A CHANCE TO MAKE A FORTUNE
We stated last week that Mr.. S. A. Ben
jamin offered his splendid farm for sale,
situated in the town of Cato, at very
low figure We would also say that it
has the advantage of most farms by its
good watering facilities, and large guam
titles of maple growing upon it. This
point-if we are not mistaken-was once
the property Of the old railroad company
which they had intended to make their
watering station. Mr.. Benjamin offers
this for sale because his extensive bust
ness in Brown County requires his whole
attention. This farm of 100 acres is
situated about one mile below what is
called the Cato Corners and is largely
improved Anyone wishing to purchase
can gain information by calling at this
Office or at the -four store of p Z. Smith,
in this city. 5-tf

THE Sociable held at The Presbyterian
Church, on Tuesday evening was a pleas
ant affair, though not as largely attend
ed as it so richly deserved. In the must
cal line it was one of UNSURPASSED sue
cess, affording a rare treat to our song
loving people.
Theppening piece was charming duet
sung by Miss. Josie Young, and Miss
Clara Wilcox, which was followed by
Waiting an exquisite gem, rendered
by Miss Eta Barrie, in her finest voice
and happiest manner We are unable
to mention separately the different pieces
Of the programme, but each was per-
formed with nice feeling and in true ar
tistic style. The last piece sung alter
nately by Mr.. Thombs and the choir
appeared to rs one of the best executed
of the evening. May we soon have a
repetition of this successful attempt by
our obliging sweet singers. We want
more music in our Manitowoc Society,
and heartily thank the beautiful leading
spirit of the Sociable and its kind and
obliging executive members, for the great
pleasure enjoyed by this, their first effort
in that noble aim

Mr. Charles Luhng. the Secretary
of the Lake Shore Railroad returned safe
and sound last Tuesday morning, from
New York, fully satisfied with the sue
cess of his visit.
He reports that the Lake Shore Rail
road is sure thing provided the neces-
sary aid is granted by the several towns
it is to pass through; and that sufficient
capital is already pledged for the iron
and rolling stock for the entire distance
from Milwaukee to Green Bay, if the
Lake Shore towns and Green Bay will
furnish the necessary means for securing
the lands and the right of way for that
enterprise. There cannot be the least
doubt entertained, that the required aid
will cheerfully be granted, for the pres
ent opportunity should not be delayed
agalnAon any account. Sheboygan, In
voting her aid of $685. 900 has done nobly;
Port Washington will follow the exam
pie on the 29th inst, and all the other
towns and cities will certainly not fail
to secure for themselves the great adj
vantages and facilities for intercourse
with the world, the want of which has
so long kept them in the back ground of
the rapid advancements of tie present
age.

FARMERS of Manitowoc county-do not
forget, while garnering your wealth from
fields and meadows, that good is done to
you, that you may do good in return. To
obtain such for your children, you, and
they, want more light in every branch of
knowledge, and as farmers, in the soil and
produce ofyour property for that pur-
pose sustain with all your ability the
proposed advance in your Agricultural
Society by becoming members of joint
stock company, for procuring a suitable
piece Of land for an Agricultural Fair
ground, where you may show the pro-
ducts of your own industry, see what
others have done and interchange your
views and experiences for the mutua.
benefit of all.
To that end go to one of your Town
officers and subscribe for as much stock as
your means will allow; and you will soon
find that never was money invested by
you to better advantage than by owning
a good interest in the Manitowoc Agri-
cultural Society and Stock Company.

ANOTHER EFFORT We are informed
that the NJ. & ~ r. r. Co. are about to
submit another proposition to the town
OF Saukyillc, i'll a short time perhaps next
week. If perseverance, persistency, hon
eyed words and liberal use of the con-
trolling influence can effect the desired
object, they certainly have a fair chance
OF success, but rumors are that the chan
ces against the proposition are worse
than before, however it is none of our
funeral and the good people of Sank
vile will have to decide for themselves
taking all the consequences on their own
shoulders for better or for worse in time
to come. -tShebougoas Times.

Our HARBoR inside, is improving rap
idly; both sides of it are now being wharv-
ed completely up to Sth ST., and the work
of dredging and widening the river
above that point is going on as fast as
our steam Dredge and two steam pile
drivers can accomplish it. On the outer
harbor there is no sign yet of the work
being continued, nor can we get any re-
liable information in regard to it; ali We
have to say now, is to wish that the new
contractor may do his duty as we'll and
simely as the late contractor has always
