Michael joyce Killed by the Train.

The Chicago passenger train, due at
this station at A :39 p. M, ran down
Michael Joyce of this city at the Han
erville crossing Wednesday, from which
injuries he died a few hours later.
Joyce was engaged in hauling water
for the tobacco field of And. Augustine
and had driven squarely across the
track when the train struck him, throw
ing him fifty feet into the ditch. The
wagon was smashed to kindling but
the team with the front wheels escaped.
The injured man was brought to Ed
gerton by the train and taken to the
home of his son-in-law, H. I. Sweeney,
where an examination by Drs. Nc
Chesney and Cleary showed that his
collar bone, four ribs and left leg were
fractured. The injuries were so seri-
GUS that he failed gradually and passed
away about p. m.
The deceased was native of Ireland,
n years of age, having been resident
of this city for the past fifty years.
Three daughters survive him, Mrs. j..
E. Mullowney, Mrs. H. 7. Sweeney and
Miss Kate Joyce. Funeral services will
be held from st. Joseph's church on
Saturday morning.

Railroad shows will be in Edgerton
Saturday, June 18th. Two perform
ances and grand free street parade.
Good show. Wait for it.
God be with you till we meet
again. At the last service before
leaving for the Holy Land, Rev. Mac
Innis asked all to join in singing the
above entitled hymn. That was three
months ago. The trip has been made.
twenty countries were passed through,
foreign lands and historic cities were
visited, and last Friday night Pastor
MacInnis returned to Edgerton, the
place most dear to him at the present
time. Not only his family, not only
his congregation, but citizens in gen
eral gave to him the hand of welcome
and the warmth of the meeting and
greeting was mutual. On Sunday
morning the Methodist church was
filled with friends who went to hear
again the teachings of the bible as told
by the man just back from the Holy
Land, and the remarks which prefaced
the sermon touched the hearts and
moistened the eyes of many there.
The long absence and the thousand OF
miles travelled detracted not from the
interesting sermons, nor will time eff
| face the benefits derived thereby
Sunday evening the Congregational
church was packed to hear the bacca-
| laureate sermon to the High School
class which Rev. MacInnis delivered.

Tobacco Notes

E. M. Laid has been busy this week
experimenting the planting of 20 acres
of tobacco on each of two farms in
which he is interested. About four
acres has been going into the fields
each day.
A matter that has been under con-
sideration some time, that of discon-
tinuing the Madison branch of the
American Cigar Co., reached a conclu-
sion in the New York office recently.
The West Madison plant will be taken
over by the American Tobacco Co., OF
which George Gary is manager. The
stemming machines installed in the old
Suffer warehouse at East Madison will
be relocated in the West Madison plant
which is larger and has greater storage
capacity, and when rearranged will be
one of the most up-to-date stemming
plants operated by the company. Mr..
H. S. McGiffin, in charge of the Madi-
son branch of the Cigar Co., will doubt
less be transferred to the Sparta branch
which is one of the largest in the state.

BEWARE OF INVITATIONS.

We wish to warn furniture buyers
to beware OF limitations. There are
fakes in furniture the same as in
many other things. An article of
value that has an established repu-
tation is likely to be initiated. Be-
ware of this. Let the imposter show
you the wood from which his furni-
ture is made. Let him show you the
factory mark. Let him prove his fin
ish and workmanship. Idle talk is
cheap but let him who has goods of
quality, prove 1t in some way that
only the best furniture will stand
the test. Our goods are what we
claim for them and what they appear
to be. When some fellow who thinks
he is a furniture man represents to
you that he can sell you goods for
half the money or less. buy them but
be sure that they are genuine. The
fellow who permits his mouth to run
too much, will bear watching and his
goods should always be examined
very carefully before you buy them.
There are factories who turn out
goods for such fellows and closely
initiate furniture of quality. A few
years or perhaps months Of use will
show you what they are. Get his
prices II you please. but be sure that
you examine his goods carefully and
know that they are made by a re-
sponsible factory. The poor fellow
may be honest but he is new at the
business and does not know good
furniture when he sees it. If he has
been faxed, he will fake you. Call
and let us show you our furniture
and make you prices. Also keep your
eye on the handsome suite in the
window and don't wait too long IL
you want 1t. The price on II is less
every day. Learn about this great
prize In furniture.
