Oak HUI Cemetery association.

At the annual meeting of Oak Hill
Cemetery Association held on Monday
evening, Daniel Hall and Theodore Prem
tiss were elected trustees for the ensuing
three years. These gentlemen, together
with Daniel Jones, Henry Bertram, Will
liam I'll. Rohr and J. 7. Moak constitute
the board Of trustees. The board organ
lied by the election of the following Of
fcers
President-Daniel Jones.
Treasurer-Theodore Prentiss
Secretary--J T. Moak
The affairs of the association are in
most flourishing condition, owing to the
successful management of the gentlemen
having them in charge, who have devot-
ed gratuitously all the time required to
look after the business of the association
properly. The cemetery is not, as many
suppose, the property Of private individu-
ais, but every purchaser Of a lot becomes
stakeholder entitled to all the benefits
and privileges of any other lot owner,
All are equally interested in the affairs of
the association, therefore, and it should
be matter of pride to our citizens that
they have become possessed of such fine
cemetery grounds as those of Oak Hill.
1t is hoped that a side walk to the ceme-
terry will be built the coming summer,
the association having offered liberal
contribution in behalf of the entire price,
and it being expected that sufficient aid
may be realized from outside to insure
the completion of the work

NeaC Railroad Project

The Chicago & Northwestern Railway
company have party of engineers sur
veying a route for road running from
Madison to Milwaukee, which is intend
ed to come through Jefferson county, en-
tering at section - in the town of Lake
Mills and continuing through the
towns of Aztalan, Pennington, and
Sullivan in a south-easterly direction
The Northwestern company have not
fully decided to traverse this route, but
from all that can be learned they are
strongly inclined to do so provided as
good inducements are offered them as has
been by parties along the other contem-
plated route through the southern part of
Dodge county.

Blanche, only daughter of Doctor and
Mrs. R. NJ. Wigginton, died at their resi-
dence in the First ward, of malignant
scarlet fever, Saturday, May Sth, 1880,
in the 9Th year of her age, after an i'll
ness of less than four days. Little
Blanche was lovely and interesting
child, the JOY of the household, and by
her pleasant, bright, winning ways had
greatly endeared herself to her young
companions and older friends. Her un-
timely death fills her late home with a
food of grief that seems too heavy to
bear, and her fond parents have the sym
pathy of all in their crushing bereave-
ment. Let them be comforted with the
thought that "The Lord giveth and the
Lord taketh away" The remains were
conveyed Monday to Nashotah for inter
ment, and in the beautiful cemetery at
that place, amid budding leaves and bios
soming flowers, the body of little Blanche
was laid away in its tenement of clay
there to await the judgment of the
blessed.

Wisconsin Editors &c Publishers
association.


The annual meeting of the Wisconsin
Editors and Publishers Association will
be held at Milwaukee, Wednesday, June
9th, 1880. The convention will meet in
the lecture room of the Young Mems
Christian Association, Evening Wiscon-
sin building, at 10 o'clock A. NJ, for the
transaction of such business as may come
before it.
The President, Secretary, Executive
Committee, and all members of the Asso-
citation who have been spoken to on the
the subject, have expressed an opinion
that three-fourths of the members of the
Association would be present at the Sol
diers Reunion, any way, and that they
would not desire to make two trips in the
month of June. Nearly all are opposed
to any excursion this summer. There
are 80 many attractions this year that it is
believed the annual excursion would not
be largely attended. So this simple bust
ness meeting is called, at time when
great number can be present without ex-
ira effort. Editors belonging to the AS
ISOLATION who are not provided with pass
es from their homes to Milwaukee, will
please send their names to f.. ID. COe,
Whitewater, Wis, and passes will be pro-
vided.

4 Sad Case.

| \ SAD Case.
| Many of our readers will be panied to
learn that Col. Chas. R. Gill, former
resident of this city, but now living on a
! farm about four miles east of Madison, has
been suffering the past few weeks from
alteration of the mind. He imagines
that his family wants to take his life, and
has slept with revolver under his pillow
for some time. About two weeks since he
went to Madison while in very feeble
! condition and complained to the chief of
police that his life was in danger, and
| begged Of him to arrest several members
of his family. Of course no attention
was paid to his complaint He was
helped from his carriage, and taken into
the hotel, where he remained two or three
days. Finding that he could not accom-
plish the arrest of any of his family, his
next idea was to get away from them.
On Monday of last week he went to the
bank, drew all the money he had on de-
post, which was about S., 900, and started
for the East. The authorities of Madison
learning Of his departure with this large
amount of money, telegraphed the police
at Beloit to arrest him on the arrival of
the train and bring him back to Madison,
which they did on the returning train.
The Colonel was very much incensed, ard
threatened all manner Of prosecution.
He attempted to leave on other trains
but was prevented by the hotel men who
would lend him no assistance He was
very weak and was unable to get to the
depots without assistance. Not to be
baked, however he sent for his team and
said he was going home, where he re-
manned only long enough to take his
trunk into his carriage Taking his son
Ralph with him, a bright boy of about
fourteen years of age, he drove from home
saying to his wife that Ralph might not
be back for week. This was last We'd
nesday. Nothing further was heard from
him until Friday, when telegram was
received by doctor in Madison from
effect that his father was worse, and to
come on first train. The doctor went
and returned the next day with his pa
tent, who was in truly piteable condi-
ton. His clothes were covered with dirt
and grease, his frame wasted to mere
shadow, but still clinging to the idea
with the fierceness of maniac, that he
must get away from his family to save
his-life There were rumors ahoat that
he had been robbed Of nearly all his mon
ey On his trip, but the report has been
traced to no reliable source, and we are
in hopes that the story has no foundation
in fact.
This is indeed sad case, and Col. Gill
and family will receive the sympathy of
their old friends in this city in their
atiictiaR.
