The Eureka Steamer.

Our town is now being canvassed hy
an agent for Il new culinary article
called the Eureka steamer, for steam
in" food. This article has some i'm
proNements on any steamer which has
heretofore been shown our public. and
is simple. easily understood. and not
eXpensive-th prices being $500 and
S215. We believe it is admitted that
Steaming food is preferable to either
baking or boiling. in most cases. Some
advantages of the Eureka are. that no
steam or odor from the vegetables or
food being cooked enters the rooms.
but all passes of in the draft of the
stove. Onions or cabbage can he cooked
without any III the house knowing it
but the cook, or without seeming the
other food. Another improvement is
the ease with which water eau bc re-
pleni>hed without opening the steamer.
But to appreciate this article the ladies
must see it, which they will soon have
the opportunity of doing.

The P. & o. West.

We understand work has eptirel,
ceased on the T. &. O. Road betveen
johnson and Swanton. and that the
labOrers have all scattered. One reason
gwen Is. that because of the financial
dtprcsSlon, contractor Hogan could not
negotiate the bonds of the road. and 50
could not raise money to complete the
work Another report is that the Rail
i"ad Company could not fulfill then
contract with Hogan. and that he had
run out his own capital and then had to
stop. We discrcdit the report which
has gone abroad that the laborers have
been largely dcfrauded of their wages.
We understand that Hogan boarded his
employees, and as he kept store also.
the help generally got their other mtceS-
Saries of their employer, especially as
they could get no money. Besides, by
Il state law, the Railroad Company is
holden for the pay of the laborers. after
certain notice is given. and no notices
have as Yet been served upon the Com
pany.
However all this may prove. the fact
Is patent to all, that these are hard
times III which to build Il railroad. Ii |
Is il great enterprise, and it has been Il
hard-fought struggle from the first. 1t
Is nearly completed. A division en-
glnecr says that six weeks work will |
finish grading every rod of the road
from johnson to Swanton. The present
can only delay the work,
but it is now evident the road cannot
he completed for the summer travel.
