Jackson County Claims the Oldest Couple
in the state.
Black River Falls, Wis, Oct. 11.-[Spe-
cial Notwithstanding the claim of vari-
Gus localities throughout the state of
having the oldest married couple, that dis
tinction justly belongs to the town of
Albion, Jackson county Three miles
able little home. resides Lewis Darwin
and Amelia Darwin, his wife. The aged
couple have lived together for seventy
five years and a family of six children
bless the happy union. Three boys and
two girls still survive, they ranging from
20 down to 60 years of age.
Lewis Darwin was born at Montreal
is now 1O7 years old. His wife was
born at small place not far from Mon
treal, then known as "Peros' Isle" on
the 18th day of March, 1894, and though
in feeble health today she has passed her
1O5th mile post on her journey to the
other shore several days ago. She was
totally blind, but a few years ago she
received her second sight and up to within
a recent period she has been able to do
her own work, while the old gentleman
has TIP to the last year been as spry as
a cricket and could dance an old-fashioned
breakdown that would knock the spots
off a boy of twenty. He is a typical
Frenchman of the old school-polite as the
proverbial French dancing master. Grand
pa Darwin could and did teach etiquette
to the lumber boys in the early days of
pioneer civilization on Black river, as
he has been a resident of this vicinity for
fifty years and over.
Although time has dealt gently with
him his frame, through means OF that
robust character, is shrunk and Withered
and his health is giving away.

REMAINS IN GREEN BAY.
Business Association Decides to Assist
the Murphy Lumber Company.

the Murphy Lumber Company.
Green Bay, Wis, Oct. 11.-[Special. J.
An important meeting of the Business
Mems association was held last evening,
the object being to consider the propo-
sition of the Murphy Lumber company
to rebuild their mill. The proposition,
which is as follows, was accepted:
First The sum of $4,000 to be given by
the association to be used in dredging and
repairing their docks and grounds.
Second A strip of land along the south
side of the present site of the company, 300
feet wide
leges for ten years along the east shore of
Fox river, from the mill site to East river.
The association is not certain just
how the $4,000 can be raised, and the
belief was expressed by most of the
speakers that the city as whole should
do something toward retaining the COM
pany here. In order to discover how
this might best be accomplished a COM
mittee of ten was appointed to look into
the matter thoroughly and report at an
other meeting of the association to be
held Saturday evening. 1t is believed
that some plan can be devised by which
the city may purchase some of the lots
now owned by the Business Mems asso-
citation and the money raised III that
way. The land required by the lumber
company can be procured without diff
Guilty, so that there will be no trouble
on that score. Simon Murphy, one of
the members of the firm, said the COM
pany would have to have speedy as
surances that the amount required could
be raised. The business men are deter
mined that this shall be done.
