An effort is being made be the citi-
zens Of Moundsville to secure the par.
don of II. d. Christie, now serving a
life sentence in the penitentiury for
the murderof Officer Glenu mt Wheel
ing in 1883. The case has always
been mysterious one to people fa-
miliar with the facts Christie and
Kelly, his'partner, were convicted in
the Circuit Court of Ohio county up,
on circumstantial evidence and the
fact that they were both lramps and
had bad regulations had as much to
do with their being found guilty as
the evidence in the trial.

PROTECT YOUR EYES.
The director Of the Minnesota Agri-

The director Of the Minnesota Agri-
cultural Station is engaged in what seems
to be an important experiment in sheep
husbandry. In pasturing sheep in the
ordinary way an acre is allowed to two
sheep, but Prof. Shaw is feeding sixteen
sheep on one acre at the experiment sta
ton and bringing them forward in ex-
cellent condition. He divides the acre
by portable fences into four equal parts.
Two of the plots were sown to rye last
fall, and in the spring, when the rye was
we'll out of the ground, six full-grown
sheep and ten lambs were turned on one
of the plots. AS soon as they had grazed
the rye down they were removed to the
second quarter, and by the time this was
eaten over thoroughly the first quarter
was ready for the second time. This al
formation was repeated three times, after
which the first quarter was plowed and
sown with mixture of corn and rape.
From the second quarter the sheep went
to the third, which had been planted
| with oats and peas, while the fourth was
sown with rape alone. The sheep have
not only done we'll, but the flock had to
be largely increased to keep down the
fourth quarter. When this was exhausted
the first plot was ready again. A COM
bination of oats and sorghum is also
highly recommended.-St. Louis Globe

central Wisconsin will be mixed up in
it on both sides. The only game of the

Laundry Burned Out.

A large board sign bearing the infor-
nation Twin City Steam Laundry"
placed at the very top of fre-scarred,
water beaten building on South French
St, Centralia. is about the only whole
article left to indicate that business
was once carried on there. A little
after three O'Clock Saturday afternoon a
fire alarm gathered crowds of people to
the steam laundry operated by Mr.. Jos.
BOheim only to find the same one mass
Of flames, and many were the men that
stood about helplessly watching their
fancy shirts and late style collars go up
III ballons of smoke withouta parachute
to return.
The fire started from the use of
gasoline connected with the ironing
machine. The gasoline tank sets back
Of the machines and the ironers are
heated by rubber tube attachments
running to the tank. Mr.. Boheim
touched a match to the burners as is
usual when he starts to ironing; on the
instant the flames shot down the rubber
tubing to the floor and ignited every
thing in reach A brave effort was
made to eXtinguish the blaze but it
only helped to spread it the more.
Mr.. Boheim grasped the tank in an
attempt to throw it out of the window,
but it was already so hot he was forced
to drop it and some gasoline run out on
the floor. Then the flames took a shoot
which ended all hopes Of stopping
then. Mr.. Boheim tried to save an
armful of shirts and barely escaped
He was obliged TO jump through one of
the windows, his hair badly singed aud
hands somewhat burned. The Contra
liza fire company were soon on the
grounds and gave excellent service.
Two strong streams of water were
played upon the flames and III half an
hours time the fire was under control.
Only charred shell remains. The
1nsldeS were completely scooped out.
No insurance on machinery or building.
The owners had tried hard to get
insurance but could find no company
to take them on account of the gasoline
used. The loss is complete, excepting
the boiler and engine which were not
injured. About 225 shirts were burned
in addition to other articles. Up stairs
Mr.. Boheim had bed room suit and
all the winter clothing of his family
and this was also destroyed. The
building was owned by Mr.. Rick.
Mr.. Boheim had an excellent bust
ness started and was hard worker,
being up early and late. He will con-
tinue picking up laundry right along
ard has made arrangements at Merrill
to have his work done until he can get
started again. He contemplates build
ing.
A little more than an hour before the
fire Mr.. McCallum, of Neenah, left the
Boheim laundry with arrangements
about completed for the purchase of
the business. King fire stopped the
sale.
Since writing the above F. E. Murray,
of Stevens Point, and w. J. McCallum,
of Neenah, have purchased Joseph
Boheim remaining machinery and good
will IN the laundry business, CentraIia.
They will be ready for business October
lst. Further particulars next week.

break-water about $50 feet below the
main dam.
When finished this will be one of the
largest distractions of lis kind along
the Wisconsin river. Total length will
be 1850 feet with a y foot head. 1t
reaches about 20 feet in the highest
places. The dam is % feet on the base,
excepting one wing 26S feet long which
is 80 feet on the base, and 2o0 feet, the
sluice dam at west end, which runs %
feet on the base. The Nekoosa dam
has a length of $50 feet, is 81 feet on
the base and has 20 foot head
The island and the shore at either
end of the sluice dam has been banked
up with sand and fronted with rock.
1t is higher than the main dam and the
stream will not run over here except III
cases of exceptionally high water. The
top of the embankment will be seeded
down and planted with trees so as to
hold it firm. There is about 400 feet to
be seeded this way
The foundations for the water wheels
of the mill are nicely started. Brick
layers are at work on the big building,
but this part of the plant is not expected
to be in running order before next
June.
The big brick smoke stack is reaching
heaveuward and is completed more
than half way. 1t is y foot square at
the bottom and will be 100 feet high.
\ call at the office found the book
keeper, Mr.. John Schnable, busy
writing out checks for the $50 men on
the pay roll, Tuesday the 10th being
remuneration day. Mr.. n. Johnson
was also in the office and his guiding
hand is noticeable in every direction.
And SO the good work goes on.
