FARMING LANDS BOUGHT. Thanksgiving Will Be Hearty

A drive through the country in any
direction easily convinces one that
northern Wisconsin has been a richly
blessed section this season. While the
greater part of the United States has
suffered from drought that has stunted
or entirely ruined crops, there is not a
failure in anything here, but much bet
ter than usual Grain is nearly all in
stacks and thrpshers are beginning
their work, reporting a good yield Of
grain. Second crops of clover were
never better than now. Corn is in
splendid condition, and though little
can be told yet of the potato crop, the
indications are that the yield will be
fair The shortage of crops in other
places will make high prices for all
produce, so what is misfortune to
others will be blessing to our farm
ers. This ought to be a season of
thanksgiving and good cheer, of debt
paying and improvements in northern
Wisconsin. Amherst Advocate.

During the past week there has been
number of men in town buying up
farming lands. A party of four gen
tlemen from Milwaukee have pur-
chased section apiece and it is their
intention to locate settlers on the land
before winter sets in. Another party
of four gentlemen from Waterloo. Ia,
who are a part of syndicate which
buys land and locate settlers were here
last week looking over our farming
lands and were so impressed with the
quality of it that they purchased about
1900 acres, just west of town bordering
on the Wisconsin river and Rice creek.
They will begin at once to bring in set
tiers and they expect before winter to
have the whole tract taken up.
The gentlemen say that the people
in Illinois and Iowa are crazy to get
up in this section OF the state, and well
they might be Where is there more
favorable opportunity for poor man
than this section of the country, to
make farm, where the cost OF lana IS
SO little and where he can begin at
once to get returns from his purchase.
He is always certain of a full crop.
He does not need to worry about
drouths-they are unknown here
which are so common in the states of
Illinois and Iowa and states further
south. The Wisconsin Valley presents
an opportunity which cannot be found
in any other state in the union. 1t will
be onl matter of a few years before
all this choice land is under cultiva-
ton and then those of you who have
had the opportunity to purchase good
farm cheap, will be sorry that you did
take a good thing when you had
chance.

SKELETON OF MAN FOUND
Body Of an unknown Man
found near RuTnne1es by
am INDIAN only clue to
Identity is handkerchief
Bearing initials G. e x

Friday night of last week word was
brought to this place of the finding of
the remains of man, by an Indian
who was picking berries, near Rum
meles. Coroner Oberholtzer was mott
fed and he summoned jury and went
to Rummeles Saturday morning and
held an inquest. The inquest was ad-
iourned to the Town Hall in this city
where more thorough examination
of the remains was held. The belief is
that the man was tourist and was
murdered for his money.
The remains was found about one
half mile south of Rummeles, about
eight rods from the railroad track be-
hind log. A pack sack was pulled
over his head and tied and around his
neck was a strap wound around twice.
The strap was drawn tightly, not being
three inches in diameter and clutched
in the strap was remains of his gloved
left hand, which showed that he was
proably strangled. The scalp was we'll
preserved and showed several marks
or cuts made by some blunt instrument
in the hands of some unknown person,
which probably rendered him uncon-
scious after which the pack sack and
strap was placed about his head and
neck and taken to the place where he
was found. In his mouth was found a
glove taken from h S right hand which
was used as gag. The flesh had all
decayed away leaving nothing but the
skeleton of the man, which must have
laid where found, more than a year.
All circumstances goes to show that
the deed was well planned and executed
and is mystery which will probably

never be cleared up. The murder, if
it is murder, and indications point
that way pretty strongly, is one of the
most cruel and cold blooded murders
on record and the authorities are try
ing all means available to untangle the
mystery.
The man was quite we'll dressed iudg
ing from the clothes he wore and the
description of the man as given by DR..
Neville before the inquest is about as
follows: A white man, 80 to 45 years
of age, feet or inches in height,
fine short black straight hair slightly
bald in front, wore gray checked coat
and vest, pants not found, hat or cap
not found, q blue flannel over-shiIt, a
suit of white light WOODEN underwear,
light gray wooden hose with white tips,
a pair of tan shoes size 6 and wore a
pair of light WOODEN gloves. The only
thing ON his person that furnishes any
clue to his identity is a one bladed
pocket knife and fine linen handker-
chief with the initials G. E. K en-
broidered in silk in one corner.
Coroner Oberholtzer has continued
the inquest until August 20, at the
Town Hall, in the hopes of finding fur
Their evidence that will lead to the iden-
ity of the man. Such information will
be cheerfully received by the Coroner,
