MARQUETTE, Mich, March %
1t may be of interest TO your read
ers 10 have some items about the
upper PENINSULA of Michigan. As
is we'll known, the principal indus
tries of this section are numbering,
copper and iron mining. Mar
quette county is in the iron ore
region. The magnitude of this
industry is partially understood
when we know that the annual out
put of the iron mines is, in round
numbers. five million tons-valued,
exclusive of transportation, at nj
teen to twenty million dollars.
Ishpeniine-an Indian word
meaning heavens a town which
has grown from a burg Of Il dozen
houses to a city of 10000 inhabi-
tants within twenty years.
The six mines in this town yield
annually about 700,U 600 tons OF iron
Ore. An annual income OF S2,OOU,-
600 from Il single industry makes a
town boom for sure. | visited
Champion to-day. This mine pays
its owners about $780, 600 annually
and the original investment was
somewhere about S5O0,0OO. This
company spends the entire rent
receipts from its dwelling houses
in improvements and repairs. II
| has built for the accommodation OF
its employees at an expense OF slo,-
600, a public hall and reading
room. The latter is supplied with
the standard periodicals, weekly
and daily papers, including many
foreign publications. The Champion
compressor-a machine for furn-
ishing air to the miners is the
largest in the upper peninsular,
the engines being 900 horse
power, and kept in so neat a con
dition that a lady in full dress
might go through the engine room
without soiling her draperies.

of the upper peninsular. 1t has
10, 900 inhabitants and is the bust
ness and social center. One ma,

are over twenty private residences
which cost from S25.0 900 to s10O,0Ot

They say it is a splendid place tC

nothing dishonest was found, the
situation is thought TO be decidedly
prejudiced to the welfare of the in
stitution that the designations of

called for. There is little in the
