Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1885-02-26

hAkhlhD.-A lne L. M. parSOn-
age, at Mineral Point, by Rev. C.
Dawson, Feb. II, 1885, Mr.. Isaac
Brown, of Lost Grove, and Miss
Martha Jenkins, of Mifilin.
WooD sellers who have Mineral
Point for a market are blessed. No
where in the county is the price
two-thirds as much as here. No
better wood grows out of doors than
can be bought at Dodgevills for
1926 per cord.
ALL have to concede to Henry
Curry the honor of being the most
expert roller skater in this section,
for who but him around here can
jump over chairs standing upright,
turn handsprings, etc., and keep his
feet with apparent ease.
WHILE engaged in dressing tur-
keys the other day, David Jacko,
son of the butcher, accidently gave
himself terrible cash, with a keen
edged knife, in the wrist parallel
with the arm. He has been com
PEELED to sling the arm ever since.
SOME five or six of the poultry
fanciers of this city went on a trip
to-day to view the poultry yards of
VIM. B. Harris, in the vicinity of
the County Farm. Mr.. Harris is an
enel getic breeder of several of the
leading varieties and no doubt the
PARTY will realize full satisfaction.
ONE week from to-day and Dem
ocratic president, whom "Siva" des-
ignates as the period E. marking the
conclusion of the Republican party,
will hold the reins of government.
What a marked contrast in affairs
upon his ascendency and twenty-four
years ago when his party went outl
YES, gentlemen, of this city and
town, you are drawn as petit jurors
for the March term of the Iowa
County Circuit Court. Reference is
made TO Messrs. Albert Spratler,
VIM. Ross, and Jas. Brewer, of the
city, and Henry Kendall, Henry
Bennett and John Carpenter, Of the
town.
Mrs JANE TREvELYAN, whose
funeral took place from the M. E.
church on Monday, came to Mineral
Point in June, 1885. 1t is said that
only Joseph Jones, who acted as
pail bearer, has been longer resi-
dent here. Deceased had been sick
for considerable time, and her
death was not entirely unlocked for.
She was about 6S years old.
UNLESS you know more about the
circumstances than we, take our adj
vice and do not wager very heavily
on the wrestling match to take place
at Darlington on Saturday. Car
keek is unquestionably the besC man
at Cornish style in the state, and if
Bell is of this state it's funny how
he has so long been in oblivion.
THE Wig, published at Quincy,
H., furnishes the following remedy
for hog cholera: "Get saw dust and
mix it in equal parts with bran, and
make swill and feed it to the hogs.
1t will cure those that are sick and
prevent others from taking the
disease. This is simple remedy
that has been thoroughly tested, and
found to be sure cure. 1t will
pay farmers to give it trial"
A REPUBLICAN County Conven-
ton has been called for the 18th of
March, to place in nomination a can
didate for County Judge. Republi-
cans throughout the county should
not fail to give this proper attention
as the Probate Judgeship is one of
the most important Offices in the
county. Attend to your caucuses,
and let every town be represented at
the convention.
CABINET PHoToGRAPHs.- Owing
to the extremely cold weather du-
ring the past month Jenkins & Hos
king have decided to extend the
