Obituary.

William Roberts, one of the most aged
citizens of WATERFOWL, died on Wednes-
day at the residence of his daughter, Mrs.
T. Jones, in the Third ward, after
brief illness. Mr. Roberts was born in
North Wales in the year 1892, and was
consequently So years of age at the time
of his death. He came to Wisconsin
from Oneida county, New York, in 1916,
and settled on a farm in the town Of En-
NETT, Dodge county, where he continued
to reside until his removal to this city
some ten years ago. Deceased was
widower, and besides his daughter, Mrs
Jones, leaves three sons, Vincent Roberts,
of Iron Ridge, Dodge county, Robert
Roberts, living in Ohio, and William
Robert, a resident of Minnesota The
funeral of the deceased was held at his
late home Friday afternoon.
We have the sad duty to perform this
work of chronicling the death of Crowell
Bartlett, an early settler of Jefferson
county, which occurred at Quincy,
Branch county, Michigan, Sunday,
March 18th, 1880, in the 10th year OF his
age. Mr.. Bartlett was born in New
Hampshire and was grand son of Josiah
Bartlett, one of the signers of the Decla-
ration of independence, hence he came
of good stock. He emigrated from West
ern New York to Wisconsin i'm 1849, and
settled ON a farm in the town of Milford,
this county, where he continued to reside
until his removal with his family to
Quincy, about ten years ago. AT the
time of his decease he was engaged in
the -four milling business with son.
The cause of his death was typhoid fever.
A kind husband and father, man of
pure character, his loss is deeply regret
ted by bis family and large circle of
friends. The deceased leaves wife and
five children as follows: j. n. Bartlett,
of this city, Charles and Fidelia, of
Quincy, Michigan, Mrs Elizabeth House,
of Lake Mills, and Mrs. Horace Mute, of
ClintOnville, Wisconsin.

@GTunt'S Tour around The
u OrLd.o

Being a Narrative of the Incidents and
Events of his Journey, and containing
accurate descriptions of the cities and
countries visited by him, the manners
and customs of the people, remarkable
places and objects of interest, with full
account of the great honor paid to Gener-
al Grant by the Sovereigns and people of
the Old World, etc., by James D. Nc
Cabe, the well-known historian, publish
ed by Jones Brothers & Co., Cincinnati,
Philadelphia and Chicago.
The journey of General Grant around
the World is one of the most remarkable
events of modern history He was every
where received by both the soyereigns
and people of the old world with the
highest honors, and his whole journey was
like romance.
The book begins with an account of
General Grants departure from Philadel-
phia, in the steamer Indiana and gives
a pleasant account of his voyage across
the Atlantic, and arrival in England.
His reception in that country, the distin-
guished honors paid him by Queen Victo-
ria, and the enthusiastic welcome he met
with in all parts of England and Scotland
are related in graphic style. Then tax
ing them in their regular order, the book
narrates the travels of General Grant in
the various countries of Europe, the at
tentions and honors shown him by the
sovereigns and people of every country
he visited. 1t gives his interviews with
the statesmen of the old world in full.
Then, leaving Europe, the reader is tax
en- to Egypt, the Holy LAND, India, Siam,
China and Japan, and the travels of Gen
eral Grant in those interesting countries
are related at length. The manners and
customs of these far-of Eastern people are
brought before us with a vividness that
is actually life-like. We see the towns,
the people, the quaint customs, and the
thousand and one habits of daily life in
the East as plainly as if we were looking
On the scene ITSELF 1t should be remem-
bered that General Grant enjoyed pecu
liar advantages in his travels The govern
ments of the countries he visited afforded
him every facility for examining and
studying the civilization and institutions
of their respective countries. No other
traveller ever had such an opportunity of
seeing and learning SO much, and no
crowned king was ever the recipient of
such great honors from foreign powers as
was the ex-President of the United States.
These facts give to a narrative of General
Grants Tour an interest that would not
attach to an ordinary work of travel
The mechanical execution of the work
is superb. 1t is large octave volume of
more than 800 pages, illustrated with
nearly 200 fine engravings of the places
visited by General Grant, and with
fine new steel engraving of the General
himself These engravings are accurate
having been drawn on the spot, and are

Sisters In Addiction.

THE city of Menasha in this state is af-
hicted with heavy railroad debt, con-
tracted some eight years ago. Her citi-
zens have offered the creditors so cents
on the face of the bonds, but no consider
able part of them have signifed will
ingness to accept anything less than the
face and interest. Mr.. Kruger, the
member from that district, introduced a
bill into the last legislature similar in
principle to the law under which our
city government is working. The bill
passed the assembly by small majority,
through the influence of large delega-
ton from Menasha sent to Madison to lob
by for the measure. With the senate COM
mittee the bill met with furious oppo-
sition. Mariner, Colby and others fought
the bill in committee and elsewhere and
succeeded in eradicating from it the Sec
ton which allowed the city to administer
its affairs with less than full council.
This was victory for the bondholders.
The legislature said in substance to
Menasha we will not assist you to eyade
paying your debts. In the struggle
Watertown was often referred to, and
sometimes in not very complimentary
terms. The defeat of the Menasha bill
before the legislature cannot be construed
otherwise than as gentle hint to Water
town that she had best compromise her
debt while she has the bondholders at a
disadvantage. Is it not highly probable
that some legislature in the not very far
future will say to Watertown what the
last one said to Menasha, and repeal the
laws with which we are now protected
from the grasp of the bondholders?
There is great danger of it to say the
least.

Parl0r Organ instruction Book.

Iaft0f organ InStTuctiOH DOOk.
The Parlor Organ instruction Book by
A. N. Johnson and published by Oliver
Ditson & Company, Boston, fills vacant
place among Reed Organ Instructors, al
though this may be ventursome asser-
ton to make.
MIR. j. begins by explaining, with
what seems to be unnecessary simplicity,
the Keyboard and the notes, introducing
hundreds of questions for review, and
numbers or very simple tunes for one
hand, furnished with words, and care
fully fingered, for study and practice.
Forty pages of this kind of work prepare
us for the $50 finger exercises, inclnd-
ing scales and all possible kinds of finger
passages.
After this we have 81 progressive
pieces of light music for study, with full
directions as to the manner of studying
them.
All this fills but half the book. The
remaining half is a thorough instructor
in chord music, which every one must
learn to play, Hymn Tunes, Sabbath
School and Gospel Song Music, etc.
Instructors on the Reed Organ will, We
are sure, be right glad to see this very
practical book. $3.50 will bring speci-
men copy to any address.
