Four passenger trains of the 500
line, one of which was the famous
velvet Special" passed through
Wausau Monday over the right of
way of the Northwestern railway.
A wreck, details of which were lack
ing at the local depot, occurred at
Weyauwega somewhere about nine
o'clock last evening, tied up traffic
and disrupted the 500 schedule to
such an extent that the main passen-
ger trains were routed via Wausau
from Medina junction to Marshfield
where the regular line was again
taken. Tracks were cleared at Wey-
auWega about ten o'clock Monday and
the regular schedule of the 500 went
into effect after ten hours delay

MILL BURNS AT IRON RIVER

Ashland, Wis, July 2s-The big
sawmill, owned by the Hines Lum-
Der company at Iron River, was
struck by lightning and destroyed by
fire last night. The damage is esti
mated at over $4,000
The yards and planning mill were
saved after a hard fight. 1t is not
believed, however, that the mill will
be rebuilt. Much of the timber is
also available to the Park Falls mill,
and it is thought that it will be
sawed there.
The Hines company also has mills
at Mason and Hayward, but like
iron River, there is only a limited
amount of timber available.
P. |. Bogie, former superintendent
Of the Iron River mills, has already
been transferred to Park Falls

HAWKINS
From the Hawkins Reporter

Ye junior scribe has completed a
census of our town and village and
reports 253 children of school age
and total population of 500. The
census of 1910 credited us with $40
inhabitants. This would leave us d
growth of 179 of 34.6 per cent in
less than three years. The school
census of 1910 was 1888, making a
growth of IS or 34.5 per cent since
then.

Glen Flora charge of the M. E.
church will be held here Aug. II.
A. G. Moller, president of the
Fuel Supply Co., of Chicago, ac-
companied by his wife and four
children autoed here Friday last and

ing plans for their new wood mill
here. His daughter, Miss Estella,
returned Monday to Chicago.
KEENAN, played baseball with our
boys here Sunday last and was de-
feated easily by score of eight to
four Our boys certainly hit the
ball, in fact the game was character
lied by good hitting and sharp
fielding. A dispute arose in the
seventh inning which, thank heav-
ems, was settled peacefully, after
much Grafton and argument. The
question of an enfield fly" appears
to be technical one indeed. Right
now, our ball team looks good to
us and if the boys can stick togeth-
er as they now line up they are due
to win many games before the sea-
son is over.

pIETZ AND HIS PARDON

According to a decision just an
nounced by the Wisconsin state
board of pardons John Dietz, de-
fender of Cameron Dam, must serve
sixteen years and three months of
mis- life sentence on the murder
charge before a petition for his par
ole can be considered
Ever since Dietz was committed
to the penitentiary, his sons and
daughters, and many friends, have
been working in the hope of secur-
ing a pardon for him. Last fall, when
his son, Leslie, and daughter, Myra,
were giving lectures, they announced
that more than $4,000 signatures of
residents of Wisconsin had been Sc
cured to papers, which We're present
ed to the governor, asking for their
fathers release Numerous attempts
have been made to secure Dietz's re-
lease on various grounds.
The defender of the Cameron Dam
was found guilty in 1911 of the muir
der of Oscar Harp, during the fam
GUS defe of his home, in which
several people were injured. Stevens

Another hope has been blasted for
those individuals who have been sup
porting automobile aspirations on
wheel-borrow income. For several
weeks the rumOr has been going the
rounds of the whole nation that the
Standard Oil Company has bought up
the Ford Automobile Company, and
in order to increase the consumption
of gasoline were going to do away
with agents and sell the Ford tour
ing cars direct to the consumer"
and reduce the price to three cars
for 81 900. 1t sounded good, and about
the only rumor which would have
fallen more pleasantly on the ears
Of those who are long on automobile
ambitions and short on cash would
have been one to the effect that
the Standard Oil people were going
to give automobiles away and take
their profit from such phi:anthro-
pic project by hosting gasoline even
20 notches or more. But the most i'm
portant part of the SO for 81 ,0O0' ru-
NOR is that it is not so. At least,
| if it is, the Ford company does not
know anything about it. They are
now out with a published announce
ment stating that the Standard Oil
Company has not even ''lookin" on
their list of stockholders, that they
are going to continue to sell their
machines through regular dealers
and that they do not propose to sell
three cars for $1,000" Thus another
lie is nailed, and we wheel-barrow
| and baby-cart pushers will continue
| to trudge along in the same old way,
| sides stepping the cars of others and
getting our real sport out of life
| from an occasional Whit of explOd
| ed gasoline as they pass. Automo-
biles will be in the same financial
class as self-playing pianos and T.
| bone steaks, and next year, just the
same as in the past, but walking will
continue to be cheap and good for

Seed Growers and the State Seed
Fair will be held.
1t is the purpose of these events to
give New Years impetus to the
campaign for better seed in Idaho.
1t is well known fact and one which
is fully recognized by the seed
markets of the continent, that the
quality of Idaho grown seed of all
kinds is the highest. Nature has
endowed the farmers of our State
with all the conditions of soil, sun
shine and climate to give plumpness
and quality to all of their farm seeds.
1t is the farmers part to see that his
crops are free from weeds, that they
are improved by selection and that
they are marketed to the best ad-
vantage. These questions will be
discussed at the Seed Growers Con-
vention by men who have made
themselves famous by their investi-
cations and teachings. Solutions
will be offered for many of the
farmers problems and an oppor-
ttrunity will be given for all to present
seed grain and weed difficulties
Ire body of persons deeply in
terested in these things.
All concerned in better seeds and
better markets for the same are
earnestly invited to send exhibits to
the Seed Fair and attend the Con-
vention. For information and
premium lists, address J. w. Ses-
sions, Pocatello, Idaho.

LIVESTOCK TRAIN
VERY POPULAR

"a Moscow, Idaho, Dec. 20 On its
jeturn from the Clearwater and the
l,Camas Prairie section the University
of Idaho livestock special arrived
here at 12:45 this afternoon and
stopped for an hour of demonstra-
tions at the Northern Pacific depot.
The demonstrations were witness
ed by what was estimated to be one
of the largesc crowds that has
visited the train at any one of its
halts. No less than 700 people,
most of whom were farmers and
stock raisers from the surrounding
country gathered on the station
platform long before the train ar
riaved and remained thru the entire
hour.
Since Tuesday morning when the
demonstrations opened at Sites the
University train has visited d diff
ferenttowns and demonstrations have
been given before more than $4,000
people. At number of the stops
the attendance reached as high as
700 and at no place was the train
met by less than 200 people. Both
the livestock and the home eco
nomics features of the special have
enj Dyed great popularity.
