loved the utmost confidence and good
will of his friends, who are legion. He
has that happy faculty of gaining
friends and keeping them. While yet
a young man, Mr.. Weiss has an ex
tensive business experience, his train
ing in this respect we'll qualifying him
to fulfill the duties Of register or any
like office. His capability stands I'M
questioned. For long term of years
Mr.. Weiss has been associated with
William Buchheit in the grain bust
ness, having the reputation OF being
one of the best barley experts in the
Northwest. His duties have given
him wide acquaintance in the farm
ing communities. Without any hest
tation we can commend Mr.. Weiss to
the voters of Jefferson county as a
most worthy candidate. Here In his
own home the vote on register will be
practically unanimous for him. Mr..
Weiss is a 'sgold Democrat" and an
earnest worker in the sound money
cause.
The nominee for treasurer, J. A.
Friedel, is resident of the town Of
Sullivan, and has been repeatedly
honored by his neighbors, at present
being treasurer of his town. For five
years he was chairman Of the town
board. His administration of these
trusts has been careful and far-see
ing. Born in the town OF Sullivan
thirty-nine years ago, of German par
entage, he is typical representative
of the race which has made Jefferson
county abound in productive farms.
At present Mr.. Friedel conducts a
general STORE at Rome. His nomina
ton will strengthen the ticket
throughout the county and especially
among the German-American
Lake Mills representative on the
ticket is popular young gentle
man of that village, James l.. Cook.
He also is a product of Jefferson
county. When a young man he en-
tered the employ Of the Bullwinkel
hardware firm at Jefferson, where he
remained until about two years ago,
when he accepted a position as trav-
cling salesman for Griswold & Fraser,
of Lake Mills, dealers in agricultural
implements. Through his years OF
service behind the counter and on the
road his acquaintance has become
extensive, and all who know him
speak in the highest terms of his abil-
ity. His nomination for clerk of the
courts cannot fail to bring many
votes to the ticket.
Frederick Bullwinkel, of Jefferson,
is we'll known throughout the county
and has ever been an earnest worker
in the cause of Republicanism. A
graduate of the Northwestern uni
verslty Of this city, he is we'll quail
fed to fill the position OF county
clerk He is a German-American
25 years of age, and a native of the
city of Jefferson.
The nominee for district attorney,
E. A, Wigdale, is popular and pro-
gressiye young resident Of Fort At
kinson. He is of Scandinavian de-
scent. His education was received
at the state university and he is well
fitted for the office be seeks.
J. l.. HELEN for superintendent of
schools. E. G. Jones for surveyor. and
Phinious Jacqueth for coroner are all
excellent nominations and will add
strength TO the ticket.

dress myself, except with assistance, and
could only hobble about by using cane. I
had no appetite, and was assured by the
doctors, that could not live. The pains. at
times, were so awful, that I could procure
relief only by means of hypodermic injec-
tons of morphine. 1 had my limbs bandaged
in clay, in sulphur, in poultices; but these
gave only temporary relief After trying
everything and suffering the most awful
fortunes, began to take Ayers Sarsaparilla.
Inside of two months, was able to walk

began to strengthen, and in the course of
year, was cured. My weight has increased

THE COLUMBIA HUNTING CLUB.


a sporting Organization OF Rare
Merit.
The Columbia Hunting Club is interesting
itself in the legislation pending this winter
to close the quail season for two years in
Maryland and Virginia. The severe weather
Of February and March last year nearly
exterminated the quail, or ''partridges," in
this vicinity, and sportsmen have been en-
couraging every agency for their protection.
Members of the club say that not a single
quail has been shot by any member this
year. Singularly, in all the hunting expedi-
tions made by the club this season they have
seen no quail in their usual haunts, but in
the District, near Washington, they have
seen several coveys.
The club consists of ten members, the con-
stitutfon limiting the number. No one can
nOEe TO become u member unless he is al
ready well-known sportsman, whose skill,
prudence and companionship are unques-
toned. The officers are: F. Kahlert presi-
dent; Karl Xander, vice president; Theodore
Leckert secretary; August Schmidt, treas
urer; VIM. Holmead and Hugo Kurschner.
trustees; Andrew Loeffler, forest master;
John NJ Rueth, VIM. Berger; Herman Dali
ker, provision meister
The club has a rented club house at the
corner OF 1th and l. streets, where regularly
m monthly business meetings are held. The
club has taken stock in one of the building
associations, to provide a fund to build a
club house. Each member puts s. month
into this fund. The club confines itself to no
particular game, but organizes regular
monthly excursions for duck shooting in
Quantico, turkeys in the Blue Ridge, snlpe
on the Chesapeake or rabbits in Fairfax
one general hunt is had yearly. to which
each member invites friend. The annual
banquets, the last one of which was given
February 90 are rich in the variety and
toothsome quality of game served, and they
are events long to be remembered by those
who enjoy them.
