Wise, Jack Wait and wife were buried in

disaster was worse than at first reported.
Six men were killed outright. Among
these were Jack Galbraith, foreman of the

ployed at the mine in two shifts, one shit

Statistics as to Hunchbacks.

Ten years ago a remarkable charac-
ter died in Paris. He was known all
over France and the greater part of all
Europe as The Learned Hunchback. "
He was very wealthy and spent mint
of money in the last fifty years of his
life travelling in all directions MAXI ng
researches concerning his hunchback-
ed brethren. 1t was in the middle
portions of Europe that he found the
misfortune most prevalent. Spain
supplied the greater number, and in a
circumscribed locality at the foot of
Sierra Morena he found that there was
one humpbacked person to every tbir-
teen inhabitants. They were also
found to be quite numerous in the
valley of the Loire in France. The
little humpbacked statistician came to
the conclusion that there was one
humpback in each 1000 inhabitants,
or an aggregate OF 100000 against
the estimated thousand millions of the
entire earth. After the death Of this
eccentric individual his heirs found in
place of will vOluminOu5 manu-
script of 1000 pages. all concerning
humps. The last page. although it
said nothing about the disposition of
property, expressed the authors wish
to have hump of marble raised over
lis grave. with this inscription: Here
lies humpback who had a taste for
humps, and who knew more about
them than any other humpbaclk.

Vic onsin Agriculturists Show a Dis
position to Try That Plan.
MADISON, Wis, Special Telegram,
AT the farmers convention Mr.. Merrick
of Madison created spirited discussion by
advocating the payment of road taxes in
cash rather than permitting it to be worked
by labor as now. Aaron Broughton of
Brodhead fired bombshell by stating that
if the recommendation was carried out we
could have Roman roads. but Roman taxa
ton to pay for them. Farmers work their
own roads and make them at reasonable
rate. He thought if swell villagers wanted
good carriage roads in the country they
should pay for them. Droughton's views
were violently attacked by several speakers
and the prevailing sentiment was plainly
in favor of at least partial cash system
F. E. Parson of Lake Mills contentled in
favor of an ideal horse, which must be
lighter than the present draft horse and
heavier than the trotter. Gen. A. c. Park
inson of Columbus presented an interesting
paper from Minister John Hicks descript-
i've of agriculture in Peru. Tonight Gen.
George E. Bryant of Madison lauded the
Jersey and G. E. Gordon of Koshkonong
the Guernsey, while Gov. Howard, II. C.
Thorn, Prof. w. A. Henry and others spoke
on different phases Of dairying.

PAY A PREMIUM.
ST. Paul People Buy the Stock Of the
Heckla Fire Insurance Company.

MADISON, Wis. Special Telegram.
The troubles which have been disrupting
the Heckla Fire Insurance company of this
city for the past two months eliminated to-
night in the practical sale Of the Heckla's
business to the St. Paul German Insurance
company. All the details of the bargain
were completed and all that is left to be
done is the formulating of the papers to-
morrow and the ratification of the deal of
the Heckla stockholders at special meet
ing to be called for Feb. b. The St. Paul
company obligates itself to take if it is Of
ferred, the whole of the $500, 900 of stock of
the Heckla company, paying therefore $31S,-
600, or premium of per cent. The Heckla
directors bind themselves to procure and
turn over to the st. Paul company
at least majority of the Hecla
stock, thus giving the purchaser full control
over the Heckla affairs. The St. Paul COM
pany assumes every asset and liability of
the Heckla company. The latter has now
outstanding over $4,000 900 of risks, and
its SUI plus at the end of January was $14,-
600. while in December SIS, 600 in dividends
were paid. 1t is the intention of the St.
Paul company to reinsure all the Heckla
risks outside of Wisconsin in the st. Paul
company and to continue, for the present
at least, the risks in this state in the Hecla
company. Albert Scheffer, president of the
st. Paul company, and w. G. Bredengagen,
vice president of the company, made the
deal for their corporation, which is only
nine months old, but which to-day's pur-
chase is expected to boom tremendously
The Rockford and various other companies
made bids to reinSllre the risks but the
Heckla preferred the clean-cut offer made by
the st. Paul company. To-day's deal is a
defeat for the faction of Heckla stockholders
led by President Halle Steensland, and a
victory for Vice President John A Johnson.

BURIED A TOWN.
Avalanches Destroy the town
of Burke in the C9ur
t d'Alene District.
High Water Causes Much
Damage in the Fertile Will
annette Valley in Oregon.

SPOKANE FALLS, Wash, Specialize
town of Burke, Idaho. iE the Ceeur dAlene
mining district, has been nearly destroyed
by disastrous avalanches. Half of the bust
ness houses are in ruin. Three men were
killed, and the terror-stricken inhabitants
have fled to the towns Of Gem and Wallace,
fearing repetition of the disaster.
Particulars are meager, as the
wires to all the points in the
mines have gone down, leaving no means
Of communication. The disaster occurred
yesterday afternoon, and this morning.
With scarcely moments warning, ire
mendons mass of snow and rocks swept
down upon the town from the east side Of
the narrow gulch in which it is situated.
Five men were buried beneath the snow.
Two were rescued, but the others are dead
and their bodies have not yet been recov-
cred. The Inflated town lies in a narrow
gulch, through which Canyon creek pours
its waters into the south fork of the Ceur
,d'Alene. 1t had about 200 inhabitants,
who have deserted their wrecked or men,
.aced homes and places of business. The
nearest town is Gem. also upon Canyon
creek and three miles down the stream.
Yesterday another disastrous avalanche
swept down a boarding house connected
with the Custer mine, which is situated upon
NiEe Mile creek, about five miles from
Burke. The boarding house was full of
miners, six of whom were killed. The 9TH
ers had narrow escape, and number
were more or less injured. The disasters
are not a surprise to those familiar with to-
biography Of that section. The towns are
situated in very narrow gulches, on either
side of which abrupt mountains arise. The
snowfall this winter has been unprecedented
in the history of the country. Within the
last few days it has been raining hard,
which had the effect of loosening the deep
snow banks and precipitating them upon
the town and the houses below
