Forty Hour Devotion at St. Mary. Church


The annual rty-hour prayer took
place on the LIST, End and Bird insts. at
st. Marys church of this city, and it
was great success. About $50 people
availed themselves of the opportunity
and received the sacraments, and it
was especially noticeable that the men
ATTENDED.
The affairs were beautifully decorated
for the occasion with natural flowers
and many burning wax tapers.
The services lasted for three days
and opened each day with mass at $50
a. m. and closed in the evening
with devotion and sermon and bendic-
ton with the Blessed Sacrament at 1880.
Rev Fathers August Birsner Of High
land, John Field of Fennimore, Peter
Eicher of Seymour, NJ. M. Gerend of

Mineral Point assisted the pastor, Rev.
N. Weyer, in the confessional and 9th

Rev. M. M. Gerend, rector of st.
Johns Institute, st. Francis, Wis,

of real spiritual joy for the members Of
ST. Mary's parish and will be long re-
membered by all who attended A col
lection was taken up for the poor deaf
mutes in charge of Rev. Gerend and
netted goodly sum.
The singing rendered during the days
of prayer was in the hands Of the good
sisters who have charge Of the parochial
school and added greatly to the success
of the celebration.
1t speaks well for the members of St.
Mars's and the zeal Of their reverend
pastor when one considers that many
members who attended regularly had
to come a distance of 10 and IL miles
over bad roads.
On Thursday evening when the sol
emn conclusion took place, every avail
able seat Of the large church was taken,
and as thu procession, headed by little
| girls in white dresses and pretty wreaths
on their heads and many altar-boys with
burning tapers, moved through the
aises of the church, while the male
choir chanted the hymns, many were
moved even to tears The chanting OF
the TIE Deum, holy God We Praise
Thy Name, was fitting finale to this
most beautiful service.

AFTER DEER I'M AN AUTO
Mr.. and Mrs. l. A. Bennett, Chicago
Introduce Modern Ideas of Hunt
ing Methods.

Eagle River.-Mr. and Mrs. l. A.
Bennett, Chicago, are the opponents
of a decidedly modern method of
hunting deer.
In their hunting auto they drove
from Chicago to Eagle River in four
days. Another day was required to
get to Buckatoban lake, where they
are following tie trails of the deni-
Zens of the wild
Two tires blew up on the trip one
between Rhinelander and another
Just before reaching Buckatoban
lake.
The machine carries a complete
outfit for the hunting season. There
are tents, cooking outfit, bedding,
provisions, ammunition, guns-for
both Mr.. and Mrs Bennett are ardent
hunters-camera, axes, spades and
other equipment necessary.
The party is prepared for deep
snow, and carries. tire chains, rope
and pulleys.
So far as is known this is the first
time any one ever went deer hunting
in an automobile. It is an innova-
tion planned by the Chicago Hunters
club, and the BENEFITS are the first
to try it out. They will report to
the club and others may try the same
scheme next fall. Mr. Bennett wishes
to get two deer, and these will be
taken to Chicago in the machine.

WISCONSIN NEXTTOHARvARD
University Strong According to the
New Biographical Dictionary
of Men of Science"

Madison.-That the University of
Wisconsin has made the greatest
gains in the strength of it's faculty
in the science departments of any
American university during the last
four years is shown by statistics COM
piled by Prof. j. NICK. Cattell of Cor
nell from the new Biographical Die
tionary of Men of Science
Wisconsin has gained % per cent,
while Chicago has gained Is per cent
and Illinois Is. The University Of
Wisconsin has had twelve of it's
teachers of science added to the
names of the new scientific directory,
and has had none of it's professors
taken out of the directory. 1t thus
makes the best showing of any Amer
lean university.
Next to Harvard, the University of
Wisconsin has the distinction of hav-
ing the largest per cent of increase
in the number of professors who
rank among the first thousand of the
most distinguished scientists. Wis
consin has gained II per cent during
the last four years in this respect,
while Harvard has gained 13 per

BODY FOUND NEAR CAMP
Cullen Purple, Hibbing Mining En-

unknown Way.

La CrOsse.-The body Of Cullen
Purple, aged 20, a young mining en-
gineer, was found a short distance
from the partys deer hunting camp
near Chisholm, Mimi, where he had
gone to spend Thanksgiving.
Whether he was killed by a hunter
who mistook him for deer or was
murdered is not known. 1t is not
definitely known that he had any enc
mics, but a man in his position would
be likely to engender the animosity
Of some in the discharge of his du-
ties.
Purple was the son of Ellis Purple
a prominent resident of Galesville,

He was a graduate of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, class of '05. He

MUCH UNOCCUPIED LAND

Madison.-How to induce people
to "get back to the soil' was the
subject of a conference, held with
State Labor Commissioner J. D. Beck
and representatives of Wisconsin rail-
roads and Wisconsin labor interests
present.
Reports show population is drifting
to the cities at the expense of the
country districts. There is much un-
occupied farming land in the state,
according to the authorities, and it
was agreed that it is essential to the
welfare of the state that this land be
worked and made to produce real
wealth.
The plan Of holding land fairs was
suggested as a solution of the prob
lem. State aid in making it easy for
settlers to take up land was proposed
and the railroad representatives gave
assurance that they would do all in
their power to help the movement /,
Assemblyman Fred Brockhausen of
Milwaukee, representing the state
Federation of Labor; Prof R. r. Ely
and Prof. J. R. Commons of the polit-
ical science department of the uni
versity, and Dean H. L. Russell of
the college of agriculture were pres
ent and gave suggestions.
The outcome of the conference is
likely to be that the legislature will
be asked tC appropriate money to
help settlers make homes in the
country.

Madison to become a part of the rec
ords of the State Historical society
Aaron Gibson, Robinson, Kansas,
former Manitowoc man, who was
lieutenant in Company A, forwarded
the records to Mr. Anderson. There IS
q register of the command with many
names which are familiar here, Com
pany A having been recruited from
fhis county almost entirely, and other
papers.
The documents are well preserved,
though age has faded the ink and on
some Of the papers it is hard TO MAKE
out the entries.
One of the most interesting OF the
documents is that showing the last
assembly in the field before Company
A started for home to be mustered
out. This record bears date OF June,
1864. and gives facts relative TO the
company's work on the battlefield, the
dead and wounded in the engagement,
ETC. The report shows that the COM
pany had thirty-five privates, heu-
tenant, three sergeants, six corporals
and one wagon on the field and there
were four ill and seventeen wounded
in the hospital.
The papers mention the death or
several members of the command and
tell of the wounding of Judge An
derson by the explosion of shell.
During the campaign of less than
two months, in May and June, 1864,
Company A used $3.50 rounds of am
munition on the field, according to
this report.
