MARRIED July 29th, 1882, at the resi-
dence of the brides parents in the town
of Manitowoc, by G. W. White, Justice
of the Peace, Matthias Christensen and
Miss Kredericke Krach.
Mr.. Christensen, our well known City
Baker, has shown by his choise of help
mate. the same wisdom evidenced in his
business transactions. His bride is the
only daughter of our esteemed citizen.
Mr.. Krach, floral gardner and farmer.
She is lady in every sense of the word,
and to her other lady-like qualities, adds
that of thorough house wife, qualif-
cation which is often lacking. The we'd
ding was a pleasant event to the many
friends of the couple. After the cere-
mony, the many guests gathered around
the table loaded with all the Injuries of
the season and enjoyed rare feast. The
side board was also we'll supplied with
that which maketh the heart glad. Among
other presents presented to the bride was
roll containing twenty golden eagles,
presented by her father and mother
That the newly welded pair may enjoy all
the happiness they anticipate is the ear
nest wish of their many friends. ~
The Chippewa Herald says "the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul company
has finally decided upon the construction
of line north from Merrill, with view
of heading off theMilwaukee, Lake Shore
and Western company, whose extension
to the Wisconsin River rapids is now in
process of construction. Surveyors are
to be sent north at once, and the line
is to be located in northerly and slightly
northeaeterly direction, to point near
Pelican Rapids. From thence the sur
vey will be continued directly north to
the State line, and thence to point in
Ontonagon county. Mich. Both the
Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western,
and the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
roads will compete for the rich mining
products of Ontonagon county, and will
develop territory which until now has
been comparatively unknown, owing to
the fact that its resources we're inaccess--
lbie. The work on the st. Paul extern
sion will probably not be begin until
next year. Pelican Rapids, on this route
will undoubtedly become one OF the lead
ing numbering points in the west"

by printed hand bills which were posted

THERE is a prevalent but mistaken
notion that lawyers, as a rule, advice
every one who comes to them for advise
to involve himself in litigation. The
lawyers who pursue this course are ex-
ceptions to the general class. Lawyers,
as rule, advise more persons not to liti-
gate, than they do to litigate. A compe-
tent attorney who is honest and tends
strictly to business can almost always get
all the work he can well attend to and
that of legitimate nature. Two lawyers
in this city spent whole day of this
week in endeavoring to settle suit which
bad already been commenced, and finally
succeeded. Both parties were anxious
to test their strength, irrespective of costs.
If all attorneys should pursue a like
course, the dignity of the profession
would be greatly elevated.
