SISTERS ARE THANKFUL.

The Sisters of st. Francis of the
Holy Family Hospital thank most sin
cerely the good ladies, who forgetting
the comfort of their cozy homes and
unmindful of the inclement weather
worked most zealously, and nobly for
them on Hospital Day.
They also thank the kind people who
so generously contributed either by
cash or by check on the day.
The liberal advertisement given
Flower or Tag Day by the press and by
the managers Of the Vaudette and
Crystal theatres helped on the good
work in no small measure.
Thanks are also due to the kinl la
dies and gentlemen who during the
year visited the sick, read for them,
and sent fruit flowers. books and pa
pers. SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS.

TAG DAY..

Saturday last was the annual tag
day" set apart to raise by united effort
funds Tor the benefit of the Holy Fa-
mily hospital, Two new features were
the use OF paper carnations to mark
the persons who had donated and the
rule against repeating. This last re-
lieyed from further solicitation every
one bearing the red flower of initiation.
There was no rule however against
voluntary repeating and many gener-
Gus citizens deemed the cause worthy
of multiple contributions. The ladies
lay in wait at all vantage points and
few wayfarers escaped. Toward noon
a person undecorated was rarity.
Despite The inclement weather about a
thousand dollars was raised which com
pares favorably with former years.

CITY COUNCIL NOTES.

The owners of property on York street
with one or two exceptions who have
been ordered to lay water service
laterals preparatory to the paving to
be done on that street have asked the
city to do this work at the city's ex-
pense. The committee temporarily in
charge of water affairs did not feel
justified in assuming this burden and
referred the matter to the city council.
Oscar A. Alter appeared at the meet
ing and was given the floor. He urged
that the city do this work and said that
increase in patronage and better health
conditions would more than compensate
the city, that the city would soon be
compelled by the Railroad Commission
anyway and it would not be- fair to
compel IL e owners to do this work
when others will later get it gratis,
and that the matter will be taken to
Madison for ruling if the request is
not granted. A compromise by Alder
man Plumb was offered and the matter
put over.
The 20 inch sewer on South 7th
street was ordered installed The
question whether the sewer district
or the city should pay was left for later
action. Rahr Sons Company volun-
teered to pay $500 toward the cost.
Appeals to the circuit court have
been taken from the disallowance OF
the claims for damages to two horses
injured last winter on Sth street
bridge.
Every member of the council signed
petition asking the mayor to appoint
himself on the new water commission.
He appears loath to do it and deferred
action. Only one member has been
confirmed and the finance committee is
still running the plant.
The people who demonstrated last
summer against the granting of a
saloon license at 10th and Clark streets
have put in a counter protest TO the
re-awakenlng of the movement. A
license having been refused the charter
prohibits any further action for the
place to the same parties until May
lst next.
The Park Committee reported that
Reinhardt Rahr cannot be induced to
withdraw his resignation from the
Park Commission. The resignation
was accepted.
The mayor proposed a method OF
doing paving without concrete iounda-
tion by letting the cost bc met from
ward funds and then raising the as
sessment of abutting property TO get
the money back.
The board of public works reported
detailed specifications for three kinds
of paving for York and other streets,
required by statute. The abutting
property owners can choose from vitri-
fled brick, asphalt and asphaltic con-
crete.
The city treasurer's report showed
that the receipts for the month were
,466 of which So, 100 was for the
Gulickson farm.
The committee on license reported
that license be granted to Emil
Density, corner Eighth and Quay
streets. The report was adopted.

ter" is the timely advice of Mr..
Ferris.
Continuing, the speaker said in re-
gard to friendships formed by young
people, that it was natural for boys
and girls to fondle one another. fla
boy wishes to accompany girl TO
church or anywhere he should not
meet her on the street, but call at her
home and be proud of it. II a girl is
ashamed to have her parents know the
boy she goes with she had better drop
him and drop him quick. Their court
ships should not be discontinued after
marriage as it often is "when court
ship ceases this side of the grave then
the home fails"
In closing Mr.. Ferris said that true
friendship was a grand thing. The
true friend was the one who showed
consideration, love and affection to YOU
during your lifetime, and did not wait
until death overlook you and then
entered your home for perhaps the
first time in twenty years to strew
flowers before you, flowers that they
never thought to shower upon you
during all your life.
The lecture lasted an hour and half
and the humorous, impressive manner
of the speaker, combined with the
truths presented held the undivided
attention of the large audience.
Supt. Limmers introduced the
lecturer.

INCENDIARY SUCCESSFUL.

On the evening of October 7th, an
|attempt was made to destroy the store
and saloon building and dance hall of
Henry Detjen at Glover, about five
miles south of the city. Oil was pour
ed in large quantity upon the outside
of the saloon structure and the building
fired. Timely discovery saved the
premises. Last Saturday evening, ex-
actly week after the first attempt,
another effort WAS made, this time
successfully.
Awaiting later hour than before
the culprit pursued the same plan and
reduced the place to smoking ruins.
The occupants were able to save a
piano and some of the furniture. The
| fire attracted farmers from miles
around but there were no facilities for
staying the flames after the headway
gained before discovery.
The Detjen place was a modern
structure and one of the best combina-
ton establishments of its kind in the
county.
Representative of the, state fire
marshal's Office who had been investi-
eating the first attempt are still con-
Quoting inquiries. Mr.. Detjen carried
$2500 insurance and the loss is at
least three times that amount. 1t
would seem TO be incumbent upon the
authorities ,c make an unusually per-
sistent effort to bring to justice the
scoundrel guilty of this atrocity.

GOVERNMENT REFUSES TO HELP.

The plan to have the United States
Government assume the expense of
maintaining the inner harbor in other
words, OF dredging the river, has been
reported upon adversely by the govern
ment board of engineers. A favorable
report from this board was necessary
step in getting the project through.
Maj. Bromwell reported in favor Of
having preliminary survey and this
the board does not approve, intimating
that as the governm ent has spent a
large sum in the arrow head outer
harbor it is ''up to- the city TO keep
the inner channel navigable. The
governments general rule is to do no
work inside the lake shore line but ex-
ceptions are made where it can be
shown that nearly all of the traffic en-
tering and departing is merely going
through the city and does not origin
ate or end there. The city made an
attempt to get within this exception.
Public meetings were held and com
mittee sent to Washington. The city
is now invited by Maj. Bromwell, en-
gineer of the Milwaukee district, to
submit new figures and written argu-
ments in an attempt to get the engine
ers to reverse their decision.

When A. j. Schmitz gets interested
he is one of the most outspoken men in
the game of politics. When ne re-
solves to act he is all energy and an
open enemy as well as a devoted friend
He is never cipher in a political cam
paign and the peculiar feature of his
case is that those he opposes never
cherish resentment toward him. When
Schmitz goes into a fight he wants to
have the matter clearly understood
and when the fight is over that ends
the whole thing with him. No one
gets ''mad at him" though one would
rather not encounter his opposition.

FLOUR.-A sack of flour was sent to
our house one day last week, by MIR.
James Bennett, who keeps grocery
and provision store near the bridge.
Bennett has always been friendly with
printers, and he ought to be, for he
sells at such low prices that he does a
very extensive business, and shares
his profits with those who are most in
need. We advise our friends who
wish to purchase cheap, to give Ben
nett call when they come to town.

ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES.
FIFTY YEARS AGO.

AN OLD FRIEND IN TOWN.-We
were pleased to see in town this week,
Lit. Col. X. X. Jones, who arrived by
Wednesdays boat, and welcomed by
all our citizens. Although the colonel's S
visit to our county was on far more
important business than attending
fairs, he did not forget his old home
and friends, but brought with him
some of the splendid products of his
farm in Illinois-tho model farm of
that great state--to assist in making
our county fair interesting to visitors.
The colonel is a man of large wealth,
and could live in ease and happiness
all his life, but the spirit of patriotism
burns within his breast, and he is fore
going the peace of domestic life for the
cause Of his country. Through his
energy and influence alone, one or two
regiments have already been raised in
Illinois. Not satisfied with this, he
comes to our state to organize regi-
ment OF Scandinavians-a class of
people whom he has always admired,
and who are devotedly attached to
him for the interest he has always
manifested in their welfare There
cannot be doubt OF his success in this
undertaking, for wherever Col. Jones
leads the Scandinavians will follow.
A company will be raised in this
county in few days.
Chas. Gustaveson, Esq, of Mani
towoc Rapids, has been commissioned
to recruit for the regiment in this
county. He is OF military stock, was a
soldier in Mexico, and is just the man
to command company. Success to
the scandinavian Legion.
