Mineral Point John Vivian, who on
Saturday, April 18th, lost on High
street a ten dollar bill, found the same
by advertising in the want column of
The Democrat Our townsman, James
Argau, Sr., found the bill, and on
seeing the notice in the paper, sent
| word to Mr. Vivian to call and get
his money. If old Diogenes had had
the columns of The Democrat at his
command he would have had no use
| for his lantern.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Brown, of the
diocese of Fond du Lac, preached at
Trinity church in this city on last
Friday evening and conferred the rite
of confirmation upon a class of six.
While in this city the bishop complain
ed of having contracted a cold while
travelling on the cars the day previous.
On Saturday morning he took the
| train and returned directly to his home
at Fond du Lac, where we understand,
he has since been confined to his
house with sickness.
The Madison Daily Democrat of
Saturday last contains the following
personal notice: At. w. Bishop, editor
and proprietor of the Volga Oak
Tribune, is in this city-his old home.
Well, to know him one must call him
" Tom plain Tom Bish." Tom
was a gallant soldier in the proud old
Second Wisconsin, and after the war
he was an honored typo in this city
one of the best natured and most lib
eral men to be found. None of " Ma
lures journeymen drafted Tom -
no, he is the work of the Master.
Mineral Point was the home of his
childhood, and, of course, he was
brought up a staunch democrat-one
of the d-time Capt. Henry stripe.
tom" is heartily greeted on every |
corner"
There seems to be good foundation |
for the belief that the C. q n. w. |
railway will be extended from Dodge |
vile to Mineral Point during the COM
ing summer. The company have |
manifested disposition to build the
line provided they receive reasonable
encouragement from the citizens of |
Mineral Point, and our business men
have taken steps in the matter sufff-
cient to show that they are anxious that |
the road be constructed and will render
the company substantial encourage
ment. An extension also to Highland
is doubtless part of the project, and
there is scarcely any room to doubt |
that the construction and operation of
these two lines would bring the North
western company good returns in way
of freight and passenger business,
unless the st. Paul company should
bestir itself and extend its line directly
from this city to Highland.
