come 10 be known as young Hercules.
He is growing stronger all the time.
The following is partial list of the
feats performed by Williams. none Of
them giving him any particular trouble.
Holding a 175-pound dunlb-bell above the
head at arms length.
Lifting ]. 700 pounds with harness
Twisting two packs OF playing cards In
two with the greatest ease.
Raising l50-pound man above the head.

He has never been sick. is temperate
and possessed OF great endurance. His
lung capacity is 40 pounds, the extent

He has control over the muscles OF his
chest. which IL an unusual thing. No

WORKMAN's NARROW ESCAPE.
Accidental Dynamite Explosion at
Kaukauna Nearly Fatal.

Kaukauna, Wis, Oct. 22.-[Special.1 /
A fatal accident came near occurring yes
terday among the workmen who are e2-
gagged by the W~aterworks company in
blasting stone from the trenches in the
river bed. A cartridge had just been ex-
ploded, and Joseph Eppinger, who uses a
heavy iron to break the stone into smaller
pieces, struck an unexploded dynamite
cartridge with it. A terrific explosion
followed and Eppinger was lifted from
his feet and thrown violently on his back,
rendering him unconscious for awhile, but
not seriously injuring him. The iron,
which weighed eighty pounds, was thrown
sixty feet. Half a dozen other men were
right in the midst of the explosion, but
came out unframed, which seems almost
miraculous.

Another chapter has been added to the

Salem. George w. Hall, editor of the
West Salem Nonpariel, who is alleged to
have shot G.. f. Thomas, his business
partner, through the neck some weeks
ago, claiming that he thought Thomas
was a burglar, is now charged with as
sault with attempt to murder. Since
Thomas has recovered from the effects of
his wound, Hall has refused Thomas, or
his attorneys, to examine the books of
the George w. Hall Publishing company
and refuses to dissolve and settle up the
business in which Thomas has been the
principal financial hacker. Judge Brind-
ley has granted an injunction restraining
Hall from carrying on the business and
an application has been made for a re-
ceiver. Expert J. c.. Card is making a

Madison, Wis, Oct. 22.-[Special.l-
Gov. Scofeld today received word from
Washington that SO officers and 704 men
of the Third regiment, Wisconsin volun-
teers, had sailed from Ponce, Porto Rico,
on the transport Manitoba. The trans

Wausau citizens, has received a telegram
from Col. Kimball, acting quartermaster
at New York city, stating that the Third
sailed from Ponce on the transport Mani
toba on Wednesday, October 10.
From this it would seem, as intimated
IN yesterdays dispatch from Washing

reached him to hold the Third and let

boys.
1t is understood that the transport will

TO FIGHT BELL PHONES.
New Combination Toll Lines Which
will Start a Rate War.

La Crosse, Wis, Oct. 22.-[SDecial. i
For three years past this city has been
the scene of a bitter fight between the La
Crosse Telephone company, known as the
new" or independent" company, and
the Wisconsin Telephone company, under
which name the Bell interests are repre-
scented in this state. The La Crosse Tele-
phone company has been the nucleus
about which has gathered all the anti-Bell
movements in western Wisconsin and
southern Minnesota. The La Crosse COM
pany put in the first successful independ-
ent local exchange in Wisconsin. Then
other cities tried it, and the movement
spread to Winona and other Minnesota
towns. Some weeks ago a deal was per-
fected in this city whereby the North
western Telephone Exchange with head
quarters in Minneapolis, which is the Bell
company in Minnesota, purchased some
several thousand miles of independent toll
lines, connecting 800 towns and cities in
Minnesota, Iowa and Dakota. This, it
was thought at the time, would cripple
the La Crosse company to such an extent
that it would be forced out of the toll or
long distance business, in this territory.
But it turns out that such has not been
the case. The La Crosse mpan has
Just perfected a traffic agreement with the
Standard Telephone company, with mead
quarters at Britt, Ia, another mdepend-
ent concern, whereby practically all OF It's
former Western connections are regalled
and many new towns have been added TO
the toll line lists. A fat rate of ID cents
for FIVE minute talks to any point on the
new system has also been inaugurated,
and this is expected to start a rate war.

Will Run from Stevens Point,
Southeasterly to the City
of Oshkosh.

Plainfeld, Wis. Oct. 22-ISpecial.1-
The new railroad scheme which has been
pending some time has now reached a
point where it is a sure thing The peo-
pie of the eastern part Of this county
have long wanted a railroad and the Osh-
kosh & Stevens Point Railway company
has presented petitions and a proposition
to several of the towns which AVE been
readily accepted. The proposed line is
from Stevens Point southeasterly to Osh-
kosh. Fifteen prominent taxpayers III
each of the following towns nave signed
the proposition. The town of Poysippi
is to bono itself for $4,000, the town Of
Springwater for $4,000 and Wild Rose
for $4,000. The rate of interest is 6 per
cent. and the bonds are due in twenty
years. The farmers along the proposed
line and the business men at the villages
are extremely anxious for the road 1t
will be a g~ood-paying enterprise as a
heavy freight traffic can be obtained, as
this is a great potato-raising belt. The
country through which the line is to pass
is very fertile with beautiful farms and
fine buildings and farmers are mostly
well-to-do. The country is thickly set
tied and one of the best in Central Wis
consin and everything points to a success
and the chances are in favor of building
a line in a short time.
