"A fine new job press, one of the
largest and best manufactured, has
been installed in the Herald job
rooms to facilitate the execution of
the extensive and ever increasing
business in that department. The
new machine will print anything
from the size Of a postage stamp to
a sale hill and is of modern design
and equipment. 1t is the second
new one to be installed since the
paper passed into the hands of the
present management, and is to take
the place of press purchased under
the administration of former Editor
Minor. From the load of work
awaiting it, the chances are it will
be well tested during the ensuing
month.

On account of so much routine

do not know how much they are
missing. A complete program for
the next regular meeting is now
being prepared by the committee
and will be published in the next
issue of this paper. Woodmen,
keep y our eyes on the Herald and
attend meetings.

OLD SETTLER DIES
George Wallace Passes Away--Lived
Here Thirty Years.

George Wallace, ST., an old and
well-known resident of Lancaster,
died Friday morning, after an i'll
ness of but three days, of pneu-
monia, during which time he was
unconscious nearly all the time.
George Wallace was born in Ohio
August 10, 1889, and came with his
parents to Wisconsin about 1854,
when but lad of Is. They came
by steamboat down the Ohio and
up the Mississippi rivers. They
settled on Buckwheat Ridge, where
the parents lived until they died a
few years ago, and where George
grew to manhood.
He married Miss Prueta HARDWOOD
in 1866. They came to Lane aste1
about 1878. Five children resulted
from this union -four boys ard one
girl They are George, William,
Charles, Ida and Harley, two OF
whom, George and Will, are mar
ried. These children, with the wife
survive.
Funeral services will be held Sun
day at the home.

Mr.. and Miss Dancer were reputed
the most notorious misers in the eight
zenith century. The manner in which
this couple were found after death to
have disposed of their wealth was even
more strange than could have been
their method of acquiring it. The total
value was 100000, which was thus dis
posed of: Two thousand five hundred
pounds was found under a dunghill,
$500 in an old coat nailed to the man
ger in the stable, 5000 in notes was
hidden away in an old teapot, the
chimney yielded $4,000 slowed in nine
teen different crevices, and several
jugs filled with coin were secreted in
the stable loft.

Applied Science.

When James Russell Lowell was
minister to England, he was guest al
banquet at which one of the speak
ers was Sir Frederick Bramwell. Sir
Frederick was to respond to the toast
applied Science" It was long after
midnight when the toast was pro.
posed, and several speakers were still
to be called. Rising in his place, the
scientist said:
''At this hour Of the night, or, rather
of the morning, my only interest in ap-
piled science is to apply the tip of the
match to the side of the box upon
which alone it ignites and to apply the
fame so obtained to the wick Of bed
room CANDLE"
A moment later Lowell tossed a pa
per across the table to him bearing
these two lines:
Oh brief Sir Frederick, would that all
could catch
Your happy talent and supply your match!

FAMOUS FOR FAT.
Daniel Lambert, Who Died In 1909,
Got Too Obese to Wabble.

The fame of Daniel Lambert as
If not in the world, still remains un-
rivaled. Daniel was born at Leicester
in ITO and died in 1909 at Stamford.
The grandson of a celebrated cock
fighter and addicted to sport through
out his life, his dimensions were not
extraordinary, and his habits were not
different from those of other lads I'M
til he was fourteen years old. When
twenty-three years of age, however, he
turned the scale at thirty-two stone,
and, although he is recorded to have
been then able to walk from Woolwich
tc London, at the time of his death, in
his fortieth year, he had attained the
prodigious weight Of fifty-two stone, or
72S pounds, and was more or less help
less. He was modest man, and when
he had achieved physical greatness
fame was thrust upon him. He was
for long time unwilling to be made
a show Of, but he gained more than
local reputation, and people Travelled
from far to see him, resorting to vari-
GUS devices in order to be allowed to
do so. At length the prospect Of profit
overcame his resolution, and for four
years before his death he exhibited
himself in London and in the prov
inces
He was apparently man of some
wit, for once, before he permitted the
public to gaze upon him, an inquisitive
person had gained access to his pres
ence by pretending to be a fellow
sportsman interested in the pedigree of
a mare, whereupOn Lambert promptly
replied, "She was bred by Impertinence
out of Curiosity" Before the days of
Maiden was well known fat man, al
though his name no longer fingers as
household word. He died in 1850 at
the age of thirty years, weighing forty
two stone and seven pounds, and is
stated to have been an active man till
year or two before his death, when
his corpulency so overpowered his
strength that his life was burden and
his death deliverance. Both Bright
and Lambert seem to have been genial,
good humored fellows and very popular
among those who visited them. In
deed popularity seems to be the lot of
the corpulent in fact as we'll as in fic-
ton. The heroes Of fiction, however,
have the advantage in the matter of
lasting glory, and the names of Daniel
Lambert and the fat how of Peck ha m
sink into insignifcance beside those of
Falstaf and the fat boy in "Pickwick."

1t is very difficult for an Ordin-

out of the United States senate be-
cause President Smith has five

fact that Senator Smoot has only
one wife and never had any more
ought to have some bearing on the
question.

Obituary Markert.

Francis A. Markert was born in
Burk county, Penn.
Came to Wisconsin in 1870 and
lived with his parents near Lancas-
ter until the year 1882, when he
became resident of this city and
here died Feb. Is, 1904. He was
married to Miss Alice Tenant Nov.
10, 1884. The wife died Apr. 20,
1903.
Frank Markert was one of the
members Of the Lancaster contin-
gent composing the Klondike ex-
petition in 1898.
His sickness extended over num-
Der of months and was exceedingly
painful. Death was welcome re-
lease to the sufferer, but the occur
renee orphaned four children
Mertie, Clarence, Hazel and Roy,
who command the sympathy of the
entire community. Two brothers
and three sisters also survive-J
seph, George and Mrs. Teresa Sny-
der of Pennsylvania; Mrs. Frank
Buhser, Rockville; Mrs. Walter
Pryor, Kendall, Wis. The two last
named were with their brother in
his final hours, and with their hus-
bands and children attended the
funeral. They did all that filial
duty could suggest or their circum-
stances would permit for their suf-
fering brother and the afflicted chill
dren, and gave to the remains a
respectable interment. Deceased
had been reared in the Roman
Catholic faith and was buried by
the rites of that church, although
tho interment was by the side of
his wife in the Lancaster cemetery.
IF you stood by his coffin head,
Sad and silent as mOurnerS stand
Who look for the last time on their dead,
Would you fold rose in his quiet hand.
And drop tear and a whispered PRAYER.
For the weary dust that was resting there?
Or would you shrink from the solemn sight
OF eyelids frozen and bosom stilled?
The darkness of death is warmth and light
To tired life when it's hurt and chilled:
And the gate that opens for souls release
Is the gate that leads to endless peace"

EDITORIAL NOTES.
interesting Notes From Our Special
Political Correspondent.

All the Christian nations in the
world are sweeping out and fur
nishing their cabinets to receive
anon rare pieces Of old China.
The prosecution of Senator Smoot
insists that every Mormon holds
that obedience to law is subordinate
to obedience to God. Very well;
but does not every Christian hold
that same doctrine?
A member of the congressional
committee on Foreign commerce
saws that the Panama Canal Com
pany positively cannot deliver the
canal to the United States. If we
should pay it the $40, OOO,O 900 we
should only be buying the right to
build the canal and to retain 40 per
cent of the profits after paying all
expenses" This accords with Sen
ator Platt's view. But Cromwell,
counsel OF the Panama company,
saws there is no hitch whatever,
