Rural Mail Delivery and Good Roads.

The Country Postmaster.
The opinion quite freely expressed
when the rural mail delivery system
was started that the delivery of the
mails more directly to the farmers
would result in the improvement of
country roads, is being sustained by
reports received by the post office
department from it's employees in the
Middle and Western states says the
Evening Wisconsin. The farmers in
some sections who had early been
favored by the establishment of rural
routes in conformity :with urgent
requests therefor, overlooked the
need of good roads to make such SER
vice as efficient as it ought to be-.
The department promptly notified
them Of the almost impassable condi-
tion of some Of the roads on the new
mail routes and supplemented the
information with the declaration that
if measures were not Immediately
instituted to better conditions for the
distributors, the route would be
discontinued until such time as the
roads become fit for the mail service.
These notifications of the delinquent
farmers had the desired effect in every
instance, and the rural mail delivery
system and the good roads movement
may now be said to be hand in hand.

which were to be delivered to them
each year being specified.
When Coroner Dickens Of WauSau
arrived at the scene of the fire the
Friday following its occurrence, he
ordered search made for the remains
OF the klokOwS. but no trace of them
could be found. Acting on his in-
StructiOnS, searching parties were
sent out in all directions to sec if any
trace of the KlokowS could be dis
covered, and this failing. men were
set to work dragging a small stream
that ran through the farm. Two days
were spent at this without success.
Then District Attorney Fl, H. Manson
started another and more careful
search among the debris of the house
and WAS rewarded by finding a small
piece of jawbOne, a piece of the top
of skull and several other fragments
Of bone.
The inquest was held at Spencer No.
Il. at which time the jury in it's ver-
dict asked the district attorney to
take further steps in the matter
which was done later. SchwanteS

Broncho Runaway.

Talk about running horses, John B.
Arpin has Broncho that takes the
cake. He was hitched up Monday for
the first time and he was not wholly
hitched in the fills when he com
menced to kick and he kept it up
until every part Of the vehicle was
free from him then he started for
down town. When he made the
turn at the Wood County National
Bank corner he slipped and fell and
there was caught, otherwise he would
be going yet. The horse was unhurt,
but the buggy was badly demolished.
The BrQncho is a dandy and high
spirited. Any one in need of such an
animal can probably be supplied by
applying to the owner.

A CREAMERY
May Be Erected II Barre
NEAR TR0W FARM
A Meeting Of Farmers To Be
Called Soon

There is considerable talk among
some OF the farmers In the town OF
Barre Of starting up creamery in the
east end OF the town near John Trow s
-Four Corners. A meeting Of the in
terested parties will soon be held to
take definite steps in the matter.
As now reckoned there are about
$50 cows kept within radius of two
miles of the place and if there was a
creamery there it is thought that
many more cows would be kept.
The promoters say that a
creamery Can be conducted on a
paying basis with the milk from d
smaller number Of COWS than there is
in the vicinity. :They arguesthat such
an institution would furnish safe
and permanent market for all the
milk that could be produced in the
vicinity, and that all butter made
gould easily be sold at good profit.
1t is also claimed on the part of the
promoters that if all the milk raised
was delivered at the creamery, the
women on the farm would be relieved
of the labor of butter-making which
would tighten the farm work consid-
erably.
The scheme is in the hands OF some
Of the most progressive farmers in the
town and will be pushed through if
such an end is possible thing.

A GOOD LAW NOT ENFORCED.

The wide tire law is all right and
good law il it were properly enforc-
ed, but it Is not. II it we're am con-
vinced we should have better roads in
the town of Barre" said Road Com
missioner John Jones OF the town Of
Barre to TELEGRAM representative
yesterday afternoon.
The only trouble with the law"
he continued sis that it is not en-
forced We tried to enforce it while
and our roads we're all the better while
the law was obeyed. But the law is
now broken more every day than it is
obeyed. Some teamSterS draw as much
on wagon with three nch tires as al
lowed by the law for wagons with six
inch tires. The fault is with the Sc
lectmen that the law is not enforced,
and just as long as things are let 60
the way they are now we shall con-
tinue to have bad roads in The town
of Barre.
THE fault does not lie wholly with
the town officials. Your city officials
allow the law to be violated every day
and yet you complain OF the poor streets
YOU have in the city. II the city and
town officials should unite and compel
al enforcement Of the law, you could
do something with the streets and
roads. "

WALKED THE WIRES.

Glouchester, Aug. 3-Residents on
Duncan street, this city, were treated
to an exceedingly unusual sight lit
tie before the witching hour last
night.
Loud cries Of encouragement in the
street awakened people and attracted
them to the windows, and there they
beheld Benz imin Kinney,a we'll known
local character, walking on the electric
wires, nearly twenty feet above the
pavement.
Benjamin proceeded a short distance,
lost his footing, eau bit himself, and
was going along the wire hand over
hand with the dtxFerity of circus
performer, when the glass insulator
on one Of the poles broke, causing him
to lose his hold and fall heavily 20 the
ground.
Apparently dead, he was taken to
the doorstep Of house near by, and
Mrs. Peter JOdrey, the occupant, who
had seen the occurrence. with the as
sistance of KenLey's two companions
was at length successful in bringing
him to.

CAME TO LIFE

Guildhall, Aug 3.-"Isn't it pref
ty near time for dinner?" was the
query that astonished an undertaken
and embalmer that came to admins
ter the last physical rites to DR.. Mel
son Call OF this town. AS case Of
suspended animation this was re.
markable. ALI the physicians Of the
surrounding counties are arriving
with inquiries as to the facts OF the
case, ana SO far all have shaken their
heads and declared it beyond them.
1.-THE facts, SO far as known, are
these: d.. Nelson Call OF Guildhall
was driving spirited horse from
Gloveton, four miles above this town
on the New Hampshire side OF = 4
liver At railroad crossing the an.
imal became frightened and unman-
ageabl- and ran away. Soon after it
had departed on it's independent
course it ran the vehicle into ditch
aud the doctor was thrown out.
Some pasSers by saw the man ing
prone and insensi ole, and n being rec
ognjzed he was taken to his home. A
physician was called in and pronounc
ed life extinct, saying that the mans
neck was broken.
About noon Monday the undertaken
and tmbalmer, who had been tele-
phoned for, arrived. They viewed
the deceased and prepared to make
him ready for the coffin. They were
in The midst of an argument over the
embalmlng tools when the supposed
corpse sat up, and leaning on ms ell
bow, asked sleepily if it wasn't nearly
time for dinner.
Before their astonished eyes he then
got up and walked into the kitchen,
where he partook of hearty meal.
They dropped their implements and
fled. In the afternoon he was OBJ
served doing good half.day's haying
in his meadow.
There is no do lbt that the
doctor was thrown on his head and
rendered insensible, as he says the
last thing he remembers is leaving the
buggy on the fly. But what particu-
lar part of the head one has to land
on to suspend all the functions that
give trace Of life to the examiner
