William A. Jones died at the age of
68 years and as men go in our time he
was not old AS the mellowing infu-
ence of years settled upon his shoulders
attached TO his fellow men. He came
into his own in the mining industry at
time when its greatest rewards were
being reaped and had he been spared to
that fraternity, that both honored and
loved him, his usefulness would nave
meant more to the maximum develop
ment of the field than any other factor
connected with it.
1t is true that no man connected with
the zinc mining industry of Southwest
Wisconsin was better known; no man
more trusted; no man upon whom
rested greater responsibilities; no man
better informed and thereby better
qualified to work out the best possible
results. 1t will be difficult task to
fill his place because his fitness is based

Let US become reconciled to the old

time death has confronted life. 1t
comes with crushing weight as we
stand with barred heads and grief bur
dened hearts, within the grim shadows
of the mysterious beyond, but there is
consolation to the living that through
this agency we call death there has
come infinite rest to our loyal brother.
The man we knew through all the
years of our lives will cease for US in
mortal form. No more will his voice
be heard in council or his strong arms
raised to help his dependent ones. But
across the intervening space of years
and years the inspiration of his life and

when the clouds hang low and dark and

and of victory of another world to

Plank to Safeguard Public Against
Spectators, Etc.

The Republican party, in convention
assembled in Madison last week, re-
spending to the state motto" For
ward '-renewed its pledges to main
tain fundamental democracy and serve
the cause of human betterment.
There was quite complete harmony
on the question Of platform. The plat
form contains number of new and inn
portant pIanks. One Of these pledges
elevation of the standard of rural
schools, making them more adaptable
to the needs of the various communi-
ties, especially in respect to the teach
ing of agriculture and domestic econ
omy and also to the use Of public
schools as social centers.
Another plank pledges the enactment
of law providing for a minimum scale
of wages for women.
Another very important plank pro-
vides for the aid of destitute mothers
in order that they may keep their chill
dren at home and give them mothers
care instead Of having them separated
and sent to a public institution. The
plan is to pay directly to these mothers
at least a portion Of the public funds
that are now devoted to maintaining
the children of destitute mothers in
public institutions,
Still another plank provides for legis-
lation that will safeguard the public
against speculative stock company en-
terprises, generally designated as get
rich-quick aIIurements. One plank in
the platform pledges legislation that
will make it reasonably easy for new
parties to get position in the party
column on state and election ballots.
The nation and most Of the states
now feel the impulse of the great on
ward movement in which Wisconsin
has been the pioneer, through the lead

Tribute by Rev. NJ, Chase.

The sudden death Of William A.
Jones in this city, on Tuesday, Sept. II,
is more than a passing event. He has
filled too large a place in the history
and the heart of the community and
state to give his death only a passing
notice. Born Sept. 27, 1874, in South
Wales, in his fifth year he came with
his parents, John and Phoebe Jones, to
this state, and to the Welsh Settlement,
near this city-their future home. His
primary education being completed at
home, he graduated later from the
Platteville normal.
Mr.. Jones began his career as prin-
cipal of the Mineral Point high school.
For two terms he was county superin-
tendent of schools; later he was cash
Ter of the old City bank until it was
merged into the First National, of
which he became vice president which
position he resigned in 1897 to accept
the appointment of Indian commits
sioner under President Mckinley, an
Office which h held with integrity
and efficiency for eight years.
On his return to this city, Mr.. Jones
became general manager of the Mineral
Point & Northern railway and after
wards its president.
Mr.. Jones was also one of the original
incorporators Of the Mineral Point Zinc
company and was always associated
with it, and at his death, he was man
ager of if for the district of Wisconsin.
He served two terms in the state
legislature and term as mayor Of the
city.
He married Sarah c. Ansley, Oct 22
1881 who, with son William Ansley
and three daughters Agnes, Florence,
and Marion survive him. He also
leaves two brothers David B. Jones and
Thomas D. Jones of Chicago.
Such is the record of Mr.. Jones's life.
1t was full of responsibility and honor.
It shows how the people trusted him
and how he won his way in the bust
ness and political world.
But busy as his life was, he always
found time to serve his church and
God. Years ago he became identified
with Trinity church in this city and
ever afterward he was one Of its most
faithful and generous supporters.
Every Sunday saw him, when in health
and in town, at church.
This was characteristic of him in all
hi0 relations in life. How greatly he
will be missed in all these relations is
more than evident, as every one who
has been brought into official relations
with him can testify. Who can num-
Der the friends who, while mourning
the loss Of his presence here, feel that
in the stiffness of the evening hour on
Tuesday last, there closed a life on
earth whose benediction was felt by
all a life of unceasing effort for
others a life without a tinge of NOR
bidness, but radiant with Joy which
chased the shadows from others hearts.
While our sympathy goes out with
out measure 10 the afflicted home. it
goes not into darkness but into light
the light Of Divine comfort and peace,

RECENTLY published reports of the
workings Of the postal savings banks
shows that during the two short years
of their existence they have received in
deposits total Of more than 1923, 600,
900. This isn't a great deal, compared
with the huge sums the other banks re-
ceived, but when the low interest paid
and the small total of deposits accepted
from any one person is considered, it is
seen what a work those banks have
done This especially when it is re-

KITCHEN IDEAS FOR

Have a Small Kitchen In Your

and Strength.

The modern idea of q small kitchen
is one of those where there is plain ad-
vance over the old ideas. One does
not know whether this is a mans idea
or not, but however it came about the
small kitchen which saves steps is an
excellent notion. Few people ordinar-
lily expect more than two people to be
at work in a kitchen, at one time and
to have spaces so great that three or
from the stove to the table, from the
sink to the china closet, where one or
two steps might be, is plainly nonsen-
steal.

It is three hours to Carlo by train,
and every inch of the way is interest
ing. Even on the outskirts OF Alexan-
dria we passed nomadic groups Of Bo-
douins, camping by the side of the
Mahmoudieh canal. Out In the fields,
men and women, dressed alike in the
loose cotton gown Of the country, were
busily at work. The fields We're dotted
with curious doorless structures made
of cornstalks. They are used as tenn
porary homes at certain seasons of
the year, as, for instance, when the
crops are being gathered. Later on I
entered n and found 1t to be not
more than five feet square, one could
not stand upright inside. The place
contained nothing but q few Jars and
cooking utensils. In the winter the
occupants wrap themselves up in their
clothes at night. covering the heads

LEARN TO SAVE YOUR
STEPS in HOUSEWORK
Housekeeping Made Easier
With a Little Thought and
Care to the Arrangement.

After closely studying myself and
Others at work, and noticing the mo-
lions we all perform in the household
tasks, I grouped the causes which
make for the larger part of the inef-
thciency of housewives as follows:
l. The worker does not have all the
1needful tools or utensils at hand before
Sher when she begins work. Therefore,
2. She wastes time and effort walk
3ng to, hunting for, or fetching ingre-
dents, tools or materials she neglected
to have at hand when she began the
task.
8. She stops in the middle of one
task to do something else quite unre-
lated.
4. She lowers the efficiency of good
work by losing time putting tools or
work away, generally due to poor man
agement of kitchen, pantry and closets.
s. She uses a poo tool, or a wrong
one; or works at a table, sink. ironing
board or molding board of the wrong
height from the foor.
6. She loses time because she does
not keep sufficient supplies on hand.
and because she does not keep her tools
and utensils in good condition.
Amy woman can improve The eff
AGENCY of her work by seeing that
she does not violate any of those
causes.

The Mississippi River.

HtcAAi IoNa l. aStolieS.-
Every good 1oWan should add a para
graph after his evening prayer. in the
same devout tone, ~recounting the five
greatest blessings of Iowa. In that list
the third and middle one is the Mis-
slssippi yer. Three hundred miles of
that sublime stream belong to Iowa;
800 miles of matchless beauty.
1t is by Ear the greatest river on
earth. 1t is one of the most sublime
terrestrial objects.
h great river has scarcely yet be-
gun to enter into American life to
shape and mold it. Our nation devel-
oped from the Atlantic westward and
before we reached the river. and trans
portation got an impetus that made it
more than adequate for a time, and
the river seemed more of a %hindrance
than a help to advancement. Our teem-
ing and feverish gambol upon the
green, unbroken continent, loosed from
pent up Europe, made the river seem
slow. But it glided on in silent ma
jesty, like the eternal principles of
the penalties of wandering in the Wild
ness of error have been paid.
The rain that falls on LOCO, 900 square
miles, the most habitable of the earth,
finds return to the sea by the Missis-
sippi. 1t can perform wonders for man
on the way. The vast volume, the
gentle fall, the absence of rocky
chasms, make the river absolutely ideal
for purposes of commerce and industry.
It brings the sea up into the heart of
the land and holds the continent in
its arms.
If 1t flowed in a land of gulch and
defle, of desert or swamp, its sublime
influence might be wasted; but it flows
In a land of milk and honey; of corn
and wine; of springtime and harvest;
OF sun and shower: of glade and frost;
a land in which man reaches his high
est development: where he has the spur
to effort and where effort brings re-
ward.
AS mankind thickens In the broad
reaches of the Mississippi valley. its
gulf must become the workshop Of the
