CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1909.
THREE BOATS AND
52 LIVES ARE LOST
ONE OF THE MOST DISASTROUS
STORMS IN THE HISTORY OF
GREAT LAKES TRADE.
STEEL CARFERRY WRECKED
Something Will be Done to Stop Sail
ing on the Lakes in December
—Rescuing Tug Returns
After Vain Search.
Cleveland, O. —Fifty-two lives were
lost in the storm that swept Lake
Erie, to say nothing of the loss
of property that may reach $1,000,000.
With the possible exception of the
gale that wrecked a dozen modern
steel vessels on Lake Superior in
1905, it was the most disas - ous storm
in the history of the lake trade.
Three big steamers were wrecked,
and there was a big loss of life in
every, case, The big steel earferry
steamer Marquette & Bessemer No. 2
has been added to the list of lost
vessels with the loss of 32 lives.
That, with the loss of life on the
steamers W. C. Richardson and
Clarion, makes a total of 52.
The Alva 15., in command of Capt.
John Ryan, who made a thorough
search for the 13 missing members
of the steamer Clarion, has returned
to port without finding any trace of
the lifeboat or the sailors. That all
the men were lost is quite certain. If
they had been picked up by a down
bound steamer it would have been
reported, as all the ships that were
out have been heard from.
Winter navigation has been very
costly ail around this year, but the
lesson will probably do some good
and will result in the saving of life
and property in the future. That
something will be done to stop sailing
on the lakes in December is certain.

TOSTAMPOUTWHITESLAVERY
Horrible Details of Discoveries Made
by Agents of the Immigration
Commission Are Told.
Washington, I). C. —Stories of re
volting practices of American and for
eign procurers of women for importa
tion into the United States for im
moral purposes are told in a report
just, issued by the immigration com
mission. The recommendations of the
commission contemplate a closer
scrutiny of the admission of alien
women and renewed efforts to stamp
out the so-called "white slave traffic."
In explanation of the act of laying
bare to the public horrible details of
discoveries by its agents, the com
mission says that the white slave traf
fic is the most pitiful and the most
revolting phase of the immigration
question.
The inquiry covered the cities of
New York, Chicago, San Francisco,
Seattle, Portland, Salt Lake, Ogden,
Mutte, Denver, Buffalo, Boston and
New Orleans. The report deals with
methods being used by men and
women procurers to lure women into
this country for immoral purposes.
In some countries men and women
in the business of enticing innocent
firls to the United States resort to
proffers of attractive positions, and in
many cases the men offer themselves
in marriage and frequently risk pros
ecution on charges of bigamy in order
to attain their desires.
Negro Kills Two White Women.
Savannah, (la. -Sprawled hideously
about the halls and rooms of
their home in the heart of the resi
dence section of Savannah, the muti
lated bodies of Mrs. Eliza Cribble, 70,
and of her daughter, Mrs. Carrie Os
lander, were found by a patrolman
who was attracted by the moans of
a third woman, Mrs. Maggie Hunter,
who is at the point of death in the
Savannah hospital. Physicians state
that Mrs. Oslander was the victim
of a criminal assault before she was
killed. The murderer was a negro.
NEW RAILWAYS IN
CENTRAL CANADA
AMERICAN SETTLERS WELCOME
AND DC. NG WELL.
The Portland Oregonian, of Port
land, Oregon, published a cartoon on
tho immigration of U. S. people to
Canada, in ivs issue of October 5,
1909. The picture was accompanied
by the following article:
"Losing American Citizens. The ex
odus of American farmers to Canada
continues to be a phenomenon of the
first importance. More of them arj
crossing the border this fall than
ever before, and they are flocking
from all parts of the country. Former
ly it was the Middle West alone which
thus lost the heart of its citizenship.
Now all sections of the Union suffer
alike. The regret which we cannot
help feeling over the migration jf
many thousands of excellent citizens
has an economic side which causes
some concern. The 70,000 farmers
who will goto Canada to live this fall
will take with them some $70,000,000
in cash and effects. This is by no
means a negligible sum, and makes a
very appreciable drain on our re
sources. But, of course, the most se
rious loss is the men themselves and
their families, who have forsaken the
land of (he free and the home of the
brave to dwell under the rule of a
monarch.
Why do they go? Naturally the
cheap and fertile land of Western Can
ada attracts them. Each emigrant
goes with a reasonable expectation of
bettering his fortune. Indeed, in a
few years he may grow rich through
the abundant crops he can raise and
the increase of land values. But per
haps that is not the sole reason for
the astonishing migration. There is
a common notion abroad that, in Can
ada life and property are appreciably
safer than they are here. Murders
are not so frequent, and are more
speedily and surely punished. Mobs
and the so-called 'unwritten law' are
virtually unknown in Canada. Again
the law is a vastly more ascertainable
entity there. Canada does not per
mit its judges to veto acts of the leg
islative body. When a statute has
been enacted it is known to be the
law of the land until it is repealed,
this naturally imparts to Canadian
civilization a security and stability
which we have not yet attained.
"We must remember, in the same
connection, that the Canadian protec
tive tariff is far less exorbitant than
ours, and much less boldly arranged
for the benefit of special favorites.
Hence there is an impression, very
widely diffused, that the Canadians
are not so wickedly robbed by the
trusts as we are in this country. Rea
sons like these sufficiently account for
the exodus of a body of citizens, whom
we can ill afford to lose, but they do
not much assuage our regret that they
cannot be retained in the United
States."
Speaking of this, a Canadian Gov
ernment representative says that the
Americans who cross the border are
most welcome. The splendid areas
of virgin soil, a large quantity of which
is given away as free homesteads, lie
close to existing railways and to those
under construction. The railway lines
that are assisting in this development
are the Canadian Pacific, the Cana
dian Northern and the Grand Trunk
Pacific. The latter is built entirely on
Canadian soil, and has opened up a
wonderful stretch of land. Along this
line during the year about closed thou
sands of American settlers have made
their homes. They have built the
towns, and immediately began as fac
tors in the building up of the great
Canadian West.
Agents of the Government are lo
cated in various cities throughout the
United States who will be pleased to
give any information that may be de
sired to further the interest of th«
settler.

It was married mevi's night at the
revival meeting.
"Let .-ill you husbands who have
troubles on your minds stand up!"
shouted the emotional preacher at the
height of his spasm.
Instantly every man in the church
rose to his feet except one.
"Ah!" exclaimed the preacher peer
ing out at this lone 112 itter, who occu
pied a chair near the door and apart
from the others. "You are one in a
million."
"It ain't that," piped back this one
helplessly, as the rest of the congre
ation turned to gaze suspiciously at
him. 'i can't get up; I'm paralyzed!"
A Revelation to the Cook.
A happily married woman, who had
enjoyed 33 years of wedlock, and who
was the grandmother of four beautiful
little children, had an amusing old
colored woman for a cook.
One day when a box of especially
beautiful flowers was left for the mis
tress the cook happened to be present,
and she said: "Yo' husband send you
all the pretty flowers you gits, missy?"
"Certainly, my husband, mammy,"
proudly answered the lady.
"Glory!" exclaimed the cook, "he
suttenly am holdin' out well."—Ladies'

SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
Baby Boy Had Intense Itching Humor
—Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Found a Cure in Cuticura.
"Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with a rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks I took him
to the doctor but it got worse. The
rash ran together and mad© largo
blisters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything but scratch and we had
to wrap his hands up to keep him
from tearing the flesh open till the
blood would run. The itching was In
tense. The skin on his back became
hard and rough like the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. But I found a remedy
in Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint
ment. The result was almost mag
ical. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight
est symptom of it since he was cured.

A famous dean was once at dinner,
when, just as the cloth was removed,
the subject of discourse happened to
be that of extraordinary mortality
among lawyers. "We have lost," said
a gentleman, "not less than six emi

The dean, who was quite deaf, rose as
his friend finished his remarks, ana
gave the company grace—** For this

thankful."
Sentiments for Husbands.
"When a man really loves his wife
he ought to combine all his nicest
sentiments toward other women into
one big sentiment for her.
"He should show her the respect he
feels toward his mother; the polite
ness he shows other women, and the
responsibility he feels toward his sis
ter.
"To all of that he should add the
great love he should feel for a wife."
Fine Tonic Mixture.
A superior tonic, appetizer and stlui
ulant for the exhausted overworked
system is one-half pint good whiskey to
which should be added one ounce com
pound fluid balmwort and one ounce
compound syrup sarsaparilla. As an
appetizer take a tablespoonful before
meals. As a tonic take after meals
and at bedtime.
Any druggist can mix it quickly.
Good for the Nerves.
At a recent archery tournament in
London 300 women took part in the
contest, the game having become very
popular. It is recommended by Lon

taken very kindly to the sport, but the
renewal of interest abroad may effect
a change in this country.

DEEP-SEATED COUGH
CURED IN FIVE HOURS.
New Home-Made Syrup.
(Cut this Out.)
From Boston Post.
Progress in medical compounds
never ceases, and now it is stated by
a prominent medical man that any
deep-seated cough or cold on the
lungs can be actually cured in five
hours by the clock. Opium or mor
phine have been resorted to in the
past, as relief measures. But now it
is learned that the system must be
treated to rid it of inllammation and
congestion. A tonic laxative cough
syrurp does the work so quickly and
thoroughly as to be almost magical.
What heretofore has taken weeks to
cure can be accomplished in hours.
Get this formula filled or mix it at
home and always keep it on hand:
One-half ounce fluid wild cherry
bark, one ounce compound essence
cardiol and three ounces syrup white
pine compound. Shake the bottle and
take twenty drops every half hour
for four hours. Then take one-half
to one teaspoonful three or four times
a day until the system is purified and
toned up. Give children less according
to age. One filling will usually cure
a whole family, as the dose is small.
An Ever Ready Opening.
The editor suddenly became con
scious that some one was standing be
hind him. Looking round, his glance
fell u]>on a seedy looking individual
with the eyes of a crank.
"I beg your pardon," said the new
comer, "but is there an openin' here
for a first-class intellectual writer?"
"Yes," grimly responded the editor.
"An ingenious carpenter, foreseeing
your visit, has provided an excellent
opening. Turn the knob to the right,
and do not slam the door as you go
out."'—The Sunday Magazine.
There All the Time.
It is told of Dr. Thorold that he waa
once asked to give away the prizes at
a school belonging to the London
school board.
In the course of his opening address
he gravely asked the children, "Which •
was the largest island in the world be
for Australia was discovered?"
When the youngsters gave it up, he
said in the same grave way, which
made them laugh all the more, "Why,
Australia, of course; it was there all
the time!"
