Sink Shaft of the Chippewa.

West Superior, Sept. 21.-The
work of sinking the shaft at the
Chippewa copper mine in this
county is progressing rather rap
idly and from the first level of
215 feet the shaft is now down to
a depth of about 275 feet. It is
the intention of the company to
go ahead with the sinking until
a depth of 400 feet is reached,
and the probabilities are that the
shaft will be put down to depth
of 600 or 700 feet before the re-
duction plant is put in and rock
is taken out to be put in the mill.
The company has now a stock
pile of over $4,000 tons of fine
rock, containing gold, silver and
copper, that can be put into the
mill. The prospects are that the
Chippewa will be a producer
within a short time. In sinking
The shaft to agreater depth sew
eral veins have been passed
through and the specimens of
rock that are being taken out are

Twelve veins in all have been dis
covered on the property and

now being done are the same as
those that were previously en-
countered in the work.

Visits Dying Brother.

Waupun, Sept. 2O.-Comply-
ing with an order issued by the
governor, the warden of the
prison today permitted Edward
Anderson, a prisoner serving
five years for burglary, to go to
his home in Green Bay for the
purpose of visiting dying
brother. He was in the custody
of a prison guard.
Anderson was convicted in
Milwaukee last October for burg
larry. After being sentenced,
and while waiting in the prison
er's room on the seventh floor of
hecity hall, he made an unsuc-
cessful but sensational attempt
to escape by crawling through
one of the windows of the pris-
oner's room out upon the cornice
of the city hall, and walking
around the building to the
Market street side. Being un-
able to descend to the street, he
was easily persuaded to return to
the room which he had so un-
tremendously left a few minutes
before, and was brought to Wau-
pun the following day. He is
considered a desperate criminal,
and has done time in the Illinois
state penitentiary at Joliet.

Married in Haste.

Ashland, Sept. 21.-For the
first time in years Ashland has
been stirred by an elopement.
On Thursday Miss Sarah Yaffe,
who has often attracted attention
by her personal beauty and who
only a short time ago made her
debut in society, left for Iron
wood on an evening train She
was joined a little ways down the
line by Leon J. Simon, the son of
a wealthy Milwaukeean, and they
rode into Ironwood together.
They were married the same
evening by a minister of that
place and left for Milwaukee
where they will make their future
home.
News of the elopement did not
reach Ashland until the next day
when Miss Yaffe telephoned from
Milwaukee to her folks announc-
ing the marriage and saying that
after months stay in the east
she would return to Ashland and
visit them.
The parents, while very much
shocked over the affair, are max
ing the best of it and will not
deny a blessing. Miss Yaffe is
proficient as pianist and this
year was to have gone to Berlin
to complete her education. Leon
J. Simon came to Ashland about
a year ago and for the past three
months has been Miss Yaffe' s
lover.

Becomes a Farmer.

Whitewater, Sept. 25. VIM.
J. Murphy, the temperance lee
turer, has purchased for himself
a fine country home about two
miles from this place. The
place that he bought is known as
the Cook farm, comprising about
eighty acres. Mr.. Murphy is
spending about $4,000 in MAX
ing for himself and family a
most delightful anchorage.
The house is situated well
back from the street and almost
in the midst of a beautiful grove
of ancient burr oak trees, which
completely, though not too thick
ly, shade the front yard. The
house when remodeled will cost
about So, 900.
Mr.. Murphy is a farmer as
well as a lecturer, and when his
barn and dairy sta bles are finish
ed, he will have something to be
proud of. With his herd of "a
Jerseys, 5 well bred horses, pen
of growing Poland China pigs,
and eighty tons of hay, with oats
running over sixty bushels to
the acre, there is every reason
to believe that farming will be a
success.
Mr.. Murphy separates his
own cream, which he ships, and
feeds his skim milk. Next year
he may specialize bit. But he
does not intend to give uplectur-
ing, and will be seen on the
rostrum and in the gutter as of
old, helping his brother in his
own practical kindly way.

Lad Perishes In Swamp.

Menominee, Sept. 81 The
likeness body of the 6-year-old
son of Andrew Kragness, of this
city, was found in a swamp three
miles from home, where he had
wandered and persisted from ex-
posture, fatigue and fright.
He went into the woods on
Tuesday afternoon with two
older boys, and when night came
he could not be found. A search
ing party numbering over 200
was formed, and the adjacent
country was secured, without
success. Worn out with fatigue,
a new party of over 300 was
formed Wednesday, which re-
newed the search with increased
determination. Wilson creek
was dragged for two miles, and
every farm house within five
miles of the city was visited.
The news spread through the
city, and the excitement in
creased, so when night came a
fresh party of 400 was ready to
resume the search. They were
formed in long lines, and, aided
with lanterns, they paralleled the
woods and swamps, walking
about eight feet apart, and re-
sembling an army Of soldiers.
On Thursday the search was con-
tinued, and the lifeless body of
the little fellow was found. His
tear stained face and bruised
body showed signs of great suf-
fering from fright and pain.

Gates County Having a Boom.


Milwaukee Sentinel. 80
That the legislature of Wis

designed to name a county after
James L. Gates of this city last
spring has been clearly shown
by that gentleman, who immedi-

land there and proceeded to
hasten people there to settle it.
Mr.. Gates returned to Milwau-
kee last night after a trip through
the southern counties of Illinois
and Iowa, where he secured a lot
of recruits, and he reported that
there are now being sent to the
newly opened territory settlers
at the rate of forty week.
