Villas County is Becoming Known.
Considerable of land in this county
especially around this town has
changed hands during the past two
weeks. Several parties of gentlemen
from Illinois and Iowa have bought
large tracts of land upon which they
will locate settlers in the near future
No better place in the state could
be. found in which to buy farm than

land, abundance of water, natural
hay growing and potato raising coun-
try, besides the raising of anything
that can be grown anywhere.
The c. & n. w. Railroad Company
is. contemplating the changing of this
branch3of their line to be the main
line. Instead of spur line, and when
the change is made, it Will cause the
farming lands to jump in value, as a
good market can be reached from here
readily. Let the good cause bespushed

More interest is being taken of this
Northern country all the time by peo-

RAILROAD NOTES.


That rapidly developing terri
tory which occupies thenorthern
half of Wisconsin is not new
enough to cause the hardships
and vicissitudes of frontier life,
and not old enough to keep
away the intending settler on &C
count of exorbitant land prices.
It is in that stage of partial de-
velopment which gives greater
opportunity to bring it to the
highest point Of perfection and
prosperity. Schools, goodroads
and other improvements are GO
ing in. All that is needed, is
a small capital. Drawn and
brain, supplemented by push and
energy will do the rest. The
iron ore, mari. kaolin and clay
beds, the timber and the rich soil
give equal opportunity to the
settler and the manufacturer.
Land is cheap and can be pur-
chased on easy terms.
THE WISCONSIN CENTRAL R'Y.
offers facilities for the quick and
cheap transportation of it's pro-
ducts and as the line penetrates
the very. center Of this vast north
ern territory, choice Of location
is not confined to any one par
ticular locality.
Interesting pamphlets and
maps fully describing this beau
tifal ard rich country can be oh,
tanned by addressing,

HAZEN S. PlNGREE DEAD
LATE GOVERNOR OF MICHIGAN AND
MAYOR OF DETROIT.
He Won Prominence by His War on
Corporations and His PO-
tatO Patches.

A dispatch from London last night says:
Ex-Governor H. 8. Plngree of Michigan
died here tonight at II 80 o'clock.
His son was the only one present at the
time. The attending doctor left Mr.. Pin
gree's bedside at about Ills, promising to
return shortly. II. 8. Pingree, jr., who
had been watching at his fathers side for
four days and who had not removed his
clothes during that time, noticed a sudden
change in his fathers condition. He had
hardly reached the patients bedside, when
his father died peacefully, without warning
and without speaking one word.
Young Mr.. Pingree has wired his mother
and his uncle in tbe United States not to
come to London. The body of the late Mr..
PinSree will be embalmed and taken to his
home.
Mr.. Pingree was attended by three ply
sicians and two nurses.
Dr. Sir Thomas Barlow, Dr. Sir Will
lam Broadbent and DR.. Mills held the last
consultation this evening. The conclusion
was reached that The malignant liberation
of the intestines was so pronounced that
the recovery of the patient was impossible.
The frequent administration of stimulants
alone prevented his collapse earlier in the
day.
DIR. Mills said this evening: ut seems
too bad that the serious nature of Mr..
Plngrees ailment was not discovered ear
to travel on the continent. Mr.. Pingree
received every care and made gallant
fight, but the liberation of the stomach
was the one symptom of the complicated
disease which it was impossible to check
Mrs. Hazen s. Pingree widow of ex-
Governor Pingree, arrived in New York
from Detroit yesterday morning with her
daughter, Hazel II. Pingree, and her hus-
bands brother +. G. Pingree. The party
had started from Detroit as soon they
learned of the seriousness of the illness of
Governor Pingree in London, but received
a cablegram early Jesteday that there was
use of continuing their journey, the
governors condition was so bad they
would arrive in London too late. Last
night they received a cable telling of his
death.
No plans for the funeral have been
made by the family. Mrs Pingree and
her daughter will go back to Detroit. in
stead of taking the steamer St Paul, as
intended. The widow and daughter will be
escorted back home by f. c. Pingree, who
will then Immediately return to this city
to await the arrival of the remains, which
H. s. Pingree, jr., or Joe" as he is called,
who was with his father in London when
he died, will bring to this city on the
and win reach New York in about week.
HaZen s. Pingree was born in Maine in
1912. Up to the time he was fourteen years
old he worked hard on the stony ground
of his fathers small patch of land. At
tending school in winter. he gained a fair
education When not labOring on the farm
he found employment in cotton mills Seek
ing more steady work, Mr.. Pingree went
TO Hopkinton, Mass, and entered shoe
factory there. When the war broke out
young Pingreee enlisted at once and was
