From Pole to Pole.

1t has been referred to as remarkable
that the United States Government, in
fitting out its expedition for the relief
of the whalers imprisoned in the Arctic
Seas, should have selected and included
Royal Baking Powder among its sup
plies, and no other.
This is not at all to lie wondered at
The superior quality of the Royal made
its use upon this occasion Indispensable
The Royal is the only baking powder Sc
carefully and perfectly made that it will
keep fresh in all climates, under vari-
able degrees of temperature and mois-
ture, during long sea voyages, etc. II
is the only baking powder that will dc
its work uniformly and perfectly at the
Poles and under the Equator as well as
in the United States.
The Royal is regularly and continuous
ly selected for use at our army posts, in
the navies of this country and Great
Britain and upon the fleets of merchant
vessels that cover the oceans, irrespec-
tive of the flag they fly.
All this means that the Royal is he
best baking powder for home use also.
1t means that it has qualities peculiar 10
itself which make its usefulness beyond
that possible for any other baking pow-
der to attain.

ARMENIA.

Two of our young ladies-the names
of whom we will not publish-started
out Tuesday evening last with given
point in view, for cutter ride; all
went on smoothly for a distance of
about half mile when the rig was
stopped to take in the third lady; and
no sooner were the three seated when
the cutter gave away and the contents
left by the road side. But lucky for
the girls the horse was not badly fright
ened and Mr.. Brooks appeared on the
spot just in time to help them out of
their trouble by lending them buggy
with which they resumed their journey.

Compliments For Kellogg

Neenah Daily Times: A Grand Rap
ids paper publishes an interesting
article on the New Year and it's posi-
bilities, especially directed to young
men, written by c. F. kellogg, formerly
of this city.
The above article mentioned by the
Neenah newspaper, appeared in the
REPORTER on Jan. 6 and was signed by
one c. E. Kellogg. Undoubtedly just
such nice sentiments and interesting
words as that article contained might
be written by our friend and neighbor,
c. F. Kellogg the Centralia lumbermar,
if he cared to put himself to the task
Certain it is that his venerable head
now fast becoming destitute Of natures
covering, would inspire the youth of
our land with full reverence and conf
dence in any advice he might give
them. But to relieve him from the
crushing weight of compliments that
have fallen upon him since appearance
of that article. we must say it wasn't
our G.. f. kellogg this time.

ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING.
Rudolph Farmer Married Monday
Killed Saturday.

John Flaig, d German farmer aged
% years, living one mile east and one
mile south of Rudolph station in the
town of Rudolph, met sudden death
by the accidental discharge of his own
gun, while hunting rabbits Saturday
last.
Four years ago Mr.. FLAG came over
here from the old country and settled
near his brother. With much hard
work and great economy he succeeded
in accommodating forty acre tract of
land. a nice team, some implements
and perhaps small amount of money.
Monday of last week, Jan. 10, John
was married to light Polish girl
16 years of age, residing in that neigh
borhood, and happily in their own
simple home the young pair started
out bravely on the life which together
they would travel for less than six
brief days.
Saturday afternoon, at O'Clock, Mr..
FLAG went rabbit hunting with his
dog to secure, if possible, the meat
for which his wife had just expressed
desire. At p. N. the dog came
home alone. Thinking that her hus-
band had gone across country to his
Vi OUllCl La III, ce iS plCSA bIo ol
former rabbit jaunts before marriage,
Mrs. FLAG patiently waited the hunt
er's return until 3 p. m. Sunday. Then
she reported her anxiety to the neigh
bors and a search was instituted.
Monday morning Flaig's tracks were
found which led off from a main road
through the snow about ten rods to
where his dead body lay frozen stiff in
the woods.
An inquest was conducted by JUS
tice Gets of Centralia, assisted by
Sheriff Geo. II. Smith and DR.. A. L.
Ridgman. From examination of the
premises where deceased was killed
and the position in which destroyed
and destroyer were found, 1t Is rea-
sonabIe to believe that: Flaig at
tempted to step over two fallen logs
about two feet above ground, resting
the butt of his gun on the higher log
as walking stick. The gun slipped,
the man fell forward over muZzle of
gun, and at same time the hammer
struck the log. A full charge of fine
shot was emptied directly into Flaig's
stomach at such close range that the
flesh was burned black and his under
clothing was slightly Singed.
After the judicial inquiry was fin
ished and the jury had returned its
verdict of met death by the acct
dental discharge of breech loading
shotgun in his own hands," the body
was given over to relatives. The I'M
fortunate hunter was laid away to
final rest on Wednesday.

e. w. Fields Mi sing.

E. w. Fields, of Port Edwards, who
has been in this country for many years
and we'll know at Biron and Port Ed
wards as cook, came to the city last
Thursday, made few purchases and
informed his helpers that he was going
to Tomahawk for couple of days.
Nothing more was thought of it until
Wednesday when he failed to return.
Information from Tomahawk is to the
effect that he has not been there anc
no trace as to his whereabouts is known.
Parties are out to-day in search for
some information. He has either lost
his mind and wandered off or else be
has met with foul play somewhere
The writer shook hands with him and
passed the time Of day on Thursday
last about noon and he appeared the
same as usual to us at that time. We
hope his whereabouts will soon be
known.

ETIQUETTE OF FUNERALS.
New Workers Who Are Careful to At
tend Obsequies of Old Friends.

New Workers Who Are Careful to At
tend Obsequics of Old Friends.
Some men are as conscientious and
as scrupulously exact in paying their
respects to the dead" as they are in any
other matter of etiquette. Among their
number are men conspicuous in public
life. Their frequent presence at flu
nerals is indicative of a strong sense of
duty as well as of loyal friendship for
those to whose death they pay the
tribute. For busy man of affairs to
take an hour or two out of the middle
of the day to attend 4 church funeral
is often more of a sacrifice than casual
observer might think. Yet there are
score or more of well-lnown and in
tiuential New Workers who invariably
make it a point to attend the funeral
of an old friend, no matter how incon-
venient it may be.
John ID. Crimmins is most punctilious
in this respect, as also is Gen. Stewart
L. Woodford, now United States min
lister to Spain. They believe that 10y
atty to friend entails the duty of be-
ing present at that friends funeral. j.
Edward Simmons, president of the
Fourth national bank; John III. Starin
and d. Q. Mills are very busy men who
usually find time to attend the funerals
of their old friends or business asso-
GATES
Within the past few months several
old and respected residents of this city
have died and been inferred after serv-
ices in some church. In almost every
instance the same well-known faces of
surviving friends were observed among
the general mourners Elihu Root,
John Z. Parsons, Stephen P. Nash, ex-
Surrogate Delano, C. Calvin and Ed
ward Lauterbach rarely omit attend
ing the obsequies of departed friends
EX-Police Inspector Alexander S. Will
liams and Gen. Howard Carroll are two
men who apparently never neglect
them.
One cold, clustering day last winter,
when the streets were banked high
with snow and the winds were full of
icy needles, there was simple funeral
ceremony in a certain private house
The dead man had at one time been very
active and influential in New York, but
adverse fortune had overtaken him be-
fore his last illness. In his prime many
hundreds had sought his friendship.
Around his coffin scarcely two score of
loyal friends had gathered Chief
among these few mourners, however,
were eN-Inspector Williams and Gen.
Carroll.
Ex-Mayor Hugh j. Grant is another
strict observer of the etiquette pertain
ing to funerals. Only the most exact
ing obligations will prevent his attend
ing the funeral of an old friend. And
it is the same way with Comptroller
Fitch, Postmaster Van Colt and ex-
Postmaster Dayton. Two familiar fig
ures at the public funerals of old New
Workers are those of ex-Postmaster
Thaddeus Wakeman and ex-Collector
Thomas Murphy.-N. Y. Times.
