have had a hearing last Saturday
morning CD the charge of incorri-
gibility, failed to appear in the Office
OF the probate Judge when the time for

ing and persuaded the lad to return
with him To this city. The hearing
was held the same day and Yes was
sentenced to the reform school. He
WAS allowed to run At large, but will
be taken to the reform school next
week. This was done because of the
fact that at this time the institu-
tiOn is overcrowded Sheriff Mole

STORY OF A LONDON MYSTERY
Finding of the Corpse of Woman Who
Had Been Missing for Two
Months.

London, Oct. 20.-The disappear.
ance Of woman doctor, Miss Hick-
man, which has been a sensation here
for the last two months, has been part
ly cleared up by the finding Of her
body in an unfrequented part of Rich
mond park. The remains were horri-
bly, decomposed, the head having been
entirely separated from the body, ap-
parently by the gnawing Of rats.
Miss Hickman, who was fully
qualified doctor Of medicine, was per-
forming her duties at the Royal Free
Hospital on the afternoon Of Aug Is,
when she left the hospital. Since that
time the police of the whole country
have unyailingly searched for her. She
was healthy woman, % years Of age,
and took nothing with her except a
few pounds sterling in cash. The
reason for Miss Hickman's disappear.
ance is complete mystery.

STABBED WITH AN INK ERASER
Hotel Clerk the Victim of a Woman Who
Says She Has Matrimonial
Claim on Him.

Chicago, Oct. 2O-May Hayes finish
ed a love affair with George Davis,
assistant day clerk at the Auditorium,
by stabHng him with an ink eraser at
the woman's entrance to the hotel in
Michigan avenue. Davis was told by
a bell boy that a woman wanted to
see him at the entrance. He walked
out and was confronted by an irate
brunette, who began a series of shrill
upbraidings that could be heard 100
yards away. Davis listened for a
while and then he turned to SO back
to his desk.
At this juncture the young woman
produced an ink eraser and made a
lunge at him. The first cut made cash
in Davis arm, the second ripped a
large section from his right leg, and
the third tore a rent in his left cheek.
Miss Hayes was getting warmed up to
her work when she was disarmed by
Detective Repetto, of the hotel secret
service. Miss Hayes said that she had
lived with Davis as his wife for eight
years. There was common law mar
riage, she said, and the man had al
ways spoken of her to his friends and
relatives as his wife. The incident oc-

One of the hardest tn ings to excuse
in any man or woman is their groan-
ing over the fact that they are grow
ing old. Some men never cease to
lament the days when they were in
college and continually dream of the
slime when they we're boys" If a
man has a busy, well-rounded life
he has no excuse for bemoaning the
past. Interest in the youth of others
is a good sign, but for ones self the
main object should be attention
to the present.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1903-10-21

There are many business men
who take little stock if any in ad-
vertising, believing that sit don't pay,
that it is 'a waste of money" The
reason for such thinking is because
these men have not allowed them
selves to come out of the ruts of non
progression, and fall in line with
their brother merchants who have
become prosperous with allowing
the idea of, if you have anything
worth selling, advertise it and dis
play it, have sway. The word adj
vertise has become in the business
world liz and among business men
a twin word for money. Money and
advertise 60 together, one begets
the other. Money creates adyertis-
ing, advertising creates money. So
efficient has display advertising
proven, that in the city of Appleton,
a certain divine has used it for the
furtherance Of the gospel OF Jesus
Christ, and it's use has brought from
all accounts favorable results. Men
never going to church being attracted
by the ad and venturing to cross the
threshold to partake of the goods and
bargains that the minister may lay
claim that Jesus Christ and his re-
ligion offers. Whether the Lord
would approve of such methods in
the furtherance of his gospel remains
a question, yet it has brought some
into the church that had never been
in before and they have come in
contact with the contribution box
which they could not for shame
very we'll refuse, and thus the dis
play ad has caught an extra nickle or
dime. Enough of these makes the
advertisement profitable. So it is
in all businesses you may try to
down advertising but iJ can't be
downcd and the man who adyertises
gets there every time.

NOT A CANDIDATE.

The efforts!put forth by LaFollette
leaders to induce Judge Clementson
to become a candidate for congress
from this district in opposition to j.
w. Babcock have proven futile, and at
a secret session of administration en-
thusiasts, held in city ball rooms one
evening recently, to which Judge
Clementson was summoned without
knowledge as to it's import, he politely
and firmly refused to take any part in
the scheme and stated candidly that
he was not in the least DESTROYS of
the Office.
At the meeting were present D. T.
Parker of Fennimore, L. Fl. Bancroft
of Richland Center and Secy. Tucker
of the State Central committee. The
trio of the governors lieutenants made
all manner of fattering inducements
to the judge to secure his consent to
become a candidate. but to no avail,
the object forjwhich they sought re-
sulting in fat failure.
Judge Clementson is not a candi-
date for congress, nor has he ever
been. Had he desired to be his host
of admiring friends and constituents
would have sent him there years ago.
Nominations for second choice are
now in order in Grant county.
