DEATH OF A NOBLE WOMAN,
MRS. GEORGE B. BRAZEAU.

Mrs. George B. Brazeau died at her
home in Port Edwards, Wis, July "a,
1903. The funeral services were held
at the M. E. church in this city
Sunday afternoon at 2:30 p. M.
Mrs. Brazeau went through an oper-
alton for. appendicitis the 10th, and,
while it Was success, complications
arose which could not be guarded
against, and finally heart failure came
to her relief.
Miss Carrie A. Perry was born in
TOmah. Monroe county, Wisconsin
May 5, 1870. Her early life was spent
in Tomah and Sparta, graduating
from the Tomah high school with the
class of 1890. She taught school in
Auburndale, and later several years
in the Tomah schools.
At Auburndale she formed an
acquaintance with George B. Brazeau
which resulted in their marriage,
June 10, 1895. They commenced their
home life ia this city later; moving to
Port Edwards where they have since
lived. Two children were born to
them, one son, Edward, who died in
infancy and daughter, Marion, ten
months old, who services her mother.
The deceased was dressed in spotless
| white, the caSket was beauti-
fully trimmed with smilax and pansies,
her favorite flower. About the
casket, at her home, such profusion OF
flowers was seldom seen, some coming
from friends in Tomah, one of whom
was Mrs. w. S. Johnson, graduate
of her class.
The arrangement of flowers at heT
home was done by the loving hands
Of relatives and intimate friends. The
church and grave were beautifully
trimmed by the M. w. X, Club of which
she was devoted member.
Her pastor, Mr.. Peterson, in few
| but choice words spoke in highest
terms of his acquaintance with M rs.
BraZeau. The interment in Forest
Hill cemetery was very impressive.
| The grave was lined with palisies and
/ SlnilaX and ferns aud flowers were
Everywhere. Not Earring sound,
not a word, only the ritual burial
service Of the church, she loved.
| Tile friends from abroad present
were, Mr.. and Mrs. J. e. Brodw well and
daughter of Sparta, Wis, Miss Bessie
Smith, Of Tomdh, Mr.. and Mrs. w. S.
Johnson, OF Tomah, Wis, Mrs. Geo.
Zenier, of Asotin, Wash, MIR. and
| Mrs. j. e. Perry and Miss Ella Perry,
Tomah, Wis. Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Perry Bedwell, Iowa.
One brother, T. e. Perry. was detain-
ed by the serious illness Of his wife.
The pail bearers were: Thomas
Mullen, DR.. D. A. Teller, Arthur
| Miller, OF Grand Rapids, o. W. Dodge
and Clarence JasperSon, of Por
Edwards, and w. S. Johnson, OF
Tomah, Wis.
Little Marion will make her home
with her aunt, Mrs. III. II. Voss.
Mr.. Brazeau and family have the
sympathy of their many friends in
Grand Rapids, Tomah, and Port
Ed wards.

BulIdinu Tie-Up Ended.

Pittsburg, Aug. 10.-Committees OF
the Builders Exchange league and the
Building Trades council agreed to
peace terms which will bring to an end
the strike and lockout of the building
trades of Allegheny county. The
agreement reached is that all of the
men who went out on a sympathetic
strike against A. & S. Wilson company
because that concern declined to sign
a wage scale for the hosting engi-
neers before it was submitted to the
Builders League, return to work on
the same conditions that existed before
the strike began. All differences will
then be settled.

DECLARED INSANE.
Former Wellknown Newspaper Man,
Who Wrote Love Letters to Miss
Helen Gould.

New York, Aug. 9.-After writing
letters for some time to Miss Helen
Gould, in which he declared his love,
George A. Madden was sent to the
Long Island state hospital for the in
sane by Judge Asphalt, in the county
court, Brooklyn.
Among the papers found in the pos
session of Madden, whose hallucina-
ton seems to be that he is about to be
married to Miss Gould, and that she
is deeply in love with him, was an ar
ticle prepared for publication, giving
an account CT his and Miss Gould's
marriage. in which he says: AS is
well known in her circle of a%cquaint-
ances, Miss Gould has believed that
she would some day meet her ideal,
she having frequently stated so to
many, but no one imagined or suspect
ed that Mr.. Madden was the fortunate
holder of the key which unlocked the
gem Of the pure heart Of the bride.
"The fact is that neither Miss Gould
nor Mr.. Madden have ever seer each
other in their true light until the aft
ernoon preceding the ceremony. The
couple will sail for Europe in a day
or two"

SOME of the Democratic papers, whose
editors are supposedly men of character
and common deceney, persist in associat-
ing the name of Congressman J.. c. Sib-
ley with some OF the government jobs,
knowing that not a single direct charge
has been made against him, and utterly
ignoring the fact that he has publicly an
nounced that he courts Investigation. 1t
is mighty small business, and serves but
to demonstrate that they are pee-wee par
tisans, straining for something to con-
denim in a prominent Republican. The
attempt to thus discredit Mr.. Sibley can
hardly prove otherwise than aborative.

PRECEDENT requires that each newly
elected Pope select a name by which he
shall be known in association with his
holy office. In selecting a name, that OF
some predecessor whose character and
career are deemed worthy of emulation
is chosen. 1t may be selected with ref
erence to any predecessor OF the name.
PiuX Y may therefore be supposed to
cherish the example not necessarily OF
Plus IN, but of some one OF the preced-
ing nine who nave assumed the name of
Plus. The first Plus was a martyr and
is enrolled among the saints; the second
was a great scholar the third was Pope
for only three weeks; the fourth was the
founder OF the Vatican press; the fnh
was 4 man of great piety and energy, and
is now %canonized; the sixth was de-
the seventh crowned Bonaparte as En-
peror, communicated him and made
the Concordat with him; the eighth had
a brief and insignificant reign; the ninth
began as a liberal and ended as a con-
sentative, promulgated the doctrine Of
Inability, lost his temporal power and
made himself the first ''prisoner of the
Vatican" Among these is ample range
OF precedent, both suspicious aud omi-
nous. 1t will be earnestly desired and
may we'll be expected that one of the best
o. these will be emulated by Plus y.

The National editorial association as
sembled at Omaha had it's fling at the
Salus-G rady- Pennypacker addition to
the libel law of Pennsylvanis. 1t was de-
nounced as an infamous enactment in
tended to murder the liberty of the press.
The fact that the law has fallen dead for
lack ofany prosecutor so mean spirited
as to ask for its protection or any lawyer
willing to plead for its enforcement does
not abate the indignation. Its repeal at
the hands ofthe Legislature, if it shall es-
cape earlier death at the hands of the
courts, is demanded.

The discovery of oil in the Cherokee
country, Indian Territory, lends inter-
est to the description of the character OF
the people who possess the lands TO- be-
ing so extensively sought after by leases.
The Kansas City Journal says; The Cher
oKees excel all other Indians in liter
AZURE, agriculture and mechanical pur-
suits and to varily this fact 1t is only nee
essary Tor n to travel through tLe In.
dian Territory and visit that portion oc-
cuLied by the five tribes. The Cherokee
Nation lies north of the Creek and Choc.
taw Nations with Arkansas and Missouri
on the east. Kansas on the north and
the Usage Nation on the west, between
the 35th and 37th degrees of latitude, be-
ing thus situated in the latitude where
the summer neat never approaches the
torid zone, while the winters, on an aver
age, are temperate. The climate is calcu-
lated to develops not only healthy, but
vigorous, active types of woman and
manhood and that such is the case one can
readily see from the physical appearance
of the inhabitants and especially those
who have lived there a majority of their
years. They are a people having a great
love, not only for their own section OF the
country, but for the United States at
large, and are intensity patriotic. They
have high appreciation of the advantages
of education and expend large sums OF
money for the support and maintenance
OF their schools. The majority of them
are DEVOTED Christians, belonging to the
Methodist, Baptist Presbyterian and
Catholic church.
