was afraid. Tom, but you know
! always was a sleepy one, and do
love TO sleep.
Well. Tom, there are lot OF things
| would like to write, and most OF all
| would like once again TO express
my opinion OF your paper. for know
you are all puffed up over my con-
fession. With kindest regards to

CHICAGO. Dec. 10.-That there will

players who hoped to the ship yards
and munition plants last year rather
than take their chances at entering
the army or navy goes without say
ing. The magnates, who are holding
their annual sessions this week, won't
need to make a BLACK list" The

South Side fans raised ructions last
year when Joe Jackson quit and was
followed by Claud Williams and Byrd

one of the trio could return to the

not considered of the highest, ne
would never be able to endure the
storm Of criticism the stock yards
workers would hand him the first
day he appeared out against the fence
in left field.
All those players who lodged mill
tary service will face the hottest kind
OF criticism next season, both from
the fans and all opposing players.
Imagine what opposing players who
have gone overseas will say to cheer
up the ship yard workers. Well, ii
won't be gentle stun.
The Jumpers" are well known. The
magnates can afford to sit back and
let the public settle their cases.
