menian who was graduated from the
University of Wisconsin in 1903 and is
now editing an Armenian paper, 'The

foreign U. STUDENTS OPERA HOUSE WANTED
The City of Ladysmith Needs Play
House Managed on Up-to-Date
Methods.

For some time there has been an un-
dercurrent manifestation OF a desire
upon the part of the people of Lady
smith for first class opera house.
By "frst class" is not meant an ex-
travagant one-not one embellished for
show-but commodious, comfortable
and well managed one to which the
best class of performances consistant
with the size Of the town may be at
tracted.
Show people possess the fraternal
spirit to large extent and the reputa-
ton of town or opera house manage
ment soon becomes known to the show
world. If undesirable, only the poorer
class of shows will stop.
The impression is adrift that Lady
smith is a poor show town. The com
panv that was here the first Of last
week was surprised with the crowded
houses received. This demonstrates
but one fact-that good show, if the
people know it to be such, will draw
remunerative houses in Ladysmith.
Those who have confidence that with
a good opera house and proper man
agement, this city would come to the
front along this line, are anxious to
have the right thing prevail.
A ground floor opera house could be
built at moderate outlay. 1t need not
be very centrally located. 1t need not
be built on extravagant lines-just q
spacious, comfortable house-an wei
managed.

ing movement along.
ONEIDA COUNTY.
From Price county the car made a
fast run to Oneida county, topping at
Rhinelander, the most important city
in all north Wisconsin sonth of Ashland.
A population of over six thousand were
found here and a more active set of
business men cannot be found. Beauti-
fully located, Rhinelander is on the
broad highway to the rapid growth.
Just now it is putting in fine system
of street paving and it is at the front
in all the lines of modern building and
manufacturing. Great mills are here
utilizing the wood products of the coun-
try and also making paper. There is
abundant water power. Thus far there
is but one creamery in the county and
there is room for more and for many adj
ditional farmers.
Rhinelander fell quickly into the idea
of joining the Farmers association.
Mayor Anderle called the people to the
car In hand bill saying Oneida county
is invited to get some of the benefits of
this cars work in the older states. Let
us get in on this car proposition" The
response to this call was most enthus-
iastic and Oneida will be in line. H. S.

Fred r. Austin Tells About Cond1-
tions That Prevail in

| Fred R. Austin of the r. A. Austin
Land company of Bruce was in the city
Tuesday.
Mr.. Austin returned to Bruce from
northern Iowa points last Saturday
where he had visited several places
and had noted conditions carefully.
He says that we are not the only peo-
pie who are contending with too much
water at this time. He tells us that
Iowa is thus troubled to such extent
that the crops are not all planted.
Corn is not in the ground and much OF
the blowing for corn has not been
done.
Mr.. Austin found frost there very
recently. He says that Iowa people
are very much interested in Rusk coun-
ty opportunities and that as soon as
they are able to get their work in hand
he expects lot of them up this way to
look at land. These people are already
convinced of the merits of our county
and are ready buyers. They are men
of means and will proceed to make, use
of their lands.

new HEAD OF SCHOOLS
Prof. Chas. J. Mccormick Is Chosen
to Succeed Prof B. l..
Birkbeck.

The board of education held meet
ing Monday evening and chose Charles
J. Mccormick, now principal OF the
high schools at Trempealeau to succeed
Prof. Birkbeck as principal of schools
in Ladysmith for the ensuing year.
Mr.. Mccormick was reared on farm
near Lancaster where his brothers still
conduct the homestead the parents
having retired to Lancaster.
After attending the local schools,
Prof. Mccormick taught district schools
and entered the Plattville normal
where he completed the full course.
He then taught two years at Living
ston, one year at Patch Grove, when
he went to Trempealeau where he has
been re-engaged during the past five
successive years. He has been so sue
cessful there that Notwithstanding the
fact that, owing to the town being
mostly retired farmers with few child
rem to attend the high scheol, the
course has been extended from three to
four years.
Mr.. Mccormick comes to US with
successful record and the highest
recommends and will undoubtedly be
worthy successor to the decidedly sue
cessful retiring principal.
Mr.. Mccormick will bring his family
here in the fall and we bespeak for him
and his people hearty welcome.

HAS COME TO TINE.
County Judge McGill Decides to Obey
the Law.

COunGy JuuSS MCC1AA 0OCiu0S W OooJ
the Law.
L. E. McGill, who at the present
time is acting as county judge, hates
the News. Some time ago he declared
that he would not sign an order on re-
quest placing a probate notice in the
News.
Requests Of this kind were made and
refused, McGill declaring that he re-
fused knowing full well that he was
violating the law in so refusing. The
penalty is $50 fine and term of i'm
prisonment. In the minds of most
people, such conduct in an official is
anarchistic, in violence of honor as we'll
as law. But it shows what the man is
capable of.
However, the appearance Of a probate
notice in this issue of the News signed
by L. E. McGill indicates a change of
heart or a failure of courage, anyhow a
desirable change-for the public wishes
that it's officials shall be law abiding.
Just how he was brought to time we
are not informed, but it is both suf-
ficient and pleasant to know that the
law is equal to the task of bringing as
big buffer as McGill to time.

will do it justice. The matter IS wen
in hand and will be pushed to compile

Slightly Frosty, Last Night.

Last night was by far the
coldest so far this winter. The
mercury gradually fell, from 9
o'clock last night until this
morning, and as late as 8 a. m.
today the Thermometers reg
istered II degrees below zero,
The cold caused considerable
inconvenience to many about the
city. Many fires went out dur.
ing the night, and several water
pipes were frozen and broken.
However, there was no real
serious results from the cold, as
the average resident of northern
Minnesota expects Jack Frost
to get exceedinly busy right

BOY, IN TEMPER, BURNS
SLEDS, Hay and HORSES
Walker Youth, Angry at His Brother,
Sets Fire to Load
Of Hay.

Walker, MinD., Dec. IA
peculiar case is reported from
Smoky Hollow township, this
county, in which Roy Tibbetts
was severely burned and other
wise injured, owing to an out
burst of temper of his younger
brother, while the father came in
for the loss of load of hay, q
pair of sleds and two fine horses.
The boys we're invariably en-
deavoring to outdo each other.
In this case both were on a load
of hay driving to town. when a
dispute arose as to which should
drive the team. The altercatio.
resulted in the older brother
throwing his brother George off
the load, a distance of some
twelve feet.
The young fellow, now
thoroughly aroused, quickly
picked himself up and hurrying
after the load, approached the
rear and touched off match to
the hay. In an instant the
whole load was aflame, aud the
driver making frantic attempts
to get off the load. He succeeded
doing this, but not before being
quite badly burned.
The horses then took fright
and started down the road on a
mad run with the burning hay,
making a brilliant, but neverthe-
less horrible spectacle, and be-
fore the two boys could catch up
to diseDgage them from the
sleds, both animals were serious
" burned, and later had to be
killed. The bob sleds were en-
tirely consumed. What recep-
tion the boys received from the
father upon returning home is
not known at this time, although
it is easy to conjecture just what
it oughttO have been.

Agent Frater Says Northern Minnesota
Reds Will Not Want This
Year.
GOVERNMENT WARDS HAVE BEEN
PRUDENT WITH THEIR PAYMENTS
Red Lake Indians Especially Well
Provided With Money and
Provisions.

For several years, it has been
noted that the Indians of the
Leech Lake. Cass Lake, Winni-
bigoshish and Red Lake reser.
vations have made complaints to
the Indian authorities at Wash
ington, asserting that they were
in exceedingly Strengthened cir
cumstances from a financial
standpoint and that they were
in great need Of help from Wash
ington that they might tide over
the severe winter months. In
fact, two years ago, Major Scott,
the acting Indian agent, sue
ceeded in securing from the
Indian officials an appropriation
Of money with which to purchase
supplies for the Indians.
These conditions are decidedly
changed, at the present time.
John T. Frater, Indian agent,
states that the Indians of the
Red Lake band are especially
comfortably fixed. They have
been given two large payments
this fall, and will undou btedly be
given another before spring.
While there was some elbow
ing" Of the funds among certain
of the reds, they were not allowed
to gam BILE, and for tue most part
purchased clothingssand supplies
with their funds. Many Of them
received large amounts from
these pay yments and have needed
the advice of Mr.. Frater and
placed the money On deposit for
future use.
The Laech lake Indians are
also in a fair condition. They
have been continually advised by
the agent to "think of the NOR
row" and hus band their small
earnings for the winter months.
While the wild rice crop was
far from being a large one, the
reds were Industrious and real
lied fairly we'll from the sales of
rice. The blueberry season was
productive of good sales, also,
and supplies have been laid up
for this winter.
At the other reservations the
conditions are about the same as
at Leech lake, and the Indians Of
northern Minnesota are in better
condition generally than they
have been for several years.
