The Northwestern shoe store at
312 Main street is no more. 1t ran
about month, but failed to do much
business. The alleged proprietors,
M. and L. Lederer, disappeared some
time ago, leaving a lady in charge.
Upon investigation it was found that
the supposed stock was a myth, as the
shelves were filled with empty shoe
boxes. A Milwaukee wholesale house
with a claim of $50 could find only
about half that amount OF goods to
satisfy its interest.
The other day in Watertown we
noticed the elegant drinking fountain
erected by R. E. Lewis in memory of
his son. 1t is an elaborate affair.
The point that attracted our attention
most was its location; directly in the

up can reach it without driv-
ing out to one side. The Journal
thus locating the west side
fountain last summer and we are more
than ever convinced that it should be
so placed Berlin Journal.
Last Thursday DIR. Sleicher, with
the assistance of Drs. Field and Mas

the knee. The member was taken off
about five inches from the thigh.
Mrs Kusel withstood the ordeal ex-
tremely well and is getting along very
nicely. Her many friends expect to
see her entirely recover from the eff
fects in due course of time.

have struck the w. d. Sproesser COM
