After a contest extending over two
sessions of the legislature, the pres

pension bill. There is but little doubt
but what every teached has her own

ALASKA IS BEST

 That Alaska Is the best section of the West, and Juneau the Vests best city. is the conviction of Walter DO Long. purchasing agent Of the Alaska Gastineau Mining company who has returned from a trip through californ- Ia and other Pacific Coast States.
 "It would be impossible for me to live in California or elsewhere in the States after my experience in Alaska, " said Mr. DeLong, eand my recent visit has demonstrated that more clearly than ever There is no section of the country that offers the opportunities to capable and industrious young men that Alaska offers. and to my mind tho outlook for Juneau is greater than that for any other Western city"

SILVER MEDALS FOR
 TREADwELL AID TEAM

TREADwELL. Oct. g. - A letter from F. W. wolnin. Of the U. S. Blu reau of Mines to Superintendent P. R. Bradley referring to the recent first aid contests in Fan Francisco. and list showing the standing of ali the teams. has been posted on the bull tin board at the Treadwen club.
 The letter congratulates the Tread well team for the excellent showing made and states that silver medals for each member of the team have be exchanged for the bronze medals awarded at San Francisco. The stand ing Of tho teams were as follows: -
 Homestake Mining Company. ss.
 Nevada Consolidated Copper Co.,. sss.
 Bunsen Coal Co.,. ss.
 Ray Consolidated Copper Co.,. 95.6-
 Alaska Treadweu. s5.6.
 In the tie contest for fourth place Ray Consolidated beat Treadwell by small margin.
 Mr. Bradley stated this morning that too much credit cannot be given the Treadwell team when the circum- stances of tho contest arc taken Into consideration. ITO give you an idea of what tho Treadwell team was up against said Mr. Bradley, you must realize that they had very little edu- cation in the work compared to the other teams. They were up against the best contest specialists in the United States. mean by that, teams that devote all their time to contest work and who are coached in the work by the Bureau of Mines which runs an instruction car all over the mining districts of the United States.
 "The Treadwen team won over such teams as the Anaconda team. This team is made up of men chosen through elimination contests from practically all the mines in Butte. There were nine teams entered from California and they held a prellInin- .ary contest for the purpose of enter ing the finals. None Of them were anywhere near Treadwen in percent ago. And furthermore. three of the four teams ahead Of Treadwen had special training from the Bureau of Mines. My opinion of the reason for Treadwen's fine showing is that we have Q superior class of men in the work.
 q hope" said Mir. Bradley, @that the Treadwen company will be able to send team to the National con- tests in the States each year"

TAKEN TO SANATORIUM

w. P. Briscoe, young man who
has made his home in this city for
about a year and a half, part of
which time he was employed as
brakeman on the 500 Line, was on
Sunday received as a patient at the
state tuberculosis sanatorium at
Wales About three months age he
was operated upon at st. Michaels
hospital in this city, where he was
cared for for nine weeks. Recently
he went to Sheldon, Rusk county,
where he formerly resided, but a
change for the worse in his condi-
ton made it advisable for him to
go to Wales. Arrangements were
made by local people interested and
he went there from Sheldon Satur-
day night. Mrs. NJ E. Bailey, of
this city, a friend of the family, ac-
companied him from here. The
young mans mother has been a pa
tient at the state sanatorium for
the past year.-Stevens Point Jour

EARLY DAYS IN WISCONSIN
A Picture of the Ancient Seas

Prepared for the News-Budget by
the Geology department at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin.
At the bottoms Of the seas were
many of the beautiful stone lilies
now found in the rocks of southwest
ern Wisconsin. These were not Ill
les at all, but III reality were little
animals growing at the top of slen-
der stems. They were dainty crea-
lures, waving gracefully backward
and forward with living animals we
should say had many delicate arms
whose motion caused the water to
carry very minute animals into their
mouths, for the mouth of the stone
lily was very small.
But perhaps the most common ami
NAL We should have seen was the
trilobite, a strange fellow that left
no descendants. If We compare him
with living animals we should say
that he looked most like the cray
fish. Indeed the trilobite was relat-
ed to this common habitant of the
stream He was very different from
the crayfish, however, because he had
no "pincers," and his broad, flat head
and tail looked very much alive.
No picture of the ancient seas
would be complete without the finny
folk. There were great numbers Of
them here too. Some were armored
with huge bony plates and carried
large jagged spines on their backs.
They were cruel creatures, relent-
lessly devouring their less protected
neighbors. Their mouths were filled
Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1915-04-30

with big crushing teeth, against
which the thin shells of smaller
water folk were no protection to
their owners.
All these have long been gone
from Wisconsin, and have left only
shells and skeletons to tell us of
their presence Since the withdraw
al of the last sea millions of years
have elapsed, and were it not for
records in other parts of the CONT
nent we should be most ignorant of
many thousands of queer beasts that
followed them, and likewise passed
away. In many parts of the United
States We have records of great
swimming lizards, huge dinosaurs,
and even flying reptiles and birds
with teeth
1t was not until the ice age that
Wisconsin again took up the record.
Then the life was greatly changed;
but still not like that of today. In
the lakes and marshes and the
stream washes that were formed
then, many skeletons were buried.
There were skeletons of large deer
with enormous antlers, many flesh
eating creatures, and even enormous
elephant-like creatures, the mann
moths, and the mastodons AS a rule
a tooth, a portion of a tusk, or a few
fragments of bone They are not
rare, however, and complete skele-
tons are not lacking. But the picture
of these animals OF the ice age is a
story in itself.

PUT A BET ON HIM

Don't poke fun at the boy who
comes in from the forks of the
creek, with seed in his hair and
mud on his face, patches on the
north department of his pants, and
just one gallus on. He may look
seedy now, but ten years from now
he may be president of some bank,
pastor of some church, judge of
some court or physician to some peo-
pie. Just because a boy who lives in
town, wears two kinds of socks,
parts his hair in the middle, sucks
at a cigarette, curls his hair on his
mothers curling tongs, and has a
daddy with spondulix to burn, that
is no sign that he is going to run
this country in the future. Wen put
our money on the sound, sane and
sensible boy from the forks of the
creek.-Ex.
