a MEXICAN CEMETERY.
Whore Graves Arc Rented at tho Rate OF
Ono Dollar Per Month.

Ono Dollar Per Month.
A correspondent describes the queer
cemetery of the Mexican vil!ag. OF
Guanaiuato. There is hardly room in
Guanajuato for the living, SO it be-
hooyes her people to exercise rigid econ
olny in the disposition of her dead.
The burial place is on the top Of Il
steep hill, which overlooks the city,
and consists of an area inclosed by what
appears from the outside to he IL high
wall, but which discovers itself from
within to be receptacle for bodies,
which are placed in tiers. much as the
confines of the native valleys compel
them to live. Each compartment in
the wall is large enough to admit one
coffin, and is rented for one dollar
per month. The poor people IRE bur-
led in the ground without the formality
of a coffin, though one is usually rent
ed, in which the body is conveyed to the
grave. As there are not graves enough
to go around, whenever a new one is
needed previous tenant must be dis
turbed, and this likewise happens when
q tenants rent is not promptly paid in
advance. The body is then removed
from it's place in the 1nausolcum, or
exhumed. as the case may be, and the
bones are thrown into the basement
below.

New Fountains In Lancaster

A subscription paper was passed
among the property owners of the city
of Lancaster the first Of the week and
money enough (about 5000 has been
subscribed to purchase two public
drinking fountains. One. for horses
and dogs, will be erected in the square
at the old town pump; the other. for
people, will probably be erected at the
Baxter u Draper corner. John S.
Wright, leader in this much needed
Improvement, informs us that the city
council has agreed to bear the expense
of putting in the fountains which will
leave that much more money to be ex-
rended on the fountains. Mr.. Wright
also desires us to give notice that
there will be meeting of the subscri-
bers to the fund at the city clerk S
office Friday evening, july IL, at s
o'clock, for the purpose of selecting
fountains and for the purpose of decid-
ing their permanent location. Every
subscriber should be present.

An AssauIt case from Mt. Hone.

A few years ago Rufus nj. Day and
NJ. j. Whiteside were partners in a
general store at Mt. Hope. Mr..
Whiteside, who is Mr.. Days brother
in-law, retired from the business. At
the time of the dissolution. differences
arose between the gentlemen which
resulted about year ago in Mr..
Whiteside bringing suit in circuit
court against his former partner to
force an accounting. The case was
thrown out of court on account of the
insufficiency of the complaint. Since
then the pot of trouble has kept con-
stantly boiling. A few days ago Mr..
Whiteside went to Days store and
standing outside the door in the road
gave voice to an explosion of wrath
against Day who was inside. He
called Day id thief, a liar and
other hard names, and derisively
called him Mr.. Weber. Mr.. Day had
him arrested for assault. The case
was tried in Lancaster Monday before
Justice Will McGonigal and jury.
After hearing the evidence. the jury
returned verdict of guilty and the
justice fined Whiteside $25 and the
costs amount to another $25. Mr..
Whiteside has given notice that he
will carry the case to circuit court;
but it is believed that he will not do
so, as IN his testimony he frankly adj
mitted that he had committed an as
sault by calling Day names. Geo.
Clementson, Jr., was the prosecuting
attorney and Dan Needham was at
torney for Whiteside.

Kate Merwin In JAN.

Monday afternoon Marshal Sam Bar
tholemew of Boseobel arrived here in
charge of Miss Kate Merwin who in
the forenoon of that day had been
brought before Justice Jacob Nc
Laughlin and sentenced to six months
Imprisonment. in the county jail for the
crime of fornication. The prisoner is
IS years old. She informed the re-
porter that "Sam Bartholomew was
sneaking around last Thursday night
and caught me and Idon't think he
has any business to do that way, do
you9" Another thing she kicked
about was that she claimed the mar
shall bad his arm around her while
riding all the way frop Boscobel down
here. Anybody who is at all acquaint-
ed with Sam knows the statement is
untrue; or if he did put his arm around
her it was to keep her from falling out
of the buggy.
The girl gave us the name of the
man that was with her last Thursday
night. He was not arrested and pun
ished. 1t is not fashionable to arrest
men for such offences in Boscobel;
only the girls are punished by being
sent here to Jail to rest upand receive
medical treatment at the expense Of
the county. An officer of the law or a
justice who would presume TO put "a
horse on the boys" by sending any
OF them to jail would promptly take
a ride out of town on a rail for his inn
pudence at breaking time-honored
custom. The girl also gave us long
list of men, married and unmarried.

be she lies; but the chances are that
she doesn't. Children and idiots tell
The truth, and Kate is very much the
latter. having little more than half
sense.
1t is right that she is punished. To
remedy the social evil the male-factors
should also be fined or imprisoned.
just how to accomplish this is prob
lem that has ever perplexed the hand

make their home in the windy city of

The Dairy school Graduate.
(By Prot. e. H. Farrington.)

Q3y Prot. e. II. Farrington)
Since the opening of the Wisconsin
Dairy School in 1891 there has been
total attendance of 574 students, 4SI
of these were residents of Wisconsin,
and SO came to us from other states
and countries.
After student has taken full
course in the Dairy School he is a can
didate for dairy certificate from the
University of Wisconsin. In order to
obtain this certificate he must have
worked in creamery or cheese factory
for two seasons of not less than seven
months each. One of these seasons
must follow the period spent with us
and during this time the candidate
must have practical charge of the fac
tory in which he is working. He will
report the work of his factory on prop
er blanks furnished by the University.
The students factory is inspected
by representative of the Dairy School
and no certificate will be issued if an
unfavorable report is made by the in
spector. If all the conditions are sat
isfactorily complied with, the candi-
date will receive dairy certificate.
The Dairy School creamery is in op-
Grafton during the entire year, thus
giving an opportunity for experiments
at all times in butter and cheese max
ing also in milk and cream pasteur
izing. 1t also offords students
chance to take our Factory Pupil"
course which gives them the necessary
experience to enter the regular Dairy
School course ii they have no other
place to get this experience.
The annual circular describes more
fully the outfit and details Of the
school and it will be sent to any one
who wishes to know more about the
different courses.
Eighty-six Dairy certificates have
been issued to date and over 40 for
mer pupils are now working for
Dairy certificates.

Ed King, residing southwest of
town on Pigeon creek, took large
dose of poison by mistake on Monday.
He was taking medicine for slight
stomach trouble and on the shelf be-
side the bottle he was using stood a
bottle of tineture of aconite. After
he had eaten, his wife by installing
the bottle gave him teaspoonful out
of the aconite bottle. After swallowing
the dose he said THAT is not the
medicine | have been taking" and on
examination her mistake was discov-
cred. Fifteen drops Of the poison if
taken internally win produce death.
Mr.. King jumped onto a horse and
came to town as fast as he co1ld. He
found DR.. Strong at home and was
soon relieved by vomiting. His wife
followed him in buggy and her dis
tress over the affair can well be inn
agined. The lucky part of it was that
Mr.. King took the poison on full
stomach. Otherwise he would have
died on the road to town.

roxy Perhaps, But Not Honorable.

Foxy Perhaps, But Not Honorable
Methods have been employed in the
politics of Grant county in the last
ten days that are beneath the dignity
of gentlemen. The last issue of the
Teller contains an article that is both
falS and contemplate. If it had
emenated from the Teller editor alone
it might he passed UNDECIDED but when
it is known that men in close sympa-
thy with leaders who oppose McGreg-
or approved it, and It's fair to presume
inspired if not wrote it, the article
merits attention. 1t is only fair to
say that we do not believe La Toilette
himself knew of or would eountenance
such methods. A portion of the arti-
Gle is as follows:
How happens it that Mr.. MEG regor is
named as candidate for governors Can it
be that he ever thought of 1t HIMSELF We
don't believe 1t. II was a case where the
man did not seek candidacy; the candidacy
sought the man. The move has its incep-
ton milwaukee, 1t springs from two bosses
Payne and Pfister. They say that ex-Sena-
tor Sawyer is in it also, but we leave him
out. Payne and Pfister had a Grant county
politician in their closet not long ago and
they told him what they wanted. They
wanted Scofield. the big northern lumber
man to be their governor II was no use to
offer Scoheld to Grant county: they might
get some man to take the Grant county dele
cat md hax = af
will vote for Scoheld when their votes are
wanted This is the lesson Payne and Pfster
gave the Grant county man in the closet
He came home. Then he took two Lancas
ter men in his closet--one of them dirty
fellow. The plan was part tally laid open
The question was, who would be the man
to put upg 1t was reasoned that ii would
have to be some good man. II would not do
to take any of our set for that would be a
give-away; it would let the cat out of the
bag, and as we have use of a catspaw we
don't want the cat exposed And it would
not do to take some man who belongs to our
machine. Suddenlysthe name Of Prof. Nc
Gregor was mentioned. BY the man who
proposed him there is no more intention of
securing his nomination for Governor than
there is for nominating him for Pope of
Rome. Their sole object is through him TO
get control of the delegates from this county
tothe State convention.
The article is untrue in every par
ticular and contains in itself proof Of
its own falsitv.
Who the Grant county politician was
said to have seen Payne and Pfister in
Milwaukee is well known. The date
OF his visit to Milwaukee when it is
alleged this great scheme was Matched
was June 20. He did not return to
Lancaster so as to be able to take
1.-TWO Lancaster men" into his closet
for several days after that.
| Place with that set of fact this one,
that the Platteville Witness announce
ed McGregor June 10 and that Mr..
McGregor and number Of intimate
friends in Platteville and Lancaster
had the matter under advisement for
two weeks before that, and the utter
lfalseness and stupidity of the Teller's
lie is apparent. Perhaps we ought
not to call it the '.Teller's lie. The
Teller is usually better liar.
