ManitOWOC Breakfast Food

Manitowoc may still become famous
and Charles Gruhle may be the cause of
it. Mr.. Gruhle has invented break.
fast food, on the face of it that seems
easy and ought not to entitle him to
special priviledges, but on examination
conditions change. The food is made
from pure wheat and put up in sausage
castings, it is then thoroughly boiled.
The advantages Of this food are that it
takes at most two minutes to have it
ready for serving, being favored and
cooked, it only needs warming and is
then ready for the table. Bling put in
the castings all the nutritious value of
the wheat is retained But one of the
main features of the new food is that it
will be favored with beef extract or
given the peculiar smoky taste of sau-
sage and SO differ from all foods that are
on the market. Mr. Gruhle is consider.
ing putting the new product on the
market and will beyond doubt make
a success Of it.

TEACHERS AND SCHOOL BOARDS
State Superintendent Writes Letter Of
Warning To County Superintendents

The following letter was received by
county school superintendent Christian
sen which he endorses and adds that he
likewise does not give agents recommen-
dations and those protesting to have
such should be regarded as impostors.
OFFICE OF STATE SUPERINTENDENT
Madisonn, Wis, Aug. 81, 1901.
To County Superintendent Of Schools
For long time this and other states
have been infested by agents who
through various processes of misrepre-
sentation induce school officers to sub
scribe for and purchase school material
that in many cases is of little or no
value to the schools These persons
frequently represent themselves as
coming direct from the state depart
ment, or county superintendent. or
show forged recommendations from the
above named officers. In some instan-
ces they go so far as to impersonate the
state superintendent or some of his as
sistants. This il serious matter, and
we must be vigilant in order that we
may drive these imposters and their
worthless goods out Of the state.
Some agents of this sort are reported to
be active in various parts of the state at
the present time. County Superinten
dents are urged to warn all school
officers that they are apt to be canvassed
by such agents. 1t should be stated to
the school officers in the county, first
that no agent has in his possession any
recommendation given by the state
superintendent, or any person connected
with the state department. Second
that no sales are ever made or recon
mended by the state department. Fur.
ther, the statute as found in Section 436,
Chapter 27, Statutes of 1898 should be
quoted and all school people urged to
enquire Of county uperintendents be
fore maAing purchases from any agents
not absolutely known to be reputable.
Hoping that you will give this matter
your immediate attention, | am,
Very truly yours,
G. p. CARY
State Superintendent.

THE NEW
ELECTRIC Line
The Preliminary Survey Was
Completed Saturday by the
Engineers
THE COST WILL FOOT ABOUT sI,5OO,OOO.
Farmers and Business Men are Greatly
Interested in the Project-FolIOws
Calumet Road.

Saturday, Engineers o. B. Joerns
and W. II. Phelps of Fond du Lac,
arrived in the city having completed
the first survey of the interurban road
between Fond du Lac and Manitowoc.
The road will go from Fond du Lac to
Manitowoc via Chiffon and follow the
Calumet road, wherever possible keeping
the south side Of the road. The crook
edness Of the road will however necessi.
tate the occasional crossing to the
north side and may even compel the
company to purchase private right Of
way for distance. The road project is
backed by eastern capitalists and will
be put in first class condition causing an
outlay of one aud half million dollars
before it is completed Our farmers in
the western part Of the country are
greatly interested in the road as it will
give them ready way of reaching the
city and be especially nice in bad
weather. While our business men are
all interested in the road relying on it
to bring a great portion of the business
to Manitowoc that is now side tracked
at the small stations.
Work on the road IL to be commenced
early in the spring and the engineers
think that il will be ready for service as
far rs Silver Lake by July lst at the
latest, while the whole road is supposed
to be open for traffic by December 1

TWO MORE DRUG STORES
Further Opportunities TO be Given the
Citizens to Regain Their Health

Mr.. Adolph Wolfe Of Milwaukee, a
son in law of the late Gust Mueller will
open drug store on Washington street
near l4th. He has been engaged in the
drug business in Milwaukee, but thinks
there is a good opening here. This an
nouncement brings forth the fact that
the Ellig Bros. are building a store
corner 18th and Washington that they
intended to use as a drugstore. The
Washington street people will now be
well supplied and will have the where
with all to combat collie and headache

Now that the Postoffice investigation
is nearing an end, prominent republican
politicians are fastening to Oyster Bay
to exert their influence on the President
to prevent full publication of Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General Bristow s
report Just what answer the President
is making to these appeals cannot be
learned in Washington, but it is known
that before leaving for Oyster Bay, Mr..
Roosevelt pledged his word that the en-
tire report would be made public when
the investigation was completed and
that no guilty person should be shielded.
1t is known that the report places in n
most unenviable light many poll
ticians, who, because of the statute of
limitations or because of the cleverness
with which they covered mp their tracks
have not been prosecuted and it is sup.
posed to be the friends of these who are
pleading with the president to suppress
the facts. 1t is believed, however, that
the President will remember the ex-
perience of Postmaster General Payne
in attempting to suppress Mr.. Bristow =
reply to the Tulloch charges and will
profit by that unfortunate blunder.
That the public will never be satisfied
until the full report has been made pub
lie and that it will regard any attempt
at suppression by the administration rs
prima facie evidence of guilt is eyi-
dent from the expressions of the few
editors who have already learned of the
attempt to secure that end
