Shullsburg Pick and Cad: One of the
best strikes ever made in this district
occurred last week, on the Sarah Rod
ham farm, about four miles northeast
Of this city. John Rodham has been
drilling on this land, and last week
struck lead at depth of twenty-four
feet. The lead continued to depth of
about thirty-two feet, at least eight
feet in all, when jack was encountered
running to depth of thirty eight feet,
which was as far as drilled. The lead
taken out in the sludgings is as pure as
any that can be found in the bins of a
concentrating mill, and Mr. Rodham is
willing to gamble that he took out at
least one hundred pounds of the pure
article in the sludgings, and the drill
carries only four-inch bit. The jack
encountered below the lead is of the
rosin variety, and the cuttings are very
rich.

The November DeiineafOr.

The November Delineator treats of
the established styles for Autumn both
in dress and millinery, and also devotes
much space to the accessories of dress
which women find so alluring. The
spirit of Thanksgiving season is pre-
served in poem by Theodosia Garrison
football story by Violet Coen, and an
old = fashioned Thanksgiving story by
Harriet Prescott Spofford: and the
Kitchen department is stocked with
suggestions for variety of Thanks
giving feasts. For the feminine fingers
that grow so busy preparing Christmas
gifts between November's and Deem
ber's great feast days, there are num-
erous suggestion for practical and orna-
mental gifts in the Needlework depart
ment.

Death Of . Former Resident.

Henry r. Birely, for twenty years
prominently identified with the business
interests of Oshkosh, passed away at
his home in that city, at five o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 10, after an
illness of nearly ten months, cancer of
the throat claiming him for its victim.
He was forty-seven years of age.
The end was especially tragic, al
though apparently painless and easy for
Mr.. Birely. He had been debating let
tiers at four O'Clock, while confined to
his bed. Later his aunt, Mrs. A. j.
Tully, began reading to him. Mrs. j.
G. Birely, his mother, was in the room
at the time. He had been breathing
heavily al day, but seemed to be no
nearer death than at any other time
during the last few weeks when he had
known that there could be but one end
to his illness. While Mrs. Tully was
reading a cheerful passage Mr.. Birely
laughed little, almost to himself, and
the life left him without pain and en-
tirely without warning
Henry Russell Birely, known in Min
eral Point as Harry" was born in
Hamilton, Canada, May %, 1859. When
he was child of two years he accom-
panied the family to Decatur, ILL.,, later
living for short time in Danville, Ill.
In his boyhood the family came to Min.
eral Point, Wis, where they spent sev.
eral years. He was unmarried. Sur
viving are the parents, Mr.. and Mrs J
G. Birely, and one sister, Mrs. McCor.
mick. The latter's home is IN London
Canada.

Miss Nellie Elliot came home from
Milwaukee this week on account of the
serious illness of her brother-in-law,
Matthew Kieffer.
Miss Mary Sims has accepted posi-
ton as stenographer at the Democratic
state central committee headquarters
in Milwaukee and commenced her duties
Monday.
The Dodgeville correspondent of the
Rockford Gazette sends that paper the
following; "The Republican county
committee and the Democratic county
committee of this county are both lay
ing claims to the same candidate for
coroner. At the primaries held in this
county recently it developed that Mr..
Bilkey of this city was nominated on
both Republican and Democratic tick
cts. Mr.. Bilkey has declined to indi-
cate on which ticket he wishes to run
and the law not being plain, the county
clerk is unable to determine and has re-
ferred the matter to the attorney gen.
eral. Mr.. Bilkey is one of the old set
tiers of Iowa county and has held many
positions of honor and trust.
An unusually larre number of resi-
dences are under construction in this

will be among the finest in the city, and
all are modern structures which will be
fitted with the latest conveniences.

LINDEN


Mrs. A. erase visited her uncle, VIM.
Jeffrey, at Mineral Point last Saturday.
Mr.. Jeffrey is quite ILL.,
Mrs. Jackson of Beloit is here visit
ing Mr.. and Mrs. B. Treloar.
Little Winnie Colds worthy, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. Goldsworthy, has
been very sick in the last week.
Mr.. N. Fine and family have moved
to Mineral Point to live.
Last Sunday while some small boys
We're playing as boys will, even on Sun
day, one of them shot an arrow into the
air. While watching for it's descent
against the sunlight, the arrow fell on
one of the eyes of little Willard White.
A doctor was summoned, who attended
to the eye as matter of first relief,
but he said he thought it was impera-
tive that the child should be taken to a
specialist on Monday, and Mr.. White
took the child to Madison. The word is
that he will probably lose the sight of
that eye. The little fellow is now, too,
the victim of hard attack of whoop-
ing cough.
Rev. VIM. Thomas, who died at his
home in this village in the forenoon OF
Monday of the present week, after an
illness of only few days, was a native
of the county of Devonshire, that Eng
fish county which, beyond any territory
of equal area on the globe, has contrib
uted most to the Anglo Saxon suprem-
acy in the world that we see about us
today and he was a credit to his coun-
ty. Mr.. Thomas was born on the Sth
day of February, 1927. At the time of
his death he was seventy-nine years
and eight months old. In the spring of
lS4S Mr.. Thomas came tc the town of
Mfflin, in Iowa county. In 1850 he was
one of the numerous body of men who
started for California via the plains.
He remained there for year and a
half, thence going to England, and on
Jan. 81, 1852, he married Miss Kate
Peters, who, as his widow, still sur
wives him. They celebrated their gold
en- wedding in this village on the Dist
day of January, 1902. In the spring of
1852 Mr.. Thomas and his wife came to
Wisconsin, settling at Big Patch, in
Grant county. There they remained
for eight years, thence moving to Iowa
county, which county has ever since
continued to be their home. In the
spring Of 1890 Mr. Thomas leased his
farm IN the town Of Miffiin--and he had
one of the best and largest farms in
this county-to some of his children and
moved to this village to live. and here,
in love with Linden and its people, he
continued to live until death claimed
him. About forty years ago Mr.. Thorn
as was made local preacher in the P.
Nj. church society. Thenceforth he al
ways tried to meet his appointments to
preach. He felt anxious to do what he
could without money and without price.

sufficient force to render him uncon-
scious. He was taken to his home,
where his injuries were attended to.
The back of one hand was severely lac
Grated and the back of his head and
neck were bruised. TIE old horse, af-
ter doing all the damage possible, walk

ENGINEERS AND DUTY.

When Wynn Hill, Great Western
engineer, went to death while in the
line of duty, he died as much a hero
as the man who does battle and sacri-
fees life for country. His gave his own
life to save from destruction the load Of
human freight, the safety Of which was
temporarily in his keeping.
Life was as dear to Engineer Hill
as to any other man who is happy in
the possession of a home and family.
His were loving and lovable wife
and daughters, and under any other
conditions his first thought was always
for them. When a broken engine pilot
gave proof that the monster machine
would go to destruction and carry
himself and fireman with it, Hill did
not forget his family. He simply
placed duty first, altho he knew the
doing of it would cost him his life. He
sacrificed self for the scores of human
beings whose destiny was placed In
his keeping. He did not hesitate be-
tween duty and self preservation. He
stayed by the swaying and ponderous
machine in order to check If possible
It's destroying speed before it left it's
guiding track of steel. By staying al
his post the moments necessary to re-
verse the driving mechanism and apply
the brakes, he prevented the destruct-
ion Of many lives, altho in its accom-
plishment he knew that his own life
would be the forfeit.
Hill would be living today were he
less hero. Ills is not an exceptional
case. Rather it is the rule among the
men who railroad" among whom are
many of the bravest of the brave

PLACE.THE BLAME.

Notwithstanding the extraordinary
development of what might not i'm
properly be termed the science of
transportation and despite invention,
disasters like the recent horror at At
lantic City continue to multiply. A
drawbridge over which hundreds of
heavily loaded passenger cars race
daily fails to secure itself as it swings
back to effect a@perfect joining of the
railway track. The misplaced rails act
as switch to throw a passenger train
train into the incoming tide of the sea
and atrain load of human beings are
trapped and strangled like rats in a
sinking ship. It was the ranking hor-
ror of the year. It would seem that
this disaster was avoidable under the
exercise of precaution. Here was a
most dangerous spot. Accidents at this
place inevitably meant serious loss of
life. A narrow span ran over above the
remorseless sea below. Why was a
Waterman not stationed at the joining
of the rails whose special and single
duty should be to see that the adjust
ment was safely completed, that no
twisted rail threatened the lives Of
hundreds or to give warning if the
machinery should fail? The company
has hundreds OF men grown old in its
employ capable and trustworthy and
faithful, to set at the job. 1t could
have guarded this dangerous place
fully at cost of $40 month. 1t saved
a minor item on the pay roll to charge
a third of million against the acct
dent account That is what shows on
the company's books.
But the accounts of disaster are not
confined to the company bookkeeping.
The responsibility should not end with
the payment of damages and funeral
expenses. The most complete investi-
CATION Of transportation disasters is
needed, not only in the present but in
every case. If reasonable precaution
has been neglected in order to add a
petty profit or to avoid a petty expense
some one high in authority is as guilty
os criminal carelessness as the opera
tor who sends wrong train orders or

DOLLIYER,S ENEMIES.

Senator Dolliver in his speech at
Bloomfield appealed to the conscienti-
Gus voters of all parties to favor his
candidacy for the senate because, as he
told his hearers, the railroad corpora
tions had marked him for defeat.
IF that We're all l could look for
ward to-" he said, sit would be with
equanimity, but it means that hereaft-
er whoever takes up the peoples fight
will enter upon it with the distinct
understanding that those for whom he
labors are unable to protect him.
Senator Doliver knows whereof he
speaks. Whom the railroad corpora
tions can not control they counsel to
destroy. Dolliver made the fight for
rate regulation as the representative of
the people, not as the agent of the corr
porations. He made it in good faith
and won with the aid of other repre-
sentatives who remembered their duty
to the public. Worst of all and most
heinous Of offences against corpora
tons, he failed to stand for steal of
a state convention against the ex-
pressed will of the party in primary
and caucus. If he had been marked
for the slaughter before, the cry of
cruelty him grew deeper and more in
sistent. Dolliver knows when his seat
Is in danger and of whom it Is in dan
ger. When he told the Bloomington
audience that he must keep his place
against the corporations, If he were
able to keep it at all, he told them the
facts and when he said that it means
hereafter that whoever takes up the
peoples fight, will enter upon 1t with
the distinct understanding that those
for whom he labors are unable to pro-
tect him." he said in effect that the
people who fail to rally to the support
of the men who have best represented
them, do not deserve nor can long re-
tain liberty. Long ago the T.-R. ex-
corporations to defeat Dolliver. 1t is
well that the senator has himself dis
covered and realized who are the men
in Iowa that are seeking his political
life and the causes that ilnpel them.
1t is well also that the senator has
unearthed his real friends. If he has
loyal support in Iowa it is strongest
among those who are supporting a
straight republican. ticket In Iowa!
If he has enemies they are among those
who, anxious to use him for their own
purposes, turned against him, as such
men. always turn when they discover
ed that his fealty to the people rose
above their threats and promises.
No friend of Delivers can afford to
vote against republican legislator
this year. The corporations are after
Dolliver.

Prohibition was the real issue. Repup-
can legislatures had refused TO SUD

as many expected when the Platt
amendment was made part of the Gus
ban treaty. Some years ago, just when
the war with Spain commenced, an
Iowa man, well acquainted with the
Cubans, from travel there and business
relations in Cuba, said: They are no
more AT for government than the
negroes OF Oskaloosa or Des Moines
are to manage the affairs of the state
of Iowa" And the duty of the United
States concerning Cuba? That's easily
answered. We have found a baby on
