Friends Invade His Pleasant New
Home on the East Side Tues.
day Evening. - :

A large number of friends invaded
the home of John Lindberg, secretary
and treasurer of the Warren Milling
Co., on Tuesday evening and took,
full possession in the absence of both
Mr.. Lindberg and Mrs. Lindberg, who
were out calling at the home of Mr..
Furuseth, an employee of the mill,
who had been unfortunate during
the day to break his leg by slipping
and falling on, the barn floor Upon
their return late in the evening they
we're surprised to find the house fully
lit up and full of people,, all busily
engaged in amusing themselves with
games of various kinds. Mr.. j. P.
Mattson was called upon, and in a
few words he explained to Mr.. Lind
berg why his happy, and peaceful
home had been thus invaded by his
friends, that it was the purpose of
showing their appreciation of him as
friend and citizen. On behalf. of
the friends assembled he also present.
ed to him an elegant leather up
holstered Turkish rocker. It may be
remarked in passing that it is now
rs years since Mr.. Lindberg came to
this city, and this year he
celebrates his 50th birthday anni-
versary, Mr.. Lindberg came to this
valley in d box car: cattle car, if
you please, with Ada as his desti-
nation. It so happened that the car
got wrecked and the horses killed.
When the rescuers cut a hole in the
top of the car to look in they also
expected to find Mr.. Lindberg dead,
but instead, though considerably
shook up, they found him very much
alive and kicking, just as he is today.
The loss of his horses made him
change his plan and come to Warren,
where he also had relatives living,
and he has been here ever since. He
has engaged in various lines of work
such as brick making, hotel business,
the farm machinery business, and
lately has entered the milling busi-
ness-in all of which he has been
successful. Mr.. Llndberg thanked
his friends for the pleasant visit and
for the fine present. Refreshments
were next served, after which the
visitors departed to their respective
homes, having spent a very delightful
evening.

walks in repair, the weeds and grass
clipped short both on his lot and in
the adjacent street; he should plant
some trees ana keep them nicely
trimmed, and not forget some flowers
for his family and his friends.
Some of you will say that this is
all fad and does not pay for, time
and trouble, or that you cannot
afford it. Let me call your attention
to the history of Havana and New
Orleans. What has cleanliness done
for them? Has it been worth the
trouble? If you investigate, you can
only say it has. But you do not have
to 90 SO far from home. Take our
own city for instance. Let me read
the deaths by year since 1887 from
typhoid fever, dysentery and diar-
rhosas of children diseases which are
due to impure water and lack of
cleanliness: 1885; 89-3;9O-2; 9l-7;
92-3; $50; 94-3; 95-5; 96-l; 97-3; 98-l ;
900; 1901; OIL; OIL; U3-1; O4-O;
05-0; 06-0; total of 80; of which 33
occurred in the first ten years and
only five in the last nine. What
accounts for the difference? .Cleanli-
ness and better water. The hauling
away of house slops which we're
formerly thrown in the yards and
streets, think has been the princi-
pal cause for betterment. Does it
pay? 10 say nothing of the lives
which have been saved, you have
saved more in doctor bills, medicine
and funeral expenses than the total
cost of cleanliness.
But it is only by concerted action
of private citizen and public official
that we can hope to keep our streets
and alleys clean and maintain our
city's health, and it is only by. such
joint endeavor with every citizen
doing his just and honest part that
we can ever hope to make our streets
and homes attractive and our selves
happy and contented with our lot in
Warren. >-~ .. .....,..:

SANITATION and
0RNAMENTAT|0N
OF THE CITY
Address Given by DR.. 6. S. Wat.
tam at the Commercial Club
Banquet.

Sanitation and ornamentation, to
a certain extent, are closely related,
in that only in rare instances do we
find condition of one without in a
measure an existence of the other.
AS general rule it may be said that
artificial sanitation means to a GER
tain degree ornamentation and vice
versa.
The earth in it's primeval state,
where man has not disturbed the
handiwork of nature, presents most
nearly the ideal conditions which
conduce to health and beauty.
Students Of nature find most to ad-
mire in the deep seclusion of the
natural forest or on the rugged
mountain side where the water in
the streams runs fresh and clear and
the air is unpolluted by the dust and
SIN oke and nauseous gases generated
by the destructive forces of modern
civilization, and the weak and i'll
take themselves in search of health
to these same secluded spots, know
: ing that the chances for life and
health are much the best among
these Environments which nature has
adorned in her own original way.
l do not mean to say that the con-
dition of man at the present time
with all the advantages that are and
science have created for our comfort
and enlightenment is not superior to
that prevailing in the ages when
authentic history first describes our
ancestors of the long ago, or that ex-
isting at the present time among
those peoples who still exc out a
miserable existence by the very
crudest ways. On the contrary, I
appreciate most fully the JOY and
comforts of a twentieth century life
as dispensed in it's highest type to US
who enjoy the privilege of citizen
ship in these United States. The
strenuous life, however, of our aver
age citizen seeking first the accumu-
lation of wealth too often leads him
to overlook some duties which he
owes the public, his family and him.
self. Not least among these should
be the ambition to do his best to
conserve the life and happiness of
each and every one affected by his
acts.
I believe it to be a fundamental
principle of law that the right of
one individual ceases to exist at the
point where his acts infringe upon
the rights of others. And it is
v equally true that each man owes it
to the community in which he lives
to share in those duties and burdens
which have for their object the gen.
eral welfare of all. $685..
This brings US to the point of a
practical application Of these, prin-
ciples in an endeavor to cleanse and
beautify our own little city Of War

have already made good beginning
along this line. We may, for in

LEAD AND ZINC MINING
Activity i'll and About the City of
Mineral Point.
Mineral Point Mines.

J. H. Lewis: The Merry Christmas
is driving tunnel into the old ''Min-
eral Point Hill" The foundations
for the new mill have been completed
and the superstructure is being reared
by large force of competent mechan-
les in the employ of the Galena Iron
Works company. This firm is also
engaged in building the mills for the
Hoare and Temby mines, the latter
enjoying the reputation of having been
a strong copper producer in the SOS.
A copper smelter stood where is now
located the Mineral Point zinc oxide
works, but of which all trace has been
wiped out.
The Liverpool and Hazel Patch are
now operating full blast with new in
stallment of jigs, and will do much to
help swell the output of the Mineral
Point camp. The Tripoli is also oper-
ating with additional machinery and
cutting new ground. The Homesite,
operating in the deepest shaft in the
northern half of the field, is clearing
a site for a new mill concentration.
The Peacock is making a good show
ing although running shorthanded
Several good miners can find employ
ment at this mine.
The Mineral Point zinc oxide works,
after d shutdown pending renewals
and repairs to furnaces, has begun
operations again on a large scale.
Several hundred men find employment
here, and the industry has done much
to established the claim that Mineral
Point is the largest industrial city in
southwest Wisconsin.
Indications are now strong that the
output of the Mineral Point camp will
increase at a great rate and easily
make it one of the foremost camps in
this field. Three new mills are build
ing and more have been contracted.

Horse Not as Represented.

Darlington Democrat, Sept. 5: A
law suit between Benton parties about
the buying of n horse was tried in
Esquire McGinley's court yesterday.
The suit was brot by DR.. Bair, the
purchaser, for $S5 damages, against
James Blunt, the seller. The point at
issue was IL regard to the SELLERS
guarantee. DR.. Bair said Mr.. Blunt
told him the horse was all right, and
Mr.. Blunt said he didn't. Ambrose
McCarty, boy of fourteen years, who
heard the bargain, said Mr.. Blunt
told the doctor the horse was alright.
Within few days after the doctor
got the horse he was found to be
blind in one eye and had sprung a
slight curb. The horse was certainly
blind when sold but the curb is debat-
able. The jury, Peter Logue, Will
Murray, Jas. Bell and Frank Gordon
Sr., decided in favor of the purchaser,
and assessed the damage at $3.50
