Chicago had a unique blaze yesterday, but the fir engine and hook and ladder departments could not lend assistance. All Lake Michigan was available to quench the flames, but the apparatus was lacking until the fire tug Swenle, stationed In the Calumet river at South Chicago, came to the rescue. The flames attacked the government pier, which extended east off Seventyninth street for about half a mile and then south with on or two breaks to Ninety-fifth street. . - The tug Swenie steamed out to ex tinguish the blaze.
OLD LANDMARK TO GO BradwelPs Island to be Used as a Turning Basin For Big Ships.
Bradwell's island, the famous landmark located at the foot of Ninetyfourth street in the Calumet river, will soon be wiped off the map and will no longer be recognized as one of South Chicago's landmarks. For the last three months G. A. Tripp, secretary of the Iroquois ,Iron & Steel company, has been engaged in taking subscriptions for the purpose of dredging off the island, and yesterday Mr. Tripp announced that he had isearly $6,500 on hand which had been sub scribed and that he had successfully negotiated, with the owner for the purchase of the property. The object of dredging the island is to furnish a turning basin in the Calumet river which will accommodate any of the large ships that are now plying the great lakes. Recently, when the Thomas Barlow, a large grain freighter, arrived in South Chicago to load her cargo, the captain was compelled to steam out into Lake Michigan in order to turn around, that her rear end might e loaded. With Bradwell's island wiped off the navigation map, it will eliminate this trouble, which will be of much assistance to the harbor and river Interests. Martin Hausler, the present owner of Bradwell's tract, has submitted deeds of the property to the federal authorities, which will be approved as soon as the title has been found perfect. If the title is found to be perfect bids will be advertised for and the contract for dredging will be awarded.' With few exceptions the river interests were the largest subscribers on the list. The Island was formerly owned bv Judge Bradwell, who recently sold the property to Martin Hausler. The island is an irregular nentaeon shape with the following dimensions, 440x350 and 295x110x60. When dredged out the Island will make a turning basin with a diameter of over 700 feet. It is expected that the deal will be put through within the next two weeks and that the contract will be awarded before the end of this month. SHOOT SCORE OF DOGS Brutes Are Killed Because They Are Unmuzzled Bite People. A mad dog panic raged through Parkside yesterday afternoon and was accompanied by the shooting of twen ty-two of the unmuzzled beasts. The campaign of slaughter conducted by the police was marked by several ex citing incidents when dogs at bay, realizing that their lives were doomed. turned on the bluecoats and fought furiously. John Anderson, while assisting a policeman in killing one of the unmuzzled canines, was bitten in the arm, and was immediately taken to the Pasteur institute and treated. Anna Carman, eight years old, was bitten by a dog owned by Charles Duggan and her right arm was severely torn. The dog was caught and shot Duggan lives at Seventy-ninth street and South Chicago avenue. WILL IflSIT SWEDEN I. O. Carlson, 9112 Superior avenue, the congenial manager of the General Furniture company, will leave with his family about June 20 for Northern Sweden, and will be absent for about three months. This will certainly be one of the happiest events in the life of Mr. Carlson, In that, it will be the first time he has visited his fatherland since coming to the Unted States, 15 years ago. The meeting with his relatives will be a happy one in more ways than one, as he was married eight years ago and, including his wife, has two bright little children, all of whom will receive a hearty welcome. Mr. Carlson, is well known in South Chicago and has a host of friends. He has been identified with , ,ie General Furniture company for the past eight years and who regard him as the bone and sinew of the institution RAIL LULL HAS RUN ALL THE TIME During the time when all corporations were 'closing down their shops during the "financial stringency," the rail mill number 1 of the Illinois Steel company was not closed down, only two weeks in February, which were for repairs. All other departments in this huge plant were closed for indefinite periods on account of lack of orders, but not once did the number 1 rail mill shut down for the lack of orders. Betwen six hundred to seven hundred men were kept on the payroll as the result of this mill not closing down while running all the while it did not run full force all the time. Only when a rush order sent, did the mill run full force.

By CLARISSA MACKIE. 5 Copyrighted, 1908, by Associated j Literary Press. "It is the portrait of my ancestress, Mistress Elizabeth Mowbray," remark ed Dickson to his assembled guests, With one accord the four persons seat ed at the table in the great dining room turned and looked at the picture. Framed In gold, it hung over the chimney piece, reaching almost to the lofty celling. It depicted the life size figure of a beautiful young woman In a pale gray gown In the fashion of a century past. A large gray plumed hat rested on her dark hair, and about her shoulders was a loose rose pink cloak caught together by one slender hand, while the other held a plumy spray of white lilac. Dickson arose, glass in hand. "To Mistress Mowbray; always young, al ways beautiful and" he paused and added, with a mischievous glance at his wife "ever silent!" There was laughter from the men and a merry protest from Mrs. Dickson as they drank the toast and re sumed their Beats. "Rather an unfair advantage to take of Mistress Mowbray," objected Mark Randolph, with a glance toward the portrait. "I am sure that Harry's insinuation i3 quite unjust," said Mrs. Dickson, with spirit. "Family history relates that Elizabeth Mowbray possessed a very pretty wltT' "I suppose there is a story connected with the fair lady?" insinuated Searles, with a smile at his host. "There is," admitted Dickson cheer fully. "There is some tale about the ghost of Mistress Mowbray, who is said to step down from her portrait and walk about this room, leaving a fragrance of white lilac in her wake." "Have you witnessed this appari tlon?" asked Randolph, with Interest. "Never," replied Dickson, helping himself to walnuts, "but I will admit," he continued, with a quizzical glance at his pretty wife, "that I have de tected the odor of white lilac in this room!" "When does the ghost walk?" asked Randolph. i "Invariably on the 13th of Mnrch.1

replied 'Dickson, leaning" "Back In his chair and looking fixedly at the portrait. "We have never seen the apparition, but some of the servants claim
to have seen it It has so happened that we have never been at the hall on the 13th of March since our honeymoon. I recollect that we came downstairs one morning on the 14th of March and detected a strong odor of white mac. As the conservatory was empty of plants and as there were no flowers of any sort In the house, it was rather a" "A shock!" interpolated Mrs. Dick son, with decision. "It was a positive shock to smell the odor of white lilac that morning, especially as old Hannah had regaled us with the story the night before." "And so you have never waited up to see the ghost walk?" queried Randolph as he opened the door for his hostess. "No. To tell the truth, we always run away," she laughed. "Suppose you come down on the 13th of next month and watch for Mistress Mowbray. Hannah will take care of you, and then 3rou can report to us the result of your Investigations." . j "Agreed," he said readily, and as she left the room he returned to the table and remarked to the others, "Any vol unteers to keep me company?" "Not I," returned Searles quickly. "I shall be south about that time." "And we," said Dickson lightly, "will be in Egypt." "I. had forgotten that," said Randolph. "Nevertheless I shall accept Mrs. Dickson's Invitation to- run down here and make the acquaintance of fair Mistress Mowbray." ne was looking at the picture with dreamy abstraction in his eyes. . "You admire my beautiful ancestress, then, Mark?" Dickson shot a keen glance at his friend, "Yes," was the low response. "She reminds me of another whom I once knew." " On the 13th of March Randolph Journeyed down to the sleepy old New England village where the Dickson homestead spread its comfortable wings behind sheltering elms, now leafless and soughing mournfully in the east wind. Within doors all was cheeriness and comfort, with soft lamplight and blazing Arcs. When nannah had Cleared the dinner table and departed, Randolph threw himself into a huge easy chair before the fire in, the dining room and looked up at the pictured face of Mistress Mowbray. He compared her face with that of another Elizabeth Mowbray, a ceusin of Harry Dickson and also a descendant of the lady In the picture. It was an old story now, ten years old. He and Beth had quarreled, and she had returned his ring and gone back to her home in the south. They had never met afterward, but he had never forgotten. Randolph placed not the slightest cre dence in the story of the apparition of Mistress Mowbray, but the idea of spending an uninterrupted evening be fore the portrait appealed to him. Un able to longer withstand the glance of the tender eyes, he buried bis face in the upturned palms of his hands and gave himself up to unhappy musings. Hour after hour was tolled by the tall clock in the hall, and when the bell chimed 12 Randolph roused himself with a slight start from the half doz in which he had indulged. Involuntarily he gazed at the portrait, and a great wonder came into his eyes. He wheeled his chair away from the fireplace and stared. He rubbed his eyes, looked about the softly light ed room and stared again. There was the same youthful figure, with its gray' plumed hat, gray gown and rose pink cloak caught together by one slender white hand. It was all as it had been before save that now there was life in it life In the soft brown eyes and in a certain tremulous movement of the pink bowed lips. With white face and unbelieving eyes he watched the figure step slowly down from the frame, and he saw the movement of the purple velvet dra peries that formed the background. She stepped upon the wide mantel piece, which was devoid of ornament, and made an imperious gesture with her hand, and as she did so he was conscious of the heavy scent of white lilac from the branch she carried. "My good sir, pray assist me to the floor," she said in a low, vibrant voice As in a dream, Randolph hastily fetched a chair and supplemented its height with a hassock. With grave courtesy he extended a hand to the lady on the mantel, and as she gave him the tips of her fingers he felt the warmth of flesh and blood. Lightly she stepped down, gathering her skirts gracefully about her dainty gray shod feet, and presently she stood beside him, looking timidly at him from beneath the shadow of her long lashes. "My Godr he muttered, staring from the vision before him to the empty frame above the chimney piece. With a quick movement the girl slipped the pink cloak from her shoulders and removed the gray plumed hat from her crown of dusky hair. "It is only I, Mark," she said wistfully. "I don't understand yet." He pass ed a hand over his dazed eyes. She stepped forward and pressed upon a carved portion of the mantel. Instantaneously there was a movement, and the painted canvas swung into nlace with a little click. There was Mistress Mowbray in her accustomed place above the shelf, and beside him was Beth. "It is one of Harry's Jokes," she explained in a low, breathless tone. "He wrote me a month ago and asked me to come here and enact the apparition of Mistress Mowbray. It was a favorite pastime when we were children, for there is a secret stair behind the chimney, and the portrait is really a door which opens upon It. Harry said 1 that a "skeptical friend would ?2STid

I was reluctant to do such a thing, but Harry has been very kind to me and I consented. They did not tell me who the 'skeptical friend' would be, and it was a surprise to me when I looked down upon your upturned face." She leaned against the tall back of a chair with down bent head and quivering lips. "And you could have gone back and away from me again and I never would have known," he said, a vague wonder dawning in his eyes. She did not reply. "But you stayed you made yourself known to me you came down to me! What do you mean, Beth?" She lifted her head slowly and looked at him through misty, Joyous eyes, and he understood. Hannah's voice broke crisply upon the blissful silence. "A cablegram, Mr. Randolph!" Mark tore open the yellow envelope.
