JOHN RUSKIN DEAD.

Was Great Critic and ENSRyiSt But n Queer
Character.
A London dispatch says: John Rus
kin, English critic and esssyist, died
Saturday afternoon of influenza, aged
81 years.
One of the most remarkable facts i'll
his career was his divorce of his wife.
He engaged the great painter, Sir john
Millais, to paint a picture of his wife.
MiIIais snd Mrs. Ruskin fell in love
with each other, but they remained
silent. Ruskin soon realized that his
wife and Millsis we're bound by a true
love, but made no objection to it, ar
ranging himself divorce for his wife
so that she could marry the painter.

MILWAUKEE, CAPITAL IN A BIG
PAPER MILL.

G.. B. Pride, of Appelton, leading
paper mill architect, will be in Mil
waukee this morning, Thursday, Nov.
%, to consult with local capitalists re-
gardiDg the erecting of paper mill to
cost about s5OO,OO0. Last night'he said
it was certainty that the plant would
be built, but the location was not de-
cided upon Milwaukee men, chiefly,
with small representation of Chicago
capital, viii erect the mill, for which
Mr.. Pride has already drawn the plans.
One of the questions to be settled at
today's conference will be the location
of the plant. Appleton stands the best
chance of securing it, Mr.. Pride said,
though three other Wisconsin cities are
after it. Whitewater has offered to
build the necessary buildings, but is
practically out of the question, being SO
far removed from the district where
pulp wood can be secured, and having
no water power equal to that at the
Fox or Wisconsin river cities. Next to
Appleton, Wausau is thought to have
the best chance of getting the paper
mill. There is good water power five
miles below that city which has been
surveyed, and which might be utilized.
If the proposed mill is run on print
paper it would have capacity of 100
tons of paper day or over, and would
be equal in size to any paper mill in the
West. Mr.. Pride will go on to Chicago
today to make further arrangements
for the plant.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

A DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.

1t was terrible shock to the citizens
of Colby, yesterday forenoon, when it
was reported that Frank Jarvis, Sr.,
had been struck and instantly killed by
a southbound freight. Frank had been
up town doing some trading, and start
Ell for home with several packages on
his arm. He went down Division street
to South street where he turned to cross
to the west side, and it was at this
crossing the terrible accident occurred.
He crossed the track in front of a south
bound freight running at a high rate of
speed, and, as told by eye witnesses,
when he fell backwards just in time for
the engine to strike and hurl him to one
side. His head was crushed and death
was instantaneous.
Mr.. Jarvis was one of the oldest old
settlers in this vicinity, was scrupulous-
ly honest and highly respected by all.
His death is a sad blow to the family
he had always idolized He was a vet
eran, having served four years and one
month in the I'd Wis. Cavalry. Colby

BLOOD POISONING.

julius Cramer, the efficient manager
of Thielman's meat market, who was
confined to his bed from the effects OF
blood poisoning, is now able to be out
and around at intervals and says that
he is gettirg along nicely. A slight in
jury to his left hand, which at first re-
ceived no consideration from him,
afterwards developed into blood poison
ing. He still carries that member in a
sling and though he is getting along SC
nicely and is able to be out, it is likely
to be some time before he is entirely
free from the effects of this disease

A SURPRISING CURE.
By DR.. Turbin.

1t is perfectly astonishing to note the
results of certain modern methods o
medical treatment
Sometime since there applied to DR.
Louis NJ. Turbin, the noted Specialis
who is well known in this community
having visited Wausau every month fol
number of years past, a patient, Mr.
John Rowedell of Middleton, Wis.
who had treated with various doctor:
for Asthma and Catarrh for seyera
years without obtaining help. At time;
he suffered with severe spasmodiC
smothering spells which threatened tc
end his life. He became so reduced in
health that the case had every feature
of hopelessness. In fact the opinion
expressed by some of his former physi
clans was that the Asthma had pro-
gressed and developed into Consump,
ton from which escape could not be ex-
pected.
In this dire extremity, the patient
called upon DR.. Turbin who probed
deeply into the cause of the patients
terrible state. After thorough examin-
alton, DIR. Turbin discovered that his
patient had aggravated diseass of the
Rectum or lower bowel-Stricture OF
the Rectum, FisSures and Piles; with an
inflamed and irritable state of the rec
tai muscles.
For these conditions Dr. Turbin has
wonderfully effective system of treat
ment which he at once applied in this
case with the immediate result of a
complete cure To the astonishment OF
the patient the system of lung disease
absolutely vanished and he soon re-
gained perfect health.
The cause of the terrible spasmodic
affection of the lungs which was at
tended with a frightful cough was due
to special sympathetic effect which
arises from disease of the Rectum in
some cases. Science has lately demon
strated the closest sympathy between
the nerves of the lower bowel and other
parts of the system and the cure of this
seemingly hopeless case shows that DR..
Turbin is the master of grave conditions
by reason of his possession of deep
knowledge and acute skill.
Those who wish to consult special
list who is throughly abreast of advanced
science and who can cure all forms of
chronic diseases of men and women,
may be assured that they are right in
calling on DR.. Turbin. He has the
utmost confidence of many of our fore
most citizens and he merits it, The
doctors profound knowledge and acute
skill plainly observed in this case that
he was master of the situation by
reason.
DR.. Turbin will be in Wausau, Tues
day Dec the 4th at the Bells House

MINE OF GRAPHITE.
The Large Vein at Junction City At
tracing Attention.

For several years past the graphite
mine near Junction City, just over the
south line of Marathon county has been
worked until now the ore shows from
go to "A per cent. graphite carbon by
analysis of different chemists, says a
correspondent to the MIL Evening Wis
consin. The local company which is
now operating the property has but a
faint conception of the possibilities of
production and remuneration of the
mine. With 10 to 20 foot true vein of
20 per cent. carborn, extending longi-
tudinally for 400 OF, 500 feet (as far as
prospeeted, and in all probability many
times that distance, there is an mex
haustible source of supply. Then, too,
whether from ignorance or lack of
necessity, they are simply working the
top of the vein, while with the example
of other mines and minerals it is GER
tainty that much better grade of ore
can be obtained at greater depths.
Twenty to twenty-five feet is as low a
depth as any mining of any account has
been done. In addition they have
opened up on the same property another
vein still wider in extent which assays
nearly as high as the first.
The possibilities of this property with
a reasonable amount of capital invested
in the production and distribution are
greater than il has ever been supposed
existed in the United States in this min
eral and it is surprising that capitalists
have not taken an interest and pre-
sented its advantages in their proper
light before the capitalists of the coun-
try. That such bed of graphite lies
SO near the borders of our county leads
us to think there is more in the neigh
borhood and this is something for our
men of business to think Of

LIKE WAR.
The Number of Men Killed During the
Past Twenty Days, Appalling.


When "Billy'' Allen went around
town trying to purchase conspicuous
red cap to wear in the woods so that
hunters would not take him for deer,
the Pilot was inclined to say some
thing witty at 'Billy's" expense, but
now we think his head was exceedingly
level, as it always is. The number of
persons killed during the open season
makes it necessary for something to be
done. Every hunter should be made to
carry a field glass and examine
objects before shooting; that is, when
at distance and not moving faster
than man would be walking OF
course it would not be necessary to in
spect deer when at close quarters, or
when the hunter was absolutely sure
that it was deer, but always when not
certain If there are any who think it
not necessary to take this precautiOn,
just let them read the following list of
persons who were killed and wounded
since the opening of the season:
