BIG DAMAGE SUIT
&C. Burgess, OF This City Sues For
$4,000 DAMAGES

c. E. Burgess Of this city has
fled suit against one Thomas
Taylor of Minneapolis, for s25.-
600 damages. Mr.. Burgess al
leges in his suit that the defend
ant was instrumental in having
him (Burgess) barred from mem
berShip to the Chamber OF Com
merce of Minnesota, and has
thereby injured his trade and
reputation to the extent of the
amount asked for.
Mr.. Burgess sets forth in his
papers that he has been engag-
led in buying and selling grain
along the railroad throughout
the state, and has always borne
q good reputation.
It is rule of the Chamber Of
Commerce that no member can
buy Or sell grain on its floors
| without paying one cent for
| every bushel involved to some
| member who will then buy or
sell it for him
| Mr.. Burgess maintains in his
allegation that in the fall of '06
he made application for mem
bership to the Chamber. He
was asked to secure the recon-
mendation of some member in
good standing. He asked Mr..
! Taylor, who replied that he
would not recommend him, and
that he was a d crook. This
was said, Mr., Burgess maintains
in the presence of several wit
nesses.
| 1t seems that Mr.. Burgess has
later made several applications
for membership, but they have
all been turned down. The case
will probably be tried at the
next term Of circuit court.

M ERITO RIO s
Was the Art Exhibit of Miss Ruth
Roberts

An exhibit of the water colors
and china painting done by Miss
Ruth Roberts was had at the
home of Mrs. George Ruhberg
on Seventh street last Tuesday
and Wednesday. The paintings
were few in number, but were
all most meritorious, and show
ed in their treatment of the sub
jects, thorough mastery of the
fine art of water coloring and
china decoration. With the ex-
ception of one set piece, no con-
ventional work was seen among
the collection of painted china.
The flowers and figures depicted
were painted in unassuming pos
lures and groups.
; Nineteen water colors hung
upon the walls. They were both
of animate and still life. The
faces of the figures were all re-
markedly well executed-a thing
that a great many young artists
fall down on. A landscape of
beech trees bordering a small
stream was among the best, as
was a marine view of vivid col
oring. A large bunch of Ameri-
can Beauty roses painted on
china and framed looked exact
ly as if they had been executed
on canvas.
Miss Roberts is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Roberts
one of the pioneer settlers here
who now reside two and a hall
miles south of the city in Rob.
ert's Grove. For the past three
years she has been employed al
Stoner's Art Studio in St. Paul
A particularly bright future is
predicted for the young lady, as
her treatment of subjects and
delicate coloring indicates a true
artist.

HUNTING CONTINUES
Game Seems Plentiful and Sports
men are Successful

Sunday the hunters were
abroad in the land again. This
time most of the parties from
the city had good luck, and bag
ged their full quota 1t was a
good day for hunting. too, being
quite cool. and many early birds
left the city in full hunting re-
gala, accompanied by one or
two fine pointers or settlers, for
which this city is noted, and a
plentiful stock Of ammunition
A party who had good luck
and incidentally an exciting time
was composed of Dean Jacobson,
Billy McCauley and Frank
Brakey. They started for Sweet
water at an early hour in an
automobile. When some ways
from the city it was discovered
that the gasoline tank had run
dry. Dean got down under the
machine to hunt for a leak in
the tank. He struck numerous
matches, his hand were covered
with gasoline, and he was
searching around very near the
plug, which it was found later
had been lost. The escape from
an explosion was extremely mar
row, for had the gasoline ex-
ploded the auto and Dean would
have both gone "sky-high. -
Some more gasoline was procur-
ed from a nearby farm house,
and the party proceeded on their
way. However, the machine re.
fused to work just right, and
every hill that was encountered
the entire party had to alight
and push.
At last reaching their destin

MOUSE is ARISTOCRATIC

There are great many stories
about 'church mice" but the latest
mouse story to see the light is the
new Training school mouse, which has
been stealing the good things out of
the pocket of Janitor Thompson. Ac-
cording TO the story the janitor eats
chocolate. To supply his needs he
buys it in the cake, and his grand
children know pretty we'll in which
pocket of his overcoat to look for the
sweets. However, a stray mouse has
evidently taken up it's abode In the
engine room OF the new building, for
on two occasions, when the owners
back was turned, it has sought the
pocket and nibbled quite freely of the
chocolate bar, leaving the PARTICLES of
paper and the prints of its little
teeth, as reminder of the feast of
sweets. Janitor Thompson declares
that he will keep his pet well supplied,
but deplOres the fact that the little
fellows reticence does not permit and
acquaintance. He claims that this
mouse is different than the ordinary
church" mouse, for its tastes are
aristocratic and to all who ADVISE
trap" he only looks at them with an
air of contempt. and retorts; mo in
deed, l prefer to furnish it chocolate. "

FEDERATION MEETING
The Afternoon and Evening
Programs For Dec. 9Th Are
Interesting.

The third quarterly meeting of this
year promises to be of special interest.
The afternoon program given at the
Methodist church will be devoted
largely to the work of the school COM
mittee. Mrs. o. T. Hougen will re-
port for this committee and Mrs.
Anna E. Schaffer, of Madison will
tell of the work undertaken in the
state for the blind and deaf children.
This is subject that appeals to all
parents and friends of the little ones
and insures large attendance
Another pleasing feature of the
afternoon session will be the report of
the state Federation meeting at
Fond du Lac given by Mrs. S. Church.
The evening meeting at the resi-
dence OF Mrs. Chas. Kellogg is under
the direction of the consumers league
committee, of which Miss Steele is
chairman, and promises to be one of
the social events of the season. 1t

to $50 for Mrs. Buell., of Madison,
who is president of the State Fedora
ton. A short program follows with
social features later in the evening.
The ladies of the entertaining west

is chairman extend their hospitality
to the gentlemen or other guests
whom the members may invite.

HONORABLE JAMES WILSON
ON THE INTERNATIONAL

Honorable James Wilson, secretary
of agriculture, in a recent interview
said
''The international Live Stock Ex-
position as an educational factor has
carved niche for itself.
producers are confronted with the
problem of increase cost of every
commodity that they use, greatly en-
CHANGING their expenditure.
"Obviously this necessitates rigid
economy, and the man who reduces
cost of production to minimum in
sures maximum profits and his own
survival where others fail
THE International is teaching it's
valuable lesson to the country at an
opportune moment.
During the period of cheap feed
and feed lot extravaganza such educa-
ton was not valued, because it's bene-
fits were not realized at the time
''Under new conditions, the man
who produces beef. pork and mutton
cannot afford the use of inferior ma
chinery in his business.
Economy requires that he handle
the very best types of the most i'm
proved breeding; and these lessons
can be obtained at the International
Live Stock Exposition, which is
acknowledged to be an educational in
stitution of the highest order in it's
line" Do not forget the dates-Nov.

ITS GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY
Thanksgiving Day Marks Half
Century for Wood County Re-
porter

Today, Move N Der 18th. the
WOOD COUNTY REPORTER reached
It's Golden anniversary, having
been started on November 18th,
1857, by j. n. Brundage The build
ing in which the REPoRER first saw
the light of day has passed into the
unknown, but the location on which
1T stood, is now occupied by the hand
some residence OF F. L. Steib, on the
corner OF Washington and Ninth
streets.
The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER was
one of the very first journalistic ven-
lures in the Wisconsin River Valley
and has experienced the 'ups and
downs of all pioneer newspapers, and
has changed hands very few times
considering its long life.
j. E. lngraham, now resident of
Babcock, this county, was the second
owner of the REPORTER, and after a
short time as exclusive publisher, he
associated with himself in the publi-
cation H. B. Philleo. Ingraham &
Philleo continued for many years as
the publishers, and in 1878 the former
sold his interest to Fl. B. Philleo &
Son, who continued TO edit and pub
liSh the paper until April q, 1880,
when they sold it to Paul and Albert
Fontaine. Six years thereafter, AL
bert Fontaine purchased the interest
of Paul Fontaine, and ever since has
continued to publish and edit this
paper.
The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER has
always been republican in politics; has
always advocated the advancement
and upbuilding of Grand Rapids and
Wood county; and has stood for, and
advocated the higher conditions of
life.
Today, November 2Sth, it is
so years old. To have existed that
long is Indicative that it must have
met with public favor, and have been
of sufficient merit to deserve existance.
A bout one year ago, the weekly was
not wholly adequate to the demands
OF the growing community and the
times, and the DAILY REPORTER be-
gan its history.
Such In brief is the history of the
Wood COUNTY REPORTER, the
mother of the DAILY REPORTER. and
in closing let usadd-LET ITS RECORD
BE ITS Own REWARD.

SAVES ALlFE
RECEIVES CURSES
observer Gets Story From a
Railroad FIauman,

The observer" was in conversation
recently with the flagman at the
Grand Ave. crossing of t. & St. P.
railway concerning the possibilities of
accidents to pedestrians.
The flagman related several inst
ances where an accident was averted
only by sheer force of muscle on his
part In actually holding a foolhardy
person from attempting to cross the
tracks directly in front of an approach
Ing engine. Just Monday a man parti-
ally intoxicated, was cautioned by the
fiagman to stop, as an engine was ap-
preaching but the warning was ignored
and the man started to cross the track.
The flagman saw he would be crushed
so he grabbed the man by the collar
ana Jerked him back just in the nick
Of time to save him from being ground
to death beneath the wheels of the
engine. This fact seemed to be lost
upon the half dazed pedestrian and
because of the flagman's necessarily
rough handling, he cursed him roundly
for his action. To save mans life
and to receive curses in payment
seems pretty hard but the flagman
says he is used to it now and considers
nothing but doing his duty as best he
can; saving human lives though
cursed for doing so. One more of the
indeScribable things in life.

WORK MAKES MEN.

Work makes men. Luck usually
fails. Pluck nearly always wins. To
succeed in anything one must over
come obstacles, Force and fider are
built by hardships. Grit is as neces-
sary in the making of a man as
gumption. Hardships are not always
handicaps. Often they are helps
You will understand this better in
twenty years. Hang onto your job
until you are sure OF "a better one.
Dependable boys are in demand. And
no boy can be depended upon who
does not finish the task he sets his
hands to do. However disagreeable
our work, do it better than the
average boy will do it.
In that way you will come to be
known as a dependable boy. And
mind you this: Men everywhere are
looking for capable, honest, gritty, de-
pendable boys. The sooner you let
people know that you are that kind
Of boy, the sooner you will get a
better job. And don't be in hurry
to give up the work you already have.
Be sure something. better is offered.
Wait awhile. Do your work well.
Promotion will come. And do not
envy the boy who has an easy time.
You would much better pity hun.
He has good time now, but some
day he must make good" With his
flabby muscles and his easy habits and
his many wants, he stands a far poorer
chance than you. Remember above
all, young fellow, you are making a
man of yourself.

AGAIN in 1908,

The Wisconsin River. Valley IS leading
cities figures prominently in the max
ing up of the 1907 Ripon college foot
ball team, which, though it failed to
retain the championship won IN 1906,
still made an enviable record for itself.
The team was composed of nearly
thirty candidates, all of whom worked
diligently from the beginning of the
season until the close, to keep the
Ripon men in the place won last year.
This year two defeats were recorded,
the first in two years. The fact that
this years candidates will practically
all be on hand next year to try again,
makes the hopes of good team in
1908 bright. Many of the football
candidates are expected to enter other
athletics and win places for their COL
lege there.
The Wisconsin river valley men who
worked with the team this year are:
Robert Mcdonald of Grand Rapids,
member of last years championship
also.
Walter Winneman, Merrill.

in every game this fall, only to suffer
an injured leg in the last game.
