The Tribune MiSintormed.

The Tribune of this week says
Misfortune has again oyertaken the
Mineral Point Woolen Mills company.
An annual balancing of accounts
showed that the business of the past
year had resulted in loss, that con
tinuance was likely to increase the
deficit, hence it was decided to cease
operation, divide the assets and
pocket the loss among the stock.
holders. That's why hardware men,
grocers, butchers, and bakers, have
women's woolen skirts, blankets, fan.
nels, etc, as a side issue TO their
regular business,
1t was the affairs of the old Mineral
Point Woolen company, which operat-
ted the mills in 1894, that were wound
up; and not the affairs of the present
Mineral Point Wooden Manufacturing
company. The Democrat is glad to
state, upon authority of the stock
holders Of the new company, that a
large number of orders have been
received from Chicago and elsewhere,
and that the mills will resume opera,
tion early In February. The company
is showing the finest line Of samples
ever turned out Of these mills; and 1t
is hoped and believed that enough ord
ers will be secured to keep the mills in
constant operation during the coming
wear.

4 Relic of washington.

There is movement on the part OF
quite large number of the residents
Of Princeton, N. j., to rescue from
oblivion. the ancient structure in
which George Washington resided
during the summer and foil of 1888,
when Congress was in session at
Princeton. 1t was in the old Berrien
mansion at Rocky Hill that Washing.
ton lived and from which lie wrote
his farewell address to the army. An
Organization hos been formed by the
leading people of Princeton and other
towns in the State known as the
Washington Headquarters Assccia-
tion. At recent meeting Board Of
Trustees was elected from the promi-
nent Revolutionary families of the
State. Measures wers taken looking
to the purchase of the old mansion
and two acres of land adjoining, and
it is proposed to restore the building
and make of it museum of Washing
ton relics. At present the building is
in dilapidated condition and is sub
iect to further destruction by the
blasting that is continually going on
in the quarries of the Rock Hill Stone
Quarry Company, located adjacent.
1t was resolved to offer the company
$500 for the building and two acres
of ground, and to refuse to accept the
building on any other conditions than
that it remain on it's present historic
site.-Atlanta Constitution.

mountains, and that among them are
four companies of women soldiers,
who are as effective in the field as any
OF his troops. It would seem entirely
out of place for women to be fighting
