Cannot Challenge Machine Vote.

Attorney General Sturdevant has
decided a point of interest OF WIS
cons1n voters, that votes cast on a
voting machine cannot be chalieng-
ed. The following is his decision
in part as gwen in an interview;
There is no way to challenge a
vote on the voting machine and
and make it effective. The statutes
provide that if a vote is challenged
and the voter swears in the vote the
ballot shall be marked on the back
by the number of the voter VINO
casts the vote. When Young
machine is used, however, the vote
may be challenged, bnt there is no
way of designating this ballot SO
far as l have discovered, so II the
voter is ultimately disqualified the
vote may be thrown out without a
detriment to the correct returns. In
other words the question is, II a
ballot cast by a challenged voter is
ultimately thrown out, what oallo1
are you going to throw out when
there is no way of marking ballot
challenged"

Club Doings.

A gentleman was heard to re-
mark, 1.-The American History Club
is the banner club for work in all
lines. They are alive and not afraid
to let people know it."
What's the use of hiding ones light
under a bushel? It was not so in
Colonial times; however, we cannot
help regretting what was missed In
not having the fun of the present
time in the novelty of covered dish
parties which might have helped to
tighten the shadows that hung over
the heads of the Revolutionary
danes.
Woman's curiosity may be easily
aroused by mysterious covered
dish, but, when a party of sixteen
or eighteen ladies have each COW
cred dish, Eve herself could no
more have resisted a guess of the
contents than these selfsame club
ladies.
Three comforters were tied and
completely finished at special
meeting, at Mrs. A. G. Morse's,
after which the spacious dining
room was opened and the ladies
were usheLed into table full Of
dishes with 1heir hidden contents.
Each guest was provided with
pencil and paper to venture one
guess on each numbered dish. Out
of eighteen Mrs. A. c. Morse guess
ed seven correctly, and was award
ed the prize; while three who
guessed none correctly drew straws,
the lot falling to Mrs. Nellie Bald
win for the consolation prize. What
next?

Veteran Engineer Passes AWAY.

Thomas Dolan, veteran engineer
and one of the most faithful en-
ployes of the Northwestern road,
passed away at the Madison general
hospital at $50 o'clock Saturday
night. He was taken to the hospital
just three aDd a half hours before
death, having been seized with a
stroke of paralysis of the brain
while standing on the Northwestern
depot platform waiting for his train.
Mr.. Dolan began his railroad life
IN GAINESVILLE about 40 years ago.
He started as water boy on a work
train and through faithful and con-
scientious service to the company he
climbed the ladder until he was
trusted with anGengine. Before be-
coming an engineer he was brakes
man and fireman. About 20 years
ago he lost leg in an accident be-
tween Riley and Klevenville. He
was engineer on the west end
passenger train and another To-
connective ran into him. Mr.. Dolan
was pinned between the engines.
Deceased was a resident of Ian
caster for several years before re-
moving to Milwaukee where he had
resided for some time. He was well
known and highly respected here in
a large circle of acquaintance.

0bltuary-Hayes E. Farrand.

"Ye know not what shall be on
the morrow"
Hayes E. Farrand was born in
Potosi township, December 3, 1876.
Resided from early infancy in Lam
caster and vicinity. October oath,
in the presence Of a happy gather
ing of relatives and neighbors, he
was united in marriage to Miss
Minnie Bass, Rev. Morgans per-
forming the ceremony. Alas! how
soon that joyous wedding day was
turned into a day of unutterable
sadness. Just two weeks and IN
the presence of much larger as
semblY, the same minister consigned
to the silence of the tomb all that
was earthly of the young bride
groom. There were no bright
smiles now, no joyful congratula
tions. The voice of merry laughter
was turned to the sound of mourn
ing and the wedding garments ex-
changed for the habilements of woe.
Flowers that lent their beauty and
loveliness to the bridal, now decked
a coffin lid. The heart of a large
community beats in warmest SYM
pathy for the cherished hopes so
suddenly blasted. And many sor-
row for the life so ruthlessly cut
off in the morning of its brightest
In
young man longest and best tell us
that his was a nature of sterling
qualities. Honest, industrious, and
kindly, with hopeful and cheerful
disposition, he was accorded a
welcome wherever he was known.
He had gone with his bride to the
home of their brother-i in law, Delbert
Taylor at Hurricane, to assist in the
corn-husking. He was taken sudden
ly very ill. His lungs had not been
strong. Good physicians were sum-
moned. He had careful and tender
nursing. In just one week the
dread pneumonia had completed
its deadly work. He passed peace
fully into the Mystic Land Nov.
5, 1906, leaving to mourn their
loss, his youthful, loving wife, his
father, three sisters and four
brothers. All were present at the
last sad rites, except one sister who
resides in Chippewa County. The
sister Grace resides with her father
in the city of Lancaster. They can
now no longer look for the bright
coming of Hayes" His dear pres
ence can cheer their home 20 more.
The fair, young bride will wet her
lonely pillow with tears-not yet
understanding the deep dark
mystery that had taken her loved
one so soon away. We see now as
through a glass darkly, but lover
there" we shall see face to face,
and know that God, our Father
always doeth all things we'll.
20. Star of Love.
When sorrows overwhelm me,
Shine on me from above,
And let me know and feel,
When clouds are darkest Thou, my light,
NOT SHINING Still.
As rainbowS shine
On darkest clouds at sunset,
Do in this heart of nine,
with its bark double and fearS)
Shine Thou and sparkle through and
through
My binding tears.
Then come what will,
Dark clouds or Deaths dark shadow,
Since Thou art shining still,
Over my weary way,
can but fear no i'll at all,
By night or day.
Even swift death.
With all its terrOrS dreadful,
Must yield to living faith,
Bethlehem'S Star of light,
Undimmed by death itself can shine.
Through deaths dark night"
The funeral services were held at
the Hurricane church, and burial
was made in the Kinney cemetery.
