The people of Stevens Point are COM
planning on account of the very low
stage of water in the Wisconsin river.
The Gazette says: 1.-THE Wisconsin
river at this point is lower at present
than it has been for several years, espec-
tally at this season of the year, and
unless there is soon raise, many logs
in the river and its tributaries will be
hung up for another season, much to
the detriment of mill owners and en-
ployes. The Week Lumber Co. have
several million feet hung up on the Eau
Pleine river, which is also very low"
Those who take an interest in the
local Y. M. G.. A. are casting about
looking for suitable grounds outside
the city, bordering on some stream,
which can be secured as an outing place
for members of the association. If a
suitable place can be found, which can
be secured for reasonable figure, it
will be purchased. A building will be
erected on it provided with dressing
rooms, wardrobe, storage place for
boats, athletic and other paraphernalia.
Many of the members are unable to get
away on summer vacations and such n
place would afford an opportunity for
bathing, boating and other sports. The
idea is not to get plot of ground too
far removed from the city.
