bingham has a new fire alarm box
system with simplicity one of its chief
points. 1t is known as annunoiated
system. 1t is similar as far as the out
side is concerned to other fire alarms,
but it is box-like arrangement on a
telephone pole and in it is a two-point
switch. Running from the switch con-
neeted with the telephone wires are
tive insulated wires. When a fire occurs
i'm the town one unloeks the box and
throws the switch into place. This
sends q current through the wire and
connected at the fire station is an ar
rangement similar TO the employees
clock in a mill. This current perfor-
.ates a piece of paper at the station
which indicates what location the fire
is iii. There are four of these boxes
distributed through the town and the
expense of installing them is a very
small amount. being less than SO
where the system ordinarily used
costs about $40 to install.

Our Belfast correspondent writes as
follows:
Several Belfast men have received
proposals of marriage since the new
year rolled in, it is said The ladies have
taken advantage of the chance 10 take
the Initiative. Sad to relate, however,
all have been refused If any of the
maidens fair We're accepted that part
of the story has not leaked out. Sever
al business and professional men have
quietly confessed to receipt of propos-
ais but have refused to divulge the
names of those who have offered them
their hearts and signified their willing
ness to change names. 1t looks very
much as if Leap Year in Belfast isn't
what il is cracked up to be.

A MASTERFUL
MUSICIAN

Services at the Methodist church
Sunday were unusually interesting
and attended by large congregations.
The attraction of the day, for such
it surely was, was the presence
of Prof Waldemar Won Geltch, of the
University of Wisconsin, head of the
department of violin. The theme of
the morning discourse was THE Bat
tlefteld of Life" the central thought
of which was that while life is a
great battle with the wrongs about
us, yet the supreme contest is with
in and that the man who would be a
hero must first conquer his own e
vii disposition. The climax of the
day was at the evening worship.
The auditorium was crowded from
door to alter, chairs were placed in
every available space, and yet many
came to the door and were unable
to obtain sittings. Not in long
time has the church been so taxed
for accommodations. The third ser
mon in the series by the pastor on
the general theme of Love, Court
ship and Marriage, given last night,
was entitled Ideal Courtship." 1t
was an outspoken address in a Wit
al question and was listened to with
closest attention by the large audi
ence. There was some humor mixed
in with the serious phases of the
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1912-01-25
GOV. ROBERT
B. GLENN MAKES
A GREAT I'M
PRESTON

Days Opera House was pretty
well filled with an apprecfative au-
dtenoe to listen to an address by
Governor z. Glenn, ex-governor Of
North Carolina. Mr.. Glenn is a large
man with a splendid address and
very pleasing manner. The fore
part Of his address was historical
and recount of the civil war and
the position of the Blue and the Grey
that had a part in that struggle. His
account of the Southern position in
that war was the most clear ex-
pIanation Of that side of the contro-
versy that we have ever heard. His
eulogy of the soldiers who took a
part in both sides of that struggle
was interesting and very commendablt
He made a friend of every one in his
audience, in the friendly manner in
which he handled the subject. The
latter part of his address was an
urgent call upon the parents to stand
for and help eradicate the growing
evils Of this country especially in
the large cities. We are sorry that
every citizen in Grand Rapids did
not hear him His address was one
Of the most eleyating and inspiring
that we have heard in a long time.
We commend every part of it and
hope that his hearers will help
spread the gospel as he preached it.
Governor Glenn certainly made many
friends in Grand Rapids by the ex-
celIent address that he delivered.

TRIP WEST
Extreme Cold Weather and Lots
of Snow.

The following letter was received
by his wife on Saturday, which ex-
plains itself:
Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada.
Friday, p. m.
This letter is commenced at Med
icine Hat, We started out of St.
Paul, the wind blowing, the tempera-
ture 10 degrees below zero at II a.
NJ During the day it gradually grew
colder and colder by night it was 36
degrees below. The train made fre-
quent and long stops during Wednes-
day night and in the morning at the
Canada boundary it was three hours
late.
At Moosejaw the thermometer was
81 degrees below and that was the
coolest day. The wind blowing, the
snow drifting badly. We left Moose
jaw 20 hours late and this afternoon
another long stop-our engine had
commenced to leak steam,-so stop
ping a passing train we sent back
to Swift Current for another engine
and now we are about twenty-four
hours late.
The country all the way from St,
Paul so far is very very flat-not a
tree in sight anywhere. There is
about a foot of snow everywhere 1t
drifted into the railroad cabs and de
| lays US all day today. Today we
were preceded by a large rotary
plow, (snow plow). Notwithstand-
ing the intense cold, our car is very
comfortable and am well, that is
do not suffer any pain. I eat two
meals a day and educators between
meals.
The train is not by any means
crowded-only nine in my sleeper.
My fellow travellers are a merry
lot and pass the time telling anus
ing stories. I viii try and mail this
somewhere before We get to Van
couver, but it's a question of post
| age stamps.

Il. arrived here about O'Clock.
We left the snow and cold weather
behind US as We commenced to de
scend the mountains on the west side
Here it is warm and pleasant-no
snow The temperature is about so
degrees. am feeling well although
was on trains continually except
one night. from Tuesday morning.
January 8, to January IA. Will
leave tomorrow for Seattle. On talk
ing with fellow travellers and Ca
madam Pacific officials, it appears
that that very cold wave I experien-
ced at Moosejaw last week was the
coolest weather ever registered in
the Northwest. In the $50 miles
from Moosejaw to Medicine Hat we
passed six freight trains with thir-
ty cars each. The engines were
frozen up and deeply imbedded in

MAUD KICKED
THE BUCKET 7

Sam Merwin's mule is dead. Sam
came TO town Monday afternoon and
conducted his usual business and a.
long in the early hours of Tuesday
began to wend his weary way home.
About three o'clock this morning
Sam, two others and the mule ar
rived on Third street south near the
residence Of F. w. Kruger. The mule
decided that this was a good pIcae
to stop (the real reason as to its
stopping was that it was sick, it is
said, After considerable discus
sion lasting about an hour and
quarter, the owner of the mule pro
cured a shot gun and shot the mule
but did not kill it. About seven o.
clock this morning, the city team was
called and the mule, which had in
the mean time died, was removed.
Jack Bakers son will bury the mule
and will take the hide in payment
for his work
