Elk Hunters

Approximately 700 hunters de-
ployed throughout the Spotted Bear
region, near Whitefsh, Mont, have
killed 10 elk this season, forest
rangers report. Last year many
carcasses of the heavy game were
left in the forests by hunters un-
able to pack them out, but rangers
said that most of the 1912 cam
paigners were properly equipped to
take out their kills, and in some
cases were hunting the elk for food.

Former Bluffton Man
Is Home After Five
Months OF Hardship

Months Ut Hardship
Continued from page IL
Export lines pier on the New Jersey
side of the Hudson river Tuesday
night, August 25.
Exhausted from Ordeal
He was required to wait three
days before he was permitted to be
released after which he was met by
his wife. Too exhausted from the
ordeal in the japanese concentration
camp he made plans to go i'm
mediately to Wooster instead of the
Presbyterian convention as original
ly planned.
He will live with his family in
Wooster for the duration of the war
and will spend several months con-
valescing from the effects of long
months of inadequate food and
clothing. After he has thoroughly
rested he will tell the story of his ex-
periences in the various churches OF
his denomination and in the Bluffton
area.
Herded Into Building
Rev. Steiner had been interned at
Hong Kong since the Japanese
/, gained control of that area. A large
number of missionaries, newspaper
writers, business men and their fam
lilies were herded into a building
much too small for the large num-
Der.
Here they were given just enough
food to keep alive and no clothing
other than that which they had
When garments became worn to
shreds curtains and every piece of
cloth available were used to impro-
wise the clothing.
Named Supervisor
Rev. Steiner was selected as sup
ervisor of the group and conferred
with the Japanese on the welfare
and treatment of the internees. The
food consisted largely of small bowls
of rice and was entirely inadequate
to maintain physical health.
The minister had been working in
Hainan mission field at the time the
war broke out between United States
and Japan under the direction of
Presbyterian Board of Foreign Mis-
sions which had maintained four
stationed on the island.
In Field q Years
Rev. Steiner has been located in
the Chinese mission field for the
past 27 years. The family returned
to this country in 1888 when the
japanese seized the island of Hahn
an. When the fighting ceased Rev.
Steiner returned to the island in the
summer of 1889.
Altho under Japanese control, it
was possible to carry on a limited
amount of missionary work prior to
Pearl Harbor, it was stated. After
that, however, all American mis-
sionaries, business men and news
paper correspondents were interned
by the Japanese.
Living in this district are one
brother, j. E. Steiner of Pandora
and a sister Mrs. Archie Abeplin of
near Findlay. He has three other
brothers Rev. Paul Steiner of Pitti-
vile, Fulton county; Prof. Oliver
Steiner of Cleveland, Tenn, and DIR.
j. c. Steiner of Willard. Another
sister Mrs. Armin Steiner formerly
lived in Pandora.
Rev. Steiner's wife has two sisters
in Bluffton, Mrs. Louis Gaiffe and
Mrs. Chas. Matthey.
