(brook) streams. To the invalid or tourist, 
needing a few weeks’ recreation, we recom- 
mend them by all means to seek the pure air 
and splendid climate in and around the fair 
city of Marquette. Sailing over the broad, 
clear waters of Lake Superior, trolling for the 
large thirty-pound lake fish, beating the moun- 
tain streams for speckled trout, visiting the 
rolling mills, furnaces, mines and other objects 
of interest, will serve to pass away several 
weeks in an amusing and profitable manner. 
The hotels here are well kept, very comfor- 
sight of the shores of the lake, which are in 
many places mountainous, and clothed in the 
verdure of the pine, hemlock, spruce, fir, and 
other evergreen trees. A more delightful trip 
for the hot days of summer cannot be had 
within the bounds of the American continent. 
The steamers are large, staunch, finely equip- 
ped, and commanded by officers whose su- 
periorsin courtesy and kindness cannot be 
found anywhere. The best hotels at Marquette 
are The Cozzens, Alfred Cozzens, proprietor—

table and charges reasonable. The steamers 
leave Marquette in the morning, and pass by 
the Huron Islands, Manitou Island, Keweenaw 
Point, past Fort William, Hagle Harbor, Eagle 
River, Ontonage, the Pewabic Copper Mines, 
Copper Harbor, Ashland, Bayfield, and so up 
to Fond du Lae and Duluth. We have an 
attractive trip, on magnificent boats, over the 
largest lake in the world, Lake Superior is 
noted for its clear, cold water (it being so clear 
that from the deck of the steamer you can plain- 
ly see the great lake trout playing in the water 
forty feet below the surface); you pass within 
—this honse has a number of summer cottages 
fitted up for the use of guests, who may prefer 
them to the rooms of the hotel—and The North- 
western Hotel, Farnham & Lyons, proprietors. 
This house is situated close to the water of 
the bay, and is a charming location for a sum- 
mer home. Mesdames Williams and Sherman 
keep excellent boarding houses. The rates 
for private board range from $6 to $12 per 
week. A daily line of Pullman Palace cars 
is run between Chicago and Marquette, by 
the Chicago & North-Western Railway Com- 
pany.
