COL. JOHN B. FLIET.

Recently the PILOT published articles
concerning our late fellow townsmen
Gen. John A. Kellogg aud Col John b.
Fliet. The latter is still living and re-
sides at East Sound, Washington. An
intimate friend of the Colonel's, and
who is a subscriber of the PILoT-sent
him copies of the same containing the
articles and has received the following
ia reference thereto, which will be in
teresting to our readers:
81 sent the two articles regarding
him TO Col John B. Fliet, at East
Sound, Washington and today received
this reply.
4 thank you for the marked copies
of the PILOT. Some two years before
the death of Gen. Kellogg, he wrote me
an invitation to visit him and join him
in writing the story of Prison Life and
Escape 1t was not convenient for me
to do so at the time-which / have ever
regretted.
On~the occasion of his death, I wrote
an obituary ar r,icle-something over a
half column in ngth-which was pub
lished Feb. 25, 1888, in the Sunday Tele-
graph, soldier paper in Milwaukee,
conducted by Col. j. A. Watrous and
Col. E. A Calkins.
In 1886, in the solicitation of Col
Watrous, | wrote narrative of our
escape-about two columns per week
which were published currently with
the writing in eleven successive num-
rers of the Sunday Telegraph; from
Oct. II to Dec Goth.
Have just received four volumes of
the publications of the Wisconsin State
Historical Society, of which l am

much pleasure in reading it, and will

HITS VEIN OF IRON.
A Well Digger Strikes Ore on School
Property in the Town of Texas
When Drilling.

Walter ChiIsen, rural mail carrier.
who delivers mail on the border line of
Marathon county, reports that vein
OF iron has been found in Marathon
county by Merrill man.
For two weeks Thomas Frechette
has been engaged in drilling into the
ground for we'll in the school yard in
School district No 2, town of Texas,
Marathon county. In that time he has
only been able to penetrate the rocks
for about twenty feet. In drilling the
well, Mr.. Frechette noticed a peculiar
reddish color of the water in the
ground, and that the soil was a brown
ish red below the surface some distance
1t has been discovered that there is an
iron formation, and that vein was
struck, making it very hard drilling to
to the right depth for well Merrill
News.
From the time the first surveyor com
menced to run lines up in the town of
Texas, it has been known that there
were iron deposits, for the needle of his
compass refused to work. Prospecting
has been going on tor years, more or
less active, according to the accidental
discoveries mentioned above. OF the
thousands of dollars spent in that town
in quest OF iron, the metal has not been
as yet found in paying quantities and it
is doubtful if it ever will be. Let us
hope, though, it will prove, some day, a
second Gogebic.

A BIG FAKE.

Rhinelander New North The city
newspapers, Sunday, contained an ac-
count of the death of little girl who
had been devoured by wolf near En-
terprise, this county. 1t is learned that
the story is fake and was probably
originated out of whole cloth by some
over jealous correspondent who de-
sired to cause a sensation.
VIM. Meyers of Enterprise was in
RhineIander Monday and said that the
tale was absolutely false. The story,
as published in the Sunday papers, was
to the effect that the child had been de-
tanned until late after school by the
teacher and on her way home was at
tackled and killed by the wolf. The ami
NAL then ate her body and only pieces
of her blood stained clothing were
found.
Miss Cora Hagan of this city is the
teacher of the school where the girl
was supposed to nave been a pupil and
she also says that the report is untrue
The story, however, served to put En-
terprise on the map in startling m an
ner.
