Mrs. Chas. F. Denton OF this city, was
united In marriage on the 10th dav of
this month to a Mr.. Kinds, of SMYRNA.
Mich. Mrs. Denton went to Michigan
early in the winter on a visit to her old
nome and had intended to return, in the
spring. The news OF the marriage
Wasa very pleasant surprise to her
many friends at this place. The Re-
VIEW extends congratulations.
The leap year dance given by the
Royal Neighbor lodge was huge sue
cess as far as the social end of the af-
FAIR was concerned. Financially it was
not SO much of success, although we
have heard no complaints from the
ladies over the deficiency in the re-
ceipts. Some of the boys we under
stand did not receive bid and are feel
ing considerably worked up about it..
Nevermind boys, there probably WASH It
girls enough to go around.
1t has been agreed that newspaper
subscriptions are an infallible test of a
mans honesty. They will sooner or
later discover the man. If he is dis
honest he will cheat the printer some
way-declare that he has paid when he
has not, sent money in the mail which
WAS IOSt nv. cUuo~ ~ that ka hos po;d or
some member Of the Office force-will
take the paper and not pay for it on
the ground that he never subscribed
for it or move off and leave it coming
to the Office he left. Thousands of al
legged christians are dishonest in this
at least, and the printers books will
tell dreadful tales OH the Judgment
day.-Ex.
We notice by our exchanges that in
a great many of the neighboring cities
the old maids-and young maids too,
for that matter-have organized clubs
and debating societies for the purpose
OF helping along their chances of get
ting married. So far we have not
heard of a movement of that kind being
made here in Eagle River, and further
more we don It think there will be. In
the first place we don't believe there
are any old maids here-at least we
can't recall any because they never
get past twenty-five or else get mar
rted. In the second place the average
Eagle River girl is possessed of those
charming, winning ways and captivat-
ing personalities to win a husband in
the good old way. None of your leap
year proposals for her.
Jas. Donnelly, president of the Three
Lakes Canal & Transportation Co., was
In town Tuesday and Wednesday. Mr.,
Donnelly says that the company's stock
is selling quito readily, and
especially IN Rhinelander, where
they seem to be quite enthusiastic over
the project. Mr.. DonneHy also says
that Rhinelander parties are contemp-
lating forming similar company to
improve the Wisconsin river and thus
reach the Eagle waters by boat from
that place. With Three Lakes on one
end actively engaged at present in
improving the attractiveness OF these
waters, and Rhinelander nearly fifty
miles away from the nearest lake for
mulating plans to reach them by boat,
we find the people of Eagle River
with some exceptions, however-calm-
ly watching proceedings, and here we
are right on the very banks OF these
celebrated lakes.
Messrs Hoffman & Heb, of Merrill,
have come to the aid of suffering hui
mainly with little invention that is
calculated to bring happiness and bliss
into the household. 1t is simply an
arrangement attached to small alarm
clock which starts your fire for you in
morning when the alarm goes off by
the igniting of string that has been
saturated in quick burning solution.
All that YOU have to do is put few
sAayings and fine wood into the stove
aud fill the fire box up with hard wood,
set your alarm clock on the hearth
with the string attached to the igniter
leading in among the kindling, wind
the alarm and go to bed. When you
get up In the morning-if you hear the
alarm-the kitchen is warm and your
coffee cooked. The machines, including
the clock, sell at So.
Escaped An Awful Fate.
