| The warm weather of the past few
days has created an appetite for ice
cream, and this appetite has grown so
strong and the demand for the article
| has become so great that Buchanan,
| the cOnfectiOner, has been forced to
order more tables for his ice cream par
lors. His superior article of Persian
ice cream meets the approval of the
people.
A number of the citizens along Wash
ington street are circulating a petition
| to have that portion of the street mac
| adamized east from where the pave
ment ends at the intersection of Fifth
street. During dry weather that street
| is one of the most dusty in town, owing
to the amount Of travel to and from the
depot, and SO few are willing to pay
for sprinkling that it does not pay the
| the city Sprinkling man to attend to the
wants of IA few patrons.
A patent has been secured by Albert
| Q. Mueller, of this city; on an artificial

movable thumb and fingers attached to
same are operated by the movement OF

| by springs If it is a success, and the
| indications are that it is, it will prove a
| great benefit those in need of such a
thing as well as money maker for the
! inventor.

OuO W IIiC pldtCC anu DlOllSuG the SIuIl

of having lain in their hiding place a
| long while. How they came there is a
mystery, but it is supposed that they
were concealed there by tn iucendaries
who burned up the old cotton farm
some years ago.

application for the admittance of John
Bohne into the home for feeble minded
at Chippewa Falls The mother of the

sides this boy there are four other chill
dren and these have been placed in the

ton shortly. Mrs. Dickens is to be
congratulated for the success of her

The following is taken from the Mil
waukee Sentinel of today: Dr. A. w.
Trevitt, of Wausau, is at the Pfster,
having been called to Milwaukee as a
witness in a suit pending in one of the
courts. The doctor has always taken
ar active part in politics and until
recent years he has been one of the
best campaign speakers whose services
were at the disposal of the State Central
committee. Stalwart Republicanism
is and has always been his speciality,
but three years ago he performed a
surgical operation that nearly cost him
his life, as he developed case of blood
poisoning that continued with him I'M
til quite recently. He now appears to
he fully recovered from his troubles,
however, and hopes to he as stalwart
physically hereafter as he has always
been politically.
