100000, divided into 1000 shares OF
500 par value.

income return of but $3514. The
amount that Mr.. Morgan paid for
these holdings could not be learned.

Equitable does not convey the i'm
portance that was attached to it when
MIR. Ryan secured control. Then the
stock nominated all the trustees, and
the trustees had practically unlimited
power in the investment of the up
wards of s472,0OO,OOO assets of the

A Dangerous Fire Averted.

A gasoline stove in the Shufelt res
idence exploded about 1880 Monday
forenoon. The alarm was sent to
Central" and as there is no day
power at the electric light plant to
blow the alarm whistle, Judge Ken
nedy, who happened to be in the
phone Office at the time, rushed up
on the street and gave the alarm in
a tone OF voice that would have made
any military commander envious.
The department. turned out promptly
and the chemical soon had the blaze
under control. Considerable damage
done in the hall and to the stairs
and it was very fortunate that the
blaze was gotten under control so
quickly Is a gale of wind was blowing
at the time. The house is large and
would have made a very dangerous
fire had it got away from the firemen.
Mr.. Shufelt and his daughter, Mrs.
Lee, fortunately were not near the
stove when it exploded and thus es-
capped risk Of serious injury.

Farmers and Hayseeds

There are Farmers and there are Hayseeds. A Hayseedis a
man who buys poor machinery, on the instalment plan, and
let's it stand out in all sorts of weather until it falls to pieces;
who pays no attention to what he sows or plants; who neg
lects his farm and his family to go to town and tell how to
save his country when he should be at home saving his crops.
A farmer is a man who sows good seed; takes good care Of
the soil; takes care of his machinery; takes care of his crops,
and keeps his fences up. There are Hayseeds among mer-
chants; merchants who sell poor goods; who trust more in
Providence than in their own labor to get a good business,
and don't stop to think that Providence may be busy some
else. We are the farmers in the jewelry business
we SOW good seed when we sold those watches and clocks
way back in the seventies. They were good ones and es-
|tablished our reputation, and has given us a good, full crop
of business. We are sowing the same kind of seed now.
We Sow
good seed when we advertise in The LEADER and we have
GROUNDS to expect a heavier crop than usual this
fall.

A Narrow Escape.

Carrie Johnson, a member Of the
Beloit Orphan Home family, was on
her way to Canton last Friday after
noon and when neal the middle Of
the railroad bridge discovered a train
from Canton rapidly approaching
around the yard curve. The girl with
rare presence of mind went TO the
side of the track and taking hold Of
the projecting timbers lowered her
self out of one danger to face another.
The train passed in q moment and
the engineer saw the brave little
girl suspended from the side of the
bridge. The train was stopped and
backed up but the girl had fallen into
the river, being unable to regain the
bridge after the train passed. For
tunately the water was not very deep
and the girl was taken from the river
and carried back to the depot, when
Gudmund Skartvedt, n Of the Of
ticialS of the home was notified. Mr..
Skartvedt went to the depot at once
and took the girl to his W home
and secured the services of DR.. Nor
rison who found that her back was
injured in falling from the bridge.
Mr.. and Mrs. Skartvedt are giving
the unfortunate girl every care pos
sible and will keep her until she Is
able to go back to the Home. The
girls presence of mind and courage
saved her from a horrible death on
the bridge.

TO tear down the character of
others: There is no use in it.
