Mrs. John Grifiiths did not know a
good thing when she had It, Up to a
year ago she made Butte her home, but
she acquired a notion that Kansas was
hotter place than Montana and asked
the county commissioners to send her
and her five children and two cows into
the land of grasshoppers and prohibition.
The commissioners sent the family, but
did nothing for the COWS. A few months
ago Mrs. Griff1ths invaded the sacred
precincts Of Oklahoma territory, a coun-
try full Of train robbers, Indians, Sum
day schools. tarantulas. centipedes ana
bad brand Of bug Juice but she now
desires to come back to Butte, as she has
found this section equally as hot as
Kansas. She has no money and wants
the county commissioners to send her
railroad tickets for six. A letter was
received from her by the board today.
In 1t she says:
ITO the honorable board Of commits
sioners I would like for you to help me
get back in Butte I came back here 4
year ago last month I cannot live here
any longer it is to hot here I have not
had any health since l have been here

The board has decided to let Mrs.
Griffiths and her five children stay in
Oklahoma and wait for next years corn
crop, as Butte is already full of paupers
shipped in from other states. and the
number is increasing every day.

MI. klShAfu j. IS1haiiSPon,
after thirty-hve years Of continuous
and active service in the grain bust
ness has retired. He has sold the
business and leased his building to
Messrs. Joseph GRADER and Henry
Thios, who took possession today.
Mr.. Ponhallegon says that there has
been II complete revolution In the
grain trade during the time he has
been engaged In IL. Thirty five years
ago, retailing grain was not thought
of. TO sell small quantity was re-
gardod rs an accommodation rather
than n regular part of the business.
The buyer would be expected to either
get II dray to haul it from the ware
house, or carry 1t away In n sack up
on his back Storing grain and ship
ping it to market engaged the grain
Dealers attention and brought him
his returns. Today, retailing Is the
principal part Of the business, with
utllNbll 10 w 'bliNl iAii1pt INV Va
charge to any part of the city.
Farmers buy flour and ground feed,
where thirty-hve years ago they all
raised the wheat from which their
flour was made. Dairying and stock
raising have become the chief indus
tries of this section Of Wisconsin,
and MIR. Penhallegon thinks the
change Is for the better. The pro-
ducts OF the farms are greater in
value than formerly, but they are
shipped in less bulky form, while the
lands, instead of wearing out, are
steadily improving. Mr.. Penhallegon
has been honorable and stralghtfor-
ward in all his transactions. His
success In business has been we'll de
served, In saying good word for
him, The Democrat but voices public
sentiment. His successors are good,
active men, and will without doubt
command good trade.

The p. NJ. Anniversary
Services

held at DOdgeville last Sunday were
a success. We had a good turnout at
l0:3O, and after some choice selections
by our choir, we listened to fine
sermon by Rev. 4. D. Macs, of
Ridgeway.
AT 2:30 we were out in full force
with full house, the Mineral Point
male quartet, with Mrs. Edith Pri-
deau as organist, taking charge of the
special singing, after which Rev. J.
Hardcastle, of Mineral Point, captur-
ed the hearts of his hearers by his
earnest appeals. There was a good
feeling, and after the sermon the
Dodgeville people were busy looking
around to find some one in need of
supper. The rain was very pleasing
to US all, though breaking in little
on the evening service, Still there
was a gOodly number out to hear
Rev. Philip Allen, Of Mineral Point.
But on account of the rain, Bro.
Allen failed to appear.
After the praise service, the quartet
treated us to a few more of their
choice songs, which were appreciated
by all. A sermon was then preached
by Rev. Robt. Martin, followed by a
solo by Bro. Draper, of Dodgeville.
We wish to tender our hearty
thanks as a society to the trustees of
the NJ. f. church for their kindness
in granting us the use of their church
for our anniversary services. We al
so extend a vote of thanks to the
members of the male quartet of Min
eral Point, for their kind assistance,
and the DOdgevtlle people say, Come
again and do likewise"
