there not long ago, there would be a
sentiment strong enough to carry the
proposition, but that was not the case.
Senator A. v. Rieke of Fairfax, was

now suing for divorce, the wife
alleging cruel and inhuman treatment.
While the old soldiers are specu-
latlng on who shall be elected to the
Office oftDepartmen Comm ander of the

excellent man for the place and the old
soldiers in this vicinity would be
pleased to vote for him.

month of December, there we're only
four clear days in the month and the
thermometer touched zero but once, the

that has not been equalled for some
years.
The saw mill which for several wears
past has been owned and operated by
Carl Borchert was recently purchased
by Tauer & Fritsche and the latter

of lumber during the year, mostly for
the farmers who bring the logs to the
mill to have them worked up as they
want them.

board Of health which goes into effect

the business in this city for all the
local undertakers have complied with
the law in all respects.

and a bob sled turned amusement for a
number of young people Saturday
evening. The bob was hitched to the

city. 1t was a sort of experiment on
the part of MIR. Gieseke and it seems
that he demonstrated that the auto was
able to take the place of horses.
Charlie Hopkins of Fairfax was in
the city Monday on business. In speak
ing of the Fl. Ridgely park proposition,
in which he is greatly interested, he
said that he was afraid with the present
condition of affairs at Washington, the
project would be sbelved for sometime
but he hoped that it would be finally
pushed to conclusion before many
years. He has no doubt but that favor
able action will be secured from the
government in time.
Max Reinhart is in receipt Of copy
of the Japan Times, an English paper
published at Tokyo. It's crowded with
advertising, showing that the mer-
chants of that city are alive, and there
is considerable news matter in it,
though in comparison with the papers
of this country it would be rated even
below the Brown County Journal. The
paper was sent to Mr.. Reinhart by a
friend of his who is serving on one of
the batt1eships in the Japan sea.
