All records for deaths for the first
quarter of the year were broken in
1916 according to a report recently is
sued by the state board of health. The
increase in mortality during this per-

mortality among elderly people, due
to pneumonia, influenza and kindred
diseases of the winter season. There
is marked decrease in the deaths un-
der one year of age, an increase where
the age is from one to four years, and
from 60 years and upwards.

Deputy Conservation Warden Julian,
and the odor from the dead fish is so
strong and pervading as to make it
almost unbearable to people living in
the vicinity Samples Of the water
have been sent to Madison in an eff

In order to definitely determine the
strength and other mechanical prop
critics of hemlock timber in structural
sizes, the forest products laboratory
at Madison is now testing large
number of joists and large stringers.
Tests have been made on small, clear
specimens, but up to this time none
have been made on large pieces con-
tanning ordinary defects of commercial
material The timbers being tested
were furnished from the Northern
HemlOck and Hardwood association.
They were selected and graded by a
representative of the laboratory and
before testing each is graded by
representative of the association. The
data thus obtained will furnish bas-
is for recommending proper fibre
stresses to be used with hemlOck tim
bers and will also afford an OppOr-
unity for Judging the efficiency OF the

In a lonely spot on the farm of An
drew Gunderson, located ten miles
west of Beloit was found the body of
Rudolph Walvig, searched for since
early in April when he disappeared.
Earl Reynolds, aged 26, and Archie
Fowler aged %, were held in the Rock
county Jail in connection with the
crime, Fowler having been trapped
into a confession. The young man
claimed that Reynolds committed the
crime, but he had told many con-
flicting stories. A Milwaukee detec-
tive was placed in the cell with Fow-
Ter some days ago under the pretense
of being a prisoner. He eventually
wormed a partial confession out Of
him, after several days of exchange
of condolences. Fowler said that
Reynolds overheard he and Walvig
talking about the purchase of the lat
ter's automobile on Saturday, April
s, the day of Walvig's disappearance.
That evening when Walvig and Fow-
Ter were returning from the farm of
Andrew Gunderson, ten miles west of
Beloit, Reynolds forced Fowler to
stop the car and then shot Walvig
through the right temple. Fowler
said he did not know Reynolds plan
ned to do this.
They then wrapped the corpse in an
automobile blanket and put it under

The friends of DR.. j. NJ. Gross, pas
tor Of the Methodist church, deeply
sympathize with him in the great loss
which he has suffered in the death of
his mother, Mrs. Mary Gross, who
passed away at her home near Wythe-
vile, Va, one day last week. Mrs.
Gross had reached her 83rd year, and
was the dearly beloved and honored
of all who knew her. The news of
his mothers passing has brought
deep sadness to DR.. Gross, but he
has the satisfaction of many sacred
memories he gathered on the occa-
sion of his visit to her a few weeks
ago. On that occasion, he was called
to her bedside by the news of her i'll
ness, but was able to return home
leaving her much better and stronger,
and in the hope that she would remain
with her loved ones for yet some
years. The Star joins, his other
friends in sympathy for the good doc
tor.

THE TOLOVANA DISTRICT

Summer freight rates of S120 ton from Fairbanks to Tolovana and winter rates never less than 800 have failed to handicap the new mining camp to any great extent, says Isadore Stein, Fairbanks merchant who is a guest at the Northern en route to San Francisco, says the Seattle Post Intelhgencer of July l. Despite these high rates there are about twenty goodslzed companies already operating, and consider able machinery has been taken in. "The Tolovana is getting better right along he said At first it was thought that it might be just small camp but the more it is worked the better it looks. There are about 1000 men there now, and there will be more this summer. What IS chiefly needed is a good road so that the freight rates may be cut down. Even with this handicap several big outfits have equipped themselves with the latest mining ma chinery."
 MT. Stein says that Fairbanks Is marking time waiting for the roads to the coal fields to be open "The most optimistic figure that it will be at least year and half before we can have coal laid down in Fair banks" he said Until then mining will be at a standstill There was great deal doing on the railroad work when l left. A number of piers have been constructed at the river and Commissioner Riggs IS working a force of men on the rght-ot- way"
