In Season.

The early settlers OF the west were
not men to yield tamely to injustice
or to be easily discouraged by obsta-
cles. An incident related in the Ills
tory of Macomb County," Michigan,
affords IA good illustration OF their
spirit. Jacob Crawford had located
in Ray township, and shortly after
ward land speculator appeared mt
his house and made no secret of his
intentions TO secure the very land To
which Mr.. Crawford thought he held
a prior claim.
First come, first served you
know, is the rule at the land office, I"
was the mans reply to Mr.. Craw-
ford's objection.
The stranger spent. the night at
Mr.. Crawiord's cabin. After he had
retired the pioneer said TO his wife,
1--WE got TO go to the land office at
Detroit md get ahead o. that Teller. /"
"You can't do it, his wife answer
ed despondently. "He'lI start in the
morning, an he's got smart pony,
an all you've got is your oxen"
"But I'll start ot-night: and I'll
beat him-on foot, too"
He set out at once. and made good
progress until, just south OF Mt.
Clemens, he sprained his ankle. But
he was not TO be conquered by such
an accident he cut two saplings
with his sheath knife. and using
these as crutches proceeded on his
way.
The next forenoon, when within
six miles of Detroit, near a tavern,
he heard n horseman coming. He
stepped aside and concealed himself
in the bushes until the horse and
rider, who proved TO be the land
Spectator, passed. To his satisfac-
ton he noticed the man ride up Co
the tavern and dismount from his
pony.
MIR. Crawford passed around the
house unnoticed and pushed rapidly
on TO Detroit. He reached the land
office, made his claim, paid over his
money, received his certificate and
was in the act OF leaving when the
Spectator entered.
You hereV' he demanded, in sur
prise.
yes, I'm here" the settler return
ed dryly. Its first come, first
served, you know, at the land Office,

The Woman of the Future.

In certain class of publications,
and from a certain class of writers,
we hear a great deal about 1.-The
Woman of the Future" What do we
really care about it, AS Sir Boyle
Roche said i'll one of his speeches,
"what has posterity done for US that
we should do anything for posterity!"
The woman of the present is the one
that interests us. and in fact is more
than average men can manage, to say
nothing of some future female. The
woman of the present has pretty clear
ideas of her own about most things,
and one of them is that when she
travels she always selects The Bur.

st. Louis, and all points east, south,

DIED.

BRADsHAw.-At Superior, Wis, August
Is, 1890, Peter L. Bradshaw, aged 62
years.
Mr. Bradshaw was born in Charles
town, Mass, in August, 1928, and was a
few days past his sixty-second birthday
when he died. He was educated as q
civil engineer in Charlestown and came
to st. Paul in 1855, and one of the gov
eminent engineers in charge of the mill
tary road employed him to lay out the
northern end of the road, which was to
run from Superior to St. Paul.
He first became an actual resident of
Superior in 1858, when he with his broth
er John W. Bradshaw of River Falls en-
gagged in the fur trade here, buying out
a dealer named Alexander Paul. They
followed the business for many years
until trade became too poor to be re-
munerative, when they sold out, and
Superior being then in the enjoyment of
one of its quiet seasons they located in
River Falls, where John w. has since
resided. In the early spring of 1882 Mr..
Bradshaw returned to Superior and
opened grocery house ON Second street,
which he kept open until about two years
ago when he sold out to engage in other
business. He was successful as real
estate Spectator, and at the time of his
death was a large stakeholder in the First
National bank of West Superior and vice
president of the Duluth x Superior Loan
and Debenture company and member
or its board of directors.
In August, 1887, while returning from a
visit to the Pacific coast, Mr.. Bradshaw
in getting into the cars at Spokane Falls
slipped and strained his back, but the
pain soon passed away and no more was
thought of it until about a year later
when his eyesight began to fail and a
general disability came over him. A
physician of st. Paul inquired if he had
not been so injured. Having forgotten
the accident he at first said no, but when
the doctor told him to think again he
remembered and explained the circum-
stances. This let the physician into the
secret of his disease, and for time he
seemed to get relief and hope of his final
recovery was INDUCED in. About a year
ago he got worse and with his wife trip
to Europe was made, but without the
desired results. and he came back home
soon to take his bed and patiently await
the end.-Saperior Times.
Mr. Bradshaw was resident of River
Falls from 1876 to 1882, being engaged in
the mercantile business. He was man
of intelligence and very straightforward.
He was married in Superior in 1865 to
Miss Sallie Syer, vino with six children
survives him.

Duluth, Red Wing 8 Southern r. r.


DuLuTu, MINI, Aug. 29.-The COM
pletion of the Duluth, Red Wing &
Southern railroad TO this city is assnr-
ed. The prime movers in the enter
prise are Mitchell & Mcclure, heavy
capitalists. who own large tracks of
timber in Wisconsin, forty miles from
here. Work on the first fifteen miles
of the north end of the road is to be
commenced within ten days. The
Mcclure Lumber company is to use
that part of the road to and through
its own property for logging purposes.
The company's own engines and cars
will run over the road, and it will be
allowed to connect with the main line
and all necessary branches and spur
tracks. The logging road will termi-
nate on the Wisconsin side of the riv.
er and the logs will be floated across to
West Duluth, where the mill is to be
located. The Duluth & Southern
road will enter Minnesota over a
bridge TO be built across the st. Louis
river, between Walbridge and New Du-
luth. From New Duluth the road will
enter Duluth over the tracks of the
Duluth Terminal and Transfer COM
pany. The entire road is to be com
pleted in 1892 A company was form.
in Sioux City last year called the
Sioux City & Northeastern. to build "A
line from the North lowan metropolis
to Duluth via 0watonna and Red
Wing. This company has only been
hindered in its construction by the
delay in building the Duluth & South
ern, but now that the latter company
is ready to go ahead and complete its
line work on the Northeastern will
probably begin. The visit of the
officials of the Duluth, Red Wing
& Southern to this city early this
week was in connection with the CON-
pletion of the road.
