City Attorney Hart suggested to the
court that as Pierce was the chief witness
in the transaction at The hotel, perhaps it
would be well TO take steps to secure his
attendance in the case hereafter, as he
might wish to leave town.
District Attorney Ryan, who was pres

disposed to grant any delay, and said the

Mr.. Bruner, announced that they had
held a consultation and had decided not
to offer any testimony for the defense at
the preliminary examination unless fur
Their hearing OF the case could be post
poned for a week or more. In that event
they would be ready to proceed, other
wise they preferred to wait until the trial
in the Superior Court.
The prosecution objected to so long a

said he was willing to wait day, but not
longer.
This did not suit the defense, and the
case was submitted.
Judge Cravens then held Palmer to
answer before the Superior Court without

The convention Cf the second Wis
consin district Of the Young Mems
Christian Association held in this city
on Friday, Saturday and Sunday,
proved most interesting and profitable.
The program, as heretofore published
in the city papers, was fully carried
out. The services were held in the
NJ. E. church and were largely at
tended throughout. We believe it is
the first convention of the kind ever
held in Mineral Point, and our people
were afforded an opportunity of judg-
ing of the good work which is being
done by the Young Mems Christian
Association in Wisconsin. The exer-
cises were conducted with an earnest
ness and zeal worthy of the great
cause for which they were held.
The annual festival and prom
enade concert of George Fl. Legate
Post, G. A. r., will be held on Fri
day evening, Dec. 80. 1t is to be
hoped that liberal encouragement will
be extended to those having the mat
ter in charge so that the occasion may
be an unusually interesting and profit
able one

NUMBER 20.
Mr.. James Cullen of Highland.

MIR James Cullen, an old and re-
spected resident of the town of High
land, met with a fatal accident while
on his way home from Avoca on last
Wednesday evening. He had only
left the village a short distance when
the hammer which fastened the
doubletree to the lounge of the sled
worked out of its place, and Mr..
Cullen was pulled out onto the ground
with great force, receiving injuries
from which he died on last Friday
morning, at the Roth house, in Avoca,
where he was taken immediately after
the accident. The body was brought
home that afternoon, and was buried
from St Philips church, in the village
OF Highland, on Sunday. The funeral
was attended by hundreds of friendly
neighbors, who by their presence
wished to honor the memory of the
departed. Deceased was good man,
and number of worthy sons and
daughters survive him. T. s.

Scarcity of Wood PulD.

The Richland Democrat.
The scarcity of wood pulp is getting
to be most serious question TO the
print paper makers at Appleton, SAYS
a local paper. There is little to be
had for love or money and the price
is just about what producers feel like
asking. 1t is said that unless relief
comes pretty soon, some of the mills
will have to close for IL while. The
feeling is quite general, however, that
the pressure is but temporary and that
after the first year there will be plenty
of pulp again at more reasonable prices.
In a couple of months more the
Mineral Point Linen and Fibre Co.
will help to supply the demand.
