 At the meeting of the board of pub lie works last night the following communication was received and re ferred to committee consisting of Mayor Kilduff and City Clerk Ryan for investigation and report:

leaving an overcharge of S296.25. In writer's statement before the board of public works he enormously included the bill for service No 2061, which has been paid as rendered this day. being a meter connected with a tenement house on East Main street.
 We submit that under the rules gov- erning the rates for water. there Is no clause for making the excess charge more than once, even though there be a number of meters installed in the service
 As a matter of convenience to the city and to ourselves. instead of Dlac- ing one large meter for the 12-inch pipe, we have elected to install sev- eral smaller meters located at different points. This enables us to classify the service, and to divide our accounts pronerly. If, however. it is more con venient and more desirable that 2 single large meter should be installed we are perfectly willing to govern our selves accordingly, but we contend there is no warrant for the attempt to collect maximum rates at each meter. The fact that the bills as rendered in May last were paid as presented has no bearing on the question, they hav- ing been paid by reason of an over sipht on the part of the disbursing of ficers of this comnany.
 The incorrect bills are returned here in and we request that 8 corrected bill be forwarded upon receipt of which payment will be promptly made.

Good Shooting.

There was lively contest in
craftsmanship at the Iron River Fair
one day last week. Monroe Sprague
captured all the principal honors,
making a record Of forty-six birds
out of a possible total of fifty. Q. A.
Lamoreaux was close second IN the
contests, having record of forty
five cut of fifty. II. A. Bell was a
little behind, but well up in the forty
mark The Iron River people did
not seem to be able to cope with
such craftsmanship, but they never
theless admired the skill Of the
Missionaries, and the event was
one of the big features of the fair.

The Stone is Laid.

The corner stone of the new
Catholic Church in this city, was
laid with imposing ceremonies
last Sumo ~. The issue of The
TIMES last week rather foretold
what was to occur, and the pro-
gram as was announced IN detail
in our last issue was carried out
to the very letter. The Catholic
Order of Foresters of this city,
were out in force, and were
augmented by a very large num-
Der of membersof theorder from
Ashland. The latter city turned
out a great number of visitors,
who helped to make theexercises
successful. Rev. Father Fabian,
|of Ashland, was in charge of
the Service and delived an adj
dress in the English language.
Rev. Father Chrysostum, spoke
briefly in the French language.
Rev. Father Fabian spoke in re-
ference to the building not only
as one for the comfort of human
kind, but emphasized the Spirit
ual significance of the laying Of a
corner stone for a Church build
ing. The event was a great one
in Catholic Circles, and the e:z-
ercises were carried out in a
manner beftting the Importance
lOf the occasion.

An Ashland w edding

Mr.. J. E. Davies, of Water town,
who acted as temporary chairman of
the democratic state convention two
weeks ago, and Miss Emily knight,
daughter of Colonel Knight, were
married at Ashland Wednesday night
of last week. The event was one of
the most notable that has occurred IN
Ashland society for long time, and
was attended by prominent people
from all over the country. After the
of the ceremonies the
young couple gave their friends the
slip, and instead of going away on a
long wedding trip made their exit
and escape from their friends
through window md drove to this
city, where they remained for a
couple of days, and then left on the
train Friday night. They consider
ed 5hey were playing quite joke on
their friends who had planned to
make their going from home a time
for giving them big send off. Mr..
Davies is bright young lawyer, and
is also prominent in democratic
circles throughout the state. Miss
Knight is an exceptionally popular
and charming young lady, with a
great many friends The wedding
gifts we're numerous, costly and
handsome.

Receivership Of the Prentice Ouarries
Ended.
IN THE COURTS MANY YEARS
Likelihood that the Sale Win Result i'm
the Quarry Resuming Business on
A Large Scale.-Bid in BY the
Creditors


The Prentice Browpstone quarries,
which have been tied up in the re-
Ownership, acting through the United
States Court, for a number of years,
has finally passed into new hands.
There have been all sorts of attemps
made to wrest the affairs of the con-
Germ from the Receivershlp, but
without success. The large number
of creditors will fare but poorly out
Of the sum realized on the sale, and
the amount will be only about suffic-
lent to satisfy the receivers claims
and obligations of late years. It is
understood that the purchasers sim
ply represent creditors who are de-
sirous of getting their money out of
the concern. The good thing about
the transaction will be that the
quarry will likely be re-opened, and
do business on a large scale. Dur
ing the ten years Of the receivership
the business has not been developed,
and only enough work has been done
to keep enough funds on hand to
transact the ordinary run of busi-
ness. 1t is probable that Fred E.
Goddard will continue in charge of
the property in the interest of the
new purchasers. Mr.. Goddard has
been receiver for about year, and
previous to that time was manager
OF the concern. The following ac-
count Of the sale is taken from the
Ashland Press:
Ashland, Wis, Sept. 10.
From the Press:-W G. Maginnes
Of New York City, representing GER

tice Brownstone company, bid in the

land on which they are situated, to-
gether with water rights, buildings,
derricks, and all other machinerys
and appurtenances, has been pub
lished in the Daily Press for some
months past, the sale was made this
afternoon by Frank M. Hoyt, special
mastor for the United States circuit
court, Attorney I. w. Spence of
Milwaukee, acting as attorney for
the receiver.
Mr.. Spence says that he thinks
the sale will result in the quarries
being re-opened. The sale was made
today in pursuance of a decree en-
tered on the Oath day of November,
1900, in the United States court
The quarries are very valuable
property, and when they are again
entirely freed from legal incum-
ORANGES. they will become paying
property, as they have been in the
past.
