ONE OF The FIENDs.-He first appeared
in tobacco store on Michigan avenue. He
had something rolled up in tin foil, and he
carefully placed it on the counter and asked ):
z''De you ever have any use for dynamite?"
r- Dynamite !! Take the internal thing
away!" shouted the tobacconist, as ejump-
ed back. "What on earth are you carrying
the stuff around this way for? Here-have
a smoke and take it away. [ don't want
any fooling around my store"
The man lighted his cigar and strolled
down the street and into saloon, and when
he had placed his little package on the bar
he observed: r.,.s.....,..
''It's just as safe as sugar as long as you
know how to handle it!' y,
whats that? Say, isn't that the stuff
they call dynamite ?"
The man grinned.
"Now, you get out of this! don't pro-
pose to have my head blown off to humor
your nonsense. Here-come up to this end
of the bar and have glass of beer, and then
pick that stuff up powerful careful and tip
toe out"
Down at the corner another saloonist
next block grocer who was asked to take
the State agency, turned as white as new
process -four, and his very first jump meas
ured eight feet. The dynamite man asked
him how he sold plug tobacco, and he stood
in the alley door and called back:
''If you want plug pull it off and get out
o. this! When I get ready to Vacate here
want to move in the regular wayW
He was trying his persuader on another
saloonist when policeman overhauled him,
and sternly demanded the package:
s'There it is and you can take your
chances" replied the man, as he placed the
affair on q chair and walked out doors.
It was five minutes before the officer
picked it up, and then he was all alone in
the place. He placed it on the bar, carefully
removed the wrapping and when he reach
ed the compound itself he stuck up his nose
and walked out and pursued his way. 1t

Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1884-04-04

At the foot of the Green Noun
tains, South Adams, Mass, 1920,
was born this woman who has so
faithfully and devotedly championed
the franchise of her sex at the bal
lot box. Her ingress into the
ranks of the Woman's Rights cause
emanated from her early experience
as school teacher, her compensa-
ton being but eight dollars a
month, while men received for the
same service from twenty-four to
Thirty dollars, After fifteen years
Of the closest economy she had saved
only $500 out of her meagre salary,
while had she received equal COM
pensation for equal service her saw
ings would have aggregated at least
$1,000. The contrast aroused her con-
ceptions of injustice and from 1852
she has been one of the leading
spirits in every Woman's Rights
Convention held in America; was
all these years, and is still is, the
Secretary of the National Associa-
ton.
A great many people suppose that
woman's rights" is an eccentric
"hobby , with Miss Anthony. Not
SO. From 1857 to 1866 she was an
ardent worker with Wendell Phil
ipps and Lloyd Garrison in the anti
slavery cause and continued to ad-
vocate freedom for the negro until
the emancipation edict gave them
their liberty. She is also a great
temperance worker, and, in fact,
whenever there is cause in which
justice and the good of all humanity
is involved, the voice, the heart and
sympathies Of Susan B. Anthony is
foremost in the contest.
Miss Anthony has fine figure and
lerge, well-shaped head. The
world calls her cross-grained and
angular. She has indeed her pecu-
lar ways, but they are only exter-
Tor. Her nature is a broad, gener-
Gus and sympathetic one, though
she never weeps or sentimentalizes.
Our likeness well portrays the
strong character of Miss Anthony,
and our readers can rely upon its
being a faithful reproduction of an
excellent photograph very lately
taken.

Mr.. Frank L. Gilbert of the Milf
fin Graded School:


"our present school building was erected in

Previous to that time school was conducted in
a small stone structure still to be seen standing

population and consequent increase Of number
of school children necessitated erection Of q
more commodious school house.

nicely furnished in regard to seating, etc. being

In the upper department, we have IS enrolled,
with an average daily attendance OF Is. The
school is very full this winter. and the good
average attendance and deep interest manifested
warrant me in saying that much good Is being
done for all. The work being done by the pupils
is very satisfactory to me, and think viii COM
