Death Came Suddenly to S. e. Hirbour,
the Well Known Pioneer
5. E. Hirbour, the we'll known pioneer
who had the misfortune to fall down a,
flight of stairs at the Will house Satur-
day night, died very suddenly at ST.
James hospital yesterday morning.
from embolism, that peculiar affection
sometimes produced by an injury such
as he sustained, and which is almost
always fatal. While it is said by medi-
cal men not to be an infrequent result
of broken bone, it is the second case
of the kind as far as known to be re-
ported here. 1t is in most cases as in
this, clot of blood forming, generally
resulting from fracture, which gets
into the veins, arrests circulation and
produces death.
The old gentleman's death came with
out moments warning. At S O'Clock
yesterday morning one of the sisters
called on him to battle his face and
hands and order his breakfast She
found the patient seemingly much i'm
proved. He was in good spirits and
conVersed cheerfully while the bathing
was in progress When he had finished
the sister suggested that she had better
give him little stimulant. He replied
that he thought it would do him good
and she started to get him some liquor
AS she turned to go the old man drop
ped back on the pillow and expired
without word or a struggle. Drs
Molleur and Moore, who We're attending
the patient. were summoned and on eX-
aiming the remains and being told the
circumstances pronounced the cause of
death as emboliSm. III 'N.
The deceased was one of the well
known pioneers of the early days, hav-
ing been a resident of Montana since
1865. During his long residence he had
acquired comfortab BILE fortune He at
one time owned the Rarus mine and
among his real estate possessions a t the
time of his death was the valuable
property at the northeast corner of
Broadway and Main streets. Deceased
was 60 years of age and leaves wife
and three children. The members of
the family are now at ST. Johns, Que

reader The problems of heredity and
of the intermarriage of relatives and con-
sumptives are important problems and
have an interest of their own. They are
not just the themes we look for in a novel,
and we believe that those who care for the
investigation of such topics will find more
of interest in more serious form of COM
position.
Scenes From the Show" by George r.
Sims, is book of short stories, many of
which illustrate the authors exceptional
faculty of dramatic expression and happy
selection of incident.
In THE Garden of Swords the admir-
ers of Max Pemberton will not look for a
careful adherence to the facts of history.
But they will expect to find the story of
the Franco-German war, illustrated by
the vivid Imagination of the author and
rendered interesting by his fascination of
style, and in this expectation they will
not be disappointed.
American interest in the eminent French
critic and litterateur, M. Edouard Rod,
has of late been excited by his lectures in
our Eastern universities. OF his Pastor
Naudie's Young Wife" it may be said
that it is not only the best of his works,
but one of the most unexceptional exam
pies of recent French fiction, to our
American taste.

Farms In Northern Wisconsin

are as good, IF rot better than farms in
any state of the Union. There is no
reason why the intending settler should
90 to distant states in order to secure a
good location. Northern Wisconsin is
rapidly developing, but there are still
thousands of acres of fine hardwood
farming lands open to the settler, which
can be obtained at reasonable figures
and upon easy terms. The soil is of the
best, good roads are being put in, and
school houses are rapidly building
The immense undeveloped resources
in. the shape of rich deposits of iron ore,
clay, kaolIn and mari, as well as large
tracts of hardwood timber, offer extra
ordinary inducements to the manufact-
urer. The Wisconsin Central lines run
through the timber and minearl belt

Weekly CrOp Bulletin,

The week as a whole has been very
favorable for the growth Of Vegetation
on account of the abundant rainfall
and the seaSOnable temperatures.
The average temperature for the week
was about normal, and nearly 50
warmer than the week preceding.
Light frOStS occurred early in the
week in exposed localities in the
central and western counties, and
cranberry vines, where the marshes
were not flooded, showed the effect of
the frost, but there was no serious
damage. The rainfall for the week
was heavy in the southern and western
portions of the state, being excessive
in the lower Chippewa river valley.
At Eau Claire, the total rainfall from
8 p. m. Friday to 10 a. M. Saturday
amounted to 4.62 inches, while several
points in Pierce and Pepin counties
report equally heavy rains. There
was some damage caused by the wash
ing of the land and the destruction of
bridges. Farm work has been delayed
by the rains but crops as a rule have
made excellent progress. Corn is
nearly all planted and the early
paintings are up. The cold weather
during the past two weeks caused a
slow and rather poor termination and
considerable Teplanting will be neces-
sary. Winter rye is heading we'll. In
the western counties winter wheat is
doing well and will be an average crop
but in the southeastern counties it is
a total failure. Barley and oats show
the effect Of the cold weather during
the past few weeks but are now i'm
proving under the influence of the
more favorable conditions. Pastures
are good and the prospects for fruit
fair

q suggestion of political compromise,
TO "let Gen. Grout 60 to the senate
for a term and elect Dillingham; 10
the house. to which the White River
Junction Landmark replies:
This arrangement is just too res
tive to ever be carried out on the
East side where political scalp'hunt-
ing is favorite pastime every two
Years. The Brattleboro and St.

1t is laughable to see every YER

date for congressional honors edtglng
on the Hon. w. w. to make break
for the senatorship and let his pres
emit seat go by default, or rather
toss it onto the sidewalk and let the
boys scrabble for it. Hon. W. W.
Grout is a fairly good business man
He owns a controlling interest IN the
