GEN. JOFFRE WILL
BE HIGHLY HONORED

PARIS. Dec. &c, Ills p. m.-The
government has decided to raise Gen.
cral Joffre 10 the dignity of Marshal
of France in recognition of his emf
nent services to the country. A de-
cree nominating him will be SUBMIT
ted for the ratification of parliament
as soon as possible.
The title of Marshal of France has
fallen into disuse since the establish
ment OF the third republic.
A bill. in. 1873. regulating the army
grades, retained the rank, but speci-
fled that the conditions under which
If could be conferred should be fixed
by a supplementary bill. That bill,
however, has never be proceeded with.

Snringer's Show Splendid.

Saturday was the last day for filing
nomination papers for county offices.
Four candidates for the republican
nomination for sheriff have filed, B. J..
Springer of Edgerton, Robert o. Whip
pie and Geo. B. Merrill of Beloit, and
Alvah Maxfeld of GAINESVILLE. The
northern portion of the county will sup
port Ben Springer very generally and
with the help he is expecting from
GAINESVILLE and surrounding towns his
chances for the primary nomination are
considered excellent. Edgerton espec-
tally will stand Loyalty by their home
candidate and every voter here might
appoint himself committee of one to
do little missionary work among their
friends and help boost Chief Springer
into the office OF sheriff. The primaries
are less than month away now but
there is plenty of time to put in some
good work for our townsman. By all
rights of geography the sheriff. office
should go to Edgerton this time.

Crops Hit By Hail.

Crops were seriously damaged by a
hail storm north and east of Madison
Thursday. Reports from the country
are that large tracts of tobacco and
corn were practically ruined by the
wind and hail. 1t was impossible to
estimate the damage to the crops
Thursday night, but people who passed
through the storm swept sections late
Friday afternoon said that the loss to
the farmers would be many thousands
of dollars.
The most seriously affected area lies
northeast of Madison. How large an
area was damaged could not be learned
but there are reasons to believe that
hail fell over stretch of many miles
wide Token Creek, Sun Prairie and
vicinity reported the most serious dam
age, farmers living in this vicinity re-
porting that the crops of tobacco and
corn were practically ruined.
