Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1895-06-06

With this issue we begin our sixth
year with the REVIEW, besides over
three years with the indicator. In
that time there has been great chan
ges in this village. When we first
came here it was a very unpromising
field for q newspaper. The village
was only small cluster of buildings,
a team could hardly get through the
principal streets for stumps and logs.
There was no church and the only
school house was a shanty. Now we
have thriving village, with three
churches, one OF the finest school
houses in the state. good stores, neat
and comfortable dwelling houses and
q good prospect for the future. Dur
ing the eight years and over we have
done what we could to make Eagle
River known and in the future as in
the past we will always he found work
| ing far the town and county. In the
past the people have appreciated our
efforts and have given US in return IL
good liberal patronage for which we
thank them and hope to continue to de-
serve their good will. The REVIEW
has and always will keep pace with
the growth of the town and we hope.
in the future rs in the past, to keep it
the leading paper of the county.

The suggestion by our correspon-
dent is good one and should be car
ried out. We have none to much
time tO make the necessary arrange
ments. We understand that the
ChOate ball team is anxious to play
here tho Fourth and would run an ex-
cursion down If some inducements
were given. This would mean much
to the townand steps should be taken
at once to secure them. Our expe-
rience Decoration Day shows that we
can get up q good celebration if we
only GO at it in the right manner.
We would suggest that the ladies be
interested in the matter and that a
committee of them be appointed to do
the soliciting.

A STORM OF SHELLS.
Commander McGimn Tells of tho
Famous Battle of the Yalu.

From this time, regret to say, the
Chinese formation was broken into an
Irregular group. Bearing down on the
one hand We're the ships of the Prin-
cipal Squadron, "in line ahead,' keep
ing perfect station, while on the oppo-
site side We're those Of the Flying
Squadron. We were thus between two
fires. AS the Principal Squadron turn
ed and altered course, the two Chinese
ironclads also, keeping bows on to
their van, the Chen Yuen preserving
her station and distance from the flag
ship, as indeed she continued to do
throughout the battle. The Japanese
willingly bear witness that the two
ironclads preserved their formation,
and that the Chen Yuen by her move
ments and gun practice covered the
Ting Yuen when in straits, and in fact
prevented the feet from suffering an
nihilation instead Of it's actual heavy
loss.
The Principal Squadron now seemed
to ignore the four smaller Chinese
vessels, and its five ships steamed
around our two ironclads, pouring in
q storm of shell. Time and again fires
broke out, but with one notable ex-
ception, the flames were subdued With
out much trouble. Some of the ene-
my's ships used melinite shells, the
noxious fumes from which could at
once be distinguished from those of
powder. One ship, for time, prac-

courte.z howard Women.


The international convention re-
Gently held in London of women in
terested in the temperance work was
a notable demonstration of the deep
ening and widening interest which
women are taking in all reformatory
movements. Probably there has new
YER been assembled in Great Britain
gathering SO truly representative Of
the Christian and philanthropic senti-
ment of the enlightened women Of
the world as this, in which $50 Amer
lean delegates actively participated.
One Of the striking incidents of the
convention was that, on the opening
Sunday, 200 London pulpits were oc-
cupied by womeE. But. notable as
the gathering was, the London press
seems to have given it little consider
alton, and the notice bestowed upon
1t was in some cases q great deal
more insulting than cOmmendable in
character. One conservative journal
characterized the convention as COM
posed Of ''blatant female agitators, to
whom taste and propriety are empty
terms" When the Christian Endeay-
orers swarmed down upon this me-
tropolis by the ten thousand, some
two or three years ago. the daily
newspapers were as much surprised
and puzzled by the demonstration az
the London journals seem to have
been by the women's white ribbon
gathering; but New York Journalism,
instead Of criticising and bslittling
welcomed and devoted itself to set
ting forth copiously the achievements
of the visiting OF olganizations, thereby
not only maintaining its seIf-respect.

Business woman's Dress.

The business woman cannot afford
to disregard the conventionalities Of
dress. She is wisest and most far
seeing who follows in the wake Of the
present day fashions, evoiding exag-
gerations or .absurdities. Men have
small patience with the woman who
departs from the conventional dress
standards, nor have they much ad-
miration for that other woman who
holds all matters of dress In con-
tempt and regards her clothes as a
question Of covering only. The wo-
man whose dress is neat, stylish, be-
coming and suitable to the time and
place is the woman with whom they
like best to deal. They do not want
diamond earrings to fash in their
ears. when debating to their stenog-
rapher, but they resent it as IN af-
front to themselves IL her dress Is
soiled, antiQuated in pattern, ill-flt-

may not be essential to success, but
they are more or less an index to
