SALTWATER NEWS.
Good Work In the Woods-Other
Matters,

John O'Brien returned from his log
ging camps, near VeaZie, Wis, Thurs
day evening, and reports good work
being done i'll the woods. There is an
average of six inches of snow on the
ground, but logging roads are not in a
good condition owing to the almost to-
tai absence of frost in the ground. Mr..
O'Brien thinks, however, that week s
cold weather would leave the roads in
an excellent condition.
The reception given by the Saltwater
club yesterday afternoon and evening
was a brilliant affair, and a very large
number of the elite of the city were in
attendance. The club rooms were
tastefully decorated and presented an
unusually coy appearance. due largely
to the efforts of the patronesses, Mrs.
David Bronson, Mrs. E. w. Durant,
Mrs. III. g. Fogle, Mrs. r. c. Clark, Mrs.
j. s. O'Brien and Mrs. d. II. Hersey.
The year 1891 has been an unusually
prosperous one for Saltwater business
men, evidenced largely by the many
new business blocks erected. Many
valuable Improvements have been made,
and thousands of dollars have been eX-
pended in identifying the city. A
greater portion of the buildings erected
during the year are handsome brick

New Years day was quite generally
observed in this city by the closing of
the public offices, banks and stores and
the shutting down of the various fac
tories and mills. At the prison exer-
cises were held in the chapel in the
forenoon and the cenvicts partook of
an extra good dinner prepared by Stew
ard Benner.
Charles w. Jellison received a tele-
gram Thursday evening announcing
the death of Mrs. Waiter F. Jellison at
Livingston, Mont. Mrs. Jellison was
formerly a resident of this city, and the
remains will be brought here for inter-
ment. arriving this evening or tomorrow
morning.
w. A. Chambers has disposed of his
interest in the logging concern of r. j.
Wheeler & Co., and will start several
logging camps for himself this winter.
His interests were purchased by Messrs.
E. W. Durant and r. S. Wheeler.

Given by Actor Florence to q
Stage-Struck Girl.
Boston journal.
A pretty story related of the lamented
Florence is that of an episode with a
stage-struck young woman. Coming
out of the theater in Boston one evening
after performance young woman
tlmidly approached him, saying as he
paused to listen: ''Mr. Florence, will
you tell me where | can come and see
you about going OH the stage?'
Taking in the situation at glance
the actor replied kindly. "Why. yes, at
the - hotel tomorrow morning at IL
o'clock"
Punctually at that hour the would-be
actress was shown in. She was evil
IDENTIFY a simple-bred girl, fascinated
with the glamour of the footlIghts. With
entire ignorance of what was expected
of her she announced her desire, finish
ing naively:
And thought I'd come and ask you
what l must do first.''
You are familiar with some plays, |
presumed" questioned Mr.. Florence.
"Oh, yes" eagerly. II go to the the
alter all [ can. I'y seen you every time
you've been in Boston,"
but mean you nave studied some
dramatic roles?" pursued the actor.
"l-thlnk not" was the hesitating re-
ply.
you have read something. at least, to
let me see what you can do?" he tried
next.
Il can read poetry" answered the
girl.
Don't you know some poetry that
you can recite?" urged Mr.. Florence.
Yes, she knew Longfellow's 1.-The
Bridge" and she proceeded to give it in
way that it has probably never been
given before nor since.
There was moments silence after
she had finished, broken, at length, by
Mr.. Florence.
You have home?' he asked.
"Oh, yes"
"a mother and father?''
mo father, but mother"
And lover, may be?' watching the
girls face keenly.
She blushed and admitted that there
was lover.
"Well, now, my dear" said Mr..
Florence. dismissing her, II can spare
you no more time this morning. Leave
me your name and address, and you
shall hear from me very SOON"
The girl complied. and before her
footsteps died away in the hall the actor
was at table writing. The next day.
with a handsomely framed picture of
Mr.. Florence, there was delivered to the
asplrant for histrionic effort this note:
Dear Miss: Stay with your mother,
marry your lover and play leading lady
on the home stage. where you are fitted
to shlne-in all womanlinesS. Be assured.
my dear young friend, on the other

GREAT MEN MISSING.
ABSENT AT THE NEW YEARS ROLL
CALL.
A Partial List of Prominent Men Who
Have Passed Away During the
Year Just Closed.

1891 has been a marked year.
1t has been remarkable not only for its sue
cesses. but also for its disasters
1t has seen many men rise to prominence
and power and many others go down under
the dark cloud of death.
Look at the list:
Secretary Window. while speaking at a
grand dinner stops, gasps, and dies before
the gaze of the Mortified guests.
General Sherman, the hero of a hundred
battles, falls before the grim DESTROYER after
gallant struggle.
Dom Pedro, the exiled emperor, beloved by
ms SUBJECTS, is yet forced to breathe his last
among strangers
charles Stewart Parnell, the Irish leader, Is
stricken in the prime of life.
senator Plumb, typical American states-
man, dies nObly in the harness
he list might be prolonged, but WHY null
uply sorrow? These great men have died
and we hear of them because they were SO
prominent. but think of the thousands who
nave died that we do not hear of, Think OF
yourself; reader and see If you too NAV not
De In danger. Have you not had strange
pains, peculiar sensations and unaccount-
able feelings during the past year? Do you
know what they mean! Are you certain of
yourself and your condition: If YOU are not
you should be upon your guard
IL was asserted by the papers that these
men died of heart disease, pneumonia,
upOpleXV etc. An, these were the ap-
parent causes, but what caused the heart
disease, the pneumonia, the apoplexy? Can
you not see that there WAS something back Of
all these: There was. What? A weakened and
diseased condition of the vital organs No
man or woman ever died of heart trouble
when the organs that supply the heart were
healthy. Pneumonia is the result of i'm
paired kidney action. Apoplexy does not
occur when the poisons in the blood are car
ried off by the kidneys.
What then, should be done to avoid these
dangers! See to the great organs on which
the lie depends. namely, the kidneys and
liver. How? We answer by quoting the
words of DR.. william Edward r Olson. physi,
clan of the Royal Navy of England. He says;
''As l consider kidney and liver troubles the
source of most diseases. so do l consider
Warmers Safe Cure the greatest of all known
remedies. 1t goes to the source of the
troubles. 1t does not treat symptoms, but
causes. Hundreds Of my patients have been
cured by Its use, and l am glad to acknowl-
edge and recommend it thus frankly
DIR. Robson was not speaking from theory,
but from vast and rich experience He knew
whereof he affirmed. He knew, as you should
know, that kidney and liver troubles are the
great sources of modern diseases. lie knew
that they often fail TO reveal themselves but
steal into the system, undermine the life and
bring on death before the unsuspectiug VIC
tim is aware. Thousands of valuable lives
nave been lost because the trouble was not
known nor the danger realized. Is it not
possible that you, too, may not realize your
condition and possible danger? Would it not
be well TO pause, think and act before it may
be too late?

A Pertinent EnuuirY.

To The Editor Of The MteNigmcer.
SlH:-Benwood's municipal election
is drawing near, and many Of the per.
sons who have had control OF our city
affairs for several years past being again
candidates for office, We beg leave to ask
why it is that in this city tho saloon IL
cense is fixed at $50 per year while tho
limit allowed by the state law is $3.50?
This fact would be OF little consequence
wcro it not that from year to year the
city tax is levied to the full limit allow
cd by law, which is 80 cents on the SlCO
Of valuation. Now will some OF our city
officials rise up and tell us why it is
that the proprietor OF saloon is charged
4 license fec so much below the figure
allowed by law, while all other citizens
are taxed to the utmost amount within
the power OF the city council to levy? II
this is not discrimination in favor OF
the saloonkeeper, what is it? And
further, why is it?
This is q matter affecting every prop
erty owner in the citE and calls for q
full explanation. AS matters now stand.
and have stood for several years past,
it looks very much as though each and
every taxpayer in tho city is being taxed
to the extreme limit allowed by law tor
the purpose OF enabling the city Coun-
ell to grant q cheap liquor license, or in
other words, the taxpayer is required
to make up the loss caused by granting
an outrageously cheap saloon license.
Let us have an explanation, gentlemen
Of tho city Council, il you please.

as follows: "Mr. Hennig's acting last
night showed great progress olisvoice
was full and powerful, and well sus-
taincd and his bearing consistent with
the character OF the villainouc Gloster.
Ho was encouraged by discriminating
but hearty applause. His delivery OF
the opening soliloquy and the soliloquy
on conscience showed advancement in
histrionic study and his enactment OF
the scene on Bosworth field was spir-
tied and thrilling. Throughout. in
short, his conception OF Richards char
acter is correct and his Interpretation
adequate"
Since Mr.. Hennig last appeared as
the crook-backed tyrant he has had
