One week ago Saturday VIM. Helke
of the four mile creek got quite drunk
and marshal Compton gave him friend
ly advice to get into his wagon and go
home. Upon being spoken to as be
ing drunk he resented it, as is usual
by men in such a condition, and began
insulting the marshal, using abusive
language. 1t being Saturday the
marshal deemed it wise to load him
into his wagon and arrest him the
next time he came to the city, while
sober, which he did last Saturday. He
was brought before the Police Justice
and plead guilty to the charge of be-
ing drunk and would not say whether
he was abusive or not. The marshal
gave his testimony under oath and the
court fined Helke s. and costs. Some
of the Germans have felt disposed to
crititize the marshal for this arrest,
Any one with grain of sense, who is
not guzzler would say the marshal
did right. He shows no partiality
which is just as it should be. Dc
your whole duty Mr., Marshal and
don't fear or favor, because the rum,
blossomed editor of the Enterprise, oil
any other public nuisance feels called
upon to crititize you. You are support
cd by the best business men in The
city,

Raided the Gamblers.

The police made another raid upon
the gamblers last Saturday evening,
and brought faro game to an uncere-
monious close. No arrests were made,
but the names of the parties present
were taken down and they were cited
to appear before the police court.
Gambling has been carried on more
openly here during the past few
months, than ever before since the
city was organized, and we understand
Mayor johnson has determined to put
a stop to it. OF the bad influence
gambling has upon the morals Of a COM
munity it is not necessary to speak
Everybody recognizes and admits its
and the wonder is that the game,
have been permitted to run as long as
they have. And especially, when boys
just entering their teens are permitted
to take part. This, we understand,
has been the case here during the past
winter. Many mother in Stevens
Point would be Mortified could they
see the names of the boys and young
men of the city who are in the habit
of spending their earnings and time
at the gaming table. Sidmore. who
was running the game, when the police
made the raid, was fined $4,000 and
costs by Justice Stumpf-St. p.
JawnaJ.
From the number of gamblers who
lately arrived in this city, it will be
necessary to treat EN- to simil ar pro
ceedings here.

AN UNWRITTEN POINT OF HISTORY.
Truth is indeed stranger than fiction
It is interesting to note how some Of
the most iliustrious historical charac-
ters died. Richard Ceur de Lion like
the animal from which his heart was
named fell by the arrow of an archer
George " passed away a victim of
gluttony and dissipation. Henry VIII
died OF carbuncles and scurvy, because
in those days there was no Swayne's
Ointment for skin diseases to care the
Affections in the beginning.
Justice Harlan, of Chicago, has re-
turned verdict for $4,000 in favor
OF ketchum, for the burning of his
mill in 1880 by sparks from locomo-
tive on the Green Bay railroad. Also
verdict of $4,000 in favor of the
Scranton Manufacturing and Boom
Co., against the same railroad. Also
a verdict of S.. 500 in favor of the
Dexterville Manufacturing and Boom
Company.
Elmer Patrick, formerly a Grand
Rapids boy and typo on the REPORTER
has made leap for independence and
is now publishing a paper of his own
at Zumbrota, Goodhue county. Mimi,
called the zum6roto Republican 1t
is an eight column folio and is printed
on Wednesday, Who will say that
Grand Rapids boys are not making
successful men? Elmer is a son of
our dairy man in this city but is ahead
of his dad in politics, who is a green
hacker.
County Treasurer Nelson is getting
out notices to serve on the different
town and village treasurers in the
county, calling their attention to the
provision Of the revised statutes, max
ing it their duty to pay all money
received for saloon licenses over to the
county treasurer to be applied towards
the maintenance of the county poor
house The law is explicit on this
point, and the supreme court has lust
pronounced it good law in test case
carried up from Green county. New
London will have to pay about S14OO.
Waupaca about $500 and Weyauwega
$3.50, and other towns in the county
smaller but no inconsiderable sums.
and the aggregate will make an amount
which will go long way towards sup
poting the county poor. And this
isn't all. Each town owes the county
all that has been collected in the past
four years. The county treasurer has
been shown that it is his duty to collect
this money, and there probably will be
some ''kicking" before it is done,
However, the money will have to be
paid, as it is the district attorney
business to see to it if the county
treasurer does not Waupaca Post
Judge Gardeners new buildings are
in process of erection. The contract
for putting up the stone walls ha:

A CITY BUILT OF SHELLs-Per
haps you do not know the city Of
Paris is built mostly of shells, the
cast-off houses CT uncounted millions
Of little creatures. Each she'll is not
as big as millet seed, and the little
creatures lived in them ages ago.
They were SO many Of them in the sea
that they settled into real mountains,
became cemented together, and now
the mountains Of shells form the
quarries where most of the Paris
building stone is procured, The shells
are shaped like that of a snail, and
are SO plentiful in the Paris stone that
one (cubic) inch is said to contain

are found all over the world, not only
in stone. but in the sands on the shore.
