Andrew Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs
Albert johnson, while walking along the
tracks in the switch yards at West Allis
last Thursday evening, was knocked
down in some unknown manner and for
some time lay insensible beside the
tracks. He had gone in with stock and
was looking after his car when the above
happened. A switch engine passed him
some time after, scraping his face and
body, he was lying SO close to the tracks.
He was picked up and taken to the de-
pot and DR. Sifton summoned, who made
an examination. He found no bones
broken, only badly lacerated side and
face. Andrew recovered some time later
sufficiently to return Friday evening and
is now slowly recovering at his parents
home. The claim agent of the G & N
w Ry visited him Monday and settled
all claims for damages, paying him 1925.
Mr. johnson does not know how he was
knocked down and hurt, but is thank
full that it is not more serious.

Way of One Man

He was romantic, but bashful for his
age. At twenty-five it is expected
nowadays that a man should be matter
of fact. She was his equal in romance,
but trifie older, old enough indeed to
be a widow The conversation had
turned on the ever important subject
of mothers-in-law There was lull in
the argument Gazing far, she sighed
and said:
"Ah, me! l shall never have another
mother-in-law!''
He looked at her with interest for a
moment and then suddenly blurted out:

johnson on Actors.

Although he wrote plays, Johnson
claimed not to be fond of players.
When Boswell suggested that we might
respect a great actor Johnson cried !:
what, sir, "a fellow who claps a hump
on his back and a bump on his legs
and cries, I am Richard IIIT Nay.
sir; ballad singer is higher man.
No doubt Boswell had Garrick in mind
when, after hearing Johnson say that
he looked on players as no better than
dancing dogs, he timidly suggested,
"But, sir, you will allow that some
players are better than others" YES,
sir, as some dogs dance better than
others

Editor G S Crosse left Monday for
Annapolis, Md, to be present at the
graduation of his son, Charles Crosse at
the Naval Academy. Mr. Crosse expects
to be absent about ten days and will
visit in Washington, ID @, while enroute.

the result that she broke her left arm
near the wrist.

Gently resigned in order to accept the
position of superintendent and general
manager of the Stoughton Light d Fuel

had been named as his successor. Herb,
who is an old Stoughton boy, will enter
upon his position as soon as he can make
arrangements to move here from Mil
waukee where he has resided the past
three years.
The Stoughton liquor cases were dis
posed of in the municipal court Thurs

Miss Elizabeth Cleland entertained
about twenty of her lady friends Satur-
day afternoon at her home on Main
street.
Vincent McMullen has rendered his
resignation as superintendent of the
Baker Manufacturing company to &C.
cept a position with the Fairbanks,
Morse company of Beloit. He expects
to move his family to that place about
April /.
Mrs j G Deveraux quietly passed away
Friday last she was stricken with paral
Nsis while sitting in a chair and from
which she failed to rally. Miss Phoebe
Johns was native of New York state
and in May, 1860, was married to John
G Devereaux. Coming to this country,
they settled on farm four miles north
west of this city where most of their
married life was spent. A few years ago
they retired from the farm and made
their home in this city.
The Baker Manufacturing company of
this city has, it would seem, solved the
much mooted question of strife between
Labor and capital. Believing that the
worker is contented and satisfied when
he receives what he considers his just
portion of the profits from the combina-
tion of his labor and the employers cap,
ital, the management of the concern in
stituted profit sharing several years ago.
1t appears that this plan has passed the
experimental stage and proven success
full Such conditions were shown to ex-
lst when the reports for the year 1906
were made at the recent meeting of the
stockholders. The sales average $1,000
day, gain of more than 80 per cent
over the past year. One hundred and
thirty hands were employed and weekly
pay roll was about $1,000. Eighteen pei
cent of this wage roll was paid as divi-
dends and $4,000 in stock was issued to
the men. Much new machinery was
purchased and new building costing
$4,000 was erected and an addition tc
the paint room is being contemplated.
