REACHES PEWABIC HULK.
Toledo Inventor Brings Up Por-
tions of Vessel From Depth
= of Thirty Fathoms.

On the night of August 9, 1865,
two years over half a century ago,
the steamer Pewabic sank in Lake
Superior after being rammed by
the steamer Meteor. The scene of
the accident was seven miles off
Thunder Island in 80 fathoms OF
water. About 125 lives were lost
as we'll as a valuable cargo of
copper.
Several attempts have been
made to salvage the cargo, with
out success. About the middle of
June the wreck of the vessel was
located by soundings. In the
afternoon Of June &c, Benjamin
Leavitt of Toledo, Ohio, attired on
a novel diving suit of his own in
vention, descended to the depth
of $50 feet and remained down
half an hour. He not only es-
tablished the positive indemnity of
the bulk but brought up portion
of the bulwark Of the vessel, some
scroll work and a stuffed Amer
lean eagle from the cabin.
At the present price of ingot
copper, the metal in that old hulk
on the bottom of Lake Superior
is worth close to $1,000,0OO.

average man retained the idea
that this blowing was under the
auspices Of the city, at cost.
A Lakeside citizen had rs feet
Of vacant ground on which he
wished to plant potatoes. He
found out where and how to
order a team. One day a little
span Of mules and a driver, be-
longing to Col. John Uno
Sebenius, came along and did the
work in not less than four nor
more than five hours.
In due course, bill in the
sum Of $3.50 came along for the
blowing, said bill being on sta,
tionery bearing this head, viz:

The homecrofter, who consid-
cred 81 a liberal price for that
work, sought out the foregoing
place and, after wrangling and
some rather crusty words from
one Mattocks, settled in the sum
of $3.50.
On a 10-hour basis, Col. John
Uno Sebenius little mules and
man earned at the rate Of SIS
a day. On an 8-hour basis, they
toiled and sweat at the rate of
$12 day.
In and around Duluth, Sc a
day is near the top price for a
days work by a man and span
of little mules.
Other patrons Of this patriotic
"Garden Committee, Duluth

the height Of the charges. Many
still think that the City of Du-
luth is responsible, therefore try.
ing to make money out Of a
so-called patriotic and semi
philanthropic undertaking. Pa
triotism is as profitable for some
as it is Improbable for others.
