put one Republican speaker in the
field-Charles A Towne. young
man, but very effective speaker.
From all sides come reports that he
made the most ofhis opportunity and
did effective work in the Gogebic re-
gion. Some day the old heads will
get to scrambling in convention and
the first thing they know Towne will
get the nomination. When he gets
into politics he will make name for
himself and do credit TO his constitu-
ency."

DR.. 7. H. Rae, who arrived here last week,
is very much pleased with the manner in
which the dredge works. 1t has been dem
onstrated that all the machinery for the plant
is just what is required and also that the
principal is the correct one for saving the
wealth in the river. No changes will be re,
quired in the placing of the machinery as it
has been we'll set up and works splendidly.
Several raises have been made and from "a
to tons of dirt were lifted at a raise. In
this sand quicksilver could be seen; also any
quantity Of sulphurets. Large boulders were
also sucked up, showing that the force is all
sufficient to raise anything that will go
through the I2-inch pipe. The only thing
now to experiment on is the manner of ar
ranging the sluices to save the quicksilver
and amalgam. This will, of course, take a
few days-probably week-and at the end
of that time it is believed that the dredge
will be working regularly. 1t is calculated
that when operations begin raise will be
made about every five minutes. This will
make the amount raised daily about 500 tons.
While the workmen ware all green reporter
was present when they were testing the vac
uum chamber, and upon timing them found
that they made 3 consecutive raises in II
minutes.

Last Sunday one Of our Dayton bachelors,
who has considerable Of an orchard engaged
pretty young widow and young lady to
gather his crop of plums and convert the
fruit into sauce for the table. The ladies
started operations in the afternoon and were
getting along nicely with their work until
the younger one discovered that there were
bee-hives standing under one of the trees Of
plums which they were about to gather.
Miss - here demonstrated against picking
the fruit from this tree and delegated her
companion to the task. Mrs. - was not
at all afraid of course, and succeeded in gath
ering all the plums from the tree except those
on the highest branches. These she could
not reach from the ground, so she climbed
upon the bee hive to reach them. The bees
in the hive took exception to thus being dis.
turbed and began to swarm out of the hive
by the dozen. A piercing shrek from the
frightened woman called the old widower
from the stable and he found Miss - near
" frightened to death and Mrs. - violent
ly shaking her skirts and frantically kick,
ing at everything that came in sight. AS
soon as the old widower comprehended the
situation he ran and procured handful
of mud, and returning begged to be allowed
to cover the stings with the clay, arguing rap.
idly and earnestly that the mud would take
out all the soreness from the stings-in fact
that it was the best known remedy for such
things. The already frightened woman
turned paler than ever at his proposition and
gathering her skirts close about her broke for
the gate, and was last seen skipping over the
ground like gazelle for home. How the
matter terminated we know not, but rumor
says that the mud was APPALLED, TO the things.
but not by the aforesaid widower, and that

She declares, however, that if she ever goes

such quantities she will wear set Of buck
