Lake Superior. It ie noted for ire fine
residences, its fiue streets, beantiful
lawns, wealth and social advantages,
and is known as being the gateway to the
great iron mines of the Northwest. The
immense ore docks are the first novel

booming mere popular every year.
Presque Island is a Paris similar to
"Belle Isle" of Detroit. Some of its
rook formations are not unlike those of
Maokinao island. We leave here at 6 p, m.
After winding through the crooked chan-
elwhioh cote off the voyage around
n
eKeewenan Point," we enter Portage
lake, whim yellowbrown
water proves
that we are nearing the greatest oopper
mines in the world, of whioh no adequate
description can be given in limited space.
While we were passing through this lake
we met an excursion boat filled with boys
and girls, who are not inferior to any
other class when giving vent to their
vocal organs. After leaving the lake we
enter Portage river wbicb is 20 miles
long from Portage lake to Portage chan-
nel. At 1.40 p. m. we see Grose Point
where we nottoe the copper smelting
works. Dollar Bay is the next point we
come to, whioh is about two miles frons
Grose Point. In Dollar Bay we have
smelting works, caw mills, copper wire
mills, &o. On the dodge are huudreds of
barrels filled with copper palled ingot.
We see also great piles of ofuders whioh
is the residue of the ore minus the cop.
per. Blooks of oopper of various forms
and weight are piled along thedooks here.
We remained at tbie place about one
hoar and a half, ample time to allow os
to go through the smelting and copper
wire works. I also noticed on the docks
several hundred iron barrels of glycerine,
which is used in the powder mill for
manufaoturing nitro•glyoerine. At the
mines the copper is washed and stamped
and then shipped in barrels to the smelt-
ing works, where it is made into bare and
blocks of different sizee and shapes.
After leaving this port, we aeon see
Ripley to our right, the Miobigao mining
eohool to the left, also the Quincy mine
to our righb. The eoenery along here is
simply grand. In some of the mines the
miners descend about one mile. These
miners can only work for four hours and lot 20, on •Lad ling, cleaned out. On motieu

picturesquely situated, with enormous
hills, from the apex of which numerous
mines belch forth smoke and fire, lighting
up the landscape et night with weird
glow and make a wild and romantic
bank ground for the two thriving cities,
which nestle at their feet. 47 years ago
the first settlers entered this country on
the old "John Jacob Actor" .and an ace
