PROTECTED FROM FIRE.


The Edwards Manufacturing Company
mills in this city are to be- rs thoroughly
protected from fire as il ia possible for
them 10 be.
And for that matter these mills have had
in the past the very best equipment deemed
necessary to quench in It's incipiency any
blaze that might he started. Around each
room and accessible to all are placed fire
bucket. kept filled with water Fire break
ing out in a cotton factory ia exceedingly
difficult to handle unless action is taken
Immediately ii breaks out There is little
hope Of staying fire breaking out in the
day time unless it can be done with the
buckets of water placed about the room
When the smoke from burning cotton fills
a building it il next to impossible to remain
in il 10 light fire the fumes are so suftoca-
ting.
Most people know. who have visited a
cotton mill that along the ceiling automatic
sprinklers are arranged, the secret of which
il the kind of solder used. burning
newspaper held three feet below one of
these would melt that solder and drench
ing dow nponr would result. These
are more especially for guarding
against IL conhagration that might break
out in the night with no one at hand to
quepch the ncipient blaze with water from
the buckets The water from these comes
from two large tanks into which the com
pany pumps water from the canal. one of
these tanks holds / 500 gallons and the
smaller one GOO gallons.
The company slso has four large fire
pumps and several hydrants so that their
system was considered practical one. In
sursnee companies. however, desire that
every possible preeantion he taken and the
Edwards Company has decided to have a
thorough system in every part. The com
pauy Is laying 1000 feet of eight inch pipe
that is to be- connected with the Augusta
Water Company's main, also with its own
four large fire pumps. Now it has its own
system and the great reservoir power of the
water company and il would seem is as
we'll able to cope with the fire tiend as any
company in the country.

DOCTORS IN SESSION.

The Northwestern Wisconsin Medical
Association held its quarterly meeting
in this city on Tuesday January 18th
Their sessions were held in the council
chamber of the new city hall The
attendance was fair The following
named physicians were in attendance
from outside: DR.. F. B. Robinson, of
Chicago; DR.. Frost, of Almond: Drs.
John and Carl Phillips and F. A. South
wick, of Stevens Point; DR.. R. F. Zeit,
of Medford; DR.. Guernsey, of Amherst; ;

Clinic, of diseases of women, by Prof.
F. B. Robinson occupied the morning

were read after which general
discussion took place. The meeting
was an interesting one and the physi-

twin cities. DR. Robinson was made an
honorary member of the Association

CIRCUIT COURT.

The case of G.. J. Kruger VS.. Clara NJ
Kruger has occupied the attention of
the court for nearly a week. The
charge was that of adultery. The plain
tiff was represented by Gardner &
Gaynor while the defendant was
represented by Mr.. J. w. Cochran. A
large number of witnesses were
sup9ned on each side of the case. The
most of the evidence was of such a
nature that it will not bear repetition.
The conduct of the defendant with one
Oscar Law was certainly of such a
suspicious nature as to provoke all
kinds of comment. However, after
four days of hard and efficient work by
the attorneys on both sides, two to
convict and one to defend, the jury
after short deliberation brought forth
verdict of not guilty. Such cases as
these where all the particulars are
brought out in an open public court
have bad effect on the public in which
they are tried, because most persons
generally form unfavorable opinions Of
both parties, and sometimes unjustly.
Cases of this kind should be settled and
not polute the public mind with a
re-hash of nasty testimony. At least
these sentiments are our private opin-
ion publicly expressed

CRANBERRY CONVENTION

The cranberry convention met in
annual session in this city on Tuesday
January 18th. 1892. The attendance
was not as large as on former meetings.
The interest shown in the discussion of
questions which came before the con-
vention was as great as it could have
been if their had been a larger
attendance. The secretary, J. H. Treat
MADE his annual report which showed
that the society was little in debt. In
Mr.. Treat, the society has very
efficient secretary who lakors incessant-
ly for the cranberry growers association.
An election of officers took place Which
resulted as follows:
President-W. S. Braddock, Mather.
Vice Press. A. Spafford, Grand
Rapids.
Sec'y and Treas.-J. II. Treat, of
Meadow Valley.
Executive Committee-H. O. Krls-
chke, Of Duester, and G. J. Kruger, of
DeXterVilie

GARDNER RIFLES ELECTION.

A large number were in attendance
at the meeting of the Gardner Rifles on
Monday evening, when, there being
more than the necessary number
present to constitute a quorum, an
election ensued with the following
result:
Captaln-B M. Vaughan.
First Lieu't.-George Laufer.
Second Lieu't-Hugh Boles.
Secretarv-E. H. LaVigne.
Treasurer-F. J. Wood.
Much interest was manifested in the
election by the members and their new
officers We're selected, with one
exception, on the first ballot showing
conclusively that they we're almost of
one opinion as to who they wanted and
who the deserving ones were. One
new member was enlisted during the
evening and several other Young men
were reported as desiring to enlist.
The company voted to have target
practice the remainder of the winter
and for that purpose 20 TT UP two
ranges in the armory. Three medals
will also be awarded to ihe marksmen
having the three highest averages in a
given number of scores. The boys took
hold with a new vigor and we are
pleased TO say the future prospects are
brighter and more encoursging and the
ranks will undoubtedly sopn be filled
to the maximum number permitted by
the State laws.

INSTALLATION OF OFFICERS.

AT the regular communication of the
Masonic Lodge last Wednesday evening
the newly elected officers for the ensu-
ing year were installed by Mr.. 6. j.
Jackson, as follows:
w. MI. M. Pattison.
S. VA. L. Ridgman.
Treas.-R. Parrish.
Sec'y-Seth Reeves.
S. De. B. Brundage.
j. Do. 7. Hougen.
Stewards-R. E. Mcfarland and John
Ray.
At the conclusion of the ceremony
the masons, their wives, daughters and
sweethearts repaired to the Hotel Lyon,
Centralia, where the hostess had pre-
pared an oyster supper suitable for the
High Priests and Kings to partake of.
On account of the extreme cold weather
the attendance was not near as large as
expected, but every body who was
present complimented the hostess, Mrs.
Clark Lyon, for the variety and excel
lence of her supper. The bretheren
and their guests appeared to make the
most of their opportunity. Some of the
writers nearest neighbors slowed away
one dish Of stewed and two of raw
oysters. We will not tell on them any
further.
