His Tongue Was Cut Out
Yet he is Able to Talk.

NEw YoRK, May 11--Lecturer William
Fl. Champion has demonstrated the fal
sity OF the belief that the tongue is ne
cessary for speech.
Mr.. Crampton's tongue was removed
by surgeons in the. .seney hospital
Brooklyn, on April IL last. but yester
day at his home he talked with re-
porter about the operation and Other
happenings in his eyentful life.
His articulation was not wholly per.
feet, but he spoke clearly and without
much difficulty. Now and then he
would slur syllable in certain words,
but his enunciation for the most part
was as good as the average. He has a
deep, sonorous voice, and this has prac-
tically been unaffected by the operation
he has passed through.
Mr.. Champion for years has been q
lecturer, and when the doctors told him
that he would be speechless after the
operation he decided TO perpetuate his
lectures by talking them into phono.

The operation was an elaborate one,
as his tongue and the left side OF his jaw
and neck were affected by cancerous
growth. All of this had to be cut away,
and for nearly three hours he was under
the knife oi DR.. L. s. Pitcher. Mr.,
Champion thought he had lost the power
of speech until Thu sday last. On that
day it was found that the wounds on in
his mouth and neck were practically
healed, and after they had been dressed
DR.. Pitcher unthinkingly asked:
I "How do you feel, Crampton?"
"All right, DOCTOR" answered the sup
posedly speechless man, much to his
own surprise and that of the doctor.
That same day Mr.. Champion returned
to his home, at No. 426 Thirteenth ST.,
Brooklyn. Yesterday, after describing
in detail the operation, he said that
while he can talk fairly we'll, he will de-
liver his lectures for some time through
the photograph records that were made
the day before the operation was per-
formed.

Death CT Senator Fearne.

In the death OF Senator Fearne of
Waushara county, which occurred at
his home in Coloma, Monday Evening,
April 29th, this district loses an IN
fiuentlal republican and representa-
tive in the state senate. Senator
Fearne was a native of Hamilton,
Canada, where he was born on Nov.
IA, 1916, and received common school
education. He came to this state in
1865 and settled in the town of Rich
field, Adams county, where he resided
until 1864, when he moved to Coloma,
where he has been a resident ever
since. He was farmer by occupation
took an active part in Republican
politics in that section Of the state,
and has held number of public offices.
He served his county as sheriff in 1888
and 1884 and from 1891 TO 1892 acted as
town clerk. He was member of the
town board and served as chairman OF
the supervisors for the past eighteen
years. In 1898 he was elected to rep
resent the Ninth district in the sen.
ate and his district comprised Adams,
Marquette. WauShara and Wood
counties. He was of quiet disposi.
tion, we'll thought of by every member
of the legislature and man of the
highest integrity and character. Mr.
Fearne is survived by family.
1t is not thought that the vacancy
caused by the senator's death will be
filled until the regular election in the
fall of 1902.

OUR PROPOSED WATERWORKS.

The city has voted to borrow 100000
for the extension of it's waterworks,
and if this is wisely expended, it will
be step forward in the line of modern
progress. On the contrary, if foolishly
expended, the plant will 60 down as
an unnecessary burden to our children,
and monument to our folly or perfidy
or both.
This step should be fully discussed
through the local papers and by every
citizen who has any interest in the
welfare of the town. / desire now to
state few fundamental truths that
should never be lost sight Of.
First, If justice is done, the users of
water service will, in the end, have to
pay for that service the $50, 900
borrowed by the city.
Second, These users will also have to
pay interest on the same until paid,
and
Third, they will have to pay the
running expenses.
This burden should be distributed
to each user exactly in proportion to
the part of the whole service he con-
sumes. Any free water service or
rebate or variation from this full
pro rata share will be fraud upon the
other users of the service. The city
itself is no exception from this rule of
justice.
So, in order to get the best water
service at the least possible cost, the
work of construction must be done at
the least possible cost compatible with
good construction. The rate of inter-
est must be made, as low as the market
will allow, and The plant hereafter
must be operated with the highest
economy compatible with good service
1t is useless to spend time to discuss
the ownership Or the control of the
plant, except so tar as this relates to
economy in construction, interest on
the debt and the running expenses. If
each of these are reduced to d
minimum and the users have to foot
only this bill, it will make no differ
ence to them as to whether the plant
is controlled and owned by the city,
by the Electric Light company, or by
John Jones from Halifax.
On the item Of construction there
is no good reason to believe that the
city cannot let contract, on as
favorable terms as it could be let by
anyone AS to the item of interest,
we know from investigation that
thousands of dollars can be saved by
using the city's credit. The city can

DESTROYED BY FIRE.
The Town of Wautoma Meets With a Dis.
astrous Fire Monday.

A terrible tire occurred at WautOma,
the county seat of Waushara county.
Monday. resulting in the destruction
of twenty business and dive ling
houses with their contents. The
estimated loss is 100000 A very high
wind prevailed and with practically
no means for fighting fire the people
we're HELPLESS to prevent the spread of
the flames. The fire had burned itself
out about 9 o'clock Tuesday morning.
The following is list of the losses
sustained:
Joseph Minsky, bakery; S. Withing-
ton, restaurant: o. J. Weiss, millin-
cry; G. e. Hunt. drug store; Eichstadt,
saloon; Baxter & LOvedahl, saloon:
Miss McKeague, millinery; J. A.

w. Hayne, jewelry and furniture;
WauShara Argus office; G. A. r. hall;
E. E. Bean, Lincoln house: HI. Heur,

The following are the families left
homeless: D. Lillicrap, Henry Huer,
j. Yates, Samuel Wilmington, J. A.
White, Joseph Minski, W. G. Hotch-
kiss, o. j. Weinn.
The survey of the Princeton &
Northwestern road passes through
WautOma and the town is looked upon
as a prospective good local business
center, and the burned district will
probably be quickly rebuilt in a more
substantial manner than ever.

MARSHfIELD ROAD SOLD,
The Wisconsin Central Becomes Owner of il
This Week.


The news of the sale of the Marsh.
field and Southeastern road to the
Wisconsin Central was family rumored
about town early in the week and was
confirmed Wednesday morning by an
interview of a Milwaukee Sentinel
reporter with President Fl. F. Whit
comb of the Central line. The
purchase was made and the NJ. &. S.
E. road will be turned over to the
Central people this week. .ebut the
price paid could not be learned. This
is welcome and important news to
Grand Rapids people, because it means
four good lines Of railroad competing
for our freight and passenger traffic.
1t is rumOred, and the rumor is full of
probability, that the Central will
extend this line from Nekoosa to Fond
du Lac via Of Plaintield and Berlin
thus shortening the line between st.
Paul and Chicago materially. 1t can
but add to the commercial Importance
of Grand Rapids which is beginning
to be generally recognized as one of
the coming large cities of the Wiscon-
sin Valley.
Our faith has been pinned to the
Rapids for the past forty years and is
growing in magnitude every day. 1t
does not require much of a draft on
our imagination to see electric street
railways and all other accompanimentS
of bustling city being enacted on
our streets in the near future. All of
the good things will be given an
enthusiastic welcome and we'll help
''push it along" but the evil, detri-
mental and retrOgresSive we hope will
look up some other location.

A CHASTITY FIND.
Doubled Like a Jack.knife About the Roots OF
Tree, the BIoated Body OF Lewis knut-
son is Found.

On Saturday last while John Steit
OF this city was searching the river
between here and BirOn for stray
logs, he discovered the dead and
bloated body of man on an old wing
dam on the east side of Big Island
about 40 rods from the head of the
island in the main channel of the
Wisconsin river and about 100 rods
below the Van Slate place. He
reported the find down town and
Justice T. ]. Cooper, acting for the
coroner, summoned jury who viewed
the remains and came to the following
verdict. That the body was that of
Lewis KnutsOn and that he came to
his death On or about Oct. a, 1900, by
accidentally drowning in the Wiscon-
sin river. The features of the
deceased were so disfgured by their
six months immersion in the water
that they could not be identified, but
Emile Larson, who was in the boat
with KnutSon at the time of the
accident when he was drowned, easily
identified the clothing as that which
KnutSon wore at the time, as also did
j. A. Cohen who sold him a part Of
the clothes he wore that day. The
body was taken to Geo. Bakers S
undertaking establishment and pre-
pared for burial and funeral services
were held at Four Mile Creek on
Sunday where the remains were
inferred. The jurors in the case were
NJ. P. Nilsson, VIM. Bulgrin, E. V.
Baldwin. Geo. Hamm, Mat Schlig,
and Mike Lemense.
1t will be remembered that young
knutSOn in company with Emile
Larson had gone to Biron to work on
the repairs to the dam in October last,
and in crossing the dam in a boat was
caught in the swiftly flowing water
and carried through sluice into the
turbulant water below the dam.
Knutson, becoming frightened jumped
out of the boat and attempted 70
swim ashore, but was drowned in the
and vigorous search for a
number of days failed to locate his
body. 1t was very sad accident as
he was a young man of steady habits
and the mainStay of aged parents.

borrow at 81 per cent: the Electric
Light company would have to pay at
least 5 per cent; and a private indi-
yidual would probably have to pay at
least 6 per cent. Figure this on $50, 900
for 80 years and you will see that the
saving is nearly one-half the cost of
the plant.
The steps we have so far taken.
undoubtedly, are right. The problems
before US now are the construction of
the plant, and how it shall hereafter
be operated. In discussing these,
never lose sight of the fact that the
users of the service should foot the
bill, and that the aim should be to
make that bill as small as is consistent
with good service.
