VIII Dig Big Ditch to Drain Township.

Eight years ago the county board
made an appropriation for the digging
of huge drainage ditch in the towns Of
Center, Union, Porter and Magnolia, to
reclaim almost half township of land
which is now covered by what is known
as the Evansville marsh. After four of
the sixteen miles had been completed
the contractors found that the ditch was
filing up as rapidly as it was dug and
the county board paid them a bonus to
abandon the work.
The farmers whose prop erty will be
benefited by this ditch have banded to-
gether to complete the work and it is
hoped that this time the obstacles can
be overcome. The great trouble with the
work eight years ago was the fact that
the quicksands abounded. at the bottom
of the proposed ditch and that as fast as
the top layers OF earth was cleared away
it filled again.
It is thought that by pacfing the
sides of the ditch with some hard una
terial, perhaps cement, where the quick
sands are, possible this obstacle can be
overcome. This fall, when the water has
subsidized, willb the best time to do the
work, and at present the promoters of
the plan are making up the schedules of
taxation for work and later will advertise
for contracts. : = s-.s5s,

Obituary.
t. w. FRUSHER.

Mr.. Thomas William Frusher dropped
dead Saturday morning while in the
road about 40 rods from his home in the
town of Porter, from heart failure. The
deceased was 81 years of age, and was
born in Cambridgeshire, England, and
came from England when 8 years old,
settling in GAINESVILLE, Wis. He was an
early settler In the township in which he
resided In 1870 he married Miss
Catharine Mccarthy OF the town OF Por-
ter. He had been in poor health for
some time, but was feeling little better
than usual upon this fatal morning and
cared for his favorite team OF horses.
and was walking up the road toward
neighbors when the end came, almost in
stantly. He leaves a wife and five chill
dren, four sons and one daughter, Mr..
F. F. Frusher OF Chicago, Jerry Frush-
er of Beloit, and Tommy, Willie and
Jennie. who are living on the farm, to
mourn their sad loss of a kind indnlgent

lie church in Porter and the remains in
tered in the Porter Catholi cemetery.

StoughtOn to Have q Hospital.

Through the effort mainly of DR.. liver
son the business college property at
Stoughton is to be converted into hos
pital. At meeting of the stockholders
held during the week it was decided to
sell the property to DR.. Iverson for
$4,000, with proviso that it should be
conducted continuously for ten years as
hospital. Another condition is that
the hospital shall be open to any doctor
to perform operations upon his own
cases. An institution of this character
IS needed in every town the size of
Stoughton.

SEWER BIDS RECEIVED.
S@Hayes Bros. of GAINESVILLE Likely to OBJ
tain the Contract.


The indications now are that work on
the main sewer will commence in very
short time. The preliminaries are about
completed and the right of way through
the property where the pipe is to be laid
has IN most cases been satisfactorily Sc
cured from the owners. l.. Ell. Towne
has been engaged during the week in
making the survey and stalking out the
line, commencing near the bridge over
Saunders creek on Randolph street and
running down the ravine to the river.
The. largest pipe used will be eighteen
inches, and this will be laid from the
Shepard feeding station to where it
empties into the river. The estimated
cost at this time is very near the nine
thousand dollar mark. Five bids were
filed with the board of public works for
the construction of the sewer which
varied widely as to the cost of the i'm
provement Three of the bidders were
GAINESVILLE parties, Hayes Bros. Co., j. P.
Cullen and McVicker Bros. Harding &
Nelson Of Racine and Blake Bros. of
Madison, whose figures ranged from
trifie under $4,000 to upwards of $4,000.
The lowest estimate came from the
Hayes Bros. Co, who will undoubtedly
be awarded the contract. All of the
bids, however, were considerably above
the estimate made by VIM. Ruger whose
survey was adopted by the city.
