Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1895-12-05

THE little town OF Rewey IL in
volNed'in semi-religious discussions
thatfurnish fruitful themes for news
/ paper correspondents, and threaten
to disturb the peace and harmony of
that enterprising burg, First, I. G.
Richmond, the great light of polit-
zeal prohibition, went down there
and gave discourse fayoring agnos-
ticism, and antagonizing orthodox
religion. TO this Rev.J. Harlcastle,
7. Nj, minister, made reply. a
correspondent reviewed the Rev.
gentleman unfayorable through the
Dodgeville Chronicle, and In reply
the preacher uses a column in the
same paper of last week. We fail to
see any good accomplished in that
controversy.
Next, one Father Francis was an
nounced to enlighten the people
of Rewey as To what he learned
while "seven years pfiest.p There
seems to have been some misunder-
standing between the "Rev. Father
and the trustees of the NJ. r.. church.,
In which he was to speak, regard
| ingadmission regulations. The Rev.
| Father" lost his temper, called one
Of the trustees a dummy and a
"blockhead.n No lecture was deliy-
cred such as expected, and more un-
, happiness 70 the community resulted.

songs and chestnut stories, would b.
better for what ails Reweyites than
lectures on religious and phllosophie
subjects.

WE notice that the official board
OF one Of the Dodgeville churches
has set apart two afternoons week
for the congregation 70 call on the
preachers's wife at tho parsonage.
That's right. II the boards can reg
ulate the preachers wives In addition
to regulating the preachers, what
may we not expect next. Yet, we
like the idea Of ladies setting apart
certain day to receive calls, espec-
tally those in public stations. II II
was known that Mrs A. was ,lt home
to callers on Tuesday, Mrs. Is. on
Wednesday, Mrs. q. on Thursday
and Mrs. ID. on the first Friday In
the month, and so forth, II would
save much work and worry. We
would like to see the ladies Of MINI
eral Point try it. Suppose our
Ladies Reading club discuss this
plan and If feasible start 1t.

Benton Times: The zinc works
at Waukegan have commenced
operations again and vast quantity
of ore will now be used by the two
smelling companies, the one 1T Min
erai Point belonging 10 the Same
people. The plant at Waukegan II
in charge Of VIM. "A. Jones and most
Of the ore for that plant Il purchased
by John Delaney, Of Montfort.
The foregoing IL misleading. Only
spelter zinc Is manufactured at the
! Waukegan works, and that branch
has been run almost continually.
No oxide has been manufactured
there and no drybone has been pnr-
chased for that plant since its sale
by Mr.. Lanyon. The statement that
w. A. Jones is in charge Of the
Wankegan works Is erroneous. He
buys blackjack In this ore district
for the Waukegan plant, that's all
