Division Engineer Birdsell and Con-

places, which were but recently bal

sengers never feel jar.
w. r. Gillis of Superior, who made
the preliminary survey for the Central
before there was brush cut, was as
much pleased over the completion of
the line as any of those present. He
was greeted by many Ladysmith
Boosters with whom he became ac-
quainted while engaged in the survey

O. C. Sabin combined business with

Brick & Tile Co. Elect Dire ctors.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Ladysmith Brick & Tile
Co. was held Wednesday. The follow
ing directors were elected: R. H. Burns,
Chas. Karst, J. L. Ryall, j.. W. Carow
and L. E. McGill. 1t was voted to in
crease the capital stock by $4,000, to be
issued in shares of S25 each.
This company started last year
and demonstrated that Ladysmith can
produce a fine grade of brick. They
had some expensive experience, as
most new enterprises do, but the ven
ture was sufficiently successful that the
stockholders are all we'll satisfied with
their investment. They intend to man
facture brick on a more extensive scale
the coming season, and have begun
making preparations to that end. One
man has already agreed to take 800, 900
brick, to be used in building operations
here next season.

Wisconsin. In many respects it excels
other cities of the world: 1t has Az
miles of the finest natural harbor in the
world 1t has the largest ore dock, the
largest coal docks, the largest grain ell
evator and the largest railroad yard IN
the world; it is the largest coal receiv-
ing port, the greatest wheat shipping
port, and the greatest ore shipping cen
tre in the world; it has the third largest
shipyards and the second largest dry
dock on the Great Lakes; it has the
two largest merchandise docks in the
world; it is the third largest tonnage
port in the United States and the fifth
in the world; it has the greatest water
power for generating electricity, ex-
cepting Niagara. With all these ad-
vantages, the prediction that Superior
is to become the first city in Wisconsin
as soon as one or more of the proposed
deep-water routes to the Atlantic is
developed, is not hard to believe. At
present Duluth, built along a rocky
bluff, may eclipse her in some ways,
but the natural advantages of the Wis
consin city and the energy of her busi-
ness men are combining to make her
steadily forge ahead. A few years ago
Superior suffered the reaction from a
BOOM but she has sufficiently recov-
cred so that those who were bitten"
the worst now treat their misfortune as
a Joke.
