The End of Strikes.

One notable effect of the war in
England IL reflected in the labor
world. Though employment is good,

FAIR DECIDED SUCCESS
In Spite Of Bad Weather the Exhibits
Were Good, Especially Live Stock
Best Of Order Maintained and
Not a Single Arrest.

NOT a Slngle ATTEST.
Thursday and Friday of last week
were about as unfriendly days for hold
ing the county fair as could we'll have
been selected and as result the agri-
cultural exhibits, especially, were far
from being up to what they were last
year and not half what they would
have been had the weather been favor
able.
By Saturday morning weather lndi-
cations were much more favorable and
the dayEdeveloped into all that could be
asked. As result the live stock ex-
hlbit vas almost up to what was shown
last year, but nothing near what it
would have been. had the first two days
of the fair been favorable. The domes-
tic science department suffered to some
extent also from the bad weather as
the larger part of the exhibits were
confined to citizens OF Crossville and
vicinity.
The showing in the domestic art de-
partment was more nearly up to last
year than any other department.
There was one addition in that the Har-
riman city schools had very credit
able showing OF work done by the
students. While it did not equal what
the High school showed 1t was very
creditable considering that the art de
partment of the Hartman schools is
only in its second year.
Throughout the entire three days
there was not single arrest made by
Marshal Eowery or -hls Deputies. One
gentleman from distance was heard
to rem ark that it was the most orderly
and we'll behaved crowd he had ever
seen at county fair. Here marked on
the tact that he had not seen single
man who showed any indications of be-
ing under the influence of intoxlcants
nor did he even so much as smell
whiskey once during his stay here.
Not the usual amount of stock chang
ed hands, but Prof. j. E. Brandon, of
Clltty, was here with very excellent
mare and colt, which he sold to E. P.
Melvne and ]. R. Mitchell at hand
some price.

A GOOD FAIR.

The county fair held last week was a
success. Except for a temperature a
trifle too low on Thursday the condi-
tious were ideal. The races, three on
Wednesday and = like number on
Thursday, gave general satisfaction.
There were some close brushes at the
wire and only one or two Of them were
won in straight heats. Local horses
did not fare well. There was some
Disappointment over the calling off of
the motor races. 1t was said that many
people came only to see the advertised
automobile races. The attendance is
said to have been about the same as in
1914 and this will probably prevent a
deficit. 1t was good fair worthy of
the cooperation of the public which it
received

MANIT0W0C AT CITY MEET.

Manitowoc was CONSPICUOUS at the
annual meeting Of the Wisconsin Nun
icipal League at Green Bay las, week.
Alderman Georgenson was elected one
of the district vice presidents for the
ensuing year. Thursday Mayor Stole
read a pager on Manitowocs expert
euce in Municipal ownership and gave
a glowing account of the success of the
municipal water and electric utilities
here. He gave resume Of the diff
culties of acquisition and management
and urged the purchase of the gas and
telephone utilities. The main argu-
ment was for the use of profits OF the
plants to help in municipalizing other
utilities and ultimately service from all
at cost. He was heckled at some
length and stood TO his guns. A num-
ber of the officials visited the High
Falls power plant and saw Diesel en-.
gines at Appleton before returning

FIFTY YEARS AGO.

THE VILLAGE OF ESCANABA.-E
cry oody hel eabouts have heard of Es-
canada, but as few know where and
what it is, we will let Mr.. Mills, of the
Sheboygan journal, give US the desired
information. He tells us that-"On
Saturday evening last we embarked on
the fine steamer Sea Bird, Capt. S. W.
Morgan, for flying visit to the much
spoken Of embryo city of Escanaba, ar
riving there, after pleasant run. on
Sunday afternoon. This place is a
bran new one in every sense Of the
expression. 1t is the county seat OF
Delta county, Michigan. Is pleasantly
situated on Little Bay de Noe, which
affords a most splendid natural harbor.
A large number of new buildings are
being erected, intended for stores,
dwelling houses, etc. The Peninsula
Railroad, starts from there, running
now to Marquette, but ultimately to
run to some point on the southern shore
of Lake Superior There is a telegraph
line on this road, which will shortly
connect with one from Green Bay,
which will put Escanaba in telegraph
connection with the rest of the world
This peninsula has, also, quite extern
sive locomotive machine shops at Us
canada AS we'll as extensive trestle
work with shuIeS for loading vessels
with copper and iron ore, at the termi-
nation OF "a branch of the road, which
is SAID to have cost 100000. There
are also several stores, work shops,
saw mill, a dozen or fifteen saloons, etc,
but, as yet neither school, school
these viii all come in their turn. Also
"a new hotel, the T!lden House, four
story building, we'll built, convenient
ly arranged, handsomely and comtorta-
bly furnished, and kept in tlp-top style
-aifording the traveller at all times a
pleasant and comfortable home, and one
he will be sure to visit every time he
re-vists the place.
"We see no reason why Escanaba,
in the course of three or four years,
should not become city of no inconsi-
derable importance in business point
of view. Its railroad and capacious
harbor, with the national improvements
of the country surrounding il, will
make it such.

IIANOTHER FATAL COLLISION.

Mrs. Jam IS Spffren was run down by
a motorcycle on south Tenth street last
Thurst az and sustained injuries from
which she died at the Holy Family
hospital Saturday morning. Mrs. Suf-
fren and lady companion undertook
to cross Tenth street in the middle OF
the block between Washington and
Hancock streets. John Schneider, OF
south 18th street approaching from the
south on motorcycle tried to avoid
the two women. They stopped, be-
came confused and the motorcycle
struck Mrs. Suffren. She, was thrown
down violently and received fatal in
iuries. A coroners jury Monday exon
Grated the driver from all blame for
accident. He was severely shaken up
but not seriously injured. Mrs. Stuff
rep is survived by her husband but no
children. She was sixty years OF age
and has ong been a respected resident
of the city. The funeral was held
Monday from the Sacred Heart Church
to Evergreen cemetery.

DRY DOCK BUSY.

The Dry Dock Company has begun
work on two ferries and two lighters
for the Erie railroad. The two ferries
are to be steel boats and will cost S35
600 and the lighters are wooden boats
and will cost about $l5,0 Neither OF
them has its own power and they are
for use between terminals at Chicago.
These craft with The new Goodrich
Nevada in course of construction are
keeping the ship yards busy. 1t is ex-
pected that the hull of the Nevada
will be ready to take to the water in a
month. There is belief that the Ne
vada will be finished as passenger
steamer instead of package freighter
as originally planned. Manitowoc is
lucky to have this great industry run
ming full blast as work is nearly at a
standstil at nearly all Great Lakes
shiuyards.

year the club has been run by a com
mittee OF young men, members OF the
club, who took over the management
when the older directors decided that

KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT.

At IL O'Clock last Sunday evening
John Gustafson, who was driving a
Ford car, collided with buggy driven
by Ernst Landt Of The Town of Two
Rivers. The collision took place in
front of the Catholic cemetery and from
appearances the auto rolled over and
Gustafson was crushed beneath IT.. The
buggy was demolished and the horse
ran away, but the occupants were un-'
injured.
Gustafson. who resided 10 this city
for about year, held position as
platter at the Plating works. He was
10 move his household belongings TO
Milwaukee and make the trip to that
city in his car with his wife on Mon
day. In the evening he met Tom Vet
lin, a friend whom he had promised to
give an auto ride before leaving. The
two started toward Mishicot for "A ride.
Netlin says he remembers nothing of
the accident except that he was thrown
from the machine. He was unconscious
for some zine and seemed TO lose his
mind, and he ran several blocks from
the scene before he realized where he
was. When Gustafson was found his
body was lying in the middle of the
road. His bead was so badly crushed
that he could not be identified at first.
The auto turned completely around
and was heading in the opposite direc-
tion from which it was gong at the
time it struck the buggy. 1t is thought
that Gustafson was driving at high

The windshield Of the auto was brok-
en- off and the tenders and wheels
were badly broken and it is thought
that GustafSon's head was crushed by
the windshield when the car rolled
over. Other parts of the body were
badly bruised. The coroner and dis
trict attorney were in the city to in
vestigate the accident.
Gustafson was 40 years Of age and
was married, but had no children. Mr..

Swedish society came here to take
