| Every conductor on the Valley di
vision of the ST. Paul railroad except
the passenger conductors have been
discharged from the employ of the
company the past week. The cause OIL
this radical order is said to be owing
to too much knocking down.
| We see by the St. Point Journal
that Mr.. Hall, proprietor Of the Man
sion House, in that city, is making
several improvements to his hotel in
order to make it more comfortable for
their increasing trade.
The Juvenile Temple of this city
entertained a small audience of Plover
people last Saturday evening. The
little folks enjoyed the trip but fnan-
cialfy'it was failure as the Ploverites
turned out zeroetically.
The Stevens Point Journal says
that Judge and Mrs. Park each took
a dose Of poison last Sunday night,
but by the prompt use of antidotes,
serious results were happily avoided.
The error occurred by taking medicine
from the wrong bottle.

It is reported thrt Mr.. Scott has
disposed of half interest in his lin
coin Co. property to Mr.. G. G. Dixon,
of La Crosse for consideration of
100000. How much truth there is
to this report We cannot say.
HOPE FOR DRUNKARDs.-My
husband had drunken habits he could
not overcome until Parker,s Ginger
Tonic took away his thirst for slim
ulants, restored his energy Of mind
and gave him strength to attend to
business. Cincinnati Lady.
T. j. Dixon, the wholesale and re-
tail grocer in Milwaukee made an
assignment on the Sth inst his heavi-
est creditors are in New York. Liza
bilities $4,000. Assets S45, 900. His
failure is attributed to carrying a
larger stock than his capital would
permit and not from bad debts.
Among the station boys on the Val
ley division of the St. Paul road are
few if any more faithful than Mr.
John g. Love, at Port Edwards.
Since he began work for the company
he has been rapidly promoted and
stands we'll with the managers. We
will not be surprised to hear of his
promotion again in the near future.
1t is pleasure to chronicle the sue
cess of our young men.

A report was current in this city
Wednesday morning that the Newhall
house Of Milwaukee burned Tuesday
night and that 90 human beings per
ished in the flames. Some were saved
by Jumping from the windows. The
details given make ones blood turn al
most cold Most hotels are but fire
traps so far as escaping from them in
time of fire.
We don't know that Hon. G. M.
Webb desires to succeed Mr. Park on
the Bench as judge of this Circuit,
but if he does better qualified per-
son for the position can not be found
In this district We would be well
pleased With Mr.. Webb az Mr.. Park s
successor and it would crafty a large
humber Of his friends. Don't say
anything about it to Charley but go
right along and set the pins for his
election.
We omitted to mention in our last
issue about the donation given id the
basement of the Cong. Church on the
goth ult. for the benefit of Rev. Row
land and family. Considering the
very short notice given to tho public
the affair was a success. Cash given
