letters asking them to supply motor

which he will send to the post offices.
Last season 100 boats In the riv-

Obituary.
JOHN HENDRICKS.


John Hendricks, a resident of Rock
county for the past sixty years, died
Friday afternoon at his home in the
city of Evansville. While Mr.. Hen
bricks health had not been good for
several months, his rather sudden death
came as a shock to his many friends
throughout Rock county.
He was born at Auburn, New York,
April Is, 1843, and came to Rock county
in 1856, locating in the town of Porter,
where he lived until 1903, when he
moved to Evansville and resided there
until his death. A good portion of his
life was spent on farm in the town
of Porter. He was a lifelong demo-
crat and always consulted in the coun-
ellis of his party.
He was married to Helen Montgom-
cry of Evansville on March IL, 1874,
who survives him. Besides his widow
he leaves to mourn his death two sons
and one daughter: Claude j. Hendricks
of Milwaukee, John F. Hendricks of
Blue River, Wis, and Mrs. Nellie Hol-
lister of Henderson, MINI. One son,
Fred, died few years ago, just as he
was arriving at manhood's estate.
Funeral services were held at st.
Paul's church in Evansville Monday
morning at 10 o'clock. Interment was
made at Maple Hill cemetery.

Shocked by 80, 900 Volts and Receivers.

A dispatch from Montour, Iowa,
states that Thursday Orson P Willard,
manager of the local telephone COM
pany and of the Montour plant of the
Iowa Railway & Light Co., was up on
an electric light pole Wednesday re-
pairing one of the transformers. His
wife stood near by watching him work.
Suddenly he screamed, his body stiffen-
ed and he dropped to the ground. A
current of electricity, $4,000 volts
strong, had passed through him. Mr..
Willard was believed dead, but an hour
later he recovered consciousness. Ply
sicians say he will live. When Miliard's
wife started toward Willard, when he
fell, she tottered and fell beside him,
dead. The shock of witnessing the ap-
parent electrocution of her husband
caused her death, according to ply
sicians. Mr.. Willard is a brother of
Mrs. H. S. Swift of Edgerton, Wis.,,
and Mrs. Willard is sister of Mr..
Swift, also of this city.
Mr.. Swift and his sister, Mrs. Parks,
left Thursday evening for Iowa to be
present at the funeral of Mrs. Willard.
