Died in Madison, Buried Here.

The news of the death of Henry j.
Kane at his home in Madison was a
great shock to his many friends in this
city. He died of pneumonia, after an
illness of only two days.
Deceased was the youngest son of
the { te Mr. ! Mrs. Francis Kane,
and as born in Mineral Point "A years
ago. On June IS, 1891, he was married
to Miss Catherine Collins, who with
two children, Shirley and Kenneth, are
left to cherish the memory Of a kind
and loving husband and father.
When fourteen years old Mr.. Kane
entered the employ of the Mineral
Point Zinc company, and through care
full and efficient industry he was pro-
NOTED until he became engineer, which
position he held for many years. Five
years ago he moved his family to Be
lott, where they lived for two years,
after which they moved to Madison so
the children might have the benefits of
the schools at that place.
Besides his family deceased leaves
one brother, James, of Wausau and
one sister, Mrs. William Leonard, Of
Madison.
The body was brought to Mineral
Point and the funeral held Oh Saturday
from the home of his brother-in-law.

No Christmas Dividend.

Upon interviewing Santa Claus it is
learned that there is very slim pros
pect of the creditors of the defunct
bank getting a dividend of even one
per cent as Christmas gift. Gift
Think of it, to have something which is
yours handed to you as a gift
1t is Santa's opinion that a certain
company holding funds in trust could
easily let loose of ten per cent or more
at this time. That surely would be a
grand wind fall, one that would fill
stockings, coal bins, larders, etc.
Lawyers laws, the rules of practice
and the learning toward technicalities
with those who have the power to push
and hurry up matters failing so to do,
are the principal cussed causes.

Butter Prices.

In treating this subject the Milwsu-
kee News says;
The Chicago butter and egg board
has decided to do some reforming with
in itself and not wait for a decision of
a United States court in the case the
federal government is instituting under
the antitrust law. 1t has decided to
do away with its price committee "as
an experiment until March l, 1918, -
and let the prices brought by actual
sales regulate the market,
ut has been charged by the govern
ment officials that the price committee
sets the prices arbitrarily, or through
the medium of fictitious bids This has
been denied by the board. But the
price committee has steadily sent prices
up and that at times when so far as
the public could find out everything
pointed to an abundant supply but no
demand reason for the advance.
1.-The Chicago board is not 'the
whole thing" in the butter and egg
market, but it is one of the controlling
factors. Government officials at Chi
cage are now watching to see what
Elgin does. If Elgin abolishes the
price committee system and prices seek
a natural supply and demand level the
belief that there has been unwarranted
manipulation and control will be sus-
tanned. If not something else must be
done.
"As the butter and eggs boards,
whether by agreement or not, always
manage to keep their actions in Sc
quence, it is believed that whatever
action one takes will be followed, at
least in price results, by the others.
So some relief to the consumers may
be in sight. Such is devoutly to be
hoped. And if government threat of
action can bring relief to the consumer
to the producer as well-in the case
of butter and eggs, there is hope that
similar relief can be brought in other
necessities. "
