he hoped that, so far as possible, all
persons in the city will observe the
day.
Dan Corning, who is president of
the Pioneer Association and who is
head of the Committee on Arrange
ments has all arrangements made
with the weather man for a perfect
day on August l4th, and with fine
weather everybody should have
good time.
During the past week hundreds of
letters have gone out to former
Washburnites asking them to be here
on that day and already replies have
been received from many to the effect
that we are coming" A general
invitation is extended to the people
of Ashland, Bayfield, and the towns
throughout Bayfield, county, especial
ly the old residents of these places,
to Join with the people of Washburn
in the event.
The committee on arrangements is
working hard preparing their program
for the day. At the noon hour there
will be a mammoth parade from the
city to the Picnic Grounds where the
picnic dinner will be served. 1t is
estimated that more than two thous-
and people will attend the picnic.
Following the picnic dinner there
will be speaking by well known
orators, singing, band music, etc. and
this will be followed with races and
games in which the old and young
will participate. There will be ball

sports, and other pastimes and amuse-
ments.

the pine groves for the older people
who desire to sit around and visit and
there will also be amusements for the
children.
People of the city are beginning to
prepare for the event and on that
day, aside from the policeman and
watchman, all others will be at the
picnic grounds.
1t is y day on which business and
troubles should be forgotten and all
should join in the festivities and
make the picnic an epoch in the city s
history.

had spread is practically all parts OF
the plant.
The Iron River mill had been Oper-
ated by the Hines Company for
number of years. being purchased
by that concern from the Alexander
Edgar people. The mill was modern
throughout, having been practically
rebuilt by the Hines people.
The mill has been operating night
and day. On Thursday night one of
the big shaft gears in the mill broke
down and the plant was shut down
temporarily until the break could be
repaired. 1t was to have resumed
operations on Monday morning.
There was enough timber on hand
at the time of the fire to run the
plant for several months, when oper-
ations would have ceased, SO it is
said. 1t is estimated that there was
four million feet of timber in the pond
and this will have to be removed to
one of the other plants of the COM
pany.
1t is said that the mill was insured
for $2S, 900 which will only cover a
very small part of the loss, as it is
said to have cost over 500, 900.
The loss of this mill will be keenly
felt by the people of Iron River as
the plant furnished employment for a
large number of men.
