GREAT Scheme In
NORTH INDIA

New York, June 1S.-Americans will
supply the equipment for a hydro
electric plant to furnish power for a
railroad system and commercial en-
terprises in the Cashmere valley, in
Northern India. Ten million collars
will be expended for the work. The
plant will be situated on the Jhelum
river, which is capable of developing
about 100000 horse power. A railway
will be built the entire length of the
valley, a distance. of $50 miles. The
Jhelum river will be deepened to pre-
vent annual floods. One hundred
thousand acres of rice land will be
reclaimed, and various cities will be
supplied with power
The Cashmere valley is full of fac.
tories, and here the famous Cashmere
shawls are, woven. Few outsiders have
been allowed to enter the valley,
which is over one mile above the sea
level. The government is independ-
ent under a Maharajah, whose an
nual tribute to the British govern
ment is one horse, twelve shawl goats
and three pairs of Cashmere shawls.
In the pOwerhouses will be installed
twelve 1,00-kilowatt generators, built
by the General Electric company,
which will be connected with water
turbines. The contract stipulates that
no piece of machinery packed shall
weigh more than four tons, for the
reason that there is two hundred miles
of road transportation, including a
lift over a mountain 5000 feet high.
Bullock carts, the capacity Of which is
five tons, will transport the machin-
cry. The first notable American pro-
ject in electrical development in In
dia was at Caryery Falls, where a u
600 horsepower plant was installed to
transmit power 10 the Mysore gold
fields.

Ennllsh Admiral Dead.

London, June lS.-The death is re-
ported at the age of 79 of Rear Ad-
miral John Blythesea, V. c., c. b. G..
l. T. In connection with the Rear Ad-
miral's death it is recalled how he
won his Victoria Cross by an act of
magnificent daring. While serving in
the Galtic during the Russian war, on
board the Arrogant, with the assist
ance of one of the crew he cut out
the Russian mails from the care of
a strong escort and returned to his
ship, making his prisoners row him
aboard. Shortly afterward he was
promoted to post captain, being then
the youngest of that rank in the Brit
ish navy.

On Friday morning, May Ii, 1906,
Margaret, beloved wife of John Gal
way, passed peacefully to her re-
ward at the advanced age Of IS
years; Y years ago last March she
was united in marriage to John

age of 80 years. Mr.. and Mrs. Gal
way have resided in Potosi town
ship for more than so years. For
the past Is years they have made
their home with their daughter, Mrs.
Ben Beir who has tenderly cared
for them, making their declining
years comfortable beyond a degree
rarely possible in like cases, among
elderly people reaching their res
pective years in the matter of long
evity. Mrs. Galway is survived by
her aged husband, two daughters
and three sons The funeral took
place on Sunday afternoon and was
largely attended, Rev, Father Pape
conducting the services. Interment

terry.
1t is with profound sorrow that
we announce the death of our friend
and neighbor Mrs. Jos. Vogelsberg,
who passed from the scenes of earth
on Monday morning, May 18th, at
10 o'clock; time forbids a more ex-
tended mention of her demise which
we hope to give at an early date.
The funeral was held on Wednesday
from the late family home to beauti-
full British Hollow cemetery.
The announcement of the death
of Mrs. Alloys Grimm, Of Cassville,
on Thursday too was received with
much regret by numerous friends IN
our village.
We have been requested to an
nounce that meeting of the mem
bers and all interested parUies in
the Potosi and British Hollow ceme-
terry association will take place on
the cemetery grounds on Wednes-
day, May 22nd; the object being to

They Are Not to be Deceived.

The Kansas City Journal has the
following sage advice to offer which
is well for many Lancaster lads to
heed:
Boys, business men of your
town know you better than your
parents. There eyes are on you
when you are least aware. You
may slip away from your mother,
you may dupe aud deceive your
best friends, you may elude the
wStchful eye of your teacher, you
may tri1e with the confidence of
your Sunday school superintendent,
but you can't fool the business men
in your town when they have a
position to be filed"

Representative Babcock is hav-
ing considerable difficulty in filling
two vacancies at the Annapolis
Naval academy to the credit of the
Third Wisconsin district. Three
young men recommended in turn for
these places by Mr.. Babcock failed
to qualify for one reason or another.
The navy department has informed
the representative that the vacancies
must be filled before June in order
that the nominees may be given a
mental and physical examination
preparatory to entering the new
class. The physical examination
prescribed at Annapolis is rigid,
and to enter a young man must be
almost perfect physically. Repre-
sentative Babcock has sent word to
the Third district inviting all young
men who desire to enter the naval
academy to communicate with him.
Dispatches from Madison to the
Milwaukee papers state that actions
are to be begun in each county of
the state next week against all
candidates who failed to file state
ments of their campaign expenses
in the recent spring election The
laws governing the filing of cleo
ton expense statements we're made
more severe last winter and now
makes it impossible to evade the
law. 1t does not matter if a candi-
date is elected or not, nor if he
spent nothing, he must make a
statement just the same. City vii
lage and town clerks are also liable
with the candidate, if he fails to
notify those who have not COM
piled with the law in his voting
precinct. If there are any who
were candidates at the spring cleo
ton in this county who have failed
to file expense statements, now is
the time TO do so. The penalty is
from 800 to $500 fine.

though the Republican party is to
be the only one making no effort to

At this season of the year. Wash
ingtOn is certainly a beauty spot
with its wealth of flowers and foil
age, clean streets and well kept
parks and drive ways. Wisconsin
visitors assert that vegetation is
fully a month in advance here. The
government makes a speciality or
keeping up its property and the
public parks and breathing spaces
about the city show the care exer-
cised. In carrying out this work.
Congressman Babcock, as chairman
Of the district committee, has taken
responsible part and in many in
stances the general excellent ap-
pearance as well as beauty of Wash
ington can be. traced to legislation
enacted though his efforts. Tt is on
account of this that Congressman
BabcOck stands in such high favor
with the business men and public
generally, and in nearly every IN
stance, he received credit for i'm
provements made IN the national
city.
