town clerk s office, to be acted upon by
the electors at town meeting, asking
for $4700 for personal damages, $3.50
for medical treatment, services of
nurses, etc, and $3.50 for lost wages, a
total of SIS, 000 Under the laws of this
state such bill has to be brought be-
fore the electors for action at town
meeting before further action can be
taken. The demand for S., 900 is the
result of an accident to Mr. Rogers
which occurred while he was shoveling
gravel at Crescent park pit, and which
he claims resulted from negligence upon
the part of the town.
Michael MILO died at his home about
two miles west of this village Sunday
morning at $50. Mr. MILO was born in

west of this village and has since made
that his home.

Mrs Lars l. Dahle died on Tuesday
afternoon at o'clock, at the home of
her son, Ole l. DAZZLE, aged 81 years and
two months. On Saturday of last week
she suffered a stroke OF paralysis, which
was the cause of her death. One
strange thing about Mrs Dahle was
that she had possession of her mental
faculties for nearly day after she re-
ceived the stroke, when she gradually
grew weaker and began to fail until
the end came when she fell quietly
asleep. She realized that she was soon
to be called home and spoke of it to
those around her.
The passengers on the Northwestern

Grove three stones were thrown through

one man who was sleeping in seat
was struck on the arm and forehead,
inf1icting painful injuries. A woman
also was struck on the arm. Assem-
blyman Curtiss had narrow escape.
1t is believed the stone throwing was
the act of some one who has grudge
against the road.

One of the many Edgerton visitors
met with an unusual reception as he
aighted from the train in Stoughton
after completing the trip. This partic-
ular man may be said to have met with
real warm reception. That is, he
was met by his wife, who, as one of
the bystanders remarked, knocked the
unfortunate man from under his hat.
1t seems that the woman suspected her
husband had imbibed too freely during
his stay in the Rock county town and
wended her way to the station in order
to make public disapproval of her hus-
bands actions. The incident caused NO
little excitement among the people
gathered at the depot.

w I Hart, manager and partner of
the M Boub Brewing Co, was found
dead in a room at the New London
hotel at o'clock Thursday morning. A
gas jet in the room was open and the
room was filled with gas. Hart went
to the hotel at 6 o'clock Wednesday
evening and at his request was assign
ed to room. The proprietor of the
hotel noticed the fumes of gas escaping
from the room Thursday morning, and
breaking in the door found Hart lying
dead on the bed. Hart evidently turned
on the gas soon after entering the
room. Business worries are thought to
have been the cause of the suicide.
Hart was 81 years of age.
! Mr. and Mrs Walter Helms returned
Friday evening from Arizona where
they have been sojourning since last
November. Two and half acres of
their ten acre tract, located about six
miles from Phoenix, were set out with
orange trees just before their depar-
ture and in the course of three or four
years the grove will be in bearing.
Back of Edward Amerphol's green
house, 334 South Main street, at half
past six Monday morning, George JAG
OLSON, an employee of the GAINESVILLE
Floral Co, pulled and yanked long
fish line which had become entangled
with some supposed snag on the bottom
of the river about three rods from the
bank, and presently brought to the
shore line gruesome object calculated
to give most even-tempered fisher
man the shudders. 1t was the body of
a dead man, covered with river slime
and ooze, anc might easily have been
mistaken at little distance for mere
bundle of mud-soaked garments. So
far as could be determined by rather
thorough examination on the river
bank, there was no evidence whatever
of death by violence.

Sheep and Wool Gossip.

There appears to be a difference of
opinion among local wool growers as
to sheep values, owing to the uncer-
tainty of future prices of wool and
mutton, and trading is unusually slow
for this time of year. A recent deal
in coming yearlings is the sale of
about 1000 head by L. N. Runya an, of
the Bear Paw country, at 1915 per
head.
1t is reported from Fergus county
that Rea Bros. of Billings, have been
seeking sheep bargains in that section,
and have purchased about $500 mixed
yearlings at 81 per head. A recent
deal at Billings is the sale of about
1900 lambs that had been fed on sugar
beet pulp, alfalfa and corn, and which
brought the handsome price of six
cents per pound.
Returns from the sale OF their last
years. wool clip have been received
by the Holmer.F lsgler company, part
of the clip having been shipped to
Boston, and the remainder-consist-
ing of wool from sheep that had been
dipped-to q Chicago wool securing
company. The latter, which included
the tags from the entire band, showed
. shrinksge of about 60 per cent. and
Melted 16} cents per pound. As the

Ole G. Osnes has also received re.

The Gingerbread Tree.

There is a species of palm, growing
to n height of from twenty-five to thir-
ty feet, in Egypt, Arabia. Abyssinia
and Nubia which produces its fruit in
long clusters, each containing from
100 to 200. These fruits are of an
irregular form, of a rich yellowish
brown color and are beautifully pol
ished. In upper Egypt they form part
Of the food Of the poorer classes Of in
habitants, the part eaten being the
ibrous, mealy husk, which tastes al
most exactly like gingerbread, whence
the popular name Of gingerbread tree
In Egypt. Hyphoene thebaica Is the
botanical name Of this palm.
