MINERAL PoINT WISCONSIN THURSDAY FEBRUARY IA lss5

HENRY LENAHAN died at the home
of his mother, in Mineral Point, last
Saturday afternoon; aged Al years.
Deceased was raised in this city, and
resided here until about II years ago,
when he went to Aberdeen, Dakota.
There he located and worked II
homestead and tree claim, securing
title to both, and taught school du-
ring the winter seasons. His worth
and intelligence were soon recog-
nized by his pioneer neighbors,
among whom he was much esteemed
and looked up to for his sound rea-
soning powers and good Judgment.
He will be remembered as one of
the best young men of this city,
where many join in sympathy with
his bereaved mother, brother and
sisters. He had been afflicted for
some time with diabetes, and came
to receive the tender care of loving
ones at home through the final strug-
gle. Funeral was held Tuesday
morning, conducted by Rev. Father
0'Keefe.
EVERYBODY III Iowa county Will
agree that in securing a position for
Ole Steensland among legislative
employees, Assemblyman Jones gave
va f.A of hn Ia
serving men in the county. AS a
good citizen, a superior soldier, and
a consistent, staunch republican,
Mr.. Steensland has few peers. AL
though he served nineteen months
in southern prisons Mr.. Steensland
hasnever pension. Although
twice set up against his will for
county office and defeated by un-
worthy so-called republicans, he has
never failed to do his full duty for
the party of his choice. The TRI-
BUNE rejoices that he has been re-
cognized and regrets only that the
appointment secured for him is not
more prominent and lucrative.
IiIE women of the reading club
wish it understood that the refusal
of the city council to accept thepub-

interfere with the progress Of their
work. The library will still be Il

constantly received, and the work of
preparing them for distribution is
going Oh as rapidly as work reqnir-
ing lnethodical classification can. 1t
is hoped they may be ready for the
public by the last Saturday in Feb
ruary. The ladies hope those whose
subscriptions are unpaid will remem-
berto hand them in at either bank
on or before Feb. 18th, as promised

Insane Asylum Raided.


Last night, about early candle light,
superintendent and Mrs. Perkins, of
the Iowa county insane asylum, We're
called upon 70 answer applications
for admission to the institution by
about 70 people from Mineral Point.
In answer to proper questions, twas
soon found that the applicants were
not suffering from any mental afllic-
tion. A lightness of the heels was
their only malady, for the treatment
OF which there accompanied the ap-
plicants Prof. Anderson and his or
chestra. Readily grasping the needs
of the occasion, Mr.. Perkins and wife
were soon prepared 10 meet Il. The
orchestra was soon given opportuni-
~ TO operate, and did so in Il manner
that had the desired effect. 10 sns-
tain the patients through che ordeal
substantial and inviting refresh
ments were served from baskets
brought by the ladies Of the party.
Before sunrise Of Thursday morning
all the patients We're pronounced
cured, and returned to their homes.

Death Claims a Bright Girl,

The Council and the Library.

All honor to the enterprising ladies
and the good people through whose
zeal and generosity the foundation
OF what promises to become yalu-
able public library for Mineral Point
has been laid. AS in the past, so in
the future the TRIBUNE will contrib
ute its mite to the up-building and
maintenance of the enterprise, and
hope to see it realize the ambition Of
its progenitors. But we cannot ac-
cord with those who condemn the
common council for declining to ac-
cept the library for the city on terms
and conditions proposed. The fact
that the aldermen individuality and
in the capacity of private citizens
contributed to the library fund,
should vindicate them from suspicion
that they are prejudiced against, or
are Indifferent to the advantages and
desirability of a public library. Act
ing in their official capacity, they
were unquestionably governed by Il
desire to do their duty. 1t is to be as
sumed that they gave the matter
careful consideration; that they are
well informed as to the condition of
city affairs, and acted with proper
regard therefor.
The following outline statement Of
the financial status of the city shows
that after paying fixed and unavoid-
able charges out of the present tax
levy, there will be available for
streets, sidewalks, and all incidental
expenses of the city for 1894. only
about $500. From this it is apparent
that, with most economical manage
ment, there is almost sure to be a
large deficiency before the year ex-
pires-probably as large as last year,
when it was over $4,000. 1t is estimat-
ed that not less than $1,000 will be re-
quired for streets and sidewalks, and
$1,000 for repair of school buildings.
To this add $500 more for incidentals,
and it is seen that the money avail
able must be exhausted before the
year closes. Following is the state
ment referred to:

THE Farmers Institute to be held

by strong corps Of assistants. Dim

is available for streets and sidewalks,
repairs Of school buildings and other
probable expenses. Our taxes are up
to the limit allowed by the charter,
3 per cent. of valuation. To raise
more revenue is possible only by
raising the assessment of property.
The TRIBUNE would favor a uniform
raising sufficient to insure covering
the probable deficit for 1895 and to
provide for the full expense Of 1896.
That would mean 20 per cent. higher
taxes next year than this. 1t is
donbtful il such course would be
approved.
But, says,some one, theproposition
to turn the library over to the city
provided that it should be managed
for two years without expense to the
city. That proposition contemplated,
as we understand it, only that there
should be no expense for Librarian
services or hall Trent during that time
il the library continued in the rooms
where it now is. II new books were
added the city would have to pay
for them. That new books should
be ADDED each year to make it 4
library such as would be creditable
to the city, and satisfactory to its
founders, is hardly questionable.
With no additions for two years the
library would be a disappointment.
The addition annually Of new books
to the limit Of the law for such pllr-
poses, one mill on each dollar OF
assessment, the council regarded, and
we think properly, as involved IN
acceptance Of the proposition. Other
wise consideration Of it two years
hence would be more timely than
now.
There are other grounds on which
the action of the council can be de-
Tended but this article already eN-
ceeds the limit designed for it.

Some plumbers employed by Chris

In the course of construction and owned
by Herman Stroebel, a saloon keeper
who conducts a place nearby on Or
chard street A fire started and spread
rapidly, causing a disastrous fire yes
terday afternoon at 240 O'clock. A
plumber went to the basement, and
when he saw the flames ran out and
gave the alarm. The flames spread
rapidly, completely destroying the new
building. A carpenters vest con tanning
a gold watch was burned. The building
was uninsured. The flames then spread
to the house of Fred HowshieId, the
carriage manufacturer, two-story
structure. This was completely Quilted,
and a loss OF $4,000 sustained. The in
surance on the building had been allow
ed to lapse three days ago. The house
on the other side of the new house,
owned by George L. Atwater, was dam
aged $1,500. The loss on the new build

plication to the president, In cases OF
visiting his relatives or on business,
furloughs are often given for thirty or
! sixty days No drinking is allowed on
the premises, and being twelve miles
from the nearest saloon, or any place
where intoxicants are sold, we are trou-
bled very little by dissipation. To the
limited furloughs, the length of time be-
| tween them and the distance from the
| city, we attribute to a great extent the
sobriety that exists within our Home.
In fact we have received men who We're
powerless to resist strong drink, but
under our management we have entire
~ reformed them, and they could now
be self-sustainlng In the battle Of life,
Another thing to which we attribute
| large part of our success is in requiring
all who are physically able to do more
| or less work every day. 1t is good from
a sanitary point of view, occupies them
mentally, and keeps them from sitting
| about idly, brooding over the misfor-
| tunes of life that has overtaken them.
We require them to- clean their own
| rooms, keep the halls clean, assist in
the cooking and dining room, and gene
rally to care for the barracks Besides
we have a garden of about twenty-five
acres, and in which we raise all vegeta-
bles used at the Home We require the
inmates to work this garden, and find
that they are very much interested in
what they raise-knowing that they
are to get everything produced, We
also have poultry connected with the
Home, which is looked after by the in
mates. We find this also interests
them, knowing they are to be the reci-
pient of every egg laid and chicken
raised.
But to answer questions one, two,
three and four under the heading Cen
eral Policy Interesting to All Homes"
will say;
First think all Homes should be
supported by the respective states or
the general government. but none
should be received in the Homes who
were mot honorable soldiers, and whose
regulations have not been good since
the war AS to wives, widows and chill
dren of soldiers, the INDECENT should be
cared for, but as yet the south is too
poor. and they are too numerous for us
to undertake their care.
Second-Soldiers, wives and widows
should not receive the benefits of a
home and also a pension. Both might,
and doubtless would lead to idleness
and the raising of a nation Of drones.
Third-To lessen the uses Of intoXi-
cants rigid rules must be enforced in
mates must be removed from tempta-
ton, and strong coffee and tobacco giv-'
EN- as antidotes.
Fourth-One house should be built
large enough to hold all inmates, and
that should be in charge of one com
mandant- giving better results.
in the care of the inmates spiritually
mentally and morally, and with a great
deal less cost. Very respectfully,
