Harry Franks was down from his

He reports the catching of two mus
callonge yesterday off from his resort
by his guests, one weighed SO pounds
and the other %.
"A number of boys went out to
Cash Smiths camps for a few days,
but after their first meal a scrap was
started which broke up their camping
fever and the bunch walked the eight
miles home after supper, and carried
their tent and baggage, arriving here
ten o'clock in the evening, and thus
the campers enthusiasm has left them
for another year.
We wish to call the attention to
the change of time of the Mission

AT the meeting Of Board of School
Directors Saturday, the following
teachers were hired for tAe High
school building for the ensaing year:
Grammar Deptment, Miss Fannie Gar
rison; intermediate Department, Miss
Francis Diamond; 3rd Primary De-
partment, Miss Irene Abbott; End
Primary Department, Miss Lucy Stew
ems; Kindergarten, Miss Mary Vought.
The force of teachers, with one ex-
ception. stands as last year.
Last Thursday night the heaviest
frost known 50 late in the season, Wis
tied this section of the country. All
the root crops were more or less dam
aged, the clover also getting a slight
touch. The large strawberry fields
of viii Adams and n. l.. Kinney were
killed, also the blue, black and rasp-
berry crops will be nearly an entire
failure this year.
Frances Colman's gasoline launch
which he recently purchased at State
Line of Mrs. Mather, arrived here the
first of the week, and Frances has
been busy ever since getting it in run
ming order. Yesterday Robt. McLoud
accompanied Mr.. Colman on the trial
trip of the new launch. Everything
went lovely, and they went up as far
as Otter lake, when they started back
and after going but a short way on
the return trip, the batteries gave
out. But Robert had foreSeen that
trouble and taken an umbrella along
for the occasion, and by its aid acting
as a sail. they arrived home before
dark. The boat is a fine one but diff
ferent power will have to be used.
j. c. Clancy, of Green Bay, spent
last Tuesday in our city, making the
examination for specifications for the
new steam heating and ventiiating
system at the High school building.
He found that the present ventilating
shafts can be utilized without being
disturbed, which will mean great
saving in the expense OF building the
new system. Mr.. Clancy will return
in few days with the diagrams and
specifications, and if approved of by
BoaFn of School Directors, bids will
be advertised for. As Mr.. Clancy is
an expert on that line, his specifica-
tions will no doubt be accepted, and
our school building will have one of
the best steam heating and ventilat-
ing systems that are built.

A Curious Pulpit.

The oak pulpit in the Seamen's

claim to be a curio in the way Of pull
pits. 1t is built of wood in the shape
of a boats bow, and bears on the gun

ton: Nevertheless at Thy word l

There was a Norwegian in the crew
who was absolutely fearless aloft. He

afternoon, and as a grand finale stood

mast. We held our breaths until he
