out further interruption. The
Mcdonald car was brought to
the city during the evening and
repaired.
On Wednesday morning bright
and early the board took up
their journey again, going
across country to the Boulevard
road in the town of Oulu. This
road connects with no part of
the county system and it is to
be abandoned by the board. The
county board has appropriated
$500 to be expended on this road
and it is badly in need of it, but
when this work is done Oulu has
agreed to have it taken off the
county system. The town of
Oulu now has taken teams at
work on the west end of the
Wannebo road connecting with
this road.
Going back a distance on the
Boulevard road a cut across
country was made to the Iron
River-Muskeg road. This road
is 26 feet wide and is in good
condition with the exception of
a few places where sand is heavy
and the road is being barked.
bitches are also being widened
in places.
The board arrived at Iron
River at noon where dinner was
enjoyed after the morning trip.
Leaving Iron River immedi-
ately after dinner the board pro-
ceeded south in the direction of
the town of Barnes. This road
which runs through the
towns of Iron River, Hughes and
Barnes, is a winding road but in
good condition for travel. The
road in the town of Barnes is eX-
ceptionally good. This road runs
through a sandy country and
rain and wet weather have no
effect on the roads but tend to
make them better.
A short stop was made at
George Barnes place at Barnes
in order to give the engines time
to cool off a bit when the journey
was resumed. 1t was raining
q ute hard at this time and the
rain continue until Cable was
reached. The roadleading from
Barnes to Cable, through the
townsofD ru mmOnd and Gable,
is one of the finest in the county.
This road runs through sandy
country and water has little
effect on the road bed.

with others at the Red Dam on

pond. The situation wore a serious
look, for no male rescuer was pres :

herself equal to the emergency,
promptly jumping in and bringing
her struggling and terribly fright

Rev. Alexander McMullen, new
pastor of the Presbyterian church

Sunday he preached the Memorial
sermon at the union services held in

Mullen has moved his belongings in
to the manse on First street. He
still is lacking of the greatest thing
needful in home-making-a wife
but that is lack which may in due
season be remedied. In the mean
time Rev. McMullen will maintain
batchelor quarters in the manse,
taking his meals elsewhere.

ANOTHER CAME
FOR The CLUB
Ashland Defeated by Beers
Club Sunday
Game Run up in Scores but
was an Interesting
Contest

Another victory was added to
the F. T. Beers Club of the
Northwestern Interstate league
in the game played on the
grounds in this city last Sunday
afternoon with the Ashland
team.
The Ashland boys lead the
game until the seventh inning
by score of z to a when the
Beers Club boys began hammer
ing the ball over the lot and dur
ing this frame added six runs to
their side of the score sheet. In
the eighth frame they pounded
the ball again for three more
runs, winning the game by the
score of 10 to z.
The game was a good one
throughout and was witnessed
by a large aggregation of base
ball fans from Ashland and
Washburn.
During the past week the
Powder boys have been playing
better ball and they are now
among the top notchers of the
league and it begins to look as
if that team would be the pen
nant winners for the season.
Manager Pratt of the team
says that his boys will improve
as the season advances and
some real league base ball will
be witnessed from this time on.

Arriving at Cable the cars

Arriving at Cable the cars
were put away for the night and
the boys made their way to
places where they were to dine
and spend the night. The peo-
pie of Cable used the board
members very Hospitality. In
the evening short meeting of
the board was held in the new
Cable Town Hall.
A resolution was introduced
and passed providing that the
amount of the income tax be
placed in the road fund for use
as the committee on roads and
bridges may deem advisable.
The part of the resolution pro-
viding that a specific amount be
placed on the road between
Washburn and Ashland was
killed.
The board passed resolutions
thanking the good people OF
Port Wing and Gable for their
hospitality and also extended
their thanks to the good people
along the route.
This morning the board start.
ed out from Gable to finish up
the balance of their trip. The
road north lead through the
towns of Gable, Drummond,
Kelly. Mason, Eileen Barksdale
and Washbnrn.
The road from Gable to Drum
mond is in fine condition and the
same is true of the north road,
with the exception of piece of
road near Forest City where a
swamp is crossed. About three
thousand dollars will have to be
expended to put this piece in
fine condition.
The roads north are in good
shape. with the exception of the
pieces where work is being done.
This road runs through clay
country and is not in the best
shape after a rain but the town
chairmen of the towns enroute
keep their road drags busy and
the roads soon dry up.
Some work is also oeing done
on the Ashland Washburn road
and this road is not as good as
it might be.
The trip has been a hard one
but the embers feel that they
have gained a good knowledge
of the road system as result.
When road matters come up at
the next meeting of the board
the members will be prepared to
vote intelligently for they now
have first hand knowledge of
road conditions.
