An Inspection Engine for the
Burlington.

A curious-looking piece of m.achin-
cry is the new inspection engine
TUNED out for the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy Railroad. 1t is a COM
bination of a locomotive and passen-
ger car, the car being set on and
around the engine boiler, SO that from
the windows at sides and front the
roadbed can be inspected by the rail-
road officials to the greatest advan-
Itage. 1t might appear such near
proximity to the boiler would mean
uncomfortable warmth, but this is
avoided by an extra thickness Of
plastic tagging" as it is called, a
non-conductor of heat, in connection
with an air chamber between this and
the floor of the car. The machine is
lighted with electricity, even to an
electric headlight, and ten lights dis
tributed udder the engine to Oxford
light when oiling. 1t will be used
constantly on all inspection trips.

Rudolph Seicks, representative OF
the Hawks Nursery of Milwaukee, is
in town soliciting orders for Nursery
stock. The different kinds OF trees
and shrubbery received in town from
the Hawks Nursery, have given the
best of satisfaction, and Mr.. Seicks
will no doubt receive some large or
ders while here.

Northern Wisconsin Development.

Northern Wisconsin Development.
That rapidly developing terri
tory which occupies the northern
half of Wisconsin is not new
enough to cause the hardships
and vicissitudes of frontier life,
and not old enough to keep
away the intending settler on &C
count of exorbitant land prices.
1t is in that stage of partial de-
velopment which gives greater
opportunity to bring it to the
highest point OF. perfection and
prosperity. Schools, goodroads
and other improvements are go
ing in. All that is needed, is
a small capital. Drawn and
brain, supplemented by push and
energy will do the rest. The
iron ore, mari. kaolin and clay
beds, the timber and the rich soil
give equal opportunity to the
settler and the manufacturer.
Land is cheap and can be pur-
chased on easy terms.
THE WISCONSIN CENTRAL R'Y.
offers facilities for the quick and
cheap transportation of it's pro-
ducts and as the line penetrates
the, very center Of this vast north
lern territory, choice of location
is not confined to- any one par
ticularllocality. 4

tiful and rich country can be OBJ

rounding as it is now. We need our

The question comes to day: Have we
made real progress? Is there a larger
proportion of sheep or goats? Have
we drawn nearer to the ideal set by
Christ? DO we love God wit n all our
selves. William Carey while at his
bench, cobbling shoes. would put his
awl here and there on the map show
ing where gospel should be preached.
Samuel Mills and his fellows took re-
fuge under a hay stack during a thun-
der storm. 1t was there that the \.
B. G. F. M. was organized. The Amer
lean Bible society to day is standing
on the site of an old gamLling cen.
prints Bibles in 800 languages. In 1890
the continent from Patagonia to tt e
Arctic circle was filled with savage
tribes, who never had heard sermon or
seen Bible. To-day our flag floats
over 2O,OOO,0O souls whose ancestors
were idol worshippers, barbarians and
ignorant. What will the historian.
writing in the year 2OO0 say? He Will
not review century of startling in
ventions but rather great world
movement toward the realization of
the brotherhood of mankind, Amer
lea leading the way. He will say there
has no AnglO-SaXon blood fallen on
the battlefield. There has been no
pestilence or famine in the land. He
will say rapid communication has been
made easy. The children of the poor
est have been educated. Labor has
been found profitable and congenial so
that the workingman is living in COM
fort with a plentiful provision for the
future. Is this dream or is it a
chronicle of facts. Benjamin Frank
lin, when attending banquet of
prominent men, listened attentively

like to compare England to the sun
whose light encircles the globe and
whose influence is felt throughout the

81 would compare France to the moon

When the gentlemen had both finished
