STEEL BRIDGE ORDERED.
Baraga Township Board Will Erect
One Over Sturgeon River.

A steel bridge to span the Sturgeon
river i'm Section 81, 51-53, has been or
dered by the Baraga township board.
1t will be 1863 feet long and will be the
means of shortening the road between
Baraga and Pelkie by a considerable
distance. This bridge will be appre-
ciated by the farmers of the Sturgeon
river settlement who now have to
make a detour i'm order to reach Bar
aga. II also will help in opening up
large tract of good land for settle
ment. The bridge will cost $500. The
Joliet Bridge & Iron company has the
contract. Another important matter
to the farmers and public in general
was taken up when the board asked
the Austin Manufacturing company to
send a motor road roller and grader
on approval. The machine will be de-
livered some time i'm May and will be
given thorough trial before a deal to
purchase is made. The grader and
motor costs $2,750.

SUM MER GlNGHAMS.

These are the weeks when we be-

hams. The time for making is moi
yet. but we are casting about for at
tractive ideas, and as the counters are
piled with the newest things in tho
line of summer materials, lovely pat
terms may be had that later cannot be

Checked ginghams are always neat
and smart, and one cannot do better
than to have several for summer wear

THAT IsHPEMiNo CENSUS.
Will Not Do Work Over
But City May.

If lshpeming is to have a recount of
it's population, the work must be done
under the supervision and at the ex-
pense of the city. The census bureau
at Washington has not even answered
Mayor McCorkindale's letter, i'm which
he advised the director that the count
here was incomplete and the work had
been done by school boys.
After waiting a reasonable time for
e reply from Director Durand of the
census bureau. Mayor McCorkindale
wrote to Congressman II. o. Young,
asking him to look into the matter
and ascertain whether the bureau
would not order a recount. Mr.. Young
was fully conversant with the facts in
the case, although Mayor McCOrkin-
dale called his attention to the state
ments he had made in the letter to the
census bureau The congressman's re-
ply to the mayors letter was received
Thursday and is as follows:
MY Dear McCorkindale. / have
your letter enclosing a copy of a let
ter you sent Mr.. Durand. The fact Us
the census bureau says ii is too late
to make any recount. II has fur
nished its final figures TO congress to
form the basis of the apportionment of

ent states, and it says it cannot make
any changes. Yours truly IL. o..

Mr.. McCorkindale is very much dis
appointed that n recount will not be
made under the supervision of the
census bureau and that the figures an
nounced from Washington a few
weeks ago, representing Ishpemings
population, will be published by the
federal authorities There Is no doubt
in the minds of Ishpeming people that
the census is incomplete and that If a

planning why he came West, and also
is the cause of the sensational stage
fight that furnishes the climax for the
third act. In the end the sheriff wins
not only against Hastings, but some
thing nearer to his heart, the love and
respect of the one woman.
Willard Mack made of the character
role of "Bill Ruggles a part that stood
out. There are several good parts in
the new play. and the sheriff is one
of them The sheriff of the actor is
picturesque, but is never out of the
atmosphere of the play.
Miss Maude Leone has done few
better things in this city than the part
of Pinto Crockett, the Western girl
who is self reliant, loyal to her friends
and fearless to those fighting her.
Miss Leone won much praise in the
West for her rendition of the part
and yesterday her work won the COM
mendation of both the afternoon and
evening audiences. The actress knows
the Western country and its people,
and she makes Pinto Crockett a
type of the woman who might have
been met In the passing chapter of
Western history.

For the Poor.

The Luce county board OF supervis-

chase of a poor farm and has appoint
ed committee consisting of Messrs
Templeton and Buyers to investigate
matters and report at the next meet
ing. The expense of maintaing the
poor has been steadily increasing for
several years and the supervisors are
casting about for a method by which
this expense may be met with less bur-
den to the taxpayers. A larger poor
farm appeals to the supervisors as a
way out of their difficulties. The
present farm contains only five acres
of land and the superintendent of
poor says that not enough produce is
raised to supply the inmates. The av-
erage number of inmates cared for the
past year was between six and seven.
