Hon. O. X. Roe has so far recovered
from his recent illness as to be up and
around his home.
Mrs. William Ferman died Saturday
of cancer with which she had been
afflicted for two years or more.
Anton Onsrud, who has been in a
hospital in Chicago for many weeks, is
yet in crlticul condition.
Grit Jehu raised his mammoth barn
on Tuesday. The barn is the largest and
best,in the country, $4,000 feet of lumber
having been hauled, and more will be
needed. 1t will take $4,000 single to
cover the roof.
Miss Anna johnson, of Union, Rock
county, who was taken i'll with lung
trouble three months ago, is reported
much better and her improvement is
ascrbed to practically living in the open
air since last July. She will, as far as
possible, continue this mode of living
during the coming winter.
Recurring rumors that the Stoughton
State Bank is to open on such and such
date have so far proved without foun-
dalton. Inquiries of Mr.. Commissioner
Berghs representative at the bank fail
to elicit any information except the non
cornmital reply that the investigation is
still in progress. Many business men
have funds tied up in the bank and the
delay is having marked influence on
the cash business of the city. 1t is in
the interest of these depositors that the
bank commissioner is supposed to be
acting and it would seem to be his plain
duty to clear up the situation with the
utmost dispatch, and also to acquaint
the public through the press with the
status of affairs and the necessity for
the long time it takes to effect settle

antiquity OK Su: q.


The origin O. s}ar :, = H,.>t&.T,', but
we have many eVi~> "t.> II is "ltiQui-
ty. It is mentioned ut least twice in
the Bible under the name Of borith at a
period corresponding to several centu-
rieS before Christ. In the Louvre in
Paris there is an interesting old vase
of EtruScan manufacture whose age is
computed at about $500 years. 1t is
interesting in connection with our sub
ject as bearing group Of children in
relief who are engaged in blowing bub-
bles from pipes. Though we must not
overlook the fact that certain vegeta-
BILE juices are capable of being used in
blowing bubbles, it is for many reasons
more probable that soap of artificial
manufacture was employed for the
purpose. In the unearthed city of Pom
peii, the preservation of which has
been the means of revealing to us many
antique customs, there is to be seen a
soap mandatory, with all the kettles
and other paraphernalia pertaining to
the business; also a quantity Of soap,
evidently the product of this antique
''soapery." The memorable volcanic
eruption, while removing a city from
the face of the earth, preserved to us
the evidences Of high civilization.

WILCOX DECLARES
AGAINST RATE BILL
Says Roads Oppose Rebates
and Viii Aid Legislation to
That End

NEW YORK. March 23.-President
Wilcox of the Delaware & Hudson
company, in his annual report to thu
stockholders, says the company has no
desire that rebates. secret rate emitting
unjust discrimination or undue prefer-
ence in railway service shall be toler-
ated. Existing statutes. he SAYS pro-
hibit them and they have practically
ceased.
The railway companies. he saws. will
support any further efforts toward
their suppression. The bill now pend
ing in congress. he declares, takes the
rate making power from the railroad
officials and vests ii in a government
board having no responsibility for re-
suits.
This concerns seriously all interested
in the railways. 1t would place their
income under the control Of the board
whose chief function would be natural
ly TO satisfy those asserting claims
against il. The obvious tendency of
this would be to cut down the income
of railways so as-to seriously affect
their value and impair their ability to
pay for wages, material and increase
of efficiency. The rate making board.
he declares, could not be possibly so
well informed or efficient as the rail-
way officials, in view OF the vastness of
duties
President Wilcox suggested that all
who are interested in the property of
the Delaware & Hudson company give
them their careful consideration and
take such action to protect their inter-
ests as many seem appropriate.

| GIVE RAILROAD SIDE
ON DEMURRACt BILL
Officers Discuss Reciprocal
Measure Before CONNER
clal Club Directors

The railroad side of the case in the
discussion as to the reciprocal demur-
rage bill now before the legislature
was presented yesterday at the joint
meeting of the board of directors and
transportation committee of the Com
mercial club. Those present represent
ing the railroads were: A. E. Clark
and ]. N. Tittemore. Minneapolis & ST.
Louis; H E. Still. Northern Pacific:
CT. +. Conn, 500: w. NJ. Stevenson.
Wisconsin Central: F. E. Otis, Mil
waukee. and G.. J. Thomas of the Great
Western.
Each of the railroad men discussed
the bill and its effects if passed and
showed how the operation of the bill
might be used as a holdup on the
roads. One point made was this:
There is no provision in the bill to
prevent shipper from making a de-
mand for cars from a railroad at a
time when cars might be scarce and
when at the same time he was receiv-
ing cars consigned TO him. III he chose
TO use the loaded cars as warehouses
and retain them from the possession of
the railroad indefinitely, say for six
days. the demurrage bill of the rail-
road against the shipper for the re-
tention of the car would be Sc. Now IL
the same shipper had ordered a car
just the minute his loaded car was de-
livered to him and the road was unable
to furnish it on account of the fact that
he was holding the car at his ware
house. the demurrage bill of the shipper
against the company would be Sc.
Thus the railroad company would lose
the use OF the car and the shipper
would gain IL without payment OF any
demurrage.
After a long discussion the directors
and committee retired and considered
the matter i'm secret session. No action
was taken by the board and the whole
matter was put over until the next reg
ular meeting

RACE GROWS CLOSER
Milwaukee and Northwestern
Struggle Toward Deadwood

The race between the Milwaukee and
able to get first to the Black Hills is in
an acute stage. The Milwaukee has
whole trainloads OF bridge material
waiting on the east bank of the Mis-
souri, river at Chamberlain. ready when
permission Is granted to shoot tenn
porary bridge across the stream and
start for the hills with the. grading.
The city council at Chamberlain grant,
ed this permission at the last meeting
and the road now only waits for the
expiration of the statutory time - in
which the ordinance and franchise
might be reconsidered before COM
mencing work
At Pierre the Northwestern Is equal
ly active and reports reached st. Paul
yesterday that the grade level has been
decided upon and work on the line to
connect Pierre with Deadwood will be
pushed. The engineers of the road have
discovered that the old grade which
was built up the Cheyenne river is all
I'm very fair shape, which gives the
North Western slight advantage over
the Milwaukee at the start. The COM
pleted grade Is so miles long. which
leaves a gap of about 1876 miles to be
graded. The last 20 miles into the hills
is through a rougher country. and while
the Northwestern Will have a good
start ii is thought that the Milwau-
KEGS grade can be constructed so
much quicker that the finish OF the
race will be very close.
The building of the two roads Will
be of great Importance to the Twin
Cities, as they will place a consider
able amount OF grain growing and
cattle raising territory in such close
touch with st. Paul that much grain
and beef will be moved through the
northern gateway that now is not
shipped this way.

The Japanese are following the Rus
sian rear guard which Is moving north
from Santoupu at the rate of eight and
a half miles a day. On both TANKS
the Japanese are operating a wide
turning movement, but the strength OF
the thanking forces has not been def
niteiy ascertained. At number OF
places along the railroad between San
toupu and Gunshu pass there are
broken hills with steep sides and gorges
at the bottom where stubborn resist
ance might be made. but II is doubtful
whether Gen. Linevitch viii make a
stand before he reaches the Sungari
river and Chamberlain. Unless he Is
able to hold the line of the river the
Russian position will be so weak STRAIT
egically that he may be compelled to
retire back of Hardin into Siberia,
owing to the fact that as they ap-
proach Hardin the Russian front paral-
lels the railroad, rendering the danger
OF severance of the sole line of COM
munication constantly greater.
While the army Is still far from ST.

road is only from raiding parties and
