he asks $75 per acre for 1t and they

Butte Gazette: The saddest occur.
renee of the holiday season that has
come to our notice is the drowning of
the little two.year.old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Chas Hoerger. living near Baker.
II seems that Mrs. llOerger and Mrs.
Doty are sisters and that Mrs. Hoerger
and the little son were spending Il
portion of the holiday season at the
Duty home near Mills, in Keya Paha
county, when in some manner the lit
tie fellow got out unknown to- the old
or people. Immediately he was missed
search was instituted for him and his
little tracks were discovered leading
to large hole which had been cut in
the ice of the Kcya Paha river for
water purposes within a few yards of
the DOty home. Alarm was sent out
by telephone and in very short time
many men and women assembled on
the river bank willing and anxious to
lend assistance. The little body was
finally found under the ice of the river
where it had drifted with the current.
The father was sent for and the dis
tracted relatives brought the little
corpse to Butte where it was prepared
for burial. Funeral services took
place from the M. E. church, at 1
o'clock today, Rev. Horton officiating.

Work on the reconstruction of the

intensely cold wave that swept over
this section of the country, but now
that things are warming up again. 1t
is not at all improbable that the work

prospect that the new wing will be
ready for occupancy on contract time,
next June.
Already sixty-nve feet of tunnel

finished on this tunnel, which leads
from the new west wing to the main

In Shirt Sleeves at New Years.
A phenomenal record was made by
| the wOrkmen, carpenters and masons,
between Christmas and New Years
| this year. In spite of the fact that
this is the coolest season of the year,
the workmen all worked out of doors
all day long in their shirt sleeves, just
as though it had been sweltering
season in July, and they found that
| they were not at all uncomfortably
| cool.
Already the superstructure on the
| bay window in the new wing is up to
grade and ready for stone work. The
dining room work has also gone to
this point.
The work on the wing amounts to
reducing the big building one story in
height, and in installing a big bay win
dow, dining room, tunnel and the
| like. 1t will hold about 120 people
| when completed. Contractor Worth
| is very popular with his thirty men,
as he hires Norfolk help exclusively
where possible and does not send away
| from this city until he is forced to by
| lack of other workmen.
The construction on the new wing
will, it is said, be much superior to
that in the old building.

Financial Condition.

A statement of the financial Condi-
tion of the club was on exhibition dur
ing the time the polls were open, show
ing the amount of money received by
the club and from what sources, the
amount paid out and the amount on
hand. II was seen from the statement
that Secretary Mathowson has drawn
n salary of 500 for the year. instead
of S25 n month, which is the amount
authorized by the club year ago.
MIR. Mathowson declined to accept that
amount of salary, which would have
figured $500 for the year, and 1t was
with considerable persuasion that he
was induced to take the 500, which
covers his Office expense rs well as
his salary. 1t must be admitted that
he earned all he received The amount
on hand In the treasury at the present
time is $3.50 which will give good
start for n strong years work. The

GRAVE CHARGES ARE MADE
Petition for Removal of a Jackson
County, Coi'mnassi'o'ner 81
fore the Governor.

The application of W. g. Dunlap
for the rem val from office of County
Commissioner H. G. Anderson, of
jackson county, was presented to
Gov. johnson today by State Sena'
tor Somerville. A commissioner will
be namt d to take testimony and the
final hearing will be given ip the
matter Wednesday, Aug. 1. This
trouble arose out of the proceedings
for the removal of the county seat
from Jackson to Lakefeld. The Pc
tition charges that Anderson forged
names to the petition for the removal;
that he solicited T. E. Elness to re-
move his name from the petition by
the offer of bribe of $40; that he
used his influence to defeat the Pc
tition, and that the petitioners we're
never given fair hearing before tn"
county board.
The above frcm the St. Paul Dis.
patch gives the latest move in the
county seat fight over in Jackson
county. Mr.. Anderson is chairman
of the county board, a leading citizen
of jackson county and We scarcely
believe he can be guilty of the offense

IMPORTANT
CAPTURE
Sheriff fauskee Arrests Youthful
- Forger Wanted in
Illinois.
The Offender was Captured at
Brewster Some Time ago
But Escaped.

Last Saturday Sheriff Fauskee
added another important arrest. to
the long line already to his credit
when he secured the person of
Ralph Nelson, wanted at Tuscola,
ILL.,, on charge of forgery.
A month or more ago Nelson
appeared at Brewster. where he
formerly resided, and the officers at
that place arrested him upon re-
quest Of the Illinois authorities and
placed him in the village lookup.
During the night Nelson made his
escape and has successfully eluded
his would be captors until last Sat
urday when Sheriff Fauskee arrested
him south of Adrian, where he was
working on farm.
Nelson who is but twenty years
of age, stated that he went direct to
Adrian after his escape from the
Brewster calaboose, and had been
working in that vicinity ever since,
taking care not to exhibit himself
in the, towns. he relied upon a
general belief that he had left this
part Of the state to secure him free
dom, and his theory worked we'll
for time.
Sheriff J. S. Baker of Tuscola,
ILL.,, arrived this week with re-
QUESTION papers and took Nelson
back to stand trial for his offense.
