BARAGA SAW MILLS ARE
SHUT DOWN FOR SEASON
hester Estate and Baraga Lumb-
er Co.'s Plants Cut Many
Million Feet.
LOGGING OPERATIONS START

The two saw mills located in Baraga
have closed down for the season, the
Nester Estate mill closing about two
weeks ago and the Baraga Lumber
Co. ceasing operations this week. The
past season has been very successful
one in every way the amount of tim

i'm "A number OF years.
The Nestcr mill the past season cut
more than 100000 feet of mixed
timber Included in this was fair
proportion of pine which somewhat
dispels the belief that all the pine in
this upper peninsula disappeared years
ago The Baraga Lumber Co. operates
a smaller mill and their cut was about
100000, a fair cut for the size Of the
plant. This was also mixed lumber.
Logging operations in Baraga coun-
~ have already commenced in a large
degree and the prospects are there
viii be many camps operating there
during the winter The Nesters will
do no numbering whatever this win
ter I'm Baraga county but will probab-
~ coniine their mill operations next
year to cutting logs bought by Pinet
and Clemens. a timber purchasing
concern.
The Baraga Lumber Co will get out
about 100000 feet of mixed timber
during the logging season. a portion of
this cut to be handled by small job
bers and contractors. The decision OF
the Nester people to abandon lumber
ing in Baraga county this winter will
not be felt so much as might be
expected because smaller jobbers will
conduct operations, finding a ready
market for their material through pur-
chasing agents such as the one mem
toned However, the action of the big
ger company viii be a loss TO the
county.

TELEPHONE SOUTH 1879


1t is pretty fair To presume that
there Will be no ice skating at the
Amphidrome next Saturday night. the
date planned for the opening of the
season i'm the Portage Lake district.
Instead of skating there will be a
promenade in the Armory by the
Quincy band. The same prices which
prevail for skating and dancing any
other night win be charged Saturday
evening.
No attempt whatever has been made
yet TO make ice in the Amphidrome ow-
ing to the mildness OF the weather.
The hardwood floor has been taken up
and i'm its stead is seen the old pine
floor which has been down for several
years. Time was when dancing par
ties were given on this very same
floor but the Introduction of roller
skating made a new hardwood floor
necessary and the old one is used now
only for ice making purposes.
A force OF carpenters is at work
rebuilding a section of seats in the
rear of the building. The seats were
taken out to make larger accomoda-
tions during the county fair and they
have been out ever since. Manager
Mcnamara is also making a few ne
cessary repairs to the band stand.

HUMAN WORDS IN OLD CLAY.
Babylon is a Teacher, for Out Of Her

one of the hardest things for the
average man to realize, and which has
been the cause of endless misunder-

beings the world over, of whatever pc

mental characteristics essentially the
same. Universally until very recently,
and still, among the semi civilized
races, IL has been the habit to assume
that foreigners were i'm every way in
rerior, and we are prone to take it for
granted that the people who lived i'm
the early periods OF the worlds his
tory were simply grown up children,
with inteIlects, susceptibilities and
feelings very different from ours.

civilizations but it was not until the
famous Rosetta stone was found that
1t became possible to decipher either
the cuneiform inscriptions so abundant
i'm those cities or the Egyptian heirl-
glyphics. Since then the research
and industry of scholars have given us
almost complete history of those en-

Houghton county is probably paying
less attention to the switchmens

territory affected by the strike is the

the largest portion Of copper country
meats come. Its effect in this respect
is shown in st. Paul where the cattle
receipts for a day were only 800 head
when they should have been 1000.
Minneapolis is suffering from the
