Lester Palmer, passed away this
morning at half-past three o'clock
as the result of an internal cancer.
The Young man was about twenty
years old and had suffered from the
malady for some time. Early last
spring Mr.. Palmer disposed of his
interests in the town of Fairfield
and moved to Barron county. AS
the son was not able to go the mo-
ther remained with him and they
made their home with Mr.. Palmer's
father in Fairfield where the de-
mise occurred. Some days ago Mr..
2. and daughter. Miss Ethel, were
summoned from Barron county on
account of the serious condition of
the invalid. The daughter had re.
turned but Mr.. Palmer was here
when the end came. Besides father,

The Whole Story. ,

Burton Holmes the lecturer tells
of the Russian he saw some years
ago in Manchuria whose methods of
achieving results were not accord
ing to the usual code. The Russian
had well in his front yard which
ne concluded to fill up. He began
digging a hole by the side of the
we'll, throwing the dirt from the
new excavation into the well.
"In the course of time" says Mr..
Holmes, "the old we'll was filed, but
there was hole alongside as big as
the first. The Russian went fur
ther away and dug another hole to
fill the second. ~.....
He continued this process of
digging one hole to fill the other
until he literally ran the hole outof
town. ."-Woman's Home Companion

PICTURESQUE DANCE.
Give Feast of Thanksgiving
to Great Spirit.

Black River Falls, Wis, May 24-
The buffalo dance given by the head
men of the Winnebago tribe of
Indian Creek Tuesday was one of
the most picturesque sights ever
seen here. The dancers, men, women
and children, were dressed in the
gaYest of gay colored calicos and
t1annels, decorated with fine silk
ribbons, ornaments of silvei, bead
work and feathers.
The dance was given by Wemi-
shiek, whose ancestors we're the
early chief of the tribe. An old
British flag of handmade fiber.
badly battered and worn, was sus-
pended from flag pole at one end
of the wigam where the dance took
place. The flag was taken by the
Winnebagoes while fighting with
the French against the British
soldiers in the eighteenth century.
The little Indian boys amused
the visitors by shooting nickles
from sticks and an occasional
squirrel from a high tree with their
bows and arrows. This is one &C
complishment which the Winneba-
goes retain to this day, and one
would be as safe in front of a Win
chester rifle in the hands of a crack
shot as in front of a steel pointed
arrow in the hands ola Winnebago
Inoian.
The dance and feast is given as
an expression of thanks to the
Great Spirit for the bountifuI
supply of food and prospects of
abundance of crops.

ExcIT EN- ENT
Still Continues at Richiand
Center.

Richland Center, Wis, May 25.-
When the hearing of Charles Tyler
his two sons and Frank Smith.
alleged assaiIants of Ruth st. John,
was called today, it was found i'm
possible to proceed with the hear
ing owing to the condition of the
girt, which would not permit her to
appear in court. The hearing was
postponed until some day next
week. The officers hint that it will
be held next Thursday, but owing
to the fact that trouble is expected
they are cautious in giving out
information regarding the exact
time.
Scores of people from the sur
rounding country were in the city
today to attend the hearing. For
the most part they were orderly
and we'll behaved. One or two
fights were indulged in, but the
police force, which has been
doubled the past week, was able to
keep things quiet. Crowds at
tracted by curiosity gathered
around the jail, but made no
demonstrations.
When it was learned that the
hearing had been postponed t, e
crowds gradually dispersed, and
there is 70 excitement in the city
tonight. Some lynch talk was in
dulged in today, but no trouble for
the present is feared, although
there is a feeling of unrest among
the people. William Tyler, the
youngest of the alleged assailants,
was discharged from custody today.
He was able to establish an alibi
and as he had not been accused by
the girl, he was given his freedom.
He is 20 years old.
Ruth St. John, upon whom the
assault was committed, is still i'll at
the jail here. She improves each
day and will be able to appear at
the hearing next week. Knockout
drops" were given her by those who
assaulted her and her memory of
the events of the night of the
assault is still vague. It is said
that the men assaulted her several
blocks from the place where she
was found, and afterwards took her
to the barn.
Charles Tyler, his son Roy, and
Frank Smith still remain in jail.
Bonds were today fixed at $500, but
the three men were unable to
furnish them. Police Justice
MacNees conducted the brief ses-
sion today.
