 Capt D. B. West has finished planting 45 acres of apple trees on his farm north of town and will in the immediate future set as many more. Col. J. P. Fancher has completed arrangements to plant 30 acres in addition to the 20 acres he already has on his Yoeum creek farm north of Ber- ryville, giving him total of 40 acres of apple orchards. These gentlemen are going to be in on the ground floor of the prosper ity that will come with the advent I of commercial orcharding. There are millions in it and the farmer who doesn't get his share will have only himself to blame.

WEST SIDE MASQUERADE.

The largest crowd ever assembled at
Kroening's hill was in evidence last
evening at the masquerade ball given
for the benefit of the agricultural and
training school. The hall began to fill
up at very early hour and by nine
o'clock every available inch of floor
space was taken. While the number of
maskers was large the spectators en-
circled the hall, some standing on chairs
and the stage that they might get a
better view.
1t is estimated that there were con-
siderably over hundred maskers on
the floor at one time, and these repre-
scented every character conceivable.
At 1890 prizes were awarded, list OF
which we cannot give for lack of space.
Dave Kirkwood, Claude Semmes and
Frank Ritter were appointed judges
and these had no easy job on their
hands The prizes were so near of the
same value and so many, that it was a
perplexing question as to how to award
them satisfactorily, but this they did
with very good success. So many
prizes were there that nearly half the
maskers got something which pleased
them.
Sheriff Marquardt did himself proud
in the character of Dom Paul. VIM
Kregel, county clerk, secured the prize
pig, offered by John Baer, while the
ten-pound bologna sausage went to
VIM Sweeney.
After the awarding of the prizes half
of the crowd went to Geier's nall,
where Geo Geier's orchestra discoursed
dance music,t and with those who
danced to Cones music at Kroening's
it was a merry crowd. There was no
disturbance of any kind and everything
passed off smoothly. A considerable
amount of money was realized by the
enterprise and the committee desires to
thank all who contributed in prizes or
services to the movement.

Another War ENDED. Next.

Once more, according to the British
newspaper, the Boer war is ended A
skirmish has taken place in which it is
reported by Butcher Kitchener, that the
Beers meet with che stupendons loss
of eleven killed and wounded and
twenty seven captured, while the British
recapturcd two pieces of artillery they
had previously lost, and in addition
took one Boer pompom that was the
last gun De Wet had" An interest
ing question arises here. What have
the Beers done with all their artillery
that they had three years ago, and all
that they bave since captured from the
British. We do not recall reading
account OF the capture by the British
of artillery from the. Beers. Yet the
capture of one pompom leaves De Wet
without artillery Too bad isn't it?
Wonderful result of arithmetic if
true isn'tis? Figures will lie after all
wont they, when the intermittent period
arrives for anothe1 newspaper ending
of the Boer war The same paper told
us little while ago that there were still
fifteen thousand armed Beers in the
field Now this force is annihilated in
skirmish wherein they lost in killed,
wounded and prisoners thirty-eight men.
Our loss is slight says Butcher Kitch-
ener in defeat, but probably when the
British troops get within range of Boer
rifles ard escape with the loss of few
hundred tits considered slight "Slightr'
Yes it seems sutpiciousIy indefinite.
But we have noticed that Kitchener
frequently reports his losses as slight. y

Neal Brown Has the Only Regu
Iarly Launched Gubernatoual
Boom By Democrats
(From the Neenah Times }

Mr. e. E. Vandercook, who has OBJ
tanned state reputation for his vigor-
Gus and truthful articles to the Milwau-
kee Sentinel especially on state poll
tics of different parties, talks of the
candidacy of Hon. Neal Brown for the.
gubernatorial chair of Wisconsin
After reviewing the chances of the
candidates named in this connection
by the Democrats, such as Mayor Rose
of Milwaukee, b. w. Jones of Madison,
ID. l.. PIummer of Wausau, Judge Gil
son and others, MIR Vandercook says:
One good, old Democratic paper, the
Neenah Times, comes to the front with
the suggestion that Neal Brown of
Wausau is the proper person to unite
the party This can be said to be the
only regularly launched Democratic
gubernatorial boom, as it has been rein
forced by other newspaper support
The Chiffon Times, unterrified in its
Democracy and untiagging and advo-
cacy OF Bryan, appears to be content
with the suggestion of Browns candi-
dacy, and the same is true of several
other Democratic papers. There is
something individualistic about Browns
Democracy which might require some
little readJustment OF the party belief
to show adaptability - veal view of
things. On the matter OF free trade
here is strict conformity, but Brown
is a non-conformist when it comes 10
expansion, imperialism and the gold
dollar. He believes things himself, and
it does not make much difference what
his party advocates. 1t would have to
come TO his way of thinking if it
wanted him to serve as candidate
This conflict, however, could probably
be avoided by adopting a platform
dealing only with the subject upon
which Brown and the party were in
sympathy and accord.
Itcould be made strong on tariff and
state affairs aud Brown is versatile
and emphatic enough to fill in the in
terstices. He lisa vigorous campaigner,
positive and forceful in argument, and
if he could be induced TO devote his
energies to his candidacy, would no
doubt be as strong as any candidate
the Democrats could select,

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

The Training School studies open up
new fields of labor with their newly
appointed practice classes this week.
We were honored by several calls
last week from home people and those
visiting in our. city. Among others,
Miss Morrison. daughter of Prof Nor
rison of the county training school at
Menominee, and County Supt. Lamont.
We would be pleased if, in the near flu
ture, others would follow the example
of those who have already called.
Blue is, to quite an extent, favorite
color with the Training School students
now that the returns of examinations
arc reaching US.
About 80 of the Normal students en-
joyed sleighride to Kelly Temperance
hall last Thursday evening. Games,
music and dancing were the order of
the evening At a seasonable hour re-
freshments were served, after which
the party Immediately dispersed. All
report delightful time aud hope for
another similar entertainment at a
later date.
Friday morning many of the students
were quite hoarse as a result of indulg-
ing in the following school yell:
Biz, bum, 0a; biz, bum, ba
Norrlals, Normals, ra-ra-ra
Are we in it? Well | guess.
Normals, Normals. yes, yes, yes.
The Training School is the proud
possessor of fine new hanging globe
Is inches III diameter When in use it
can be pulled down to the level of the
eye and W zen not needed can be pushed
up to the ceiling. Many things can be
exemplified by means of it, that cannot
be shown by small globes in common
use. Though all agree that it is the
best globe manufactured, one of the
debates of the Literary society has
proved that it can be improved.
At the regular meeting of the Train
ing School Literary society the follow
ing officers were elected:
President-Hattle Staege.
Pres.-Ethel Bucklin.
Secretary-Emil Erdman.
Critic-Esther Paff
Marshal-Emery Pearson.
On account of the changing of gym
1asium classes the Training School has
been deprived of the exercises for the
past two weeks.

THE Milwaukee Free Press made a
startling announcement on Monday
morning II proves by affidavits that
the stalwarts had given H. E. Roethe,
of the Fennemore Times, $500 for the
use of his paper; 5000 to George W.
Goldsmith, of the Boscobel Sentinel;
they made an offer to Rufus ID. Quick,
of the Montfort Mail. 1t seems that
Dan Starkey and Ed. Coe are making a
tour securing papers to take up the
fight against Lai,Follette. This mode
of warfare is bound to react. The rank
and file of the American people desire
fair play, and all the money that can be
piled up will be as naught in the bal
ance. Will the stalwarts win ? They
are writing their fate upon the wall as
fast as they can when they commence
to purchase their way into the state
capitol.
