Right Point.
Campbell, Dennis & Company have
encountered a succession of bad luck
with their Mansfield contract. About
two weeks ago they placed "a second der
rick ut work to remove the dirt from the
steam shovel. and were making good
progress in digging out the canal, but
lew days ago Il vein of quick sand was
encountered. The sand came in so rap
idly that the shovel could not he oper-
ated and the work was entirely suspend
ell. What the contractors intended to
do could not be ascertaned by the writ
er when the works were visited on Thurs
day, as Mr.. Lee, the engineer, had gone
! To consult with his company. IL is 10
be hoped that they will find some way
OF overcoming the new trouble and that
they will be able TO complete the Job
without further difficulty.
For the past two weeks VIM. Russell
has been busy harvesting, and the results
OF this years farming have been very
satisfactory to him. Froma thirty-acre
patch he has garnered the following
crops; Thirty tons OF hay, five tons Of
millet, 800 bushels Of oats, twenty-five
bushels of wheat and ten bushels ofpeas.
In addition TO the above he will have
about 100 bushels OF potatoes and con-
siderable other garden truck. The
result shows that the returns from farm
ing in this region are big and better
paying business would he hard 10 find.
Ill you have ever seen n little child in
the agony OF summer complaint, you
can realize the danger of the trouble aud
appreciate the value OF instantaneous
relief always afforded by DeWitt's Collie
& Cholera cure. For dyscntery and
diarrhGa it is a reliable remedy We
could not afford TO recommend this as n
cure unless II were cure. j. G.. Wilkn-
son & CO.
John Cory, who has much 60 do in
the lumber business at Marinette, was in
town Tuesday. Mr.. Cory reports the
lumber business in Marinette and Me
nominee at n complete standstill. No
sales of Importance have been made this

has been used up and there is no more
room Tor piling the manufactured stock

put in this winter.
Chas. f.. Lawrence, superintendent OF
the Hemlock mine, Amasa, was in town
Wednesday and Thursday. He reports
everything moving along nicely at his

pile has been shipped so far tins season
and from $50 20 400 tons are being
shipped per day. The working force at
the mine continues about the same as il
has all summer.
The whole system is drained and
undermined by indolent ulcers and open
sores. DeWtt's Witch Hazel salve
speedily heals them. 1t il the best pile
cure known. j. G. Wilkinson 4 Co.
Adolph Justified and O. NJ. Brown

the car from the state fish hatchery and
secured iour cans OF German carp Try.
which they planted in one OF the numer.
GUS streams near town, and in about
four years our local fishermen can go
out and bring home mess OF the new
fish, II they are lucky.
Theories OF cure may bc discussed at
length by physicians, but the sufferer
wants quick relief; and One Minute
Cough cure will give il to them. A safe
cure FOR children. IL is "the only harm
less remedy that produces immediate
results. j. G. Wilkinson & Go.
