1t is almost q maxim nowadays that

adays appear in court. In the old days
the great lawyer was the eloquent
lawyer; today the great LAWYER is the
silent one. Then bar regulations were
made literally at the bar. Today they
are made in the offices of the sky

General Bates Uniichted CIGARS.

General William B. Bate of rennes-

half of the south was governor and
then United States senator. His BRAY

wounds, and in a single engagement
three horses were shot from under
him.
''It was habit of the old warrior

continually carry an unlighted cigar

noticed it ever knew the reason of his
failure TO smoke the weed. At the
battle of Shiloh he and brother were

he had a cigar, but no match. The

William D. Hurlbut died at his home
in this city Saturday morning, August
26, 1911. He suffered stroke of pa

to consciousness.
Harry Pease has been at the Prairie

Clarence Baker has resigned his posi-

Mrs. Rose Hubbard, widow of Eph-
Ram Hubbard, who lived on farm on
the Union road, two miles north of
Evansville, took her life by drinking
carboiic acid Sunday morning. She
was found by her adopted son, Samuel
Shaver, about seven o'clock Sunday
morning. He was led to her room by
the smell of carbolic acid and he found
| her in bed CHASTITY white, her life fiut-
tering away, and the bottle which con-
tanned the poisonous liquid was on the
rug by the bedside. Medical aid was
summoned as soon as possible, but she
had passed away before a doctor could
arrive. 1t is thought that grief over
the death of her husband which occurr-
ed some four months ago was the cause
of her rash act

Our First Steam Warship.

The Fulton. which at the time of her
construction in the early thirties was
classed as c steam battery was the
first United States warship that was
propelled by steam. She was built I'M
der the superintendent of Commodore
Matthew Galbraith Perry and at the
time of her completion in 1887 was re-
garded as one Of the worlds wonders
by way Of naval architecture and pow
er at sea. The Fulton was the cause
of no little speculation on the part
of European powers, for at that time
she was looked upon by other nations
as all but invincible. When this Won
der of the sea was put in commission
Commodore Perry, then holding the
rank of commander, was put in COM
mand of her, and he presently came to
be called the father of the steam
navy" The Fulton was built pri-
marily for defense Of New York har-
Dor, but she served as we'll to demon
strate the practical utility of steam
power for warships.-New York Times

is accused of theft the heads of the
village make a decoction of herbs and
put into the essence about grain OF
ground pepper. The liquid is then
lightly applied to the eyelid. If the
suspect weeps he is considered guilty.
But the murder test is an improve
ment upon that of theft. The wise
man" of the district draws a vessel of
water, into which he puts some poison.
Then he takes a cows tail and ''as-
perges'' the eyes of the supposed as
sassin. If the man becomes blind he
is pronounced a murderer.

A. r. Host, state highway engineer,
was one of state inspectors who took
a run through this county last week.
He reports that we have several unus-

Fort Atkinson. He speaks very highly
of the roads constructed by Commits
siOper Hoard of macadam and asphalt.
The five mile strip south of this city on
the GAINESVILLE road he states is fine
piece of work.
w. D. Hoard of Fort Atkinson has
received nearly six thousand dollars
from the New Zealand government with
request to purchase bull and several
heifers of the Holstein breed, the same

task of selecting the cattle has been
placed with S. d. Jones and son. of
Watertown and shipment will be made

The entire community was shocked
Monday evening when the news was
spread that Harold Hodge had passed
suddenly from our midst William Har-
old Hodge, eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs.
r. c. Hodge, was born on the NJ. MILO

Follows the State Fair.

Sept. 10, 20, 81, 22 are the dates of
the Walworth County fair at Elkhorn.
These fall in the week following the
state fair, and make it especially ad-
vantageous to the Elkhorn show, for
the reason that it gets large number
of exhibits direct from the state fair
which it would not be able to procure
otherwise. This has been a policy of
the Elkhorn fair for years, and the
wisdom of it was demonstrated forcibly
last year when five solid train loads of
exhibits were shipped direct from Mil
waukee to Elkhorn.
