AHMEEK NEWS
ANNEX SITE FAVORED.
Proposed New Catholic Church May
Be Erected There.

The committee in charge of the af-
fairs of the proposed Catholic church
at Ahmeek met recently in Lesh's hall.
The building site was not definitely
chosen, but it is practically decided
to build in Ahmeek, as near to the
car line as possible. The members of
the committee from Ahmeek village
and townsite and Allouez, who repre-
sent the majority of the people, want
the church built in Allouez township,
declaring Copper City is so situated as
to be inconvenient for many to attend
the services.
If the church should be built at Cop
per city, the members of the commit
tee from that place have been offered
two lots upon which to build, and $500
worth of lumber, so that now it is UP
TO the Ahmeek Land & Improvement
Co. to come forward with as good an
offer. If this is done the church will
be located at Ahmeek.
Although the financial committees
have not met as yet. il is known that
each has been successful in its terri
tory and il is expected a large sum

really first-class offerings have been
rather scarce. the play was very re-

laughter throughout the entire even

BEAUCHAMP TO
LECTURE HERE
WILL APPEAR AT CALUMET THE
AFTER MONDAY EVENING UN-
DER AUSPICES OF THE
Y. M. c. A.

Lou j. Beauchamp, philosopher and
lecturer will appear at the Calumet
theater on Monday evening under the
auspices of the Calumet Y. NJ. c. A.,
the number being one of the regular
lyceum course attractions for the
year. Mr.. Beauchamp has selected as
the subject of the lecture to be deliv-
cred here, Take the Sunny Side
which Is said to be one of the subjects
which he has handled most successful
ly. AS a large number of tickets have
already been sold for this attraction,
there is little doubt that the attendance
will be large.
Besides being a lecturer and philoso-
pher Mr.. Beauchamp Is known as a
humorist and a great teacher. He has
the happy faculty of putting his
thoughts in such a way that they can
not fail to be appreciated. The lee
ture that is to be given in Calumet has
been delivered eleven times i'm one
city, four times at one Chautauqua and
has been heard in almost every large
city of the country.
Concerning his recent appearance in
that city, the Great Falls, Montana,
Tribune says
Mr. Beauchamp Is advertised as a
humorist who makes people think, and
a philosopher who makes people laugh,
and he fully comes up to the advertise
ment. For a good share of the time
while the lecturer was on the platform
last evening the house was convulsed
with laughter. His stories were ini-
mitable and they were told inimitably.
But laughter and stories were not all.
There was pathos as WELL and both
the humor and the pathos brought
home lesson in the conduct of every
day life"

McGOORTY-LEWIS.
Hitch in Negotiations Owing to Dis
pute Over Weight.

Eddie McGoorty appears to have
jumped into the game with both feet
on the other side of the water. The
Oshkosh man and his friend. Patsy
Callahan of Nenah, Wis, didn't sue
coed in landing a match with Harry
Lewis. as they confidently expected,
the weight being bar to the match.
McGoorty named the English middle
weight limit of 11st.6 or 100 pounds at
. o'clock. but this was bit too strong
for Lewis. who Immediately stated that
15S pounds at the ringside should be
the limit.
AS ringside weighing long since has
been tabooed in Great Britain, as it
should be everywhere else, Lewis did
not make a hit with this comeback
and at last accounts the Americans
were nagging at each other through
the press at a merry clip.

One Of the features Of the receptions
at King Georges court this year viii
be the revival of the old fashioned
and graceful courtesy. OF late years,
indeed all through King Edwards
reign, the half courtesy was practiced.
King Edward himself let it be under
stood that it was sufficient. Curiously
enough, the people who never availed
themselves of this permission were
the Americans presented at court.
They always remained faithful to the
old deep courtesy The full courtesy
is not the easiest thing to manage and

with the ability to perform it properly
and gracefully.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
!. i. !. i. = = !. = i. !. 4. !. :, !, :. :. :
Use for Burned Toast.

Crushed toast crumbs would appear
a little bizarre as a cleaning agent
nowadays. To grill slice of bread
until it was scorched, and then to
pound ii in a bowl or a mortar to a
fine powder, was, however, a touch of
economy, which was more than jus
titled when the day came for cleaning
in drawing room or dining room. and
gilt ornaments showed a lack luster
which required attention. Toast crumbs
were rubbed over the metal with a
piece of flannel. The gilt Ornamental
ton was afterward brushed with a
plate brush over the surface, the crumb
brightener being supposed to give a
polish which could not be secured by
any other means.
Labor Saving Kitchen Hint.
If worried with many pans and much
preparation, place a large, clean white
marble in those pans containing milk,
porridge, custard stews or anything
requiring constant stirring. The mar
BILE will roll about with the boiling and
so automatically keeps the liquid stir
ring. All chances of burning will be
prevented, and the fatigue of constant
stirring and bending over a stove will
be avoided.
For Plaster Busts.
These plaster busts so many of us
have around i'm our houses are looking
pretty dingy by this time. perhaps
One woman with success says:
Dip them into thick. cold. liquid
starch: when dry the starch is brushed
off and the dirt comes off with ii. leav-
ing the busts as clean and white as
when new"
A Wise Hint.
Never leave meat wrapped i'm paper
longer than necessary. Paper is mere
ly a compound Of rags. lime, fiber and
chemicals intermixed and therefore
when damp should not touch eatables.
