AN OLD COMRADE SURPRISED.

Last evening the regular meeting OF
G. A. r. Post was held in its headquar.
tiers at the court house. After business
had been disposed of, comrade j. Nj.
James arose and made statement to
the effect that comrade j. A. Jones,
who was present, had on that day
arrived at the good old age of three
score and ten; that be had wandered
away from home, and the speaker
thought that it would be humane act
for the Post to appoint an escort to see
that he was returned safely. Accord
ingly, comrades r IL. johnson and
Henry Pradt were appointed and they
started out with Mr.. Jones, and all
members of the Post present, followed.
1t proved a genuine surprise party, Tor
at the home of Mr.. Jones were found
the wives of the members who had
taken possession aud had come loaded
down with good things to eat. During
the day, the James Music Co. had
struggled an organ into the home, and
with Mrs. Briggs presiding, old army
songs were sung, and MIR j NJ. James
favored those present with several
selections which proved that he was in
earlier days vocalist of more than
ordinary ability, and that he still pos
sessed an unusually fine voice f0r one
of his age. Mr.. James also rendered
several instrumental pieces to the great
delight of all. Supper was served
about $50 O'Clock Mesdames r H.
johnson, James MeCrossen, j. P.
Briggs, A. V. Gearhart and l..
Craven served the old veterans. NJ. II.
Barnum was present and made an after
dinner speech. which demonstrated,
that though he had been living up
among the pines for the past i've years,
he was still the ''old man eloquent"
There were about thirty ladies and
gentlemen present. and the evening
was greatly enjoyed By all AT 1880
the guests departed for their homes
wishing that eomrade Jones might live
TO enjoy many more such happy birth
days. and If indications go for any
thiag. Mr.. Jones certainly has just
reached middle age, therefore has yet a
long life before him.

LAFoLLETTE 8 clearly the leader of
the republican party of Wisconsin, and
what he says is law; this is proving to
be the case as he is gradually overeom-
ing the opposition on the primary elec-
ton and railroad bills. The Staiwarts
have no such leader as LaFollette He
has gathered about him the shrewdest
wire pullers in the republican party and
therefore it has been an easy matter for
him to secure the nominations for gov
ernor in 1900 and 1902. True, Spooger
and Quarels are smart enough in way
but neither care to devote their time
and energies to building mp machine
so it is self-evident that Gov LaFollette
is the man of the hour in republican
state politics, and he will continue to
be so until some one rises up that has
the ability to lido him up" at his own
peculiar methods in political warfare.

Senator Kreutzer, who left Madison
for the South one week ago last Thurs
day, may be hack in Madison before
the emf of this week, although it was
his intention when he went away to be
gone two weeks The compromise ele-
ment In the senate which is trying to
arrange upon compromise primary
election bill, is very anxious that Mr..
Kreutzer shall come back, and the fact
that leading legislators are urging his
presence here may bring him back to
Madison. Although there has been
much compromise bin talk since MIR.
Kreutzer went away, there has been no
real work on a compromise primary
election bill during his absence, and
the legislative bin which he drew be-
fore he left Madison has been the basis
of all the compromise discussion so far
held in the senate. There is a good
deal of belelf now that the legislative
bill which Kreutzer urges will be the
primary election bill which will be
finally passed by the senate. If it is,
now it can be safely sand that either
the Merton or the original assembly
bill, whichever the La Toilette people
want, will be the bin paSSed.-Milwau-

THE great sensation in the East is the
murder of E. l.. Burdick, at Buffalo, n
Y. The deed was committed on the
night of Feb. 9th and up to date the
mystery has not been cleared up. A
shocking state of indiscretions or loose
morals among some of the society set
of that city has been uncovered and
the only wonder is that more killings
have not resulted.
