LANGIN GETS THE NEWS.
Kenosha Man Hears of Decision of Court
in His Cell at Waurun.

Frank Langin heard the news of the
decision of the Supreme Court in his
case Tuesday evening when he started
to leave his cell at the Waupun prison
to go to supper. The young man was
overcome when it was announced tor
him that the Supreme Court had de-
cided that he should have new trial
and that he was practically a free
man. He was so overjoyed that he.
moved as a man in a dream. Long
after supper he asked for paper and
writing materials and wrote many let
ters of thanks to his friends who had
assisted in bringing the case to the,
Supreme Court. Attorney Slater this
morning received telegram Of thanks,
and congratulations from the young
man.
Langin will undoubtedly be released
from prison within a few days and it
is certain that the case against him
will never be brought to trial. 1t is
expected that Langin will return to his,
home in this city in the near future.
The decision of the court in the case
is causing comment in all parts of the

Interior Beautifully Redecorated and Re-
furnished in an Elaborate Manner.

The Gottfredsen jewelry store on
Main street is now one of the most
complete jewe1ry stores in Southern
Wisconsin and it is doubtful if any

splendid equipment which has just
been put into the store.
The entire store room has been re-
decorated in beautiful manner and
added to the large cases to display
goods two new cases of much larger
pattern have been put in for the pur-
pose of displaying cut glass goods and
silver novelties. The cases are the
largest ever brought into jewe1ry
store in Keuosha aud they are loaded
down with beautiful gifts for the ho1i-
day trade.
With the increase of equipment the
Gottfredsen company have materially
increased their stock of goods and the
holiday stock will be the largest ever
shown in Kenosha.

Well Known Kenosha Woman VIII Suggest
New Methods for Wisconsin Schools.

Mrs. Mary D. Bradford, former
we'll known resident of Kenosha, has
been highly honored by the State by

AS IT SHOULD BE.

One occasionally hears that even christians. ministers and their hocks are not always dwelling together in broth erly love. Yet it is a pleasure to learn that Litchfield county at least is setting the church noble example in this par ticular, as the following instances, which we take from the New York Churchman, vividly illustrates:
 It is pleasant to record instances of generous affection shown by parishes toward their rectors, inasmuch as the secular papers often emphasize tue darker phases of the relation between clergy and people In this connection we note that Trinity Church, Torring- ton, has lately made some delightful improvements in the rectory. Hard wood floors have been laid in the hall and study, the walls of some of the principal rooms beautifully repspered and the ceilings tinted and the house in every way made more comfortable to its occupantst
 The Ven. Archdeacon George, of Litchfield, and rector of Salisbury, was most sgreeably surprised on inc occa- sion of the fifth anniversary of his mar risge by the iuhux of 8 goodly number of his people into tho rectory. While some kept the good rector and his wife busy in the drawing room, others tuln ed the dining room inside ont, lad some fine new rugs and, spiriting away the srchidiaconal table and chairs, re- placed them with beautiful new set complete. The astonishment and pleas ure of the twain were about equivalent when they were ushered into the reno vated room.
 The Rev R. H. Ges, or, rector of Trinity Church in tho southern part of Salisbury, short time ago received a fine horse and cnriage with all their equipments from a thoughtful vestry- man. The rectory, which year ago was thoroughly renovated within, Is now being adorned with tasteful coat of paint without
 It is deeds of the sort described in this letter that tend to show the really cordial relations that exist between rec tors and their parishes generally. A parish that treats it's rector in the man. ner recommended by the bishop in his last convention address hardly ever fails to reap the benefit in increased power of ministIation: ''It is as you cheer and hesrten 8 man that he does better work, and gives the best that is in him

Little Lucy Jackson.

It was with mingled grief and resigna. tion that this community learned last Monday morning that little Lucy Jack son. daughter of MT and Mrs N. l.. Jackson. had departed this life about 10. 40 o'clock Sunday evening. Seldom does a young life twine its tendrils around so many hearts as did Lucy's brief life of a little more than three years. Lucy was sweet and lovable child who won the affection of all who met her. Perhaps the knowledge of her infirmity, vslvular disease of tie heart, still more endeared her to all who realized that in all probability her life would be brief one. The patience and fortitude with which she had en. dured her sufefings the past few months were pathetic. Several months ago council of physicians gave no hope of ultimate recovery, but only temporary relief, therefore when the end came all felt that it was we'll with the child that she was "at rest"
 The funeral was largely attended at the residence of Mir and Mrs Jackson on Tuesday at P. m. Rev s. A. Burnaby conducted the services. The little cas-. ket was covered with beautiful flowers. and Undertaken Culver's white hearse carried the remains to their last resting place in the lower cemetery followed by number of carriages filled with mourners.

To the average resident of the tenn perate zones an earthquake Is rare and terrible event, creating more con- sternation than any other visitation of nature. In the tropics, however, par ticularly in Central America, it Is won- derful how easily the residents be- come accustomed to these shocks, which do not come, however, wholly without warning.
 You are sitting on piazza on hot afternoon chatting with your friends when suddenly the sky seems to grow hazy and the crows stop cawing. There Is a general rush, and, though you may not know what is the matter, you can not help feeling uneasy.
 The old natives say, Were going to have a little shake," and then the house begins to rock, the tumblers fall off the table, you feel deathly sick at the stomach, and the thing is all over. The sky clears, the crows begin their noisy screams, and things are soon put right again.

To the drones nature has certainly been very bountiful. They are y~ry large and strong, have a helmet made of enormous black pearls, two lofty quivering plumes, doublet of rides cent, yellowish velvet. heroic tuft and fourfold mantle, translucent and rigid.
 While the workers have 12,000 facets to their eyes, the drones are gifted with 26,0OO; while the workers have 5000 olfactory cavities in their antennR, the drones have over 6O.0O0. While the workers are laboring for the benefit of the community the drones sail off every bright morning into space, irresistible, glorious. and tranquilly make for the nearest flowers, where they sleep till the afternoon freshness awakes them.
 Then, with the same majestic pomp and still overf1owing with magnificent schemes, they return to the hive, go straight to the cells, plunge their heads to the neck in the vats of honey and fill themselves tight as a drum to repair their exhausted strength, whereupon, with heavy steps, they go forth to meet the good, dreamless and careless slum- Der that shall fold them In its embrace till the time for the next repast.-Mae- terlinck's life of Bee"

In his recent work on Luzon pr. Rinne of Hanover gives an interesting description of a visit to the gold dig gings in the Candelaria goldfield. In the more elevated portions of the Can delaria district little trouble Is given by water, but the air in the mines Is often too foul to breathe. Ventilation is se- cured by lowering into the shaft bas- ket of burning coals. If there are two connecting shafts, this device creates a good draft down one and up the other.
 Dr. Rinne's own shaft had reached the depth of 60 feet. At the bottom nearly naked workmen were cutting galleries by the light of little torches and sending up baskets of ore and refuse. These were hauled up by means of a wooden capstan worked by two men. This is Filipino gold mining as 1t has been carried on from time i'm memorial
 The gold bearing ore Is then crushed by pounding with stones or on larger scale ground in an arrasta, or mill, driven by a yoke of oxen. It is then washed in shallow wooden pans to get rid of the bulk of the lighter material The product of this first washing Is again washed in cocoanut shells and yields a quantity of gold in dust and small particles.
 A vegetable sap called gogo Is used in this process to precipitate the finer dust. Finally the dust Is packed in small mussel shells and melted over a charcoal fire. This accounts for the peculiar shelllike form in which Fill pino gold appears in the market
