has let the cou tract to T. f. Mack
miller for furnishing the concrete
blocks and erecting the superstruc-
ture of the new town hall, and Mr..
tMackmiller put a crew of men at

the contract calls for the erection of
the building, excepting the roof.

weeks providing the weather con
ditions are favorable,
The home Of Daniel Beaton caught
fire Tuesday forenoon about 1l:3O
o'clock. and the building and some
of it's contents were damaged by
fire, smoke and water. The timely
arrival of help who applied water by
pals saved the further damage
which would have resulted from a
general flooding of the building by
the fire department..

since the last farmers institute was
held in this vicinity, and believing
that the farmers of Iron River and

week and forwarded it to Supt. Nor
cord. The institute will be held
during the winter months at a time
when the work on the farms is slack
and the farmers will have time to
spend day or two in hearing a
discussion of subjects of vital inter-
est to them.

St, Joe Trimmed Them With Ease b.
Score 8 to 1.

The Kaws were unable to hit with
men on bases while the Drummers
punched their hits and won the sec
ond game of the series by the score OF
to 1. The Kaws got just as many
hits as the visitors but Sterzer was
tight with men on bases and wouldn't
allow them to score but one run.
The Kaws' only run was scored In
the fifth inning when Wakefield beat
out an infield hit and scored on Coch-
rams three base drive. The visitors
started the game by getting three
led off with a double and Fox beat out
an infield hit. George Watson hit to
the infield and Rip scored. G. Watson
and Fox attempted a double steal but
Fox was thrown out at the plate. Pat
terson followed with a two base drive
and scored George Watson. Britton
went out on a fielder's choice, sending
Patterson to third and the latter scored
on a wild pitch.
The Kaws looked dangerous in the
same inning. Wakefield led of with
a two base hit but was thrown out
when trying to stretch it to three bases
Cochran followed with single and
Forsythe was safe when George Wat
son dropped his fly in right field.
Koerner sent Cochran to third and the
latter was thrown out at the plate a
short time later. Koerner and Forsythe
worked a double steal, the latter going
to third. Tallion ended the inning when
he flew out to George Watson.
Barney McGrath frightened up after
the first inning and did not allow an
other hit until the sixth inning. On
that occasion, Patterson led of with a
walk, and scored on Britton's two base
hit. Tallion loafed on the play, al
lowing Patterson to score. Davis
showed Britton over to third on a field
er's choice and he scored on McGees
error off Schangs fielder's choice.
Rip Watson led of in the seventh with
a double. Fox beat out an infield hit
and George Watson and Patterson both
walked forcing Rip to score. Britton
singled, scoring Fox and G. Watson
and the inning ended with the bases
full.
The visitors got two hits in the
eighth inning but couldn't score and
they were wasted. Score:

Every disturber of the peace in Europe

his consistent efforts for peace. That
Was not manifest in his talk while en-
peror: as. for example. in his telling Net
before peace and that the lives of a mill
lion men were nothing to him.

paragraph from procla nation of Ma
poleon. issued in 1.-The hundred days be-
fore Waterloo: II have given up the idea
of the grand empire, of which, in fifteen
years, / had only laid the foundations
Henceforth the happiness and consolda-
ton of the French empire will be the sub

And he said again, in that same period:

twenty years and the sacrifice of twenty
millions of men. In any case. l need

each side of a track.
The red-starred twilight must have
appealed to one of two women who
were going along with the briskness
that means escape from wearisome
