OPERATIONS 10 COMMENCE
WITHIN TWO WEEKS UPON THE
CONsTRUETION OF THE LINE
OF THE
TELEPHONE CO.,
OF West Virginia-A Meeting of the
Incorporators Held fin This city
Yesterday at Howard & HandIan's
Offcc-The Election of officers,
other Business Contracted.

To all appearances the National Tel
ephone Company of w. Va, will have
its lines within the city in operation
by the time the snow flies. The COM
pany is evidently anxious to commence
operations as soon as possible, for ar
rangements are being made to institute
the construction of the lines and the
plant very shortly. It's ordinance
passed council about four months ago.
A meeting of the incorporators was
held in this city yesterday at the Office
of Howard & Handlan, on Chapline
street The following officers were
elected:
President. Henry Schmulbach, of this
city.
Vice President, J. J. Walsh, of Balti-
more, Md
Secretary, William C. Handlan, of
this city.
Board of Dlrectors-Henry Schmul-
bach, John A. Howard, B. K. McMech-
en-, of this city; j. j. Walsh and E. L.
Ward, of Baltimore
There was present at the meeting an
eastern expert, representing the Ma
tional, of Maryland, who submitted
plans and specifications for approval
Specifications for the plant and the
line construction were gone over. A
site for the plant will be selected with
in the next ten days, and work upon it
will then be started at once. Accord
ing to the franchise the lines must be
in operation within two years after it's
passage.
1t is the intention to have an under
ground conduit system throughout the
central and business section Of the
city. The rest of the construction will
be overhead
The directors ordered that solicitors
be sent out Immediately for subscrip-
tons, in order that when the company
is ready to put in phones there will be
no delays.
At the time the National Telephone
Company of West Virginia got their
franchise through council there were
three other Independent companies en-
deavoring to secure a franchise for
like enterprise. The National is a
branch of the big National company of
tAe East. The original company is
very big concern, anti-Bell, with
capitalization of 100000 600. 1t, is
backed by such men as William C.
Whitney, Steve Elkins and Brown
Bros, of Baltimore The latter were
the original promoters of the concern.
From its original foundation in Bal
timore, it has branched out until it
controls lines all the way to st. Louis
and Chicago. There is a big company
at Pittsburg, with its ramifications
branching out in all directions. This
is the branch with which the Wheel
ing company is joined in
The company's policy is to take I'D
franchise wherever they can get one,
no matter how small the town. When
there are enough lines secured in any
community they connect them up. The
lines go by different names in different
States. Eventually the company will
combine its various companies into one
large one, which is calculated to afford
severe competition for the Bell.

Creamery Butter Contest.

The extreme mudiness and bad
condition of the roads, last Sat.
urday, prevented full attendance
at the contest and several of the
c1eameries failed to get their butter
here, although all had prepared
for it. Quite number, however,
were in attendace and, aside from
the talks by experts, they did con-
siderable business and had good
time. w. S. Moore, from Chicago,
end r. A. Leighton, of New Hamp-
ton, did the marking of the butter,
and they are too well known for
anyone to doubt but they under
stand their business. After the
grading and lunch Mr.. Leighton
aud others gave very entertaining
talks along the line of butter max
ing. Among the remarks by Leigh.
ton were some that might be of in
terest to the farmers. He said that
much of the good butter depended
on how the farmer handled the
milk. If they were clean and, in
the summer time. kept the butter
in a cool place it would aid the but
termaker materially. And, too, the
kind of feed cows get will mark
largely the grade of butter. He
also stated that the butterm akers of
Audubon county ranked among
the best in the State. Each one is
student i'll his line and each day
finds him getting everything in
shape for better work. He urged
upon every creamery in the coun-
try the entering of butter in the
| contest to be held at Storm Lake on
the 18th and 10th of this month.
/ Everyone recognizes that this is
Zone of the hardest months, for
now the cows can scarcely get a
good grade of grass for feed and
the faint in turn goes to the butter.
Here again can be urged cleanliness
in everything. The butter was sold
to the w. S. Moore Company, of
Chicago, at twenty-one cents per
4 pound. The markings were as fol-

Will Donaldson Dead.

Will Donaldson died at his home
in The Home Bakery, Tuesday,
night, of typhoid fever, and was
buried Thursday in the Maple
Grove Cemetery, at Audubon. The
funeral services were conducted in
the Methodist church, at Audubon,
by the Rev. LOOMS.
William F. Donaldson was born
near Polk City, Polk county. Iowa,
August Is, 1870. When he was ten
years old HIS parents moved to Lin
coin township, Audubon county,
where he lived until 1890, when they
moved to Audubon where he has
lived until last March. when they
came to Extra and embarked in
business. He was married January
s, 1896. to Jennie Dawson, in Audu-
bon. He was taken i'll trifle over
week before his death, and up to
six o'clock of the evening of his
death was not thought to be dan
gerous. He was then taken worse
and by "a quarter to ten internal
hemorrage had doneits worst.
Thus, in the very morning of a life
full of promise, an honorable citi-
zen has been called home. The som
Der mantle of death closed in with
the falling shades of night, and he
listened to the whirr of wings that
bore him away. A kind, indulgent
husband has been taken from
wife who worshiped him as her
ideal. A father has gone from the
child he idolized and worshiped.
His life through has been one that
n eds no eulogy to speak it's merits.
From early boyhood he has been
honored and respected. He has
grown up with but one high and
noble ideal-honesty and upright
ness. His business relations have
always been pleasant, and the
words now on the lips of his friends
speak naught but good.
A mother, a brother and sister
have preceded him to the land
beyond, and a father and sister are
left to mourn for him. But may
not we, who know him, see the hope
beyond and while tears of sorrow
flow as in the silent lonliness. we
think of him who is gone believe
that in that dim, unknown world
beyond he waits with patience born
of love for the reuniting. And thus.
as sympathetic, heart-burning tear ;
sparkle in the sunlight of love over
his grave, let the hand Of hope bear
those who love him to the great
beyond.
