The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1883-11-08


Mr.. AND Mrs. r. W Cole left this
week for their new home near Lake Mills
in this state. Mr.. Cole has been one OF
the pillars of public schools in Gibson
and for this reason alone, if others were
wanting his departure is to be regretted.
The Pilot wishes them prosperity in
their new home.
BUENos AYREs is to have an umbrella
Gas is an umbrella" Two German
engineers propose to build large one
to cover the whole city, the cost to be
something over $4,000 No chance
for an editor to own such one, and so
he must persist in his habit of picking
one up occasionally.
SUPT. J. T. LUNN of Sank County,
one of the ablest and most experienced
superintendent in the state, requires
the teachers of that county to report the
number of days taught by them "when
up after preceding midnight. i" 1t is a
question full of suggestiveness and one
which district boards should be ever
prompt to ask.
A NEWSPAPER, local newspaper even,
reaches many distant states and foreign
countries. The Pilot has one or more
subscribers in almost every state in the
union, and in over half the territories.
1t reaches France, England, Germany
and South America. The postage TO
South Ameraca amounts to more than
the subscription price of the paper. A
newspaper is great traveller.
New JERSEY WINE SENT TO EUROPE. -
Mr.. Speer, of New Jersey, has reputa-
ton extending over the whole Union and
in Europe as being reliable producer
of pure wines. His Port Grape Wine is
ordered by families in Dresden, London
and Paris for its superior medicinal
virtues, and its blood making quality,
owing to the iron contained in the soil
in which the vines grow. For sale by
Oscar A. Alter.
SEVERAL new lots of Russian Circulars,
Surtouts and Dolmans arrived this week,
with more On the way. We have been
having no little trouble to get the cloaks
we wanted as fast as they were sold, but
now they are coming in reasonably fast,
and we hope to be able to accommodate
every customer who may want these par
ticular styles of garments, which, by the
way, we have not been able to match
elsewhere, either for general makeup
or for prices. j. SCHUETTE & Bros.
LIEUTENANT SLAMM of the Andy john
son gives quite an interesting description
of what is known as the coil spot" in the
Gulf of Mexico. This is section of the
gulf about mile in length and three
fourths of mile wide. When storm
is raging and the sea dashed into fury,
this section is calm, and the waves break
on its confines. This is said to be due
to the oil which comes from the bottom.
In storm its color becomes quite mark
ed, also.
GERTIE FULLER, the girl who married
Dubois, said to be woman in mans
clothes, left Chiffon for her home in
Waupun on Sunday. Dubois the man
woman trudged off by himself after
being deserted by the girl he (she) had
married. The girl now insists that the
person she married is man although
both herself and "the thing" as the
girls mother calls the husband" assert
ed on former occasion that the husband
was woman.

glove on Eighth street on Monday will
make himself known, o chap in this
Office will learn of something to his (the
chap's) advantage. If the finder is a
man who fears the lord, and thus has a
grip on the beginning of wisdom, he

thanks or reward of any kind farther
