PRoCEEDs.-The total sum of the
proceeds of the donations for the Ger
man War Fund collected in this County,
aside from the $3.50 90 already forward
ed from Two Rivers, viii amount, as far
as ascertained, TO over 100000. Among
the several Towns, the highest praise Is
undoubtedly due to Centerville, which
delivered here the sum Of Sl05. go in
cash. The success Is in a great measure
to be ascribed to the excellent organiza
ton Of the Branch Society there There
are few Coug lies in this State, with the
same population, who can give better
evidence of the libarality and patriotism
of its residents, than our Couaty.

ANOTHER ENTERPRISE.


On the evening of the 10th of Septem-
Der, number of our business men as.
semb!ed in the Office of the Windiate
House, to take measures which would
lead to the organization of dry dock
company. The meeting was addressed
by Hon. Jos. Villas, Nfr. Markham and
numerous other gentlemen, the result OF
which was, paper was drawn up for the
purpose of soliciting subscriptions to the
! capital stock, which was fixed at $50, 900,
at $500 share. A committee was
appointed to attend to the circulation of
the docket, and then the shares began to
go. Before the meeting adjourned, nearly
ten thousand dollars worth of stock was
taken, and since then the sum has reach
ed S25, 200, enough to build the Dry
Dock, and more subscriptions are being
received daily. Lots valued at So, 900
have been offered, the owners thereof
taking eighty shares of the capital stock
for payment thereof, and now, all that is
wanted is meeting of the share holders,
the organization Of the Company and the
election of officers. when material for
building purposes will be purchased, and
next spring the work commenced in ear
nest. We have said nothing of this new
enterprise before, for the reason that we
desired first to see whether the scheme
proved to be successful. Such is the
case, as has been fully demonstrated.
The only wonder is that this has not
been thought of before. Situated as we
are, on a direct line Of travel between
Chicago and the Straits, vessel wreck
ed anywhere north of Milwaukee, in
Lake Michigan, mast come here for re-
pairs. With harbor unequalled on the
entire chair of Lakes with country
aboun9ing in the very best kind of ship
timber; with skilled workmen and every
thing to facilitate the repairs of vessel,
it seems strange that such a project has
not before been undertaken. But the
matter is now in the hands of some of
our most influential citizens, and there
need be no doubts entertained as to the
certainty of its construction. La this
connection we may mention hIessrs.
Green Rand, Jonah Richards and Capt
Guyles, WHO are among the heaviest
stockholders.
The Dock will be built somewhere on
the south side of the riYer, above Witt
mann's stave factory, aud when com
menced. will be pushed through as rap
idly as money and men can do it, SO that
ere another Fall we may record its COM
pletion.
The citizens may congratulate them
selves on the success OF the enterprise, as
it will prove an advantage to the City in
many ways.
It was pleasing to see how handsomely
our business men ''came down." many
Of tIlcm taking from twenty to eighty
shares. The ship carpenters helped the
project with their $25 and $50 subscrip-
tions, knowing that it would be paying
investment.
\ meeting Of the stock holders will
take place on the 22d inst, when the
Company will be organized and the Of
Gcers elected.
We are to have q Dry Dock. Let US
rejoice

Too SHARP FOR THEM.-While Mr..
Ray Flint, of Neshoto, was in Milwaukee
last week, three roughs attempted to
steal his watch. By little exercise Of
his pugalistic attainments, he knocked
one fellow down three times and was pre-
pairing to ''go for" the other two when
the police coming up, put them to fight.
This is the second time Milwaukee
sharpers have tried to "pick up" resi-
dents of this County, and have failed
in both cases.

MISMICOTT.
This thriving little village is perhap

This thriving little village is perhaps
deserving of at least passing notice in
the annals Of our County. Situated as
it is in the valley of river Of the same
name, surrounded by rich farmingsdis-
trict, cultivated by enterprising husband
men who, by~their thrift and industry,
add material worth to its business enter
prises. We have here two general stores,
each doing a fine business; tin and hard
ware establishment not excelled even in
your City in the amount or variety Of its
stock, and does credit to its enterprising
proprietor, j. III. Terens. The Grist
Mill has been thoroughly repaired and
furnished with all the modern improve
ments by its present owner, Albert We
hausen, who has spared no pains to rem
der it what it really is-a first class es-
Enlistment of its kind. As Saw Mill
is almost indispensable in a country
where there is still timber enough to sup
ply the local demand, and furnish sur
plus tor expectation, it is hardly necessary
to mention that we are supplied with
good one that is doing considerable bust
ness, having exported the present season
several cargoes Of LUMBER, beside supply
ing the local demand, which is by no
means small. Our brewery is by no
means an establishment to be overlooked
nor under-rated, as it is the source from
whence our people are supplied with a
wholesome and healthy beverage which |
It's portly proprietor, Julius Linsted, well
knows how to manufacture. We have
also tannery, two blacksmith shops, a
large wagon and blacksmith shop COM
bined, erected by Nessrs. Bruemmer
and Knutzen and DOW nearly completed.
We have just witnessed the imposing
ceremony Of the laying of the corner
stone of the German Lutheran Church |
Of Mishicott, that is to be put up here
this Fall. The main building is to be
by forty-six feet. The style !
y
ed. Our public houses here are too well |
known to need particular notice. But
noticing a ''fsh story" in orc of our
Western Journals of pickerel being
caught weighing twelve pounds, we
would mention one caught in the river |
here last summer weighing fourteen
pounds and two ounces, and meaHsring
tory inches in length, beside one caught /
recently weighing twelve pounds and
another that ,Oas MT caught, but swallow
ed q hook, line. pole and all, and would |
have swallowed the fisher
man toe, had he net wisely fastened his
fishing tackle to a stump near the river
instead of bolding it himself But as
ish stories are sometimes doubted, the
latter clause of this can be verified by
calling on Louis Kohnke, who is the |
unfortunate looser Of the property above
described. &C."

SHPYARD PoINr-The schooner 1p-
prenttce Boy, now hauled out at the
upper yard, presents rather forlorn
appearance. Actually there is no bottom
on her, it having been ground off by the
actioa Of the waves, as to leave but
mass Of splinters. Not only her bottom
is damaged, but holes are STAYED through
as far as the water line, caused by large
rocks, on which she rested all last winter.
Whether she will be repaired or not, we
cannot say, but arc inclined to think that
if done, it will be most difficult job. 1t
seems almost impossible that craft in
her condition, could be got off the rocks
and made to float.
A large number Of workmen are repair
ing the schooner San .JactRto, which
is also hauled out at Shipyard Point. She
viii be rebuilt entirely, from keel to rail,
and in the Spring, viii again be ready
for business. Jasper Hanson is the con-
tractor.
