HoRTENsE NIELSEN TALKS.
Entertains Students of Lake Linden
Hiah School With lbsen Story.


Miss Hortense Nielsen spoke on Ib-
sens work to the one hundred and fif-
ty pupils at the Lake Linden higl
school yesterday afternoon. Miss Mel
sen is perfect example of the Ibsen
student. She met Ibsen some years
ago i'm Norway and she studied the
part of Nora Hclmer and she studied
the part Of Nora Helmer long before
appearing i'm the play.
The talk to the students was very
pleasing. Miss Nielsen has a highly
cultivated voice and every word she
uttered could be heard distinctly i'm
the auditorium. She dwelt principally
on the life of the great Norwegian
poet and dramatist, declaring that he
knew human nature and went deeper
writer who had ever lived. He un-
derstood people. their faults, and their
weaknesses more than any Of the an
cient or modern writer's. The speaker
compared Ibsen's call to the women Of
the stage with that of the cali Of
Peary and Cook to the north pole, so
difficult are they to Interpret Ib-
sen, she declared, gave his works TO
the world. He was socialist and
lived and died poor man. His roy
altlos from his works were very small

Route to the County Road.
The residents of Laurlum will prob
ably urge in IA short time the cstab-
lishmcnt OF township road running
from the south end of Hecla street,
Laurium. to Union or Columbia
streets, Raymbaultown, which will
provide connecting link between the
streets of that village and the county
road. The project has never been for
mally taken up, although for years the
residents have been anxious to bring
the question before the proper au-
thorities.
At present Laurium residents must
use "A roundabout way to reach the
county road. and it is urged that the
completion OF a highway between the
south end of Laurium on Tamarack or
Hecla streets would simplify the route
TO Houghton. 1t would make it pos
sible for persons using the county
highway to come direct 60 Laurium
instead of passing through several
streets i'm Calumet location.

road would be a very small matter

FLORIDA WATER COMPANY
is MAKING FINE PROGRESS

The force Of men which has been
engaged in installing the pipe of the
Florida Water company for the past
few weeks is making fine progress ana
by the end of next week, il is expect
ed that the entire system will be COM
plete and that the water will be turn
ed on for the use of the consumers.
The force of men numbers about TWEEN
ty-tive ana thus far about 5000 feet
of pipe have been laid, leaving ball
ance Of about $500 feet TO be installed.
As the pipe is being laid at rate Of
about 500 feet per day, it is estimated
that but short time will be required
to complete the system. The last ship
ments of pipe about five carloads,
were received this week, and the com
pany now has enough pipe to COM
pote the system.
Several tests have already been
made Of the pipe installed. and they
have proven to be satisfactory 1t IS
expected that the work of tapping the
mains for the individual subscribers
will be started next week. Meters
will be Installed for each consumer.
The rates which will be charged for
water have not been determined as
yet, but will be announced after the
next meeting of the directors. About
1000 feet of pipe remains to be cover
ed, but this can be easily accomplished
before the arrival OF the cold weather.
