1t was very seldom that the head

had defed the department for many
months. It would not look well in

Just as the train started and I was in

with criminals in those nasty compart-
ment trains flashed into my head. I ex-
pected nothing better han to be .stran-

brigand-for I felt sure that he must be
one-to spare my life. He only laughed
a horrible, brutal laugh-and jabbered
something in Italian, Of which I did not
understand q word.
When he threw off his coat n waist

was almost ready dump out Of the why

ANOTHER BIG TRANSFER.
o. H Helgeson DispOses Of His Packing Of Tobacco

G. T. Tallord of Edgerton, was in the

packing of tobacco put up by o. FL. Hell.
geson, consisting of six hundred cases.
l. is an extra lotof goods
An immense amount of tobacco was
delivered in this city the past week
under the most unfavorable conditions
that could possibly exist. Never were
such roads experienced. We are told
that broken vehicles are strewn along
the country thoroughfare SO trying.
have the heavy roads been. Four ard
six horse teams have been required to
transport load that one animal might
ordinarily draw. Besides local deliver
cries large shipments of bundle goods
have been made to outside packing
points and this has continued actively
this week. The delivery fcr t1is season
must be very near an end in Vernon
county.
The Edgerton Tobacco Reporter says
in its last issue THE flood of CORES
pondence that has reached this Office the
past few weeks relating to the growing
of tobacco in new sections of thu state
leads to the conclusion that there will
be very material increase of acreage
the coming season Fad much of it too
in territory that bis not heretofore gone
through the experimental stages of rails
ing tobacco. The infection to become
tobacco growers is spreading like the
grip and along Lake Superior will be
the northern limit, unless its course is
soon run. Nothing save an early frost
or poor crop will stay the expansion of
the tobacco growing sections of the
state. The history of 1885 seems likely
to repeat itself That year TOBACCO was
grown in more new sections than ever
before but single poor crop and bad
handling by inexperienced growers put
an end to the expansion, returning the
area to its normal location in few
counties in the southern portion of the
state from which it has generally ex-
tended"
