The Head of Lake Superior.
Duerxw, Minn., Jan. 1882.
EDrroa BacPutterCats:—l ‘ n 1679 Cap
tain John Duluth, an dicier of the
French marine corps, visited the north
shore of Lake Superior. To this fact is
- due the name of the flourishing town
situated at the head of the lake. _ Da
lath lies upon the extreme northwest
coast of Superior. The site is a gentle
hillside. No spot more picturesque
could have been chosen for the location
of a city. Directly in the foreground,
and eztending seven miles in an even
narrowing crescent, is Minnesota Point.
The light hOuse at its extremity is
hardly' to ha discerned by the unaided
vision; but the canal,-s mile from the
mainland, and the accompanying break
water are in dear view. West and
inside of Minnesota Point is the Bay of
Duluth, above a mile in width and
reachir' .g seven or eight miles in a south
easterly direction to the Wisconsin
shore. This is the harbor. 'No where
on the chain of great lakes is there
another harbor poseesing so great
natural advantages. 'Vessele inside of
Minnesota Point are abaolutely secure
from all marine dangers, while the di
mensions of the bay are such as afford
anchoragejor thousands. Next west
comes Rice's Point, a short pardell to
the larger Minnestda. Beyond Rice's
Point is Saonis Bay, the outlet of
the St. Lo4iarriver. At the left of
Minnesota *Taint and reaching to the
eastern horizon is Lake Superior. On
the southeast the visible arm of the
lake is bounded for many miles by the
low lying Wisconsin coast; while, oppo
site, the north shore rises, abrupt and,
precipitous.
Duluth is the county seatof St. Louis
County, Minnesota. For above a quar
ter of a century there have been white
people settled in this locality,_ but it
was not until .1868.9 that the popula
tion
ceased to be sparse. In 1869 the
St. Paul and Duluth railroad was com
pleted. Oue year later Northern
Pacalc trains began running. As this
latter enterprise .was pushed Duluth
grew, so that in 1873 her population
was 5,000. Thee came the panic.
Work on the Northern Pacific stopped,
and it seemed that the "Zenith City"
had received a death blow. In 1878,
• at the end of five-years of -extreme de
pression, Dulath again started, to work
out her destiny as the Mistress -of Su
perior. Nearly four years have since
gone by, frought with marvellous chan
ges. It is my purpose briefly to de-,
scribe Duluth-as she now is, and to add
some aceounta of the industries gathered
at the head of the lake.
The population, within the corpo
rate limits, cannot be stated with exact
ness. No estimate, however, makes
the number less than 6,000. Two thirds
of this total are native born. Of the
one third remaining by far the greater
part is Scandinavian. Then come the
derma° and Canadian French elements.
Ireland and its wrongs have but few
representatives.
Duluth is pre-eminently a business
town. Almost withoht exception the
plain object of its 'citizens is, not to
adorn the street corners and pass hours
in profitless talk. but to work. In all
ordinary branches of business the de
mend exceeds the supply. Hence,
work is sure to reap a reward and, that
to, instantly. During the year just
closed $500,000 have been expended in
building, yet the demand is ever grow
ing. The erection of new buildings is
not stopped by winter. It is steadily
ping on. The "Clark House" burned
its November last. A $lOO,OOO hotel is
tO take its place next summer. ' The
sales and commercial transactions of
•1181, as shown by the bank olear atic es,
k
canted to V 25,186,033.32. This sum
represents simply the receipts. Besides
the ordinary mercantile business ! the
lumber and gran trade are chief em
ployers of capital. There are ten
lumber mills. Last season they sawed
45,000,000 feet of -lumber, 17.000,000
shingles and 5,000,000 bath. The great
er part of this produce is shipped down
the lakes. The present demand much
exceeds the capacity of the mills and,
by 'consequence, new and larger mills
are building. The prospective- log cat
this winter, for next seasons sawing is
150,000,000 feet. These figures may
seem large and some may infer that the
lumber supply must soon be exhausted.
Here, there is no such anticipation
The quantity of accessable pinetimber
is 'retitle:ly calculated at from 3,000,-
000,000, to 5,000,000,000 feet. In ad
dition there are large quantities. of
other woods.
The Elevator statistics show a total of I
3.C84,889 bushels i wleeat shipped in
1881. This is a gain of 75 per cent: on
the wheat shipments of 1880. A third
elevator is in process of constructien.
Thil will increase the storage capacity
to - 2,600,000 bushels. Duluth is much
nearer than any other - point on the
lakes to the wheat-lands',- of Northern
Minnesota, Dakota and Manitoba. In
yield and quality of crop- this section
surpasses all others in North . America.
Lake freights are not halt the normal
railroad charges for transportation!
This traffic belongs to . Duluth and is
coming, as surely as the yiars are
bound to succeed one another. Thus
_ far the Northern Pacific has carried the
wheat. In less than two years we: shall
have another feeder—the Dahath and
Winnipeg. This to run north of the
former, striking the Bed River near
- Crookston, Minn., and thence continu
ing about due north to Winnipeg.
A large force has began work '; at this
end of 'the line and is rapidly pushing
on toward the Mississippi. The road
is controlled by Boston capiteligts,
seeking a short route to the sea-board.
but feeling no obligation to go via
. Chicago.
251,762 acres of land were conveied,
thro l ugh the Land Office, last y&ir.
Custom house teeeipts were something
in excess of $12,000. The post-office
business averaged nearly $l,OOO per
. month. the receipts of the , closing
months being almost double those of
the early part of the year. Many other
kinds of business might be specifically
mentioned. As I have intimated before,
the dealers in the necessiti of life, i. e.
the merchants, the grain Men and
lumber manufacturers, are unquestion
ably making enormous profits. The
magnitude of the mercantile ttansac
, lions may be inferred from the Lusiness
of two well known firms. One of these
reports - aka of groceries and clothing
aggregating sloo,ooo;theother $BO,OOO.
These are not exceptional instances.
The lake traffics is constantly increase
ing. 666 American and foreign vessels
arrived last season, a gain of 151 as
compared with the season of 1880. The
three railroads. the N4rthern Pacific,
the Minneapol4 end St. Louie; end the
St. Paul and D nth, brought to Daz
Lath 862,0000 II lbs. of freight, and
forwarded . 497,.1 11,000 - lb*. to points
south and west.!
Statistics are wearisome and I have
sdready*iven you an unusual amount.
Let me 'add in closing that the coming
'two years, ,in — sO far as human judgment
can determine. are' laden with still
greater material blessings for the little
city at "the head of the lake." Two
years will witness an extensive develop
ment of the wheat country of the
Northwest, now but just began; will
open short routes t to that section; sod
finally will sate completed ithe third
great Mad beltmg the continent. That
road leads to Duluth "the western.
most port of the Atlantic." A future
more prosperous than any yet conceived
e,
awaits the "Z i nith City.".

A correspondent in the Turf, Field
and Farm, writing from North Carolina,
says: I hear there are a goodly number
of Democratic darkeys in the South, bat
have not yet found any. .They aro Re
publican to a man, and the darkey who
has the courage to - vote the , s•raight
Democratic ticket at a regular election
must have considerable back-bone. I
heard a good story illustrating the feel
ing, among them toward what they tall
a "traitor." In one of the villages they
have two darkey churches, a Methodist
and a Baptist, and there had been a
strong contest athong.them as to which
church should have the strongest mem
bership. They , had taken about All the
colored people within a radius of sev
eral niiles, and in their rivalry had: not
been very particular as to the character
of some of the new members. At last
one Jack Skinner, a desperate hard
case, proclaimed his intentions of join
ing the Baptist Church. He had vio
lated-all the Commandments several
times. but some of the leaders of the
church decided that 'they could
pray off all his sins, and concluded to
let him in on his promise to acknowl
-
edge all .his numerous transgressions.
ft took several nights to draw them all
out, and a heap of hard praying to wash
them off: Some of his confessions caus
ed scandal, involving more or less the
character of the 'sistering' of the flock.
But the elders were bouid to have his
whole record.
At last he said he had "lessed" all
his sins but one, and ho feared that was
an unpardonable sin that- they would
n ever forgive. • The elders 'told him.
must come out, and assured him that
they would - pr4y it off. He was ' very
reluctant. and after laboring over him
several hours,' the old boss elder got
impatient, and gave Jack a cuff beside
the head, and said: "See heah, yer,
we can't:fool wid you all night. Out
wid it! out wid it!" At last poor Jack
faltered out that in the late election he
had voted ;the Democratic ticket.
This was too much. They could pray
off all . of his sins bat that. As
_soon as he made his confession there
yeas general yell of execration and a
rush forlim from all quarters, and Jack
had to mike a break for the woods to
save his carcass, said has never been
seen in that part of - tike country since.-
THE OLDEST WO/ , ‘leli IN Waimea.=
Taman Brooks, whia visited the Cot*
Exposition the other day, is possibly
the oldest colored woman, if not thA
oldest person, in _America, having
reached the remarkable age of 128 years.
She was born in Roanoke county, Vir
ginia. in 1758, as is showri in the Bible
record of the family of Thomas Yancey.
She was the property of William
Yancey, and at the time of his death
was given to his S3ll, Thomas Yancey,
for a house servet. At the death of
Thomas Yancey she was transferred to
one of the legatees of the estate. Aria
Tamah is the wither of seventeen chil
dren, all of whom reached maturity.
Her baby Pon, who attends her, is an
old white-haired man, 69 years old.--
