A The numbers consisted of piano duets, pam

drills and. In fact. just such variety as might
be found on the 'last day Of school" almost
anywhere in our land. And the young Indian
boys and girls seemed really to enjoy the pub

and joined heartily in the choruses. Boys

remain on the reservation. and return in some

year an order was issued forbidding the chill

thought that the return to old associations was
denoralizing. So great was the uproar raised
among the Indians that 1t became necessary
to rescind the order. 80

Of the efforts made by the WISCONSIN insurance

ure requiring an annual portionment Of surplus

fishing the policyholders right to vote directly,
either in person or by mail, there was no such
thing known In Wisconsin as an insurance lobby.

In 1885,. the system Of numbering stores and
residents in this city Is causing much incon.
venience. Instead Of starting the numbers with
the beginning OF the block, start was made
before the block was reached and as result
the numbers Of every building in the city are
just one block wrong. There is every probability
that the council will cause the error to be
rectihed at once. Mail carriers are complaining
about the absence Of numbers on the residences
and 1t is likely that the council will make the

take steps to see that every house IS provided
