ON the battlcsiiip Missouri, has been
buried in the foot hills south OF the
town OF Magdalona. Bowling was 90
years Old. His death was caused by
consumption. His home was at Fan
Claire. Wis.
Aside from the regret caused by the
illness of the commander in chief,
!! Rear Admiral Evans, the death of
young Bowling is the one real note
of sorrow that has fallen on the fleet
during its stay in these waters While
the ships Oh the range were firing
their II inch guns at the targets. six
miles away, 400 officers and men of
the Missouri were paying their last
tribute TO the dead. Tie roar of the
, guns, like distant thunder, and Inc
beat of muflled drums on the shore
mingled in Il requiem symbolic OF
. both life and death The fleet went
, on with It's work, hut Tie dead sea-,
man was given his NEED of honor.
: 1t was mournfully picturesque cor
tegc that followed The body from the
Missouri to the shore along the dusty
Magdalena street and up to the hill
TO the spot where the open grave
awaited its tenant A dozen launches
and rowboats carried the officers and
men of the fleet, the former in full
blue uniforms with white gloves. the
latter in white with black ties. All
flags were ut half mast.
In the first launch. on the carriage
Of field gun, rested the plain black
box that contained the body. Over It
lay the Union Jack.
Arrived on shore, a column was
quickly formed, the band leading. the
junior officers. marines and seamen
of the Missouri following and the
Mexican marines bringing up the rear.
The march to the grave began 10 the
music of 4 dirge that emphasized the
lonliness of the adjacent hills.
AT the grave Rev. NJ. C. Gleason,
chaplain Of the Connecticut, pronon-
cd the ritual for the departed sea-
man. and the body was lowered into
the grave while the band played
Nearer, My God, to Thee" The Am
erican marines then fired the usual
three volleys and the Mexican squad
paid like tribute OF respect.
Seaman lowing does not sleep
alone in this isolated graveyard. An
other American seaman was buried
here just before the fleet arrived. Be
sides there are graves of score or
more of Mexicans.

Regular carriers are given vacation

neglects to provide a box, accessible to
the carrier from his wagon, cannot par

IMPORTANT announcement.

The postm aster general has issued an
order effective January /, 1908, which
is of much interest to newspapers and
newspaper subscribers in all parts of the
country. Under the ruling a limit is
placed to the time subscriber can get
in arrears of payment and continue to
be regarded rs bona fde subscriber.
This time limit is three months for daily
papers and ole year for weekly papers.
when this is exceeded papers can no
longer be sent to such subscribers at So
called pound rates. The only way pa
pers can continue to be sent is to have
them prepaid at regular postage rates,
which of course is out of the question,
as no paper could stand the expense,
Although the new rule went into eff
feet January 1 a reasonable time will
be given publishers to organize their
subscription lists on the advance pay
ment plan, and give subscribers who are
in arrears chance to pay up.
The notice in the PILOT regarding the
new ruling of the postmaster general
has worked like charm. During the
past month large number of our sub.
scribers have paid up, and this fact has
put the "old man" in the PILOT Office
in good humor. But there are still a
number of subscribers who are delin-
quent and unless they pay up before the
new ruling goes into operation their
names will then be dropped from our
list. The new ruling requires that all
subscriptions to weekly papers must be
paid within one year and we are there
fore compelled to restrict credit accord
ingly. If you are delinquent give the
matter prompt attention for the time is
drawing near, when the new ruling will
go into effect, and if you are not square
on our books off goes your name from
our list We have no other alternative
we must comply with the law.

present.

Of cattle ut Casson brings the matter near
home. Mr.. WIN. Ziegler, farmer liv.

herd of cattle numbering 3D. During
the last year he lost few through sick.
ness and he desired to have the herd
tested. The result was that II out of
32 were condemned as being tuberculous.
These will be- shipped to the proper
authorities and killed. A cow may have
tuberculosis and yet not show it; she
may appear perfectly well.
Ii may be that there are other tuber.
culous cattle in the county. The time
to clear the disease out is nolc. Don't
let IT get in. If you have one tuber.
cnlous COW now, you will have several
next year. The time is coming when
the state will compel man to have his
herd tested Think also of the danger
you are subjecting yourself and family
to if you have tuberculosis in your
herd. Milk from tuberculous cow fed
to hogs will infect them, and it certain.

to use such milk.
The test can be performed by any one.
1t is very simple. The tuberculin can
