W0QDCHUCK DAY,

Friday next, Feb. I'd, is the day
which, according to an old superstition,
determines the length of the remainder
of winter, such determination being
made by the sun being visible or in
visible. In other words it is ground
hog day.
If the day blows fair and clear,
There'H be two winters in the year"
So says the old humbug adage. If
the woodchuck sees his shadow he
crawls back into his hole to remain six
weeks longer. If be sees no shadow he
stays out. That ground hog story is
about as reliable as a Waterbury watch
and as about as truthful as the yarn
spun to innocent children at Christmas
time about St. Nick coming down the
chimney fiue. Both are ridiculous and
nonsensical. February has several
other days that are noted and observed
by people-Lincoln's birthday. St. Val
entines day, Washington's birthday. etc.
From the sample of winter weather we
have had so far it would appear that
winter had just begun, or, Judging by
the past few days, that spring had begun
The fact is that the greater part of win
ter is past.

Lewis, or of Orrin Lord. Mrs Lewis,
who is a claimant for pension, former
lay lived at Wausau, but was committed
to the Northern asylum and discharged
therefrom Dec 81, 1905. The records
of the hospital show that she had a SON
in-law by the name of Orrin Lord and
her former neighbors at Wausau say
they think Lord lived in the vincinity
OF Stevens Point Information of the
present address of Mrs. Lewis or Mr.
Lord should be sent to the postmaster

Dear Sir:
Have just finished reading last weeks
PILOT and | assure you it is very in
teresting reading, more especially
when one is over thousand miles
from home
The weather has been very pleasant
in this section, rather too warm for
comfort at times.
The people are getting their gardens
in shape for spring planting. in fact
some have already planted their sweet
"Taters."
The frogs are giving US open air con-
certs and it will not be long before the
most entertaining mosquito will make
his appearance.
This point is near the center of the
Louisiana long leaf pine timber belt.
laundering is the principal, in fact, al
most the only industry.

Ry. This road traverses the Louisiana
timber belt from north to south and
along its line are located good many
mills, some of them saving over one
hundred thousand feet per day, of
eleven hours.
There are no cities of any size along
this line between Shreveport, La, and
Beaumont, Texas, a distance of over
two hundred miles Each mill owner
has located his saw mill right at his
timber and thereby created small towns
five or six miles apart all along this
line.
The forest in this section is immense.
there is timber enough to keep these
mills saving for twenty years or more.
There is but little farming done here.
The soil is of rather poor quality, and,
too, 1t would take a different class of
people, than the natives here, to ever
make any great showing at most any
enterprise. The larger mill companies
are experimenting with peach raising
and also clearing. large tracts of cut
over lands for farming and no doubt
Will endeavOr to sell their land to
settlers after the timber is cut.
| shall probably remain in the south
Tor several months. Yours truly,

YOUNG MAN KILLED.

Tuesday afternoon last while Henry
LaPorte was engaged in unloading
logs from cars in the Brooks & Ross
Lumber Co. IS yards in Schofeld he m ct
with a fatal accident. A car was being
unloaded at about the hour of 800
The binding chains had been removed
but the logs remained on the car. Mr.
LaPorte walked across the skidway
parallel with the car and when he had
nearly reached the opposite side the
logs began to roll off the car. The
result was that he was caught beneath
them and his body badly crushed.
Those working with him soon removed
the logs that covered him and he was
taken to his home in Schofeld His
injuries were such that there was no
hope for his recovery. At about 900
O'Clock that evening he breathed his
last.
He was a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
LaPorte who live between Schofeld
"a Kelly and was nearly twenty-six
years of age. He was born and reared
in this county and was a young man
highly spoken Of by those VINO knew
him. He was married in this city a
year and half ago to Miss Hedwig
Weiland, by whom he is survived as he
is by child three weeks old and his
parents, five brothers and one sister.
The funeral was held Saturday morn
ing from st. Mary's church, this city,
and was very largely attended He
was member of Co. G which organiza-
ton attended his funeral in body.

KNOWN HERE.

Merrill was in the throes of sensa-
ton last n ight when man answering to
the name of Richard Fritsch and presum-
ably hailing from Oshkosh, was arrest
ed at the roller skating rink by Police
man Wendt as the notorious Constan-
tine, wanted in Chicago for the murder
of Mrs. Gentry. The fellow was taken
to the city Jail and this morning given
a searching examination Although
resembling in a startling degree the
Constantine described by tne papers,
the chief-of police allowed him to go
as the evidence was conclusive enough
that he was not the man wanted. The
mans actions were erratic enough to
make one suspect he came from Osh-
kosh without having mentioned the fact.
He is rather a handsome man and was
extremely well dressed. He arrived
yesterday afternoon between two and
three o'clock on freight and proceed
ed to the Badger hotel where he asked
about dinner. Being informed that
dinner could not be served at that hour,
he came over and registered under the
name given above at the Lincoln.
Later he visited the drug store of
Drinker and Fowler and there gave his
name as Horn, and another place of
residence and told an entirely different
story. After abstracting box of candy
he disappeared, to be arrested later in
the evening on the charge of numbering
Mrs Gentry"
The above is taken from the
Merrill Advocate. The young man
mentioned is known in this city
and visited here the day before going
to Merrill He also has a brother
living here. The young mans queer
actions at Merrill cannot be explained
by his friends here.

AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL NOTES,

j. A. Bonell, instructor in manual
training, who was feeling unwell, went
to his home in Menomonie Thursday to
recuperate.
Principal e. B. Johns and class of
boys visited the F. Rietbrock farm near
Athens, Wednesday and made an in
spection of the Helendale herd of
Guernseys for the purpose of giving the
boys practical lesson in stock judg-
ing. Four more of Mr.. Rietbrock's
herd are finishing milk test Fifteen
were entered in the test a year ago.
Three were dropped and twelve have
or will complete the test, two so far
having established new worlds records
in their respective classes Mr.. Riet-
brock undoubtedly has the finest herd
of Guernseys in the state.
Principal r. B. Johns visited district
No 4, town OF Stettin, Friday evening,
where he conducted a meeting for the
advertisement of the school. Saturday
evening he visited Dist. No. /, town of
Reitbrock, for the same purpose.
Twelve more such meetings will be
held before spring, providing the roads
hold out. There has been a better at
tendance at these meetings this winter
than usual, crowded school houses be-
ing the rule. Messrs. Johns and Bon
ell do not talk wholly on the school,
but also give the farmers valuable in
formation on farm subjects which in
terest them-thus interesting them in
the school as well. Mr.. Bonell will at
some time in the near future construct
model of a stable for stock, which will
then be photographed for stereopticon
lantern slide and the view used to
illustrate the construction of a stable
which will give plenty of ventilation.
Farmers realize that their stock needs
fresh air, but as a rule they do not
know how to construct a we'll venti-
lated stable.
Greater work is being accomplished
in the school this winter in all depart

On Thursday afternoon Miss Conley's
class visited the meat market of the
Gilham q Rick Co., where beef was
cut up and explanation made of the
table uses of each cut. 1t was a valu-
able lesson in "beefology." Such les
sons are valuable not only to the
woman who cooks but to those who
must ''stand" for the cooking. The
average girl when she is called upon
to do her own cooking, as she must
some day do, is apt to select steak

At present the Western Union Tele-

AT present the Western Union Tele-
graph Co, has 50 call boxes in operation
in the city, under the franchise granted
last summer to the American District
Telegraph Co. These boxes have given
goodservice to the public besides increas-
ing the revenues of the office At present
70 alarm boxes have been contracted
for and perhaps by spring, when the
latter system will be installed, 100
boxes will be in use. The installa-
ton of the latter system is expensive
but the service, while more efficient, is
a saving to manufacturers in the wages
paid night watchmen and in the reduc-
ton in insurance premiums.

Charlotte Hannahs, of kenosha, Wis,
on February 1st. They will make their

other officers who are to be chosen at
the election to be held on April 3, 1906.
1t may also be we'll to call attention
to the fact that in the appointment of
the election officers, the mayor must
appoint two inspectors, one clerk and
one ballot clerk from the party which
received the largest vote in the pre-
cinct at the last general election, and
the party receiving the next largest
vote shall be entitled to one inspector,
one clerk and one ballot clerk.
Very respectfully,

has received from the attorney general
an opinion regarding city committees.
The attorney general holds that under

committees, he states, shall be done by
ward committees which shall be elected
at the September primaries There
will therefore be no change made until
next fall.
