lNHUMAN TREATMENT.
A Little Girl Shows Evidences of
Parental Abuse.

Upon information furnished by the
chief of police the local humane society,
through its agent, Mrs. w. G. Dickens,
caused Ella, the nine years old adopted
daughter of MIR. and Mrs. Charles
Rehfeld to be taken away from them
last Thursday The police found the
child eating table leavings out of a
garbage box at the rear of one of our
hotels, and upon investigation found
that the child had been subjected to
revolving abuse After being removed
from her foster parents the little girl
was taken to the home of Mr.. and Mrs
Dickens and an examination made of
her 1t was found that her body was
one mass of sores from head to foot,
caused, she said, by her parents whip
ping her. She said that upon the slight
est provocation they would strip her
clothes from her body and then whip
her with cato tails, beginning
at the feet and going upward, until her
whole body was covered with welts.
She has suffered this abuse for some
time. On top of this, it is alleged, the
parents have given the girl an INSULT
cient supply of food and she is little
more than skeleton. This caused her
to seek food out of garbage boxes. The
family live over the store of Anton
Schuetz and neighboring people have
been in the habit of feeding number
of cats out of dish in the alley back of
the store. On several occasions the lit
tie girl was noticed picking up and de-
vouring the victuals the cats had left.
They supposed she was half witted and
not knowing of her alleged treatment
the matter was not reported.
The family moved here about five
months ago from Milwaukee, the hus-
band securing employment in the Cur
tis IL Yale factory. Little is known of
their past history. They claim to have
adopted the little girl some years ago
and an effort will be made to prove
whether their claim is correct or not.
After being taken to the Dickens home
the girl was found to be suffering great
ly from her wounds and was also quite
sick. The judge gave orders that
she be removed to St. Mary's hospital,
which was done. There, lotions we're
applied and she was bandaged in cot
ton. Application will be made to the
court to have the girl removed from her
foster parents, and the application will
be heard soon. The parents were ar
rested Friday but their hearing was ad-
iourned to next Thursday. A photo
grapher has prepared number of pic
lures of the girl, showing the marks of
the lash, which will be used as evidence
against her parents.

BOY FOUND.

Thursday afternoon last Wilbur Min
nebrocker, who had been missing from
home. was found at the home of an
aunt in the town of Pike Lake This is
the boy whom the PILOT mentioned last
week as having been turned out of the
house by his parents The hoy is elev-
en- years of age and it appears attended
Sunday school on Oct. 18th. He re-
turned home from church ralher late
and for this offense it is alleged his par
ents turned hIm out. Although they
did NOT know his whereabouts after his
dismissal from home, it is further al
legged that they made no efforts to find
him until the neighbors called the at
tention of the humane society and the
police officers to the matter, and pun
ishment was threatened. A sister OF
the boy got him some extra clothing out
of the house and he told her he was
going to the home of his aunt This
the parents learned Tuesday and they
drove down and got the boy. Prosecu-
ton of the parents, which was threat
ened, will in all probability be dropped,
unless there is a recurrence of mistreat-

KILLED A SHERIFF.

Conductor d. Daniels, who runs a
train through here daily on the St. Paul
road, participated Thursday afternoon
in the capture of a burglar and murder
er. 1t appears that robbery was com.
mitted in New Lisbon and sheriff Wun-
derly, of Juneau county, was on the
lookout for tramp, whom it was sus-
pected had committed the crime In
company with Ned Taylor, a rural mail
carrier, he searched the st. Paul freight
yards and came upon the tramp, whom
he commanded to throw up his hands.
Instead of doing so the tramp pulled a
revolver out of ihis pocket and began
firing. He shot the sheriff through the
stomach which caused wound which
soon proved fatal. Taylor jumped and
caught hold of the tramp but received a
bullet through the throat, which it is
thought will prove fatal.
A train crew which was making up a
train in the yards started after the
tramp who tried to escape and succeed
ed in capturing him. When searched
two revolvers were found on his person.

is evidently crazed from the excessive
use of liquor and cocaine He resided
here with relatives for about five
months, nine years ago and is known
to quite a number of our people At

young man. If the charge of murder is
proved against him, as it undoubtedly
will, he will either be hanged or spend
the rest of his days in prison. 1t is said
that his father gave the information
which caused the Chicago officers to
suspect that he might come here

trict, but slightly handicapped by loca
ton. Some of these properties are
owned by local parties, others are
divided between local and outside par,
ties, while still others have been taken
over entirely by outsiders. There is q
decided tendency, just now. toward a
majority of the good properties being
bought by American capital which is
backed by men of experience, and this
fact promises well for the mining in
dustry in Cobalt, for, the manner in
which some of the mines have been
handled and are still being handled is
deplorable in the extreme.
To those who are OF a speculative
turn of mind Cobalt offers good oppor-
tunities. Cobalt stocks arc at present
and promise to be a good Investment.
Within the past few months Nipissing
stock has advanced from So to 20, Nc
Kinley- Darragh from 81 to SO 10,
Buffalo from so cents to 50 90, Foster
from ST. 40 to S30S, University from $40
to IS per share These are fair ex-
amples of the general tendency of the
reliable stocks on the maket. The days
of wildcat schemes in Cobalt are over,
and both stocks and properties are
more being bought on their merits,
Furthermore, the mines act contains
certain provisions and requirements
which greatly aid the investor. For
example, as Mr. Bullock states it,
1.-The provincial government will not
give prospector title to his ground
until an official investigation has been
made and the inspector is satisfied that
the property actually possesses valuable
mineral in place." MIR Bullock makes
the statement that out of one hundred
aud ninety-three claims inspected last
spring only seven were passed by the
inspector. The desirability of prop
erty as prospect depends, of course
on the location, on the formation in
which the vein is found, and on certain
indications which have previously led
to the discovery of valuable mineral
The mines which are mentioned above
are, for the mosU part, in what is known
as the lower Huronian formation and,
/ think are all situated in the township
of Coleman, so that there is naturally a
better market for a Coleman passed
claim than any other although many
very promosing propieters lie outside
of this zone and in an entirely different
formation.
shall close with statement on the
Accessibility of Cohalt" copied from
Mi. Bullock's pamphlet:
''Few mining camps on the North
American continent can be reached
more comfortably than Cobalt. From
any direction the traveller can connect,
at Toronto or North Bay, with Pull
man sleeper that will land him at the
Silver City. There are two trains day
between Cobalt and North Bay in
either direction The latter city is the
junction of The Grand Trunk, The c..
p. r., and The Temiskaming and
Northern Ontario Railways The L. &
N. o. now pierces the wilderness for a
distance of seventy five miles beyond
the Silver City, ard above it is vast
aera of rich agricultural and timber
lands, reaching north to the shores of

WILL FIGHT NEW COUNTY.

The proposition to make new county
from the northern tier of townships in
Clark county, the southern tier of
townships in Taylor county and half
dozen townships in western Marathon
county, is being agitated in a desultory
way. Who is behind the proposition is
pretty hard to determine, but it does
not seem to meet with much encour-
agement in any of the three named
counties. The new county would be a
very nice one, and as Owen would be
the logical center, the origin of the
scheme might be traced there.
However, Wausau and Neillsville
will put up strenuous fights to prevent
the splitting up, and Athens and the
surrounding country, that is included
in the new county plans, will put up a
hard tussle to prevent being annexed
The taxpayers in the northwestern
part of Marathon county have been
helpiLg to build up the county, nd
they certainly would object to going
into a new county to help build new
county buildings, etc. They started at
the bottom with Marathon county, and
now to begin all over again would
hardly be satisfactory scheme for
them.
1t is true that Athens people are at
a disadvantage in railroad connections
with Wausau, but to belong to a new
county would not remedy matters
much. They can afford 10 suffer a
little inconvenience when the matter of
the new county buildings stares them
in the face as an alternative. 1t looks
now as if the projectors of this new
county have bitten off more than they
could chew in carrying their scheme
through the legislature. Athens Rec

ONE YEAR IN PRISON.

From the Badger state Banner, pub
lished in Black River Falls, we learn
that ione, L. Mauer, was last week
sentenced to serve one year in the state
reformatory for fraudulently represent
ing himself as being employed by the
above named paper and securing money
thereby. Mauer is the partner of E.
r. Dean who visited this section last
summer and worked the same scheme.
They went to MoSinee wnere Dean called
upon numerous business men. After
exhibiting a diagram purporating to
show that large number of Wausau's
business men had entered upon an ad-
vertising scheme in the PMoT, he So
licited advertising. The scheme was
one which would not be countenanced
by this paper for minute nor by any
reputable paper. He secured a number
of business men in Mosinee for space,
collected money and issued receipts
therefore. In the villages of Taylor
and HiNon near Black River Falls
Deans partner, Mauer, worked the
scheme and collected total of 50 be-
fore being arrested. 1t appears that
they had two schemes-the above and
one to sNindle people on a fake patent
right proposition. In jackson county
they changed games, Dean taking ur
the patent righs swindle, but got scared
out when Mauer was arrested. He did
not have time to dupe anyone and there,
fore no charge was brought against him
The patent right scheme was worked
in the village of Moon, this county, one
farmer being caught. The fact that
they had worked in Mosinee, claiming
to represent the PFLoT was offered in
evidence in the trial of Mauer, but be
cause of legal techuiealitieS, was ruled
out.

BEHAVED PRETTY WELL.

The kids this year, both large and
small, were fairly well behaved on Hal
lowe'en night. This is perhaps due to
the fact that parents are seeing the
error of letting their children engage in
such rowdyism and that the children
knew the police force had taken extra
precautions TO stop the destruction of
property.
Fewer windows were soaped than
usual and less articles carried away.
AS result of their children's froiic that
night the st. Paul Ry. officials will call
upon certain parties to pay for a win
dow demolished in coach standing
near the freight depot. The boys are
known, for they were recognized as
they were running away, by local rail
way employees.
A number of people would like to
know where missing articles are. The
editor of this family paper is poorer by
one porch sottee. Henry Binzer the
barber is looking for his red, white and
blue pole sign.
1t is reported that two elderly maidens
of doubtful age had an experience that
night-at first exciting and exhilerating,
then disappointing. They were sitting
together discussing the prospects of
getting husband, and gasped with de-
light when at about ten O'Clock the
door bell rang, and, expecting a male
caller, they rushed for the door When
the door was opened man fell into
their arms and there was lively tussle
as both claimed the visitor. When the
light was turned on they found they
had been fighting over dummy the
kids had placed there. With a sigh of
disappointment they went back to their
knitting. 1t was the trick of mischiev
GUS boys, possessed of original ideas.

SAVE THE GEESE.

Far IN the night, it Is true. I heard
what seemed the weird and lonely cry
ing of flock Of Hawaiian geese in
fight overhead, hut I do not know
what startled them. Maybe they had
wicked dreams I know that thew were
Hawaiian geese, for I both heard and
saw the same flock next day-the sec
| ond flight OF these rare birds seen on
the trip. The first lot we saw on the
trail between the Volcano House and
Humuula, the old Shipman trail. They
few low, and very heavily, a flight as
unlike that Of wild geese as anything
well could be. But these birds. too.
are passing away. It IS a great pity.
Perhaps the Legislature will aggregate
enough wisdom, before they are all
gone, to save the very few that will
then remain.

not have TO abuse ANYBODY else. So

got all the water in the barrels. That

and that the Postmaster carried at his
saddlehorn. He refused to carry a tin
cup, saying, with some heat, that he
was no sheep-herder. whereupon Jimmie
took it, meekly remarking:
~ would sooner be sheep-herder
than a sheep
Later in the day the Postmaster took
the first drink from that cup.
