COmpisM to Commission.

The committee of nine, representing
points along the Mineral Point division
of the Milwaukee road, which made a
demand for improvements in the pass
enger train service and had their de-
mand denied, have taken their COM
plant to the state railroad commission
Colin w. Wright of Monroe, who is
chairman of the committee, forwarded
the formal complaint to the railroad
commission at Madison last week, and
the matter will doubtless be set for
early hearing.
Mr.. Wright, in his complaint, covers
the ground thoroughly, and will be pre-
pared to back up the charges that are
alleged. This committee, which is now
going ahead with the fight for improved
service, will look to the points repre-
sented for support. While the commit
tee represents the sentiment of the
public, it remains for the public and the
local organizations of business men to
get together and settle upon what they
want, and come to the aid Of the com.
lnittee, lending moral support and 9th.
erwise assisting in the fight. Mr.. Wright
is confident that strong showing car
be made and that the company will BE-
compelled to remedy the service along
the lines proposed by the committee.

The annual party of Raven lodge,
Knights of Pythias, held last evening,
is to be numbered among the enjoyable
events of the season. The attendance
was large and appreciative. The Twi-
light orchestra, eight pieces strong,
was at its best. Solos by the Misses
Eunice Blewett and Sadie Jacobs merit
ed the hearty applause they received,
and Miss Katherine Davis's reading
went far to make the whole complete.
The strongly impressive feature of the
evening was the address of Rev. Ben
der, who dwelt entirely on the immeas-
urable worth of friendship, charity and
benevolence. Though brief his remarks
were entwined with mirthful vein and
beautiful sentiment, The address was
gem, which, if needed, will result
benefcally to Pythian Knights and all
others within the sound of his voice.
An exchange repeats the advice
not to throw salt on cement sidewalks.
The composition out of which they are
made won't stand for it. The salt has
the effect of softening the cement and
rendering the walk honey combed.
Ashes and sawdust are the proper
things to place on them. The best way
to treat them, however, is to use a
snow shovel in good season; then there
will be no need of anything else.
"A $50, 900 fire visited the business
section of Viroqua last week This
should serve as warning to our citi-
zens to be ever on the alert i'll guarding
against fire. Mineral Point has been
fortunate on the whole with regard to
fires, but there is always an element of
danger, remember.

Frank ". HadHeid Dies.

Milwaukee papers announce the death
of Frank w. Hadfeld at his home in
that city at 2:30 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing Of this week, after short illness.
Etty-seven years ago deceased was
bq Nj Mineral Point He was son Of
the iate John Hadfield Here he grew
to manhood. His studious, manly bear
ing stamped him as one of our most
worthy sons. He was united in marriage
to Miss Philippa Cox, an estimable
young lady of this city. Almost imme-
diately thereafter they located at Engle-
wood, Ill. Mr.. Hadfeld's tact and re-
liability as man soon become recog-
nized in that section of strenuous bust
ness activity. His services were secured
by the Pennsylvania Coal and Supply
company. Aside from coal this company
dealt largely in cement and the manu-
facture of cement blocks of all descrip-
tons for building purposes. Mr.. Had
field was eventually promoted to gen.
eral superintendent and early in 1905
was transferred to Milwaukee. Time
has proven that his physical strength
was not equal to his energy, hence his
untimely death much regretted in bust
ness circles of Chicago and Milwaukee,
and especially at his old home, Mineral
Point.
He is survived by his wife, one son
and two daughters. Mrs. Hadfield and
daughter Florence reside in Milwaukee,
while his son, Stanley, is in business at
DeKalb, Ill. The other daughter, Mrs.
H. l.. Caldwell, lives in Chicago.
The funeral occurred yesterday, the
body being taken to Chicago for inter
ment.

LARGEST Number Of Birds Ever Gathered
Together In Southwestern Wisconsin,.

The second annual exhibition of the
Southwestern Wisconsin Poultry asso-
citation, held in this city last week, was
a success, from breeders standpoint
in particular, while the very liberal
policy of the managers proved it to be
no money boarding affair.
Visitors stood amazed at the quantity
and quality of pure bred chickens raised
in this section, and Mr.. McClave of
Ohio, a judge of national reputation,
pronounced them as comparing favor
ably with the best raised any where.
The Rock and Wyandotte families
predominated. Brahmas, Langshans,
Minorcas, Orpingtons, Leghorns, Games,
Bantams, etc, were less in number but
of high merit. Strange, but true, not
Cochin was on exhibition.
Allen Tucker, j. l., Gray, Jeuck Bros,
F, E. Hanscom, VIII Prisk and Mrs.
Kate Johnston, all made large exhibits -
Rocks and Wyandottes only. D. H.
Baker & Son of Cobb were on hand
with their White Rocks also Mr.. Ire
melting of that place. j. F. Johns, NJ
Peavy, Flint Chapman and Henry James
all of Dodgeville, had some splendid
specimens at the show. also S. Driver
and Mr.. Schreiter of Darlington, and
each is now happy with more or less
blue ribbon. W. H. Blewett had his
Light Brahamas there and sold them all
to one party. Mr.. c. Day of this city
placed in the show male bird of the
Miscellaneous class that attracted spec
ial attention. 1t scored 941a and gave
evidence of being an egg producer. 1t

In all there were about fifty exhibitors
and five hundred entries.

Mighty few men who smoke gem
uine briar pipes know where the wood
comes from. They probably don't care
as long as they enjoyed smoking them.
Real briarwood comes from southern
Europe, alorg the Mediterranean coast,
most Of it from Italy ard the islands of
Corsica and Sardinia. The root of the
tree makes the highest grade pipe.

Not being successful after weary hours

high school kid to help him in his di-

it away.

will have long run. This mine Is prae
