The old command of Captain
Newton turned out in large num-

Captain Newton, upon his re-
turn from the islands, was pre-
sented with a medal of honor by
the recent state legislature, and
the sword tonight was the gift
of his fellow tcwnsmen, who had
not before risen to express their
approval.
Philippine scenes are pictured
on the blade, and one side has a
picture of the five Americans
who took part in the Aguinalda
expedition.
Senator Edgar G. Mills pre-
sented the sword with a brilliant
speech, saying:
THE American people are q patri
otto people. In no other character
istic is there such intensity of feel
ing. We are not a warlike nation.
All our wars have been wars for

A fire which probably had
been smouldering in the walls
and ceilings of the Spring City
hotel for perhaps II hours, broke
out about II o'clock Wednesday
night, and in spite of the efforts
of the fremen, caused the al
most total loss of that popular
summer hotel, together with it's
contents. The building is situat-
ed, on the corner of Grand ave-
nue. and Wisconsin street, with
in about 400 feet of the post Of
fee, and the blocks in the bust
ness districts were not far
enough away to entirely free
them from danger, but luckily
there was not strong wind.
The present Spring City hotel
was frame structure, complet
ed in the spring of 1887, and
contained all the improvements
requisite for a first class house.
1t has been under the manage
ment of Geo. r. Jones continu-
ously since that time and had
always been very popular with
summer guests. The total valua-
ton of the building and contents
is about $4,000, and about three

DANIEL Richey, serving a life
sentence for murder in the first
degree, died at the prison last
week after an illness of several
months, Death was due to a
maligant tumor or sarcoma.
lRichey's case attracted wide
newspaper attention at the time,
especially in northern Wisconsin,
where both he and his victim
were well known. The crime for
which Richey was sentenced was
the killing of William Armine, an
employee of the wisconsin Cen
trail railway at Ashland, in the
fall of 1889 Richey was
saloon keeper, and Armine, who
was but youth, called for
drink. He ordered drinks for
the crowd, and after they were
served told Richey to charge
them to him. This Richey refus
ed to do and some words ensued,
the result Of which was that Ar.
mine picked up a beer tray and
struck Richey over the head.
Armine then went out into the
street and began throwing frozen
clay in through the saloon win
dows at Richey. Richey then
picked up a revolver and going
out into the street fired in the
direction that Armina had run.
On account of the darkness of
the night Richey was unable to
see where he was shooting, but
the shot struck Armine in the
back of the head, killing him in
stantly. Richey was arrested
and locked up, but a short time
afterwards made his escape.
He remained at liberty for
about six years and was captured
at Alton, ILL.,, after he had had a
quarrel with a former associate,
who knew him to be fugitive
from justice and who notified the
sheriff of Ashland county.
Richey was taken to Ashland,
tried, convicted, and on Novem-
Der II, 1895, was sentenced to
imprisonment for the term of his
natural life.
Richey always maintained that
he did not intend to Kill the boy,
and that he shot over his head.

ever more exposed to almost instant
death than was that little body COM
posed of Newton. Funston, Hazard
and Mitchell, when their hands fell
upon the shoulders of Aguinaldo and
he was their prisoner, yet they we're
surrounded by hundreds of the enc
my, in the heart of the enemy's
country, hundreds of miles from aid.
That act of bravery saved the lives
of an untold number of American
soldiers and poor Philippines. The
names of Newton, Funston, Hazard
and Mitchell have been emblazoned
on the pages of perpetual American
history and will go sounding down
the ages as the bravest of the brave.
@''To-night we have met here to do
honor to Captain Newton. Langu-
age is too feeble to express the feel
ings of his old associates. In a
feeble, yet with all the feeling with
in the command of man, there has
been prepared this beautiful sword.
,''Captain Newt ton, in behalf of the
people of Superior, people who have
watched you as you drilled your lit
tie playmates with fife and drum
upon the banks of old Lake Superior,
people who have learned to love you
in civil life, people who, with pleas
ure, have watched you climb the
ladder of fame, and as you struggled
upward and earned each rung you
mastered, have enjoyed your fame
and made it their fame, in behalf OF
this people, present you this sword.
In your hands we entrust it, as we
would entrust it in the hands of the
American army. In fact, in you, we
see all that is grand and noble of a
great and patriotic army. Keep it,
as a slight token of the esteem by
your fellow citizens"
In accepting the sword Captain
Newton replied feelingly. He said:
Senator Mills and Friends: Once
more am the recipient of honors at
your hands. The first time was up
on my return home, when your re-
preventative in the state legislature
presented me with this beautiful
badge which I wear. 1t was proved
then by the thousand of faces |
saw surrounding me that you
had pride. pleasure and satisfaction
in welcoming one whose home
is your home. Tonight the kind
words given with that which is dear
to every officer, the emblem of his
Office, shall make it doubiy dear.
| You have engaved in letters that
shall never be erased the words
TO man and soldier There is
no higher tribute. To be the first
authority one must be tempered
that the first will make the second.
To express my feelings in the small
est degree is. beyond my power.
You call it my home. It shall be a
token of remembrance wherever |
am, whether in the farthest corner
of our distant possessions or here at
home"

decorated and prominent among the
decorations were the flags, national
and state, presented to Company |
