CHANGE OF HOURS
 OF PISGAH SERVICES
Meetings at Fraternal Hall Will Be Held at 3 and 7:3O p. m.
 Daily

The Pisgah services held every after noon and evening in the Fraternal hall are attracting increasingly large audi ences, and the Pisgah evangelists feel that a real revival is going to take place in Birmingham.
 Dr. Oxnam took up the ''Personality of the Devil' last night, and proved to tine entire satisfaction of those present that the Devil was very active individual, and exceedingly alive at the present time.
 Many good church people are missing a lot by not attending these meetings, and the Pisgah evangelists most earn estly request the cooperation of those who are interested in the moral uplift of their city.
 In the course of his remarks the doctor said: |
 Many of us put on our good clothes and good manners, go to church on Sun day, look pious, and sing hymns, but when it comes to a practical application of the things we have said and sung, we are merely hearers and not doers of the word. If we are to help our fellow man we must band together and do something that will show our belief in our Christian life."
 MT. Squires talks on the evils of drunk enness are being we'll received. and sew eral men have asked him to give large Sunday meeting to men only.
 In order to give every one a chance to attend the hours have been changed to in the afternoon and to 7:so at night.

 At the afternoon exercises Attorney General Wickersham. Senator Atlec Pomeron of Canton, Ohio, and former Lieut.. Gov. Francis w. Treadway were the chief speakers.
 MT Wickersham made a strong plea for an independent judiciary and scored the recall as the latest invention of self characterized progressive gov ernment."
 No commercial restrictions impede our common use of the great water ways. Only a vexatiOus revenue tariff burdens the exchange of trade and commerce between us. The aggregate amount of Canadian products Is not large. The amount of duties collected by us upon thim Is inconsistencies the amount collected by Canada upon our exports to her shores is trivial. Her labor is of the same character as ours. No principle of protection to our home industry is therefore involved in es- tablishing the greatest freedom of trade and commerce between the United States and Canada
 "As the freedom of navigation of the lakes has brought wealth and prosper ity to both peoples. so must the inev- itable freedom of commerce between us result in closer intimacy between our people and greater gain to each. The nations will sooner or later bring about this freedom of trade between them
 "The welfare of the states is bound up in that of the nation. Stability of government, a wise conservatism which does not lightly cast off the institu- tions under which we have greatly prospered because of passing abuses these things are essential to domestic happiness and prosperity, as well as to the continuance of peaceful, friendly and profitable relations with our neighbors. The days of isolated national life are past. We can no longer look at our next door neighbors as aliens or strangers. Their interests are in large measure bound up with ours. In the continued and closer union of the Anglo-Saxon peoples lies the worlds best hope for its continued peace and prosperity

Best Stump Eradicator Yet Invented

Thos. Thompson recently quit his job
at the Wooden Ware mill, where he
had been faithful employee for sew
eral years, and moved onto a farm
near Sheldon, which he is proceeding
to clear up and improve. Nothing had
been heard from Tom since he moved
to Sheldon and we all know that he
was hard at work. He came to Lady
smith Saturday and dropped in to say
hello to the News-Budget man and
incidentally tell US of his discovery.
His locality, he says is alive with por-
cupines-he has to get up nights and
drive them away from the house so he
can sleep. He has discovered that por-
cupnes like salt. Salt is cheap and
when scattered around the base of
stump the ''porkies" get busy and
keep busy as long as bit of salt re-
mains. Tom expects to have large
acreage cleared by fall.

Division, had an experience Tuesday
little in advance of anything that
ever happened while he was SOL
diering in the Philippines. He was
'chugging" along toward home on his

when about five miles this side of Owen
a big locomotive suddenly loomed up
above him and the next instant he and
his car left the track. The car was
almost demolished, but Jacott escaped
with a bruised leg. The locomotive
was pulling an extra freight and the
engineer said that he blew the whistle.

very reasonable prices. He however
requires that good substantial buildings
are to be erected by the buyers within

erect large store building on the cor

FLAMbEAU MILL STARTS
TEN MILLION FEET FOR FIRST
SEASONS RUN
CAPACITY so, 900 FEET PER DAY
One of Ladysmith's Big Industries
Established by Home
PeOnle

The new sawmil of the Flambeau
River Lumber Company, located in the
southern part of the city, is nearly
completed, and is expected to begin on
the seasons cut next Monday. The
machinery has already been tried out in
test runs, but the management has
deemed it best that the thousand and
one details of large plant like this be
closely looked after and put in perfect
order before beginning regular opera
tions.
This plant is one of the substantial
and important institutions of our city,
owned and operated by local men, men
whose interests are centered here,
whose profits will be invested here,
adding to the wealth and industrial de-
Velopment of the community.
The officers of this company, James
Mitchell, President; E. K. Hughey,
Vice-President; w. E. Thompson,
Sec. and Treas; are we'll known as
hustlers of the highest degree and men
who have the welfare of the city at
heart.
Few sawmills are better equipped
than this. 1t is substantially built,
with concrete boiler house, constructed
throughout with view to strength,
durability and convenience. 1t is
equipped with an up-to-date band saw,
and system of conveyors and auto
matte devices of various sorts that
reduce hand labor to minimum. From
the time the log enters the mill until
the finished product finally energies,
but little hand labor is required except
to guide the timber along it's devious
pathway of live rolls and conveyors.
Notwithstanding this minimizing of la
Dor, however, the plant will employ
large crew of men in the mill and about
the yard, contributing materially to
the population and thereby to the busi-
ness of the city.
While the owners refuse to make
predictions, experienced men estimate
that the mill will have a capacity of
about 60, 900 feet per day of ten hours.
The firm has about ten million feet of
logs on hand for this seasons run, and
this or higher pace is apt to be kept
up for years to come. A large part of
these logs are at present hung up at
Little Falls, some five miles up the
river, but as the whole drive has been
successfully brought that far, the first
good rains will bring it over the rapids
into the Menasha pond.
An interesting commentary on the
rapid development of modern industry
is furnished by the presence beside this
strictly modern plant Of the old Robert
Corbett mill, now owned and for two

J. H. GORDEN BURNED OUT
Family Escapes in Early Morning
with Their Lives

The farm home of ]. H. Gorden, nine
miles northwest of this city, was de-
stroyed by fire early Saturday morning,
nothing being saved. 1t was large
log house, we'll finished, and was in
sured for $500, which partially covers
the loss. How the fire started is not
known. The whole family had been
out fighting forest fire until IL o'clock
at night and it is possible that some
fire had been carried into the house on
their clothes.
Mr.. Gorden was for many years a
blacksmith in Ladysmith and was a
member of the city council when he
moved onto his farm three years ago.
He intends to rebuild at once.
