The first church of the congregation
was built In 1854 by Rev. L. Dael Of
Milwaukee. Up to this time the Cath
Ollie families living at this point were
ministered to by FIR. Van den Bruck
of Little Chute, on the Fox river, who
annually made the trip through the
wilderness to serve them.
In 1857, through the influence of
Francis Biron, the congregation was
organized and Rev. James Stehle be-
came the FIRST resident priest. The
interior Of the little structure in which
this congregation worshipped was not
completed until 1859, while Father
Davis was the poster. The foundation
of the present building was laid by
Rev. John Gleason in 1867 but it was
not completed until 1871, when Father
Tanguay was in charge. The building

PLAN ELECTRIC LINE.
uperior-Ashand Railway Stock to Be
Held by Farmers.


According to report that has been
in circulation the last few days an
electric line probably will be built
from Superior to Port Wing, in Bay
field county, and on to Washburn and
Ashland. Capitalists from Superior
and Duluth are said to be at the
head of the project and are spending
considerable money investigating the
feasibility of such a line. The propo-
sitiOn is that the land owners along
the line subscribe for stock in the
company for as many dollars as there
are acres of land within a siX-mile
limit OF the road.
According to the report the pro
posed line would follow along the
shore line from Superior to Port Wing
and thence across the country to
Washburn and on to Ashland The
line would be between ninety and a
hundred miles long and would run
through territory that is being fast
opened up as a farming section.
The people of the town of Port
Wing are enthusiastic over the report
