Charley Hanson and his party of young people who were about to take a launch ride on the Yahara Tuesday evening, may thank their good luck and a kind providence that they were not all drowned or burned to death by the explosion of their gasoline engine. The engine was disabled and the boat took fire, but all escaped without injury. The old settlers’ annual gathering of Wednesday was like all former ones, largely attended and a success in every particular. The meeting was held at the farm home of Wm LaFay and the guests were made to feel that they were right at home. The usual elabor ate nood-day meai was served, followed by the regular program of speaking, music and a general good time. The next meeting will be held at the home of T G Taylor in Dunkirk. For having in their possession small i pike of less than one pound in weight, j R W Emmerson, F A Emery, E T Car ;ey and U Swigley, all of Rockford, i were taken before Judge Donovan i Wednesday and paid in fine and costs i $13.90 each.

In addition she was speciaily honored with two prizes, one a hand-painted loving cup for the best English work in her class, and for the same in the school received another one of ten dollars. A quiet wedding was that at the Methodist parsonage Tuesday forenoon when Miss Beulah E North, eldest daughter of Rev T W North and wife, was united to William P Cresap of Miles City, Mont. For the past four years the bride has been an instructor of music in the public schools of that city, and while there formed the ac quaintanceship of Mr Cresap, who is one of the leading merchants in that city. The wedding was a quiet|one, only the family being present, ana the father of the bride performing the cer emony. Immediately after the con gratulations had been extended the couple prepared for their journey west ward, taking the noon train. Mrs Mary H Sperry passed quietly away Saturday, June 12, aged 83 years. Again another early settler of this sec tion has been called, and the ranks of the pioneer are being rapidiy lessened as the years fly past. Mrs Mary Hol lenbeck Sperry was bom in Madison county, New York, June 20, 1826, and with her parents came west in 1846, locating in the town of Union. In 1847 she was united in marriage to Charles B Sperry and since that time has re sided in the town of Porter. To this union five children were born, four of whom, Mrs Isadore C Tolies of McCool Junction, Neb, Chas W Sperry of this city, Frank D and Etta M, who are re siding on the f old home farm, survive. The Irish picnic and field exercises, held at the Evansville fair grounds on Wednesday, were attended by more than 3,000 people and were a success financially and otherwise. The big features were the horse races, relay races and two games of base ball. Mark Hain, owned by M Conway, Ed gerton, won the horse race. The Ev ansville team won the relay race and got a banner and silver cup for their victory. Evansville defeated Albany in the first ball game 3to 1. It took Beloit thirteen innings to win, 3to 2 from Footville in the afternoon game. The amount realized is to apply on the indebtedness of the Evansville Catholic church. Fort AtKlnson, Shephard Griffey met with a serious accident one day last week. An auto mobile going at very high speed struck him before he could get out of the way, fracturing a rib and bruising him very severely. It seems hard to believe that a val uable dog chained to his kennel would be shot and killed from ambush by a neighbor, yet such is the charge made by our Chief of Police Henry Wooden, whose fine rabbit hound “Sport” was shot on June 4 as he claims from am bush by a neighbor. The death of Postmaster John G Ruel of Helenville, this county, has cast a gloom over that little community, where every one was his friend. About a year ago he was attacked with tuberculosis of the throat, which later affected his lungs. He failed steadily until his death which occurred Friday, June 11, at 2 a m. It can now be authoritatively stated that Fort Atkinson will soon have anew banking institution. The bank will be known as “The People’s State Bank.” Sufficient stock has already been sub scribed among business men and citi zens and the project will be pushed to completion by the promoters without delay. So bitter is the feeling against the carnival company which had been giv ing performances here this week that the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution will not ac cept any money that may be tendered as its share of the proceeds, the ex hibitions having been arranged for the benefit of the chapter. Another result will be that the city in the future will deny the use of the streets to any simi lar company, no matter for whose pe cuniary profit the attraction is booked. Cambridge Many of the farmers in this vicinity started planting tobacco this week. As a rule the plants are not very large and strong, owing to the cold, wet season, but with favorable weather conditions from now on there are yet hopes for a good crop of the weed. The heaviest rain storm of the season passed over this section last Saturday night, flooding the low lands and doing some damage to crops. The stone cul vert at Theo Kenset’s, west of town, was washed away and other washouts are reported. The rain retarded farm work on some of the land for several days. One of the busiest places in this vil lage is the Prairie Queen creamery. At present the factory is running to its full capacity in turning out the golden colored product. Some idea of the vast amount of business may be gleaned from the fact that more than three tons of butter are manufactured every week and it is expected that before the end of the month 7,000 pounds per week will be reached. There is perhaps not another factory in Dane or Jefferson covnty that can show a like volume of business. And the best of it is, the product from this factory ranks with the best butter made in the state. The genial and proficient manager and but termaker, Fred Burleson, has on sev eral occasions carried off first or second honors at the monthly butter scoring contest held at the state university. He sends a sample regularly and the scores he receives are always near the top. —For the poor man we have 33,000 acres wild land in Minnesota. Improv ed farms all through it. Creameries, schools, churches everywhere. Plenty of timber. Railroads, telephone. This land is just as good as any land, and an acre of potatoes there will produce ag> many dollars as an acre of tobacco here. This land can be had for one tenth the price of land here. See us for particulars. —North & Wentworth. —Now is your chance to buy wool suits at a great saving. Suits that for merly sold, from $15.00 up to $15.00 all go at one price. Your choice at $9.50. —T. P. Burns, Janesville. Field of Honor Commission. Perhaps wit is stimulated by a slight derangement of the nerves, and good things said on the field of battle are sometimes recorded. When “Bully” Egan fought Curran with pistols the bulky Egan complained that his oppo nent was as thin as a blade of grass. “Let my size be chalked out upon your body,” said Curran, “and any hits out side of the line shall not count.” It was not good form, however, to make a parade of magnanimity, and the coxcombical practice of firing in the air or “dumb shooting” or “chil dren’s play” was strictly prohibited by the rules, of which thirty-six were drawn up by representatives of the five most eminent counties—Galway, Tip perary, Mayo. Sligo and Roscommon— in 1777. They met at the summer as sizes at Clonmel and seem to have done their work very gravely and hon estly, including a special rule for “sim ple, unpremeditated encounters with the small sword.” There is a large element of absurdity about it all no doubt, but even dueling has had its place as a rough, inefficient test of manhood—Blackwood’s Magazine. Grand People In London In 1806. “I came to town on Wednesday and intended to go to the Ancient Music; made a Bungle about my Ticket; it was too late to get it. The Drawing Room was the object yesterday. They made a mistake in my Dress. It was not deep enough for my Mourning, and the glass of my Sedan Chair was not mended. Looked at my Lodgings; found them Abominable. I walked all over the Town till I was, Lord, how tired! Looked in upon the Duchess of Gordon while she took off her Hoop to Dine with the Bedfords.” This was Jane, duchess of Gordon, who rode down the High street of Ed inburgh on a pig’s back in the days of her wild girlhood and raised recruits for the new highland regiment when other means had failed by allowing each man to take the shilling from be tween her lips. Hoops were de rigueur for court dress until the days of George IV., although in private life the ladies’ skirts had been growing more and more scanty since the days of the French revolution.—From “John Hook ham Frere and His Friends,” by Ga brielle Festing. Winning a Violin. The way M. Ysaye, the great violin ist, became the owner of a Guarnerius violin dated 1742 was thus quaintly told by himself: “The Guarnerius was bought in Par is by a pupil of mine, a charming young woman. I envied her the vio lin, and fate gave it to me. I teach this pupil, and by and by I meet her sister, a most lovely young woman, with whom I fall in love straightway and marry. Soon I go to my sister-in law, who was my pupil, and say to her: “ ‘lt is time you stop fooling with violin. You will never learn how to play it.’ I take the liberty of a big brother, but she do not like it for long time. At last she succumb to my ex perience and wisdom, and she stops playing. Then I say grandiloquently: “ ‘I will take the Guarnerius, 1742.’ I take it, and that is how the violin came into the possession of Ysaye.” STATE OF OHIO, CtTY OF TOLEDO i LUCAS COUNTY. $ * Frank J.
