The South Shore & Atlantic.

The surveying parties which have
been at cork for the S. S. q A. COM
pany in the east end of the village,
appear to have completed their "close
preliminary survey" as it has been
called, and have gone back to Pike
Lake, probably to review their work.
Their line, which is said to be good
one, terminates at the head of Rail
road avenue, in East Superior, where
it is connected with the line located
by the Air Line company some years
ago along Railroad avenue to the
mouth of the Nemadji. The location
is perhaps significant.

We haze frequently in the past
few years, called the attention Of farm
ers and others to the fact that there
was big money in gardening, small
fruit growing poultry raising, etc,
and vet none OF these pursuits is fol-
lowed in this vicinity rs q business.
We want to give you few figures on
poultry. Mr. f. 7. Iihbits, of Brule
Was in town the other day and gave
us this item. He works for Mr. Thos
Doherty, and last fall he took the
poultry department into his own con-
troll. He had 80 hens and he built
them q good warm house t. live in,
and took good care of them generally.
As result they laid regularly and took
to setting naturally enough, even if
the storms did howl without, and as q
result the first brood of chicks came
out on the 18th day of January, get
ting 9 chicks from / eggs, and up TO
last week he bad SO young chick,
some of them about fit for table. Last
Saturday the 18th a hen came off the
nest with a brood of ducks, which is
a remarkably carly date for them.
Besides this increase he has sold eggs
to the value of $4,000. No extra
time has been given their care by Mr..
Tibbitts, who did his regular days
work in the woods, and only tended
his feathered pets morning and even
ing, and the results are most crafty
ing, and clearly demonstrates that
raising poultry may be made profit
able business in Douglas County.

They Wantlo Hold Over.

SUPERIOR, Wis, March q, 1888.
Mr.. EDITOR:
At the meeting Of the Village Coun-
ell last night the Village Attorney
suggested that the law could be SO
construed as to enable all the village
officers to hold over for another year.
This would be especially desirable to
the appointive offices holding under
the present board whose salaries may
stop under new regime. 1t means
So mcnth to the attorney aforesaid
for doing nothing.
The present council was elected to
serve until May. 1t was we'll under
stood at that time and since that a
regular election would then be held.
They may be able to get their
photographs published as leading cit
liens for ten dollars head, but when
it comes TO overriding the will of the
people they may find themselves in
the rear.
OF course this will be called an
East End Howl" but the tax payers
of the West End are beginning to
find out that the conservatism of the
East End may be needed to control
some of the political adventures who
haye swooped down on us within the
past year. The law expressly says
that the regular village election must
be held annually in May and the peo-
pie shall see that one is so held.

Duluth has just voted to impose
upon herself the additional burden in
the way OF road and bridge bonds to
the amount of $4,000. 1t is much
easier to get into debt than it is to
get out--unless she repeats the old
dose-repudiates totally, or settle at
. cents on the dollar.

Shall Superior hare a HotsiS
To the Editor Of the Times:

To the Editor Of the Times:
Permit me to explain to your read
ers my VIEWS as to the proposal of
Messrs. Catlin & Butler to build and
operate a first class hotel in Superior
They propose to expend $4,000 on
the house and to maintain 1t In best
style for three years, giving bonds for
faithful fulfilment of their agreement,
on condition that others interested In
the welfare OF the town reduce their
risk in the enterprise by donating
sl2, 800 in cash or village property
Some persons with whom | have
talked about the project have said too
large bonus was asked; but | haye
yet to meet one of the directors who
would give the bond offered by g. & b.
for twice the bonus they ask. 1t is
also to be considered that hotel keep
ing is not the business Of these gentle
men; they must be credited with pub
lie spirit and consideration of the
great need there is first class hotel.
They take upon themselves what may
prove to be heavy burden, and the
bonus they ask does not wholly re-
moye their risk of loss. If by good
management, and with good fortune
the enterprise proves to be a profit
able one, we OF Superior coald we'll
afford to congratulate them Gu their
success aud say they deserved it. lit
pays them it will pay every business
nun and property owner who contrl-
butes to the bonus.
That they are public spirited in
the matter is proved by their standing
offer to surrender the project to any
one who will do rs much, and as
quichly for Il less bonus.
| believe that no new town in the
West has obtained proper hotel ac-
combinations, without liberal con-
tributlons by its business men. st.
Paul and Minneapolis have each given
very large donations to hotel builders.
The Ryan cost the business men and
property owners of st. Paul $3.50 900
Superior cannot hope to grow if it Is
Sc fish, stingy and without enterprise.
1t will remain Il dead old town us long
as considerable proportion Of our
people are content to wait for some
body else to revive the town and
build it up. We must unite and
work together for promotion of the
common Interests Tor Development
ot the natural advantages which to-
long have been an excuse for doing
nothing by ourselves and for ourselves.
In this hote! liter il is imperative
chat the residents OF the town should
do all they can. The non resilient
owners, many OF them, have been very
liberal i'll times past. Some of them
now have a considerable part of their
property pledged TO larger enter
prise. Some who have given freely
for building up the town, have seen
their large gifts expended without
good results. They will wait now for
residents 10 show their faith by their
works. | say il would be best FOR
/ the town il we should at home raise
all the bonu, asked by Mes.rs. Catlin
/ & Butler. Then We could hopefully
appeal to the nonresident owners for
! the help we Will need FOR other means
OF htui,iiag up the tosn. We want
manufactures here which viii give
steady employmen; to skilled labor
| anl pronlte la. trade OF the town
AM tha comm,rce of the port. |

The Fate of the Apostles.

1t is generally believed that all the
apostles suffered martyrdom. This belief
is founded on fact in respect to most of
them, and on tradition in others, as fol-
lows:
St. Matthew suffered martyrdom by be-
ing slain with sword at distant city of
Ethiopia.
st. Mark expired at Alexandria after
having been cruelty dragged through the
streets of that city.
St. Luke was hanged upon an olive tree
in the classic land of Greece.
st. John was put in a cauldron of boil
ing oil, but escaped death in miraculous
manner, and was afterward banished to
Patmos.
st. Peter was crucifed at Rome with his
head down.
St. James the Greater was beheaded at
Jerusalem.
st. James the Less was thrown from a
lofty pinnacle of the temple, and then
beaten to death with a fuller's club.
st. Bartholomew was fayed alive
st. Andrew was bound to cross, whence
he preached to his prosecutors until he
died.
st. Thomas was run through the body
with lance at Coromanded, in the East
Indies.
St. Jude was shot to death with arrows
St. Matthias was first stoned and then
beheaded.
St. Barnabas of the Gentiles was stoned
to death by the Jews at Salonica.
St. Paul, after various fortunes and per-
secutions, was at length beheaded at Rome
by the Emperor Nero.

A Charming Widow,

Husband and wife had little tiff He
buried his nose in a morning paper, while
she gazed out of the car-window with per-
sistent intentness. Thus an hour and
thirty minutes passed. A lady entered the
car. Husband dropped his paper and
gazed at her admiringly.
"Ah," said he, "that's fine woman.
And widow, too. Don't you think she's
handsome ?"
Eyes, rather. You seem to like wild
ows,"
'sIndeed l do. They're just charming
Husband evidently thought this would
pique his partner. But it didn't.
ALFRED" said she tenderly, placing her
hand softly on his arm. "Alfred / guess
| was in the wrong a little while ago,
when | became angry at you, and Pm
sorry, so sorry. Will you forgive your
little wifey"
Certainly. Don't say another word
about it."
"And you will grant little request l
have to make OF you, hubby, dear ?"
''of course. Anything that lies in my
power"
'You say you think widows are charm
ing p

"Then make me one; that's good hus-

Busting" a Barber Monopoly.

Drifting from the Judiciary to Governors,
my Congressional friend told how Governor
"Dick" 0glesby busted" monopoly. In
his sight a barber monopoly is as odious
as big railroad corporation pool. When
he was in the Senate Oglesby was one of
the best story tellers there, and the story
Of his experience won't lose anything if
given in his own language, though at sec
ond hand. 1t was in the bonanza days of
Leadville when the stranger within its
gates paid for what they got. 81 had a
little hole in the ground out there" Gov
ernor Oglesby tells his friends, land went
to see when l was going to get dividends.
| wanted a shave, and | went to the only
barber in the place 1t was the toughest
shave | ever got, and Pm blessed if the
robber didn't ask for four bits when l
offered him quarter. Now, when you're
on the borders of civilization mebbe two
bits isn't too much for shave, but half
dollar when you've just stood another as
sessment ON your mining stock is too much.
| swore, and said the next time Pd go
somewhere else. But the robber only
coughed and told me to try in on.
"Sure enough there wasn't another bar
Der in the town. There had been one but
he had struck lead and was able to buy
all the tonsorial establishments in the
country. However, pretty soon one came
along. He didn't have much to begin
with, but l told him to start and I'd get
him some customers, then / stood out in
front of the others shop and told every
man who came along what robbers den
it was. Some of them only laughed, but
others went to my man and saved two bits.
The monopolist tried to raise row, l
wouldn't be blufed, and less than week
he'd come down to twenty-five cents. Then
my man put the price at fifteen cents and
before left that was the regular price in
Leadville, and you could get shave for
less than it cost to take a drink" Cor
respondent New York Tribune.

Time is working many changes, not alone
in people, but in their ways and methods
of living. Up to the present time the peo-
pie of California have, as rule, been very
extravagant and wasteful. Few if any of
the economical devices of our boyhood
days are in existence in this State But
little thought has been given to saving in
the true sense of that term; everything
and everybody has been going with a rush.
Providence has been very kind to us, our
land very productive, our crops bountiful,
and our State and our people have pros
pered. Time is slowly working change !;
large additions are being made to our pop
ulation; California methods are being put
to one side, and economical ones being
adopted in their stead But little if any
attention has been given in the past to
fertilizing our soil. A few conservative,
experimental growers have given this mat
ter some thought, knowing that in time
nature would require assistance in order
that our orchards and vineyards
might continue their productiveness.
How. many California farmers have
a regularly constructed ash-bin, in which
to store wood ashes? How many save
their ashes and make use Of them by dis
tributing them over their land We re-
member quite distinctly the large, wooden.
tin-lined, covered ash-bin of our youthful
days, in which were carefully sIored the
ashes. That portion not used upon the
corn and garden patch was sold by the
bushel to the ash-man. In those days the
