A Local Newspaper.

The local newspaper should be

contains not one word about any

saw or perhaps heard Of, and how DO
YOU expect them to be interested
But let them read the home paper ana

A SAD DEATH.
Hester Wade, Daughter of Geo. Wade,
Dies Enroute to Colorado.

The sad news came To Wisconsin
relatives and friends this week an
nouncing the death of Hester Wade,
fifteen-year-old daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Geo. Wade. who resides in Craw-
ford county across the river from
Boscobel.
Deceased was sufferer from quick
consumption and had been under
physicians care for some time. In
hopes of improving her cond. ion, the
fond parents decided to remove her
to change of cline and on Tuesday
last the mother and daughter boarded
a train at Pot0si, bound for Colorado.
The change was more than the en-
feebled girl could stand however and
on the day following she died aboard
the train at Red Cloud, Neb Ii was
a sad journey indeed and ended pre-
matufely. The mother Immediately
advised Wisconsin relatives, and as
soon as necessary arrangements could
be made, started on her homeward
trip with the remains.
The family until short time ago
resided near Lancaster in the town Of
Little Grant and it was planned to
bring the remains here for funeral
and interment. The funeral party ar
rived Monday and the last sad rites
were conduced at the NJ. F. church al
Boice creek yesterday forenoon.
The bereaved family have the sym
pathy of everyone in this their hour

Boscobel People in The Tolls.

Deputy Sheriff Jacob Miller and
Marshal VIM. Henry came to Lancas-
ter Wednesday night of last week
having ia custody Geo. Ostrander,
Ezra Philips and young woman
named Culver. The trio with another
female of questionable character who
il sister to the one mentioned above
were placed under arrest in Boscobel
the night previous, charged with rum
aing a house of i'll repute. A prelim-
mary hearing was given them on the
following morning before Justice
Richardson and continuance taken
10 Jan. 3rd. Bonds were fixed at
$3.50 each. The father of young
Ostrander offered to bail him out,
bat the gallant cavalier in a most
self-sacrifcing spirit refused to accept
the proffer unless his ..little wiley
could share liberty with him. He
even exhibited such remarkable de-
yotion as to declare that il the old
gentleman was able to furnish bonds
for but one that he would go behind
the prison walls that his loved one
might be privileged from SO doing.
The parent die not take kindly to
this proposition and not until the
auartette was loaded into a convey
ance to be brought to county Jail did
he relent to the entreaties Of his way
ward son and 60 security for his al
legged brides appearance at the hearing.
The women in the case recently
came to Boscobel from Richland Cen
ter where their reputation was not
the best. The young men are Bosco-
bel boys, and they fell in with the
worldly maidens at Riehland Center,
coming to Boscobel with them. Os-
trander claims one of the women to
be his wife.

DEATH BY FREEZING.
Matt Cubaditch Perishes From the Cold
Near Montfort.

The body of man frozen stiff was
found b. two hunters near Montfort
Wednesday morning Of last week, and
an investigation proved the unfortu-
nate victim to be Matt Cubaditch, a
miner living near Centerville. He
had been missing from his home
since the Friday night previous.
though his family was not greatly
concerned as he frequently made trips
throughout the mining districts in
search of work and would be absent
many days without any knowledge to
them of his whereabouts.
When found one leg was extended,
the other cramped. His arms were
bent so That his hands were near his
face. His thumbs were enclosed in
mis- clinched hands, and showed what
must have been the sufferings of the
dying man. His face was despatched
with blood from bad cut directly
between his eyes. Indications showed
that he had fallen about five feet over
an embankment and probably sus-
tanned the injury in the fall which
stunned him and made him an easy
victim to the cold that was gradually
overpowering him. He must have
got out OF the ditch as the body was
found several ieet from where he fell.
A coroner's inquest was held Thurs
day at Montfort. Deceased was in
the employ of c. w. Knapp during
the entire summer at his mines in
this locality.

Views and Interviews.

Chairman VIM. Leighton Of Little
Grant transacted business in Lancas-
ter Saturday, and incidentally favored
Us with a call. In speaking OF the
new court house Mr.. Leighton stated
that while his constituents in Little
Grant were not in favor of the propo-
sition in the first place they now have
submitted willingly to the rule of the
majority and will be glad to see the
county possess fitting capitol. This
is the general sentiment throughout
the county.

A New Writer of the .HOosier School. )

With Gen. Lew Wallace and James
Riley as its deans, the 'Hoosier School
of poets and authors is assuming.
prominent place in the field of Ameri-
can letters The late Maurice Thomp-
son and Charles Major ana Booth
Harrington have each contributed to
and are still adding to its fame, and
now a comparatively new name is writ
ten beside these: Frederick NJ. Smith
Mr.. Smith is native of Indiana, who
confesses that he has been trying to
learn 10 write for ten years, and also
that the reason his writings haven t
appeared oftener is not so much his
fault as the editors One Of his first
stories to attract general attention
was The Blue Gown that Wouldn't
Fit which came ont in the Ladies
Home journal last August
Since then he has contributed short
romance called Christine to the same
magazine. and an interesting note
about this tale is that il is not wholly
child Of invention The material
for it was gathered in Germany. where
