BACK. FROM MEXICO.
Charles FueIIer Reports the Pam
American Operating Regularly.

American operating ISct5 uissEAss
Charles F'ueller, one of the stock
holders of the Pan American Mining
and Milling company, a local corpora
ton operating in the state of Sonora,
Mexico, returned yesterday from tho
properties Of the company, where he
has been for the past several months
making experiments with an improved
cyanide process. He reports that the
Pan American mill is operating regu-
larly and turning out the usual amount
of cyanide product monthly. There hal
been a shortage of water recently and
some delays were caused early in the
month, but it is now thought that all
difficulties have been removed. While
at the plant of the company Mr.. Fuel
Ter made some experiments with what
is known as forced percolation, an aid
to the action of the cyanide, and pro-
nounces it a success. On account of
the scarcity of water. however, it is
not at all likely that the process will
be adopted by the company for the
present.

Germany Looking Towards Interna-
tiOnaI BimetaIIism.

Berlin, May 21-The lower house of the
Prussian diet, today, by a vote of ISL to
90, adopted the motion of DR.. Otto Arendt,
urging the government to take steps in
favor Of the international settlement Of
the currency question, with a. view of Sc
curing international bimetallism.
The house also adopted the amendment
proposed by Baron Won SeidiitZ, member
of the privy council, TO the effect that
Germany is only to act in connection with
Great Britain.
DIR. Miguel, minister of finance, said the
governments standpoint had already been
explained by the chancellor. The gov
eminent admitted the disadvantages ariS-
ing from the depreciation in the value of
silver and would endeavor to counteract
them by international negotiations. The
chancellor, he said, was prepared to COM
1nence the negotiations forthwith, but the
chancellor did not consider 1t advisable TO
enter at that time into the detailed pro-
posals. In any case he thought it doubt
full whether bimetallism would lead to all
Increased price of cereals. DR.. Arendts
motion was then adopted

TEA PARTY.

A pretty ''tea" was given Friday
afternoon last at the residence of Mrs.
B. R. Goggins, Centralia, in honor of
the birthday anniversary of Miss Alice
King, at present attending the Normal
School in Stevens Point. Only few of
this young lady's friends were invited,
and the fortunate ones assembled and
made merry with her, extending best
wishes for many happy returns of the
day. We did not learn definitely, but
it was somewhere between the st to
-th year of her existence that they
celebrated. The interior of the Goggins
home was very nicely arranged for the
occasion and the tea tables were made
especially attractive and tidy. They
were presided over by Mrs. Goggins
and Mrs. 0. 7. Hougen. 1t was just a
lovely time that those present reported
and high compliments were paid the
hostess as an entertainer. Miss King
received numerous pretty and useful
gifts, that could well start anyone upon
another life-mile rejoicing with the
favored ones. Those present were:
Misses May Emmons, Nettie Wheelan,
Mary Edwards, Jennie Rothman,
Lillian Hatcher, Carrie Brlere, Pearl
st. Amour. Florence Philleo, Maggie
Goggins, Mae Goggins. Mae Schall.
Miss King returned to her school
duties at the Point Monday morning.

Fresh Looking Women.

\ recent magazine article declares
that the city woman is much more
successful than her country sister in
concealing the ravages of time and
holding that firm monster at bay.
The farmer wife, from hard work and
a monotonous life, does fade quickly
but the freshest looking women live in
quiet country towns. They have no
wear or tear of nerves; they are usually
provided with the absolute necessities
for their very modest wants; they have
few occasions for worries or distraction
of mind. And they keep girlish
appearance until they die, or until they
have reached the years of grand
motherhood. This is no exaggeration
the writer saw few days ago, such a
woman, grandmother, and certainly
possessed of some SO years of her own,
yet who looked, in her shady hat and
light autumn gown, not one day oyer
%. She had led peaceful, negotiating
sort Of existence in a little village, with
no great family cares, although she was
poor and the mother of a number of
children. There are a number of
women like her in every such country
place. They never SEEN, to those out
in the world, to really live, but only
to vegetate. But that is at least, a
healthful life, as their faces and youth
full figures prove.

This is the Way to Talk.

The Madison Journal has the follow
ing to say about local telephone
companies:
The Standard Telephone & Electric
company, of this city, has just put in an
exchange at Menomonee. Nearly all
the subscribers to the Bell com pany
deserted it and took the Standard. The
Bell company offered to supply to the
jail, court house and county asylum
telephones free of expense for year,
but the board Of supervisors refused to
accept them. The people generally are
not in very good temper oyer the ex-
tortions that have been so long prac-
ticed by the Bell monopoly. 1t is to
the public advantage to encourage new
companies. If they are not sustained
the old rates will be charged again, Just
as soon as competition is stopped. In
this city the new telephone exchange
will furnish a greatly improved service
at low rates. 1t should be cheerfully
supported and every Bell telephone
ordered out no matter what offers may
be made to have them retained Had
not the new company started, the rates
would have been kept up as high as
eyer.

John b. Arpin & Co.

Is the title of new real estate firm
recently organized in this city, consist
Ing of John B. Arpin, of Grand Rapids,
and the realty firm Buckley, Buehner &
Buckley, of Milwaukee. They have
established two offices, one in Milwau-
kee conducted by Buckley, Buehner &
Buckley, and the other branch office
here in the First National Bank
building where John 3. Arpin can be
found in personal direction of affairs
The new company will deal in farm,
hardwood, marsh and timber lands
located in Central Wisconsin and prin-
cipally in the counties of Wood, Juneau
and Portage. At present they have the
sale of the extensive Arpin marsh and
high lands, and are making all effort to
colonize Clark & Scott's lands in Portage
and Wood counties. Clark & Scott, of
Rudolph, own between five and six
thousand acres in this county and the
northwestern part of Portage county in
the town of Carson.
Buckley, Buehner & Buckley are
veterans in the real estate business and
have been identified with many deals
in this section during the past SIX
months. Their firm has been in exis-
tence for four or five years back and
they are known to be hustlers. They
make it business to attract desirable
foreigners to the state and settle them
upon farming land. They advertise
extensively in the foreign papers and
are instrumental in colonizing a number
of persons a week. In this line the new
company expects to do much toward
populating Wood county. The land is
for the most part hardwood cleared of
timber and is stump land.
John B. Arpin, who will conduct the
office in this city, is a young man of
thorough business methods. He has
been trading in lands quite extensively
of late, and though comparatively new
as a real estate dealer, has a shrewd
understanding of good soils which
cannot fail of making him capable to
render excellent service in the company
he has entered as associate partner. He
holds third interest in the remainder
of a 2400 acre tract in Juneau county,
1900 acres of which have already been
sold to actual settlers. John is well
liked here and his many friends no
doubt join with us in wishing him and
the new firm success in all transactions.

Experiment Station.

Geo. n. Wood has sold his 400 acre
tract of land lying northeast Of Bearss
Station on the G. NJ. & ST. P. railroad in
Wood county to Prof. F. H. King, OF
the University Of Wisconsin, Madison,

Cranberry Experiment Station.

The Wisconsin Cranberry Growers
Association have decided to make an
experiment with wind mills as means
Of lifting water for flooding purposes.
They have secured one mill of the
Baker Mfg. Co. Of Evanville, Wisconsin,
and one from the Aer Motor Co. of
Chicago, which have been set up on
lands belonging to said association.
Both mills have 80 foot towers with II
foot wheels. A meter has been attach
ed to each to register the amount of
water each mill raises.
Two wells 10 feet in diameter and 10
feet deep have been dug in which there
is an average of s feet of water. They
also have a large reservoir i'll which
they store all water raised. II these
wind mills can lift sufficient amount
of water IN given time to warrant a
sufficient Gupply Of water it will be but
a short time until all growers will have
them on their marshers. The outcome
will be watched with considerable
interest.

rlr. Edward Huban.

The Milwaukee Journal in recent
issue published the following reminis-
cences and early experiences of Mr..
Edward Huban who resides in this city:
Edward Huban, of Grand Rapids, was
formerly one of the lumbermen who
operated in the upper Yellow river
country, doing his saving at Werner,
the little town at the mouth Of the
river, and shipping by raft to the lower
markets. He is full of "reminiscences
of those active years, and does not hesi-
tate to tell a good story on himself
when he has an opportunity. On one
occasion he was encountered by deal
er in one of the Mississippi river towns
who had purchased feet from him on
a previous trip. The purchaser declared
that the lumber was not up to grade
and demanded that the seller rectify
the matter.
"Rectify?" said the Irish lumberman,
with scorn, "rectify? I ractifes moth
ing. Do you think I am distiller?"
On one occasion Huban came into
Grand Rapids from his camp for sup
plies and stopped at well-known hotel
that was in those days the resort for the
gamblers whoiufested the country. He
looked the "greenborn" to perfection.
Wading into the bar room 'cussing' the
cold and bad roads, he found three card
sharpers waiting fol somebody to bite
The landlord was professional and
made 1t as interesting for his company
as possible, but he was staunch friend
of Huban and not above having his Joke
when it came handy. So he hailed the
new conner as Farmer -" and asked
what he brought in. "Only bit of
pork" said the farmer. After he
thawed out and began to ask what was
going on that would serve to pass the
evening pleasantly, one Of the ''board-
ers' suggested that time was hanging
heavy on their hands also and that it
might be whiled away with social
game. The farmer was agreeable, but
he did not know much about cards ex-
That the others did not tplay; their game
was poker. 1t was "a game that he did
not understand" like All Sin, but the
farmer was persuaded by his new
friends, assisted by the landlord, tc AXE
a hand, being told that it was game
| easily learned. The student was very
awkward II getting on to the points in
the game, but he learned, and while he
was learning the stakes came his wav
Whenever he concluded to end the bet
ting he called, and every time he did so
remarked that he had what he guessed
was high, low, jack and the game"
Finally the professionals tried their arts
determined to have the farmers money
but they lost their own, and afterwards
learned that they had been taken in by
one of the cleverest poker players in
! the river country. The landlord told
the story with great gusto up to the day
of his death, years after. and always re-
marked that for seeming ignorance
when he had purpose in view, "Saucy
Pat' as he was generally called, beat
everything he had ever seen.
