While at work at the zinc works last
Friday morning John j. Cox was SER
iously injured. He was at work with
other men hoisting a heavy iron gate
into place when chain on the hosting
tackle broke letting the gate drop. John
was struck over the right eye, cutting
him deeply and rendering him uncon-
scious and causing conclusion of the
brain. He did not regain Consciousness
until he was taken to DR.. Ludden's
Office and the wound treated. He is
now, however, doing very we'll and
bids fair to recovery without per-
manent injury. AS the weight of the
gate is about 1900 pounds it seems
almost miraculous that he escaped
death.

MISSIONARY MEETING
A Movement in the Interest OF
Church Unity.

Mrs. W. S. Ross, who attended the
Woman's missionary meeting recently
held in Madison, has kindly furnished
the Democrat the following in regard
to the meeting and it purposes:
The Jubilee meeting of Woman S
Missionary Societies, held in Madison
on Tuesday, March 21, was most
interesting and instructive one.
Fifty years ago women first banded
together to give organized help to the
cause of missions, and for the past five
or six months commemorative meetings
have been held in many cities, and will
continue for some time. A large meet
ing was held in Milwaukee in October,
and there will be fourteen more held in
Wisconsin. 1t is entirely interdenomi-
national and is step toward church
unity, and the forward movement sc
urgently advocated at the general con
vention held in Cincinnati last October
In Madison there were two sessions
held in the large Presbyterian church
/ missed the morning session, reaching
the city just in time for the luncheon,
given in the basement Of the Methodist
church.
It was an unusually fine luncheon,
prepared and served under the direction
of two ladies of the Episcopal church.
The tickets were 35c; and $50 women
sat down together and thoroughly en-
joyed both luncheon and company.
At two o'clock the special rallies
assembled, the Presbyterian, Congre-
gational and Episcopal women meeting
in different rooms in the Presbyterian
church. The Methodist and Baptist
women were in different rooms in the
Baptist church. An hour was spent in
this way, and at 3 o'clock all met in the
Presbyterian church for the general
exercises, which were conducted in an
able and digniied manner by Mrs.
Updyke, wife of Rev. Mr.. Updyke.
After an organ prelude, prayer and
singing, representatives of each rally
were called upon for reports. An offer
ing for expenses was collected, and the
afternoon address was given by Miss
Peterson, Baptist missionary from
the Orient. She proved an eloquent
and impressive speaker, shedding much
light upon the crying need and great
benefits of foreign missions.
Last week meetings were also held in
Beloit, GAINESVILLE and Delavan, and
they will begin on April 1S in Sheboy.
