break into print one way or the
other, by fair means or foul. Art
the younger (although with an
old face for business and a desire
to appear Young as to looks So

week he sprung worm story
that was weird in it's construct

an extremely imaginative mind.
But the story was too raw tor

too wormv to digest. This

TWO OR THREE WEEKS
Indian Summer Said to Be
Delayed---Arrive First of
November, Maybe.

The writer on the Rhinelander
indicator has sounded the fol
lowing joyful note concerning
the DELAYED arrival of Indian
summer. Eope he is right:
According to the forecasts OF
the United States weather bur-
eau. Indian summer will not be
along for a matter Of two or
three weeks, and is not due this
wear until the latter part OF this
month or the fore part OF next.
1t seems that the beautiful fall
weather was more in a way OF a
special gift of providence to kind
of even things for the weather
that was dished up to us last
spring, while the weather OF the
past week may be taken as a
harbinger of that to follow a
month or so from now. Any
way two or three weeks OF Indian
summer next month would fit IN
nicely, and we will enjoy it all
the more if the tail of Hallev's
comet don't swipe us off the
earth in the meantime. :

A Nothing to Nothing Game
Resulted Between Toma-

urday.

1t was q nothing to nothing

the football game on the home
grounds Saturday afternoon be-
tween Tomahawk and Eagle

came from start to finish was
we'll PLAYED and holly contested
and butfor one error on the part
of Eagle River that team would
have won.
The game was clean, there
being an absence ofjangling and
dirty work on the part of any
PLAYER or players. Tomahawk S
team are clean, manly fellows
and they put up the article foot
ball as it should be.
The gamestarted at 3 o'clock
with George Hali, D. Jefry and
Lawrence Kuehne acting officials.
Eagle River won the toss
and chose to defend the north
goal. The home team kicked off
TO Tonahawk, who advanced
the ball to the 20-yard line. Ball
was put in scrimmage and went
to Eagle River on downs. Eagle

and half of the goal Eagle

to try half-back run but before
the quarter could pass the ball a
Tomahawk player hurdled the
line and the quarter lGander)

Eagle River was penalized 10
yards. Ball was put in play on
15-yard line, Engelstead trying
for a drop kick. The kick was
beauty but owing to stiff wind
the ball was forced a little wide.
Here Eagle River lost it's only
chance during the game of scor-
ing. After some scrimmaging IN
Tomahawk's territory, time was
called.
In the second half Tomaha wk

Engelstead's work in foiling
the visitors's forward pass was
excellent, as was also the tack
ling of Scheribel
Cook was always III on the IN
reference of the Tomahawk
team and never failed in mailing
his man.
The visitors starred IN the for

gains on short end runs. Their
line however, was not the stone

MADE INVESTIGATION
Special Legislative Commits
sion on Water Power Take
Testimony in This Section.

Testimony in This Section.
The commission appointed by
the last legislature toinvestigate
the water power situation in the
state finished their tour Of the
lower Eagle chain and Big and
Little Twin lakes reservoir last
Wednesday night. leaving imme-
diatelv for Rhinelander, going
overland by automobile.
Wednesday while the commits
I sion were at Long lake dam, the
testimony of six of the seven
Eagle River representatives who
accompanied the commission
EU. /. Nenacheck, E. A. Everett,
Mart Hirzel, Geo. F.. O'Connor,
Finn Lawler, Daniel Graham J
was taken regarding the water
conditions, past and present, on
this chain and Wisconsin river.
The commission on it's visit to
Hackley on Tuesday interviewed
settlers upon Big and Little
Twin lakes and their testimony
as to the conditions now exist
ing taken. There it was found
that no even stage of water had
been maintained by the Improve
ment company but that a differ
ence of somewhere around three
feet existed there this year and
was considered detrimental by
the majority residing ON those
lakes.
The upper Eagle cham was
skipped, the commission passing
up Three Lakes on its trip, as
was also the reservoir chain at
head of the Deerskin river
Members of the Wisconsin Val
ley Improvement company &C
companied thecomnission on its
investigation III this section and
it is understood went as far as
the Manitowish.
Saturday the town board Of
Eagle Rive. received telegram
from George Whiting, president
of the Improvement company,
asking why the town persisted
in holding up water in this reser-
voir. The same day Neal Brown
of Wausau telegraphed that he
was drawing up papers to bring
action against the town prevent
ing its holding back water that
was needed below Answer has
been made these gentlemen by
the town chairman that 4 head
Of loft. Gin. will be maintained
at all times at the Otter Rapids
dam and that from MAY to
October head Of | life. Gin. will
be held, and furthermore that
the town wished at all times to
work in unison with others re-
garding water rights but must
protect it's own interests.
1t is not the intent of the News
to go into details this week over
the commissions visit and the
attitude now being taken by the
Improvement company, but will
undoubtedly give the matter
more space in future issue.

PATENT MILKING MACH
INES AT The FAIR

On Dairy Day at the Seattle Fair
and for several days thereafter the
dairy COWS in the stables and in
tents on the Grounds will be milk
ed by machines. Pres. Ross of the
State Dairyman's Association says
regarding them:
These little machines, (either
hand or::power), will revolutionize
the dairy business, when once their
merits are fully recognized" Milk
ing by machinery may sound a
little phony' to some folks but its
success, and what used to be a
hard task under the new system
will be a decided pleasure. p" THE
great raw-back to the dairy bust:
ness is in finding men who are cap.
able and willing to do the milking,
but with these little machines a a.
year old boy can milk as many COWS
as five men under the old. system
and do it better"

SUFFRAGiSTS ORGANIZING
AMENDMENT CAMPAIGN

The Washington State Suffrage
Association is now making the most
complete canvass of the state ever
undertaken. The county and pre-
cinct chairman are compiling COM
plete lists of voters in their districts
with the view of ascertaining the
status of suffrage sentiment turnout
the state. So far as the canvass
has progressed, the results are graft
flying to the leaders, who hope to
carry the amendment to the state
constitution, granting women the
right to vote, at the polls in Novem-
Der, 1910. A chairman has been
appointed for each county, who in
turn selects the precinct chairmen.
Each voter will be asked his views
on the subject of equal suffrage and
whether he means to vote for the
amendment. From all parts of the
state, pledges of financial aid are
coming in at the suffrage head
quarters. They run from twenty
five cents to S25 a month. A tidy
campaign fund will be the result, to
| defray the expenses ofothe contest.

The SOCIAL LIFE THAT WAS

While country life has gained So
cially in many ways it has also lost
in large measure some social featur-
es which were the joy of young peo-
pie in former days. Thirty or more
years ago, and less than that in
some sections, spelling bees. sing
ing schools, debating societies and
other similar doings were numerous
affording untold pleasure and no
small benefit. They made a need
full break in the ordinary routine Of
farm life, and today many loo
back longingly to the times of their
youth when merry parties of young
people, after the days work was
over, drove to the country school
to hear or take part in singing, de-
batting questions, or in spelling ere
another down.
Country life today. socially and
in other ways, is unquestionably
better than it was, and books, pap
crs and other material are now
plentiful in the farm home as once
they were scarce. Still it is doubt
full if any of the young people of to-
day get more genuine satisfaction
out of the advantages they possess,
than their fathers and mothers
got in their youth from the
social doings which frightened
many a long winter night.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS

Whole peppers are better for sea-
soning soups and sauces than ground
pepper.
Jelly cake should have the edges
pared off carefully to make it roll
e,sier.
For removing from the hands the
stains made by pairing fruits and
vegetables use oxalic acid.
Old, loose kid gloves worn while
ironing will keep the hands in good
condition and free from callouses.
Faded plush may be frightened
by brushing it very lightly with a
clean sponge dipped in chloroform.
To make butter scotch mix four
cupfuls Of brown sugar, two cupfuls
of butter and three tablespoonful of

hands in good condition summer
and winter.
To brighten the eyes. take oc-
casionally, just before going to bed

When cut flowers become wiited
after awhile they may sometimes
be freshened by cutting off the ends
with sharp knife and dipping the
stems in hot water for a moment.
Silk may be restored by sponging

A simple method for making pop
corn balls is to boil the molasses
until it hardens in cold water and
then pour it, still hot, over the pop
corn. Butter your hands we'll and
then work the corn into balls.
To fatten the hands take equal
parts of cocoa butter, oil of sweet
almonds and refined wax. Melt
and stir until cold and then work
into homogeneous mass with few
drops Of perfume. Rub well into
the skin at night.
White spots on the nails, usually
a sign of interference with the pro-
per nourishment of the nails, may
usually be removed by putting on
the nails paste made by melting
together refined pitch and gum. of
myrrh.
A bit of glue dissolved in skim
