burn is being torn down this
week by Ben Berglund who
purchased the same from Cap
tain William O'Neil. The lum.
Der from the building will be
used for building purposes.
The O'Neil building was built

To Beautify Place

Last week we announced that
g. G. Gray of Watertown. North
Dakota, had purchased the place
owned by w. F. Flint, east of
this city. We have since learn
ed that it is Mr.. Gray's intention
to clear up the entire piece of
ground and to beautify the place.
The place will be cleared this
fall and next spring and more
fruit trees and shrubbery will
be set out. The plot of ground
in front of the residence will be
turned into a lawn and flower
garden, while the rest of the
plot will be used for fruit,
berries and garden purposes.
Mr.. Flint from whom the place
was purchased, will look after
the work to be done and will re-
main on the place until next
summer or fall. Mr.. Gray will
then look after the place.
The land purchased by Mr..
Gray lies along the Houghton
road a half mile east of the old
town hall and will make a beauti.
full place as it is along the prin-
cipal drive between this city and
Bayfield,. The soil is a sand
loan with a clay subsoil and
ideal for farming and fruit
growing. 1t lies with the slope
toward the lake insuring fine
drainage which is essential for
fruit growing.

The Bay field Scoot ran into a
street car at the intersection of
Second street and the tracks at
Ashland Sunday morning and
that no one was killed is a
miracle. Mrs. August Solberg
residing just east of the race
track was severely injured, her
leg being fracturedln twoplaces.
The accident occurred about
ten o'clock and there were four
passenger on the street car in
charge of Motorman August

trip from the cemetery. He
saw the Scoot coming when it
was too late and the engine hit
the car and turned it over on it's
side. The motorman and all the
passengers jumped and Mrs.

able to muster up enough votes
to entitle them to a place on the

ever. came to the rescue and
BON tickets will be found on the
b4ll t at the General election.

Stars of the Log Rolling Pro
fession Gave Fine
Exhibition.

George Glacier the local log
roller, returned from Chippewa
Falls yesterday afternoon where
he participated in a log rolling
contest for the championship of
the world. The event was staged
at Half Moon Lake near Chippewa
Falls on Monday and drew
thousands of persons from all
parts of the Northwest who were
interested in the contests.
Sixteen of the most noted log
rollers in the world participated
in the match which lasted during
the entire day. The event was
arranged so that the log rollers
rolled in pairs, the poorest in this
manner being eliminated. Gla-
cier of this city managed to out
roll every other log roller, ex-
cepting William Dalyrae of Clo-
quet, who won over Glacier and
was declared Champion of the
World.
This last contest was interest
ing. The log which had been
used during the entire day and
from which other log rollers
were put into the water, proved
to be too heavy for Glacier and
Dalyrae and an agreement was
entered and the log was shorten
ed four feet in order to make it
more speedy. After this was
done, Dalyrae, who was the light
er of the two, put Glacier into
the water in seventeen minutes.
The Chippewa Falls papers
give Glacier great credit for the
showing he made at the contest.

A Wild Runaway

A young team owned by Henry
Hochdanner of the town of Bay
view, made a wild run down Bay
field street yesterday morning,
but aside from badly damaged
harness no other damage was
done. The dash made by the
team was interesting to watch
for some very close calls were
had. The team was being driven
by Henry Hochdanner, Jr. He
had stopped in front Of the Corn
ing grocery store and had entered
the store to make purchase
when the team started off down
the street. Running seemed to
be poor in the middle of the
street for the horses took to the
sidewalk somewhere between 1st
avenue east and Central avenue.
The team continued down the
walk until they reached the
corner of End avenue west when
they again took the road. This
course was followed until the
team reached the Hansen store
when they went unto the side
walk again and continued until
they ran into a telephone post
near the Posey store on the cor
ner of Washington avenue.
When the horses hit the pole
they went right through their
harnesses and were stopped out
on the avenue, neither horse be-
ing scratched in the least. The
harness was badly damaged but
the wagon was but slightly in
jured.
1t is a wonder that persons
were not injured in the runaway.
Several little fellows were picked
up by men along the street which
perhaps prevented injury to
them.

Huburt Ell. Peavey Of this city
who was a candidate for Lieuten.
ant Governor at the primaries
held last Tuesday, made good
run throughout the state and
for time when the early re-

been elected.
Numerous things worked to
the disadvantage of the Wash.

he made fine run.
