The Shu.lShurg Pick and Cad SAYS:
The Philharmonic Lady Quartette, Of
Shullsburg, will give one of their
concerts at Hazelgreen, tomorrow
evening. We can assure our Hazel
green friends that they will be de-
lighted with the entertainment and
that is worthy of liberal patronage.
BY the way we notice that the
members of the Quartette and Miss
Fannie Crabb, the elocutionist, have
had their photographs taken by
Messrs. Cross 4 Son, of that city, to
be used in connection with the adver.
tising of their entertainments. The
pictures are fine works of art and re-
ilect great credit on the artists.
Cross q Son are now located for Il
few weeks in Mineral Point, on the
lot west of the L. 5. Hotel. They in
ylte inspection of their work.
Cabinet photographs only $3.50 per
dozen.

Another Old Resident Departs.

On Tuesday morning, July S0th
about o'clok, Miss Adelaide Whit
ney died at the home of her brother
Robert Whitney, in this city. De-
ceased was native of Massachusetts,
and on the 9th of May last attained
50 years ofage. She came to Mineral
Point 81 years ago, and since then
has resided here with her brother.
For Ii years she has been an invalid,
confined to her home, and conse-
quently was known only to the older
residents. She bore her protracted
affiiction with christian patience and
fortitude; uncomplainingly waiting
through the weary years for the or
der of release.

Bright Prospects Grow Brighter.

The past week has added new as
surances that the Mineral Point Fair
of 1895 will be a great success. Mem
hers of the Association have res
ponded to the assessment sufficiently
to encourage the officers to renewed
zeal, and stimulating local interest
that cannot fail of good results.
Horses are being brought here to
train on the track, which is in excel
lent condition, and being improved
daily. Prospective exhibitors in the
several departments are inquiring
for space, and revival of interest
in the fair is manifest on all sides.
1t having gone out that Mineral
Point will maintain the fair. people
know that she can be depended on
to do so. This city is sometimes slow
to move, but her record is that when
she undertakes to do a thing it will
be surely aud fully done. We may
cite the reunions held here as exam
pies. Because of their completeness
and unapproachable success, other
cities of southwestern Wisconsin, be-
ing conscious of their inability to
do as we'll, have declined to attempt
it, and reunions are abandoned until
Mineral Point shall invite another.
After the organization of the S. w.
Wis. |. A., and its first fair in this
city, it at once took first place as
a representative of the agricultural
and industrial interests of this part
of the state. In seasons when other
like associations failed entirely or
survived only by scaling premium
lists, this society, meeting the same
obstacles of unfavorable weather and
crop failure, paid every demand in
full. This bright record will not be
broken. Whatever the weather or
however stringent the times, Mineral
Point Fairs will continue, and every
exhibitor viii receive the premiums
awarded him in full.
The Association was never more
vigorous than at the presnnt time, or
had better prospects of life and pros
perity. The motto is: MAKE good
fairs, give liberal premiums, pay all
demands in full, under all circum-
stances" The fairs will not be run
with a view TO direct cash profits, but
first of all to crafty and compensate
its patrons, and benefit the people
who contribute to the development
and upbuilding Of the surrounding
country.

Call for Organization of Miners.

The Highland Press suggests an
organization of minersand mine land
owners of Southwestern Wisconsin,
for the purpose of securing better
prices for ore. 1t proposes mass
meeting of parties interested. An
organization of this sort is being per-
fected in the mining district of
Southwestern Missouri and Kansas,
and it is claimed that this movement
has already affected the price of ore
there, which is better than in Wis
consin, and within a dollar per ton
of the prices prevailing in 80 and 81.
At Joplin, Mo-, the quotations last
week We're; lead, per 1000 $3.50;
black jack, per ton S2l; dry bone per
ton SIS.
The scheme contemplates the en-
ployment of asayers, that the metal
value oi ores of each mine may be
known to the miner, and the price
thereof fixed by the association ac-
cording to per cent. of zinc, and the
market price Of oxide and spelter.
How that price is to be obtained by
the miner or from whom is not eX-
planned. If it were practicable to
form an organization 50 compact as
to withhold from ale all ores until
price fixed by the owners could be
obtained, it might be good thing
for the miners. But that cannot be.
Therefore, the only basis upon which
an organization can be made surely
effective must contemplate smelling
works OH a cooperative plan, where
the miner can deposit his ore and re-
ceive payment proportioned to the
price at which the product of that
o.e can be disposed Of. This wotld
rfcessitate large capital, and the
highest integrity and rare business
sagacity in its management.
IA successful and satisfactory COM
bination of miners, however desir-
able, seems improbable. The system
Of mining in Wisconsin and Missouri
are widely different. There the ores
are found in more compact regular
bodies, within d smaller radius of
territory mine owners there are
fewer in number and more generally
men Of capital. They might form an
effective combination. while Wiseon-
miners could not.

ranged, The game was an interest

Minors capture of q long fly to left

game. Chamley had no opportunity

THE Iowa County Fair of 1895, at

should be attended by every citizen
Of the county who can possibly 70.
1t Is the first fair Of the season in
this vicinity, and the officers are do
ing everything within their power to
make it the greatest meeting ever
held on the grounds. The most lib
eral premium list ever put out by tho
society Is the chief attraction. See
retary John M. Reese is already as-
sured Of lively competition IN every
department, especially for the liberal
purses for races. The county fair
having hitherto fallen on the same
date as the Darlington fair, tho peo-
pie Of southern Iowa county have
been divided III attendance between
the two places. This year there is
nothing to divert the people Of this
section elsewhere, and the southern
part Of the county should, and doubt
less viii be more fully represented at
Dodgeyille than ever before.

WEEK IN WALL STREET.
Changers the Strong Feature in
RaiIrOad Stocks

NEW YORK, July 12.-Bradstreet's
financial review tomorrow will say:
while the undertone of speculation in
the stock market has been strong
throughout the week, there has been
continued absence of public or foreign
interest, and trading has been almost
entirely professional in character.
This has given further opportunity for
bearish manipulation, although, save
in a few instances. the net result
seems to be only a tangible increase in
the short interest. The fact that Lon
don takes no part, and seems unwill-
ing to interest itself in Americans is
an unfavorable feature of the situa-
ton. Railroad authorities in the West
are encouraged with the outlook for
heavy business as soon as the crops
begin to move. Chicago Gas continued
to be the chief object of interest.
There was a further decline early in
the week to 523ac, from which there
was rally to 571sc. Sugar was also
manipulated with vigor, the price adj
vancing to ia only to have a sharp
decline to 107H. American Tobacco
was strong. In railroad stocks the
features have been the grangers, which
were strong on short covering, in
duced by the crop report. After this
Improvement, however. no fresh out
side buying appeared, and some heavy
lines OF shorts were again put OUT

OWNERSHIP OF THE PITTSBURG,

KEY.
BETWEEN TWO BIG SYSTEMS.
Vanderbilt Line to the North and
the Pennsylvania on the
South.

CLEVELAND, O., July 12.-Some
they know why Calvin S. Brice
bought the Pittsburg, Akron &
Western road a short time ago. They
claim to know with certainty that
he is forming a great railroad SyS-
tenn which will be the shortest
route between Chicago and New
York, and have ramifications to
many of the great business
centers The line will be between
the Vanderbilt system on the north
and the Pennsylvania on the south,
and will cross the Erie in several
places. The Cleveland, Akron &
Columbus is the link connecting with
with the Buffalo, Rochester & Pitts
burg railroad, which has built line
to Clearfield, Pa, and got close con-
nection with the Beach Creek rail-
road, which feeds into the Philadel-
phia & Reading at Williamsport.
Thus is afforded an outlet to tide
water. A branch will be built from
Dubois to Butler, Pa. The link be-
tween Newcastle, Pa, and Akron, O.,
is in control of Hon. D. P. Reighard,
of Pittsburg. A short line will have
to be built to the Chicago branch
of the Wabash railway. The pur-
pose, it is declared, is to amalgamate
the lines from the Wabash connec-
ton to Clearield, Pa, in one big
corporation.
