The Great Northern railroad company
will give the public an opportunity dur.
ing the coming summer to demonstrate
whether first class steamboat is a rea

Northwest, which was launched at Cleve
land the other day, will be the larges
and finest boat on the lakes. 1t is, il
fact, more like an Atlantic liner than :
lake boat, and combines the best point
Of both styles Of craft. Regular tri .,
will be made between Duluth and Bufa
10, at speed Of twenty miles an hour
| A second boat called the North1and vii
be ready for service N Ju1y, and if tn
two secure enough business to warran
the investment other ships will be con
structed until daily line is in operation
The time will be little longer h
competing railroad routes, but Manage
Hill believes the attractions Of a lax
voyage will more than counteract tn
disadvantage of few extra hours on til
journey.-Journal.
