Steens Notes.


EDITOR DISPATCH-As Z have
never seen any thing from our
section thought I would write You
a few items. If you will allow me
space IN your most valuable pa
per. The farmers are greatly
behind with their work owing to
excessive rainfall, but | guess
they are in plenty time to raise
another six cent cotton CROP.
Very little corn planted and no
cotton at all except few patch
es.
Our town is coming to the
front, the latest thing for Steens
is a complete ginning outfit. The
stock holders met several days
ago and organized a five thou
sand dollar stock company. The
principal stock holders are: Mr..
J A. Mehaffey, R. G. Harris. S.
F. Harris. F. V. Richards, H. B.
Vaughn and Mr.. T. @. Kim
brough. of West Point. The
building will be commenced at
an early date and will be com
pIeted for the fall ginning. Mr..
r. O. Harris, who lives at Steens,
will be manager during the gin
ming season. The gin will be
located on the Brothers land
near the crossing of the South
ern Railroad. It is the inten
ton of the company to gin and
buy cotton seed and strip the
cotton as cheap as Colum bus or
anywhere else.
After we get the gin in opera
ton I think the Southern could
give Steens a depot or some
thing for convenience of it's pa
irons. Anyone who is acquain-
ten with the place knows there
is nothing here at all.
DR.. L. S. Pennington, who has
just completed a course in a
Memphis Medical School, is with
US again.
Mr.. G. W. Hudson and his
neice, Miss Lola Egger, the
charming young daughter of Mr..
VIM. Egger of Caledonia, are Wis
iting relatives in the Bent Oak
neighborhood.
Mr.. Chester Cole was a visitor
in the New Salem community
yesterday
Mr.. Editor, think you should
vote on having the Odd Fellows
celebration at Bethel again as
we have such a delightful place
with plenty of shade and water
and always plenty to eat.
Well. Mr.. Editor if this escapes
the waste basket I will try to
come again. -

Chicago, Ill, Oct. 21.-Northwest-

poorly played game in the second half
today, and McCornack's men were
held to a score of 0 to 0, by the scrap
by Kentucky eleven, who had been re.
garded as easy picking by the North
western. The purple backs could not
gain thru the Kentuck line, and in at
tempts at end runs they were invari-
ably drawn into swirl Of red jerseys
before gain could be made.
Johnson slumped from his best
playing of last Saturday, and was TAX
en- out in the second half. The Ken
lucky men put up stiff fight and
Redden, their Michigan coach, had de-
veloped a good imitation Of Yost ma
chine play. The game resolved itself
into a disappointing exchange Of
punts, both sides seeming to fear q
long march into the others territory.
The game was filed with fumbles and
offside play.
Gilbreth took things into his own
hands after the first ecrimmage, when
johnson was downed on the 30-yard
line on his return Of Kelley's kick
off. The husky tackle brought back
to carry the ball found a weak place
in Gillispie, the Kentucky right guard,
and plunged thru time after time fo1

'BONESETTER' PAST
] MASTER in GRAFT
Career Of Bigamist Who Commit
ted Suicide Is Traced Thru
Many Wisconsin Towns.
special to The journal.

Hudson, Wis, Oct. 21.-The news of
the suicide at Aitkin, Mimi, of DR.. w.
G. Arons, who was known thruout this
section as the 'bonesetter,'' created
some excitement in this city, where he
piled his trade as magical curer Of hui
man deformities for nearly two years. It
was here he had his greatest success in
attracting patients.
He came here in 1902 and established a
hospital, to which he gave the poetic
name Of Rose Villa It was large
residence on Liberty hill in South Hud-
son. He advertised most extensively in
papers far and near, and patients came
in large numbers, not only from near
by points. but also from remote cities
even from the Pacific coast He &C
cepted all patients that came, promising
sure cure. He had remarkable success
In getting money, demanding pay of his
patients before treatment, which they
strange as 1t may seem, willingly paid
so great was his prestige and their faith
in his skill.
He was an accomplished singer, pos
sessing a voice Of peculiar sweetness
and, with his wife, sang duets every
Sunday evening at one of the Ioca
churches. The church was crowded or
| account of his singing, and the pastor
Rev. Mr.. Lumley, was SO carried ava,
by DR.. Arons that he resigned his pas
torate in order to become his private sec
rotary. He regretted this, however, ant
became one Of the doctors severest de
| nouncers.
So great was the 'bonesetters'' sue
cess financially, his first year in Hudson
that his secretary declared he took in a
| least 100000. He spent his money Law
| 1shly, giving freely to all charitable an,
| other worthy undertakings.
1t was here that he met Mrs. Edn;
| Kenpker, his wife No. l, and it wa
she who brought about his downfall
when she discovered that he had mar
ried again in Minneapolis last summer.
| After DR.. Arons had practiced here TO
a year, his life became a trying one
Duped patients began to demand ba CT
their money and, failing in this. bega
suits for malpractice. Towards the en-
Of his stay here, such suits were in
stituted almost every week until his onl
recourse was to flee. He went to Call
fornia from here in the fall of 1904.
| Many reports are heard as to his ca
reer before coming here. He must nav
practiced under various names and i
various roles In a score or more c
cities. At Milwaukee he was Hind
wizard; at Madison, Wis, he was
palmist and healer Other Wisconsi
towns where he worked are Superio
Oshkosh and Fond du Lac. He cam
here from Superior.
There Is no sorrow in Hudson over h,
demise.
