Seventh-Day Advent
lists Set High Mark.

One million dollars for missions dur
ing the next four years is the goal sci
for the Sabbath-schools of the Seventh
Day Adventists. This word has just
been received by the Seventh Day Ad
ventist Sabbath school here in letter
from Mrs. L. Flora Plummer of Wash
ington, D. C.. of the general Sabbath
school department for that denomina-
tion. Mrs. plummer writes as follows
"Our summary for the last quarter
is startling. 1t reached the splendid
total of $50, 728. the largest we have
ever had. 1t makes the total for
three quarters $165, 135. When the
returns are in for the last quarter we
shall go way ahead of our goal, which
was $500, 900 for the year 1912. We are
a little tired of having to change our
goal every few months, and also
ashamed of it's being buried beneath
the surface so deep that we hate to dig
it out. We have decided, therefore, to
set goal covering 1913 to 1916, of a
million dollars from our Sabbath
schools in four years. Pass on the
news as soon as you like to your school,
for tell you we sare lcounting on your
state to help in this proposition. Judg-
ing from past reports, we shall not be
disappointed"
The local superintendent has also
heard from the governing body con-
cerning the rapid growth of Seventh
Day Adventists in foreign fields. The
letter says doctor Riley Russell
reports that God is working nightly
in Korea. He himself baptized ninety
two persons last summer, organized
two churches, and three more were
nearly ready for organization when he
wrote. He says, "In the four years
during which we have been here We
have seen over 10000 patients. The
people know nothing of Infection; but
in the old heather mind all disease is
wind in the bones or some other part
of the anatomy, and it must be let out.

Notes Concerning
Our New Saw-Mill.

Andrew Nelson, of Houghton, who
has the contract for erecting the steel
boiler house for the Marshall Buffers
Lumber Company, started work Tues
day. The structure will be 45x53 feet
and so feet in height.
The three Wickes water tube boilers
each having capacity of 250 h. p.,
were set last Friday and they are con-
sidered by experts to be the best boil
ers on the market, having a great ca
pacity for steam and being very econ
omical on fuel.
AS soon as the piles are driven for
the lumber dock. it will be rapidly put
in condition for use. The long, un-
slightly trestle which connects the mills
and lumber docks in all parts of the
country will be done away with, the
management having decided on the
novel idea of running railroad from
the sorting room to the end of the
dock, small steam switch engine do
ing the shifting. This feature has the
advantage of allowing the lumber to
dry more uniformly, the tramways hav-
ing the tendency of keeping the lumber
nearest to it damp.
The piling for the log slide was driv-
en- last Saturday.
Both bands are placed, tracks laid
for the carriages, the engine connec-
tions made and the mammoth fly wheel
is in position.
Next week. weather permitting, the
concrete work for the smoke stack will
be done and the stack erected as soon

Erasmus D. Newton Died Last Satur'
day at Keween4w Bay, at the
ASefof 49 Years.

Erasmus d. Newton, one of the stur-
dy and oldest pionefrs of this northern
country and one of the few remaining
links of the past. died at the home OF
his daughter at keweenaw Bay last
Saturday. He came to the upper pen
in 1854, landing at Ontonagon.
Mr.. Newton made his home for the
past four years at Keweenaw Bay with
an unmarried daughter, Miss Amy
Newton, postniistress at that place. He
died at this home at the age of 79 years
and six msntfas. His wife preceded him
June 10, 1907. His surviving children
are Miss Amy and Mrs. d. J. Lawler
of Keweenaw Bay. Frank of Anyox, B.
C. and William of Grand Rapids.
The funeral took place Wednesday
morning at Holy Name church, ASSN
ins, Rev Msgr. Faust officiating
ERASMUS D. Newton was born In
CornisH N. H., August "a, 1888, and
left th4t place in 1854 with o. W. Rob-
inson If Chassell to come to the, upper
peninsula. From Mr.. Robinson are OBJ
tained these data of his life. Mr.. New
ton game to the upper peninsula to con-
strVct road from the American land
inG to Norwich mine in Gogebic coun-
ty. He later went to the National
rhine as a surface boss and in the year
that the Calumet & Hecla was opened
he went to Calumet to enter the en-
ploy of that mine. He was the first
proprietor of the present Calumet ho-
tel in the Calumet & Hecla location
and while en- -aged in operating this ho-
tel conducted teaming contracting
business. Mr.. Newton was married in
Marquette Nov. a, 1867.
The railroad was completed from
Michigamme to L'Anse in 1874 and
that year Mr.. Newton left Calumet for
L'Anse, where he was employed by the
M. H. & o. railroad, after which he
took up farm on the road between
Houghton and L'Anse, conducting
there halfway house. He also did
teaming contracting. His farm home
eventually became the center of a
small settlement then and now known
as Newtonvile. He continued to live
there till four years ago, when he re-
tired to make his home with his daugh-
ter at Keweenaw Bay. Some time af-
ter he left the old place nearly all of
the building was destroyed by fire.
During the early years of his resi-
dence at Newtonville Mr.. Newton en-
joyed very lucrative contract. In
those days all of the fresh beef used in
the copper country was brought in on
the hoof, by rail to L'Anse and thence
in to the copper country dealers by
their own power. Mr.. Newton held the
contract to deliver the cattle to the
copper country. He was prominently.
connected with the development of
Baraga county in his years of active
life and he is remembered by many old
friends as an active businessman,
good citizen and good friend.
