An Odd Old Man Is Dead.

Henry Essler, for number of years a
farmer near Retreat in Vernon county
just across the Crawford county line, is
dead. He was 107 years old and up to a
few months ago he was as strong and
healthy as the average man at sixty. He
had worn out two sets OF teeth with
which nature had generously provided
him. Until he was ninety five he never
wore glasses, and after wearing them
two years his sight was restored and he
discarded them. His memory for dates
and trifling incidents that transpired
over half a century ago was remarkable.
He was perhaps the oldest as we'll as
the eldest man in the state and he was
decidedly primitive. He loved to sleep
in hay loft rolled up in blanket aud
his simple menu consisted of bread and
potatoes with several cups Of tea and. he
had no use for, a knife and Fork.
Essler was born ia Herkinef county,
New York, in 1885,, Of German parentage.
In 1849 he was member of the famous
Fremont expedition that made the first
overland trip to California. A party of
200 that had preceded them were killed
by the Indians and here Essler became
the principal in romance. While ex-
aiming the baggage of the unfortunate
he raised the top of double wagon box
and found little girl about four years
old, still alive, and being unable to get a
trace of relatives, two years later adopt
ed her. She is now the wife of we'll
to do Prairie du CHEN man.

Walker plantation for the big distillery
firm across the river from Detroit, will

A Colonial Party.

Last Friday evening the Euchre Club
met at the spacious home of Mr.. and
Mrs G. L. Culton. Instead of the usual
pastime of cards, the evening was spent
in dancing in the pretty dancing hall,
which was decorated in red, white and
blue in honor of the occasion.
The guests we're invited to come
dressed in colonial costume or any other
as they preferred. Each gentleman
looked the real George Washington,
John Adams or Thomas Jefferson in his
gold and lace trimmed velvet suit, pow
dered wig and three cornered hat. The
ladies looked quaint and sweet in gowns
worn by mothers or grandmothers in
early days. Uncle Josiah" was present
as was the Spanish Cavalier, and even
representative of the "wild and woolly
west dropped in. The gypsy maid was
not excluded and two students in cap
and gown joined the party, as we'll as
the little school boy with his slate and
pencil.
Mr.. and Mrs. T. B. Earle carried off
the honors of the evening for being the
most popular couple. They represented
the Highland lad and lassie' from Scot
land, and very becoming we're the plaid
kits and sashes.
In the early part of the evening Mr..
Bardeen stepped in and. took fash
light picture of the crowd.
Dainty refreshments were served in
the artistic dining room, shortly after
which the guests left the good old times
to come back to the present better ones.

HEIR TO MILLIONS.
Thomas Keefe is in Luck-Waterbury
 People Interested.

 Thomas Keefe is in Luck-Waterbury
 People Interested.
 Winsted, Nov. 1S-Thomas Keefe of Front street, a coachman in the em- ploy of Mrs D. c. Barton. has receiv- ed information that has convinced him that he is one of several heirs to fortune of $1,500,000.
 The fortune is purported to have been left by Daniel Keefe, an uncle of MT Keefes mother who died i'll Texas thirty-five years ago. Daniel Keefe. when a young man, left his home in Ireland and came to the Uni- ted States to make his fortune. He went west and finally settled in Tex as. He never married and his rela- tives lost all trace of him as he did of them. About three weeks ago Thomas Keefe received letter stat ing that he was entitled to portion of the estate if he could prove his claim. He has engaged the law firm of O'Donneu Brothers of Northamp- ton, Mass, to look after his interest.
 MT Keefe was greatly surprised when he received the letter announc- ing his good luck. Other relatives who are interested and who are ex- pected to secure some of the money are Mrs Michael Griffin of Main street, Mrs W. F. Burns of Oak street. Mrs Daniel O'Brien of Holabird aven- ue, Martin Keefe of Waterbury and his son, Rev Father Keefe. When Daniel Keefe died in the Lone Star state no one knew of his relatives and consequently noth- ing could be done toward settling his estate. Lawyers, however took up the quest for relatives. They wrote nT- merous letters to Ireland and finally learned that some of the heirs lived in Connecticut. It is estimated that about $1,000,o00 has been spent in To- eating the heirs.
