Surprise to the Office Boy.

In certain large and busy Office
down town there are five telephone
booths and it takes a good deal of the
time of one office boy to answer the
many calls. During rush hours. in
deed, these calls are almost incessant.
and when the duty Of attending to
them was assigned to q new boy the
other day he got into trouble right
away. Before answering a call he
learned that the party at the other end
was the wife of one of the members
of the firm. He called this member
ont of his office and told him his wife
wanted to speak to him ,on the phone.
The member, approaching the booths,
asked: (Which one%' I'm sure |
don't know. SIR replied the boy. II
didn't know you had more than one"

Material for Capitol.

The usual contest over what material
shall be used in the construction Of
the new capitol is expected to come
up in the legislature. Senator Wright
of Merrill and AssembIyman Leroy
Of Marinette each has a bill limiting
it to Wisconsin stone. 1t is Said the
capitol commission would rather not
be restricted in it's choice and that
outside interests will make some at
tractive propositions, but Senator
Wright says:
II believe we can get a better build
ing if We have it constructed of gran
lite and marble quarried in Wisconsin.
Such material would be representa-
tive of the state and I believe it is fit
ting and proper to use such material
so long as it is good and desirable
Besides it will furnish labor to Wis
consin men and keep the money with
in the state.'' A. D. BARTON.

The Trouble at the Stove.

DR.. c. A. LamsoD, of New London,
while at school at Andover, n. H.,
with several other boys. attended
camp fire of the G. A. z. at Wilnot.
It was several degrees below zero, and
the stove was red hot when veteran
named Chase came in. He was a
large man, and very bow legged As
he stood by. the fire Doc as he was
always called, stepped up and slapped
him on the back, saying, please ex-
cuse me, but fear you are standing
too near the stove"
The veteran looked at the stove,
then at his clothes, and said. did you
think. young fellow, that my clothes
are burning?'
mo, sir; but l saw that your legs
We're warping," was the reply BOs-

Lincoln and His Beard.

It was q child who persuaded Abfa-
ham Lincoln to wear a beard Up to
the time he was nominated for Dresi-
dent he had always been smooth shay
ell. A little girl living in Chautauqua
county, n. Y, who greatly admired
him, made up her mind that he would
look better if he wore whiskers and
with youthful directness wrote and told
him so. He answered her by return
mail:
Springfield, ILL.,, Oct. 10, 1860.
Miss Grace Bedell:
My Dear Little Miss-Your very agree
able letter of the 18th is received. [ re-
gret the necessity of saying [ have no
daughter. I have three sons-one seven
teen, one nine and one seven years of
age. They, with their mother, consti-
tute my whole family. AS to the Whisk-
ers, never having worn any, do you not
think pc Jple would call it a piece of silly
affectation if l were to begin it now?
Your very sincere wellwisher.
A. LINCOLN
Evidently on second thought he de-
cided to follow her advice. On his
way to Washington his train stopped
at the town where she lived. He ask
ed if she were in the crowd gathered
at the station to meet him. OF course
she was, and willing hands forced
way for her through the mass of peo-
Lincoln stepped from the train, kissed
her and showed her that he had taken
her advice-St Nicholas

RIoIx of a. SwOrdfish.

A remarkable illustration of the force
with which a swordfish strikes a blow

a sword was found which had success
fully pierced a sheathing one inch
thick, a three inch plank and beyond
that four and a half inches of firm

To Buy Old Capitol.

In connection with building Of the
new capitol it is interesting to note
that bill is expected to come in pro-
viding for the purchase of the old ter
ritoral capitol at Belmont, the first
meeting-place Of a Wisconsin legisla-
ture. By a strange caprice of fate
this first capitol, although built of
wood, has survived two of it's prouder
successors of stone and bids fair to
live we'll into the lifetime Of it's third.
This building, iii which the first ter
ritorial legislature met in 1887, is a
two-story affair, much resembling
store in a country town. 1t was built
of strong oak timbers, as We're most
buildings in that early day, and was
proud affair then, but long since fell
from it's high estate and for many
years has been doing ignOble duty as
barn. Some time ago an attempt
was made to obtain possession of it,
but the owner said he wished to re-
tain it until his death. He died re-
Gently and the property now bids fair
to soon pass into the hands Of the
state.

Destruction Is Tremendous.

The destruction of the forests of
northern Wisconsin has been on ire
mendous scale, particularly on the
headwaterS of the Wisconsin. and
therefore, & small forest reserve would
fall far short of remedying existing
evils. The state should gradually ac-
quire in this region a forest reserve
large enough to adequately protect the
watershed of this, our greatest river,
as such a considerable part of the
prosperity of the state is dependent
upon it's constant, even flow. The ire
mendOuS influence which the forest
has in preserving and regulating
stream flow is the most important fac
tor in the forestry work of Wiscon-
sin. A large enough forest reserve
will be able in time to supply many of
the important industries which are de-
pendent upon the forests for their raw
material. New York state already has
forest reserve of 100000 acres in
the Adirondack lake region, which pro-
tects the headwaters of the Hudson
river, and is steadily buying more
timber land.''

DINNER TO w. G. FOX
FAREWELL TESTIMONIAL FROM
MANY FRIENDS.

occasion was a farewell dinner to Mr. Will
| liams c. Fox, who was recently appointed
United States minister to Ecuador. The

| republics and has had a long career in the
diplomatic and consular services of the gov

son and other things and the flow of soul
was Mr.. Frank A. Richardson In his

to the character, energy and high honor of
Mr.. Fox, and predicted that splendid re-
suits would follow his assignment to the
Ecuadorean mission. He then introduced
the other speakers, all of whom paid high
tribute to the guest of the club, the new
minister to Ecuador. They were Don LUIS

A brief poem written by Maurice Francis
Egan, entitled ''Of William c. Fox" was
read as follows:
They say he goes: know this club retains
The best Of him--his manness OF soul
His kindness of heart the loyalty that enchains
Us unto him-these stay, though rivers roll
And mountains loom and misty stretch plains
| They say he goes; we know that he remains!''
Mr.. Fox Responds.
Mr.. Fox feelingly responded to the many
compliments and congratulations that had
been showered upon him by his associates
and friends, and cordially thanked them for
their hearty evidences of confidence and es-
TEEN.
