Mail Route Inspector Visits
Eagle River Last Week for
Purpose of Establishing
Marine Route.

NJ. +. Bum, inspector of rural
mail routing, came to Eagle Riv-
er last Friday from Washington,
for the purpose of determining
the feasibility of establishing a
marine rural mail delivery on the
lower chain of lakes.
With a mileage of thirty-fve
miles on the chain, and with over
a hundred patrons to deliver to,
there is no doubt but that this
route will be put in commission
this summer for a four months
period.
Mr.. Bum stated TO a News rep
resentative that bids will be ask
ed for this route very soon, and
contract let for the delivery of
mail for the above period.

EIGHTEEN FAMILIES
Indiana Contingent Forming
Colony of Home-makers in
Spectacle Lake District.

Eighteen families from Indiana
came all the way from that state
to the garden spot of Wisconsin
Villas county, if you please) for
the purpose of settling on farm
land in the neighborhoOd of Spec
tacle lake, six miles southeast of
the village of Phelps, and about
twenty miles from Eagle River.
The families had purchased
their land prior to this year. and
they made the distance from In
diana here in cars this past week.
Until some of their buildings are
erected they will rent houses in
the near neighborhood. Several
are now occupying the SanboTn
summer home on Eagle thorough
fare.
A big consignment of new
home-makers also arrived last
week from the mining sections
and have purchased farms in the
making. The year 1922 promises
to be big one in land develop
ment in the county. Lake from
tage is also changing hands very
rapidly.

BROKE THROUGH ICE
MIR. and Mrs. Ernest Alton of
Sayner While Crossing
Plum Lake Had Narrow
Escape From Drowning.

An exceedingly narrow escape
from drowning happened on Plum
lake last Saturday to Mr.. and Mrs.
Ernest Alton, and but for immed-
late assistance from members of
the Frank Long family, they
would have persisted.
In crossing the lake from the
village side TO their home across
Plum lake, both Mr.. and Mrs. AL
ton broke through the ice when
about four hundred feet from
shore. Their cries were heard by
members TO the Frank Long fam
lily and a boat pushed out to
them over the weakened ice. Re
ports yesterday from Sayner say
that no i'll effects have resulted
from the icy bath to Mr.. and
Mrs. Alton.
The ice in all of the lakes in
this region is now decidedly un-
safe and it Is reported that many
people are taking hazardous
chances every day in crossing the
lakes. The ice is very rotten and
many of the lakes will free
themselves of ice within a few
days.
In the meantime precaution
should be taken. especially to
those who permit their children
20 use the lakes in walking to
and from school.

Chicago to Eagle River, they re-
port the highways as being IN
fine condition for this time of the
year. They were south for a per-
iod of five months, but like all
the other wanderers from the
Northland, were decidedly pleased
to return to the land which has
no equal.

AUGUST WE'LL PASSES
Died Monday Afternoon
Business Citizen of Eagle
River for Eighteen Years.

From a complication of ills, the
death of August We'll occurred
Monday afternoon at five o'clock.
His death had been expected for
some days past, and his passing
moments were peaceful.
For a period of eighteen years
August We'll had been identified
in business in Eagle River, oper-
ating a meat market on the start,
later adding a stock of select
fruits and groceries. This bust
ness he conducted personally I'M
til early this winter when his
health necessitated his retiring
from active labor. The greater
portion of the winter had been
spent in Chicago and other points
seeking relief from physical ills,
but very little relief could be Sc
cured.
The funeral will be held to-
morrow afternoon at one o'clock
from the Episcopal church, Rev.
FIR. Grey of Peoria, Illinois, con-
Quoting. Interment will be made
in the village cemetery.
August We'll was born fifty
eight years ago at Weilmuenster,
Germany. Came to America in
1882, settling in Chicago. He en-
barked into the meat business in
Chicago. operating a market in
that city until in 1904 when he
removed to Eagle River and es-
tablished himself and family. In
1890 he was united in marriage
to Miss Marie Elizabeth Fix, a
resident of Chicago. To them
were born four children, three
now surviving; Rose, Albert and
Harry, all at home.
Mr.. We'll was a lover of the big
Outdoors, and his favorite pas
time prior to his illness was to
secure the companionship of some
crony and drive to a lake or
stream and ply the art of the
disciple of Sir Izaak Walton. His
greatest chum in years gone by
was the late Arthur Mckenzie.
They both loved the wiidneSs, the
wods, the waters. During the
summer they were deep compan-
ions both in the woods or on some
lake or stream. Their fund of
humor was what cemented a life
long friendship. After the death
of Mr.. Mckenzie, Mr.. We'll often
said that his best pleasures had
ceased, and it was not often that
he shouldered his gun or carried
his fishing rod and tackle. May
his journey over the long, long
trail be peaceful.

ton of these buildings by the

cago men, while Mr.. Marsh is a

him mixed up with Mr.. I.emke, q

Anyhow, quite a crowd Of leaguers

When he arrived in the little old Ford
there was a deep and sick silence
among the assembled leaguers.
Then one Of the number gave voice

publican senator, and the practical
breaking down. OF old party lines be-.
