Death of DIR. Brewer.

Whitewater Register.
Very many of our readers will be
panied to learn of the death of DIR. F.
B. Brewer, which occurred at the
home of his son in Fort Atkinson, Tues
day, May IL. He was taken i'll at Mer-
rillan Junction two weeks before, and
was brought to the Fort where every
care and service was rendered, but the
case was hopeless from the outset. DR..
Brewer was born at Highgate, VT,
August S, 1881. The family moved to
Warren, Ohio, in 1889, and afterwards
to farm near Jefferson, Wis. He was
educated at local schools and at Ripon
and Appleton, and taught at Hebron,
Jefferson and Whitewater till his health
gave out; at the latter place he was
principal for eleven years. Obtaining a
thorough medical education he practiced
for time at Chicago and at Fairbury,
H., and was for several years part
ner Of the well known DR.. Price. For
the last thirty years he followed an
itinerant practice making the same
towns regularly, and he acquired a
handson., property as he had the conf
dence and support of large constitu-
ency. The deceased is survived by his
wife, a daughter of the late James
Miner of Hebron, and two sons, both
physicians. The funeral services We're
conducted by Rev. Eaton of Evanston,
H., on Thursday; the burial was at the
Hebron cemetery.

An Easy One.

Lancaster Herald.
Lancaster high school won its fourth
consecutive victory of the season when
it defeated Mineral Point high school
by the remarkable score of ii to |. AL
though the local team showed UP much
better than the visitors the latter part
of the game was little more than a
comedy of errors. Lancaster did not
play the same smooth baseball that
won the Normal games and most Of the
local men were enjoying a quiet nap
when Whitford scored for the Point
boys in the sixth.
Brewer, the visiting pitcher, was
much harder to hit than either of the
other twirlers Lancaster has been up
against this year, but when one man
got hit off of him it meant two or
three scores. In this way the home
boys punched hits" in the fourth,
sixth and eighth innings and brought
their end of the score up to its remark
able proportions. At other stages of
the game Brewer was somewhat stead
Ter and managed to strike out II men.
Pennock had Ia strikeouts to his credit.
Very ordinary fielding was exhibited
by both teams and taken all together
the game was very tame affair.
The score by innings is as follows
Lancaster. 0 0 3 0 III

How a Publisher Got Even.

A newspaper publisher has recently
brought suit against forty-fve men who
would not pay their subscriptions, OBJ
tanning judgment in each claim. Of
these, twenty-eight made affidavit that
they owned no more than the law al
lowed, thus preventing attachment.
Then under the decision of the Supreme
Court they were arrested for petit lar
ceny and bound over in the sum of $500
each. All but six gave bond while six
went to Jail. The new postal law makes
it larceny to take paper and refuse
to pay for it.

The persons who furnish news to
the editor are always valuable friends
to him. Some persons hesitate about
sending items to newspaper regarding
the movements of friends lest the
editor think them anxious to see their
names in print He viii think nothing
of the kind, but on the contrary is al
ways glad to get such items. Many a
seemingly unimportant note, when
printed, is news to a large number of
readers.

The people of Racine were treated to
singular condition of weather Sunday.
With thunder storm far to the north,
and the sun shining brightly throughout
the city and not a drop of rain, bolt of
lightning struck the home of Mrs. Dob

damaging the roof. One member of the

METHODiSTS WILL NOT
ELECT MANY BISHOPS

Baltimore. May 15.-There are indi-
cations today that the general confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal church
now in session will not elect as many
new bishops as had been expected 1t
has been thought that the number

seems certain that the committee hav-
ing the matter in charge will recon-
mend that the total number of bishops
be made less than it has been hither-
to. but that there be 10 reduction in
The foreign field. This does not mean
that there will be no bishops elected
for service in the United states but
simply that the number elected win not
be as had been anticipated Economy

tee on revision on the proposition to
drop fasting as one of the requirements
of the candidates for ordination to the
ministry, was defeated today by $40 to

calling upon every member of the
