grounds near Iron River
had a close call from be-
ing destroyed by fire last week
A brush fire which had been
burning on the grounds, took q
fresh start last Wednesday

we're put to work and they soon
had the fire in such shape that
it could be controlled.

Pennsylvania arrived the latter part
of last week and have gone onto
their land just back of the dynamite
plant where they expect to make
their homes. Those coming will
clear up the land and engage in the
business of raising grapes for wines.

will ase almost entirely for raising
grapes. They have named their
settlement Tokaj after a famous
grape section of Hungaria. The
venture is a new one but it is be-
lieved that the grapes can be sue

Manager T. J. Skjelberg and sons
are now at work getting the plant
of the .Washburn Brick company
ready to begin operations in short
time. Several changes are being
made to the plant (which will oper-
ate on a large scale during the CON-
ing summer, giving employment to
quite a number of men. Mr., Skjel-
bred says that the quality OF the
clay is such that the very finest
kind of brick, can be made, and it
will keep getting better as they get
farther down into the clay. The
sales of the brick have been good
and the manager feels that he can
sell all that can be manufactured.
The size of the brick has been made
smaller, so that it will conform
more in size to the bricks being be-
ing manufactured at other places.

Council Members are Getting
Together
Want a Definite Lighting
Proposition for Next Meet
ing of Council.

The new council which held
it's first meeting on April 18th
believe in getting down to busi-
ness on propositions coming be-
fore that body and at the meet
ing held on Tuesday evening the
| lighting com mittee of the council
was instructed to get some def
mite proposition from the lighting
company to be presented to the
next meeting of the council
when some definite action will
very likely be taken. Alderman
Am IDLY of the 4th ward who has
given the lighting question con-
siderable of his attention,
showed the council where the
city could be lighted in fairly
good shape with about half the
number of lights and at about
half of the expense. According
to his views the streets of the
city could be lighted in fairly
good shape at cost to the city
of from five to seven hundred
dollars annually. It was his
opinion that the city should en-
deavor to make a start and as
the council felt more able more
lights could be added from time
to time.
The resolution to detach Sec
tions 81, %, 27 and %. Range 4
west, from the city came up at
this meeting and the petitioners
were represented by Attorney
A. w. McLaod, who gave a short
talk before the council. After
considerable discussion the reso-
luton was finally passed by avote
of s to 4, and the territory will
be so detached. This includes
the village of Houghton and the
farm land in that section.
