er Geo. P. Hambrecht and wife were
guests at banquet and card party Sat
urday evening given by Mr.. and Mrs.

dence on Court House street. Supper
was delicious and the football eleven
lined up at the table with its old-time
vigor. The result was another victory
for the champions of Northern Wis

thing that came before them, but they
pleaded with your reporter SO earnestly
that we were induced to decide that the
score is not for pu blication.
House decorations in scarlet and

pretty and tastily arranged. A delight
full evening was spent by the doughty

Public Land i'm Alaska.

Secretary Alger has issued regulations
governing the use and occupation of
lands within the limit Of the military
reservation of st. Michael. Alaska.
Applications for permission to con-
duct legitimate business enterprises must
be accompanied by testimonials OF good
character and standing, reciting the nat
ure of the business to be conducted, the
location on unoccupied land within the
reservation, the area of land necessary,
number and character of buildings, &c,
to be erected, and probable date when
occupancy is to be commenced and
terminated Those located OH this re-
servation at the time the reservation
was made will in like manner present
their application for permits.
Occupants under these permits will
be subject at ali times to such police reg
ulations as may be imposed by the COM
manding officer of Fort st. Michael or
higher authority. No retailing of dis
titled spirits on the reservation will be
allowed, bnt this prohibition shall not
include light wines or beer. Provision
is made for reserving sufficient lands
for the post at ST. Michael and for the
modification and termination of permits.

Conditions of Trade.

The monthly report of failures, made
only by R. G.. Dun & Co., shows default
ed liabilities of $11 ,610,1 ,195 in November
against S12, ZOO, $50 last year. Because
of three large failures for $3,250, 900, not
due to present conditions, the aggregate
in November was only S1,100,000 less
than last year, and except for these
would have been smaller than in Aug
ust, September or October. The de-
crease in nearly all branches of business
shows that payments have been remark
ably good and defaults unusually small.
Other evidences of the state of business
are convincing, except in speculative
lines Wages have been voluntarily ad
vanced for nearly 10000 workers in
woolens and iron. Stocks are some
what stronger, having advanced 81 Al
for railways and $1.57 for trusts. The
true value of American railway stocks
is steady rising with earnings, which
for November thus far are 209 per cent.
larger than last year, and 81 per cent.
in the same weeks of 1892.

Consolidated Water Power Co.

Everything points to tthe fact that the
owners of the several mills and water
powers on the Wisconsin river at this
point will make another attempt at
consolidation of their interests We
sincerely hope nothing will come up to
prevent the successful combination
Mr.. Orbison, of the firm of O'Keefe &
Orbison, of Appleton, was here recently
in the interest of this consolidation and
it is probable that the scheme will &c
through next year, and if it does, it will
require the building of the biggest dam
in the state of Wisconsin. This dam
will be 1900 feet long and will be supple
mented with number of wing dams,
making the total length considerably in
excess of 1900 feet. This means a great
deal for the twin cities of Grand Rapids
and CentralIa. Let every one interest
ed-and we are all interested-do what
we can to further the consolidation.

DR.. Witt Leaves for the Pacific
Slope.

Our social relations with Doctor Wit
ter have not been of such an intimate
character as to lead the reader to ex-
pect any but passing notice of his de-
parture Tuesday evening from our
midst, but We would not l.e doing JUS
tice to this community or our paper if
we neglected to give proper recognition
of the merits of any good citizen who
has been actively identified with all
local interests for so many years.
DR.. G. F. Witter came to Grand Rap
ids in 1852 since which time he has
been closely related with the material
advancement of both his chosen city
and county. He entered into the prac-
tice of medicine with much zeal and
success from the first, which gave him
quite prominence and he was put for
tional work He was president of the
Board of Education for ten consecutive
years and no small mead of praise is
due him for his active and persistent
efforts in helping to establish and main
tain the Howe High school at time
when public sentiment was widely diff
fercnt than today. The county, too,
recognized his ability by electing him
as her first county superintendent of
schools, to which position he was re-
elected four consecutive terms, a fact
which of itself speaks more worthily of
the estimation in which he was held by
the old citizens of the county than we
can write.
Nor was his medical ability unrecog-
nized by the generallgovernment for in
1862 he received a commission as Ex-
amining Surgeon of Pensions for Wood
county, which he held several years to
the delight of many an old soldier.
Later he was appointed as surgeon to
the 18th Regiment, then at Helena,
Arkansas, which position he resigned.
He was appointed and remained mem
Der of the State Board of Health for
fifteen years and his able articles con-
tributed to the State Board during that
time will be read and re-read by
grateful people for many years to come.
He helped organize and was elected the
first president of the Northwestern
Wisconsin Medical society, and later
was honored with the desirable office
of president of the State Medical society
of Wisconsin.
AS mayor Of his city, as chairman of
the board of supervisors, as postmaster,
together with other positions of trust
in which he was placed, DR.. Witter dis
charged all duties with fidelity and
credit.
It will be seen from the foregoing
that the doctor was possessed of lively
interest all along for the material pros
perity of everything that contributed
to the good of Grand Rapids. its 1nsti-
tutions and its citizens. He will be
missed in all the active circles of our
city and the kindest regards of his many
friends will go with him in devout
wishes for his continued success and
happiness.

How to Make a Fortune.

The following are extracts from a
letter written by Henry Ward Beecher
to his son:
You must not so into debt. Avoid
debt as you would the devil. Make it
a fundamental rule: No debt, cash or
nothing
Make few promises. Religiously
observe the smallest A man who
means to keep, his promises can't afford
to make many"
''Be scrupulously careful in all state
ments. Accuracy and perfect frankness,
no guesswork. Either nothing or ac-
curate truth
Make yourself necessary TO those
who employ you by industry, fidelity
and scrupulous integrity. Selfshness
is fatal"
Hold yourself responsible for a
higher standard than anybody expects
of you. Demand more of yourself than
anybody expects of You. Keep your
own standard high. Never excuse
yourself to yourself Never pity your
self. Be hard master to yourself but
lenient to everybody else"
Concentrate your force on your own
business; do not turn off. Be constant,
steadfast, persevering."
''Do not speculate or gamble. Steady
patient industry is both the surest and
safest way. Greediness and haste are
two devils that destroy thousands every
year"
''The art of making ones fortune is,
spend nothing. In this country any
intelligent young man may become
rich if he stops all leaks and is not in
a hurry. Do not make haste; be pa
tent"
