DEATH CAME SUDDENLY
Mrs. r. H. Peters of Town of
Lincoln Died February l 9th
at Muncie, Indiana.

Word was received by the
4. II. Peters family of the
town of Lincoln last Saturday
of the death and burial of
AIRS. Peters at Muncie, Ind.
Her death ii is said occurred
very suddenly on the 18th,
and burial was made the 22nd
At her old home near that
city.
Some time ago Mrs. Peters
left their farm home south of
Eagle River for Muncie, ex-
pecting TO visit and also seek
treatment for an ailment, at
that time unknown, but which
proved to have been cancer
of the stomach. Owing to
wires between Chicago and
this section being down on
account of storms for the past
week no notification could be
gotten to the family here I'M
al Saturday.
About three years ago the
r. II. Peters family located on
farm south of town in the
town of Lincoln which they
had purchased, and since then
Mrs. Peters has been nursing
IN this community. Before
coming here she for five years
previous had charge of an iso-
iatiOn hospital at Muncie.
When war broke out she APP
piled for war work in the hos
pitfalls in France but failed TO
secure a commission.
Besides a husband and two
children by a former mar
rage, no other relatives re-
side here; all her relatives be-
ing in Indiana. During their
residence here she accumulat-
ed a host of friends who eX-
tend sympathy TO the family.

dent.

Mckinley, aged eighty-one
years, was held Monday from

Rev. w. ]. Davies officiating.
Mrs. Mckinley had been in
poor health for some time,
and death found her Saturday
of last week at her home on
River street. For the past
thirty-One years she had been
a resident of Eagle River and
was one of the old land marks
of this section.
Thirty-one years ago she
with her husband, James Nc
Kinley, who died here some
ten years ago, came to Eagle
River from the southern part
of the state, near Winnecon-
ne. Mr.. Mckinley was one of
the prominent old-time log
gers of this section and nor
thern Michigan and he and
his wife were identified with
the early history of this
region.
A sister, Mrs. VIM. Donar,
and a brother, Charles Nc

niece at Oshkosh, comprise
the surviving relatives.

this union two children were
born; G. l.. Carter and Mrs. N.
NJ. Emmons, both residents of
Eagle River.
In 1891 he came to Eagle
River and homesteaded a
piece of land on Catfish lake
known as Carriers Point, and
where he farmed for some
years. Moved into the village
in 1909 and resided here un-
til four years later when he,
with his son, went to Tavares,
Florida, for the winter. He
purchased property in that
city and barring a brief visit
in Eagle River the following
year, has made Florida his
home. This winter he was
taken to his bed, about six
weeks ago, and for the past
four weeks had been uncon-
scious most of the time. His
death had been expected for
some time.
None of the children at
tended, owing to there being
no train service for the past
week.

country as a summer outing
place.
Willard Curtis of State Line
who came down to Eagle Riv-
er last Friday, claims that the
Curtis camps on Duck lake
are entirely covered with
snow, and that a man may
walk over the tops of the
buildings without knowing
there is a habitation within
miles.
The snowfall as reported to
the News by F. III. Dildine,
who operates the weather
chart for the Wisconsin Val
ley Improvement company at
Eagle River, is authority that
there has been a fall of 44.25
inches since winter set IN.
Just what the fall has been
during the past week over
this section is not known.
State Line has a much heavi-
er fall than Eagle River, and
Watersmeet a still heavier
fall than State Line.
Hurley, Superior and Du-
luth up to today are just get
ting out from under the ter
rife fall of snow of the past

The Superior schools will
be closed for the week, &C

conditions there is hopes that
within the next week or Sc
will see all the snow practic-
ally gone-at least enough ia

famous in winter sports if the
facts are brought to the
sports-loving public, and also
If the concerted efforts of the
railroads and interested re-
sort men are brought to bear
on winter service to the tour
list. He says:
Dear Menefee:
Your recent article on,
"Capitalizing Winter" sug-
gests to me one feature that
seems practical, needing only
a little concerted action on
the part of resort owners,
commercial clubs and general
passenger agents.
Many of the summer guests
and eottagers would spend
Xmas holidays at the resorts
or in the cottages, if the ia
.cilities and inducements on
the part of resort owners and
railroads were better orga-
nized.
Many of us already know
or believe that we would have
a glorious time going back
with our families and friends
for the Christmas holidays, if
we could have proper train
service and holiday rates.
Snow shoeing, tobogganing,
skiing, rabbit hunting, fish
ing through the ice, chopping
wood. trapping, cannot be sur
passed as sports.
There is hardly a human be-
ing on earth, whether a Hot
tentot or an Icelander, wheth-
er a boarder at the Black
stone, or an inmate of the
Old Folks Home who does not
enjoy sitting before a big
wood fire and seeing the cord
wood go up in flame. A game
of checkers before a hot fire,
with blizzard raging outside
and even if one has to don an
extra wool shirt and take
something hot to keep warm,
is fully as enjoyable as a game
under the shade of a tree
where one must use a fan to
keep off the flies and drink
iced lemonade to keep cool.

lake when there was plenty
of snow, about 20 or more be-
low zero, and know what a
real Villas county blizzard is.
| enjoyed this trip as well as
any / have made in the sum-
mer. 1t is just inspiring to
imagine yourself saving a
hole in the ice and jumping in
with Roosevelt for a bath, as
it is to loll on the beach at
Miami, Florida, with Peggy
Joyce's ex-husband and see
the mermaids disport in the

Joining cottagers, inviting
them to return Christmas, so
as to get them TO thinking
about it in a practical way;
then the commercial clubs
should take it up and keep it
alive as a county proposition.
All results should be intelli-
gently laid before the gener-
al passenger agents, urging
holiday rates and proper train
service. These general pas
senger agents should in turn
canvass the persons who have
expressed themselves favor
able, and ask for support of
the project.
Moreover if your State

posed to think many would

would come in their fiivvers
even if we would have to be
sent home drawn by Fordsons
pushing snow plows.

Still-one could forgive that.

the strength was such strength as
his mother could give him.
And one would have wondered

But however that may have
been, he was free enough from
vanity to acknowledge readily

that his wits were less Keen than
those Of Crichton Hoodless.
Rather OBVIOUSLY en- route from
London to Cairo, from whence
they planned a trip up the Nile,
and a shooting expedition In

halted at Paris, Monte Carlo and
Alexandra.

Hoodless had learned, just that

there was some similar passing
coup being effected in Cairo.
"Poor old Criehton," smiled
Dick Marchurst, honestly wishing
him fortune.
And after al there was no
hurry. The season was no more
than at its beginning and 4 little
extra delay would not appreciably
affect the duration of the shooting
trip, nor the supply Of lions In
Korslofan.
Perfectly patient, because he
was comfortable, q little lazy, and
because he was genuinely fond Of
Hoodless, Marehurst sat content,
watching the crowd.

acquaintance over the county. He is
a successful farmer of the Clear Lake
vicinity and tireless worker in the
interest of any good cause. He has
been especially active in the matter of

the county and, this is one of the many
reasons why his friends are urging him
to make the race for County Commits
sioner. He enters into the campaign
with the hearty endorsement of his
neighbors and friends, in fact, il is due
to their urging that he is making the
