GOOD COUNTY.

Marathon county is the best county
in Wisconsin and we have the best crops
to be found anywhere" said b. F. Nc
MILAN, the weil-known lumberman, at
the Hotel Phster. "Our hay crop is
simply immense and all other crops
are in proportion. When | say that
Marathon county is the best county in
Wisconsin, mean every word OF it.
We have the best land. the best farms,
the best stock, the best barns, and when
it comes 10 the people, the best repub-
licans aud the best democrats, too.
II am inclined to think that business
matters viii continue to be all right,
but must confess that have been fooled
about such things. A presidential cleo
ton always has tendency to unsettle
business. / remember that in 1888 |
was foresighted enough to get into the
clear, and when the depression came,
was in position of safety. In 1892 /
looked over the situation and made up
my mind that everything would be all
right, so neglected to prepare. What
is true of myself is equally true of
thousands of other business men. The
squeezing out process year and half
ago, it seems to me, has placed the
country on a good substantial basis.
and there is no apparent reason for
panicky conditions now Milwaukee

ASYLUM zoo.

Two fawns were born a week ago at
the county asylum grounds and give
promise of thriving well in captivity
Our readers will perhaps remember
of p. o. Means and several others catch
ing a deer back of the Leader store
last fall The deer and a mate were
driven into the city by dogs during the
hunting season, and after one had
crossed the river above the Island mill,
it took refuge back of above named
store and was caught. The captors a
few days later presented it to the
asylum, and some time after, the super
intendent, Mr.. Thomas, bought mate
for it. 1t was the practice for while
to lead the male around on the barn
floor for exercise, but one day last
spring he objected to being led, and
raising one of his front feet, attempted
to loosen the rope around his neck, but
got his foot tangled up with the rope
and his ankle was broken. The ankle
was bandaged up and an effort made
to save him, but he died. The superin-
tendent informs us that trees will be
planted about the asylum in the near
future and that the grounds will be
made as park-like as possible. Deer
and other animals will be placed in the
grove, and the contribution of wild ami
mails from citizens will in time make a
geological garden of the now almost
fraelasS lawn

IN WOODS ALL NIGHT.

Mrs. Richard Ehreke, who resides at
502 Washington street, went out over
the hill east of the city Thursday to
pick berries. When night fall came
she did not return home, which caused
her children some alarm, but thinking
that possibly she had remained at some
farm house for the night they did not
report the matter to the police until
next morning. When she did not re-
turn next morning Chief Malone was
informed, and he and Sheriff Chellis
drove out in the territory in which she
was supposed to be and spent the fore
noon in looking for her. Mr.. Ehreke,
who was working at Tomahawk, was
telegraphed for and came home on the
morning train. In the afternoon the
three went out for another search, Mr..
Ehreke on foot and Messrs Malone and
Chellis by team. The latter in inquir
ing along the way found several farmers
who had seen such a woman as de-
scribed to them. While stopping at
the farm of Frank Berard, about three
miles east of the city, to make inquiries
the woman was seen coming out of the
woods. She was approached and
asked if she was not lost but as she
does not speak English she could give
MesSrS. Chellis and Malone no intelli
gible answer. They, however. sue
ceeded in making her understand that
they would take her home with them.
When she arrived home she gave her
daughter an account of her doings.
She claimed to have gone into the
woods and filled her pail with berries
and when about to come home a rain
shower cane up and she sat down under
tree and remained all night. The dog
that accompanied her was still with her
when she was found by the officers. 1t
is quite evident that she wandered
around in the woods for some time,
| for she was worked up to pitch of
excitement ard had eaten scarcely any
thing. She still had left four apples
she had picked the day before, though
the balance of her lunch was consumed.
She spent about thirty hours in the
woods, but though the country through
which she travelled has growth of TIM
Der, most of il is so cut up with roads
and farms that il would be almost inn
possible for anyone TO get lost for any
length of time.

RAILROAD is REACHING CUT.
Evidence of Milwaukee's Plan to Ex-
tend Valley Division.

Evidence of the intention of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee q St Paul road to eX-
tend its Wisconsin Valley division into
Michigan to Lake Superior is the plans
for extensive construction work around
commenced on large railroad bridge
over the river at Ontonagon 1t has
been announced also that work will be
started shout Sept. l on the construc-
ton of the Nester Sullivan logging road,
which will run to the Wisconsin line
from Ontoaagon. Six miles are to be
built this season. At Star Lake consid-
cradle construction work is also being
done and it is said the road will have
been extended fourteen miles before
cold weather comes. With the building
OF new roads toward each other from
both ends, it looks as if it will not be
long before the line will run through to
Lake Superior
A continuation of the Valley division
northward will tap district rich in.
timber and minerals. 1t would also inn
prove the Milwaukee roads facilities
for reaching the great copper country,
district which produces a large
amount of freight and passenger traffic
In this connection, it would seem, that
the Milwaukee was planning to land a
share of this business, as it is again re-
ported in Boston that the Milwaukee
has made an offer to buy the Copper
Range railroad, which runs from Mass
City to Calumet through toe mining
district. The question of price, it is said,
IS delaying the completion OF the deal.
The Copper Range people want S4, ,500,-
900 for the property. The road is a divi-

Northern Wisconsin is developing
rapidly and the railroads are constantly
giving more attention to the district

tended in order to haul the increasing
quantity of timber now being trans

and paper mills in the Wisconsin river
valley. Leader.
The above mentioned extension may
be like good many other railroads
built on paper only. While the exten-
sion might be of some indirect benefit
to the people of this valley it is not
very plain where any great gain to us
would result. 1t is true a timbered Sec
ton would be opened up that might be
a source of supply for our wood work
ing institutions, but so far as there
being any increased shipping from
Northern Michigan over the valley
division we doubt it, and if there was,
no one would be benefited but the rail
road company. The St. Paul, when it
bought the old Milwaukee & North
ern road few years ago, secured a
much shorter route from the copper
country of Northern Michigan to Mil-
waukee and Chicago than would be the
valley division, even though the latter
should be extended to the Michigan
peninsula. But then the ST. Paul COM
pany no doubt knows its own business.
