- for their servants and lived
happi ever afterward.
This ended the literary and musical
part Il the entertainment. Tables
were arranged and forty OF the MEM
bers and guests played five hundred.
Just at this opportune time when all
were moving about looking for part
ners the electric light went OUT for
few minutes. 1t was evident the COM
mittee had not prepared for this as no
lamps were Immediately available.
As the president OF the electric light
company who is bachelor, was pres
ent in a room fl ed with attractive
young ladies there was very strong
suspicion that this was not an acct
dental happening, though not arrang
ed by the committee. The card playing
continued till the clocks said twelve
and time 10 stop. Ali seemed to thor
oughly enjoy the games with the con-
slant change OF partners in the mean
time. Win or lose, il was equally en-
joyable. as these players have found
out that al. have the lun OF playing,
and it is better 10 be a cheerful loser
than good winner and there is much
,ess competition.
The refresfment commitree-Mrs
Alfred w Walker, Mrs. J. Leslie
Eastburn and Miss Fmina'ine Derrick
son, now showed with what skill the
club members could serve the physical
needs Of man and womankind A
bountifu supply of both substantial and
dainty eatab es calculated to tempt he
| appetite of the most fastidious, not to
mention a gathering of larmers VINO
had their last meal six or seven hours
before, was now served in successive
courses.
The time required for this part OF the
'ertanment was not limited either
! by he committee or the supply of eat
ables. but for another reason that was
perfectly to the partakcrs. After a
general mingling Of al the guests,
who seemed reluctant to depart, all
| finally headed lor home with the hope
hat they might be fortunate enough
to get an invitation 10 the next enter
tainmen of he Waverly Cub, which
will be the annual picnic. About forty
| five were present as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Aired W. Walker,
| Mr.. and Mrs Ro,and Thompson, Mr..
and Mrs. William c. Passmore, Mr.
and Mrs. Alpheus Cavender. Mr.. and

The house was very tastefully decor
ated with green and white the cOlors
OF the cub, and being OF modern build
so arranged that a. the rooms can be
practically made into one with very
little obstruction, the whole company
were entertained as init which added
much to the sociability of the aa;r.
The first part OF the programme was
a literary guessing contest divided in
to three classes, names first of author,
second of great men, and third OF
some of those present, the first letter
OF each word being the first letter of

SAUfR
PASSES AWAY
WELL KNOWN CALUMET BUSl-
NESSMAN DIES AFTER LONG
ILLNESS. PIONEER OF
COPPER COUNTRY.

The death of Peter Sauer. which oc-
CURED yesterday morning, marks the
passing of one of the upper penin-
sula's oldest pioneers and best known
residents He had been in failing
health since the death OF Mrs Sauer,
about eight years ago. suffering from
internal trouble, and i'm hopes of OBJ
tanning relief, he underwent an oper-
alton about ten days ago. His condi-
ton was believed to be satisfactory
up To yesterday morning, when he
grew worse and death followed soon
after.
From humble beginning at the
old Connecticut and old Gin mines In
keweenaw county, where, as he stat
ed not long ago. he worked for eight
dollars per month, and board, Mr..
Sauers business acumen and German
thrift resulted i'm the accumulation OF
great wealth. He was the holder of
1895 shares OF Calumet and Hecla
mining stock. as well as stock in
other well known Lake Superior
mines, and considerable real estate.
Through times of dullness and of
prosperity, he never lost confidence in
the future OF mines i'm this section.
and he was one of the few investors
in G. q III. stock when II reached the
high level Of $1,000 per share a few
years ago.
The late Mr.. Sauer was born on
August 4. 1888. i'm Bavaria. near the
province Of Coburg, Germany. At
the age of seventeen. he came TO
America, locating In New York, where
he worked at a shot factory for about
three months, but finding that 1t was
injurious to his health, he removed To
Hartford, Wis. where some relatives
were located He remained there eight
months, coming then to Lake Superior
to join an older brother, Fred Sauer
who was located at Ontonagon. on
his arrival at Ontonagon i'm 1856 he
discovered that the brother had left
on the previous day for Eagle River.
and he at once went to that point.
After working for a few months there.
the mines at which he worked were
closed down and he went to Quincy.
where for thirteen years. dating almost
from the opening of the mine, he
worked for the Quincy company. Up
on leaving this position. he establish
ed himself in business i'm Hancock.
making frequent business visits to
other towns of the copper country.
The fire which swept Hancock i'm 1870. |
wiped out Mr.. Sauers home as well
as his business. Immediately after
ward, he came 10 Calumet. secured
half of n lot which is still among the
Sauer holdings on Fifth street and
started n business here, remaining i'm
Calumet continuously from that time.
In 1859. Mr.. Sauer visited New York,
where he was married to Miss Mar
garet Leicnt an old schoolmate in
Germany. Mrs. Sauer died about eight
years ago. Five children survive,
Misses Nina, Laura and Bertha and
Albert Of Calumet and DIR. Fred Sauer
OF Indiana Harbor. Ind, also one
Brother, John Sauer of Butte. and two
sisters, Mrs. Anna II. Geiger Of Wash

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

But the object OF this story is to call atten-
ton once more, and for perhaps the thou
sandth time, to the riches of the soil along
the Colorado on both sides, incident to the
depositidg of this mass of debris during all
the past ages. Going through the country
on the Arizona side of the river, for several
miles below Yuma, one encounters the same
type of country and soil that is found in the
Imperial Valley country around Brawley,
Calexico and other points west of the river
The fertility of the black prairie soils of Illi-
nois has aStonished people engaged in agri-
culture for nearly one hundred years. The
fertility of the valleys OF the Nile has been a
matter of history for at least 5000 years. Those
who are familinr with Illinois prairie SOIL
and those who know what the valley of the
Nile is for agriculture. know that this lower
Colorado River region surpasses both of them.
Ifyou ask farmer along this stretch OF
country If the soil is six feet, his eyes will
open with establishment al your ignorance.
He will tell you no one knows whether it is
80 feet, 800 or 500 feet Deep 1t is practically
without bottom. 1t is SO thoroughly well
mixed with sand, disintegrated granite and
other rocks that it never breaks. 1t is as
easily worked as a heap Of ashes, and re-
spends to cultivation in a way that is mar
Vicious.
