Andrew Berry and the Governor.

About twenty six years ago Andrew
Berry and James O. Davidson were room
mates at Boscobel At that time young
Davidson was tailor and he made the
coat Andrew was married in. Their
paths in life led in different directions
and in all these years they had never
met until Governor Davidson stopped
here few weeks ago to make short
political speech. Upon returning home
from his tour, the governor found time
to write his old friend few words as
follows:
"My Dear Friend:- was glad to meet
you again at Edgerton and to once more
learn your whereabouts. | had lost
track of you entirely, and do not like to
lose my old friends. How we'll remem-
Der what we went through when we
lived at Boscobel as young men. 1t has
been good long time since those days
and many changes have taken place in
our lives. If you ever come to Madison
shall be very glad to have you call on
me at the. executive office, where you
will find a hearty welcome, as do all my
countrymen and acquaintances gener-
ally"

led by Miss Dagna Nord, flower girl and
Master Julian Bjoin, ring bearer, who
bore the ring upon a rosebud, followed
by the ribbon girls, Misses Clara Bjoin,
Alba Olsen, Sophia Nelson and Emma
Frank, and then the bridal couple.
They halted beneath canopy of smi-
lax and carnations where Rev. Nord of
the Luthern church was in waiting and
pronounced the words which made them
man and wife.
The ceremony was witnessed by about
seventy five relatives and friends, among
whom were the following out Otto wn
guests MIR. and Mrs. J. 0. Henderson
of Edgerton, father and mother of the
groom, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Skinner of
Edgerton, brother-in-law and sister of

The Township Library books for the
First District of Dane county have been
selected by Supt. Sylvanus Ames and
are now in the hands of the various town
and village clerks. These officers are
charged with the duty of distributing
| them to the school district clerks, who
in turn place them in the schools. The
order this year represents an outlay of
over $500, and comprises 1,525 volumes.
The children in the schools will find
these books source of pleasure and
profit, and teachers should be active in
securing the books promptly, and in
using them properly. Teachers will send
a list OF the books received to the super
intendent as soon as delivered to them
This will insure correct delivery.
"A burglar entered the Bell telephone
exchange at Jefferson Monday night and
secured small change amounting to less
than S., missing nearly 5000 in another
part of the room. The night operator
was awakened little after midnight by
a masked man entering the room through
the window She screamed and then
the burglar grabbed her by the shoulder
and struck her over the head, knocking
her unconscious. When she recovered
consciousness about half an hour after,
her hands and feet were tied. She made
her way to the keyboard and cabled up
the superintendent, who entered the
room, as had the burglar, by means of
the water conductor, and released her.
Owing to the exchange being located
over the Farmers and Merchants bank
it was first thought an attempt was
made to rob that institution, but there
is nothing to show that such was the in
tenton of the burglar or burglars.

Beet Sugar Factory to Open.

The extensive Improvements at the
GAINESVILLE beet sugar factory which have
been made during the summer have now
been completed, and the big plant now
stands ready to receive the crop of beets
from the five thousand acres of beets
which have been planted by it's growers
distributed over fourteen counties. The
plant is in excellent shape and Supt.
Carrick feels sure that the plant will
double it's capacity as compared with
previous years. The company will COM
mence receiving beets on Sept. 10Th at
all the larger stations in Rock and Dane
counties. and will follow up at the other
stations as soon as the beets are fully
matured. The company intends to re-
ceive the beets as fast as the railroad
companies will furnish the growers cars,
and has prepared everything for as
prompt handling of the shipments as
possible and expects with the assistance
of the good will and CO operation of the
growers to prove this years experiment
of weighing and taring OF beets at all OF
it's one hundred and fifty stations sue
cess. Owing to the wet weather in the
latter part of August and the beginning
of September the samples which were
first taken from the fields in Rock coun-
ty and tested in the local factory showed
rather low per cent of sugar and purity
and in general indicated that the full
maturity of the beets was somewhat de-
layed. 1t was, therefore, deemed ad-
visable not to recommend very early
harvesting Of the beets, and although
the last taken samples have improved
considerable in sugar contents and pur-
ity the company still advises the grow
ers to be sure to give the beets full time
to grow and fully mature, and not to be-
gin harvesting until the maturity is
plainly indicated by the leaves turning
yellow. The machinery will probably be
put in motion the first of October. From
then until the first of next February
some four hundred men will be en-
ployed. The chemist for the plant has
been appointed by the director ct the
Wisconsin experimental station, per an
agreement between the factory manage
ment and the growers. A. A. Towner OF
Lansing, Mich, is the man and he will
work under the direct supervision OF the
chemical department of the station

was about the early French In Canada,
and my eye fell on copy Of draw

attack by the native allies Of the
French, the Algonquins. on fort held
by Iroquois. The Algonquins advanced
through showers of arrows under
shields nearly as tall as themselves,
like doors with rounded tops. Now,
you may see exactly the same sort of
shields in a picture Of lion hunt, in

blade of a dagger foune by DR.. Schlie-
mann In "the grave Of Agamemnon."

CormOrants.

Cormorants are far the largest and
most striking in appearance Of our COM
mon English sea fowl. A male cor
morant is yard long and very strong
and heavy, and, though more quaint
than beautiful, whether flying, diving
or sitting on the rocks or buoys, 1t Is
a far more interesting creature than
the sea gull-a wonderful instance Of
adaptation of form to special needs and
Of permanence Of type enduring from
remote ages, for the fossil cormorant
hardly differs from those which are
now fishing from the cliffs in which
their petrifled ancestors are imbedded.
Our common great black cormorant"
is not only the most representative type
Of his family, but link with the in.
habltants Of the shallow seas Of both
the old and new worlds. He Is found
throughout Europe, In north Africa,
Egypt and the greater part of Asia, In
eastern North America and, q little
changed by distance, In New Zealand
and Australia. Lastly he is the only
bird except the hawks and falcons
which is trained to assist man in the
capture Of living prey, and in this vo-
cation he is Of all birds, by sense,
memory and affection, incomparably
the best.-LOndon Spectator.

The Fiddle Drill.

The fiddle drilp is one Of the Oldest
stonecutting tools in existence. 1t is
said to antedate Greek sculpture and
is In use today in about the same form
as 1t was 1900 years ago. As Its pane
implies, Its action resembles fiddle.
The drill is of two pieces. In one hand
a carver holds the drill stock, which Is
like carpenters brace, except that It
is straight instead Of having a crank.
In the other hand he holds the bow"
which is strung with brass wire and
which is given turn around the drill
stock. To use the drill the carver
places the drill stock against his breast
holding 1t with his left hand, and with
his right he draws the bow back ard
forth, fiddle fashion. This imparts a
rotary motion to the drill stock, and
the drill is ground to cut In either way
1t turns. The fiddle drill Is used in the
finest work, In crevices where the
sculptor could not reach with his chisel
and hammer without endangering the
carving

A very curious fact is the impossible
ity Of moving your eye while examin-
Ing the reflection Of that organ in
mirror. 1t is really the most movable
part Of the face. Yet II you hold your
head fixed and try to move your eye
while watching 1t you cannot do it
even the one-thousandth Of an inch. OF
course IL you look at the reflection Of
the nose or any other part Of your face
your eye must move to see it. But the
strange thing is that the moment You
endeavor to perceive the motion the
eye is fixed. This is one of the reasons
why persons expression as seen by
himself in a glass is quite different
from what It is when seen by Others
