SRI

At dinner the professor of history
was seated between two young ladies,
who, in accordance with their training
in the art of conversation, sought to
draw him out upon the subject in
which he was most interested. They
did not meet with much success; his
anevyers were short yes" "Oliver
Cromwell" NO" 1892" and the like.
Finally one of them in desperation
ventured:
professor, we were wondering only
this afternoon. and none of us could
remember: How many children did
Mary. Queen of Scots. have?'
This was too much. Madam" said
the professor. facing her with squelch-
ing dignity. II am not scandalmong-

HARVESTING TREES.

The annual harvest of Christmas
trees has commenced in the copper
country and Laurium has an unusu-
ally large number of dealers this year.
Two enterprising liverymen have for
the past week been bringing in the
trees in large numbers, and are now
selling them at fancy prices. In adj
dition to these there are a number
of others throughout the village who
have devoted considerable time to Sc
curing Christmas evergreen and who
are now retailing the trees and holly
from sleighs upon the streets.

LAURIUM
PROVE MEANS OF
REDUCING WAFER BILLS
Bills for Lake Water are One Third
Smaller Where Meters Have Been
Installed-Less Water is Con-
sumed Than Before.

The installation OF meters for the
consumers OF lake water in I.aurlum
has proved the means OF saving con-
siderable money for the residents. AZ
ter reading the meters for the past
quarter and computing the bills Of
those consumers on the meter basis 4
is found that for n large majority Of
them. the bills have been reduced no
less than one-third and I'm some in
stances as much as one-half from the
old fiat rate. The result is very graft
flying To the residents.
There are now about go meters In
stalled in Laurium, and sixty of these
were read for the first time this quar-
ter. 1t will be possible to compute more
accurately the extent OF This reduce
ton after the meters have been read
second time. Previous TO this quar-
ter almost all of the meters were in
stalled among the larger consumers Of
water and the difference was not as
onticeable.
The village has likewise saved con-
siderable money through the installa-
ton of the meters. The monthly wa
ter bills SOW an enormous reduction
in the amount Of the water consumed.
and il is believed that when the en-
tire town is on basis the problem
which has confronted the town for
some time will be solved. The bill for
one Of the recent months showed a re-
duction of almost 100000 gallons If
lake water over the corresponding
month last year.
The village has on hand forty me-
tiers, which are being installed as RAPE
idly as possible. 1t is thought that ny
this time in January, the entire num-
Der will be i'm use.

Boat Factory at Toledo.

The Modern improvement Com
pany has leased the property just
south and adjoining the city wharf
for period of three years at an
annual rental of $50. This COM
pany will build ways here for the
purpose of hauling out and painting
and repairing vessels, also build a
wharf for the loading and unloading
of freight and passengers. They
are also going to build a shop for
the manufacture of rowboats and
launches. All told they expect to
spend $500 for these Improvements
on this property, which work will
begin at once.
We understand that this company
experienced some difficulty in Sc
curing a site for the erection of
their plant, the difficulty being in t. e
way of a holdup. Such an enterprise
as this is what builds up the COM
munity and the citizens of Toledo
should not let it get away for the
lack of site on which to build.
