Public Gatherings Stopped
at Iron River.

Drastic measures have been taken
bv the towo board of the town of
Iron River in order to prevent the
spread of scarlet.fever and diphtheria
which has been raging there for
some time. At special meeting of

ordered closed, as was all OF the
churches, and all public gatherings
of any nature whatever have been
absolutely prohibited. Children too
will be compelled to stay at home

Local Liquor Dealers to
Fight Indian Cases.
Claim That Unfair Means
We're Used in Getting Them
to Sell Liquor.

The liquor dealers of this city
who were arrested last summer
on warrants sworn out by a
special United States Deputy,
charged with selling liquor to
Indians, will fight the cases
when they come up for trial be-
fore the United States Court
this winter. This decision was
arrived at some time ago and
counsel has already been en-
gagged to prepare the cases.
The local liquor dealers claim
that the methods used in secur.
ing the evidence against them,
was unfair, and it is upon
these grounds that the cases
will be fought. They claim that
the parties to whom the liquor
was sold were painted up so that
it was hard to distinguish them
from a white person. They be-
lieve that the special deputies go
too far in trying to secure evi-
dence against them and the case
will be presented before the
court along these lines it is said.

One Pupil and Mother is Teacher

PHila ielphia North American.
Middletown, N. Y.-At a section
known as Mormon Hollow, in the
town of Mason, Delaware county,
there is the strangest school in the
state. 1t is composed of one pupil,
who is the child of the teacher, Mrs.
Baxter.
The teacher receives S6 a week for
her services and the school is as reg
ularly maintained as though there
were dozens Of pupils. Many pupils
were connected with the school once,
but they have either died, grown to
manhood and womanhood, or moved
away.
The old schoolhouse, which did
duty as the seat of learning for many
years, is now such a dilapidated
structure as to be unfit for school
purposes, and the school is held in a
dwelling, the above of the teacher
and the pupil. "

Funny Things That Sometimes
Happen in Foster.

Last week 7. B. Scott took up a
COW that had been giving him much
trouble. Being unable to find the
owner, he secured the services of
Constable Hamilton to help find the
owner, that he might be brought to
an account for the depredations his
cow had committed. Hamilton
phoned the county over, from Butler
to the state line, but no owner was
found. So they concluded the COW
must belong to the Times push at
Foster, and notified us to come and
get our cow or she would cost us SOC
4 day. We took an inventory of our
stock and found we had none miss
ing. So they concluded to yoke her
and turn her loose. Constable Ham
ilton procured a bale of telephone
wire at the central office and pro-
ceeded to the Scott barn to wire up
the old cow, when he discovered the
cow belonged to him. Hamilton
looked at Scott, and Scott looked at
Hamilton, and then both looked at
the cow. 1t is a good joke on the
Constable, who is trying to keep it a
secret, and course we are not going
