SUPERIOR SEA SALOON.
LIQUOR MEN MAY PURCHASE THE
CITY OF TRAVERSE.
Gambling Boat to Come to Head of Lakes
to Relieve Sunday Beer
Drought.

SUPERIOR, Wis, June 24.-[Spe-
cial. THAT famous boat, the City of
Traverse, now operated by the gambling
tars of Chicago, may come to the head
of the lakes to relieve the beer drought
on Sundays.
The City of Traverse has had va
ried career from that of a dignitied and
respectable passenger steamer on the
Great Lakes down to hauling Chicago
sports out into the lake where they can
play the ponies without being disturbed
by Mayor Busse or Chief Shippy.
Now it is proposed to turn the gam
bling boat in floating liquor emporium
which will glide about in the harbor of
Superior on Sunday with enough booze"
aboard to last the thirsty sports until
Monday morning.
This is how it all comes about. Supe-
rior has had the Sunday lid" on for sew
eral months, but as the Duluth saloons
have been open right along the thirsty
have experienced no distress until the
last couple of Sundays, both Duluth and
Superior now being dry. Saloonmen
have been figuring on a floating saloon
to be anchored out in the lake with eN-
cursion boats running to it and negotla-
tions are now on with the owners OF the
City Of Traverse for that purpose.

Bad Fright to Little Girl-Bruin
Shot by H. E. Wygant.

BARRON, Wis, June 25.-[ Special
Screams of frightened little girl who,
on her way home along the edge Of town
was confronted by huge bear, speedily
brought forth a dozen men armed with
shotguns and rifles, one of whom killed
the animal within the town limits.
When the girl and the bear met at the
edge of clearing the surprise was mu-
tual The girl was frightened, but not
so with the bear The girl Immediately
took the back track, leaving in her wake
a series of piercing shrieks. The animal
made no attempt at pursuit, however,
but continued it's search for something
edible and the slaughter house nearby
attracted attention.
Meanwhile the girl flew in the direction
of home screaming "Be-a-r,' with all
the strength of her young lungs Har-
vey e. Wygant was one of the first TO
be met by her and he arrived IL the VI
cinity of the slaughter house in advance
of a dozen men who had hastily grabbed
their guns and followed the directions OF
the girl When Wygant came to the
slaughter house he went around the
building and came face to face with the
animal Two shots dropped Bruin in his
tracks. The bear weighed 200 pounds:

occurrence to see bears inside OF town,
but this is the first shot out OF the WOODS
for some time.

OXFORD NEEDS MONEY.
University Now Too Poor to Supply
Proper Training in Some Fields.

The first public act of Lord Curzon as
chancellor OF the University of Oxford
was the publication of an appeal asking
for 81 100000 to meet the pressing needs
of the university, among which he enum-
crates the promotion Of modern and
scientific studies and the maintenance OF
the BodIeian library.
In many departments of science, he de-
clares Oxford is unable, for want of nee
essary funds and appliances, to support
q scientific basis for practical work, and
an electrical laboratory and provision for
giving scientific training for the practical
profession of engineering are greatly
needed
He says that the gift of Cecil Rhodes,
the greatest benefaction which the uni
versity has received of late years, has
brought with it burden, adding, as it
does. 200 men from all parts of the
British empire, from the United States
and from Germany to the body OF I'M
dergraduates, and imposing upon the
university the necessity of offering the
newcomers al THAT is best i'll teaching,
equipment and study.
TO Americans it would seem as if this
appeal from an institution so venerable,
so venerated, so intimately associated
not only with English scholarship, but
with English literature and English his
tory, would meet with prompt response.
Unfortunately, SO far neither the uni
versities nor the cathedrals have been
able to make up by popular gifts for the
great losses they have sustained by the
shrinkage of incomes caused by the tall
of rents during the last generatlon.-Out-

ELECTROCUTED ON POLE
Lineman at Kenosha Meets Horrible
Death by Shock of 220o Volts
Helper Shows Great Heroism.

KENOsHA, Wis, June 24.-[spe-
cial. l-Charles Bipe, a lineman in the
employ of the Wisconsin Telephone COM
pany, met an awful death here this
morning at the top of a thirty-foot pole
by stepping on feed wire of the Ke-
nosha Gas and Electric company's sys-
tenn.
James Bartha, his helper, was terribly
burned, but showed heroism in ascend
ing to the top of the pole and holding
the unconscious Bipe from falling until
assistance came.
Bipe had called to Bartha, warning him
of the presence of the live wire at about
the moment the latter grasped it with
one hand. Bartha turned to ask Bipe
for aid and discovered that the man had
also come in contact with the wire but
in manner more dealy than in his own
case, and was unconscious at the top of
the pole. Despite his own bad injuries,
he held the others body until he could
summon help. The shock had been too
been almost instantly killed. He came
from Lancaster, o., and was unmarried.

of the 1909 convention of the conference
of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan of the

morning.
Many delegates favored Incorporating
the organization, in order better to con-
duct business connected with dozen
educational institutions owned by the

likely that nothing would be adopted in
this regard before final adjoj urnment,
which was to take place tonight.

the conference of the joint synod of Mis-
souri, at Fort Wayne, Ind, in May;
1903, and six to the st. Paul synodical
conference in 1908. Those who will go

| Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis

tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
jdicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed "Golden Medical Discovery" for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or
dyspepsia. torpid liver, or hiliousness and
kindred arrangements was first made, as
1T ever, SINCE has bSen, without particle

accompanied with catarrhal discharges,

properly treated are liable to terminate
in consumption. Take DR.. Pierce's Dis

EDGERTON HAS FIGHT
i Optional SALOON GOES IN BY
MAYORS PREROGATIvE
License Granted at Special Session-Min-
,;ster Flags in Sermon at Union
Church Service.

EDGERTON, Wis, June 24.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-THE Shame OF Edgerton" was
the topic of the sermon of Rev. L. A.
Parr of the Congregational church at a
union meeting of the Congregational and
Methodist churches Sunday evening,
which is the climax of an unequaled broll
in affairs of the hight of the temperance
element against the Edgerton saloons
The affair has reached a point where one
member of the council has resigned rath-
er than remain under fire.
Because the saloon men joined hands
with the White Ribboners, they virtual
ly put their foot in it." Instead of be-
ing benefited by cooperation they come
out at the tail end of the procession and
the end Of the trouble is not yet in sight.
len saloons were already established
when application was made for the Ii
cense OF another, it having been Gus
tomary to grant all applying since the
city has been Incorporated. Upon hear
ing of this the temperance people circu-
lated petition which received a large
number of signatures and the council
seemed to look with favor on the OBJ
lection. To make their work more eff
fectlve, the saloon men were induced
to join the move to keep additional sa-
looms out and to this the latter assented
without serious consideration.
In the ensuing session before the coun-
Gil one discussion led to another until the
saloon men saw they were getting the
worst OF the bargain, but not until too
late. One thing the council did was to
recover an obsolete law which requires
all screens and blinds to be removed and
prohibiting the shaking of dice, playing
of cards and similar diversions. Last
Tuesday night ten licenses were granted
to the already established places of bust
ness.
Then on Thursday at a special meet
ing the eleventh and new man re-
ceived his license. There was tie
vote however, which was decided by the
mayor. Severe censure and expressions
of indignation have been takento heart
by one member to the extent of causing
him to hand in his resignation, which he
has been asked to reconsider. The tenn
perance workers do not know what to do
next after this rebuff. The affairs of the
past week have caused a decided stir and
promise of more agitation are repeatedly
made.

Selection of Food One of the Nest
Important Acts in Life.


A Mass. doctor says: "Our health
and physical and mental happiness are
so largely under our personal control
that the proper selection of food should
be. and is one of the most important
acts in life.
"On this subject, l may say that
know of no food equal in digestibility,
and more powerful in point Of nutri-
ment, than the modern Grape Nuts,
four heaping teaspoons of which is suf-
fcient for the cereal part of meal,
and experience demonstrates that the
user is perfectly nouriShed from one
meal to another.
Il am convinced that the extensive
and general use of high class foods of
this character would increase the term
of human life. add to the sum total of
happiness and very considerably i'm
prove society in general l am free to
mention the food, for l personally know
of its value"
Grape-NutS food can be used by babes
in arms, or adults. 1t is ready cooked,
can be served Instantly, either cold
with cream, or with hot water or hot
milk poured over. All sorts of pud-
Gngs and fancy dishes can be made
with Grape Nuts The food is concen-
trated and very economical, for four
heapiug teaspoons are sufficient for the

his skill in tanning snakes, was showing
an adder he had captured to friends
when it bit his finger.
Richards merely laughed, and by way
of bravado placed the adder's head in his
mouth. The reptile bit the roof of the
mans mouth. and with a cry of terror
Richards ran to a local surgery, which
he reached i'll state of collapse.
Subsequently he was carried home I'M
conscious, but is now recovering slowly,
both his arm and face being terribly
swollen. It was a curious circumstance
that Richards father died from the eff
fects of a snakes bite-London Globe.
