Miss Elsie Clews, daughter of the mil
honaire banker, has organized a class for
the benefit of the needy and distressed.
This class will be held mt her home
weekly.
1t is an idea of her own. Instead of
trying to get her friends to sew for the
poor, or anything of that sort, she simply
invites them to call on IA certain day each
week. The young men are given cup
of tea by her fair hands, and then they
must put contribution in the poor
box" close at hand.
Miss Clews has many buds and bellies
to help her with what she calls her
class. and each one has her own con-
tribution box, the contents of which

East Water street. and was lett chained
during the temporary absence of the
proprietor. He managed, however, to
free himself and walked over behind

he sampled the whisky, gin, wine and
various kinds of bitters. 1t WASH t long

tackled the cigar case and demolished
that, throwing the cigars about the

The monkeys screams and the noise
of shattered glass attracted crowd

A man of 81 years and a boy of as

with which Prince Ferdinand and his
subjects received the wee bit Of human

think this world an awful humbug.
Before he had chance to enjoy his
first meal he was frightened half to
death by the firing of lOl cannon under
his window. He had hardly dOnned his
swaddling clothes before he was con
demned to be Bearer of the Coaar of
the Order of St Alexander. The poor
child would have howled in protest, but
the royal decree informed him that as
the chief of three regiments of intan-
try, cavalry and artillery no such weak
ness would he tolerated. Some oTdina-
ly infant indul"ences might be permit
ted him as prince and duke, but as a
full fledged Knight of the First and

he must preserve the stern dignity of
his rank.

VARIETIES OF MARBLE.
Where the Different Kinds Are Found and
Their Relative Value.

The selection of marble for a mOnu-
ment is altogether u matter of taste.
The finest statuary marbles are found
in Italy and Greece, but are very eXpen-
sive, costing from so to $50 per cubic
foot. In the United States good statuary
marble has for several years been quar-
ried at West Rutland VT, where a
LAYER from three to four feet thick is in
terstratitied with 40 or so feet of cloud
ed marble The finest of statuary mar
BILE is found at PittsfOrd, Vt, where
there is bed 20 feet thick, from which
blocks have been taken capable Of TAX
ing very fine finish. This marble belt
extends north and south of Rutland
county, through Vermont and Massa-
chusetts, but III loses i'll quality in both
directions Toward the north it is finer
and harder, but less sound, and toward
the south it becomes COarser. Another
belt of white marble extends along the
TANKS of the Allcghanies, through a
part Of Massachusetts, through New
York and Mary land and into Virginia
beyond the Potomac river. lti Quarried
at various places i'll Westchester coun-
ty, N. y, and at Baltimore. At Ca
man. Conn, and at Lee, Mass, and
other places III New England, good

from Lee was used for the extension of
the capitol at Washington. Variegated
marbles are found i'll several localities

it increased i'll size rapidly, and soon

could do her no good, and simply pre-
scribed antiseptics to keep the place
clean. Both her grandmother and
aunt by the way, had died with can

the doctors told me that they would
not attempt to save her; that she was

her health very low, had one of the
most noted specialists of New York TO

hopeless and further treatment useless.

A Temperance Agitator In Austria Has to

American temperance agltatOrs would
not enjoy themselves i'll Austria A ma
tive of a small village after a long cat
aleptic trance year ago declared that
he had been to heaven and had been
commissioned by the Almighty to re-
turn and teach the peasants the wicked
ness of drinking spirits. Soon the en-
tire village took an oath of total abstl-
nence. The district governor commit
ted the man to the madhOuse, where
the doctors kept him for six months and
then declared him sane. He resumed
his agitation and in short time seven
villages had taken vows of abstinence.
The result was that number of iq
nor dealers to whom the government
had granted licenses refused to keep
their contracts. The district Judge
gave orders that the dangerous agitatOr
be arrested if caught preaching absti
nence. The man has not left his house
for weeks. DcputatiOns come to him
from far and wide to hear his words
and to repeat them when they return
home. The authorities are cOnsOling
the dealers by declaring that the peas
ants must soon drink again.

of individual artists, but of the British

a sad accident occurred in Nekoosa
Monday night in the Paper mill in
which Chas. Dougherty, a young man
about p years of age lost his life. He
came to Nekoosa last week in search of
employment and was put to work as ma
chine tender in which capacity he claim
ed he worked before. It appears the
accident occurred about one o'clock at
night while be was in the act of starting
the paper into the machine between
the large rollers. While thus employed
his left hand was caught between the
rollers and carried into the machine it's
full length. nThe arm was literally torn
from its soeA& and the man lived only
20 minutes. His home was at Penn Yam.
New York, where his widowed mother
resides.
Tie remains were deposited Tuesday
by undertaken Bogoger in the cemetery
in this city. Had it not been for COM
panion of the deceased there was
nothing upon the young mans person
to identify him Or his whereabouts. He
was termed a tramp paper maker.

Water Power interests Consolidated.

The water power owners met Satur-
day evening, March 2nd, in accordance
with the Board of Arbitrators award
and organized what will hereafter be
known as the "Consolidated Water
Power Co.," with capital stock of
$500, coo and over one-half of it paid in.
The Nash Bros. are the only ones who
had agreed to abide by the Boards
award and who have refused to enter
into the new company as agreed. We
understand they were notified to turn
over their deeds and become part of
the new company according to contract
and agreement. Unless they do within
a given time, action will be commenced
to force them to comply with their agree
ment. All those interested in the new
company, and the people in the Twin
Cities generally, are panied to know
that the Nash Bros. refuse to enter
amicably and that litigation is neces-
sary. We're it not for this impediment
the organization would be completed,
officers elected, and work on the new
contemplated dam be commenced at
once. Perhaps an amicable settlement
can yet be arrived at. The new COM
pany will receive the cordial support
and endorsement of the people gener-
ally, and the united interests of COM
pany and people furthered for mutual
profit and success

Arrested for Theft.

The sheriff received a telegram We'd
nesday afternoon from Malshfeld with
instructions to arrest Mrs. Calvert on
the Port Edwards train that afternoon.
The sheriff being out of town his deputy,
Geo. NJ. Hill, arrested her and took her
to jail Mrs. Lindahl searched the
woman and found $50 in paper money
in her stocking. The examination will
be held to-day. We called to see the
lady and she denies having stolen the
money and cannot account for its pres
ence on her person.
Mrs. Calvert is well known IN the
Twin Cities and this act of hers, if guilty
is the first one of its kind. Her friends
believe there must be some mistake,
yet the evidence so far is greatly against
her. The telegram read &c Arrest Mrs

WISCONSIN RIVER INTERESTS.
contained the following account of the
meeting held in that city Thursday:

The Wausau Central in its last issue
contained the following account of the
meeting held in that city Thursday:
A meeting of parties interested in
Wisconsin river business was held here
Thursday to agree, if possible, on some
proposed legislation pertaining to the
operation of the dams on the main
river and its tributaries. This was an
adjourned meeting which was held at
Tomahawk on Tuesday last, and at
which a committee was appointed to
formulate and report bill or plan of
action upon which all could agree and
unite to promote the welfare of every
locality and interest.
Among those in attendance we no.
ticed the following named gentlemen:
Mayor H. H. Foster, John Landers and
Geo. Curtis, Jr., of Merrill; F. P. Hixon,
of Lacrosse; Thos. E. Nash, John DAILY,
Geo. R. Gardner, B. r. Goggins, Geo. E.
Hoskinson and J. D. Witter, of Grand
Rapids; Geo. A. Whiting, of Neenah; ;
Owen Clark, J. L. Barker, c.. E. Ed
wards and w. T. Whiting, of Stevens
Point; L. NJ. Alexander, of Port Ed
wards; T. MacKinnon, F. Garrison and
n. Johnson, of Centralia; A. w. Brown,
of Rhinelander, and w. G.. Silverthorn
and Walter Alexander, of Wausau.
The committee was not able to agree
on any bill or plan and so reported. 1t
was understood that the bill which has
been introduced in the Assembly on
the subject of the control of all the
dams on the Wisconsin river and
its tributaries embodies the claim
and legislation proposed by those
interested mainly in hydraulic power,
and that those whose interests are
mainly that of the navigation of the
streams are satisfied without any
special legislation, but are willing to
afford such use of the water, which
they control by means of their dams,
as will not materially affect down
stream navigation for log driving and
other numbering operations. Senator
Neal Brown has introduced bill in the
Senate designated to accomplish the
same thing as that designated by the
Assembly bill, but neither of these
bills are acceptable to the logging and
numbering interests. The meeting ar
rived at no conclusion, and it now
looks like a contest before the legsla-
ture, although there are still some
prospects of avoiding it.

MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

Spring election will soon be upon us.
We hope there will be no disposition
shown to have but one ticket in the
field and that Peoples ticket. Let
the good people of the cities get
together in common caucus, select
good men to serve them, and elect
them without opposition. No set or
class of men should unite together to
further the interests of any particular
man, or set of men, for personal
aggrandisement or the furtherance of
principle except that of good govern
ment and efficient service. Our cities
have been well managed in the past,
may no mistakes be made this year, is
the wish of the REPORTER. Proper care
in the selection of men to serve the
people in every capacity must be used.

Patents Have Run Out.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of Tuesday
had the following good news:
The case of the Bate Refrigerator
company against Francis Sulzberger &
Co., upon which the question of Ameri-
can patents have been previously
issued, was decided to-day in an
exhaustive opinion by Justice Harlan.
1t is estimated that not less than
S6OO,O0O,0O0 of capital hinges upon the
decision which determines tie status of
many valuable patents.
The court held that the invention for
which Bate received patent was pre-
viously patented in a foreign country
and that the Uuited States patent did
expire with the foreign patents. The
decision is against the electric and
other patents involved in the decision
of this suit.
Among the patents affected are three
issued to the Western Union Telegraph
company on applications filed by
Thomas \. Edison. These inventions
became the property of the American
Bell Telephone company by the tele-
phone consolidation contract Nov. |,
1879.
This settles the telephone question.
The rates will now be reduced where
they ought to be-a competition basis.
