HUGEST SEA CREATURE.

Of all the uncanny creatures in the animal Kingdom the one whose ac- quaintance Is hardest to make is the blue whale, the largest of all the whales ,and, indeed one of the most colossal animals. living or extinct, known to science. You will look in vain for him in geological collections. in menagCries, or even in museums. A brute 90 feet in length and weighing just as many tons does not lend itself to preservation or stuffing, and the few skeletons of him which do exist give one no idea of what he is like. The blue whale is hunted by the Norweg- ians chiefly for the sake of his oil and is of considerable value, a full grown specimen being worth from $l.250 to $l ,000.

A little girl of lola, Kansas, who went to church the ether day, was deeply impressed by the prayers made for rain. At home in the afternoon she noticed the increased heat, and, suddenly lowing her head, offered a brief but fa'vent prayer for cooler weather, concluding with this eXpres- sion: And do you know.

Joseph Closuit.

On November I'd, at his home on
Baker street, opposite the T. B. Scott
free public library, occurred the death
OF Joseph Closuit, after protracted
illness caused by Bright's disease, at
the age of sixty years. The funeral
took place at the home Monday after
noon, Rev. w. A. Peterson of the
M. E. church officiating and the
remains were inferred at Forest Hill
cemetery.
Joseph ClOSuit was we'll known
character in Grand Rapids, having
been in business here since coming to
the town in 1873. He was native Of
Martiguy, Switzerland. At the age
Of twenty he went to France where
he worked as moulder in the iron
foundrieS of that country and after
wards engaged in business at Paris as
a music dealer. When the Franco
German war broke out he enlisted as
a volunteer on the, side of France and
served until it closed about one year
later, when he secured employment
on the Suez canal, helping to construct
that b ig water way. He had travelled
extensively in Europe and Northern
Africa and was linguist of consider
able attainment. In 1875 he married
Miss Louise Davegeau of Michicott.

Weather for November.

In the forecast of the weather for
November Prof. Hicks says. A Venus
period of disturbance is central on the
goth, and it's perturbing influence eX-
tends from near the first of the month
into December. But for this fact
there are few astronomical reasons
why November should not be COM
paratively placid month. Reaction
ary period central 1st and I'd, with
squalls and scattering storm, followed
by sharp change to colder and return
Of storm conditions extending from
5th to 10th. About 9Th to 10th storms
of wind, rain and snow will make
their transit from west to east across
the country. Rain and snow 11th to
18th, followed by more general change
to wintry conditions. Vulcan storm
period, with some of the most decided
storms OF the month, 18th to 21st.
Look for many storms, largely of a
blizzardous nature not more than 4S

followed by rushing cold wave that
will be felt far to the south. Month

OPENING OF NEwlposrAl ROUTE.
Rural Free Delivery No. I From Grand Rapids
Begun Operation Last Friday.

On authority of the poStotfice
department at Washington, D. c.
A. L. Fontaine, postmaster at Grand
Rapids, established the first rural
free delivery route from this point on
Friday morning Nov. l, 1901.
Theodore G. Timm, the appointed
carrier, had already supplied himself
with modern, up-to-date postal
wagon and was supplied with all the
paraphernalia, blanks, ETC., necessary
to the proper transaction Of the duties
of that office. He leaves the Grand
Rapids office every morning after the
distribution of the morning mail
which makes his leaving time about
$50 O'Clock. He travels twenty-five
and three-fourths miles aud returns
each evening at about 6 o'clock.
He is obliged to deliver mail along
SAID route to every person who COM
plies with the law and supplies them
selves with the regulation US. Mail
box, properly set upon post on the
route travelled. No person can receive
mail at any point on this route unless
they first provide themselves with the
regulation q. S. mail box. The value
OF this service is already greatly
appreciated, with some 40 boxes
already established and demands for
more boxes coming in every day. At
BirOn large sized U. S. mail box is
established for the use Of the general
public, the same as the free delivery
boxes in the cities. The rates Of
postage on this route are the same as
those at the city office, with this ex-
ception, that drop letters to be
delivered along the route must bear a
2-cent postage stamp instead of one
cent. Rhinehold Timm, a son of the
carrier, T. c. Timm, has been ap.
pointed a substitute in case of the
sickness or disability Of the regular
carrier.
For the information of the public
we will say that application has been
made for the establishment of route
No. 2, but no action has yet been
taken. There is a demand for three
or four of these routes from this town
and it is only question of time when
they will be established!

ANOTHER LIBERAL DONATION.
J. D. Wiiter OF This City Helps Free Library
Work in the State,

The summer school for
for library training. which has been
conducted by the Wisconsin Free
Library commission. at Madison. has
been remarkably successful and SO
popular that it has each year refused
scores of students from other states.
Former students, too, have wished to
return for further work, but could not
be accommodated. J. D. Witter of
Grand Rapids has now provided the
means to employ the additional in
StructorS and lecturers upon special
topics necessary to make two strong
supplementary courses at the session
in 1902. The first of these two courses
will cover four weeks work and will
include library work with the children
and schools, special work in cataloging
and the selection of books. The
second course will also cover four
weeks and will be devoted to inStruc-
tion in the catalogi1g, classification
and use of public documents. The
immense mass of valuable material
now published by the national and
state governments is not of much use
to the general public because it is not
properly arranged. The course in
public documents will be given by
Miss Adelaide r. Hasse, formerly Of
Milwaukee, chief Of the document
department of the New York Public
library. Miss Hasse was also librarian
in the office of the superintendent of
public documents, Washington, d, c.,
from 1S95-'97. She is leading au-
thority in her line and her course will
be attended by librarians from the
large cities and colleges in all the
central and western states. The usual
elementary course Of eight weeks for
librarians from small libraries will
also be given. If the experiment in
giving supplementary courses is as
successful as is expected the work of
the school will probably be per-
manently broadened. With the rapidly
growing work of the Free Library
commission, the State Historical, the
university and public libraries, and
the opportunities to hear able lect-
urerS at the summer session of the
university, the school of the commits
sion affords exceptional opportunities
for study for the ambitious librarian.
Miss Cornelia Marvin, who has
especial charge of the school, has
deserved reputation for exactness,
scholarship and teaching ability.
Many of her former students are
winning excellent positions.

The New Train Comes to Town.

Saturday night about 9 9o'clOck there
was strange whistle on the west side
going through all sorts of queer antics,
and people who did not or could not
go down to investigate, could not
imagine what sort of a stranger was in
our midst. It was stranger, how
ever, and none other than our long
looked for train from Princeton,
which pulled over the new bridge at
about $40 O'Clock, and the peculiar
tOOtings was due to the unfanliliarity
OF the train men with the complica ted
lot Of crossings, tracks and switches
on the road between the bridge and
the depot grounds.
The train crew was composed of the
following people whose homes are at
Oshkosh, Fond du Lac and Ripon:
w. II. Butler, conductor: Otto
Wojohn, engineer; Ed. Carney, fire.
man; John e. Adkins and Peter
Dwyer, brakesmen; and V. G. Hamil-
ton. express messenger. For several
weeks the end of their run has been
over at Bancroft which they found
rather lonesome place in which to
spend their evenings The boys say
that they were, however, we'll enter
tanned one night at ball, given by
the Woodmen lodge of that town.
They are therefore glad that the
more cosmopolitan place of Grand
Rapids is to be the end of this
division hereafter. 1t had been
expected that this train would arrive
Sunday but the boys thought they
would rather spend the night and the
day in Grand Rapids and so came over
a day ahead of time.
The new road is already doing a nice
business. From Bancroft, Almond,
Wild Rose and Wautoma they have
large shipments of potatoes to haul
east and from Granite they get two
cars day of granite paving blocks for
Chicago. At Wautoma this fall they
at one time found 30 car loads Of
potatoes ready for shipment and a
special had to be sent back for a part
of this freight. This new train is
only temporary affair until the road
is completed to Marshfield aud it will
be a mixed freight and passenger
affair for the accommodation of local
people. 1t will be run on the follow
ing time schedule:
Leave Fond du Lac at 49,. .5:45 a. m.
Arrive at Grand Rapids at. 5::25 p. m.
Leave Grand Rapids at. >. :. .6:35 a. m.
Arrive at Fond du Lac at. .4:45 p. m.
Close connections are made at Fond
du Lac with the passenger trains on
the main line going north and south
and the service between Fond du Lac
and Grand Rapids is daily.

ing the SUPPLEMENTARY and the
buying of the material. The out
come has been that the line will be
put in operation at cost to the COM
pany of only $4,000. As we said,
only the best material has been used
in the construction of the line and
Rhinelander now has a telephone
system that would be credit to any
city in the state. Arrangements have
been SO made that any of the sub
scribers can call up parties in towns
on the toll and long distance lines
without going to the central office.
The toll charge will be added to the
monthly account of the subscriber.
Should a non-Subscriber use the toll
line without going to central. the
subscriber should remember and
collect the toll, as the amount will be
added to the bill of the subscriber.

Franchise laDses,

OF the Stevens Point-Grand Rapids
interurban trolly line having failed to
file a bond Of $4,000 before Nov. /, as
a guarantee for the faithful fulfiIlment
Of the terms of his franchise, the
latter, which was granted to him by
the city council Of that city early in
the summer, has become Eull and OF
no effect. This is probably the end of
the trolley line project in this section
Of country for time at least. The
scheme has been painfully fascinat-
ing one but difficult to bring to a
successful conclusion.
