The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1882-01-14


H. W. Holley, the Omaha CON
tractor, made a short visit to st. Paul
the past week, but hastened back TO
superior for a square meal and a
comfortable sleep. Mr. II. knows a
good thing when he strikes it, and he
has not even been home for q month
or more.
We omitted last week to men
ton the death Of Mrs. Louis Roy,
which occurred Dee 9th, after n
long period of suffering from consu1np-
ton. The deceased was the eldest
daughter of Mr.. L. Gouge, and leaves
a large circle of relatives and friends
who sincerely mourn her early death.
The sub-contractors Oh the
Omaha road are finishing up the jobs
rapidly, and the fifteen miles out from
Superior will soon be all ready for the
iron. The mild, pleasant weather has
been a good thing for the graders and
has enabled them to do the work
which the rains of last fall prevented.
It's an Ill wind that blows nobody
good.
j. ". Murphy has something to
say to the people of Superior
In a nice New Advertisement in to-
days paper. Mr.. Murphy carries
good line Of goods, and sells at bottom
prices for cash. He delivers, free of
charge, goods to any part Of the city,
which is quite an item 10 buyers. Cali
and see him, nest door east of Mr..
Deans hardware store
Jake Leidel is the happiest and
the Gvelicst livery man we ever
knew. We noticed in oqrzlast issue
that he had broken ground for 40
foot addition to his barn, and now
the frame is mp, sided and rooted in
weeks time. He has twentv-eight
horses in the barn now, and the addi-
ton is to make room for more See
his card in the TINES to-day, and
give him a call when you want good
team.
Mr. Monroe Horter, of this city,
a young man Of sterling qualities and
business capacity, and who had Just
erected store for business at Yer
million, died at the residence Of his
father, Jne of our merchants and pro-
minent citizenn, Last Friday, aged 27
years. He caught cold about three
weeks previous, which going to his
lungs caused his death. He was
buried from the Presbyterian church
last Sunday.
The TINES is under obligations
to Hon A. J. Turner, State Railroad
Commissioner, for copy Of very
fine map showing the railroad system
of the State. The map is a new one
gotten up more expressly for the CON
venience of the Commissioner to aid
him in his office work, and shows ev-
cry line of road in operation, in course
of construction, and projected or sur
veyed, up to January 1st, 1882. We
will not " harrer" the feelings of our
neighbors by allnding to Superior in
this connection-the map itself does
that. Just look and see for yourself,
and if you have no map, call at the
TINES office and look at ours.
