A Good Bend Required.

The New Wisconsin Railroad Compa-
ny got through the Secretary,s otiice In
good shape. The papers were all right,
we believe, and the committee appoint
ed visited the Governor 5 Office TO in
quirc what securities were needed.
Governor washburn took from his
drawer bond drawn up by the Attorney
General, to be used in case the Nilwau-
kee & st. Paul Company took the grant.
It provides that che road shall he built
precisely accordin. to law, and for each
mile not built within the time limited
the Company is bound to pay the state
five thousand dollars.
This forfeiture applies only to the main
line sixty miles Of which were to be
built this year. Tie bond was not
signed, as the matter assumed bust
nass-like, not to say serious aspect, at
this point. It is something Of an I'M
icrtaking for new company to at
tempt, at this time of the year, to
buili sixty miles of road in 1873.
The matter is under adyisemeat, and
we believe the prospect Is not conald
cred very hopeful. .Sta'c Journal.

4 Winter Sn0at.-perhaDs

4 Water S,poat.-Perhaps few of
our citizens know how near we came to
q calamity just below the mouth Of the
Fox river on the morning of the 4th,
far surprising in its horrors the one
that occurred on Green Lake, in this
State. On the morning Of the 4th a
party of about 70 persons consisting
ofthe family Of Cap, GAYLORD. Messrs.
SPENCER Il EIGrNE. Of this city, and
George Wright Of Fort Howard, ana
their families, two little lie Clair girls
and May Thomas, Of this city, and the
Rev. Mr.. Sampson, Of Fort Howard,
left here on l.. Van Dycke's steam
yacht Juiius for sail on the bay.
The weather had been threatening all
the morning, and the party deemed it
best to make for Coles dock, Bay
Settlement, for shelter. When about
mile from the dock and about the
same distance from the Bay Settlement
dock, at about 10 \. NJ, they were
struck by tremendous squat from the
west, and put about, standing into the
face Of the gale for safety. At about
the same time they observed a water
spout about three fourths of a mile to
the westward and apparently bearing
right down upon them. 1t seemed to
ha' started a mile or so north Of the
cut. It was in the form Of funnel,
the small end sweeping along the sur
face of the water, whirling rapidly,
and at the point of contact flashing the
water into foam as white as the drift
ing snow, while the principal mass was
black. The stem of it seemed but a
few feet in diameter, spreading out to
large diminsions at the top, and the
whole appeared to be 800 or 400 feet
high. just before reaching the ter
ror-stricken crew in the boat, the stem
seemed to separate from the water be-
low and the mass passed towards the
east some 400 or 500 feet from the
boat, wetting the passengers with the
spray as it passed 1t was a narrow
escape for the whole party from sud-
den and fearful death.

On Tuesday Thomas A. Layman, and Owen

Corner, during which Layman seized an axe and

came 70 this city the next day, appeared before
Esquire Frazer, and had warrant issued for Law
mans arrest, on q charge of assault and battery
The warrant was given to Constable John Ward,
who started out to look for his man.
But meanwhile, Layman was not Idle but,
went before Esquire Vandever, at New Castle,
and had warrant issuad for Che arrest of Tom
lnsou, on the charge Of assaulting him with bar
OF iron. In the evening, when TOmlinson re-
turned home. he was arrested on this warrant,

In default Of bail, he was committed to iail

or ut least not until Tonlinson Is released from

NEwPoRT.-This town Is improving more rap
idly the present season than 1t has done for many
years back. This may be attributed in q great
measure to the erection of large rolling mill by
Messrs. Marshall q Richardson. Its operation
wall require quite q number of hands and they
will need houses to live In. To meet this want,
Charles GrOome has erected four neat frame
dwellings, near the post office. Marshall John.
son has also erected two frame houses, and John
A. CFanston is now engaged in putting up four
snug cottages near the rolling mill. He Is also
erecting brick house In tho vicinity. Work.
men are now engaged In putting the machinery
In the rolling mill, and Simon Ny eFs Is kept busy
in getting everything in its proper place. The
mill Will be ready for operation some time in
september. IL will certainly prove q great I'D.
vantage TO the town and will no doubt lead TO
the erection Of other establishments, land being
comparatively cheap, facilities for shipment good
and every convenience that may be desired for
business. There are in the town three or four
stores, two or three smith and wheelWTight shops.
shoe makers, lumber and coal yard, &C., and also
good Bank to furnish the money REQUIRED 10

PROGRESS OF THE WORK.--THE PUMP AND

Il
ENGINE IN POSITION.
In view Of the many other recent building
improvements, the new city mill, on the Bran
dyWlne, has been almost forgotten by all ex-
cept those directly concerned In its erection.
Work on this Improvement, however, isprO-
crossing very satisfactorily, though necessari-
| ly very slowly, on account of the cumbersome
character Of the work now being done. The
building, externally, is almost completed, and
the carpenters are now busily ut work finish
| ing up the interior. The old chimney IN front
| Of the building still remains, and cannot be
torn down until the new boilers and furnaces
are In use as 1t still acts as fiue for the fur
mace under the boiler which works the present
engine. This chimney interferes with the
cOrnice and stating on one Of the front prOjec-
tl0ns Of the roof, which cannot be entirely fin
ished, until everything else is completed, and
the chimney torn down.
| The interior of the building presents busy
aspect. Besides the carpenters, who are get
ting through with their work as rapidly as pos
sible, the machinists are busy putting into
working order the large new WOrthinRton
pump and engine This pump and engine Is
city. Its capacity is very great, and it will
doubtless be able TO keep the. city supplied
with all the water necessary, in the dryest
season for years TO come.
= In the "pit,"a large force Of men, are en-
gagged in laying the large thirty-inch mains,
which extend out into the middle Of the creek
This work is almost done. The mains are
laid from the building, as far out into the wa
ter as they extend. and In few days, will be
connected with the engine, ana the mains, as
they are laid, after being securely Joined to-
gether, are pushed firmly into position in their
rocky bed, and then eemented tightly.
Capt Gallagher, Chief Engineer Of the Wa
ter Department gives the work of improve
ment his personal Inspection. He directs par.
ticular attention to the laying of the water
mains, and spends several hours each day in
the pit" directing the operations of the men
engaged Ia this work. He takes great pride
in the Improvements, and under his careful
supervisiOns the people may rest assured that
the work will be done in the best possible
manner. -atE s
