HOWE HIGH SCHOOL.

That Lawyers are q benefit to
Society," was decided beyond question
in spirited debate of the Forum
society last Friday at the High school,
Harry Gardner led the affirmative and
Wilbur Ward championed the negative
IN an able attempt to destroy the stand
ing of the law-man as benefactor in
society, but without avail. The Forum
announces that it would be glad to have
more Of the parents and older people
attend its meetings as visitors. The
question next week for discussion will
be, "Resolved, that Z. S. Senators
should be elected by a direct vote of
the people," Chas. Pomainville and
Emmett Carey will speak for and against
the above, respectively, as leaders.
The foot ball team is now an organiza-
ton for business and on Monday the
boys received nice outfit of new
suits. They have daily practice at the
Fair Grounds and are making splendid
progress for beginners, with Glenn
Williams as coach. A challenge has
been issued to the Tomah High School
eleven, which is said to put up pretty
hard line, and they are expected here
III the very near future. The Howe
High School eleven is none too heavy,
but with continued practice-rubbing on
the gridiron will no doubt develop some
good players. Its personnel is made
up as follows:
Archie Bulls or Otto Roenius, center;
Frank Wheelan, left guard Ebert
kellogg or Chas. Pomainville, right
guard: Paul Mcneil, left tackle; Wilbur
Ward or John Compton, right tackle
Wilbur Briere, right end; Irving
Brazeau, left end; Lee Love, quarter
back; Chas. Podawiltz and Frank Ford
half backs; Harry Rablin, full back.
Mr.. Henry Rablin was visitor at the
High school Monday, and Matthew
McRaith spent some time among the
students Tuesday.
Scholars of the high room will have
their first examinations next week.
On Friday afternoon Oct. 18th, the
Freshman rhetoricals will be in order.
Visitors are welcome.
Scarlet and White are the colors
now worn pendant by every patriotic
high room student. These shades were
decided upon this week as the High
school ensign of distinction, and so
when you see badge of scarlet and
white you may recognize the student or
| the friends of the Howe High School
We trust they will keep the standard
waving proudly and high.

Hoffman Murder Trial.

The State Of Wisconsin VS.. August
Hoffman is title of a murder case on
trial the past week in this city before
the Hon. Chas. NJ. Webb. It came
here on change of venue from Marathon
county. The state is represented by
the district attorney of Marathon
comfy, l.. A. Pratt, assisted by Geo. r.
Gardner Of this city; the defendant is
represented by Mr.. Marchettl, of
Wausau, and Geo. w. Cate, of Stevens
Point. The case was commenced Mon
day afternoon and is still on trial
About twenty-five witnesses have been
sworn.
The defendant does not deny cutting
the deceased, but claims to have done
so in self defense. All the testimony
on the part Of the state is in effect that
he killed VIM. Herzog without cause or
provocation in cold blood. The self
defense theory is supported principally
by the defendants brothers and rela-
tives. The arguments are being made
this afternoon and it is expected the
case will be given to the jury this even
ing. The expectation is that the
defendant will be found guilty of the
murder of VIM. Herzog as affirmed in
the complaint.

OBNOXIOUS WEEDS.

The three worst weeds known to the
farmer are the Russian Thistle, the
Canada Thistle and Snapdraggon. These
three weeds have already been found
in our county, but so far as we have
been able to learn they are limited to
the cities of Grand Rapids and Contra
liza. The snapdraggon appeared on the
old circus grounds on the "Island" in
the city of Grand Rapids about % years
ago. From this point it has been spread
ing steadily until now it may be found
in nearly every ward Of the city. In
time it will reach the country and when
it mixes its seeds with the ordinary
farm crops and barn yard manure it
will spread rapidly. 1t is q bad weed,
but not nearly so dangerous or damag-
ing to the farmer as the Canada thistle
or the so called Russian thistle.
These two weeds have been found in
our cities for the first time this year.
The Russian thistle in the city of
Centralia near Jackson's mill and the
Canada thistle in the Gardner lots IN
the city of Grand Rapids.
1t would cost but little to eXterminate
these pests now, but if they are allowed
to scatter the time will come as it has
already come to older counties when it
will cost thousands of dollars annually
to even hold them in check. We will
fare worse even than the older counties
because we have so much more waste
unoccupied lands where they will take
possession of the soil and keep out not
only other vegetation but neither man
or beast will want to 90 where they
have possession of the ground, and
from these places they will spread to
the cultivated fields. A little expense
now, will exterminate, and little
care afterwards will keep these pests
out of our county.
The two cities should see to it that
the law is enforced and that these
weeds are exterminated within their
borders. Every piece Of land within
the two cities is owned by some one,
and whenever these weeds are found
on lot the owner should be called on
to exterminate them. If he will not
then the public can CIT at his expense.
The Russian thistle is destroyed by
pulling it before it goes to seed. But
this will have no effect on the Canada
thistle or snabdraggon as they spread
by underground runners as we'll as by
seed.
The cheapest and most etfectual
method on the whole is to cut them off
little below the surface Of the ground.
This may have to be done as often as
once week for one whole summer.
No weed or plant of any sort can live
a whole year withouta chance to spread
its leaves or green bark to the air. They
need light and air and in their struggle
to get it they will in one summer ex-
haust all the vitality they have below
the surface in sending up shoots to get
it and if deprived of it the nextsummer
they will not be seen.

Dear Sirs:-Fof u years my wife was
a martyr to that dread disease, Dyspep-
STA Nothing relieved her; physicians
were consulted and medical skill tried
without avail. One doctor advised a
change of climate, suggesting Manitoba
as desirable place. We acted upon
this advice, coming here two years ago.
The change of climate wrought change
indeed, but for the worse, as she was
soon confined to bed, and under the
care of two doctors, who asserted she
could live but a month longer. \
neighbor came to see her one day who
had been reading your Almanac. She
told her of the testimonials she read in
it, of the great amount of good they
were doing, and advised her to try a
box of Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills.
She did so, was relieved, kept improv-
ing, and is now able to do house work,
and continues the use Of Morse's Pills.
Yours gratefully,
GEO. Dunn.
