Logging Operations About Closed.

WAsHBURN, Wis, Feb. 7.-Logging
operations in this vicinity will be prac-
tically closed for the winter within the
next two weeks. The output of logs is
fully one-third less than that of last
winter. All the mills here are prepar-
ing for an early start, but the large
stocks of lumber carried over indicate a
greatly reduced cut for next season.

The A. p. A. Lecturer Must Answer a
Charge of L bel.
APPLETON, Wis, Feb. 7.-Professor
Sims, the A. P. A. lecturer who was
mobbed at Oshkosh Jan. II, was ar
rested and taken off the train here last
night on the charge of libel preferred by
Peter Reuter-, mayor of Kaukauna
Sims left Oshkosh during the evening
with delegation of $50 members of the
Oshkosh A. P. A. in two cars on the
Northwestern railway. They had with
them band of music, and the pro-
gramme was to reach Kaukauna at $3.50,
march through the streets, and Sims
was to deliver a lecture. Such proceed.
ings would undoubtedly have precipi-
tated bloody riot. To prevent Sims
appearance at Kaukauna, Peter Reuter-.
mayor of the city, instituted civil suit
for libel against Sims and a warrant
was
Issued for His Arrest
by Judge Goodland of the circuit court
The sheriff also swore in % deputies to
60 to KaukauIa in case Sims should es-
cape arrest and reach Kaukauna. He
served the warrant on Sims as he came
through Appleton and took him from
the train. The A. P. A. delegates, $50
strong, headed by the band, followed
through the streets. SIMS was taken
before Court Commissioner Samuel
Boyd and bond was given in the sum of
So, 500 for his appearance. Large crowds
had gathered at the depot, and when
Sims was taken from the train consider
able excitement ensued. During the ex-
element one stone was thrown through
car window and inflicted a scalp
wound upon an unknown passenger. No
other demonstrations were made, except
hOOtings.

The State Papers.

We publish to-day the resolutions Of
the State Press Association, touching
the interest of the newspaper in basi.
ness. We most heartily approve the
resolutions. and will do all in our
power to aid in carrying them out.
The influence Of one newspaper is
valuable, and if all the papers in the
State would live up to these resolu-
tions, it would be hard to estimate the
benefit that would be derived by all.
The press Of this State has never re-
ceived, and never can receive, full
credit for services rendered the State
and the South. In this State the
movement begun by the State papers
resulted in disenthrallment of all the
Southern States. Certainly for this.
and other unreasonable services. and
from business point Of view, Mississ-
ippi papers should at least receive fair
treatment in business matters.
So far as we can we propose to exact
this treatment, and to aid all other
papers in the State, no matter how
much We may differ with them in
politics, in securing it. Let US stand
together as one man, and help those
who help US, and work against those
who work against licksbuu Com.

REALIZING A DEMAND,

The Republicans OF Pennsylvania AZ
their recent State convention, when
nominations for the Gif5erent Offices
were made, headed by Gen. Daniel a.
Hasting for Governor, adopted q plat
form declaring in flavor ol the expan-
sion Of the circulating medium Of the
country until the same shall amount to
$40per capita of our population and ap-
prove Incorporation to issue to nation
al banks notes to the par value OF the
amount Of bonds deposited to secure
their circulation; and declared that the
obligations OF the government should be
discharged in money approved and
current in all civilized nations, to the
end that q largely increased reserve Of
and maintained"
To declare for expanding the currency
to $40 per capita of our population, is a
radical measure for a Republican State
convention, but a long step in the right
direction, and worthy OF com mendation
by all persons, regardless OF party bias,
who do not believe that SA per capita
is sufficient to transact the business Of
the country, many Democrats Senator
George among them, favoring an in
crease in the volume of the circulating
medium tos50 pcr capita,
The declaration Of the Republicans ol
Pennsylvania is quite surprise to the
country, aud Is another straw showing a
disposition to increase the volume ol
currency to the demands Of the country

CHAPTER VII.

Dare faced her grandfather with no
sign of confusion. Indeed her first word
was for him.
GLOW wet You are!" she cried, NOV
ing toward him. Surely you did not
have to swim at the ford%'
He put her away with an impatient
gesture, saying no worQ, but a burning
question in his eyes. Dare had met him
with pretty appealing droop of the
head. Now she stood up as straight as
himself, and to the Watchers eye Gu
rious race likeness to the stern old face
crept over the soft curves of the young
one
Letting a hand fall either side of her,
Dare said, with distinctness that would
have been harsh had her voice been less
clear: 1.-The gentleman is hurt grand
father l have tried TO make him COM
Portable. as you would have done. Let
me make you acquainted with him-Mr.
Allen Haywood.
"What name did you say? The wind
roars so lean hardly hear, Major Over
ton said, stepping within, unmindful of
the dripping from his soaked garments
upon the immaculate floor. Before Dare
could repeat it the stranger got upon his
feet and said, with profound obeisance:
Let me answer that, Major Overton.
The young lady knows only part OF my
name, / am Allen Haywood Fauntleroys
very much at your service. "
Spite of his white hair, fire leaped to
Major Overton S eyes; big veins stood out
upon his forehead; his mouth grew set
and hard; his hand clinched nervously
upon the riding whip he held. For full
minute he was silent Then, speaking
very low, he said:
Leave us, Dare Mr.. -Fauntleroy, "
choking over the name--"I am sorry
to see you in such i'll plight. l hope
that my people have made you as COM
Portable as possible.
They have done much more than that
saved my life. But, Major Overton,
every minute you stand thus dripping
wet endangers yours. l beg you to make
yourself comfortable. Then give me the
pleasure of an hours talk with you. -
Major Overton's eyes blazed more
than ever. yet he answered in o tone
even more silken soft:
Pardon me. Mr.. Fauntleroy, You are
my guest. Nothing puts that aside But
under all the circumstances of the case
must ask that all other than casual
communications shall come through my
lawyers.
With that he bowed himself away, to
return little later in a well brushed
suit of fine threadbare black, with sill
yer tray in his hand. upon which stood
q decanter and two glasses. He set the
salver on the table at Fauntleroy s elbow
and said in the same restrained voice:
