Death of Sam Babb.

Mrs. Samuel Babb received a
message from M. S. WEIGH, What
come, Wash, last Saturday, stating
that her husband had undergone an
operation and was dangerously sick.
Mrs. Babb made immediate prepare
tions for the long journey and left
Sunday morning for that city.
Tuesday evening at FIVE o'clock
George Babb received a telegram
stating that his father was dying
and yesterday he received another
announcing his fathers death. Mrs.
Babb did not reach Whatcome in
time to see her husband alive. The
news of Mr.. Babb's death was re-
ceived with profound sorrow by his
many friends and neighbors in this
city.
Mr. and Mrs. Babb made a trip to
the coast in February and Mr.. Babb
was favorably impressed with the
country and concluded that he would
remain for an indefinite time and
cruise in the woods. He and NJ. S..
Welch, formerly of this city, were to-
gether a good part of the time.
On June 18th he was taken sick
and the physicians found it neces-
sary to remove a tumor from his
side. His advanced age rather told
against him and it soon became evil
dent that he could not survive the
operation.
Mr.. Babb has been a resident of
Iron River since 1890 and during
much of that time was engaged in
the livery business. His congenial
ways and uprightness in all his
dealings made everyone his friend.
Iron River Pioneer.
Mr.. Babb was buried at Iron
River Tuesday.

Northern Wisconsin,

Phillips Beetle low prices at
which land can be had and the easy
terms on which it can be purchased
are attracting the attention of many
men of small means to northern
Wisconsin. But there are some
other advantages not always under
stood. There are very few tracts on
which one will not find timber
enough to support the family while
opening the farm, furnish lumber for
fences and buildings, pay for the
land and furnish fire wood for an in
definite length of time. This seems
rather large but it is as true as Cos
pei A mar may come who, after
paying freight has not dollar to
begin life with. He can go>to his
wild land, cut cord of wood, peel a
cord of bark or cut few logs, ac-
cording to the season of the year,
haul to town aud sell. His income
begins right there. We have known
many who have had no money on
hand to start with, but, supported
the family, opened up the farm and
stocked it without opening up an
account anywhere. Every days
work in cutting off trees in clearing
the land can be converted into cash
by selling the logs and bark. Crops
in northern Wisconsin are sure to
give fair yield every year and as a
rule the crops are heavy. While the
grass is prolific everywhere, rye,
oats, peas, barley and wheat very
rarely fail, potatoes are always
good and often very heavy crop

THE ENGLISH PRIMROSE.
No Other Flower Holds an Equal
Place In Britons' Affections.

No flower holds the same place in
the affections of the people of the
British isles as does the common
primrose, Primula vulgaris. 1t is
SO closely associated with the coun-
try life that it would be hard to
find a person who does not know
what it is. One Of the first flowers
to open in spring, it is largely used
to decorate the churches at Easter.
Rather different from the Eng
lish sparrow and some other Ssinsti-
tutions," it does not make itself
entirely at home in America, but
as a garden plant it is well worthy
Of little attention.
The greatest drawbacks to its
welfare in this climate are the hot
summers and severe winters, the
former being the worst. But if
planted where it can get little
shade and moisture in summer and
a slight protection of leaves or 9TH
er material in winter it will we'll re-
pay for the extra care. 1t is hard
" necessary to speak Of the color. as
it has given it's name to that shade
Of pale yellow; but there are many
garden hybrids Of different colors,
ranging through all the shades OF
hlue and n11rnla that arc very nrnt-
ty and sweetly scented. The cow
slip, Primula veris and Primula Of
fcinalis, names it is variously known
under, is very much like the prim-
rose in habit and general appear
ance. but the individual flowers are
deeper yellow and smaller, with sew
eral borne on one stem, forming an
umbel, while the blue primrose has
only one flower on a stem. Nee

is there any region where horses,
cattle, sheep, hogs or goats will do
better than in northern Wisconsin.
Water is abundant and good. Soil
is prolific and durable. Roads are
being constantly built in every dir

to their maintenance. Land here
is good investment in itself, con-
sidered because of it's constant in
crease in value. Now is the time
for the man who wants a good home
at low cost.

Without wishing to harp unneces-
sarily one cannot help wondering at
the amazing foolishness of the man
who thinks he can be for Spooner
and LaFollette in the impending
fight. Everything the two men re-
present is entirely different, and in
addition to that fact, the governor
hates the senator with the intense
ness of Sioux Indian. Besides the
above facts, there remains the adj
ditional one that Gov. LaFollette is
under financial and other obligations
to Isaac Stephenson, whose main
object in life is to defeat Spooner,
and pay off old grudges..q Taking all
these points into consideration, the
man who tries to support the senat-
or and the governor has picked a
harder job than he would have try
ing to serve God and Mammon stimuli
taneously. Plymouth Reporter.

James Frear, of Hudson, and in

call him bad names without being
chastised.

standing by one of their citizens
when there is a good chance to
advance his interests, and the
interests of the city. Mr.. Clau-

dorsement, and he will go out OF

Mr.. Strong is a LaFollette man, and
in addition to that secured the stall
wart, endorsement and support on
account of his loyalty to Senator
John G. Spooner for whom he stands
pledged. Ashland and Iron counties
have certainly made an excellent
selection in naming Mr.. Strong, and
he will undoubtedly be credit to
his district. In addition to naming
the nominee for assembly Ashland
county has also nominated it's repub-

Poisoned to Save Expenses.

A Chinese boy was brought into the
Picking hospital terribly injured by a
heavy log falling upon him. The doc
tors, to save his life, cut off his leg.
The mother came, apparently to help
to nurse the lad. The patient, howev-
er, almost Immediately afterward died,
and expert examination showed that
his mother had given him arsenic. Her
reason, it is supposed, was to prevent
her son from the disgrace of reaching
the next world in MANNED condition.
This is a very strong point with the
Chinese, who always pickle an ampu-
tated member to have it buried with
them when they eventually die. In
this instance, the family being poor
and a whole leg being difficult to pickle,
the simpler course was taken sf poi
soning the boy, SO that he and his leg
might 60 together.
