Property Owners in Cuba Want the
Flag to Stay There

Washington, July 12.-Brlg. Gen. Ros-
ser, who has just reached Washington
from Cuba, called at the White House to-
day. Gen. Rosser had been mustered out
and is on his way home to Virginia. When
asked about Cuban affairs he said:
MANY things are moving along smooth
ly, but there Is almost universal complaint
about the enforcement Of tariff rules and
laws at Havana. The trouble Of course,
is that military men have not been train
ed in these matters. The different officials
fix different duties on goods"
When asked about the sentiment for an
neXation Gen. Rosser said:
Every man on the island with q dol
lars worth of property never wants 10

A Mineral Point Genius.

| Joseph Richardson wheeled in
from Chicago Tuesday evening, that
is, got as far as Darlington where he
took the train for this city, owing to
a mishap to his wheel. OF the many
sons of whom Mineral Point might
well feel proud, Joe is among the
foremost in point of natural genius,
| industry and rectitude of character.
Today he is recognized in the great
metropolis as leading machiuest
and inventor. 1t is well remembered
by many of our citizens that before
leaving here, and when only Ia years
of age, Joe made at his home, with
improvised tools and scrap metal
material, perfect one-man power
steam engine. Ever since he has
constantly employed his spare time
in making something which, when
completed, proved to be of rare merit,
and which is the more remarkable
from the fact that rather than bor-
row tools necessary to accomplish
his undertaking he made them. The
bicycle he rode to get here he made
also constructed "a harp which is
pronounced a masterpiece in fine
ness of tone and every other respect
He plays choice selections on this
instrument himself, although his
musical talent has not been culti-
waited in the least. Joe's greatest
achievement thus far, however, is
the building of gun suitable for
battleship use. 1t is of small dimen-
sions, but the superior points of merit
are there. 1t will shoot accurately one
mile and half by actual test, aud
this was what he aimed to have it do.
From what we can learn no other
gun for like purposes, and of equally
small dimensions can seud ball
that distance with the same accuracy
and force. This gun, like all other
products of his skill, was constructed
at his home when most people sleep.
When through with this undertake
ing he had, of his own contrivance,
about all that was necessary in
the way of tools, to turn out any
size gun or cannon.
Genius without financial force
back of it usually experiences diff
Guilty IN gaining proper recognition,
and Joe's case is no exception. That
such conditions should not be all
reasonable persons will concede, but
the problem has ever been and we
fear will contiue to be for years to
come, how to relegate financial force
to the rear of real genius and intel
lect where it belongs. If our young
friend can but get parties who have
influence, commonly termed pulp
in politics, government battleships
may yet be enhanced in their pow
ers of destruction, and his skill
duly rewarded.

NOW ON TAP
The Mammoth Exhibition of the South
Western Wisconsin Fair.
BRIGHT PROSPECTS
For the Biggest Crowd and Largest
Number Of Entries in the History
Of any Fair in this Section Of
the State.

To gain for the printers an OPP
portunity to enjoy the wonders of
the fair this issue of the Tribune is
printed Wednesday morning, a few
hours earlier than customary. How
ever, it is none too early to form an
idea of the grandeur of this years
exhibition.
The prospects are exceedingly
bright. People never seemed more
anxious to make exhibits and as II
consequence the number in every
department is going to be very large,
and the grand total will more than
likely exceed that of any previous
year.
The field of race horses to compete
for the liberal purses is large and
made up of more fast goers than ever
before, which insures hot and inter-
esting contests.
The special attractions far excel
anything in the history of South
western Wisconsin. The diving
horses, the diving bicyclist, the div
ing elks, the guideless PAGERS, the
guideless trotter, and Dr.. Carver, the
famous rifle shot, will perform each
day. Besides, those who enjoy the
national game will realize much
pleasure in Witnessing the contest
on the diamond between Linden and
Mifflin on Wednesday afternoon,
and that between Highland and
Richland Center Friday afternoon.
Miss this fair and you'll have cause
for regret.
