LOUBET Is CONSULTING
Talks with the Different French PoIitic-I
Groups Relative to Now
Cabinet.

Paris, Jan. 20. - President Loubet
has begun consultations with the lead
ers of the various parliamentary
groups concerning the new ministry.
The selection OF ministry seems to
turn more upon policies than individ-
uals. Several groups, including the
Socialists, insist on the continuation
of the Combes programme, including
the separation of church and state, an
income tax and workingmen's pen
sions. Others insist that the new min
istry be not required to pursue the
COmbes policy.
The Temps, which usually is semi
official, and most of the other newspa-
pers except the Socialist organs urge
the appointment Of new cabinet and
the adoption of a new policy. M.
Rouviercontinues to be the most prom
inent among those desiring a new pol
icy, but NJ. Sarrien Radical Republic
am is developing strength among
those favoring the old policy.

There are good many men who
are lying under the sod because
they tried to please everybody.
When they started out IN life they
made up their minds that every
body should be satisfied with them,
but didn't succeed in making any
body happy but the undertaken.
The world is full of fault finders
and grumblers and a man can't
walk five minutes in any direction
without meeting them. Even
where man turns his face to the
wall, kicks the foot of the bed and
expires, there are people who find
fault with it. Some will say that
he ought have done it twenty years
before, while others will say that
he ought to have waited a little
longer for the sake of his family.
The man who just jogs along from
day to day regardless of what the
people say is the one who is the
hardest to kill and when at last he
does die there are about as many
bouquets laid on his casket as on
the casket of the man who worried
himself into Abraham's bosom.

MUST HELP TIE ALASKANS
White Men Are Making the Country I'm.
inhabitable for the Natives by
Killing Of the Game.

Washington, Jan. 2O.-In transmit
ting to the senate report by Lieuten-
ant G. I. Emmons, of the navy, on the
condition of the natives of Alaska, the
president sent message saying:
Lieutenant Emmons had for many
years peculiar facilities for ascertain
ing the facts about the natives of
Alaska and recently concluded an in
vestigation made on the ground by my
special direction. very earn
estly ask the attention of congress to
the facts set forth in this report as to
the needs Of the native people Of Alas
ka. 1t seems to me that our honor as
a nation is involved in seeing that
these needs are met. I earnestly hope
that legislation along the general lines
advocated by Lieutenant Emmons can
be enacted
In his report Lieutenant Emmons
says that the rush Of white mem to
Alaska has caused a complete change
Of conditions; that game is being killed
off and the food supply of the Indians
rapidly exhausted.

Obituary--Steil.

& Christine Steil born February Ii,
1885,; died January II, 1905, aged sc
years, 10 months and 90 days. She
was born and raised at Pigeon, staying
at home until she married Robert
Fuerstenburg, to whom five children
were born. The youngest being two
months and the oldest 10 years of age.
The last II years of her life were spent
at Wilmont, MINI. Thursday evening,
December 9Th, 1904, while at the sup
per table she received dispatch that
her father was dangerously sick. 1t
was sad news but it had to come. Her
health would not have permitted her
to come, but thinking more of her
father than of herself, she made prep
arations during the night, and at the
risk of her life started next morning
with two little children and the baby,
who was two months old, to see her
dying father. 1t was hard task but
her greatest desire was to see her
father alive. She arrived at Lancaster
December 10th and found her father
in critical condition. He did not
know her any more and could not
speak for the last two days. She saw
him alive but that was all for in few
hours death called him away. She
often spoke of her husband and two
children whom she left at home while
here. Friday, December 10Th, being
the day after the funeral she started
for home. The station agent instead
of giving her a ticket to Iona, Mimi,
gave her a ticket to Ion. Iowa, this
being quite distance out of her way.
By this time she was very sick and
sent message for her husband who
came Immediately. By the time they
arrived home she was almost uncon-
scious. Three doctors were summoned
but they Immediately gave up all
hope, saying they could do nothing for
her. She breathed her last at her
home little after midnight Thursday
january r. She was well acquainted
around here and leaves many friends
and relatives to mourn her death.
Mrs. Peter Steil's poor health prevent

Things are so slow around Madi-
son that a number of the Legislators
went home Wednesday night, tired
of hanging around doing nothing.
There is absolutely no interest in
the senatorial campaign, except for
the very limited number who are
gu the inside. At the several head
quarters there is a semblance of
political excitement in the boxes of
cigars lying open on the center
tables, but that is about all, No
whispered conferences, no hurry
ing Of messengers, no eager al
though suppressed excitement, no
flying rumors nothing but the
dead calm of uncertainty centering
in the executive office.

the highest officials OF the empire. Only
by the closest margin did the emperor
escape death in the midst of the an

Alleged to Have Been Plot.
There are those who declare that
beyond a doubt it wGs one of the most
deliberate and far-reaching plots to
assassinate the whole Romanofr fam

festival of the Epiphany, the bless

concluded when simultaneously with
the salute fired from the st. Peter and
st. Paul fortress rain of bullets
swept over the little chapel built over
the frozen Neva in front of the Winter
Palace. where Emperor Nicholas and
every member of the Romanoff family
were participating in the service.
As 1t Is Explained Omcially.
The official account of this strange
shooting affair. however, is as follows:
During the ceremony in the presence
of the emperor, as the usual salute
was being fired charge Of grape in
stead of saluting charge was fred
from a gun belonging to one of the bat
teries stationed near the bourse. Some
bullets stNlck the facade of the Win

ed her from going such a distance.

We loved her in life,
Let US not forget her after death.
Weep not that her tolls are over
Weep not that her race is run,
God grant that we may rest as calmly.
When our work like hers is done.
Till then we yield with gladness.
Our sister to Him to keep,
And rejoice in the sweet assurance
He glveth, his loved one Sleep"
Call not back the dear departed
Anchored safe when storms are Ger
On the border land we left her
Soon to meet and part no more.
When we leave this world of changes
When we leave this world of care
We shall find our missing loved one
In our Fathers mansion Ger.
There was choir in Heaven
That was not quite complete
SO God took our loving sister
To fill the vacant chair.
