with ready sale, as they were admit,

she Fish Creek Road

Ashland Press. Chairman Nels
Nelson, of the town of Washburn,
bayfield, county, and chairman or
mayor of the village Of Washburn,
was in the city yesterday. He mas q
road building bee il his bonnet and
if his plans are carried out, Ashland
and Washburn will be joined By one
of the best roads in the sta5e, the
long bridges between the cities be-
ing done away with. The present
road to Washburn is very unsatis-
factory. la the first place q good
share Of the road is low and swampy
and in the second place there are
two long bridges that are cons family
ia need of repairs and are an ever
present source of expense. One Of
these long bridges is 10 Bayfield,
county, nearly seven thousand feet
long. Mr.. Nelson's new plan for .
road will do away with both Of
these bridges and lengthen the road
less than half mile.
His idea is to use the old road
from Washburn as far as Hosmer' S
corner and than instead Of turning
towards the bay to continue due south
for about half mile and then dj.
agonally across to Iomkin's farm and
bhen past Paige S farm and due east
north Of Prentice park to the city.
This road crosses a swamp, but as
the timber has been cut off the
swamp is. rapidly driving up and a
good, pafmanent road could be made
with corduroy covered With a heavy
Icoating of earth. The Washburn
people have their own road scraper
and other road building machinery
and can do . good job. There will
BE practically no expense to Ashland
in connection with the new road as
there is already fairly good road
running to Tomkin S farm. The
fmoney saved to Ashland, however,
will be considerable as it will do
awaywith the long nine hundred
foot bridge Just north of Prentice
park The Washburn people will

Device to Make war Brood1ess.

Bloodless yet decisive battles are
rendered possible by the hyposcope. an
invention of a clergyman, which was
exhibited at the national rife meeting
at Bisley, writes the London CORE
spondent Of the New York World. By
an arrangement of a mirror in rer@
tical tube a marksman completely
under cover can sight an opponent,
who is also in cover, and take accu-
rate aim at him The inventor made
some capital shooting under these con-
ditions. His idea is that armies
equipped with his device would shoot
at hyoscopes instead Of at the heads,
the soldier being considered dead when
his hyposcope is broken.
