6 ROUTES TO LAKE SUPERIOR. 



THE ROUTE to MARaUETTE, on Lake Superior is, except 

 twelve miles, entirely over the CHICAGO & NORTH-WESTERN 

 RAILWAY The twelve miles referred to is between Negaunee 

 and Marquette, and belongs to the MARQ,UETTE, HOUGHTON 

 & ONTONAGON RAILWAY Along this route the traveler 

 passes through Milwaukee, Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Neenah, Me- 

 nasha, Appleton, Green Bay, Oconto, Marinette, Menomonee, Es- 

 canaba and Negaunee. 



THE ROUTE via the MILWAUKEE, LAKE SHORE <& 

 WESTERN is properly from Milwaukee, but passengers from Chi- 

 cago traverse the intervening distance over the CHICAGO & 

 NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY, as all trains connect and no 

 change of depots is necessary. The M. L. S. & W. is now completed 

 to within a very few miles of Lake Superior, and it is expected to 

 be running into Ashland soon after navigation opens. 



Over this route one passes through the cities of Sheboygan, 

 Appleton and New London. Then the line runs nearly parallel with 

 the course of the Upper Wisconsin River for many miles, and almost 

 taps its very source at Lac Vieux Desert. From thence it follows a 

 westerly course, diverging a little to the north till Montreal River 

 and Ashland are reached. 



There is another route to Lake Superior somewhat longer than 

 the others, but often used when the traveler desires to visit St. 

 Paul and vicinity en route. The route referred to is the ST. PAUL 

 & DULUTH RAILWAY, from St. Paul to Duluth, the traveler 

 having previously traveled from Chicago over either of the "trunk 

 lines" so called, between the two cities. 



The only through WATER ROUTE from Chicago to Lake 

 Superior points is that of the LAKE MICHIGAN AND LAKE 

 SUPERIOR TRANSPORTATION COMPANY.
