Our Wisconsin Dairy school.

A new circnlar from the university of
Wisconsin dairy school, located at Mad
ison, is now being distributed to those
interested in this line of instruction. A
great many pictures of the students and
their work are given IN the circular, to-
gether with an outline of the opportu
mites afforded by this school for dairy
instruction. Most of the $50 students
who attended the school during the
past eight years are creamery or cheese
factory operators, who expect to COM
mence factory work in the spring after
they have taken the three winter months
instruction. In the last c,aes there were
30 students who had positions guaran-
teed them before coming to the school
and six of these had their expenses paid
by some one for whom they expected to
work at the close of this term. The
school can accommodate 100 students,
and applications are already being re-
ceived for the next term, which begins
November 29th, and continues twelve
weeks. The daily work of the student
includes two lectures of one hour each,
and four to six hours work in the
creanerv.cheese factory or pasteurizing
room. No entrance examination is re-
quired, but at least four months prac-
ticsl experience in creamery or cheese
factory must be had before joining us.
In the last class there were 45 who had
worked from four months to one yea,
and Is for more than one year IN a
creamery; 80 had made cheese for four
months to one year, while 25 had
worked in cheese factory more nan
one year. As the creamery and pasteur-
izing departments of the work are in
operation during the entire year, an op-
portunity is then afforded for those with
no previous experience to take our
factory pupil" course and get the
necessary experience for entering the
winter term. Laat year the board of
regents of the university reduced the
fees for resident pupils to Sc, while non-
residents must pay $50 fees. Fifty-two
dollars is an estimate OF a students OK
penses during the term.

Ordination Services at Retreat

On September 7th, the Sterling Con
gregational church, of Retreat, ordained
their pastor, Mr.. J. Wesley Holway,
A. M j, B D, to the Christian ministry
The ordaining council consisted of
Rev. Henry Faviile, d. D., of La Crosse;
Rev Jonathan G.. Smith, B. D., of To-
NAH; Rev. l.. B. Nobis, of Cashton;
Samuel Ross, Esq, of De Soto; Grew.
VIM. Haughton, of Viroqua; Rev. Jno.
Holway, NJ. A., of st. Louis, Mo Rev.
Rawson, of Manning, and Mr.. l.. r.
Gaines, of the Viroqua church. Rev.
VIM. Haughton being elected as per-
manent moderator, the council pro-
ceeded to examine the candidate in
Christian experience and doctrine. Mr..
Holway's replies showed that he was a
member of the modern movement in
theology, called "Back to Christ" He
said, "to Christ, and not to Augustine,
Jerome, L-ther, Calvin, Arminiue, or
Alex. Cambell should we look for the
perfect revelation of the character of
the Father" After examining the can
didate at some length the council adj
iourned to the parlor of the parsonage
and unanimously voted to ordain the
pastor of the church to the Christian
ministry. During the succeeding re-
cess, ladies of the church served in the
church very fine and dainty supper.
In the evening the sermon was given
by Rsv. j. G. Smith, of Tomah. 1t
showed that the Temah church is blessed
with en- ideal preacher, of deep learning,
eloquence, and ripe CHRISTIAN expert
ence. Rev. Henry Faville, d. D., then
gave the charge to the pastor, urging
him to set one day OF the seven aside
for rest from mental effort; to be bust
ness like in his habits; to sweat his
BRAN with hard study; to take vaca-
ton of three or four weeks each year.
and to be true to his own convictions.
The pastor then kneeling, the other as
tors present, placed their hands uoon
his head, Rev. John Holway, the pas
tors faiths, Offering tie ordsining
PRAYER The ceremony of laying on of
hands in prayer was vely affecting and
impressive. Rev. VIM. Haughton, the
Oldest pastor of the La Crosse conven-
tion. and a member of the Retreat
church, gave the candidate the right
hand of fellowship, welcoming him to
the ministry and to the church.
NJ. Rawson, who serves four or five
stations in the Kickapoo valley, gave
the charge to the church, urging the
members to cooperate with the pastor
in earnest prayer, and in labor for the
lost men and women about. "a church."
the said, ''cau do nothing, however able
the pastor, unless the members are
fully united with him in Christian work"
He also humorously urged the church
members to keep up the pastors hay
stack and straw pile" Ths services
were closed with the benediction by the
newly ordained pastor.
Rev. Henry Faville remarked st the
close ct the day: 'sThis is the best ordi-
+ alton service we have had" and all OF
the delegates present expressed them
selves as highly pleased. Harmony,
Christian brotherhood, and high order
OF intellectual ability were manifested
in the days service; and also in the
excellent entertainment provided for
them by the ladies Of the church.

RETURN OF TROoPS-TROUBLE BREW
ING AT MANILA

ING AT MANILA.
The First Wisconsin regiment, sta
tened at Jacksonville, arrived in Mil
waukee, recently, after vexatious delays
soon after starting; also the Second
regiment, from Porto Rico. The boys
were all in good spirits, and it is only to
be regretted that some were unable to
come with them, but have to remain in
southern hospitals until they are able
to travel. They were cordially well
coined by the citizens OF Milwaukee.
where great demonstration was partic-
ipated in by many citizens Of the state.
Twenty mine or more Of the northern
Wisconsin boys, belonging to the Third
regiment in Porto Rico, and who were
exsminend convslescents by the medi-
cal board as subjects for furlough, are
almost home. They are said to be in
q week condition, but are gaining rap
idly.
Reports Of affairs at Manila are not
at all assuring and somewhat discour-
aging. It is said that Admiral Dewey
has asked for an additional cruiser and
battleship. Aguinsldo. the insurgent
leader, has the whole of the island of
Luzon, except the cities of Manila and
Cavite, and suburbs, under his control,
and has announced his intention of con-
vening an assembly OF the PHILIPPINES on
the 18th inst in order to decide upon
the policy to be followed by the insur-
gents. He says there are 1000 armed
men under him, and that they could be
increased to 100000. He declares the
whole population of the Philippine is
lands are willing to fight for their indie
pendence, and he is restless while watt
ing to Learn what will be the policy of
the Americans.
